Sure did air against it. As a kid I often had to choose between DAYS at the height of Billie/Bo/Hope (so good!) and the possession and AMC.

 

Thanks, @Vee.  Again, I couldn't get excited about anything happening on DAYS (or on AMC) because both shows were so different from the shows I had loved in my childhood.

Aww I wish they could get Kim and Debbi too.

Laurence Lau doesn't age. He's like a fine wine.

 

 

Thanks for posting, I’m just now tuning in. 

Forgive me if this has already been mentioned, as the book was released in 2018, but I just finished reading Michelle Obama’s memoir, BECOMING, and she makes a brief AMC mention (pg. 42):

Wow, that's cool!

I wonder which characters/stories were her favorites.

Sounds like she was a fan in the 70s, so my guess is the Erica antics resonated with her.

The interviewer is irritating, but it’s nice to see Kate.

A variation of this ad campaign is on one of the main Santa Barbara channels, but this one I hadn't seen. Both with Marcy Walker.

Cool, thanks!! 😁

In their Locher Room reunion, Darnell Williams and Larry Lau confirmed what we've heard before -- the AMC set was very much a family.  They singled out Ruth Warrick and Louis Edmonds as being especially welcoming when they started.  Jane Elliott has said in some form that AMC was her favorite of all her soaps.  And Genie Francis loved her AMC time and was devastated TPTB sent her back to GH.  

 

Interesting that of the four w/ so much presence on AMC in the early 80s, Debbi & Darnell, Larry & Kim, -- it was Kim who went on to the greatest prime time success.  IMO, she was the weakest actor of them all (at the time).
