I remember seeing him and thinking that this guy does not look like a RH guy at all. He looked like a soap actor.

Maureen Garrett (EJ Ryan) in a 1985 Crayola markers commercial at approx. 9:13. I figured this commercial is in the GL board but didn't recall seeing it posted here during this partial RH episode. The entire episode was already up without commercials.

 

 

 

I'm sure that episode of "Ryan's Hope" was originally aired back on August 21, 1985.

Thanks for the extra info.

I think at that time in October 1984 on WCVB-TV Channel 5 in Boston, "Ryan's Hope" was airing at its new time: 11:30AM EDT, with "Newscenter 5 Midday" airing at 12PM EDT, and the other daytime soap "Loving" was airing at its news time: 12:30PM EDT.

Finally got back to reading my old Soapnet notes (and later a few YouTube notes)

Some more things I didn't remember-

This was from when Max was looking at slides to get info on Jill in 1984l

Jill went to the University of Michigan (and then Yale Law).

Roger's full name was Roger Harlan Coleridge.

Faith's name was harder to to make out -- looks like possibly Faith Lana or Faith Lara Coleridge.

Judith's maiden was Grayson.

In those first episodes of Bess and Maggie it was said Jill was Jillian Elizabeth Coleridge and Ed was the one who suggested the name Jillian.

In Ryan's kitchen, during Frank's campaign, where TV Interviewer Jeri Jerome said Maeve's name was Mary Maeve Colleary Ryan. A few months later, Maeve was telling the story of her first confession and the Mary Maeve was said then, too.

I believe it was mentioned a few times that Mary was named Mary Maeve after her mother.
