Very possible!! I would still be clueless if Bev's son, Scott, hadn't kinda softly spoken up & said he thought he could clear up some of our (AW fans) confusion about his mom, etc. 

Happy to oblige & always, without fail, enjoy posting with you & reading your posts when I am not involved in discussions, too.

Just because someone says something in a book or interview doesn’t make it true or a fact. How many times have people been proven wrong about something in a book or an interview they gave. The Locher Room series alone has had so many erroneous statements that have been discussed here many times. Especially relating to GL.  So many believe everything they hear or read and run here and repeat it as fact. It’s in a book on page 227 so it has to be true! lol So many corrections to make.

Now that bugged the [!@#$%^&*] out of me - and I wasn't even alive when he still was on the show!

IIRC, there was a scene on GL where Roger had a bonding moment with Fletcher and Holly's newborn daughter, Meg, who was born with Down Syndrome.  In that scene, Roger promised always to look out for Meg, because he knew what it was like to be "different" from others.  To me, that scene, along with the scene that @Mitch64 described upthread, really captured the essence of Roger Thorpe.  He might have done some very dastardly deeds in life, and hurt a lot of people along the way, but you knew he'd always look out for the (metaphorical) underdog, too.

And, one other thing about Roger, ... Maureen Bauer was his friend. 

As you are well aware, correcting errors online is one of my things. In this instance I was able to correct the error that PGP wouldn't allow Goutman to invite Beverlee back for the show finale. I'm sure you have a fine appreciation for that fact.

Why are you people so quick to dismiss the things that Donna is contributing with here? That's just information she is sharing, she is not forcing you to believe any of this, just sharing info. If I was you, I would just say thank you to a person that has done nothing wrong. It's clear that this is a personal attack towards a person that is one of the most essential ones with information and quality analysis in this forum. I personally believe what she is saying, because she has the receipts to prove most of the statements. So yeah... what is the problem IF Beverly wanted to come back and couldn't. You people act like Donna is saying something so wrong or so offensive. In the words of Chris Crocker from his infamous Britney video - Leave Donna Alone.

I'll believe  an invitation was extended to Beverlee, but I don't think she would have accepted.

From everything I've read, she didn't seem the sentimental type and wouldn't be bothered returning to a show she left 19 years before that was being cancelled. And the fact that only Rachel was still around from her era wouldn't be much of an inducement.

    • I’m trying to think which actors VW were working with at the time, and none of them had been there for a while. Even like Mac and Ada didn’t have that big of a part in Rachel’s storyline.  And Jamie was involved with all that movie stuff.
    • Brooke did ads before ATWT too. That probably helped get her the job. After ATWT she seemed to branch more into hosting, along with ads.  I think I saw Kelley in an ad or two, but you're right she wasn't on as much. 
    •   Thanks for sharing these. I wonder if Charles might have been in the running for Adam. I know Preacher was a bit of a bad boy at times on EON, but Neal seemed to be a step down, and Robert Lupone had played a similar part on AMC. Given the huge cast turnover at this point I wonder who thought they had been there long enough to go.  Laura Malone/Chris Rich would get a remote within the next year. 
    • Interesting.  It seems to allude to that statement that Warren Burton made around that time about some AW actors getting special treatment.  I wonder who was resentful about not getting to go. 
    • Good morning, boys!  I figured that it was time that our Gio was introduced into the hotness thread

      @ranger1rg I even included a close up of his face for ya!
    • Under all of Madonna's social media today there is this wave of negative, toxic, absurd comments by Lady Gaga fans telling her how Gaga surpassed her in concert in Copacabana. I mean... Who the hell cares? Why are these fan communities so freaking toxic??? I'm sure Madonna doesn't care... But still. Have some respect for M. Leave her social media alone. Go cheer Gaga and be happy. Why come and spew hate on M??? Crazy world.
    • FYI, again, Ruth/Letitia is not in either of these 2 episodes. So that concludes the 4 episodes I had from Nov. 1983. I don't have the October episodes.
    • Eddie has begun uploading the 1990 episodes. I'm so happy about that. I was mindfully taking a break till there's plenty of episodes I can binge watch when I feel like it. Now that 1989 is complete... I can't wait to press play on February 1989 and resume where I left off.

      Me when someone asks me to be proper and demure. 
    • This is just a guess but I feel like the fact that they keep mentioning her dead husband is for a reason. We know Martin has a secret that likely involved someone dying. Martin's victim could be Alan which Leslie/Dana either knows about or finds out and she uses that to blackmail the family into letting her crimes slide.
