@JermsieHorgan's character on The Doctors was Dr. John Morrison, a psychiatrist who was married to Althea and was desperate to hold on to her. Some consider John a villain but I don't, lol. He kept things interesting anyway.

I wonder how Retro is doing with digitizing the 1980 episodes. We haven't had an update in a couple of months.

I can't wait to see it. When Retro tv starts airing them. I think this is late 81 early 82.

It is. That's Lori-Nan Engler as the final Greta.

Althea Davis (Liz Hubbard), as imagined by Nick Bellini when he was looking at a slide on his microscope.

So did I. I liked the Honeymooners/Streetcar Named Desire fantasy. Nick complaining about warm beer was priceless. 😂😂😂😂😂

ALL: Actual knowledge learned from soaps

Me too, from the time Jack lost Jabot to Victor through them getting it back, I was so invested and also felt like I understood the concepts, even if they were dramatized for effect.

After the last several posts I just remembered I learned about the viability of freezing sperm from the Y&R story with Victor, Diane, Nikki and Ashley. I had heard of the process before, but not the actual details about how long until implantation, etc. that story was so gross!

Thanks. Well unfortunately we wouldn't get the flashbacks but Beth Chamberlain worked well with others like Grant and Tina so I think it could have been convincing having her play off Vincent's returned Lujack. (the closest we ever got was Beth Chamberlain's Beth telling Reva Johnathan reminded her of Lujack-to which I say NO WAY!)

ALL: "Soapy" Podcast hosted by Rebecca Budig & Greg Rikaart

This week's guest is an especially juicy one, GH casting director Mark Teschner. I didn't realize he'd been the show's casting director since 1989 (or that he was brought over to LA from Loving after that show's EP, Joe Hardy, got the EP position at GH). I'm only halfway through the episode, but they've already shared some interesting behind-the-scenes info. Apparently Jacinda the escort was only meant to be a three-episode role, but apparently TPTB thought that she had amazing chemistry with Rory Gibson, so they brought her back. And then Rebecca Budig mentioned that her stint as Greenlee was only meant to be short-term, for about two months, but then she clicked with Josh Duhamel so much it became a long-term role.

Now as I think about it more abstract....I learned some stuff about human relationships. I learned that till death do us part usually means a year or two... In many cases 😂

This is how every comment by this poster is. I’m employed though, so I can’t relate to seething over other strangers comments on a soap opera message board all day.

I think the whole Kendra thing was tied to Shiloh and Dawn of the Day because everything on the show was back then lol.
I remember the name Kiefer Bauer and eyerolled that. The abuse story was a pretty good idea in theory, but it had major flaws. It was way too violent, showing a bloodied and beaten Lexi Ainsworth getting knocked around by a huge man that looked 10 years older than her. Then it made Kristina look bad because she became a liar and accused Ethan to protect Kiefer. And in end it became about Sonny and Luke's pain over the whole situation because Sonny saw his mom get beat up and Sonny might have to kill Ethan lol. That would totally ruin Luke/Sonny's bromance.
Then in conclusion Alexis's notoriously bad driving skills were on display when she ran Kiefer over.

No wonder I barely watched in those years.
I just remember "Kiefer Bauer" being the nadir of Guza's fascination with macho primetime TV - he or someone clearly named the guy after Kiefer Sutherland and his character from 24 (Jack Bauer). Like, c'mon.

Lol! I swear they brought Keifer sister back maybe 10 years after Kiefer died and she was Alexis's fitness trainer with a revenge plot. I don't think the plot lasted more than a few months. Let me see if I can google her name. I want to say it was a K name too.
ETA-Kendra. It was in late 2019. She tried poisoning Alexis with protein powder then kidnapped her and tried to run her over with her car. Lucas then accidently killed Kendra by running into her car before she could kill Alexis.-
That's from GH wiki. I remember vague details, but the entire plot sounds like a fever dream when I read it.
