One of the producers on The Catlins was Joe Rothenberger.  He won an Emmy for his work on Another World, then was EP of As the World Turns in the late 70s.  P&G probably hired him to work on The Catlins.  He is still alive and active on Facebook:

Someone should contact him to interview him about his time on the P&G soaps.  Wonder if he saved any of his work from the P&G soaps…

 

@NothinButAttitude, thanks for sharing this! I am pretty sure this is from July, 1983. Most of the 1983 material from "The Catlins" appears to come from this time period (June-July, 1983). There was once an episode yeaaarrrrss ago from July 17, 1983 (or thereabouts) featuring some of the Roger Brown / Powell Jackson interaction, but I was unaware of what was going on at the time. Now, thanks to this, I have a slightly better idea. Based on what I have gathered, the Powell / Jennifer stuff was guided by C.T. McIntyre after he dumped Sam Smiley as headwriter before Steve Lehrman came in to lead the writing team.  

Alice Barrett starts to talk about her time on the Catlins around 12:50 into her interview with Alan Locher. The funny part is that she mentions that she most of her scenes in a stable. 

 

Thanks a lot @chrisml

I wish some more of the Catlins would show up. There had to be someone who recorded this series back when it was airing. It's kind of strange to think that a lot of stuff that aired in the 80's is now considered "lost media". 

I read NBC was still wiping daytime programming like game shows etc...up to the mid to late 80's.  Most of Chuck Woolery's/Susan Stafford's 1975-1981 run of Wheel of Fortune is gone and some of Pat & Vanna's daytime shows are lost. All that survives are home video recordings.

Someone told me that the last season of Adventures of Pete and Pete will likely never be released on DVD because the master tapes were decayed. And that was a well-loved cult show.

I will say Alice Barrett Mitchell tends to be one of the more generous actresses who has spoken time on "The Catlins" and is very consistent in what she says. 

There are some interesting details shared. The poker game that she speaks about is featured online currently. The episode it was a part of was also online several years back by the gym owner Tony who had appeared on the show. I'm very sorry I was never able to get in contact with him about that. Anyway, the poker scenes were in May, 1984, around the time Alice would have first appeared as Jacqui. I believe Jacqui used a different last name at the time of her first appearance. She would later be revealed to have spent time in Paris and was treated by Dr. Peter Crane (Victor Bevine), and she had a brain tumor. This may or may not be connected. 

I hadn't heard that Brett Rice's Seth Quinn was involved in ownership of the horse. This brings some clarity to the departure of Seth and Beau, who left some point in late summer to mid-fall 1984 for Argentina. I imagine they were working on some sort of horse farm now. 

The horse storyline only played out from May until maybe October. By November, Jacqui and Woody (Charlie Hill) have settled into a domestic situation with Woody owning the old Catlin mill that was sold to Woody and James O'Neill in the spring when the Catlins started to experience financial difficulties. Woody and Jacqui were up in a cabin where there was some sort of creature. I think, maybe I'm wrong, there may have been some oil or minerals on the property that Medger Quinn was trying to takeover. 

By December, Jacqui has discovered she is pregnant and she is warned by Dr. Peter Crane that her pregnancy could threaten her life because of the brain tumor, but Jacqui decided to continue with the pregnancy. 

In February, Jacqui and Woody are still together, but there is a threat to their happiness in the form of Maggie Catlin, who was Woody's former love interest before she departed for Washington, D.C., to handle some legal matters for the family. Jacqui told Andrea Smith (Iris Roberts), Maggie's legal partner, of her fears. At the time, Andrea was dating James O'Neil, Woody's business partner and the son of the Catlin family maid.

I don't think that Jacqui and Woody were seen in the April, 1985, episode that was online. I really want to know if Maggie Catlin came back because they talked about her a lot in the episodes I have seen from November 1984 - early March, 1985. Not only would she have been a threat to Woody / Jacqui but to Babe / Dirk as Dirk and Maggie had been involved, and possibly engaged, before Maggie miscarried their baby. 

Decaying video is definitely a concern. Watching more and more of "Another Life" and doing some work on the call sheets for "Rituals" has me yearning for material from the show. I doubt we will ever get the complete series, but it would be wonderful to get longer sets. Someone once claimed to have the last six months or so which covered Lisby Larson's run as Vanessa. I think this would be great to see, but I'd even settle for some more episodes from 1983 with Candy Howard's delightfully wicked Crissy Catlin (I suspect she wasn't present long because there was a recast) and some of Steve Lehrman's material (particularly from December 1983 with the remote on Hilton Head Island). 

In the interview, Barrett Mitchell mentioned the casting being done in Houston and going back to that... did she ever go back to it?

That's sad. I don't think many companies and networks thought that archiving a then current show was worth the time and effort.

I read when the Brady Bunch went into syndication in the mid 70's ABC foolishly used the master prints to chop up to accommodate rerun time slots. When the show was released on DVD a lot of 16mm prints had to be alternated in with the original 35mm to make complete episodes. That's why certain scenes on DVD look grainy. 

Some next day previews for an early May, 1984 episode. It is worth noting that we have previously seen an episode from this period (the complete episode featuring the poker game scenes) that is a few weeks later. 

Worth noting that Muriel Moore is still playing Annabelle in early May and that Matt Catlin is still around. He wasn't in the credits of the April 1984 episode I had. 

Starts around a minute in. 

 

Thanks again for finding a bit more Catlins.

I don't know if this has been mentioned but Mary Nell Santocroce is the mother of actress Judith Ivey.

Ms Santocroce was a very respected Atlanta stage performer.

This was uploaded yesterday--not sure if it's been linked to in the past or not (Catlins are a blind item for me...)  

 

Thanks so much @EricMontreal22 ! That channel usually puts up new content. This one seems new to me. 

@dc11786 may remember it more than I do though.
