Wonderful episode, Oct 28, 1985, just posted on Youtube notable for a few things:
I believe this is Scott McKinsey's first daytime soap director debut; IMDB shows he started directing GL in Dec 85. The prior episode 10/25 was directed by John Zak who had been in LA directing Santa Barbara
Introduction of Domini Blythe as Estelle - the best thing about the show in it's final 15 months.
Lloyd Battista (Ray from Love of Life) plays Rivera.
I watched SFT during the final few years and Gary Tomlin started off strong, turning around Paul Avila Mayer's disastrous six months as head writer.
Same - it doesn't bother me when it's there, but does bother me when written into dialogue or takes away from emotional/important scenes.
Same! Love Kat vs. Eva. I love a catty little relationship that eventually, slowly turns into some kind of acceptance/love for each other.
It is completely illogical, unless Salem University, the City of Salem, the state Salem-land, and the federal government of Sa-landia have also gone bankrupt.
But, I am trying to put that aside, because for storytelling purposes, it makes sense to have a prize that the audience can see.
This and Nicole spraying Febreze don't bother me. When they write it into the dialogue is when it's a no for me.
I'm for Kat vs Eva every day of the week!
