I was just on Mary Linda Rapelye.com where she has 2 videos, one of the character Cal in jail fantasizing about Maggie. The other is Maggie dressed up in a red wig as Cal's wife Billie Lou. In the Cal/Billie Lou video they are playing poker with a man named Missouri Spats.

Does anyone know who played the role? He looks familiar.

Speaking of Lee Bryant in Airplane!, her husband (who was indeed named Jim) was played by soap vet Nicholas Pryor (AW, EON, the original 90210 and is probably best known as Victor Collins on GH/PC). They and Rossie Harris, who played their son Joey ("Joey, do you like movies about gladiators?"), along with several other of the movie's "passengers", were interviewed recently for one of the DVD extras for the movie's 30th (???) anniversary. If I can find the clip, I'll post it here. But that is too funny about her coffee line on ATWT. LOL!!!

LOL..this was pre-Marland when Lisa was kidnapped by whomever was running an illegal gambling thing on Diana's yacht. Is this the scene where the kidnapper says something like, "the only way I can do this without killing you is by gagging you lady!"

I just remember poor Maggie and Cal I think tied together with a bomb strapped to their heads I can just imagine what Marland thought as he was watching this to prepare for his time there!

LOL...that's actually not....bad. A tad cheesy, but at least it wasn't shrieked/shrilled/over the top hammy.

Sigh...I miss the Mona Lisa. And DAYUM, how freakin' gorgeous is Colleen? Ben H looks almost like a hippy with his "long" hair. LOL.

ROTFL..I was just waiting for her to start and when I heard her ...I spit my coffee out.

Damn the Mona Lisa was ugly. I loved the Sabrina story in that they touched on the past and Babs reaction is totally on spot..but really, "Oh I know my entire family is going to be at the Mona Lisa but I am upset with what is going on so I wont go but I got invited by Hal so lets just go to the same place and sit three tables away." And how could anyone eat on those small tables?

I just wish Sabrina wasnt such a frowsy bore. Just what we needed another earnest Hughes. Still would have loved it if she was some cockney slut , giving Kim a reason to grab her pearls and giving Babs some nice insults. It would have also given Nancy something more to do..."No Kim and Bob, I got this, I know how to handle young slutty bitches."

Unearthed a reloading the episode in which Neal is murdered with a plethora of characters in it. I must say though, Glynnis O'Connor is terrible in her scenes as Margo but Linda Cook of Loving fame did fabulous in her scenes as Cynthia! I also didn't remember Ellie coming back and actually being okay with Kirk:

Part 1 is here:

    • Well, they usually weren't on the show at the time for long until the late 90's. But yeah, they really deserved a story centered on them, and not through the lens of Reva.
    • Chelsea was doing the absolute most today! Why was she introducing her sister to a woman she doesnt know? That whole scene was embarrassing. Madison needs to stay away from her bc she is too immature
    • Gosh, what a waste with Lunacy. Why have her live with $B, reveal Finn, pardon her, etc What makes this story incredibly hollow is that what Luna is asking isn't unreasonable - to spend time with her cousin father. She's not asking to move in with them. How hard with it be for Finn to throw her a bone by, say, I'll meet you for lunch/coffee once at week at the hospital cafeteria. Lunacy isn't going to hurt Finn. In fact, all her crimes were related to finding her father and it turns out to be someone she's loved her entire life. Instead of course-correcting the nonsense of last summer, Brad somehow found a way to make this worse! That's a skill... Of all the younger actors B&B has cast during the past 5 years, LY has shown the most growth and range. Why get rid of her? 
    • On the subject of sets (seems more interesting to discuss than the actual show)  Some sets we don't see anymore Lauren/Michael apartment (haven't seen that in years) Victoria's house (are Marian/Tessa living there?) Apartment above Crimson Lights (I think Chelsea was the last resident) Penthouse (Lily's home) Chancellor Estate (Devon/Abby) Chancellor office (once Dark Horse) Nick's house GCAC room (used as residence/hotel room for several characters) Some of these may pop up again. The tack house,for example, was not seen for many months before being used again. Have I missed anything?
    • Thanks for searching through everything. Worked on them so long, just too lazy to check for those links myself, so I am glad you chose to do it! I guess I never did type out anything for 1973-1977 in regards to the preemptions, but they are on the charts at least (and this far back, they don't seem to do any of those "breakouts" anymore, so things are simpler in the 1970's, so eventually I could type those out). 
    • I dump on the Y&R sets problem all the time, but BOLD is no better -- and they're not even introducing new sets. All of their sets are years old, and very few look like they're inhabited by people with money. Is that going to change with this move? I'd rather they save the money spent on another remote, which is no better than an HGTV travelogue, and get some new/better sets.
    • The donut posts here make up for a Friday show that was barely meh. Aside from seeing Anna, I really didn't care much about anything else. While I understand the thought behind breaking up all the sadness with "other scenes," I'd rather they moved right to John's funeral. Instead of hearing a stupid story about John changing some minor character's tire 20 years ago, just move on to the crying. I also thought the Chad and Cat scenes were a waste. I realize not everyone is devastated by John's death to the point of not functioning, but going sky diving is a choice. By the way, Jack and Jennifer are giving me nothing on this return. Please leave asap. DAYS did such a great job with John's death, so ending the week this way was a letdown.
    • Add Dr. Montgomery to list of fine women on this show! I hope the show goes forward with Madison/Chelsea and then once they're developed, bring back Allison, who is now divorced or a widow, for a Madison/Chelsea/Allison triangle.  It would definitely be the hottest triangle in daytime.  
    • I wonder if Linda Bloodworth-Thomason had Kim in mind for any of her other characters/series. If they intended Allison Sugarbaker (Julia Duffy's character) to be more in line with who Suzanne was/Delta Burke's portrayal-persona, then I think Kim would have aced that. Yes, it would have been odd, Kim having previously played a different character (from a different family), but Designing Women wouldn't have been the first show with that issue. Or maybe Kim could have played Beth Broderick's role on Hearts Afire. Or Patricia Heaton's role on Women of the House.
    • Sony is probably waiting until Y&R’s lease is up as well. All of TV City is going to be gutted, so they have to relocate at some point.
