I am still trying to learn the name of a character on Loving. He was an African-American high school student who was the son of Corinth's Lt. Art Hindman. He was in class with the character that Luke Perry played. He did not know how to read, but he had been socially promoted every year despite the fact that he was iliterate.

I don't think these have been posted. I just discovered this channel with good promos like Tina disguised as a nun on OLTL.

I also get that feeling (even more) with that other dance clip at the bottom of page 43. It would have been different, at least.

Isn't it sobering to realize that the soap considered the closest to cancellation at that time probably had a bigger budget than anything on now?

Has anyone ever visited SoHo, and tried to find the building which was featured on The City? I was there around a decade ago, looking for the address -- and quickly found it didn't exist. Greene Street doesn't go down that far. So, I looked for the building anyway, since I knew it was in SoHo, regardless of the address. I was unable to recognize the building anywhere. How about you? Does anyone know the real address of the building? Any photos?

I'm almost certain it's 109 Prince Street, which I think is also 109 Greene Street (it's at the corner of Prince & Greene).

Go to this link and scroll a little over half-way down to the building under the "109 Prince Street" plaque: http://forgotten-ny.com/2012/06/prince-street/

When I was in New York I didn't bother looking for it because I had just assumed "Greene Street" was made up for the show. Only later did I realize there actually was Greene street and that the building was indeed on it. (I guess they used 212 because it's the New York area code?)

    • So Sonni would have somebody to talk to who she wasn't conspiring with (Will or Alan)? Alex kept telling Sonni how important her friends were...when she had virtually no friends. Instead they created loyal servants like Jane and Vera to give Alex people to play off of. They did that with Iris on AW, but Vivien was mostly there for comic relief Alex keeping Marah's paternity a secret was absurd. But I still love the scene between Alex and Alan where he convinces her by reminding her how they protected each other from their abusive father. Chris and Bev ATE that scene. Unfortunately, that took place only a few months before he exited the show...always thought they could have built on that, explored more how being Brandon's children screwed them both up. Maybe even used it as an explanation for the way their relationship could constantly swing from hatred to love. Instead of it being merely dictated by the plot.
    • The first one is Cass Winthrop dressed as Krystle Lake on Another World (not from his original creation of the character to hide from the loan shark Tony the Tuna, but at a romance convention trying to find out what had happened to Felicia who was missing). The second one is also Another World, Jake McKinnon as Doris although I don't recall what his purpose was.
    • I know there was one brief scene in the summer of 1989 where Lillian did mention Calla.. but in relation to her past relationship to Ross and it was to Roger while he was a patient at Cedars.  I think he was trying to pump her for information on Ross.. and for some reason, Calla's name came up.   I could see perhaps Beth mentioning that her mother Lillian was visiting Calla.. but not exactly giving any sort of details as to the going ons in Calla's life off screen.

    • They're neither great nor terrible AFAIK, but it is more a question of the streaming numbers in this day and age vs. actual TV airings. The Chibnall era reminded me much more of the crisis years, but I do think it's a very real possibility now as well due to the streaming bubble collapse affecting the show and its prospects.
    • ANYTHING to get her off the screen..she COULD have been interesting if she and Van had a few face offs..(there was a mild one of her going back to work...but I wanted something meatier "Bitch, I am Vanessa Chamberlain and I don't take advice from someone who followed the..career path you did!" I did like Alex's outright disdain for her.
    • Thanks @Vee for the commentary.    I haven’t even watched this season yet after  I couldn’t get past the couple episodes last season…like it was too Disneyified for my taste, although I did think it was a least better than the Chibnall era (but so is a lot of things). I’ll probably go back and binge it now. Hoping this season ends on a high note. I did read the ratings are terrible. As it stands I’m beginning to feel like what long time DW fans felt with S26 in 1989.
    • Yes, they are all on contract. Next.
    • I also never understood Alex's friendship with Sonni or keeping the secret of Marah's paternity.  Not exactly heartbroken about Ms. Sally being ushered to the Hereafter.
