I loved Lilith..though it didn't jibe with the rest of Marland's ATWT which was so dully earnest all the time. She would have been a better fit on GL which has always...(at least since Marlands' turn) embraced camp better. I would love to see Lilith threaten Reva.."I would stuff you into one of my coffins dear but since your middle aged spread as taken over in earnest, I couldn't find one big enough!"   I loved her catching people in bear traps and sending people home in coffins..and yes, the only time I loved Shannon was when she was that dumb shruken head..(and who could forget dumb Duncan not even checking to see if its real just running out of the tent to have..yes poison darts shot at him!)

 

The Jessica actress had no sexual chemistry with anyone but I just dont think she would have chosen Duncan or he her.

I got to agree about GL....it was way more campier than ATWT at the time. I think that's why I didn't like GL as much as in the early 80s.

Uh, did you ever see Jessica with Marshall Travers?!  Tunie and Rucker had smokin' hot chemistry, IMO.

Eileen Fulton's face here always cracks me up.

God I wish the episodes leading up to Whit McColl's death were posted online.

[Dax7000]

I do too. Lisa was really the only ATWT character I was nuts about, so I always hope to find any story where she's featured prominently.

Yes, it's her, "UGH! This murder is going to be sooooooo inconvenient!" look, LOL,

[DramatistDreamer]

 

That always kind of made me chuckle too. Also sort of a "Clean up this unsightly mess!" look.

 

 

It's coming up on a year since Prince passed and in honor of his musical genius, I'm posting this episode from 1985 where at 18:00, we see Lily and Dusty bopping out to Let's Go Crazy.

I think that may be the wrong video.

Darn playlist feature. Fixed it. Thanks.

LOL..sadly I can't remember where my keys are but I remember that commercial and that face! Bette and Joan would stop their "Feud" to applaud Fulton's entrance..."Lisa is BACK and in the thick of things!"complete with hat, fur, and the corpse of her millionaire husband.  I wonder if her dislike of the Whit actor had anything to do with her, "Ewww something smells in here..oh its Whit...will they ever get the stain out of that rug.." look?

Tess' complete contempt for Rosanna still fills me with glee 25 years later.

 

 

[Soapsuds]

I hated Tess. Never cared for her or the actress. As for Rosanna all I remember about YP were her big hooters.

Damn, that Hutch or whatever his name is, was such a FLAMER!! Remember when we just automatically assumed everyone was straight..despite every indication otherwise..oh the innocent 80s and 90s! Tess comes off as his kind of annoying best gal friend then his girlfriend.
