At least we're past the assertion that Claire Labine created the adult Jonathan. Claire Labine was gone years before Ellen Wheeler arrived, and years before Jonathan was reintroduced and Tom Pelphrey was cast. She had nothing to do with any of it.

That is right. 'Oy, Ellen Weston' goes with what precedes it, which is hating that danged hand puppet and Sandy. The rest is what I liked & didn't like. Weston had nothing to do with Jammy. She was Marryanne Caruthers, Carrie Nye, the teens tunneling under the city till they fell through a hole in an apartment, bringing doubt on 5 adult men, etc. Now, is it clear yet?

Millee Taggert was not at GL during Labine's run, firstly. And it was Conboy and Weston that made Sandy into "Jonathan", Taggert was gone. The real Jonathan, played by Pelphrey, was introduced by Kreizman and Wheeler, after Conboy and Weston. So neither Taggert nor Labine were in any way involved with Jonathan. There is at least one year of distance between Taggert and that story, and at least 2-3 between that story and Labine.

    • There has been some confusion about Michael & facial burns. Please see this post: https://bsky.app/profile/shallotpeel.bsky.social/post/3lqkrryu54226 I've chosen to put this here instead of the Classic Thread because it is now with the appearance of recast Michael that this has come up. Different places online, including at least one podcast, remarks have been made about how remarkable it is that he is without facial scarring. Other fans say it was clear from the first that he did not have facial burns. What is included in this post is 2 screengrabs where you can see his face at the hospital & a very quick edit of that day in the hospital. 
    • Put me in the LOVE KMH camp. As a poster alluded to above, her detractors seem to come from people who first experienced the 80s Emily actress. And that's often the case with soaps, myself included. I enjoy the original actor so much that I just never take to the recast. However, KMH played Emily far longer than the original - for almost 20 years - and when she had great material, she was great. I get the sense she didn't like playing the whiny oh-woe-is-me Emily which was all the material she got from about 1996 until she took over the Intruder in late '99/early '00 and got to play a stronger kiss-ass woman who didn't care what anyone thought of her. (Some would call that a bitch but, if a man was in that role, he'd just be called a smart and savvy businessman.) Her relationship with Hal was great. The transformation was done realistically and I thoroughly enjoyed those years the best out of all. Once the writers decided to break up those two, they went back to writing Emily half the time as whiny and pathetic. I preferred when the writers made her stronger.
    • Hahaha - I do. I've always been the type, though, that can't miss anything. I get FOMO, so I'll not skip episodes or fast forward anything. There are only a few TV shows I've dropped because they got so bad vs. sticking it out to the end.  The promise that GL 1997 is better is what keeps me going. I especially want to see the fallout of Blake's lie about her twins and then Annie's descent which I believe won Watros's Emmy.
    • Rita's rape is an episode i constantly search on YouTube hoping one day that it will show up. I always feel like I may have seen it, but I was only 6 at the time and can never figure any of the things I have vague recollection of

    • The rape was in 1979 after they were married. Blake was the result of Holly cheating with him while she was married to Ed. I believe she was born in 1975.
