AMS, are you talking about Carl? He'd be a good character if they ever brought in an older than Frankie/younger than Jesse black male love interest for Kendall (yeah right) or even KWAK (?). A good character for that guy who does that Tyler Perry show and was on ATWT or B&B? You know who I'm talking about. At any rate, my mom and her best friend thought little Carl was the most *sick'nin* child actor ever, they were reminded of him when Max came on the scene.

Yep, Carl. The only time I've ever seen him was in the episode where Jake/Joey shot Grandma Kate that was on WoST back in the day. He could be a true friend for Frankie, too, while also getting into bed with Griffin, who is really gay some chick in PV.

You mean Lamman Rucker? He was on AMC a few years ago as Garret IT'S THE DRAGON, BITCHES!!! Williams, but if DAYS can do it, so can AMC!

I would like to see Lamman in a good soap role - I have never cared for any roles he's had. He would have been good as Greg on OLTL (although that was also a terrible role).

I've seen that photo a few times before I scanned it even but I can't get over Sybil's hideous outfit. She looks like a drugged up Doctor Who villainess.

Mona and Charles shook their tail feathers a bit. I remember in one of the Anniversary shows they showed them getting funky to Donna Summer (or whoever).

Phoebe got REALLY funky, though. She was keepin' up with the young folk! I bet she ordered lots of cocktails that night.

I think they were dancing to Stayin' Alive but on the anniversary they had it dubbed with some copyright cleared ditty. Yeah, Charles and Mona were hand holdin' and a-boppin'.

Lamman, yes, and duhhh, I totally forgot he was on here with Mimi and Dani.

Gotta love back in the day when soaps would sometimes actually have real songs on in the background (though even then they often went the genric route...)

A classic example would be Sammy Jo's muzak version of Thriller she's got pumpin' on the ghetto blaster when she first moves into the Carrington mansion. Like, WTF??

I believe they dubbed Erica's modeling stuff in the All About Erica SN special with copyright cleared music too.

I've only seen it from that marathon and it sure stands out...

I was just including this old article here before I forgot and it goes past the search deadline.

Just including the Dorothy Lyman thread.

From the February 14, 1984 Digest.

"Roommate"?

Brent Barrett's gf's got a Cleo Laine/Jacqui Dankworth thing goin' on.

I didn't even notice that until you mentioned it. Amanda is rocking an andorgynous look there. I think that's the earliest I've seen Sandra...this and that bizarre Hitchhiker episode she was in with Joe Flaherty and Gene Simmons about the evils of cocaine.

I still wish they'd bring Amanda back for a quick story.

I bet they could get her too, she'd probably think it'd be a kick. But that would be one of those instances where you'd hope MW was still Liza.

Being at Studio 54 made me think of Erica's disco. I *promise* I'm not trying to start [!@#$%^&*], purely coincidental, but no Susan made me think of something I was wondering about the other night when the Nightline piece aired... were any of those clips where Susan was holding back the tears at the Emmys from years where Dorothy won?

I think it would be great to have her and Greg back for stuff with Tad/Angie/Jesse. How about a class reunion? Alfred Vanderpool too.

So are you trying to say that Dorothy Lyman trained SMG to continue the path she started in an epic war with La Lucci?

LOL, not quite. I know SL's kids were little in '84 for her to be chillin' at the Studio even for a going away party. But fact or fiction, I have *read* things in the past about Opal stealing some of Erica's spotlight and SL being a little miffed about DL winning the Emmy (twice!). Getting courted by primetime, Carol Burnett no less, may have had folks a little green-eyed too. Who knows... I do think it's pretty much accepted as fact that SL pounded the table and left out crying the year RS won (RS even mentioned this on her hotline the day after SL finally took home the gold).
