20 years ago today (January 15, 1993), NBC aired the final episode of Santa Barbara. The following Monday, NBC returned Scrabble to the daytime lineup and premiered Scattergories. Both game shows would end a little less than 5 months later on June 11, with Caesar's Challenge replacing Scattergories on June 14.

Joe and Augusta have amazing chemistry, and they both have such presence. Not to mention that Dane WItherspoon and Louise Sorel are just stunningly gorgeous specimens.

I don't understand how the show could not see Witherspoon's appeal.

Pardon my French, but HOLY SH!T to the Robin Strasser answer. Does anyone else think Bridget had her in mind to play PAMELA CAPWELL CONRAD?!? Oh what could have been. Strasser, Allan, and LaMcConnell?

Sounds DELICIOUSO to moi! [/Marlena delaCroix]

Oh and THANK YOU Carl for posting that!

Bridget said she was interested in Robin Strasser and had JUST the role for her. That was during the time they were casting Pamela. There's NO WAY Bridget could have been speaking about any other character in her answer. (I'm not talking about the last quote, I'm talking about the answer Bridget gave to wanting Robin Strasser and having put feelers out for her- it clearly HAD to be Pamela she wanted her for).

Had that happened, the Dobsons may never have been ousted.

    • Holly's final big story was the Sebastian mess in late 2004.   Vanessa and Matt were promoted to regulars near the end and were heavily recurring prior to that starting around 2007/2008.
    • Keith has a softer presence, but it would have helped to see him be more aggressive or proactive in protecting them instead of standing around like a mannequin. A man the audience should be hoping and wishing gets back together with his wife. Nicole needs a new husband!
    • She needs to learn to be honest with her husband about her lusty interests because being sex positive only works if you're not cheating on your spouse.

    • Very disappointed in the writers in the way they are screwing with Nicole, Ted,  and Kat to make Leslie remain viable. So many holes everywhere.
    • Somebody brought this up elsewhere which emphasizes why this NuTed appears as such a weakling. Why is Kat doing what HE should be doing? And that's everything he can to rid him and his family of this crazy woman. Kat is doing all kinds of things she shouldn't do but now I understand her more. She can't count on her father to eliminate this woman because he's a wimp. He's been too busy inviting her into his home and serving her drinks and offering her invitations to birthday parties. WIMP!!!!

    • This is (maybe) overly simplistic and nonsoapy, but Doug needs to go to Gamblers Anonymous, to deal with the addictive neurological excitement hits that gambling gives him - and which control his life. Vanessa needs to go to therapy to find ways to remain healthfully lusty and sex-positive, but to stay away from anyone who would demean her.
    • YT keeps commending GL clips to me. I discovered Kathleen Cullen was on in Christmas 1987. Was there any talk of making it permanent  or was this just a special visit? I wish they had made the visit permanent. I liked her chemistry with Grant Aleksander.  
    • I'm not sure it's as unpopular as you think.  I just think the show knew they were in a bind, and needed a proven couple for the viewers to invest in. Trying to reunite Vanessa and Ross had just failed in 87. I don't think Ed and Holly's affair was well received, as Simon and Garrett had a brother/sister chemistry. Enter Billy and Vanessa, who give you history and an out not to try and do a Josh/Reva/Billy triangle, which would've really wrecked the relationship between Josh and Billy. I'd have been ok with trying Vanessa/Ross again, and doing a Vanessa/Ross/Holly/Billy quad for a while. I hated Nadine. HATED. She had to be the most insufferable also-ran before ATWT's Julia Lindsay. This is where I wish I knew Roger's history better.
