The "hot" brother looks so much like another soap actor. I can't think of who.

Here are the Savage brothers.

I guess they've totally given up on the pretense of Noah not being campy or femme?

Thanks for posting, Carl.

It's the infamous and mostly forgotten Cunningham sisters! Do you have any idea how that story ended? I wonder how soon after the Cindy abuse plot started. Jude kind of reminds me of Busy Phillips in some scenes.

LEWIS! Mandy's brother, who they'd go to turning into a rapist. I wish there was some Richardson family stuff available.

Kurt was cute.

Was Julie Tony's first love interest?

It's so sad to see that so much history from this show continues to be sorely underutilized. There is so much you could probably do with the Cunninghams and Richardsons, Tony's harem, etc ...

I looked in the Hollyoaks companion from 2000 but didn't see anything on Tom or Kevin.

There isn't much on Mrs. Cunningham's sleazy fiance either. Apparently they got married and then she found a lump in her breast. Nothing else that. There is a great little book called Stolen E-mails where he (I think it's him) reroutes various e-mails to people to cause them problems and gets more and more caught up in it.

Tony met and fell in love with Julie in the first episode.

Jude went on to become a very damaged character. I wish we could see this. Supposedly Bryan Kirkwood was thisclose to getting Davinia Taylor (who became sort of a pseudo-celebrity after Hollyoaks) back for Max's wedding to Clare, but it didn't happen.

Dawn seems like a likeable version of the Mary Sue type, sweet, but not too much of a pushover. I like that both sisters wanted the creep out and didn't feel bad about it. The guy playing the creepy stepfather to be (who had perved on Dawn when she lived at home) is now the boring as hell Owen on Corrie.

It was nice to see the Ibiza stuff, it was so much fun, just lighthearted and entertaining, yet not too stupid or condescending "comedy" like you often get now. The guys are so believable as friends. Tony is so sweet here. I wish the character still had some of that.

I've only ever actually seen Lewis in a few clips from a late night special, which, other than telling me he had a fantastic ass, were of little other use. It's weird seeing him here as just an ordinary guy.

A lot of the segments of the Justin/Becca affair that I've never seen are being put on Youtube. This is a good reminder of how brilliant Jessica Fox can be when she plays raw emotion and not the smirky stuff HO so often gives her.

It's completely working. There are lots of Stendan fans, who don't give a crap about Brendan's past history of beating the men he slept with, because now he's "in love" with Stephen. The Noah character may be dull, boring, effeminate and ugly (in certain viewers opinions), but he's not a self-hating and abusive homophobic manipulator. I don't want Stephen and Noah to get married and I certainly don't want to see Brendan "redeemed" so that Stendan can happen.

I just would like to see Stephen grow and develop into a man, who's at peace with himself.

He looks like he could be another "Ford" brother from OLTL.

    • I totally understand your sloths concern about it and I agree with you. Let’s hope the show plays it’s cards right.    Further comments about the last few episodes: - I liked that one of the attendees was filming the scene. That’s realistic. I wonder if the writers will follow up with that.  - Martin and Smitty trying to drag Leslie out was very heteronormative, so perfectly in line with them two as characters lol.    As for the future: it’s obvious the Duprees will come to accept Eva one way or another, but the rivalry with Kay should be here for the long term   On the topic of acting: the only bad actors I’m seeing are Ted and Derek. Tomas hasn’t proven to be either good or bad, so far, but he’s certainly mediocre and uncharismatic. He sucks the energy out of the scenes and I don’t see any couple of women ever vying for him. 
    • I’m trying to think which actors VW were working with at the time, and none of them had been there for a while. Even like Mac and Ada didn’t have that big of a part in Rachel’s storyline.  And Jamie was involved with all that movie stuff.
    • Brooke did ads before ATWT too. That probably helped get her the job. After ATWT she seemed to branch more into hosting, along with ads.  I think I saw Kelley in an ad or two, but you're right she wasn't on as much. 
    •   Thanks for sharing these. I wonder if Charles might have been in the running for Adam. I know Preacher was a bit of a bad boy at times on EON, but Neal seemed to be a step down, and Robert Lupone had played a similar part on AMC. Given the huge cast turnover at this point I wonder who thought they had been there long enough to go.  Laura Malone/Chris Rich would get a remote within the next year. 
    • Interesting.  It seems to allude to that statement that Warren Burton made around that time about some AW actors getting special treatment.  I wonder who was resentful about not getting to go. 
    • Good morning, boys!  I figured that it was time that our Gio was introduced into the hotness thread

      @ranger1rg I even included a close up of his face for ya!
    • Under all of Madonna's social media today there is this wave of negative, toxic, absurd comments by Lady Gaga fans telling her how Gaga surpassed her in concert in Copacabana. I mean... Who the hell cares? Why are these fan communities so freaking toxic??? I'm sure Madonna doesn't care... But still. Have some respect for M. Leave her social media alone. Go cheer Gaga and be happy. Why come and spew hate on M??? Crazy world.
    • FYI, again, Ruth/Letitia is not in either of these 2 episodes. So that concludes the 4 episodes I had from Nov. 1983. I don't have the October episodes.
    • Eddie has begun uploading the 1990 episodes. I'm so happy about that. I was mindfully taking a break till there's plenty of episodes I can binge watch when I feel like it. Now that 1989 is complete... I can't wait to press play on February 1989 and resume where I left off.
