Sheesh that storyline seems way more intense than I thought it would be. So essentially Warren was gaslighting Suzy to the hilt, and had somehow roped Wendy into the plan as well. That is insane. Thanks for those... it was full on just watching those clips.

This was an episode from mid-1984 that I just stumbled upon. Again lots of familiar faces (Matt Ashford, Marie Cheatham, David Forsyth, Michael Corbett, Lisa Peluso). Even some lovely scenes here with Rod Arrants and Jane Krakowski.

 

The episodes I’ve seen previously of SFT all had Louise Shaffer as Stephanie, but seeing Marie Cheatham’s portrayal here endeared me a lot more to her as a character, and actually made Stephanie somewhat more human and calm rather than as the caricature overbearing mother that Shaffer seemed to bring out more. It’s a shame that they couldn’t keep Cheatham longer.

I forgot to post earlier that I loved the Liza and Travis montage set to their song, "There Will Be Sweeter Days". (Sherry Mathis even recorded the song on the John Gabriel & Friends LP.) I liked that they were a "real" soap couple. Yes, they had outside forces to deal with and their own insecurities, but they loved each other very much and could communicate that love with just a look.

 

Knowing how the Liza character would be assassinated once Travis was gone, I kind of wish both Arrants and Mathis had given in their notices at the same time. That way, the Sentells and their family could have happily ridden off together into the sunset. Still, Mathis never gave less than 100% to all the material she was handed in the last year she was on - even when so much of it was against character and just a mess.

Honey, you’re FB friends with her. Ask her. LOL

 

“Another of the show’s longtime stars, who played the ongoing nemesis of Mary‘s (Stuart, Jo) character, was unexpectedly and unceremoniously fired after more than a decade on the show.  Someone had overheard her in the make-up room the day before, reading about some natural disaster that had made headlines in the paper.  She dryly quipped, ‘Over a hundred people killed. Tsk tsk. And not one of them was a writer.’  The walls certainly had ears and someone rattled to The Powers That Be. Viewers wound up seeing her start a scene with her TV daughter on a Tuesday and an entirely new actress picking up mid-conversation on a Wednesday. (This is not a business known for its job security.)“

Thanks. Ouch. I always assumed that she quit in a contract dispute. 

 

So many defunct soaps are doing virtual reunions. I wish they'd do one for SFT. (Hey, even Loving had one.) Who do you think would participate? I'm pretty sure Marcia McCabe, Maree and Lisa Peluso would. I'd love to see Rod Arrants participate in a reunion; he's always had wonderful things to say about the show. Who would you all like to see if there was a SFT virtual reunion?

For sure, I'd love to see Marcia McCabe, Maree Cheatham, Lisa Peluso and Rod Arrants.  But, I'd add to the list Lewis Arlt, John James, Michael Nouri, Cynthia Gibb, Morgan Fairchild, Courtney Simon, Millee Taggart, Matthew Ashford, Michael Corbett, David Forsyth (if he's healthy), Joel Higgins, Jeffrey Meek, Jacqueline Schulz, Gary Tomlin....

 

Yeah, I admit, it's a long list, lol.

      I remember them showing a map of Michigan during one of Rachel's adventures, and you are probably correct here.  But the map may have been used in 1978, when Sven kidnapped Rachel and characters were searching for her. They had no idea Sven had hidden her right there on the Cory estate.  So that's just another possible sighting of the infamous map.

      The one thing that drives me nuts about this show is that all these wealthy people never lock their doors and everyone just walks in without even knocking.  I live out in the boonies with no neighbors close by, but I always have my doors locked day or night!

      All the best people are at the bottom of the list. Lauren, Michael, Chloe, Traci, Ashley, Mariah, Sharon, Amanda, Devon. I’d rather see more of these people than anyone in the top 10.. (with the exception of Jack and Diane) because I am still enjoying their scenes.

      The live video tribute to Drake last night with current and former actors Thread with link to video: https://boards.soapoperanetwork.com/topic/68987-days-currentformer-actors-live-video-tribute-for-drake-hogestyn  They said that the episodes were filmed out of order over a span of time. As we already knew, re: the upcoming memorial service (not spoiling the airdate here)... the memorial service was taped *before* Drake passed away, and then the studio was on a preplanned hiatus, and the actors learned of his passing during the hiatus. New info from the video last night, is that some of what recently aired (such as June 3rd episode ) was taped *after* the hiatus, so after Drake passed away. Maybe I misunderstood what Martha Madison said, but it sounded that way. My god, I don't know how the actors filmed it, especially Diedre.

      I did not expect Peter Reckell to be the one to break my heart today. Incredible scenes with Bo and his family.

      Barbara, to me, is a mixture of Florence Ballard and Betty McGlown/Barbara Martin (both McGlown and Martin were part of the Primettes before they became a trio and were renamed the Supremes).

      Staci Greason was in Paris during this live tribute, which would have been in the middle of the night where she was. So Fairman arranged to pretape Greason earlier in the same day, and then spliced her part into the end of the video after the live feed, and it's all on the same youtube.

      ALL THAT GLITTERS

      By Contessa Donatella · Posted

      Agree to disagree. I like it. No doubt it's different. It's supposed to be. Is it dated? Yes, but then that's natural, it's from 1977. I think that reviewer needed to watch a few more episodes. It is clever but not precocious. The role reversal IMO works & well. The best thing I could advise anyone interested, is to try it for yourself, you can always quit it if you don't like it. As much of it as some of us were able to gain access to are up on the Internet Archive & also on my Rumble acct. If you need further directions, PM me.

      This was really amazing to watch.   They said that a lot of stuff was filmed out-of-order, over a few weeks. John's memorial service was filmed a few days before Drake died, and then there was a prescheduled pause (the studio being dark for a haitus week).  So they got the news of his passing during the break. But some of the recent stuff at John's bedside (such as his death) was filmed after that hiatus break, so not long after Drake died.

      I don't know how the actors got through it, especially Deidre. They said regarding episodes airing week of June 9th stuff, it will seem less dark to viewers, as there were some (relatively)  lighthearted moments. (not giving spoilers here).  But I guess Drake was still alive when those scenes were filmed, even though they knew he'd pass soon.
