Members ~bl~ Posted August 31, 2014 Members Share Posted August 31, 2014 There was a short time during the Summer Olympics in 1988 where NBC aired Santa Barbara as a 30 minute show, but typically it was 60 minutes. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members amybrickwallace Posted September 1, 2014 Members Share Posted September 1, 2014 SB was only the second soap to start at an hour, after Texas. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members slick jones Posted September 25, 2014 Members Share Posted September 25, 2014 So, I was on Le Site Francais Santa Barbara, and they have pictures of some characters that they don't have names for. There's a character named Lemory Davis, an old former soldier friend of Cain's. I swear it's Ernie Hudson. Does anyone know of Hudson appearing on SB? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members amybrickwallace Posted September 30, 2014 Members Share Posted September 30, 2014 Sad news - Justin Gocke, who played the role of Brandon Capwell the longest (1987-92) and won and Emmy for it in 1989, passed away at age 36 on September 8th. http://avpress.com/obit-archive.php?obit=31897785 Here's what A Martinez said on FB: "Justin. This acting business can be a difficult thing to deal with for anyone. But especially for children." The cause of death, as per the Santa Barbara Home Page, as well as other sites, is listed as an apparent suicide. I couldn't find anything to confirm that. So, so sad. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members sungrey Posted September 30, 2014 Members Share Posted September 30, 2014 Hey Amy: Got a few things here, the first couple being updates on previous posts. The actor playing Lemory... I remember the character, but the IMDB does not list Ernie Hudson playing this role. (That doesn't mean anything... it's possible they don't have a record of his being on there.) Sad to hear about Justin. Always sad to hear when a former SB actor passes away. First Dane earlier this year and now this. Never saw Justin in anything after SB, but it sounds like he wasn't the happiest person. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members sungrey Posted September 30, 2014 Members Share Posted September 30, 2014 Wanted to post this separately... speaking of former SB actresses, one of my favorites (Stacy Edwards) is teaching acting in Hollywood! The place she's involved with is called Keep it Real Acting. Jeff Kober (I want to say that's his name), who used to be on China Beach, also teaches there. I hope this means Stacy hasn't transitioned full-time to being an acting coach. She'd be damn good as a regular on a TV series if someone would take a chance. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted September 30, 2014 Members Share Posted September 30, 2014 Sad to hear about Justin Gocke. I know a lot of people enjoyed his work as Brandon. I'm sorry his life ended the way it did. I hope he is at peace. Jeff Kober still does a lot of acting so perhaps Stacy will too. sungrey, I'm trying to remember - did I once post some Julia Campbell articles for you? I think I have one or two more. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members sungrey Posted September 30, 2014 Members Share Posted September 30, 2014 Hey, go ahead and post them! I don't think you did it for me, but I was happy to see Julia get some nighttime work too after the shaky way her character was treated on SB. She still acts occasionally. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members amybrickwallace Posted September 30, 2014 Members Share Posted September 30, 2014 The show I remember Julia Campbell most for, oddly enough, was the short-lived A Whole New Ballgame with Corbin Bernsen, which aired in 1994-95 while the real-life MLB strike was going on. Thank you, sungrey, for the updates. The year started with the passing of Carmen Zapata (Carmen Castillo), who in a sad coincidence, passed away the same weekend as A Martinez's real-life mother. Then Dane Witherspoon passed at the end of March. Now Justin Gocke. So, so sad. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Wendy Posted October 2, 2014 Members Share Posted October 2, 2014 Holy crap! :-( This is so sad. And he was great as Brandon and had a great rapport with the cast, especially Robin Mattson. I wonder if they ever stayed in touch. This is heartbreaking. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted October 2, 2014 Members Share Posted October 2, 2014 Any Louise Sorel fans - I'm going to post a 1969 TV show with her in the videobash section. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
