Members Planet Soap Posted July 7, 2020 Members Share Posted July 7, 2020 (edited) My thoughts exactly! Five-day-a-week scripted series should have never gone to 60 minutes in the first place. So long as we get good writing, and decent production values, I'd be all for half hour reboots. IMO, General Hospital should also be slashed to 30 minutes given the subpar content they've been dishing out lately. AMC , OLTL, GH and Oprah was the ultimate line up on my local ABC station!!! Those were the days. Edited July 7, 2020 by ironlion 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Jonathan Posted July 8, 2020 Members Share Posted July 8, 2020 I was just thinking about Ingrid Rogers the other day and went down a rabbit hole of videos and articles about her. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SFK Posted July 9, 2020 Members Share Posted July 9, 2020 (edited) I have the All About Erica VHS and there's a clip of Erica (complete with disco whistle) and company (including Mona and Dr. Tyler) gettin' down on the disco 'round. I just hate that it's copyright cleared music, I would love to know which song they were really grooving to. And thank you Carl!

Members All My Shadows Posted July 9, 2020 Members Share Posted July 9, 2020 (edited) Ooooh, and it's on YouTube. Let me go get cozy and spend the evening reminiscing with my girl! There's a clip from her interview with Dick! "I mean, there's nothing wrong with our little community, you understand. The people there, they are really the salt of the Earth, you know? They're really hard-working and well-meaning. It's just that...well, they're middle class." Edited July 9, 2020 by All My Shadows 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members All My Shadows Posted July 9, 2020 Members Share Posted July 9, 2020 (edited) This thing has so many clips from the first decade that I've never seen before! I had no idea what I was sleeping on. It's so nice to see more of the Erica/Nick relationship - I'd only ever seen Mona walking in on them and then Nick giving her his final kiss-off. What a volatile match they were, especially since their mutual dislike of one another had to have been simmering for years by the time they actually got together. I say it all the time, but look, I'm just gonna say it again. I WANT MORE OF THIS SHT. Lord, they even have some Erica vs. Sara Kingsley in this. I'm outdone.

Members SFK Posted July 9, 2020 Members Share Posted July 9, 2020 I just want to add that I was Christmas gifted All About Erica and the 25th anniversary book by two lovely girls who had major high school crushes on me.

Members Jonathan Posted July 9, 2020 Members Share Posted July 9, 2020 I am very impressed by this YouTube channel which has a ton of Erica clips across various storylines. I had no idea Jenny asked Erica to be one of her bridesmaids!

Members All My Shadows Posted July 9, 2020 Members Share Posted July 9, 2020 HamiltonBernique is one of the old guard AMC/OLTL channels! I'm very thankful it's been up for as long as it has been, because watching all of those 1983-1985 episodes/clips of the show really solidified my love for it. Meanwhile, I took a break from 1989 for a while to watch other things and finally came back to it, and the show is just so stale[ at this time. I'll share more thoughts as I keep going, but I'm finally seeing what the press at the time meant about the show being outdated and desperately in need of some sprucing up. It's strange, because most of the frontburner characters had been on for less than 5 years, but their stories were either a rehash of something that had already been done (Palmer's obsession with controlling Melanie) or something that just really did not fit the show (Marissa's super secret agent sht). That strong, strong sense of community from the early/mid 80s is also gone - you can tell they were trying to bring it back (all of a sudden, Natalie, Angie, and Donna are BFFs who exercise together!), but everything feels so aimless. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Jonathan Posted July 9, 2020 Members Share Posted July 9, 2020 OMG, I can't with Erica and her jealousy of Brooke!

Oh lawd. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SFK Posted July 9, 2020 Members Share Posted July 9, 2020 "I will not have her piggy little face on the cover of my magazine." Getting scenes like this must have been like vacation at work for Susan, an absolute ball. While I have lots of early childhood Pine Valley memories, I don't recall how Erica and Palmer first bonded and got so close. Anyone? OMG! I just realized that I may have led you astray. No harm no foul as you got to visit with Urrica irregardless. But I think the disco scene I'm remembering is actually a flashback from the week of 25th anniversary episodes. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members All My Shadows Posted July 9, 2020 Members Share Posted July 9, 2020 Yes, I watched the entire thing and thought I missed it! That’s all right, I’m gonna go digging through those anniversary eps now and probably spend way more time than I should enjoying them 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Jonathan Posted July 9, 2020 Members Share Posted July 9, 2020 Good question. I think I actually watched a video the other day with one of the earlier Erica/Palmer interactions, but I can't remember the specifics. I'll have to find it again and share. Going down another rabbit hole.... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
