Say what we will about Farah (and you can say plenty), I have always appreciated her blunt attitude and the fact that she made no secret, from Day 1, how much she respected Erika Slezak and looked up to her. Farah doesn't respect everyone, lol. She never stopped talking about her for her entire run on the show, and their bond worked onscreen. Erika doesn't suffer fools either, and seemed to always like her.

Gigi's introduction was the only story that ever worked for the character IMO and the only time Farah delivered consistent, good work. I think having to act opposite ES everyday upped her game and it showed.

Because I like gossip and yet it often seems to pass me by, has she not respected anyone else that we know of?
Besides whatever residual ill feelings she may have for JPL post-breakup.

On Dirty Soap she talked Crap about Deidre Hall & there is a rumor that she resented the Kyle & Oliver story at OLTL even though it gave her lots of screen time & she didnt like the casting of Gigi's sister or the fact that if OLTL hadnt been canned she was gonna return as Stacy

Can't entire blame her on Stacy and all but why would she resent Kyle and Oliver?
I mean, I didn't like the story but from her POV it gave her more material than Gigi, who never worked for me, really deserved.

It seems out of left field (even for Farah) to be resentful about a same-sex couple's popularity.  If viewers preferred Rex with another woman over Gigi, that's one thing.  But what the heck do Kyle and Oliver have to do with her??

Ah, well.  I don't pretend to understand what goes through the average actor's mind.

      DAYS: November 2025 Discussion Thread

      By Reverend Ruthledge · Posted

      Thanks for that. It was great to see her in an interview. She's very likable. Although it was somewhat confusing. What new soap is she talking about going on audition for in 1973. Was it The Young and the Restless? The editing around that part was weird and choppy. I felt like there was a chunk missing or something. And I'm not sure why she was saying she got colorectal cancer from HPV and said it's because she never got the HPV vaccine but then said she's never had anal sex. I'm not a doctor but that didn't seem to make any medical sense. I don't know. Maybe I'm tired. It just seemed like some of this interview didn't make sense.

      If it helps any, the last script cover from the Elman papers that I have is from episode #3,736 airdate November 15, 1977. Writers are the Hollands with Frank Salisbury.

      B&B: November 2025 Discussion Thread

      B&B really does look incredible. The lighting and the polished sets have made a significant difference how visually appealing the show is now.

      I found the problem with the Labine era was that the show lost some humour when the Labines came on and it could be dull. They also didn't seem to understand some of the characters. As others have said, it looks fantastic in comparison to the next regime but I just remember boredom being the primary response.

      Something I didn't realize: Frank Ashmore, who played Monica's investigator Corrigan in 1981, was also Victor, the third guy in the cockpit, in Airplane!

      Thanks, maybe I will skim through those episodes.  I have previously binged late 1985 through early 1987; April-June, August 1992 (I skipped Carlo Hesser murder trial), Jan-March 1995 and I began watching in 2006. I just struggle to stay consistent with routines especially binging routines haha

      I could've sworn we went over the Bobbie thing a while ago, and saw her introduced to Rick and Lesley as "Nurse Barbara" in very late '77? Or was that early '78? I know the clip is online. Jackie always credited Marland with creating her IIRC.

      Thanks.  Loon Lake - very on the nose. With that "dad" outfit Bo looks even more like Cassie's father...

      Luna parachutes herself into Llanview at the end of September 15th 1991.

      That lengthy flashback does make me wonder if she threw out a lot, but I agree it may have been too easy an urban legend. Would these have been her very first episodes? I imagine you could feel the big difference when Bobbie arrived, alongside the Quartermaines filing in, the return of Heather, and Lesley/Rick/Monica/Alan heating up. It does remind me that there must have been some dud moments in the 60-minute format we just don't see because little of the period is available in full.  I wonder how much longer the Dantes lasted under Marland.  David Hamilton is so disgusting. I appreciate the show making him disgust as some shows when they have stories about older men or women manipulating teens aren't as honest.  I can't see this Rick being friends with him. Chris Robinson's Rick, on the other hand, I could believe.
