Members KMan101 Posted March 10, 2007 Members Share Posted March 10, 2007 Let's start one and keep this one going! I keep tuning in and out ... what time frame are we on? I know it's 1991, but what day/month, if anyone can help out? SoapNet claims it's January 18th, 1991 but I don't believe them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Max Posted March 11, 2007 Members Share Posted March 11, 2007 I'm pretty sure that what is currently being shown on SoapNet was originally from April 1991. That's because these AW reruns have usually been shown 15 years and 11 months after they first aired. (Note that it was originally shown exactly 16 years before the first airing; however, the Iran-Contra hearings caused about one month's worth of pre-emptions back in the summer of 1987.) Anyway, what do you folks think about Lucas? I happen to really enjoy this character, who--thanks to Felicia's love--is now completely reformed from the shady person he once was. (In fact, most fans believe that Lucas is the true love of Felicia's life.) John Aprea is a great actor, and he and Linda Dano have terrific chemistry.

Members DrewH Posted March 11, 2007 Members Share Posted March 11, 2007 The month has to be April or May because isn't Matt taking Jenna to her prom? And the cast aren't wearing heavy coats for it to still be winter. I love Carl Hutchins! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members KMan101 Posted March 12, 2007 Author Members Share Posted March 12, 2007 Yeah, I think it's May because of the prom thing. Hmm. I went to the Another World Homepage but couldn't narrow down the week. Soapnet is WAY behind in their recaps! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DrewH Posted March 12, 2007 Members Share Posted March 12, 2007 I always thought that SoapNet should've started airing AW in the same timeframe that it's currently airing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members juniorz1 Posted March 12, 2007 Members Share Posted March 12, 2007 I LOVE the stories going on now, but we're about to lose Anne Heche & Cali Timmins, quickly followed by the great Julie Osburn. It's pretty much downhill after that..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DrewH Posted March 12, 2007 Members Share Posted March 12, 2007 I can't wait for Judi to debut. I hate this Paulina. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members KMan101 Posted March 12, 2007 Author Members Share Posted March 12, 2007 I still remember Anne's first day on AW back when SoapNet first started airing reruns. Sucks we're losing her, although obviously we knew we would be. I didn't realize Calli and Julie left like literally around the same time. That blows. I can't wait to see Judi as Paulina though, back when Paulina had personality and spark, not the pod Carlino wife Jill Farren Phelps and her cronie writers turned her in to. Julie Osborn is fantastic. Why on earth was she written out after finally returning? Anyone know? And how much longer do we have Swajeski for? She's brilliant. I think she's going down as one of my favorite headwriters. Why GL never gave her the spot is beyond me. She'd do wonders with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members KMan101 Posted March 12, 2007 Author Members Share Posted March 12, 2007 Nevermind ... I found the week we're on, I think: From AWHP (http://igs.net/~awhp) APRIL 8-12, 1991 Carl told a disbelieving Kathleen that he returned to Bay City to clear his good name and insisted he is not out to get revenge because she testified against him years ago. Carl sent flowers to Rachel, Felicia, Kathleen, and Donna, who are all convinced that he is plotting against them. Donna's feelings were hurt when she learned about Marley and Jamie's engagement after the fact. Matthew put off Lindsay to spend more time with Jenna. Although Jenna was upset Matthew wasn't able to escort her to her prom, she was the belle of the ball. Sharlene and Frankie dug up more background information on Taylor, who tried to get closer to John while Sharlene was checking out a lead on Taylor's past. Kathleen admitted to Stacey that she still has feelings for Cass. Cass insisted to Frankie that be loves her, but she pointed out their relationship has changed since Kathleen's return.

Members KMan101 Posted March 13, 2007 Author Members Share Posted March 13, 2007 Okay, found out the answer. Monday, March 12th's episode originally aired on Monday, April 15th, 1991 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members KMan101 Posted March 13, 2007 Author Members Share Posted March 13, 2007 BTW, I'm going to try and do Episode Counts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members KMan101 Posted March 13, 2007 Author Members Share Posted March 13, 2007 Guess I'll just chat with myself in here ... I'm actually working on a website (not that I have the time, but I am) that will have daily screen caps and my on captions added on to them (some snarky, some nasty, some funny ... lol). I'll post the link soon. I'm also going to work on daily recaps (since SoapNet is months behind) and episode counts and possibly, if at all possible, video clips (I'd likely just add them to youtube instead of wasting my own bandwidth).

Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted March 13, 2007 Members Share Posted March 13, 2007 I guess we're in for the overrated Jensen Buchanan soon? I never could stand her acting ability and I still consider her the worst Vicky/Marley. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members KMan101 Posted March 13, 2007 Author Members Share Posted March 13, 2007 * Anne Heche last airs as Vicky on July 1, 1991 (which is slated to air on May 28th, barring any pre-emptions). * Jensen Buchanan debuts on July 25, 1991. * Cali Timmins last airs as Paulina on July 15, 1991 (which will air in early June, around the 11th or so) * Julie Obsorn last airs as Kathleen on November 21, 1991 (so we have many more months to go with her) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members juniorz1 Posted March 13, 2007 Members Share Posted March 13, 2007 Actually, there's a few months between. Cali left late July/early August 1991, while Julie sticks around until October/November 1991. Obviously, I'm dreading seeing Judi, and am savoring every Cali moment I have left. The true Paulina. Osburn is MAGNIFICENT. So is Kathleen, who I had always loved, but particularly in this run. Her dismissal was pretty much storyline-dictated. It's certainly unfortunate and a loss. What ended up happening (and as you watch, see if you feel the same) is that this storyline ended up showing the audience just how much they'd fallen in love with Alice Barrett's Frankie and Frankie & Cass as a couple. When that happened, TPTB didn't have much use for Kathleen anymore, as all things McKinnon had been phased out by then (save Jake). So..... I believe Swajeski is through late 92/early 93. Peggy Sloane takes over after that and while she does an admirable job, you could certainly see the difference onscreen. AW never truly recovered after Swajeski left, though they did have a renaissance in their final year, under Chris Goutman. Oh lord. Even Cynthia Watros and Rhonda Lewis were better than Buchanan. She's dreadful and KILLED the character of Victoria Love. Heche and Wheeler were both DYNAMITE as Vicky/Marley. Probably why they both received Daytime Emmys for their portrayals, while Buchanan did not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
