Members Vee Posted December 18, 2024 Members Share Posted December 18, 2024 I know they're both doomed, but Ed Coleridge and Nell Beaulac are kind of adorable together early on. Such a cozy show. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted December 18, 2024 Members Share Posted December 18, 2024 (edited) I love Nell. One of my favorite soap characters and such a great story arc. Ed's not bad but I mostly just notice his wig. I wonder if Faith Catlin was ever asked if she played up any incestuous undertones in her relationship with Ed.

Members John Posted December 19, 2024 Members Share Posted December 19, 2024 I liked Catherine Hicks and Karen Morris Gowdy as Faith but feel Faith Caitlin got a raw deal 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ryan Mason Posted December 20, 2024 Members Share Posted December 20, 2024 When I watched Ryan's Hope from the beginning for the first time on SoapNet, I really liked Faith Catlin and thought it was refreshing that they had a female character that was more of a nerd. Then I absolutely loved Catherine Hicks's take on the character; I found her really natural and likable. So then to see Faith Catlin again after that when SoapNet started from the beginning again was super jarring. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Khan Posted January 1 Members Share Posted January 1 (edited) When you think about all the wonderful people we lost in 2024, it really reminds you that no one - no matter how rich or famous or INfamous they are - is immune to death; that it is so important to make each and every day we have count; and that our ultimate purpose in this life is to try and leave the world a little better than how we came into it.

Members DRW50 Posted February 2 Members Share Posted February 2 Not sure how recent these interviews are (they do mention the oral history) but they are interviews with Tom Lisanti and Louise Shaffer. I should warn they sound like they were recorded while being buried underground. Please register in order to view this content 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Franko Posted 19 hours ago Members Share Posted 19 hours ago Our beloved benefactor strikes again, this time with a late July 1984 episode. I'm certain it's from the week of July 23-27, and believe it might be from Friday, July 27 (notice David Hartman plugging next week's episodes of Good Morning America, as opposed to the next day's).

Members DRW50 Posted 17 hours ago Members Share Posted 17 hours ago (edited) Thanks @Franko. Looks like the first 7 minutes are "new." Then we start getting material that is up on freeflyur's channel as 7-27-84. Is this the full episode? Wasn't expecting to hear such a horribly depressing backstory from this Pru character (I had never heard of her) ...and of course as is often the case on soaps, especially from this period, she is written as if she just got out of Song of the South or Lil Abner. And I see Rick has a horribly depressing, melodramatic backstory too. Grant Show eventually became an OK actor, but he was never suited to handle this type of material. Who is the audience for all this trauma? It's always nice to see Cali Timmons, even if her whole episode amounts to flashbacks and wandering around a room. I've never bothered to watch Robin Mattson's Delia because, frankly, I have no real interest in the show by this point, but she's not bad at all. Beyond people probably just not caring about seeing Robin as Delia after years of seeing her as Heather Webber, I wonder if people had no use for these same old stories for Delia - even when they brought Ilene Kristen back in 1982, they didn't work. Only when they allowed for some changes in Delia in Ilene's last return did things click into place. The scenes with Dave waiting on Maggie are so oddly filmed, more suited to a PBS project than a soap. I kept wondering if he was going to get stabbed. And the music...honestly the music in general is on overdrive in this episode. I can't imagine how people who watched back in the day felt. The whole thing is very hollowed out. There isn't even a Ryan in sight, aside from Pat, briefly. It's always amusing to see the differences in quality between the original film shots for the opening and the cheaper video replacements. Who is the leg lift lady? Is that Pru? Edited 17 hours ago by DRW50 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
