Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted August 22, 2008 Members Share Posted August 22, 2008 OK, so I was just looking at old closing credits on youtube (because I'm a loser, OK!), and I noticed something that was really weird. In 1985 on AW, Gillian Spencer was listed as Co-HW, but she played Daisy Cortlandt on AMC consecutively from 1980 to 1989, so I wonder how the hell could that happen? How was she allowed to act for an ABC soap, while write for a P&G/NBC soap?

Administrator Toups Posted August 22, 2008 Author Administrator Share Posted August 22, 2008 I have no idea, but thanks for posting the link because I didn't know about this youtube user! More end credits! Woohoo! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Contessa Donatella Posted August 22, 2008 Members Share Posted August 22, 2008 That was in Aug. 85. In February 85, she's shown as a Writer, too. (I believe that this is Tom Eplin's first day. If not it's another one I've put up.) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ijSAuJ5to60 It's one of the clips I am unhappy with because after a particular youtube update they suddenly shrank to this absurd narrow view. At some point I want to convert the files & re-upload. On newer clips I have converted them before uploading. I would embed it here but I suddenly realized I don't know how to here & I am too tired to learn right this second. (In the 90s I was really lucky to get a great quality VHS of DAYS, AW, SB on the same day) in Feb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members R Sinclair Posted August 22, 2008 Members Share Posted August 22, 2008 Wow! August 23, 1985... almost 22 years ago to the day and still I can clearly remember things from back then. I totally digress... I would doubt that Gillian Spencer was on contract at AMC at this point. She could've been recurring by then. Remember, this was 22 years ago because contracts, short term, long term, recurring, negotiations -- all of that -- became public fodder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Contessa Donatella Posted August 22, 2008 Members Share Posted August 22, 2008 I remember that Jerry ver Dorn talked about when he got his first contract that he & everyone else were amazed because no one, simply no one, was on contract then! I didn't get the impression that he was a total newbie to GL at that time & he began at GL in 1982. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members skiman12082004 Posted August 22, 2008 Members Share Posted August 22, 2008 Toups, not sure if you already knew this but the four headwriters for GL were credited at the end of today's episode. I was home today so I happened to catch it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How to embed: In the bottom left of a compose window, you'll see a drop down menu that is set to "HTML off". Change it to "HTML Automatic line break mode". Then, just paste in the "embed" code that Youtube (or any other service) provides. Presto-chango. I love it . And I so love that you are here!

Members Sylph Posted August 22, 2008 Members Share Posted August 22, 2008 Yeah, I like it, too. Shirl is now on her own, I guess. Where is Diva, the person who invented the Lynn Antoinette nickname. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted August 22, 2008 Members Share Posted August 22, 2008 Toups, Janice Ferri Esser is in Y&R's credits for Monday's US episode. Sylph must be happy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Sylph Posted August 22, 2008 Members Share Posted August 22, 2008 As expected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dm. Posted August 22, 2008 Members Share Posted August 22, 2008 Weintraub and Freiwald in the same episode? They're both script writers, and Eric always writers with Linda Schreiber. How is that possible? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted August 22, 2008 Members Share Posted August 22, 2008 Someone fed me the info, I thought they got it wrong too. He listed all three of them, but Janice is also a scriptwriter. I can say for certain Esser is back in the Y&R credits though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
