So, here's the deal. Karen, a fan & a lawyer in Canada, gained access to a huge quantity of digitized DAYS episodes beginning in 1984. She uploaded files, forever, to a google drive, which she maintains privately. Any fan can have access to it for free, from her, privately. She covers the cost of the drive & put so much of her own time into it for fans who for whatever reason might lose their access. Also, of course, there's all the historical value. I repeat she does this all for free. She only asks that people not give the link out so she can control how much traffic the drive gets. (Otherwise it will end up crashing & cause her to have to re-upload, which she has done already & doesn't wish to repeat.) Now some guy on Facebook is selling the link for $750 cheating his "customers" and her, and the fans in general. The downside also is having to discuss this in public. The drive has had a happy low-key life & ideally would only be spoken about in private. 

There is news. This  guy says his acct. was hacked. We'll  see.

Wonderful! I wish we could see some of Doug and Julie's interaction during the 70's.. including Addie's marriage to Doug and her death. also Susan Martin involvement with Doug and Julie. those are very rare episodes..

Helen Wagner played Nancy Hughes for 54 years, from 1956 to 2010. About 19,700 scenes. 

Suzanne began in 1973 & goes to current, so 55 years, 

@JAS0N47 Do you have any idea how many scenes SR has been in? 

 Helen Wagner, Nancy Hughes McClosky, ATWT

Scenes? It took me decades just to compile the episode count!!  You would need the complete scripts from 1973-1983 to see how many scenes she was in. Plus, you wouldn't know which scenes got cut and didn't make it to air.   My data is # of episodes.

Are you saying someone kept track of the # of scenes that Helen Wagner was in? There was an ATWT stats person doing that since the 1950's? Or has a fan at some point checked all of the scripts to figure it out?

Today was Suzanne's 3,101st episode.

    • Also, isn’t there supposed to be a storyline with Mariah and Tessa? Mariah cheating or something (keeping some kind of secret) and they were only on screen 2 and 3 times this month. Like what? How am I supposed to care when I barely see them? 
    • Definitely wouldn't trust Dinah right now haha.  But that's great to know Billy comes back soon!  I'm excited for that. If he's at the boardinghouse, then I guess he does get closer to Nola perhaps, and then he'll be around Peter/Bridget and J, who is currently in his orbit along with Michelle and Dahlia, and Marcus is at the boardinghouse, so maybe they go the teenage story route most of this time until Billy gets back.
    • Sounds like me, but I prefer to be referred to as Contessa. We all know I can go a long time not paying attention to certain things.  And, if I might add, hey there dude, you effed up pretty good this time and I think this was your last chance. So don't let the door hit you in your behind as you go BYE MOMMY!
    • That did cross my mind at first, but I'd be more inclined to believe it if this didn't involve Trump. I'm not at all sure he is capable of being that sneaky. Of course, there's always a possibility I guess that his advisors are doing it without telling him, but that seems awfully risky. Trump is such a loose cannon you can never predict what he's going to do or say.
    • Whoa. She should have fought like hell to get that. Was it the greatest show ever? No, but it had a fantastic cast and was practically guaranteed to last multiple seasons because of its star power. Could have certainly led to bigger and better things. If it had flopped she could have always gone back to soaps. Judith Light broke through on a sitcom where she was basically second banana to Tony Danza. That grew into a very busy and distinguished career. The woman is still regularly booked to this day.
    • I could understand her being frustrated by the fact that she'd been in the business 10+ years at that point, and probably couldn't even get in the door. But then again, she'd already gone out for pilot season once (that we know of) and she and  her agent knew a 35-ish woman had a very difficult time in Hollywood. I know she did a few guest spots, but other than Designing Women, nothing I saw--not even a Murder She Wrote, and that show had tons of ex-soapers on it. I mean, God bless Marilu Henner, but even having been on Taxi, she couldn't get arrested for years either.
    • I didn't rewatch that period, so I'm not really sure how much Bill is on. I recall something about him living at the boardinghouse. I think Van made Matt his guardian, and why she didn't name Josh would be a mystery to me, other than the HW decided they needed to keep Bill in Matt's sphere. Nola is also his aunt, although they don't know each other well, and Van wouldn't have trusted her anyway. There's Dinah---but she's unreliable. Billy gets out of jail around NYE.

    • That's on Kimmer. As someone posted above...she was offered roles in pilots but she would be part of an ensemble or supporting. She didn't want that so she came back to GL. I don't know what she thought would happen..someone offering her "Here's Kimmer!" or The "Zimmer Comedy Powerhouse Hour" variety show..but her housefrau fans did not have the same pull in HW as they did on the soaps. Forbes and Watros knew that you had to take small parts to get noticed ands start a career in primetime. I know she was in consideration for the wife in Evening Shade, but when you go up against Marilou Henner, the soap diva looses. I could see her frustrated in a role like that, where she has to be the understanding wife with a bit of sass, but she could have made it work, if it wasnt for her huge ego.  I think it would have been an issue haveing all the powerhouse comedy actors surrounding...(lets face it..Alice Ghostly woudl have wiped the floor with her...) but it would have been a good launching padd.
