Members DRW50 Posted February 9, 2020 Members Share Posted February 9, 2020 Speaking of Reva's homes, it still makes me shake my head a little that she actually called her mid/late '80s house "RevaBend." I remember some Holly fans, after she bought the place, calling it "HollyBend." 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members EllenP Posted February 9, 2020 Members Share Posted February 9, 2020 Thanks! Yes, I must be confused because they did combine the sets around early 2006, I think. I believe they got rid of the dining room portion at that point too. Speaking of Holly’s home, parts of it became the kitchen in the updated Jessup farm house that Cassie and, later, Olivia lived in. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Forever8 Posted February 10, 2020 Members Share Posted February 10, 2020 (edited) Robert Newman (Josh Lewis) was on the latest episode of the Soap Opera Digest Podcast. He talked about memories of Guiding Light. And what he is up to now. Edited February 10, 2020 by Forever8 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Mitch Posted February 10, 2020 Members Share Posted February 10, 2020 LOL..that was because it was located at the bend of the river, but yea, it was weird..they didn't say, "I'm stopping by Reva's house to blackmail her.." it was..."I drove past REVABEND...and saw Alan's limo parked outside!!!" It was like it was Southfork or something. They had to get rid of the Lewis house as it was falling apart. That set had been around since the early 90s as Van and Billy's house and they didn't have the money (the show) to maintain it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Fevuh Posted February 10, 2020 Members Share Posted February 10, 2020 (edited) I know GL got bad. But the Newman Ranch and Y&R is bad. It is a living room and so is the Chancellor mansion but I don't think they ever show it. Sharon's cabin - you'd think she was a poor girl living in the mountains. Mariah and Tessa - horrible apartment somewhere in Genoa City. They don't even show Chancellor park anymore. The sets are awful on these shows from what I've seen. Then they are moving to hotels too just like they do when shows are going down. They started years ago with Genoa City Athletic Club, then it's Society, and Phoenix and the coffee shop - Crimson Lights. They're going downhill. They don't even bother with extras.

Members Soaplovers Posted February 10, 2020 Members Share Posted February 10, 2020 I do recall josh and Reva's late 80s house (after Revabend) ended up being Billy and Nadine's house in the early 90s...and didn't it than become the Vanessa's house? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted February 11, 2020 Members Share Posted February 11, 2020 It did, yes. I remember seeing some angry comments after an episode where Annie, Vanessa and Lillian were [!@#$%^&*] talking Reva, one to the effect of "and Vanessa is living in Reva's house!!" 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DRW50 Posted February 14, 2020 Members Share Posted February 14, 2020 I kind of like the idea of this promo, but Reva was too old at this point to be viable for this role...I did laugh at her unintentionally almost getting caught up in the blinds at the end.

Members Mitch Posted February 14, 2020 Members Share Posted February 14, 2020 Wow..I forgot how "pretty" Frank was back in the day. He played a good normal guy but they never figured out he couldn't do the angst or angry young man thing. I remember he and Mindy being kinda sexy together..much better then annoying Rusty. I wonder how Maeve would have worked with RR's Alan. In the later years I would have killed off Matt and had Van in the Alex role..asserting her power at Spaulding. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members amybrickwallace Posted February 14, 2020 Members Share Posted February 14, 2020 Speaking of Reva, Kim Zimmer has just shown up in Retro TV's rerun cycle of "The Doctors" (August 1979): Please register in order to view this content 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members BetterForgotten Posted February 15, 2020 Members Share Posted February 15, 2020 It’s almost bizarre to see Zimmer dressed and styled in a simplistic 70’s aesthetic. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members amybrickwallace Posted February 15, 2020 Members Share Posted February 15, 2020 It is, but right from the start she had the same verve and passion as Nola that was her trademark as Reva. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
