I for one turned into OLTL when AW was ending/ended BECAUSE they had so many former AW actors on there: Kale Browne, Robin Christopher, John Bolger, Tim Gibbs, Linda Dano, and even Kevin McClatchy. I was too young when Robin Strasser was on AW but I also enjoyed her and Catherine Hickland. Because of these people I got hooked and never stopped until cancellation. :-( 

The story that hooked me was Lindsey being on trial for running down Jessica when it was Dorian that had done it. I never looked back.

Maggie DePriest killed off Sally.Zane,Quinn and Masie. She also wrote off Chris, Larry, Clarice, Dee, Carter, Thomasina and Lilly. Ellen Wheeler was awesome as the twins. How i miss the days when soap operas had a real budget and went on location all the time. Taylor Miller wasn't a bad Sally she just didn't have chemistry Thomas Ian Griffith. Sally and Catlin really deserved a happy ending. I love Cass and Cecile even through there story was silly Maggie D wasn't my favorite AW HW but this episode was well written. So many wonderful characters how i miss AW.

I'm also enjoying the vintage AW clips from and thank you all of you who have pointed them out. Some of them are just brilliant in their simplicity and others pack a lot of emotion. I watched during the mid '80s, which was filled with some great actors and characters but not a lot of story. Victoria Wyndham had very little to do but seeing her in the 70s/early 80s really makes me realize how good she really is. And seeing the late 80s allows me to see how good Carmen Duncan is. I didn't see Beverlee McKinsey's years (except through the magic of YouTube) but I can see why Duncan lasted as long as she did.

Interesting I didn't realize that Ellen Dolan was the first Morgan Graves I must have missed those eps when it aired on SoapNet I found the character insufferable even though she was suppose to be an overly antagonistic DA towards first Felicia then to Cass, Stacey, and later Donna.

Can a long time fa answer this. Its about Joey Perini

 

Okay so the role was originated by Paul Perri from April to May 1978

Then Ray Liotta took over and stayed til Nov 1981

 

However from Late Jan-early March 1981, Paul Perri was once again Joey. I assume Ray had other commitments. I just find it odd that Paul was asked to fill in

 

That makes me wonder, did Paul quit in 1978 or did AW fire him for Ray Liotta. If that was the case Im glad to see there seemed to be no hard feelings from either side since Paul came back in 1981

But she was also responsible for bringing the show back to the basics by reintroducing the Frames.  In December 1987, Jason Frame came to the show.  We heard Steve, Emma, Jim Matthews, Russ, Molly, Willis and other names all mentioned in a few days which was hint the Frame family was coming back as major players in the show

I often wondered that too but I don't recall seeing Paul as the original Joey.  Of course, I was pretty young back then but only after reading about this on Eddies page did I learn that Paul Perri the original Joey Perrini. They look very much alike and good recasting

    • Hopefully they can expand some of the sets again. I watched some 04/05 episodes and forgot how much more grand the production used to feel. I wonder if YR will be staying put or going there or somewhere else as well.

    • "Jordan and Robert have the best brother chemistry. " They certainly did!  And that chemistry worked no matter who served as the protagonist in a given scene or story.  A shame that a full-blown story was never developed for those two.  Wouldn't have needed to be adversarial, either.  Maybe a serious, unexpected, long-term outside threat, business or personal, to one of the brothers with the other coming to his aid.      
    • Meant to come back to this!

      I was able to find most of them. I am not sure if you did 1974-1977 but I did not find it in the 70s thread.

    • Mrs. H used the donuts to distract from the expensive jewels that she hid in the walls of her kitchen.  Now, it all makes sense...

      I thought a smart cookie like Caroline Brady would've had the chance to hide a bauble of her own from her dalliance with Victor.
    • They need to get rid of the ugly pizza set. Thanks for the info!

    • I hope this means some new sets! I know Casey has said in the past that the Cabin set is one of their permanent sets   If not then update them please!
    • No. The new studio is closer to the old studio. The Price is Right moved to Glendale.
