Off the top of my head, I believe Tracy Harris was a recovering drug addict who was helping Kelly Harper when she became addicted to cocaine. I think Tracy died of an overdose which facilitated Kelly's decision to quit. Anyway, I know Tracey was a recurring character involved in Kelly's addiction plotline.

KMan, from what I've read, the period where Henry Sleasar wrote seemed to be the strongest. When I read the weekly synopses for his period (1985) the story was fairly strong with the return of Baxter McCandless, the Trey/Sloane dynamic, and the baby Allison plot with Julie / Tyler.

Whatever happened to Prince Ali? (I've seen the final episode, and he is not in it.) How did his relationship with Sloane end? It's unfortunate that these two never became a supercouple.

Based on the tiny bit of Capitol that I have seen, it is way superior to B&B. For a California soap, Capitol had a very strong cast. And if it had B&B's timeslot, I have little doubt that Capitol would have been a much bigger hit than it was.

Some newly uploaded vids (in Italian):

Beginning of primetime movie premiere

Myrna's masseuse (don't you love the doves-to-hands?) went on to play Deacon Frye's (Sherman Hemsley) housekeeper who had a crush on him in Amen.

This is all I have ever seen of Robert Sampson as Sam.

I saw this in its entirety (in English) on WoST. I hope it makes it to YouTube.

A nicely produced scene. They had me at Myrna stepping out of her two-toned Rolls-Royce Corniche in a full-length fox. This is the only time I have seen Myrna have a tender moment with (still thought to be dead) Baxter, her first love.

    • 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.
