Finally saw all of the Christmas GL reunion fundraiser. Some observations..

 

1. Not enough was spent on those new to the reunion.

2. Other actors were happy to see James Goodwin.

3. Alan accidentally brought in Beth Ethlers while Kim was on....lol

4. Alan's cam literally came crashing down...lol

5. The tension during the four musketeers reunion was heavy.

6. When signing off Paul Anthony Stewart called Alan... "babe".   Ewwww ...I know PAS has better taste than that.....look at his hot husband. I had to lol at Alan reaction after PAS called him babe..lol

I agree that certain people could have had a bit more time, but I doubt it was supposed to go over 2 hours. 

 

I think James Goodwin has a sense of humor, so people were glad to see him, I laughed when he said that Peter and Jerry weren't nice people, or whatever it was, because you could tell it wasn't something awful or based on reality (like other awkward moments during the livestream.) I liked seeing Rachel and Peter together, and liked that she was the only Michelle he interacted with, as why not.

 

When I think of the Johnny Bauer cancer story I think of the story Beth shared about part of the set going on fire during that scene with everyone holding the candles - no idea if it was the take used or during rehearsal and how Beth, Kim and Jerry were trying to stop the flames, as they were closest to the fire. 

 

When the camera fell I was worried the chat would end, and we wouldn't see everyone. It was different the time that Alan was cut off, and the attendees continued chatting without him. 

 

I wonder if Paul calls everyone babe, and Alan did seem shook. Paul is comfortable in his skin, which is a wonderful thing. 

 

The Kim and Beth being on at the same time was so short, unlike the part with the four musketeers where I felt relieved when they brought in Tina Sloan. 

 

bl (who watched the video of the Shayne reunion last night...that made the Thursday livestream seem a lot less messy. Kristi's comment about Kim's treatment of her, and the chat about Larkin Malloy totally entertaining. And well hearing about Chris Bernau with Kim's Max, well why can't we get more of that content. People talking about Chris....)

I've never heard PAS call anyone babe. I thought I was hearing things so I replayed it to make sure I heard correctly.

 

The four musketeers was tense because of Grant. Once he signed off due to audio issues the chat with Krista, Michael and Judi picked up. Grant also had this smirky weird looking face. Judi reunion with Vincent was more joyous.

 

I know many didn't like Johnny but I did so it was great seeing James again. And Annabelle was a nice surprise too!  I wanted to find out if she got along with Gregory Beecroft. Oh wow didn't know Gregory was from Texas.

All the Reardons except for Mo were gone when she was on, so she interacted with the Bauers the most and was considered one.  Bea was on for her intro, but she never worked with Lisa Brown, Melissa, or the Matt actor.

 

I just watched the reunion and it was great! Whatever faults Alan may have with not knowing some things, I do think he really did love the shows. It was great to see everyone...(though I did feel like a bit weird finding Little Bill attractive) and that they obviously really like each other. I agree that Evan seemed a bit standoffish but she has had a hell of a year so the fact that she even did this was great..PAS looks damn sexy now and I never thought one way or the other about him on the show, and Nancy looks great too...though, the weird musical interlude from SS was..weird...

    • I think you can find them here https://www.tumblr.com/tagged/OLTL What's there is recaps from SOD at the times it shows which is usually from way back up till 2003. Most if not all of this is due to Matt Smith who you may recall from his AW playlists on YoutTube. 
    • Party wardrobe color theme: Good Queen Nicole is in a solid gold gown. The other Dupree women (plus Smitty) are wearing shades of red/pink (with purple accents) -- Anita, Dani, Chelsea, Kat, in dresses. -- Smitty in white shirt and maroon jacket. (did not see Naomi?) "The help" Eva and Mona are in black. Antagonist queen Leslie/Dana in a black/gold gown. The men (except for Smitty) are wearing black. Ted - white shirt, black tie, black jacket. (Ted's jacket was shiny or velvet or a textured fabric - I couldn't quite tell, but the jacket color was solid black) Vernon - black turtleneck, white dress shirt over it, black jacket (no tie). Andre - black T-shirt, gold chain, black jacket. Martin - black shirt, black tie, black jacket. Dr. Carlton Fitzgerald - white shirt, black tie, black jacket. (did not see Jacob?) I didn't see Naomi and Jacob at the party, but perhaps they arrive later? The evening is not over yet.

      I enjoyed his scenes with Johnny. Both of their perspectives make perfect sense to me and are completely relatable. There’s no right or wrong person in this situation and I like that. LH  does pretty well when Tate is angry too, but I also liked the way that he comforted Johnny in the end. Days is finally remembering that they’re cousins. And, Johnny looked hot in the beginning   Btw, Johnny going to work for Xander? That could be interesting. And, also can cause some more animosity between him and EJ.  And again, Marlena/Belle were great. Scenes like theirs really seem to be commonplace under Paula/Jeanne and I couldn’t be happier that they are. It’s helps us get a much better understanding of these characters and why they do the things that they do and feel the way that they feel. Marlena supporting Belle was a bit of surprise, considering her insane reaction when she walked in on EJ and Belle, but I also feel that it’s totally in character for her, both as a psychiatrist and as Belle’s mother.  As for Sophia and Amy… I miss the first Sophia lol but I can’t help but think that Amy suddenly being so nice is foreshadowing of something. Either that, or Paula/Jeanne aren’t biased against her
    • @alwaysAMC Great mini-review as always.  That Gilly story is...certainly one I could not forget... I imagine a number of viewers were shocked with the temporary recast. It was revealed in the soap magazines, as was the news about Frank Beaty's breakdown, I think. I think Wolf had some statements or an interview at the time but very little. I wish someone could interview him. He did a good job under extremely tough circumstances.  For some reason I have a vague memory of him in the Marian getup but that's probably not right.  I'm glad you have appreciated the material with Susan after a shaky start. I always enjoyed her, and she was the only love interest I liked Nick with.

      Btw, if he’s on again, you should apply to be a contestant
    • https://www.instagram.com/p/DJJTEW8J5EA/ 1989 Daytime Emmys Victoria Wyndham gives moving tribute to Douglas Watson, AW's Mac Cory Harding "Pete" Lemay created the character Mac Cory & then Doug Watson played him for 15 years. When Doug died on May 1st, 1989, it was a huge loss to the show, the other actors & also to the fans.

    • Jonathan Kellerman is definitely the most EON/Slesar-like writer in the business right now.  Unfortunately, he's almost 80 years old.  Interestingly, he has a son (Jesse Kellerman) who's about 45, who's been studying under him.  I believe what makes the Kellermans such effective mystery & crime writers is their background in psychology.  
    • I never understood the point of Marchetti. Summer left the show for a job there in Italy. OK. When she returned they had Jack buy the company. Why couldn't Summer have returned and simply stated it was not a good fit, she missed her home , family/friends etc It was absurd that this internationally successful fashion empire could just be bought by a US cosmetics firm at the drop of a hat. What was the point when they never did anything with it at all? Summer simply could have gone to work at Jabot. And wasn't there some nonsense about an offshhoot called Marchetti Home? Was Phyllis attached to that at some point? This show...
