I always wonder about if the show would have survived once Mary Stuart passed away since the original premise of the soap was the adventures of Jo Gardner.  The show expanded its canvas and focus, but Jo was always an element that was kept even the focus continued falling away from  her in the early 80s.

What was the story with Danny and Angela anyway? It's a shame he didn't stay around - Liza and Stu could have used more family (and he's kind of cute - is he the one who later played Cain Devore on OLTL?). 

 

I keep forgetting Olympia Dukakis was on the show at this time.

 

I've so rarely seen any material with Mary Stuart where she really got to act, so this was a wonderful treat. 

 

And it's so nice to see Susan Scannell too. 

 

How long did this Suzy last?

 

Did they only do the "next on" previews when these episodes were repeated (was it USA they were repeated on?)?

I see Robert Lupone is Tom Bergman in one of these episodes. I didn't realize Stu had so much of his family around at this point. Yet they were all written out and so little was done with them. What a waste. 

 

(it's weird seeing Lupone in a good guy role)

Wasn't Search low budget at this time, compared to other soaps?

 

Yet the number of extras and under 5's in those episodes, as well as the size and staging of the warehouse scenes puts the current shows to shame...

 

John Getz is listed as producer in the final clip credits - no exec producer. Was this a time in between appointment of new exec producer?

Interesting Kate, Cagney and TR were all introduced in early 84.  I'm loving Maree Cheatham as Stephanie.  Hogan & Sunny had amazing chemistry.

Thanks.

Somebody probably already posted this months ago but I just saw it on Danny Hill's channel today. It's part of the episode where Eunice and Doug talk about Sam being alive and they plan to tell Jo.

    • @Contessa Donatella, Make sure to cite your sources when making claims such as "apparently she just inked a new deal." This information has not been reported anywhere and is therefore not known to the public, unless disclosed by the actor in question themselves. Once again, stop stating information as fact without providing a legitimate source. What you read or hear somewhere, from either message boards or on social media, does not make it true. This includes information from your "sources."

      Sorry. 
    • I don't believe it either, @kalbir.  Ironically, I think KL's first producer, Joseph B. Wallenstein, ended up producing "Hotel" as well.
    • Yes, and by the time the 2000's rolled around Katherine was a saint and a dynamic business women. Hard to connect with the drunken lush isolated in her mansion of the 70's.
    • For once, I agree with Maurice.  AMC and OLTL had seen better days, IMO, but to assume that the audience would stick around for "The Revolution" or "The Chew" was pure hubris on the network's part.
    • It is funny to think of how the character of Philip II, and the recasting of Jill, really changed the trajectory of Kay.  One assumes she would've mellowed with time, naturally.  But, as someone who started Y&R @ 1986 (when Brad married Traci), I rarely associate Kay with her more venomous past.
    • At Santa Barbara I think she inherited a very strong structure. I also think it's the first time she exhibited the Peter Principle & was promoted just one step above her level of assured competence. If she'd stayed in Music Production I guarantee you she'd have more awards & also a stellar rep.  Oh, we totally agree then.  Betty Rea GL 1970-1996 & at 82 she died 12-23-99. Worked for the show for 26 years. Shorter time at ATWT. GL had no casting director from 1996 till 1999 when  Rob Decina came on board. (He found Tom Pelphrey at college in NJ.) he was 1999-2009, so bitter ender.  Jill GL 1989-1994, so I would guess that Betty was pretty tired & Jill just ran over her, which probably made her last years miserable because this lady was legendary! All years from imdb which CAN be wrong. 
    • I'm not sure I agree with that either.
    • I think the Ralph story was a one of those Kay redemption stories that came up every so often where she would vow to make better choices. I guess Ralph appeared at the mansion for work and was friendly towards Kay and Liz encouraged it.  There would have been a bit of comedy with haughty Kay attempting to relate to down to Earth Ralph. How it was resolved I don't know. Maybe as simple as Kay announcing she wasn't interested? Did Liz and Kay ever interact until Jill got pregnant/Phillip's death? I don't think so and at that point they would not have been friendly. Liz very much knew her place in dealing with the likes of Kay Chancellor.
    • i've never seen any videos of this ivan! if anyone finds any id love to see haha if anyone has any of the videos from the 1984 plots besides the couple clips on youtube i'd love to see those too !
