Members DRW50 Posted November 25, 2018 Members Share Posted November 25, 2018 This is a little Ryan's Hope pre-union, beyond being a beautifully written and acted piece of television. Louise Shaffer is in the hair color ad around 36 minutes, and Bernie Barrow plays the justice of the peace. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members j swift Posted January 4, 2019 Members Share Posted January 4, 2019 (edited) I had a rather specific RH memory flash today that I'm hoping someone can validate. When Jill and Seneca divorced there were references to the fact that New York did not have "no-fault" divorce laws so they had to agree on whether to report adultery or mental cruelty. Jill got an interesting monologue about how the divorce laws inhibited women's civil rights. I did not follow RH during the SoapNet re-runs but I think it covered this period of the story. I would appreciate any references to Jill's speech. Edited January 4, 2019 by j swift 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members danfling Posted January 4, 2019 Members Share Posted January 4, 2019 I am confused about who Ed Evanco played on Ryan's Hope. Was he Jack's friend who moved to New York City? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted January 17, 2019 Members Share Posted January 17, 2019 Yes. He was one of a number of spoilers for Mary/Jack who just kind of disappeared (I think he left town quietly). He had one of the bigger impacts as a fight over him led Jack to his car crash, I think. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members safe Posted March 4, 2019 Members Share Posted March 4, 2019 (edited) Great interview with Helen Gallagher (Maeve) discussing her extensive theater career. This is from February 4th. She looks and sounds wonderful at 92! She talks about RH for about 2 minutes at approx. 43:00. She blames Agnes Nixon for the end of the show.

Members All My Shadows Posted March 4, 2019 Members Share Posted March 4, 2019 Wow, what a wonderful find! She's definitely a good time, and it's always great to hear soap legends explicitly say they enjoyed doing the work and would have kept at it for longer than the opportunity allowed. What she says about the timeslot change checks out with everything I've always read about the show's demise. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted March 4, 2019 Members Share Posted March 4, 2019 Thank you for finding that. Great to see Helen. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Khan Posted March 21, 2019 Members Share Posted March 21, 2019 It is shameful how ABC took away RH's time slot and handed it to a show (LOVING) that, in all honesty, never really stood a chance of succeeding at any time in their lineup. Bottom line: LOVING suffered constantly from lack of a strong identity, while RH had an identity that not even Joseph Hardy and Pat Falken Smith could diminish (despite their best efforts). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members amybrickwallace Posted April 3, 2019 Members Share Posted April 3, 2019 ABC never would have done that had Loving been created by anyone else but Nixon/Marland. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
