Simplistic and yet so poignant. Yes, if there is anything that the world needs now, it is certainly hope.

 

Forgive me for not knowing this (as I’m not from the US), but what was the significance of 1952 that Jo was talking about in her monologue at the end? Did something major happen that year?

Thanks so much for this.Funny to see Jimmy Bergman in light of the fact that 10 years later he would disappear forever.

The rear projection/car scenes were good as they added some interest and movement.

A bit dodgy in front of the Motor Haven but this was all live.

Sure there are more episodes out there .

 

Completely agree re the state of today's soaps,

They need to look at the low budget days gone by and simplify the storytelling.

Coronation Street had a somewhat similar panning between residences tracking shot for their early closing credits - I loved it.

 

It's a very atmospheric debut episode for a soap, and I wonder how viewers felt over the next few months, wondering if or when he was going to die.

The clips that keep popping up on Youtube. This clip is a snippet of the phenomenal Angela Bassett’s brief run on Search For Tomorrow from early 1985 (which is hardly documented anywhere).

Just found out that in March 1949 Mary Stuart was part of the cast of Suspense, a CBS anthology. She worked with Eddie Albert and his wife Margo, Ralph Camargo (Victoria Wyndham's father) and Stefan Schnabel (Dr Jackson GL).

So over 2 years before Search, Mary was apart of the early days of live TV.

    • Hurricane Sam, which failed to make CBS' 1990-91 schedule. Karen Valentine, Ben Savage (as Sam), Fran Drescher, Tim(othy) Stack, Kiersten Warren, Christopher Castile (as Fran's son!), and Ray Walston as Grandpa, plus featured guest Kurt Fuller. (God bless the producers who upload their busted pilots.)

        I can't believe how many different interactions we got in today's episode. Many we hadn't gotten before or for the longest time.   Everyone looked so young in their flashback scenes with John.   Great to see Will again! Chandler looked so damn hot!   It's going to be interesting to see Will be at his former lovers wedding.

    • -- That accent Cady McClain is using is awful, and it was especially bad in her first scene. Make it stop. -- I agree with all the good and all the bad about Dani, but I do not want Andre to get swept up in her craziness. He deserves better. -- "Better" for Andre is not Ashley. The crazy thing is that the Andre/Dani and Andre/Ashley stories seem to be a part of separate universes. -- The jewelry guy (Adam) who sat with Dani and Pamela had my gaydar pinging. -- I will say the writers are working overtime to make us know Dani and Andre "aren't really related." -- I don't think Leslie will be arrested next week. I think Eva is going to remove the evidence -- that motorcycle helmet -- from the apartment, and that they'll find nothing on the search. -- That wig on Sharon is rough. Wow.

    • I never liked Reva, either the first time around, or the second. My issue for the first go round was that Reva dominated the show, which was a shame because I didn't like the character.  Loud, insecure, narcissistic "look at me", "here I am, entertain me" individuals irritate me in real life.  It wouldn't have mattered to me who portrayed the character...Zimmer or someone else. Reva is a character inherently inimical to the idea of ensemble.   Post 1995, Reva was no longer a character, but a device.    
    • I have no idea why Gio would go to Sonny first since he told Emma he thought Sonny knew about him all along. Maybe to clarify if Sonny knew?  Considering Sonny didn't know Dante was his son back then it doesn't really matter. I am sure Sonny will make some wise parallel about his father leaving and his mother dying or being lied to by Olivia and Gio will see the light.
    • I know I have heard Orpheus mention it, at least in passing.  I still don't know why exactly he hates John though.  It seems Orpheus was heavily leaning into a Stefano moment of Marlena obsession, but then he always wanted to murder her a bunch so it's unclear.
    • I always thought that whoever pitched his return story in 2016 just didn't do their homework, and didn't know that the real Roman was the one who killed Orpheus' wife.
    • Xander is Victor's son, but thought he was his nephew until Victor's will.  His mom is an alcoholic who ran Sarah down then left town.  He's got a kid with Sarah and then is related to the rest of the Kiriakis brood. I would argue Orpheus lost his purpose years ago.  I lost the plot with Orpheus when his entire beef was with John and not Roman.  The person who actually killed his wife. Too be kind I'll just say it looks like Chandler was a bit out of practice at the old acting game.  He's never stopped smirking.
