Ms. Balance was one of the two performers that I know (the other being Jane Manning) who returned to the show for the last episode.

I can find (on IMDb) no mention of any other television or movie roles for her (contrary to the last sentence). Nor can I find any mention of her husband. I will keep looking for something written about their roles in The Owl and the Pussycat.

The actor who played her husband on the show (Joseph Stern) later became a television producer. One of the shows on which he worked was Law and Order.

Slick, can you (or anyone) tell me who Lily was?

That show must have liked the name Lily because there was later a major character named Lily Chernak.

Was Lily the daughter of Spence Garrison and Nancy Garrison? I had been thinking for years that her name had been Sarah, but maybe I am wrong.

Spencer's daughter was probably not introduced prior to the introduction of Nancy, but that may not be true.

I wonder how much longer it would be before Kim Hale and Andy Hurley would be introduced?

There was an actor who played Spencer prior to Ed Power. He was not listed in this cast list. (He obviously had already been replaced.) Sp had Chandler #1.

Also, at some point, soap opera pioneer actress Flora Campbell was written in as Margaret Garrison, ex-wife of Chandler and mother of Spencer.

It seemed to me that Love Is a Many Splendored Thing was frequently introducing new families to join the Donnelly family (after somewhat eliminating the Elliott family). There was the Hale family, the Garrison family, and the Chernak family.

    • BITD I was posting about how interesting it was that Denise had been with this same guy for simply years but they just did not marry - then that year they married! 
    • Random takes from this week: - Bill’s been played way too soft by the actor. I just can’t buy him doing anything truly sinister. I wish he had more of that old-school Victor Newman edge. - On characterization: I’m fine with Leslie being shown as a narcissistic and cruel mother—as long as she doesn’t tip into full cartoon villain territory. Dani’s involvement in Nicole’s storyline feels natural to me, and I really like that Martín is such a hothead, which totally clashes with his polished political career. No wonder no one wants to confide in him. Also, I don’t mind Haley’s characterization at all. - I’m still annoyed they dropped the whole lawsuit storyline. That’s why I’m a bit hesitant about getting too invested in the June plot. Also: I can do without another instant-sibling storyline. - Ashley and Derek? Totally fine with them in small doses. That’s the best way to handle those two. - Thank God Ted is getting recast. I honestly couldn’t handle that constant swaying much longer. - Speaking of Ted: maybe I’m in the minority here, but that hotel set is hideous. The oversized boiserie makes everything look flat, and that artwork on the wall? Bland, ugly, and lifeless. - I’m 50/50 on the product placement. On one hand, it’s totally misplaced and campy—especially when it shows up in the middle of emotional scenes. It just feels wrong. But on the other hand… here we are talking about Febreze and Tide. So maybe it is working? I honestly don’t know. - I don’t have any issues with the fashion on the show overall, but André’s wardrobe is just off. Not in terms of style, but size. His tops are way too tight and actually make him look even shorter than he is. Same goes for Smitty. Both of them would seriously benefit from some larger blazers or chunkier sweaters.
