I remember Jim D, th actor was hot, so was Mark Armold as Gavin, and that Cop Damien Tyler!

uh Valerie was BORING

LOVED Didid Bannister, the story with the Whiotneys and the Devereauxs, the sad story of Jinx Avery.

HATED the last Nicole!

Didnt Nancy get kidnapped after the Bryson stuff also? I swear I remember that she was?

The third Nicole (Lisa Sloan) was my favorite.

I also liked Jim, Damian, and, especially, Johnny Gentry. I did not care for Gavin or Kelly as much.

I also liked Camilla Deveraux, Valerie Bryson, and Spencer Varney.

Steve Gutherie and Deborah are my very favorites. They should have never been broken up. (same with Laurie and Vic, and Liz and Steve Prentiss.)

I remember both Bobo Lewis and Martha Greenhouse from that storyline, or at least from the show. That she played Hannah was told to my by someone else. I thought that one of them played a prison matron. Or, they could have possibly played the same role, with one succeeding the other.

Just because Denny Albee left the show did not necessitate the break-up. A new actor could have replaced Mr. Albee.

I can assure you that Bobo Lewis was the sole Boss Hannah. It is possible Martha Greenhouse appeared in another role in that storyline, as there were many extras, but only Lewis played Hannah. There was a prison matron named Marge whom Hannah paid for privileges, but she was portrayed by Lynne Rogers from Guiding Light. April had a cellmate, Daisy, played by Karen Wenden. Dixie Carter's short lived husband George Hearn was the prison shrink Dr. Whaley. When the inmates were going to hang April for witchcraft, there were a few other women leading the "trial". Maybe Greenhouse played one of them. You could check with The Edge of Night website. It has a list of dayplayers.

Fisher left within a year of Albee, but she had not decided to do so at the point Albee was dropped. The writers toyed with a Deborah/Logan pairing until Joe Lambie quit. Near the end of Fisher's run, she was tested opposite Larkin Malloy for a Deborah/Sky/Raven triangle. Slesar said that he envisioned Deborah as someone always unlucky in love. Her cross to bear was running away from relationships because she could not trust men. This annoyed Denny Albee. He felt that it made his character of Steve appear weak and foolish when Deborah repeatedly rejected him. He was happy to be moved over to One Life to Live, though I do not know that he fared any better as Dr. Peter Jansen.

At what point can you find Edge Of Night episodes? My earliest memory of the show is when someone (Mike Karrs wife?) ran outside and was hit by a car. Then I remember a character named Orrin Hillyer who married someone who was a double for his late wife. But when I really started paying attention was when Nicole Travis appeared on the scene and the great Stephanie Martin Murder Mystery happened. I LOVED that storyline, but I guess all video traces of it are nowhere to be found?

With AMC and OLTL being rebooted. It really made me think about how I STILL miss The Egde of Night. If I had the means, I'd definitely do a re-boot. I would definitely need a writer with the genious of the late great Henry Slesar.

Gonna have to see if I can find a copy of the Seventh Mask. Looks like a fun read.

    • Natalia is back. GH is becoming ff material once again. It's a shame they can't keep up the momentum they had two weeks ago. Lucky is a loser and so is Frank.
    • I wouldn't say Y&R has the smallest budget, nor would I say DAYS has more sets. Y&R has been adding more sets⏤which is great, given their lack of an overnight set crew⏤and they're not the same set re-dressed as something else (like DAYS historically has been doing for years).
    • That’s exactly it. Entire episodes are just two people sitting in a restaurant yammering on about CEO’s or getting coffee in the middle of the night at the always empty Crimson Lights. Where did I say anything that’s wrong?
    • Anita got over being sad and guilty like whiplash. I guess she just needed a Vernon pep talk. Yeah I’m sorry I don’t see the chemistry with nu-Ted and Nicole at all. When Maurice was in the role you could truly feel they loved each other so much and couldn’t keep their hands off each other. I just don’t see this meek at portrayal giving any sort of chemistry. Couldn’t have said it better myself. I wonder how people felt in the 80’s when Drake replaced Wayne as Roman.
    • No question that DAYS has the lowest budget of all the soaps. The only way to overcome that is with good writing, which we are getting on DAYS as of late. More movement? I have to agree. DAYS just feels like it has more energy and actual physical movement among the characters. Scene after scene on Y&R is with two characters sitting at a restaurant table or on a couch having a conversation. It's static -- and it's lazy.
    • JC memoirs Not Young Still Restless she writes negatively about some people. VR memoirs The Women Who Raised Me from what I remember did not really delve into her time on Y&R. VR "novels" Secrets of a Soap Opera Diva and The Young and the Ruthless: Back in the Bubbles its pretty clear who some of the characters are based on.
    • -- I agree that they've taken Leslie's camp as far as they can take it. That works only if there's also a real character there, and we're not seeing that. Every scene with her is game-playing. -- Laura couldn't call IT to have that Notes program straightened out? I get it -- we need to see that Eva is desperately needed, even though she was hired with nothing on her resume that told us she was a tech wiz. But the only person Laura could think of to call was Eva??? -- I would feel more sympathetic to Eva if she didn't continue to cover for her mother, essentially playing both sides. Again, I get it -- we need to see a daughter traumatized by a lifetime of control by her nutjob mother. Still, there's nothing about Leslie that Eva should side with at this point. -- I had to LOL when Anita said she has to call her agent to call off the reunion concert. Huh??? You mean a concert was planned and scheduled even though we haven't heard these three sing a single damn note together?  -- Are we supposed to be taking Anita's side in this Anita vs Sharon battle? Because I'm not there. One day Anita is sad, despondent, and regretful, and the next she's firing back at Sharon and Tracy that "You two are as much to blame as I am."  -- I agree that we need to see the help hired by the wealthy on this show. It's a missed opportunity. -- I continue to like Keith D Robinson as Ted. I think he has more chemistry with Daphnee Duplaix than Maurice Johnson did.

    • The highest rated soap seemingly has the smallest budget. Days has more sets and movement than Y&R and they haven’t had a budget in YEARS. Also their business stories bother me significantly less than Y&R as they actually mention what their companies do from time to time and it doesn’t eat the show.
