Received some magazines a few weeks ago, and wanted to pass along a little info...

I got confirmation that Burt Douglas appeared as Lt. Ed Riselli in 1973.

Character I had but knew nothing about...Eddie Chamberlain was Phil Brent's buddy played by Richard Partlow

Actress Jacqueline Brookes appeared as a psychiatrist shortly before joining AW as Beatrice Gordon.   I wonder if she played Dr. Mary Hansen, Erica's psychiatrist , that appeared in January of 1975. She joined AW in April.

Danfling remembers Eleanor Phelps (SOM, SS, TD, LOL, and GL) as Ruth Martin's Aunt Clara Parker, after Kate Martin died.

 

A few characters I'm trying to identify (there are a bunch) , but if anyone remembers them(Danfling...you have a great memory, so you may)

DA Hamilton 1973

Diane and Derek...Yvonne's Caldwell's sister and son   1984-86

Dr. Katherine Coyle...Erica's psychiatrist in 1983.

Judge Marvin Martell, Brooke's jurist that sent her to jail for not identifying a source...that he was the man behind the ring   1986.

Mike Paine...director of Sean and Devon in a play in Feb. of 1980...I think there may be a video clip somewhere of the three...

Susan Lucci talking about her appearance in the movie Joy and also talking about her appearance on an episode of Long Island Medium.  She said she never bought in to supernatural beliefs until she met Agnes Nixon.  According to La Lucci, Agnes knew how to work the ouija board!  Remember those scenes with Myra Murdock using the ouija board?

I always think of AMC and the Crystal Ball still this time of year.

 

Ms. Lucci sure is getting mileage from this role in Joy. Very happy for her. And that green looks fabulous on her.

 

I am not surprised Agnes Nixon is into that type of thing.

I did hear about Holland Taylor being on AMC but I wasn't aware Anna Maria Horsford was ever on. And as Jesse's lawyer to boot. Going by synopses I figured Liza told the truth before it got to this point. Poor Jesse.

The Opal and Ray scenes left me with a question. Were Opal and Jenny mentioned back when Tad was a child?

    • My thoughts exactly! Fantastic find @DRW50!  
    • That was interesting; thanks. Courtney looks tired and/or bored AF, LOL!
    • 5-12   Lord have mercy.   I'm not sure how I feel about it. Perhaps what I said last week or the week before last. If the highlight of a soap is what people are wearing and not the writing, that's not a good thing. And that was how I was feeling watching this. There was not anyone that I was interested in seeing in the episode outside of Daniel and Sally tbh. Because Daniel continues to be the only thing that humanizes Phyllis for me.    I could care less for the Billy/Sally scenes where he's woe is me. I could care less about Kyle/Claire since the writers took all the drama right out of the pairing. Humanized or not, I could care less for Giggly Heffa.    I barely care for Teriah. But for me, it's nice to see something going on with them. Though it seems so horribly contrived.    I liked the costume designer appears to be trying to find individual styles for some of the characters. For me, Tessa's with the boots stood out given her indie musician history. It seems like Claire's style is coming into its own with block colors. I like Kyle's wardrobe is loosening up somewhat. I even loved the striped dress that Phyllis had on.    But again...where is the writing?
    • It was reported that Jane Wyman absence in the final season was due to health (it's documented that Jane was diabetic) but I believe her episodes being cut was a budget mode move. Similar move Dallas pulled in 1990, it was reported that Barbara Bel Geddes retired due to health (it's documented that Barbara had a heart condition) but I say salary dump. Jane Wyman only acted once after Falcon Crest, a 1993 episode of Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman, but she lived another 14 years after that. Barbara Bel Geddes did not act again after her last episode of Dallas in 1990 but she lived another 15 years after that. The trifecta of suck at Lorimar was Les Moonves, Leonard Katzman, and Michael Filerman. It was a pattern across all three CBS primetime soaps in the off the rails plus budget mode era to salary dump the long-time female cast members and bring on sweet young things hired on the cheap. 
    • To be fair, more than half of them are dead now. 
    • Kat may be a privileged elitist but that's not entirely true.  Kat first met Eva when Eva was snooping at Nicole's desk, so Kat's first impression of Eva wasn't very good.  Plus, Kat's instinct to not trust Eva was 100% right.  Kat's attitude toward Eva had nothing to do with Eva not "bowing" down to Kat, and her feelings toward her half-sister is very justified......minus the making fun of Eva's clothes of course. 
    • They said that this has metastasized to his bones, but the type of "aggressive" prostate cancer he has is actually very common and is treatable, or at least manageable. So the headline is misleading.   Apparently this type of cancer is hormonal which makes it somewhat treatable? But still, of course, sad.  Thinking of him and his loved ones.
    • Kat is a spoiled brat princess and Silk Press Sheila called her out on it.  Silk Press Sheila is someone not to mess with. I was actually scared for Kat when she was alone with Silk Press Sheila and recording their conversation.
    • It is funny that Stephanie and Philip still hide/blush/get embarrassed at the sight of each other.  Meanwhile, Kate's pouring coffee for Rafe at the pub as if they're only casual acquaintances.  Although, if Kate blushed every time she saw one of her former lovers, she'd be permanently red.
    • Great thought.  I mostly forgot about Kate's cancer.
