Members DramatistDreamer Posted March 17, 2016 Members Share Posted March 17, 2016 Oh wow, 2 in the same month. I wonder if Eileen Fulton kept in touch with either. The character of Grant Colman popped up on the show pretty frequently years after he was no longer a regular in Oakdale, so it could've been possible for Douglas and Fulton to be friendly IRL. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members zanereed Posted March 17, 2016 Members Share Posted March 17, 2016 I'm not sure if she kept in touch with Douglas regularly, but wasn't it a wish of hers for Grant to come back to Oakdale at the end of the show and take Lisa with him? Essentially to give Lisa a happy ending? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members vetsoapfan Posted March 18, 2016 Members Share Posted March 18, 2016 That was a wish shared by many viewers, but for whatever reason, TPTB seemed determined to keep Fulton marginalized and the character of Lisa barely used over the last several years of the show. It became increasingly obvious as time went on, and one has to wonder who among the higher ups held Fulton in such contempt, and why they did not simply fire her outright instead of degrading her by treating her like an irrelevant under-fiver. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted March 18, 2016 Members Share Posted March 18, 2016 I think this first ad is 1988, not 1989. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nfd2pSHLlYE 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members YRBB Posted March 19, 2016 Members Share Posted March 19, 2016 How much do I love the reveal of Tad Channing's murder? So in love with that 11 minute scene, with its extreme close ups of Denise as she tells her story. So appropriate that she seemed so beaten, so lost by the time she was at the police station. Hal was utterly heartbreaking, especially in the police station where he took his anger out on a desk and later in Denise's apartment with the teddy bear. And let's not forget Iva's 'goodbye' to Craig in the previous episode, with Craig silent "I love you." I love Craig so much (and appreciated his shower scenes, despite all the ridiculous dialogue for Turk, Chester (Jester?) etc.). Really sad stuff, although once again I am a bit floored with the show's reeeeaaaally quick pace. Any less of a headwriter and it would be a mess. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DramatistDreamer Posted March 22, 2016 Members Share Posted March 22, 2016 I remember there was a discussion about what a depressing year 1992 was on ATWT. I don't know whether the episode of Margo's rape is posted anywhere online but AsTheWorldStillTurns has posted it and it's labeled 8/3/92. Was this the only time ATWT issued a warning about the graphic nature of the content before airing an episode? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members P.J. Posted March 23, 2016 Members Share Posted March 23, 2016 I can't say for sure. There were really few truly graphic depictions of violence on ATWT. Emily's rape by Diego might have rated one. Other than Angel/Henry, something during the Teague story, or perhaps something in the Brock Lombard story, I'm not sure what would have even rated one. When did they start the daily ratings? The early '00's? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DramatistDreamer Posted March 23, 2016 Members Share Posted March 23, 2016 (edited) It's not really the actual scenes that make the episode's content so graphic. I think that Dr. Samuel's ER talk with Margo describing in detail Margo's recollection of how she was raped and the physical actions of her rapist (talking about him getting scared when he heard the sirens causing him to pull out prematurely & ejaculate on her leg) and doing a semen analysis. I only watched ATWT sporadically during the time Diego was on, so I only remember that Emily was raped by him but I don't remember the details of it.

Members SoapDope Posted March 24, 2016 Members Share Posted March 24, 2016 I find the first picture of Tom and Natalie funny for some reason. They kind of look like a deer caught in headlights with Natalie looking spaced out and Tom with his mouth open. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members P.J. Posted March 24, 2016 Members Share Posted March 24, 2016 wow...that Tom looks older than Bob in those pics. And look---Franny's like FIVE, while Tom's practically middle-aged. Reading the obits, I had no idea James Douglas was on Peyton Place. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Mitch Posted March 24, 2016 Members Share Posted March 24, 2016 LOL..I think that Tom is hot...Natalie would have been a great character to bring back by Marland...instead of boring Taylor the plain vixen going after him...too bad that the Dobson's screwed her up with that recast. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted March 25, 2016 Members Share Posted March 25, 2016 Ah, John Litvack (the director in the photo with Fulton and Douglas). The same guy who was The WB's head of programming during the "Buffy"/"Dawson's Creek" era -- and the same dude who infamously referred to Michelle Williams as a "chipmunk-cheeked c**t." 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
