Members Jonathan Posted January 15, 2010 Members Share Posted January 15, 2010 Was it under Gottlieb that OLTL had the Valentine's episode with just music and no dialogue? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Vee Posted January 15, 2010 Members Share Posted January 15, 2010 I'd thought the Corringtons' reign was winding down by the time Samantha was killed in the hot tub. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted January 15, 2010 Members Share Posted January 15, 2010 I just took the quote out of my head, I haven't read the book in a while, so you're probably right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted January 15, 2010 Members Share Posted January 15, 2010 Good Lord, I didn't realize how tall David Beecroft is until I saw him again in that OLTL clip upthread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members EricMontreal22 Posted January 16, 2010 Members Share Posted January 16, 2010 Watching those great 1978 clips--the hostage situation first, who is Richard? I can gather he's an ambitious yougn guy working for the Banner and wants to getmarried to some girl called Becky whose husband won't let her... anything else?

Members DRW50 Posted January 16, 2010 Members Share Posted January 16, 2010 Richard Abbott. He was Victor Lord's nephew (Victor's sister was Gwendolyn). He eventually married Becky Lee, they divorce by 1981. Did he do country singing with her? I can't remember. I think Tina might have been involved with him at one time, years before they made her a Lord. Or was she not? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members EricMontreal22 Posted January 16, 2010 Members Share Posted January 16, 2010 Hrmm he wasn't the older guy who Tina worked for at a Health spa in some episodes from I think 1980? I remember those... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members You're Soaking in it Posted January 16, 2010 Members Share Posted January 16, 2010 Wasn't Seth's exit with ET's Jessica? Anything that occurred with Erin Torpey still there was Broderick, pre-Griffith. (I leave out Whitesell, because the scene sounds too sophisticated to be any part of him...)

Members DRW50 Posted January 16, 2010 Members Share Posted January 16, 2010 Richard last appeared in 1986 when Tina pined for Cord, but was reluctant to marry him because he didn't have money. She got engaged to Richard. When she found out Cord was Clint's son (before Cord did), she dumped Richard and accepted Cord's proposal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members You're Soaking in it Posted January 16, 2010 Members Share Posted January 16, 2010 It was after she found out she was a Lord that she hooked up with Richard (who was then played by Jeffrey Byron). She thought marrying Richard would give her the social status she lacked. She fell hard for Cord, who she initially had no idea was connected to the Buchanans, while she was engaged to Richard. When she discovered the truth about Cord, she dumped Rich so hard that he instantly bounced over to Pine Valley and renamed himself Jeff Martin.

Members DRW50 Posted January 16, 2010 Members Share Posted January 16, 2010 Thanks for the fuller description. I never knew he played Jeff on AMC. I thought that character was just gone for most of the 80s and 90s. I really liked him on PC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members You're Soaking in it Posted January 16, 2010 Members Share Posted January 16, 2010 Becky Lee was definitely there, for I think not quite a year under Rauch. As a matter of fact, he thought enough of her to give her what I call the "Alexis" spot (final billing) on the original Faces of Llanview opening credits - which of course went to Dorian after Mary Gordon Murray left the show. I loved Shelley Burch as Delilah. There was just something very special about her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members You're Soaking in it Posted January 16, 2010 Members Share Posted January 16, 2010 Our responses to the question were simultaneous, Carl! Byron lasted on AMC for about six months, having a flirtation with Brooke. He left, and the role was briefly recast with someone forgettable. Being that Byron spent a year with ABC, I half-suspected this was done to accomodate a year-long contract guarantee; that he was moved over to AMC because he no longer fit into OLTL's longterm scheme. But that's just what I surmise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members EricMontreal22 Posted January 16, 2010 Members Share Posted January 16, 2010 I came back as a daily viewer with the Strom of Change--and I thought this happened right at the very start.. I was pretty sure it was Griffith. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
