They are seen throughout episodes from 1982-1983 as Jesse’s guardians, and Nancy is seen for about a year after Frank’s death by heart attack. I haven’t seen anything with them from their 70s stories.

Can anyone elaborate on the storyline involving Brooke, Tom, and his best friend Gil?  Gil had attempted to rape Brooke.  How did this storyline come about?  Seems very plot driven.  Was this story meant to create some conflict in the Cudahy marriage?

Honestly, that's all I remember from when I watched it. It really seemed like they had no idea what to do with Tom for a very long time after the initial triangle he had with Brooke and Erica in the 70s. I think they ultimately did good by putting him with Skye later, but even that didn't last long.

Ah ok.  Such a shame.  Tom was a good guy.

 

I thought my ears were deceiving me but the record that DJ Jesse is spinning in this clip is "Major Tom" by singer Peter Schilling.  4, 3, 2, 1.....

 

I love the 80s!  I can't believe All My Children was able to get clearance for this song.  They probably could never rebroadcast this episode though.

The character of Tom was eventually paired with Olivia.   Prior to that, he was paired with Erica, Brooke, Donna, and Skye.   There was a girl that he tried to help who had just been released from prison.  I don't remember her name, but the actress who played her was Tracy Kollis.

 

The show even hinted at the idea of a Tom and Opal pairing when Opal decided to go after Tom.  (Richard Shoberg and Dorothy Lyman had played brother and sister on The Edge of Night earlier.)

 

When Tom was first introduced (rescuing Little Phil from some kidnappers), I thought that Tara and Erica would both go after him, but Tara never seemed to be attracted to him - only Erica.

LOL!  Leave Ruth alone!  You try needlepointing and reading a teleprompter at the same time!

To be fair, I've noticed other times where she does this but appears to be looking for the little red light, making sure her camera is on her before she proceeds with her line/blocking.

This video clip of Kelly and Mark is kinda cheesy, but credit to them for participating.  Agnes was in poor health at the very end, but she was always willing to talk about her Children.

 

 

I find it so weird when soap opera actors do that. They were ON a soap, you know people don't act that way, why are you perpetuating that outdated idea?

When is that from? I don’t think I’ve ever seen her that worn out. Rest on, our sweet legend.

Reguarding Doctor Frank Grant, his wedding to Caroline (Pat Dixon) would be a very good clip to view.  Sadie from One Life to Live (Lillian Hayman) made a cross-over appearance.
