Well, I'm not sure which episode I had overlooked, but I have corrected my accounts.

Each day during the episode I write down everyone in it, and after it is over I add the totals to the monthly totals on my marker board. So I'm unsure which episode I left out that Nora was in, but for some reason I forgot to add an episode of her's to the board one day.

But problem solved...I have added it, and she now has 16/20 episodes for the month to date with 3 left to go.

Thanks again for bringing it to my attention. ;)

No problem Scotty! ;)

I usually keep track of how many days that Nora is on. LOL! Hope this trend continues with Nora having so much airtime. I think this will be the first time in ages that Nora will probably be in the top 10 for airtime during the month of August.

It would be great if this trend could continue....right now Nora is tied with Natalie and Blair for second place. You know who is in the lead (as usual) with 17.

Todd and Miles each have 15, and Dorian, Michael, and Rex have 14. And Marcie has 13.

Those of some of the highlights for August with 20/23 episodes aired so far.

Today was another great example of why Nora was sorely missed as DA. She was better than ever before today discussing Lindsay's situation with John. And making it clear to him that she doesn't want anyone thinking that she would setup Lindsay because of their past history. It's really enjoyable when the show does follow history with the characters IMO.

I'm glad Nora pointed out the holes in the case againist Lindsay. I like the fact Nora made sure Johns knows if there are holes that people just might feel Nora set up Lindsday due to their past. When it comes to the law Nora leaves her personal life out of it and does her job. Nora's being objective in the matter, but IMO Bo isn't because he feels for Lindsay. It's funny that Bo is willing to do something to help lindsay but wouldn't even try to help Marty.

Forgot to add Bo saying since Lindsay has changed there is no way she could have committed such a senseless crime is going to comeback to bite him.

I'm a little behind in my viewing but are they really making Lindsey the killer? Because that bites...I mean, I don't even remember her sharing scenes with Spencer! Plus, that would make her a double murderer, since she killed Sam. Why couldn't they have just made it be Paige, which would have made infinitely more sense, plus they were writing her off anyway and this could have been over already. Seriously, any steam the Truman murder story had was lost several months and suspects ago. <_<

It's not THERE yet, but there is obviously some effort to put it there. (lol! 3 there's in one sentence!)

Lindsay has been mesmerising; John just looks like the unlikeable, hypocritical piece of [!@#$%^&*] he is and has always been.

The best part is that things appear to be moving forward. There is some kind of light at the end of the tunnel, even if that light flickers a bit here and there.

Time to turn the flickering candle into a high beam.

^^Yeah, John's hypocrisy about Tommy was bothering me when he first confronted Michael about it and spouted on about the law and what's right. I kept thinking, wait a minute. He covered for Natalie when she tampered with evidence in Spencer's murder. He tried to actively and repeatedly stifle Marty from confessing when she believed she killed Spencer. Yet his own brother had to beg him for the same kind of consideration? I repeat, his own brother had to beg him and he still acted like he couldn't spill the beans fast enough. I guess he protects only women he wants to sleep with. <_< You know, I neither particularly liked nor hated John before that but I just found him so cold towards a brother he claims to love and who was so desperate.

So, Truman's murder is not 100% solved and closed yet? Sigh. :rolleyes:

    • Might be a long shot, because I can't find a thing online about it, but I was Googling the actress that played Nell Cleary (Frank's cop friend that went through academy and then became cops together during the entire Brent Lawrence storyline). To my surprise, she passed away in 2011, at the very young age of 45. I can't find her obituary or anything online about her passing, but I'm curious, does anyone know what happened? Her IMDB only shows a few other acting gigs post-Guiding Light, so she didn't make a career out of it, but I thought she was a great actress in her role as Cleary. Her name was Mary Peterson.
    • What was Ruth Martin's association to the Thornton family?  I only remember the daughter that dated Tad, and she had a buxom mother.  But, did Ruth date David Thorton before Joe?

      Why didn't Steve respect Monica and Jeff's decision?  I get he's Jeff's father, and that's how it came out, but I don't like the ethics of the story. A stranger gets to make life or death decisions over a wife's demands?   I hope Monica secretly never forgave Steve's chauvinism.
    • Question: Jon-Michael Reed's review of 1977 is up in the retro soap section.  It includes a fleeting reference to comedic scenes between Jeanne Cooper and Julianna McCarthy regarding “Kay's would-be beau, Ralph the Plumber”.  Could someone please fill me in will more details? I forgot that Kay and Liz were friendly before Jill stole Kay's husband.  And the thought of Liz playing a comedic scene blows my mind, because I only recall her being dour both in demeanor and wardrobe.  
    • I said this on Twitter on Friday when Leslie mentioned Chicago, so perhaps she might be related to one of Anita's bandmates. In addition, Leslie did say she grew up listening to The Articulettes too.
    • There was a scene in the past week or two with Leslie looking at some papers and mementos, which included an invitation or souvenir from Alan's memorial service or funeral -- it was dated as November 2024. Me just guessing but it seems to me that Martin's nightmares about the accident are from something longer ago than November.
    • ah thanks! do you know who the third one was in the blonde? the fifth one i know ive seen before in the brown wig but i forgot, and then ive never seen the psychic one before lol
    • I felt for Ted early on but as the story unfolded it has changed my opinion on him. To know he was cheating while his wife was struggling to give him a baby is a lot to deal with. Plus, this happened ages ago and still he's paying Leslie off and threatening her to leave town.  What really caused me to lose him in this episode was how even though he was busted, he still refused to take responsibility and come clean and the way he talked to Martin and Eva was terrible. To tell Smitty he better get Martin away from him when that is his SON who he used to cover up his affair? That is true dog behavior. Ted seems upset he got caught but I'm not seeing the remorse I would need to want Nicole to forgive him. I'm curious how I'll feel after Ted gets to talk to Nicole but I need him to fix it with the rest of the family as well.
    • I'm sorry. I well remember Jake doing Doris but I have no independent memory of the story around it.  Krystle with a K Lake, sure, both Tony the Tuna stories & NOT.  And, Jake also impersonated a woman named Bunny Eberhardt but he didn't know she was a woman so there was no drag. This weekend I re-watched Kevin & Mac, GH, and my strong impression is exactly what it was when I watched it in real time: They did not let them look very pretty. Of course, I think the best ever drag on GH was Alexis posing as the Q butler.  In a different use of drag at AW one Halloween, Jensen Buchanan went as Charlie Chaplin & Judi Evans went as, I think, a male gypsy.

    • I'm not sure who wanted them to dump REUNION & instead do a "Dallas-like daytime show" but it seems that it def came from NBC to AW through Rauch, so, yes, it absolutely could have been his (cough-another-stupid?) decision!!!! I've just begun the new Lisanti book so maybe I will find out. (I waited for the kindle version to come out.) I would apologize for being so critical & so sarcastic, too, but, well, I'm not actually sorry!  Silverman was NOT a friend to AW.  And, I believe the critique is on point & deserved! I wanted to explain why I think the timing is off for the 90 minute show to be a reaction to the GH Luke & Laura story & its hype. Because, for sure, networks & production companies did react to it! The first 90 minute show was Monday, March 5, 1979.  And, there was some unknown amount of time ahead of that with people arguing about it & then, planning it.  The Luke & Laura wedding was mid-November 1981.  They were on the run from Frank Smith & stayed overnight in Wyndham's Dept. Store early August 1980.
