Santa Barbara Discussion Thread

There's something ironically-fatal-attractiony about the Flame scene.  She comes home to her Batgirl lair with the secret elevator, and then to get comfy she slips off her pumps and puts on a teddy that goes up her tush and another pair of heels.  It's like, girl, you've already got him locked in a room, you don't need to dress up for him.

Also, why don't soaps ever include the contractor who was hired to build the jail in the basement?  Certainly, some dude is going around Santa Barbara talking about how much money he made by installing a fake wall. Or, are we to assume it was a DIY project?  Either way, how did Flame afford it?  They hadn't gotten the money from Robert yet.

At least Lucy Coe just let down her hair, she didn't have a whole secret floor in her cottage.

For 500 bucks, Marcy Walker had better do the huchi cuchi dance.  That is a wild fee for VIP seats.  Especially when you look at the venue, the only $300 seats are in the last few rows.  So, is it really VIP if 75% of the audience has access?

Here are some things I have been reading lately about our favorite soap opera ‘Santa Barbara’.

First is that Marcy Walker will attend the 40 anniversary of the soap and for me this is great because we haven’t seen her in years.

Also I’ve just watched this interview of Robin from 2007 saying her acting on Santa Barbara was really bad.  But I enjoyed a lot her interview even if I don’t like the santa Barbara segment.

Also I just watched the trailer of Here where they have de aged Robin Wright and she looks similar to her santa Barbara days.

Wait What??? Just to see Marcy in public after ages is going to be such a charm....Hope all is well with her, she didn't attend the All My Children one did she?...Wouldn't have been as special without her, A has been wishing for this for so long in all his interviews...Hope there are videos for us fans ...

According to thebump(dot)com

Channing is a gender-neutral name of English and Irish origin. It’s derived from a 17th-century Irish last name, Ó Canain, which comes from cann, meaning “wolf cub.” Wolves are known to be loyal and intelligent, which bodes well for baby as they find their path and pack in life.

So, there's some literary symbolism in the name, as he was the favorite son of CC (a wolf of wall street).

FYI, obviously wolf of wall street came out years after SB, but you get my point...

In my repeat viewing of SB am struck by how much ahead of its times this soap was for the 80's especially on television, was too young to comprehend when it got aired initially,

They have included the below (albeit not accurately at all times) social issues in their story lines,

1) LGBT acceptance bias (Channing/ Lindsay)

2) Interracial dynamics (Cruz/Eden)

3) Child abuse (Christie storyline)

4) Rape (Well...)

5) Date Rape (When No means No)

As I mentioned some of the above story lines were not perfect but full marks for trying.

    • That was the original point of me sending you her 6 airdates, so now with those, and the link to the daily episode guide I've provided, that should help you more easily find the additional Ruth Buzzi scenes. I will always repeat myself when it comes to defending my data that I've taken decades to research and compile. But, as you pointed out in a recent post, I am kind, so at least I will do it with you in a kind way as opposed to the usual social media way most people do with just getting rude/nasty. That's not my style, as you correctly pointed out earlier this week, and never will be.  So, all is well!

    • Ambyr Michelle continues to be *that girl.* She’s just a star, period. Elevates every scene she’s in on the sheer strength of her emotional realism and charisma. Can sell any dialogue. I wish the show veered away from the B&B-style scripting. TMG/Leslie’s tirade stood out, I suppose, but she’s getting a bit mustache-twirly. And I wish DD had more to do in that episode than stand and sob.
    • Well, that was down to CBS being weak and not being willing to just pulling the plug entirely. They didn't want to commit to cancelling the show in case they needed it for their schedule basically; plus they kept showing that they were willing to make cuts if needed to be. 
    • I'm sorry but clearly what I've said is not satisfactory to you. I have now read what you have to say, twice. As it happens, my interest at this point is looking at other mislabeled files to find this other Ruth Buzzi content. I do not see any point to each of us repeating ourselves, so I will leave it here. 
    • It seemed to be your intent. coming into a thread I started and making multiple posts saying my data was wrong. In the next paragraph you say "Of course, I was suspicious from the very first instance where what I saw & heard did not agree with what it should have.  I'm very glad to know why." That certainly didn't stop you from immediately saying the data was wrong, until I provided additional receipts. Why did you not check the daily episode guide (for instance, this one for the 1980's) I posted for the world to see for exactly this reason...to help confirm airdates: http://daytimeroyaltyonline.com/days-daily-summaries-1980-1989-t15361.html? That is what you should be checking BEFORE you make any posts in the future like this, trying to suggest something from my data is incorrect. You could have also messaged me and asked me why your dates weren't adding up with what the correct data is. I would have fast forwarded through that video you posted, spotted Roman and Hope and immediately have told you that was the 11/1/83 episode.
    • Jason, just let me say that it was not my intent to any way impugn any of your data  or research. I'm very sorry if it came out that way. Obviously the person I got these 4 November episodes from has mislabeled files, multiples, which I was certainly unaware of.  When I am editing it is all about what I see & hear. Later, I find time for greater reflection.  Of course, I was suspicious from the very first instance where what I saw & heard did not agree with what it should have.  I'm very glad to know why.  If you find you are no longer interested in the edit, that is fine. I have no ego in this. I did it only to share it.
    • I feel like Vernon and Anita need to not be hypocrites and try and take the heat off Bill in this case. It's clear that the family used him as a fixer and especially knowing he helped with Martin's situation, they need to either be quiet or support him. BTW...with Vanessa being in the hospital for food poisoning, am I the only one who thought Shanice was gonna say she's pregnant or had an STD? The only reason I say STD is because she hasn't had any memorable sex partners, but I definitely don't believe she just had food poisoning.
    • Yeah, I mean I know that the name still pertains. I just laugh at it not now being called Arizona Dust, but, I admit it simply does not have the same ring to it. Above, that is interesting that Arizona had already come up before the crisis. 
    • Anita vs. Leslie, bring it!
    • Leslie and her family are from Chicago? Anita's background also includes being a former Chi-Town native? Might they connect this and go somewhere with it?
