Here is how the first month of Sunset Beach went. Too much Meg. Although I mostly loved her, it's too much. Every other character had quite enough appearances. The only thing I didn't like was the low amount of appearances of Kathleen Noone as Bette Katzenkazrahi. She was always enjoyable and amazing.

oh Sunset Beach.. those were the days.

Of course it was all about Meg. The beginning was bascially about "Dorothy" meeting "SB" and Meg coming to Sunset Beach.

BTW, this means you have all the episodes from the first month, right? By any chance did you keep the end credits for the episodes?

I had a few files on my comp, but the end credits were cut. Which is sad because I loved the ending credits.

During February-March-April, Meg wasn't the leader anymore. She was always third or fourth. February went to Cole, March to Paula (the rape story) and April to Olivia.

There is one thing I can provide----Director credits for the entire 1999. It was all registered on the US Copyright Office site.
