Thanks for posting that. For some reason I had remembered it as them showing her firing on people. I would have enjoyed that even more :lol:

I still never understood how Julia became such a criminal mastermind, but it was a good surprise twist.

I'd forgotten Vicky was still there for the third season -- I guess she must have left early or midway? Her husband started sleeping with his ex wife in the third season I guess. I thought it was the second.

Joe Lambie managed to be dull and hot at the same time.

I remember the cliffhanger vividly. I was shocked to find out Julia had murdered Melissa's dad. I remember in Season 1 when she didnt care for FC. So her now caring about Lance losing everything was out of character. The twist like you said was good. I dont recall what season Vicky left. I thought she wasnt needed. I hated her recast Donna Sparks..or whatever her name was...lol

And yes..Joe Lambie was hot.........

Yeah I also thought it was out of character. I would have believed it more if she had gone on a killing spree because she wanted out of Angela's thumb. And all that about her meticulous plans to frame Cole, I don't think she would have done that.

Dana Sparks. Later to bore everyone on Passions.

I wish I could see that scene again where Angela tells Chase that his mother is dead, when everyone had been told to keep that from him for the sake of his health. Dead Lana Turner and Robert Foxworth in pain -- Jane Wyman must have enjoyed that!

In a later season when Julia returns reformed as a Nun....she mentions to Angela that she went crazy because she was tired of being under Angela's thumb.

Dana Sparks was awful on FC and Passions.

Ha....I did hear JW and Lana Turner didnt get along...the same for Robert....Though I also heard Robert was difficult to work with.

I read somewhere too that Jane and Mel didnt get along and that's why he was killed off. I didnt hear anything about Simon. Julia's later appearances were good too. At the end of Season 3 she is presumed dead during a fire at FC and eveyone boards a plane to release Julia's ashes ...forgot the place..and thus the plane crash for season 3. Later she returns very much alive explaining she escaped the fire by going underneath the house..some secret pathway...

Interesting that Henry Stern and Stephen Black were writers for Falcon Crsst during the second season. Too bad their work at ATWT sucked.

I've read in interviews that the reason they didn't fight to keep Julia on screen more is because Abby Dalton was difficult actress to work with. It's a shame because I thought she had a lot to offer. I liked the crazy twist and recall them redeeming her, but it all got shot to hell. I think the first season (and probably only) that I loved was the fourth one. I currently own the first 6 seasons and did a rewatch. That one had a gothic nazi plot I enjoyed, Laura Johnson at Terri and Kate Vernon as a love interest for Lance (his best ever). This show never really found an identity. It was constantly changing but had good periods.

It's the definition of popcorn tv. I enjoyed it and do wanna finish it one day. I especially want to review that final season which is so controversial.

I did a rewatch recently and you sum the series up pretty perfectly, Chris.

The show is at its best for seasons 3-4. Best being a very low bar but it's at the very least entertaining, twisty, campy. There's no depth of character but at least the story driven 'events' seem to have some impact. Season 5 was absolute boredom and the rest of the series a complete mess bar Season 9. It's a genuinely risky, entertaining season of TV - probably stronger in the first half than the second but still great stuff. I know some diehard fans get their knickers in a twist about it with Maggie dying etc etc but it was such a poor series generally that I don't know why the shift in tone actually matters to them.

Still watching Season 2 and was surprised to see Brenda Dickson on Falcon Crest....lol I am not sure if she was on Y&R yet. She had a scene with Abby Dalton as she went looking for her husband.

I'm trying to remember the stories once again since I havent seen them in a long time. So Jacquline is Chase and Richard's mother?? So that would make them brothers but in a later season cliffhanger...season 6 I believe Angela finds out Richard is her son. So that would make them cousins. Richard was stolen from Angela but I forgot from who.

And Melissa's baby Joseph is Cole's. What ever happened to Joseph?? Did he leave with Cole? I can't recall.

      BTG: May 2025 Discussion Thread

      By Aback · Posted

      I totally understand your sloths concern about it and I agree with you. Let’s hope the show plays it’s cards right.    Further comments about the last few episodes: - I liked that one of the attendees was filming the scene. That’s realistic. I wonder if the writers will follow up with that.  - Martin and Smitty trying to drag Leslie out was very heteronormative, so perfectly in line with them two as characters lol.    As for the future: it’s obvious the Duprees will come to accept Eva one way or another, but the rivalry with Kay should be here for the long term   On the topic of acting: the only bad actors I’m seeing are Ted and Derek. Tomas hasn’t proven to be either good or bad, so far, but he’s certainly mediocre and uncharismatic. He sucks the energy out of the scenes and I don’t see any couple of women ever vying for him.

      I’m trying to think which actors VW were working with at the time, and none of them had been there for a while. Even like Mac and Ada didn’t have that big of a part in Rachel’s storyline.  And Jamie was involved with all that movie stuff.

      Brooke did ads before ATWT too. That probably helped get her the job. After ATWT she seemed to branch more into hosting, along with ads.  I think I saw Kelley in an ad or two, but you're right she wasn't on as much.

        Thanks for sharing these. I wonder if Charles might have been in the running for Adam. I know Preacher was a bit of a bad boy at times on EON, but Neal seemed to be a step down, and Robert Lupone had played a similar part on AMC. Given the huge cast turnover at this point I wonder who thought they had been there long enough to go.  Laura Malone/Chris Rich would get a remote within the next year.

      Interesting.  It seems to allude to that statement that Warren Burton made around that time about some AW actors getting special treatment.  I wonder who was resentful about not getting to go.

      The Madonna Thread

      By Maxim · Posted

      Under all of Madonna's social media today there is this wave of negative, toxic, absurd comments by Lady Gaga fans telling her how Gaga surpassed her in concert in Copacabana. I mean... Who the hell cares? Why are these fan communities so freaking toxic??? I'm sure Madonna doesn't care... But still. Have some respect for M. Leave her social media alone. Go cheer Gaga and be happy. Why come and spew hate on M??? Crazy world.

      In Loving Memory: Ruth Buzzi (Letitia Bradford, Days, 1983)

      By Contessa Donatella · Posted

      FYI, again, Ruth/Letitia is not in either of these 2 episodes. So that concludes the 4 episodes I had from Nov. 1983. I don't have the October episodes.

      Eddie has begun uploading the 1990 episodes. I'm so happy about that. I was mindfully taking a break till there's plenty of episodes I can binge watch when I feel like it. Now that 1989 is complete... I can't wait to press play on February 1989 and resume where I left off.
