If only they let him not wear that bad toupe on GL and go bald. Alan woulda looked more bad ass bald.

 

RPG really does purse his lips in real life too!

Good find. 

 

He makes sense, and I think they did tease a death story for Rick around 1974 or 1975. It's not as if P&G had any issue with killing off legacy kids - ATWT Lisa's son was killed around this time.

 

I was just reading the history of the show around that time and I came across this:

 

"At Ed's urging, Holly and little Freddie went on a picnic. The outing ended when Freddie's clothes caught fire. Afterward, Leslie insisted that Holly never care for her son again unless Ed was present. Then Mike took Freddie, who was both his nephew and his stepson, on a canoe trip. During the trip, Freddie was washed downstream. The frightened boy was rescued by a mountain man and suffered from a brief bout with amnesia." 

 

Sounds like at least one writer had fantasies of offing the kid. LOL.

OMG this is absurd. Lol. I can't believe P&G approved this to air. Is this in the official history books? 

I'd love to see that Holly stuff. Just nuts.

Yes. I got it from the Guiding Light 60th Anniversary Book by Julie Poll.

 

Míriam Colón played the Mother Superior.

Ahhh...see B & E is on to something...the first indication of the Nursery Rhyme Stalker....("Well, that didn't work out, okay, Ill work on  it..maybe I will go after the mothers!")  I would have to agree with Leslie..if someone took my kid on a picnic and they ended up on fire...

@Asb23The guys a real trip. Just as inept as Alan in his own way. Sometimes he just stares at his guest. Jerry and Liz look great. Soaps Past is still way more likable than Alan. SP has a real love and passion for the soaps unlike Alan. Plus he knows his history.

I believe Poll's book had a number if inaccuracies. If I recall correctly, didn't she also say that Paul Kincaid was Bill Bauer and Simone Kincaid's biological son?

Many of the so-called history books have errors in them, which fans are wont to notice and point out. It's very frustrating. Don't even get me started on those dreadful Soaps & Serials novelizations...yikes!
