Members Chris 2 Posted July 16, 2022 Members Share Posted July 16, 2022 Both of whom were born after RH had ended its run. Who knows - maybe RH inspired them. Dakota is still a dumb, soap opera name, especially for a man. Virtually no one in the 80s was named Dakota except on soaps. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Bright Eyes Posted July 17, 2022 Members Share Posted July 17, 2022 This is funny to me because a guy at my work is named Dakota. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members gimmetoo Posted July 17, 2022 Members Share Posted July 17, 2022 The name Dakota certainly made us hate him even more...and I think that's exactly what the writers wanted. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members soapfave06 Posted July 20, 2022 Members Share Posted July 20, 2022 Are the episodes prior to 1230 not available in the better quality? I started watching 1230 to see the much reviled Prince Albert plot but can't find the build up to the Belvedere Castle climax. Unless I was that bored, and I do love camp, I rather enjoyed the ending with Roger sitting vigil below and the rescue. I thought the fall was actually well produced and loved the added effect of Delia awaking as she began her fall below. I caught a few episodes in the 1170 range. Overall I enjoy the show, I remember loving Jack when I watched on SoapNet. I prefer Ilene as Delia but rather enjoy this one (Randall Edwards?) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members gimmetoo Posted July 29, 2022 Members Share Posted July 29, 2022 (edited) Lovely tribute to John Gabriel (RIP). Glad Alan included his daughters to provide insight into John the family man. No surprise: John was a total mensch — Louise Schaffer’s stories shed light on his generosity. Ilene made me laugh when commenting that she and John were just two of many Jews cast on the Irish Catholic Ryan’s Hope… Edited July 31, 2022 by gimmetoo 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members gimmetoo Posted August 4, 2022 Members Share Posted August 4, 2022 Of all the actresses to get their own one-on-one interview ?! But I would still jump at the chance to rewatch the Kirkland era... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Chris 2 Posted August 5, 2022 Members Share Posted August 5, 2022 Didn’t she play Kimberly Brady on DOOL for a while too? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members John Posted August 5, 2022 Members Share Posted August 5, 2022 Yes and Richard Burgi played her love intrest as well. I believe that CS left the show as Shane before AM became Kimberly 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DeliaIrisFan Posted August 7, 2022 Members Share Posted August 7, 2022 (edited) I mean, Muenker appeared on a ton of soaps, including on several as different characters in different eras. I'm sure she has a ton of stories to tell if she wants to go there. Wasn't it her Marianne on AW who had the abortion story (that was somehow tied to Harding Lemay's plan to have the character's brother come out, which the network vetoed)? As far as RH, Muenker was there for the waning Kirkland era, right: after Catsy, Hollis, et al had been written out, while Leigh was being introduced? I'm not sure she ever shared a scene with Haskell or Jones. I doubt she'll have much to say about a relatively brief role, almost 40 years later. I would be curious to hear (what if anything she knows/remembers about) why they recast the role, only to write the character out altogether a few months later. Was that always the plan? Did Mary Page Keller want to leave (I don't believe she started on AW until a little later) or were they "taking the character in a new direction"? And, if so, was that intended direction how Muenker ended up being used: as someone for Leigh to talk to for a few months when she didn't know any other characters, and a short-term spoiler for Pat and Faith? At least, that's all I remember of her from what's available on YT. Edited August 7, 2022 by DeliaIrisFan 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
