Members SFK Posted December 23, 2012 Members Share Posted December 23, 2012 I must say, I find the theme rather generic and snooze-worthy. It definitely adds to the opening credits looking like a travelogue video running at the rental car stand at the airport. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DRW50 Posted September 3, 2013 Members Share Posted September 3, 2013 Thanks. I didn't even know they were on this show. I didn't care for Frankie, but I like her here. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dc11786 Posted September 4, 2013 Members Share Posted September 4, 2013 Boyton's character Beau was the one Lauren Woodard had recently married in the July 1983 episode that was on youtube. Lauren was the tormented blonde ingénue pregnant by a Catlin and taunted by a catty Crissy Catlin. I'm not sure if Boyton played the character when Beau and Lauren were involved. Alice Mitchell Barrett stated spent most of the summer of 1984 with Boyton and Hill. By the fall, Boyton was released from his contract because the character was in Argentina at Thanksgiving. Hill and Barrett have appeared in other episodes that popped up online. Barrett was briefly seen in the July 1984 episode at the very end drinking a soda at the race track while Julie Ridley's Maggie Catlin contemplated what to do about her relationship with Dirk. I think Lionel Richie's "Stuck on You" played in the background. Barrett and Hill also popped up in a November 1984 episode. They were in a cabin being watched by someone, or something. I'm not really sure where that story was going. I'm wondering if this clip features the first appearance of Jacquie as she is being introduced to Beau and Woody, who were the major players. It does seem like she knows Lucian and that she is already working at the stables, so maybe she has been around for a little bit. Anyway, these were fun. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members dc11786 Posted March 2, 2014 Members Share Posted March 2, 2014 Marilyn Martin played Eleanor Quinn Catlin. She was credited in the July 17, 1983 episode that appeared on youtube several years back. I believe Martin was a local Atlanta talent, but she was quite effective. Dawn Young credits herself as Valerie Kristopolis on her website. I believe she also has a twitter account. She claims her character was like Erica Kane. If you know the name, I'm sure you're aware Valerie had set her sights on T.J. Catlin. Danfling, Libby Larsen played Vanessa Mahoney Crane. She is featured in the episode saynotoursoap has posted on youtube. Her character's family had a bit of story at the end. Senator Mahoney (James Condon) was running for office and being interviewed by Stacey Manning (Kay McClellan), who was actually Mahoney's illegitimate daughter. Stacey was involved with Cullen Quinn and Stacey's involvement with Mahoney was complication in their relationship. Vanessa's mother was Carla Lockridge Mahoney. In the one episode I saw with Carla, Vanessa horrified her mother by revealing that she had managed to escape the mental institution by sleeping with her psychiatrist. There have been a handful of episodes from November and December 1984 online as well as solo episodes from July 1983 and 1984. By today's standards, they seem fine, but they were probably considered poor in the 1980s. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members dc11786 Posted June 5, 2016 Members Share Posted June 5, 2016 (edited) Receives some episodes/material in the mail regarding this one so more information will be forthcoming... Mark Dember played Alex, the bad boyfriend, according to one article. The article was from the summer of 1984. I think he may have been Jennifer Catlins' Parisian boyfriend. The Machiste/Joseph High Otter scenes that were previously online were from 1985. Machiste is credited in a February/March 1985 episode I received. Dan Albright (Matt Catlin) and Marion Guyot (Faith Braxton) are still married in real life. Benji Wilhoite, a child actor who probably played Marion Guyot's son or kid brother, has since died. However, when on the show, he appeared in a Labor Day Parade with several of the cast members. At the end of the parade, he was lost and given comfort by Coretta Scott King. Later, Benji would befriend Jarrett Beal, an actor who appeared on "The Catlins" in 1985 as Montgomery "MG" O'Neil. Beal appears to be the son of Alveda King, Martin Luther King, Jr.'s niece. Sam Smiley, the show's head writer for several months in spring/early summer 1983, talked about having conflict with the producers over storytelling. Smiley wanted to tell stories about "the inner human potential of the stories" and the "emotional or touching areas" while the producers preferred "melodrama and to make flashy things happen fast." In another article, C.T. McIntyre is on the spot writing the scripts which include the scenes where Lauren Woodard learns she is pregnant after firing the writers. So this means Smiley was probably in the credits until June/ early July. C.T. McIntyre was a very hands on producer when it came to writing. He was dictating a lot of the story and the headwriters were expecting to plot the day to day out. When things didn't go his way, he would rewrite them. Lucille Crowe was played by Jane Berman. Her character seems pretty substantial to the show's last year drifting from her own major summer storyline, to a thwarted romance with T.J. in the fall, and into a potentially more dynamic role in the Quinn family in the winter of 1985. Didi Lanier arrived onscreen as Fayrene Bishop in May, 1984. Her son, John (Lapides? Lanier?), appeared on the show in 1984 as Quinn Catlin, the infant daughter of Jonathan and Eleanor Catlin. In the spring of 1983, Christina Reguli's (Lauren) daughter, Jessica Reguli, appeared as Stephanie Catlin, Jonathan and Eleanor's daughter. Tommy Hill's Bobby Catlin was actually the 13-year-old son of Matthew and Crissy Catlin. Edited June 5, 2016 by dc11786 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted June 5, 2016 Members Share Posted June 5, 2016 Sounds really interesting. Is there any way you could put any of the episodes on Youtube, or send them privately or anything, when you get them? If not, sorry for asking. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
