Thanks everyone!

I just got the final results for my local race (with the absentees counted):

"J. "Kay" Gibson took 171 votes in Clarkson for the position of commissioner. Robert Vincent had 151 votes. Scotty Gore took 170 votes. Franklin Keith Higdon had 159 votes and Thomas "Tom" Livergood had 98 votes. Gibson, Vincent, Gore and Higdon will return to serve on the commission in January."

Y&R: Josh Griffith steps down as executive producer

This is definitely good news. Someone just doesn't give up the EP title no reason. With Steve Kent gone, and now Josh no longer having the EP title, Sally is now the top dog at the show (in terms of being at the studio, obviously she has studio/network execs to report to). I predict Josh will be gone before the year ends.
Dream scenario: Sally brings in Natalie Minardi Slater and Janice Ferri Esser as Co-HWs. LOL

in other news: I still have a hard time believing Elizabeth is letting Ric put it in again after all these years. That's crazy to me. I can't really comprehend it. Are we sure they're not just going on trips where he tries to put on Next's "Too Close" and she just smiles and says goodnight?
I like how Sonny is like “Sidwell has proven tough to beat.” For real? Sonny, you and Jason used to bang with dudes every 4-6 weeks on these docks like you were filing quarterly taxes. Sidwell takes brunch with Lucy and goes to Aladdin Night. He lost a poker game to Lucky. He is not that threatening. The most he has done is pan-fry Michael and Sonny has somehow let that slide. Would not happen BITD!

PAUL REISER'S HOLLYWOOD ADVENTURE 1989 NBC PREVIEW BETTY WHITE, HASSELHOFF, BOB HOPE

I would love to see that 1971 material, but the footage is probably gone forever. I sometimes forget Holly came from wealth. By the time she was married to Roger in the late 70's you almost get the impression she is clipping coupons and thrift shopping to take care Christina (Blake).

It would be interesting to see those pilots. I wonder if Ted's estate will release anything he may have in his archive if he still has ownership of his own footage ?

From what people have said I think Holly was meant to be a neurotic daddy's girl. Didn't she hate Leslie?
I wonder if this ever came back up when she and Leslie were married to Mike and Ed.

🤣. They could have had a running gag where her nose almost get slammed in various doors and dropping things as a throwback to her Room 222 days.

Stanley was on the show for two years and it seems he preceded Holly by a few months.Stanley was murdered late in 71. Not sure how Holly and Stanley interacted but from the type of character Stanley was I don't think it would have been a close one.
Didn't Stanley divorce Barbara early on, leaving her with 3 kids to raise?
It appears that Adam came on in 72 after Stanley died.

ALL: Those big, iconic soap moments

Y&R: Scenes I never thought I would see. In reading old synopsis/summaries of Lorie finding about Leslie's pregnancy, you kind of picture Lorie seeing Leslie step from the shower and Lorie coldly/smugly saying "Just how pregnant are you Leslie". while being somewhat composed. When I finally got to see the scenes OMG WOW ! Those summaries does not do them justice. Lorie goes ape crap and has a screaming meltdown at a cowering Leslie. I kept waiting for Lorie to start physically assaulting her. Good thing Lucas comes in and pretty much nearly puts her in a headlock while she's still raging.
