^^That ep was on WoST and there's a scene of Dorian and Viki in Viki's office. I remember thinking how much Robin's speech pattern was like Nancy Pinkerton's in that Daytime to Remember clip.

That is also probably my favorite of her wigs she wore on the show.

I have always loved that top picture, Carolyn's hand is so camp.

Oof. I totally forgot about Travis.

Yup, I have one of those old Daytime Magazines where she is still referred to as Lauren very close to air. It was Morgan's idea to change the character's name. She thought there were enough Laurens out there already, Lauren Hutton, Lauren Bacall, et cetera. Plus she said she liked men's names (Lauren is actually a man's name Morg, but I getcha) and she thought Sydney had a better ring. It also worked out nicely as Nick called her 'Syddy' or 'Syddy girl' which was sort of a clever homophone.

Totally. She was maybe a *little* too old but I could see her as Hilary (Sela Ward) in Emerald Point too.

Delta Burke was offered the role of Katherine Wentworth (Morgan Brittany) on Dallas. She had to turn it down as she was on contract for Filthy Rich (they were still waiting to see whether or not it would become a mid-season replacement... it did).

I was going to mention the Emerald Point connection, and indeed with the swampy bongos and whatever instrument that is that sounds like a rattlesnake (a maraca-like sound, Knots used it too). My mom would be swooning at that Mark Harmon pic.

The second season theme is more lush and sophisticated, more Savannah. I think I prefer the tawdry twang of season one. The shot of the mansions between the train tracks and the water is really... I dunno what I want to say, romantic? A striking image. Having an expensive home near loud passing trains isn't exactly customary but its nothing if not elegant in this instance.

Vanessa had an even more severe afro version on The Cosby Show.

Well I guess she was involved with Asa if that pic is any indication. I wonder how long she was on.

Who did Chita Rivera play again? I always thought she would have been a good choice for Dorian's mom (if not a little young) before Marian Seldes was cast and I read that she'd already been on the show.

Brooke's dad was Phoebe's brother, Ed English. She believed his wife Peg English (aka Cobra, you can Google all that ) was her mother but her mother was a homeless woma named Jane Dobrin who she found after Ed and Peg died. Jane also died.

Love the pic of Brooke in the red leather and Erica in the leopard. So late '80s/early '90s. Barbara even had a jheri curl looking deal for a while.

Ski lift for the simple fact that I can see what is going on and fresh air. Share a Greyhound bus ride next to someone with breath that smelled like throw-up or feet that smelled like salt & vinegar potato chips?

I think she is supposed to be Peter Pan, but yeah, OOF!

Christine Jones as temp Viki.

I totally agree. I loathed Rachel's descent. As a character I thought she deserved much better. I feel the same way about Jessica and Marty but at least Marty brings the lols. I really took to Daphnee Duplaix because Rachel had been so poorly recast and I felt she was the closest to bringing the character back full circle.

I wasn't gonna say nothin but *makes two finger eye-to-eye gesture*... when he first went exploring with his hair my mom said his little twists looked like "mouse titties".
