OLTL- What happened to the character of David Renaldi after Michael Zaslow's death? Did they ever actually say anything?

GH- How did Laura's mental illness turn into a physical one?

Days - How many of Stefano's brainwash victims are walking around Salem anyway? It's like watching a Bela Lugosi movie.

LOVING

----------

Exactly what went down between Doug Marland and Agnes Nixon?

AFAIK, Sedrick, Marland wanted a grittier, more blue-collar feel for LOVING, whereas Nixon envisioned the show to be as satirical as AMC.

OLTL- What happened to the character of David Renaldi after Michael Zaslow's death? Did they ever actually say anything?

I don't think they did. IIRC, Zaslow's widow, the late Susan Hufford, asked the show not to incorporate his death into the storyline.

GH- How did Laura's mental illness turn into a physical one?

I wondered about that, too. I think Guza decided to add that little twist; otherwise, they would have had to come up with a (valid) reason why Laura was lucid again but not in PC w/ Luke.

RE: DAYS' Stefano DiMera - I could be wrong about this, but ... wasn't he responsible for the Raven Feather killings? Did they ever prosecute him for that in any way?

How old is Erica Kane

Not that it means anything now (thanks to Little Miss Continuity Fack-Up, Kendall Hart) but Erica was supposed to be 17 or 18 when AMC premiered in 1970. (As the coffee-table book points out, she once claimed to have attended Woodstock, in '69 ... though, since she was supposedly pregnant around that time ... unless, Kendall was the infamous baby who was allegedly born at the festival?)

Another unanswered quesiton i've always had it why are all Soap towns full of white folk?

Two reasons:

1) Skittish network execs and sponsors who are afraid that including a significant amount of non-Caucasian characters on these shows would turn away the Caucasian audiences.

2) As crazy and nasty as the white folks on soaps get sometimes, would you want to be around them, if you were a minority?

Yeah he was the mastermind, although Andre was the actual slasher. I'm not sure if there was eer proof to the police that Stefano was behind it, and also during that time he wasn't a regular citizen like he has been the past several years. And he was gone for years after his "death" in 1985, so it might have been forgotten.

Wait a minute - Andre and Stefano were behind the killings ... and Andre didn't try to use that tidbit of information as blackmail during the recent Vendetta storyline?

Oh, Hogan! A golden opportunity, and you let it slip through your hands.

Thanks, daysfan, for the info!

Why are soap cops sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo stupid?

Because, the minute they exercise any intelligence in solving crimes, the story's over.

My mother and I, in fact, used to joke how Viki and Tina always seemed to solve every crime on OLTL, while Rafe Garretson was paid to sit on his a$$ and do absolutely nothing.
