In every interview I have read Susan basically says Maggie was getting repetitive so she left.  I would not be surprised if money was also an issue - Gregory Harrison would not have come cheap but I have not seen anything from her to back that up.  However, before posting maybe look for something to corroborate your statements.  It will help reduce the number of arguments on this thread.

Unfortunately, I couldn't find when Falcon Crest ended production for 1988-89. Susan's last episode was the 1989 season premiere. She might have been tied to a contract with CBS and/or Lorimar until the season finale and/or her last episode aired.

Okay, I did some searching & you are correct, it was her choice to leave. Also she had surgery to remove part of her lung & is in recovery/remission for the lung cancer but now she is suffering from lymphoma. GEEZE!

Ouch! Okay, though, I get it. And, it's true. I tell my posters all the time, if you don't know it, don't post it. I will endeavor to do better.

You mean 18 months of 25th anniversary episodes and storylines?  That sounds unusual.  The show focused on the past for one week which seems normal and like any other show, it was more complimentary but not to focus on past storylines to continue.  There were some intros from the past in the 88-89 season to prep us all for the anniversary but they all went away after the anniversary special.  I probably am misunderstanding what you are stating.  

Sullivan was more known as Lenore at that time.. I think and Barcroft never worked with Nick Costner so I don't see that as something AW would have done. In 1989, viewers saw Sullivan more as Lenore than Barcroft.  Kind of like Toni Kalem coming back for anniversary as Angie would not have made sense and Maeve Kinkaid would be more known at that time.

Actually, when I think about them talking about it in Locher Room chat where I heard about the day Doug Watson died, they talked about 15 months, not 18. And, yes, they talked about it being a really big deal like nothing I've ever heard of! It definitely sounded like an unusual plan!! They even indicated that Doug Watson was having a week off & went to a Dude Ranch for R&R because he was going to be working so hard on the Cory Publishing anniversary story & wouldn't be able to have time off. And, that big deal is what they completely did a rewrite of. I agree that it sounds weird. 

Looking at it now it doesn't look so bad to me but I know when we were in the midst of the storyline I believe I made some smart-as* crack about papier-mâché!!!

Who talking about it in the Locher Room?  Which actors?  I haven't seen any Locher Room chats about AW's 25th anniversary.  I would love to see it..

The network and P&G probably only saw $$ and what they think the viewers could relate too.  Almost like Susan Harney coming back at Alice for the 25th anniversary instead of Jackie Courtney probably would have never been considered.

Not new. Alice Barrett Mitchell, Kale Brown, Anna Stuart, Christine Tucci, Alicia Coppolla

The anniversary was not the topic. It was a Reunion show & they only talked about the anniversary because they talked about Doug's death. But, I REALLY enjoyed it. Tucci & Coppolla are best friends & godmothers to each other's kids!!

    • 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.
    • DAYS posted the recipe! https://www.instagram.com/p/DKiMVZvuZje/ dayspeacock June 5, 2025 Tomorrow is National Donut Day! Here’s Alice Horton’s famous recipe! #NationalDonutDay #Donuts #Recipe #DOOL #Days #Daysofourlives #TBT Ingredients: 2 eggs 1 cup of sugar 1 cup of milk 5 tablespoons melted shortening 1-teaspoon vanilla extract 4 cups all-purpose flour, sifted before measuring 4 teaspoons baking powder ½ teaspoon salt 1 stick butter, melted Cinnamon Sugar In a large bowl, beat the eggs until foamy. Gradually add sugar, beating constantly. Stir in milk, shortening and vanilla. Sift together flour, baking powder and salt. Add to the wet ingredients, mixing well. Cover and chill the dough for 30 minutes to one hour for easier handling. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees. Spray baking sheet with vegetable cooking spray. Roll out or pat the dough on a lightly floured board to a half inch thickness. Cut with a doughnut cutter. Place the doughnuts and holes on the baking sheet, one inch apart. Bake for 10 – 15 minutes or until golden brown. Brush each doughnut and doughnut holes with melted butter and roll in Cinnamon Sugar to coat all sides. Makes about 36 doughnuts. Cinnamon Sugar: 1 cup of sugar 1 teaspoon of cinnamon In a small bowl, combine the sugar and cinnamon, blending 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. This is an amazing resource for EVERY soap.  1973 https://boards.soapoperanetwork.com/topic/41800-ratings-from-the-70s/page/78/#comments 1973 more research https://boards.soapoperanetwork.com/topic/41800-ratings-from-the-70s/page/80/#comments 1973 Update https://boards.soapoperanetwork.com/topic/41800-ratings-from-the-70s/page/82/#comments 1978 https://boards.soapoperanetwork.com/topic/50145-ratings-from-the-80s/page/135/#comments 1979-1988 https://boards.soapoperanetwork.com/topic/50145-ratings-from-the-80s/page/115/#comments 1989  https://boards.soapoperanetwork.com/topic/50145-ratings-from-the-80s/page/122/#comment-1876530 1990-1999  https://boards.soapoperanetwork.com/topic/58300-ratings-from-the-90s/page/11/#comments 2000-2004  https://boards.soapoperanetwork.com/topic/58300-ratings-from-the-90s/page/58/#comments
    • 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.
