Members Darn Posted December 14, 2022 Members Share Posted December 14, 2022 I don't think Jack and Carly had one good story the last 5 years of the show. They just threw stupid obstacles at them. Rudimentary soap couple stuff. Carly does something dumb, Jack treats her like garbage, oh look another woman. And it was relentless, they were never not frontburner. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Brolden Posted December 14, 2022 Members Share Posted December 14, 2022 I have this written down as February 20, 1967 from an earlier source. I can't immediately recall the source, but on the surface that makes more sense to me as February 20 was a Monday, whereas January 20 was a Friday. Seems like an odd move to debut color on a Friday? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Paul Raven Posted December 14, 2022 Members Share Posted December 14, 2022 Seems likely. I'll recheck! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members soapfan770 Posted December 15, 2022 Members Share Posted December 15, 2022 Definitely the most tortured couple for sure. Jack dies and comes back alive with amnesia, Carly messes up Jack’s career, Carly sleeps with Simon, Jack sleeps with Katie, Carly had mysterious illness, Carly sleeps with creepy ventriloquist guy, both sleep with their best friends, the insanity that was Juicy Janet and then of course alcoholic Carly was stuck in her own hell with a twisted triangle between her, Craig and Rosanna. Thank god they actually ended with a happy ending. Yeesh. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Paul Raven Posted December 15, 2022 Members Share Posted December 15, 2022 Yes it was Feb 20. i misread my notes. Guess I just liked the idea of La Fulton returning in living color! Thanks for the correction. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DramatistDreamer Posted December 16, 2022 Members Share Posted December 16, 2022 Oh wow, thanks for sending this @Soapsuds! Wow, I saw this trailer and didn’t even realize Tamara Tunie was in it! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members P.J. Posted December 17, 2022 Members Share Posted December 17, 2022 Not to nitpick, but Carly didn't sleep with "creepy ventriloquist guy". Sam (play by Wally Kurth), tried to rape Carly and Parker stopped him with a gunshot. Sam's lover Kit came and finished him off. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members soapfan770 Posted December 17, 2022 Members Share Posted December 17, 2022 No worries thanks for correcting me. I think I remember that now but I was so in and out with the show at the time I didn’t care for the show trying bring in stars only to waste them on villain of the month stories either. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members P.J. Posted December 17, 2022 Members Share Posted December 17, 2022 Carly and Jack are still my jam. Please register in order to view this content 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members soapfan770 Posted December 17, 2022 Members Share Posted December 17, 2022 Same here for sure. Carly and Jack were so fantastic definitely one of the last classic supercouples on daytime. I remember back in the day when ATWT was still on I always enjoyed and still appreciate your commentary, especially when it came to “Juicy Janet”. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members NothinButAttitude Posted December 17, 2022 Members Share Posted December 17, 2022 Can I just say that it ALWAYS bothered me that Wally Kurth was wasted as Sam the rapist? I always felt that they should've recast him as Seth or Caleb, as he had good chemistry with Maura. I always felt the show wasted Billy Warlock and Stuart Damon too. Yes, they were snatch and grabs, but they could've easily been cast and legacy characters instead of stupid characters no one cared about. Stuart could've easily been a Don recast. And Billy could've easily been Scott Eldridge or Duke Kramer. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DramatistDreamer Posted December 17, 2022 Members Share Posted December 17, 2022 The show also wasted Carl T. Evans who had previously portrayed a teenage Alan-Michael Spaulding on Guiding Light in the late 1980s, by making him, yes, you guessed it, a thoroughly disposable “villain of the month”, to paraphrase @soapfan770. I had forgotten that the show wasted that much talent in their final years. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
