The ladies look great...Ming looks fantastic and there has to be an angel looking over all Emily Stewarts that they turn out looking great and normal and successful with families. Though Colleen, I am sure it was the lighting and the angle..looked like Krammer's landlady in the episodes he is in Hollywood.  And I feel kinda pervy that I now find little Paul Stenbeck kind of sexy.

 

I was surprised how completely smart and charming everyone was..Ming has a great laugh and I loved  how she loves the word "Oakdale"  and the exchange..."That wasn't legal...well maybe in OAKDALE!" and then Melanie "It was..I have the Oakdale book of laws right here!!!"

They all looked fantastic. Andrew is hot! Melanie and Ming Na are beautiful. The reunion was a lot of fun. Everyone was very chatty. Very few questions were asked during the reunion. It seemed to bother Alan at first as Ming Na and Melanie took over. Looks like Colleen and Andrew might meet. She was thrilled to learn he lives in Florida now.

 

It is a shame that I could've had my Emily and Margo on in the mid 90s in Melanie Smith and HBS. I had no idea Marland wanted Melanie back full time. Instead we got stuck with shrieking KMH version of Emily.

Great story sharing today. Looking back, I thought Andy's run was longer. It seemed like it was, and I mean that as a compliment because he truly made that character his own.

 

So Melanie could've been Pam. Interesting. And it was lovely to hear about Marie Master and their offscreen relationship

Haha...I think u are in Florida too....lol. Yeah he was about to say where because Colleen asked and he was cut off by Alan. 

Yeah, Alan started making faces really early.

I don't see Melanie as Pam but if she had gotten the role ....Pam would've been interesting and not boring.

Yes it was! Interesting Ming Na still is great friends with Vivian Gundaker and praised her for work on ATWT.  And that Colleen refuses to do an LA soap.

What I've noticed from these reunions is that Marland seemed to have wanted actors to maintain a link with the show, even if only for brief story arcs. 

I really enjoyed the flow of conversation, and then, well...

Alan should try to make it clear that drop-in appearances should be limited to five minutes, not the rest of the show, lol.

When Melanie said she was the worst actor in the beginning, I was like, "Gurl, you weren't even the worst actress in that role!"

      GH: May 2025 Discussion Thread

      By Vee · Posted

      I don't think they had any idea who he was this time last year. I think they were keeping their options very open. Same with totally dropping the Trina romance that was spoiled for him in the mags once FV clearly took a shine to him. Frank's priorities are bright and blazing in one color. I do think Gio and Emma seem to have worked out given that she is very dry and sarcastic and he is like a hot golden retriever, but I'd still play the field or explore quads with both with very different people - Emma with a scheming young man (of color), Gio with possibly Trina or someone else, or even a boy. Then maybe put them back together, who knows. But of course none that will happen.

      He definitely got lost in the shuffle last year. First, they were implying that he was Drew’s son, then he was nothing more than just Violet’s bff

      And then they changed him to being Dante and Brook Lynn’s son, which was clunky at first but I’m enjoying the storyline now.

      GM is adorable, charming and fun onscreen despite months of nothing to do until recently, and has a bodacious bod. I'm not cosigning the show or this story - I haven't watched a full episode in over a month - but I think we're all taking the small victories in 2025 at this point. I'm open to testing this theory!

      Falcon Crest

      By te. · Posted

      I think Jason might've posted some numbers for the syndication a while ago and the numbers for Falcon Crest was horrible. Like 1.5 rating or something, which was terrible.    ETA: it was actually Paul Raven:   New to syndication 60 min Fall Guy 67 markets 3.1/8 Falcon Crest 110 markets 1.1/5 To get into the top 40, you needed a 4.6/9 rating for reference - and Falcon Crest managed to get into a lot of markets to begin with. In the fall of 1985 Dynasty, Dallas and Knots were syndicated (show / rating / share / coverage % / markets): Dallas 3.4 10 51.7 92 Dynasty 3.4 10 48.7 47  Knots Landing 3.3 10 12.5 20  So, Knots as an example trippled Falcon Crest's rating with 20 markets - I'm sure those were major ones but it just goes to show you how much Falcon Crest bombed in syndication.

      It's not bad but the stories move too slow. It's the same problem when Dan O'Connor was CO-HW with Van Etten, they have a million stories and they all drag on endlessly with no resolution. I'd argue the majority of the stories airing now are good but you get sick of waiting months for something to happen.

      Thanks. I must have missed that period entirely for Lifetime.

      Thanks. I know Marland did that type of thing sometimes but it's less likely with these characters. I don't even remember Alex ever mentioning him.
