Toni's father was named Paulo, (Italian loved Opera was an extra at the Met). Luke's birth name was Luke, as that is what his mother called him. Eventually everyone started calling him Luke instead of his previously used nickname Lew - I blame Eleanor.

The website for The Doctors subscription service is up.  So far, it only has the 1967-1970 episodes that already aired on Retro TV.  The price is 2.99 per month, or 30.99 per year.  Guess it will be active starting February 27.

Chattanooga, Tenn.

Yay! This is so exciting.

 

EDIT:

Other soap folks take notice: WE WILL PAY. I signed up immediately. Find a way to get your soap libraries online and streaming. 

 

It's great! This is exactly what all of us have wanted for the soaps for so long. I'm so glad Retro is doing this. 

 

2.99 is indeed very reasonable and with a large selection of episodes and special features/interviews, etc. it makes it very worth it. They also give a yearly option of 30.99.
