@victoria foxton Thanks!!!!!

[Paul Raven]

Thank you-they're great.

This must be just before Lynne Adams returned as Leslie.

[Joseph]

Wonderful! Thank you so much! Great seeing a glimpse of Nancy Addison but I'm not sure I recognize anyone else, I'm so unfamiliar with this period of GL

Actually a good episode in a bad time for GL..Love Alan and Alex snarking, the ridiculous soap drama at the wedding, and them finally showing Kyle for what he is...(why is Ed one of his groomsman?) and typical drama queen Reva..going for a picturesque stroll in her wedding dress (this was real Reva, not the weird thing she became under Rauch.) This was filmed near Peapack too so it shows that the place can actually look good.

Is the older lady on the phone Carol Teitel who played Leslie’s estranged mother Victoria ?

[victoria foxton]

 

Yes, that's her.

Reva being stood up at her wedding, walking around the countryside like Scarlett  O’Hara with a Dionne Warwick song blaring, then getting hit by a car with newly returned Josh being the one to save the day? Just classic. Absolutely classic.

I too enjoyed the Alex/Alan scenes from watching. Poor Mindy though, although I didn’t remember what a gap there was between Kurt leaving Springfield and Kurt’s death.

Who's that Girl Tanya in the Beginning? The one Phillip looks like he's gonna rape then treats like garbage, she looks so very familiar

 

[heffos]

I got to say, the way the character of Phillip was quickly able to organically migrate  from lead romantic hero to somewhat unlikable cad (in order to pave the way to a successful Beth/Lujack pairing) was a testament to GA's acting more than anything else.

And if I remember correctly, the church used here was the same one that One Life to Live used for the climax of its homophobia storyline in 1992.

[Mitch64]

She was Beth's friend but have no idea who the actress is. Damn, everyone is so young and looking good here..Ross is a piece of a** here and Billy was actually looking handsome in his hat. I loved the sick obsession Billy had with Reva and Zimmer is so good here, not the scenery chewer of later days...I love Van's cool shade she give Jeva but Maeve is not very good in the "Oh Billy" scene! Yea, not really liking Phillip turning into a pr*ck here, the triangle could have gone on without him being the bad guy.
