Members edgeofnight Posted December 28, 2010 Members Share Posted December 28, 2010 On this, the 26th Anniversary of Edge's cancellation, I received something very special in the mail...A script from the Jan. 14, 1976 episode (#5148), just about six weeks after the show moved to ABC. What a beautiful keepsake! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members edgeofnik Posted December 29, 2010 Members Share Posted December 29, 2010 Wow! That is a fantastic gift on this sad anniversary.... How were you so fortunate to obtain it? BTW -- It still p's me off that P&G would not accept ABC's offer to continue. I have a feeling if ABC bought the property, it would have lasted at least five more years (and they would have rallied to get their affliates to start airing it.) Oh, well, water under the bridge. I'm still surprised that it hasn't been rebooted. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members edgeofnight Posted December 29, 2010 Members Share Posted December 29, 2010 How did I obtain it? I am a very infrequent E-Bay user, but I noticed it about two weeks ago, and made the winning bid. Despite the post office's claim 'that no snow, rain or sleet would keep their curriers off their appointed rounds,' we did not have mail delivery on Monday (due to the Northeast storm), so, I received it on Tuesday, THE 26th anniversary of Edge's cancellation. Of course, I count myself as being so lucky that I was one of only two fans invited to the studio on the final day of taping. It was a bittersweet day for me, as you can imagine, but, one that I will never forget. It was one of two Christmas gift that I gave to myself. The other was an invitation to the 'US House of Representatives' Memorial Service for President James A. Garfield (from February 1882) and one of the Congressional signers of the invitation was the then-Congressman William McKinley, who, 20 years later, also fell to an assassin's bullet. I had it beautifully framed. What can I say? I have eclectic tastes. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted December 29, 2010 Members Share Posted December 29, 2010 And they say there's no such thing as fate. Being at the last day of taping must have been sad. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members edgeofnight Posted December 29, 2010 Members Share Posted December 29, 2010 You should have seen the look on Forrest Compton's face when I told him that i could always remember the day that Mike Karr was kidnapped by Lobo Haines...it was the same day that the Duke of Windsor (the former Edward VIII died). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members edgeofnight Posted December 31, 2010 Members Share Posted December 31, 2010 Earlier today, I won a photo of Teal Ames (Sara Lane Karr 1956-61) on E-Bay. It doesn't take much to get me excited. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Soap Historian Posted February 27, 2011 Members Share Posted February 27, 2011 I had, at one point, that photo of Ted Tinling and Emily Prager. My, what memories they bring. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted February 27, 2011 Members Share Posted February 27, 2011 (edited) I didn't realize until reading IMDB that this is the same Emily Prager who was very very briefly a featured player on SNL, along with Laurie Metcalf. Emily is also the only cast member to never actually appear on-air (her one sketch was cut). Wow. http://snltranscripts.jt.org/80/80m.phtml http://www.nbc.com/saturday-night-live/bios/emily-prager.shtml Edited February 27, 2011 by CarlD2 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
