According to the Wikipedia, the O'Neill family (all except Pete) was introduced by Sam Hall and Peggy O'Shea.

 

Pete was introduced solely by Peggy O'Shea.

 

Mr. and Mrs. Corrington were there for such a short time, I am not sure if they introduced any character (except maybe Alex Crown/Coronel and Rob).

On All My Children introduced Opal's biracial child, the father was shown.   I was hoping that the mother or the grandmother would be shown and Ellen Holly would play his relative.

 

She could have also played the grandmother of Reggie who comes to Pine Valley to milk the Montgomery family for money.

 

I have no idea who Lillie Belle Barber is.

 

Lillie Belle was the mother of Olivia and Drusilla Barber. When we met her, we learned she had favored Olivia and felt resentment and bitterness toward Dru all their lives. The family did not realize how much (aside from Dru), and when they did, it caused a major rift in the family. They learned that Lillie Belle had a serious mental illness, and attempted to come together for the first time as a family. 

 

This was about 25 years ago. The very talented actress, Norma Donaldson, passed away many years ago.

Wasnt Adrian's Bio Dad on AMC, Frankie Faision the same actor who played Destiny's Dad (Grandpa) on OLTL?

Olivia and Drucilla are two that I do not remember.

 

I think that Frankie Faison did appear on One LIfe to Live.   He was also on The Edge of Night.

I thought that Jeffrey was the son of Allison Perkins.

The information on Wikipedia is highly inaccurate. Wikipedia shows the Corringtons writing for OLTL in 1983. Henry Slesar and Sam Hall were still head writing OLTL in January 1984, right before the O'Neills were introduced. The Corringtons became head writers sometime later that year. I believe Peggy O'Shea was still at Capitol  in early 1984 at the time the O'Neills arrived.

I remember that he belonged to that cult. At the time, it wasn't clear to me what his origins were.  I haven't watched since I first saw it, so I can't be entirely sure.  Where he came from seemed murky to me.

I always was curious, is that Carla standing next to Clint at, 0:04-0.06 and 0:09-0:14 in this clip?? I know the year should be 1980, since EH was still on the show before she left the first time.
 

 

Yes, that is Carla.   Carla, Wanda, and Vinnie #3 were all on these episodes.   (not sure about Ed)  Also on these episodes were Mick (one of my favorite characters on the show), Johnny, Tina, and Samantha.   I remember that Tina was trying to get Mick in a compromising position (at a bribe from Asa) in order to break up Mick and Samantha and to leave Samantha to Asa.  Brad, however, was wise to what Tina was doing.

 

Jeffrey's uncle was introduced into the show on the next-to-the-last or the last episode.   Some mention was made of the uncle's sister and the mother of Jeffrey.

Thanks! I figured it was her as EH has a distinct look even from a distance.

She is a beauty!   You should see her in the movie Take a Giant Step!   She plays a party girl type and is stunning!

Carl Peterson (Ron Raines) was not Jeffrey's uncle - he was his 'mentor' and benefactor, essentially his adoptive father. Peterson was a very well-known business tycoon and philanthropist whose arrival in Llanview was the talk of the town at the end of OLTL 2.0, but it was quickly revealed he was part of the Triskelion cartel - the 'tattoo organization' that had masterminded Victor's abduction and was threatening Todd and his family. Peterson was the emerging new villain on the scene, and quickly began attempting to romance the newly-single Dorian.

 

Jeffrey was working for Peterson and the cartel in secret while posing as Viki's protege - he was drugging Clint to make him unstable. Peterson was also the brother of Alison Perkins, who he'd used to imprison Victor, and who he sent to attack Clint in the 2.0 finale.

 

We never learned who Jeffrey's biological family was, but as they were invested in the character I expect it would've been someone important.

What was the point of getting rid of Joe Riley so abruptly?

Lee Patterson quit.
