where did you get these facts? I think Marg was gone much earlier than that. she only lasted a few months and Strasser came back

[saynotoursoap]

The facts are correct. Margie Impert started on AW in December 1971. The following are the runs of each of the Rachels, from Eddie Drueding's AWHP. He documented the dates from the actual scripts.

Robin Strasser, March 8, 1967 - December 10, 1971;

Margie Impert, December 27, 1971 - February 15, 1972.

Robin Strasser, February 17, 1972 - June 29, 1972.

Victoria Wyndham, July 21, 1972 - June 25, 1999.

I'm sorry, I think I confused matters by putting the month of the magazine and then putting the airdate. It made it seems like she aired in March.

[DRW50]

There are 5 more clips up of Chip Albers as young Michael Hudson. I won't post them all, so as to not clutter up the thread, but I will put the first and you can go from there. The young Donna reminds me more of Andrea Martin every time I see her.

[DRW50]

I don't think anyone was offended, I just thank you for reading them.

[DRW50]

I guess this promo tells you all you need to know about the show's plans on Jake/Paulina. His return promo is almost entirely about VIcky.

Happy 48th Anniversary Another World. On May 4, 1964 Another World premiered on NBC.

Thanks for reminding us. It's funny, as much as I miss ATWT and GL, I don't think I ever miss a soap the way I miss AW.

During its heyday, AW was la creme de la creme of daytime drama. The years written by Agnes Nixon and Harding Lemay were superb. They should do a DVD release on all the existing material of the original Alice/Steven/Rachel saga: the best triangle in soap opera history.

[Susan Hunter]

I would buy it.
