I think it's in the new SOD. I think he is asked which is his favorite eppy...and he replies the christmas show. I think he says something like people are tense and not smiling behind the scenes. Or something like that. I remember reading it somewhere online.

The other thing that I have noticed is that some of the Nuke fans are hinting that Van is gay so shouldn't have any problem kissing a man at the GLADD awards. I'm sure he appreciates his "fans" outing him. *sarcasm*

Word. It should have been Levin. Kevin was a good character with an established background and family. The actor who played the role was a solid actor and he and Van had chemistry.

ATWT should be embarrassed about how they have treated Martha, but I bet they don't give a damn.

It would have made for a better story too. Holden and Lily objecting to Luke being with Kevin because of his drinking problem. Luke and Kevin could have sneaked out to see each other against Lily's wishes(like Lily did with Holden behind Lucinda's back). It would have made for better drama. We had seen the bond Luke was having with kevin. So no need for the audience to wonder or ponder why Luke loved Kevin. The writers were going great with a Levin pairing and then they messed it all up with Noah.

Thanks for the YouTube clip of Levin. It is great to see Kevin and Luke again. Remember Kevin's father and Holden had several fights over the drinking and arguing about who was the real bad influence so the tension between their parents was already in place. Ahhh, what could have been. TPTB can still rescue Luke from dull Noah by bringing back the character of Kevin and the actor who played the role if he is interested in returning.

Thanks, Soapsuds. What code do you use to embed the YouTube videos? After the back rub scene, I thought for sure that TPTB were planning to run with the Luke/Kevin romance. There was so much chemistry and story there to be explored between Kevin and Luke. Bwah.

    • Speaking of correcting dates, since you mentioned it above, why don't you go back to your Saturday post and edit it and replace your wording of "DAYS Ruth Buzzi 11-2-83"  with "DAYS Ruth Buzzi 11-1-83" and add a note that the video has the wrong date of 11/2/83 on it, and that the video is actually 11/1/83. 
    • If the show ever chooses to show any flashbacks of major Ted scenes, the Ted/Eva, Ted/Kat, and Ted/Nicole scenes would need to be re-filmed with nuTed. Since there have been hardly any Ted/Martin scenes with the CurrentTed, they have avoided the difficulty of doing recreated flashbacks with nuTed for scenes with Martin.  The only one would be Martin punching Ted after the anniversary reveal (unless there's something in the next few episodes). I agree with other posters that the fact that we barely saw CurrentTed and Martin interact, makes it less impactful to viewers to see Martin's outrage at the reveal. 
    • This makes me think of that famous quote from COOL HAND LUKE,  "What we've got here is failure to communicate." I did not bring up "apparently" to try to get across either truth or validity, but doubt. If I had been sure, I would have said something entirely different. But, I'm not trying to argue, I hear you & I will comply. Besides that, I will endeavor to word things differently. I am never against trying to improve. 
    • That’s been my main issue with his response. It didn’t feel that earned by what came before. Definitely needed to see more of the Richardsons as a full family unit prior to all of this.
    • Bingo! I thought the exact same thing. Martin's anger feels so out of place, because we've hardly seen him interact with his parents. Vernon and him have more of a father/son relationship and we've seen their dynamic more fully play out. While obviously Ted and Marton are father and son, it felt a bit empty because we haven't really seen them bond or truly connect in any scenes.
    • Leslie inferred over 20 years ago, so Eva and Kat are over 20 at least 
    • As it happens, 40 years ago this week, ABC and CBS revealed their 1985-86 fall schedules. NBC revealed theirs the week before. ABC's would end up changing. The original plan for Tuesdays was to have Diff'rent Strokes lead the night, with He's the Mayor at 8:30, followed by Who's the Boss at 9, Growing Pains at 9:30, and Moonlighting at 10. There was some surprise over MacGruder & Loud not getting renewed, but it was considered part of Aaron Spelling's declining influence at the network. Yes, Dynasty was still a hit (for a while longer), but Aaron's shows steadily took up less and less of the schedule. Fall 1984: Seven hours, five of which were new programming (Dynasty, Hotel, Glitter, Matt Houston, T.J. Hooker, The Love Boat, Finder of Lost Loves; MacGruder & Loud aired at midseason, by which time Glitter was gone.). Fall 1985: Five hours, two of which were new programming (Dynasty, Hotel, The Colbys, Hollywood Beat, The Love Boat). Fall 1986: Three-and-a-half hours, a half-hour of which was new programming (Dynasty, Hotel, The Colbys, Life With Lucy). Fall 1987: Two hours, none of which was new programming (Dynasty and Hotel; HeartBeat premiered at midseason). Fall-winter 1988: Two hours, none of which was new programming (Dynasty and HeartBeat). This led to Variety's infamous shady headline in spring 1989: "Aaron's Dynasty Over"
    • I hope for a multi-year renewal, too! This is the only show I've been excited to see the next episode in forever. Considering their demos are quite decent. the initial episodes showed there is still an interest in daytime, and it has helped to boost the rest of the soap line up at times, it should be around for a while.
