Thanks @alwaysAMC for all of your recaps. I've been reading through the last month of your entries.

I had forgotten they set up so many convoluted ties with the Santos family and San Cristobel. I can't imagine Danny and Edmund as being friendly (maybe when Danny was meant to be bad), or Edmund being wild and fun.

Michelle knowing Josh and Reva all her life. I mean...I guess...

I was annoyed at the time that they had Buzz going to England because of Jenna's roots, and her (offcamera) family being involved, when a big part of her backstory was that she had a very unhappy upbringing and never even felt she had a family.

They badly miscast Bill if they wanted to present him as intelligent. Ryan Brown was one of the dullest himbos ever on any soap.

You're right about Annie's exit. There should have been more story on just why Lizzie would obsess over her so much beyond Beth being a terrible mother.

I didn't realize how blatantly India was shoved into Alan's story. Alan telling Philip how wonderful he is...eh...

I had forgotten Jesse Soffer was the first Max. He would go on to have a popular run on ATWT, and primetime work.

One of the reasons Paul Wesley was likely cast is because he had been in the final month or two of Another World.

I wonder if someone at the show belatedly realized they skipped the 4th. Or one of the few remaining traditionalists at P&G stepped in.

I remember tripping out at Max because I remembered Jesse Soffer from the Brady Bunch movies (I think he went by Jesse Lee). Then he was gone overnight.
