Members John Posted June 18, 2020 Members Share Posted June 18, 2020 Did Beth & Rob date? I know that he dated Mandy as GL was ending 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members antmunoz Posted June 18, 2020 Members Share Posted June 18, 2020 Rob is the reason Beth went off the rails, honey. She left her husband and he said he’d leave his wife. He didn’t. But then he did for Mandy. Sign me up for the Beth/Rob reunion, also featuring Vincent and Kimberly. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Soapsuds Posted June 18, 2020 Members Share Posted June 18, 2020 I remember all that. What a mess it was back then. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
victoria foxton Posted June 18, 2020 Share Posted June 18, 2020 What @antmunoz said. The bitter break up with Rob. And Rob dumping her for Fake Marina. Was the cause for Beth's becoming emaciated. With a permanently resting bitch face. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted June 18, 2020 Members Share Posted June 18, 2020 I actually preferred Robert Bogue to Mark Derwin (who was garbage for his last 2 years in the role and helped ruin the show for me), but the backstage stuff is so toxic it's hard to get past. I just wish he'd stuck with Dinah as he had a lot of chemistry with her, no matter how much he wanted to play-act with that bad acting Marina recast. At least they got together in the end, I guess. Here's a short Nancy Malone (the Robin after the one we saw in the January 1961 episode) interview. She doesn't say much about her time at GL though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Vee Posted June 18, 2020 Members Share Posted June 18, 2020 Loved loved loved Robert Bogue. It was weird when he began showing up in major video games, including doing the physical model work in addition to his voice. (Both he and OLTL's Doris Belack were in the last two Grand Theft Autos!) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted June 18, 2020 Members Share Posted June 18, 2020 I liked Robert as Mallet too. Didn't Derwin leave to do primetime? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members GLATWT88 Posted June 18, 2020 Members Share Posted June 18, 2020 Wow! I had no idea all this was going on behind the scenes. Was there a gap between being with Beth and then being with Mandy? Was it known that they were seeing each other? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Mitch Posted June 18, 2020 Members Share Posted June 18, 2020 I like Bogue too..but I would kick him out of bed in a minute for still sexy bald Derwin! Too bad the behind the scenes stuff was more sordid and interesting then the show. Hot married Douche(rumored by a gay gossip site to have a uh, physical reason the women go mad over him) screws married woman, (Ehlers was married right?) Woman expects Hot Douche to leave wife, he plans to then changes his mind. Newly bitter middle ages woman tries to get Hot Douche fired..all kinds of drama happens in the on the edge of collapse company headed by a neurotic, hyper emotional person in over her head. Hot Douche meets a firmer, younger, most likely dumber and much blander girl and then DOES leave his wife. Raging bitter middle aged woman goes NUTS and off the rails..Annie Dutton style without violence. Good stuff! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DRW50 Posted June 18, 2020 Members Share Posted June 18, 2020 She was married. This was also around the time of the Stephanie Gatschet/Tom Pelphrey/Gina Tognoni alleged love dramas. There were so many crazy rumors and stories it was hard sometimes to keep up. I remember someone back then claiming that Ehlers had also tried to make a pass at Bartlett, who was, needless to say, not interested. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
