There's alot of love on this website, and quite alot of her personal process put into it. So many artist these days are publishing scrapbook work and not their final products...

navigating through her website, I could imagine an Agnes Nixon narrated AMC doing much better than it does today.

I'm an ex-OLTL fan so I naturally went looking for that work, and I personally think there is more to come.

I echo your sentiments about not being able to rave enough!

I think that must be the original opening since its on the kinescopes.

I've only watched the 1st lost episode so far and I'm impressed with how technologically advanced AMC was back then utilizing split screens and as someone else mentioned Amy's creepy nightmare.

I have to ask Agnes what she thinks of the current state of her baby!

For the record, that was indeed the original opening, my mom was at home with my newborn brother when AMC debuted. Plus I remember them talking about it on A Daytime to Remember, they were saying how it's a mystery/been long forgotten whose hand that was.

Rosemary Prinz was bigger than Susan Lucci in her day and she headlined AMC as a favor to Agnes Nixon (Prinz's daytime celebrity was to be a huge draw to the show), she never intended to stay with the show long.

Maybe it's their beauty marks, but Prinz always makes me think of Robin Strasser. They did a TV movie together back in the day, she'd be fun in a guest role as Dorian's maternal aunt.

I thought it was...I knew the original opening had Rosemary Prinz listed as a 'special guest star' and everything, but what threw me off is some of the flower designs around the words 'All My Children' looked a little different.

It is so great to see what some of the current soaps were like around the time they first came onto the air. I only wish they would show a couple of OLTL's episodes as well (if she still has any of them like she does AMC).

And wasn't it Nixon's hand that opened the book?

      I wish I cared about the homeless lady as much as everyone else seems to. After the nothing burger that was the lawsuit, this just feels like another boring Naomi storyline at Orphy Genes since she has no office.

      I think even if Marland had wanted to write more for Sara/Adam, his hands would have been tied as Robert Milli was one of the actors dumped by P&G due to his age.  From the bits and pieces I've seen of that period, Sara does have a key role in the Carrie plot, and Marland briefly gave her son Tim a more important part. I'm not sure if they just gave up on Tim once Kevin Bacon left or if they never really cared. I did not even know for many years that there was an actor in the part after Kevin...and then not one, but two. The Spauldingfield video on Tim doesn't even show the last actor (Nigel Reed), which kind of says it all. Anyway, I do get the sense Marland has some use for Sara, or for Millette. It's only after he goes that she is dumped. Of course he didn't ever hire her for his other shows, so maybe I'm wrong. (then again he never hired Geraldine Court either and he seemed very fond of her) Ann is an odd character to me as she is a proto-Lillian in being defined by pining for a Bauer brother and being involved in the death of one of their wives. I do wonder what else they could have done with her. She was friends with Diane, wasn't she? They could have had Diane manipulate her against Mike, I suppose.

      Yassss....come on Maurice and Brandon...give us nothing!!! Wow, their need to develop their craft shone like a blinding light this episode. Brandon in his Martin and Smitty scenes sounded like he was reading and the facial expressions were giving Disney Channel. He did much better against Maurice in the Martin v Ted scenes. Now, Teddd-dyy (Dana's voice) was just flat. I watched the episode just now after reading the comment on here that Maurice needs to stop swaying, and now I can't unsee it. Has it really been this bad all along?  Ambyr carries. I don't need to say anymore. I am kind of excited to see this Kat/Tomas/Eva stuff play out.  Bill is such a dick to Dani. Like that's the mother of your children that you cheated on with your daughter's best friend but you look to take those low blows. Lord! When he said that thing about it being obvious he didn't care about Dani anymore since he was the one that walked out...that was cold. I even felt for Dani. Bill definitely is all over the spectrum. You can see a villain possibly surfacing, but you also see this great father. The elder Duprees move a little funny. I'm wondering what that is all about. Are they just overly protective matriarch and patriarch because they think it's what's best for their family, or are they afraid their secrets will come out or there's something more sinister there. Why would Vernon want to keep that information from Martin?  I hope something interesting comes out of this June stuff, but as of right now, I'm not too invested. It's not helping my interest on Naomi or Jacob either. However, tge actress playing Naomi has comes a long way from day one.

      None of the males are taking their shirts off every week, so we know they have some degree of acting skill.

      Thank you for sharing. I guess Nancy was catatonic most of her time on the show, so I guess the gasps make sense, lol. I had heard Cathy and Dick DeCoit were supposed to be on the show longer, but Trish Stewart leaving changed all that.

      @Rmodelboy Thanks for posting that On-set pic of June. She looks great, you just might be right about her being Hayley sibling.
