The only other thing that Corinne Jacker did well was integrate Bay City with African American characters.  While she gave them typical soap opera storylines, all of the actors were good.   By 1987, all of those actors were off the show with Quinn Harding being the last one when she was killed by the Sin Stalker.

I wonder if those are new or not.

[AbcNbc247]

I don't think so.

 

IIRC, munecojim had uploaded pretty much all of June-December 1986. Those 1982 episodes are new though

[DRW50]

 

Thanks for keeping track.

All of these characters and convoluted storylines on the show had to be confusing to those who watched the show daily.  In one month from March to April 1982, Tom and Mitch kidnap Matthew, and Rachel tracks them down to a sailboat in San Diego. This leads to the car chase through the streets of San Diego as Rachel tries to escape with Matthew.  Meanwhile, Steve and Alice postpone their wedding so he could help Rachel in San Diego. Tom is arrested once Steve and Mitch rescue Rachel and Matthew.  The Male Panthers implicate Mitch in Matthew's kidnapping and Mitch is sent to prison. The next week, Rachel is swept off her feet by sculptor Nikolai Pirenko. Nikolai gives Rachel the smuggled writings of a comrade.

Eesh. 

 

I remember somebody put up the clips of Rachel in that sculptor story. The only part I remember is his wife.

[AbcNbc247]

 

That storyline went ultimately nowhere either. I just checked the dates on AWHP. Nikolai came on April 1 and left May 14.

The part of Belia Pirenko, Nikolai's wife was played by Elizabeth Franz, who would show up again in 1982 as crazy Alma Rudder, the Cory maid who helped Cecile terrorize Blaine. 

[DRW50]

 

That's the main reason I remember her, probably.

 

I wish the full Alma Rudder story would appear.

Those have been up before. But not the Canadian telecast editions. It's nice to see them back in any form.
