That pretty much describes LML, MAB, and JFP's reigns.

That article about Kay Alden really drives home how different it was when the soaps tried to hire educated people who cared passionately for the genre and took it seriously.

I've practically already erased all that MAB did while she was on the show from my mind. The only thing I can acknowledge I truly loved from that era is Patty Williams. Even then that didn't come without a price, I still miss Colleen.

1974 interview with Bill Bell. http://archives.chicagotribune.com/1973/10/14/page/240/article/just-plain-bill

Some highlights

*He patterned the character of Laura Horton on his wife Lee.

*He doesn't like to kill off characters.

*He watches other soaps Love of Life and Search for Tomorrow are mentioned.

*Doctors and lawyers are always present rather than businessmen as it provides more story (that would change in the 80's)

*CBS wanted younger viewers but were hesitant to use 'young' in the title.

*He was not allowed to do an interracial marriage story (on Days?)

I'm surprised Shelia never went after the Abbotts and Newmans like she did with the Forresters on B&B

shows how botched the 2005 return was...

There was just no need to put her into a corner so soon.

Starting with Scotty being able to stay.....then maybe falling and love with and even marrying Colleen...

Well she did come after them [Phyllis, who was Newman at the time, and Nick] inadvertently in that dreadful final return when she was supposedly a doppelgänger for Phyllis. But that was because they had ties to Lauren and Michael.

That was only for a short while. I would've liked if Phyllis was held captive for months and Shelia was having scenes with everyone

Hey Guys! I just wanted to organize my list of episodes I uploaded so far, because I feel between what's uploaded on youtube, and DailyMotion It's getting a little confusing so I just wanted to clear it up for you guys. I'm going to repost my playlists and links where you can see the episodes!
