I think it's Robert Dwyer and Suzanne Davidson. Most websites say Dwyer played Andy in 1980 but he really started in 1977. This photo is not too long after Betsy's friends talked her into a keg party and John Dixon stopped by to see Andy (she was babysitting) then ran to tell Kim. Betsy and Kim were dealing with Dan's death.

I've been trying to figure out the exact episodes Doug Marland wrote in 1979 but I haven't seen his name yet.

Actually, IIRC, Marland's predecessors (Ralph Ellis and Eugenie Hunt?) started the story, but it was Marland who spun it around and more-or-less fixed it (at least, according to Waggett's Soap Opera Encyclopedia).

Didn't have time to really watch them. Scanned through five months of episodes. I did get stuck in late Jan. 1980 though when Barbara was confessing to Tom she had a kind with some man a few years earlier. As soon as the Dobsons took over, Barbara went on some secret trip to donate blood. Hopefully one day will have time to actually just sit back and watch. In the time that seems like would have been Marlands, Lisa spent most of her time with Bob after the Willows and then Brad.

    • BITD I was posting about how interesting it was that Denise had been with this same guy for simply years but they just did not marry - then that year they married! 
    • Random takes from this week: - Bill’s been played way too soft by the actor. I just can’t buy him doing anything truly sinister. I wish he had more of that old-school Victor Newman edge. - On characterization: I’m fine with Leslie being shown as a narcissistic and cruel mother—as long as she doesn’t tip into full cartoon villain territory. Dani’s involvement in Nicole’s storyline feels natural to me, and I really like that Martín is such a hothead, which totally clashes with his polished political career. No wonder no one wants to confide in him. Also, I don’t mind Haley’s characterization at all. - I’m still annoyed they dropped the whole lawsuit storyline. That’s why I’m a bit hesitant about getting too invested in the June plot. Also: I can do without another instant-sibling storyline. - Ashley and Derek? Totally fine with them in small doses. That’s the best way to handle those two. - Thank God Ted is getting recast. I honestly couldn’t handle that constant swaying much longer. - Speaking of Ted: maybe I’m in the minority here, but that hotel set is hideous. The oversized boiserie makes everything look flat, and that artwork on the wall? Bland, ugly, and lifeless. - I’m 50/50 on the product placement. On one hand, it’s totally misplaced and campy—especially when it shows up in the middle of emotional scenes. It just feels wrong. But on the other hand… here we are talking about Febreze and Tide. So maybe it is working? I honestly don’t know. - I don’t have any issues with the fashion on the show overall, but André’s wardrobe is just off. Not in terms of style, but size. His tops are way too tight and actually make him look even shorter than he is. Same goes for Smitty. Both of them would seriously benefit from some larger blazers or chunkier sweaters.
