It isn't jarring to me, but then my mother watched AMC religiously, and Charles Keating appeared on there as an evil shrink involved with Silver Kane named Damon Lazarre, and he had short hair for that role...

 

Here's a link to a promo featuring CK as Damon Lazarre...

I think it's a testament to CK, VW and their chemistry that that relationship was at all successful.  Because, no matter how hard AW's writers tried at the time (and they tried HARD), it was just as hard for many longtime viewers to get past all the years of bad blood between those two.

While AW lost a lot of what made it special in the past, the one thing I can give the show props from maintaining throughout regime changes was the importance of friendship. Chris & Jake's friendship was one of the bright spots of the show's final years. I always loved how close they were. 

 

I think I appreciate this episode too b/c of Gabe/Lorna. God I loved those 2. I think Gabe was the one role that John Bolger had that I was interested in. I didn't care for him during his stints at OLTL or GH. He was dreadful. He & Robin Christopher has stellar chemistry though. 

 

I never cared for Bobby Reno, and he was a dud of a character. Sucks to know that this show got rid of Alice Barrett (Frankie) to make room for this dud character that didn't even last.

That's nice to hear. I just did not care for him on OLTL & GH. He did seem like a decent Phillip from the few episodes I've seen of him during his time on GL. 

 

IMO, he should've stayed on AW till the bitter end as Gabe was his defining role. The show should've did everything in their power to keep Robin Christopher as Lorna too. Those 2 were burning hot, and was one of the hot couples during that detrimental time period.

    • Fixed. Thanks for letting me know.   DA's passing truly saddened me. More than many of the recent passings. I was holding out hope we'd get one more visit  before she passed.

    • Made even dumber with that Blake/Alexis chokehold, followed by the following season when Matthew resurfaced. WTF? There’s good reason I have skipped from Season 5 straight to Season 9 on a couple of my Dynasty rewatches lol. And Chase was supposed to die, but somehow they talked Foxworth back into one more season. They probably shouldn’t have at all. 
    • Philip, like Reva, were characters that should have remained in the 80s and never been bought back to the soap.  
    • I was just going through the vault and watching some random episodes from 2001, then 2006. Sigh. What a different show it was back then. It makes me so sad that it’s barely a shell of its former self. It was always so multigenerational. There were compelling stories for all generations without having to sacrifice anything to make it work. 
    • We are exactly the same. Ashland Locke at least had potential until JG decided to ruin that as he’s known to do with just about everything. It’s clear Sony and CBS don’t give a [!@#$%^&*].
    • Considering Naomi/Jacob are helping with June... and that she and Jacob have a complicated history with Hayley.. there is more soap opera potential having June and Hayley being related.    This is the downside of the show having one huge extended family... anyone not related to the family are boxed in a corner (i.e. Ashley/Derek, Tomas, Hayley/Bill).   If this were a 30 minute soap, I could understand the one family focus.. but this an hour soap so we best be getting a second family and/or characters not connected to the Duprees unless through work/romantic.. etc.
    • That guy also abused Beth (the one Lizzie killed), which the show probably should have done more with rather than just giving her a split personality and having her do whatever the plot demanded.
    • Thanks @slick jones I should mention that someone on the comments for the Ryan's Hope video with Susan Marie Snyder said the episode must have aired in July 1985. Those photos of Denise Alexander are lovely. The one with Denise, Leslie Charleson and Susan Brown got me emotional. We were so lucky to have them for so long.
    • It's just an absolute mess, and at this point, I genuinely do not know if anyone could turn the ship around. It feels like we're too far gone from what would be familiar for this soap. Genuinely.
    • It’s pretty much become the anti-soap. Bascially the show has rolled back to where it was in 2021, where absolutely zero drama occurred and actually I don’t recall anything memorable occurring at all. Substitute Dumas for Ashland Locke and it’s the same thing all over again. At least we have no strange creepy story about Abby this around I suppose?
