@vetsoapfan Is that Jacquie Courtney in the ad around 56 minutes? (in the 1985 AW video posted above)

Somehow sad and fitting all at once for Jacquie to close out AW (months after being written out of the show).

Yes, that was our Jacquie Courtney, who did some commercials for Porcelana cream back in the day.

I though her hairdo for this ad was a little too poofy on top, but at least it was a million times better than the awful, butch style she had for a while during her 1984 return to AW

Perhaps that awful hairdo was an omen for how well that return stint would go…

Ought to be a trope. Bad hairstyle? Rough road ahead. 

Eddie Drueding mentioned that the date on that episode (9/16) is likely wrong. If anyone can help narrow the date down this seems to be the week it would have aired in:

SEPTEMBER 9-13, 1985
Donna fumed when Marley decided to go live with Dee. Felicia reminisced about her love for Edward, who's the subject of her latest romance novel. Edward, who underwent plastic surgery, nixed facing Felicia until he's fully recovered. Brittany asked Larry to find out if her baby, Evan, who's supposedly dead, is really alive. Michaud dreamed about seducing Sally, whose romantic thoughts are focused only on Catlin. Chris realized that Daphne was once his father, Frederick's, mistress. Carl and Daphne realized that there's a curse on the Egyptian falcon head pendant that Nancy wears. Cass agreed to help Kathleen prove her theory that something fishy is going on at the Chapin mansion. Jake got Ned to drop the car theft charges against Victoria. Daphne lied to Michaud that she's not looking for the mysterious Egyptian treasure. Donna meddled in Victoria's and Marley's lives.

Here is the ad Courtney did for Hidden Valley Ranch. Didn't she also do ads for frozen entrees like Stauffer's or Lean Cuisine ?

I saw that & guess who I thought of 

If Jacquie was lucky and those ads were national and ran for a while, she could have made a decent amount of money.

No doubt.

The incompetent PTB at the time reeeeeeeeeeeally had to try hard, to bungle the return of a beloved vet so badly, so completely.

Exactly!

What's the link? And will it be partial or full? Just asking for a friend...😁

Last year, after I posted his  updated profile, he sent me a dm with a few more roles, which I did verify, and he messaged me for three more days. He appreciates attention.  🤣 So an account like that wouldn't surprise me. He kept thanking me and the group for remembering that he used to be on television every day.

I believe it must be the Thursday, September 12 -- the voiceover over the end theme mentions that Thrill of a Lifetime would be on that night and I found these listings showing that that show was on on Thursdays in 1985. (Note that the first couple of scenes in the broadcast were repeated from the previous day -- the first scene of September 12 would be Kathleen reading Felicia's book.) And more particularly,there is a commercial and a mention in the voiceover for The Terry Fox Story airing that night, and the listings for September 12 show Terry Fox at 10pm.

Thank you so much. I mentioned this to them and credited you.
