God, the climax to Tony framing John and him almost being executed is so great -- ridiculous, implausible, unrealistic, but so so fun. Also, Hall and Mascolo doing great work as they played games with each other and Lexie finally finding out Stefano is her father. I certainly didn't expect Stefano chloroforming Marlena twice and possibly kidnapping her. Interesting though -- a few months before Marlena's possession ended, things were being set up for Aremid, so it'll be interesting to see what they do for their next big story (although the Woman in White stuff isn't done yet).

Quick question to anyone that can help. I have seen almost full yearly DVD sets of Days from 1984 onwards for sale (though a bit too rich for me at the moment), has anyone ever gotten these or are they online to download for free anywhere? I would love to get 84 - 98 as it is the period I grew up watching. I also contacted someone from another site who said they have links to download of 84 to now, but have never had a response. Anyone had any luck? 

 

Sorry I am also asking because if I did go for the DVD's I would like to know if they are a scam or not. I don't want to waste money.

It was magic.

 

But, someone just mentioned musical montages. When she was a musical Director, JFP was better than anyone else at musical montages. And, to boot, as a Musical Director she didn't get into trouble. She didn't start getting into trouble until she began to climb the "Producer" ladder. And, she has never stopped climbing it.

I hope no one minds that I'm about to change the subject. Do you remember when DOOL did this story where John & this woman were jewel thieves? In RATSm at the time we decided that she reminded us of Emma Peel of the Avengers. (Diana Rigg) So, we gave ourselves nicknames, dubbing ourselves, "peels". That's how I became "shallotpeel", one who was adopted by "garlic peel". There are still "peels" running around. And, I just flat out never gave up my moniker. I liked how different it was. Thought you'd enjoy the anecdote. We can get so much out of our stories.

Did I suggest Robert Forester to you? You email him & ask for his current list & then decide what you want to buy. I got Doug & Julie's first wedding from him. Got an AW & got a GL, too. All excellent quality. Charged me $5 per plus overall shipping which was not bad. [email protected] ... Hope I'm not repeating myself. But, I'm sure he doesn't have as many as you are looking for. Be sure & ask him if any of them are from kinescopes, too, because some are.

    • I know Passions used this trope with Ethan and Sam to drag out the paternity, but GH seems to speed through certain stories while dragging others.
    • For any other soap, I think I’d agree, but GH, I don’t know

    • Agreed, that there was some strange choices in the episode, especially at the end, but overall, that was some great drama that opens up the potential for so much future storyline. Kat vs. Eva having the most potential, especially over Tomas. I have mixed feelings about Martin/BC though. I thought he did pretty well in scenes with Smitty/MM, but the scenes of him confronting Leslie and of him throwing the books were bad lol she acted circles around him.  It’s similar to what Harding Lemay said about George Reinholt at AW; he could be brilliant in one scene, but then mediocre in the next. 
    • I know some of y'all really like Brooke Kerr, and so I've tried to give her a shot, despite her frequent flat line readings and distracted "did I leave the front door unlocked?" facial expressions. But lord, she is so bad at playing a tough-talking badass that I was actually rooting for Brad today to spill the beans to Drew. 
    • Googling does tend to ruin it.  For those of us who were teens in the late 1970s and early 1980s, you can't imagine how much fun it was to watch the show in the afternoons.  (It came on right after school.)  There weren't any "spoilers" at the time.  We would always try to anticipate how each crime and each mystery would be resolved, and we were ALWAYS wrong, because the stories are filled with so many weird twists and turns.   The head writer (Henry Slesar) and his dialogue writer (Steve Lehrman) invariably toss genuine clues directly into your face in the most unlikely ways, but then they provide a host of "red herrings" to completely confuse you and send you off on the wrong path.  Once the story reaches its conclusion, all you can think is Why didn't I figure that out weeks ago?  lol
    • Does the vault have the original scene and not the short flashback?
    • I appreciate that you are using AI with the knowledge of it's limitations. Some posters take everything it produces as fact.
    • And of course Mama Ru herself appeared on All My Children.
    • The Saturday 8pm slot usually had the lowest rating of the NBC 4 sitcom lineup for some reason. NBC let Saturday night fizzle, They used 9.30 pm to launch 227 and Amen, both of which moved to earlier in the evening but they  kept Empty Nest following GG for several seasons.  Empty Nest should have moved to 8pm with their strongest new sitcom at 9.30, anticipating that GG would eventually falter. Instead they left them there and stretching the sitcom pool too thinly on other nights. When Grand talk over at 9.30 Thurs maybe Night Court and Wings could have been used on Saturday.
