ATWT Tribute Thread

I wonder if the man who wrote that knew that most of the "relevant" shows he listed were done by writers who had once worked at ATWT or with Irna Phillips.

That "relevant" stuff is kind of a joke now, considering what soaps have become. I wish we could see the ATWT of that era to know exactly how dated the show was. I think that soaps went too far in running from what was seen as dated, but at that time, they had not alienated viewers to the point where viewers were going to just leave and never come back.

Right around the time of ATWT's finale (late summer 2010), Carl posted this really interesting article on Colenback (SOD June 1982). I did not start watching ATWT until the early 80s, so I have always wondered also why the show brought him back to finish up Dan and Kim's stories. I thought that part of the popularity of Dan and KIm must have been the chemistry between Kathy Hays and John Reilly. Before reading the article, I thought it was a nod to the show's history by bringing back the actor who first made Dan popular. If so, I do also wondered whether Kathy Hays' on-screen chemistry with Colenback could compare to that of Reilly, and whether the demise of the character could be attributed to the lack thereof. Maybe it was just too big of a change for the audience, like Kelly and Morgan on GL when Vigard left the show. But Colenback said in the article that Reilly wanted to leave the show, so he returned when asked.

In the article Colenback spoke very highly of Marie Masters, and had good things to say about Hays as well.
