Both Alan Needleman and Howie Zeidman are two of a number of crewmembers who took part in Jeff Giles' incredible OLTL history Llanview in the Afternoon, which I cannot recommend enough. I remember Needleman critiquing the use of Michael Storm and saying "[Nathaniel] Marston almost killed me." Buy it today on Amazon. It is indispensable.

Fun ad, although it gives you a seizure. Megan and Max had a similar one around that time.

I forgot to say last night - it may have already been common knowledge, but until that brief clip I had no idea why Wanda always called Asa "Cousin Asa," other than to wind him up. As it turns out they are distantly related, which is hilarious.

Oh, my God.

How long did that set of Wanda's last? It looks a lot different than the one I remember from about 1991 to 1994 or whenever they stopped showing it.

Asa was related to the Texas branch of the Webb family, and Wanda was a part of the Pennsylvania Webb family.   Wanda also had a brother named Al.   I don't know what actor played him.   I think that he was seen when Wanda and Vinnie married.

 

I am thinking that that set when Wanda owned Wanda's Heavenly Hash was also the set that Tony Lord used when he owned a restaurant.   (I cannot remember the name of the restaurant.  Was it Tony's Place?)

 

Wanda later moved her restaurant to Angel Square.   That set, unless I am mistaken, was the same one that Carolotta had when she ran a diner there.

Also, the set where Wanda moved also had a second story.   I think that Jason Webb lived there, and so did Lee Ann Demorist.  I remember the scenes in which Vicki took Duke for Lee Ann (his mother) to visit.   Kevin was not letting Lee Ann see Duke at the time.

Thanks. I think the diner set with Carlotta was different. 

 

I never knew about Al.

Wanda's  brother's name was Paul Webb.  Joel Higgins played the part.  Paul later married a woman named Donna, off screen.  They were Jason Webb's (Mark Brettschneider) parents. I've seen a picture of Higgins with Marilyn Chris somewhere in a scene in her apartment. If I can find it, I'll post it.

Recently rewatched Jessica and Natalie's brawl in the carriage house.

 

I forgot how much I loved the dynamic between Erin Torpey and Melissa Archer.

[DRW50]

 

They were great together. And they looked like sisters. 

[DeeeDee]

They fought like real sisters too.

 

I wish Erin would've stayed because I can't see OLTL trashing her version of Jessica the way they did Bree's.
