These are great. I especially love the ATWT family reunion (I didn't recognize the woman - I guess that's Don's wife Mary), the GL Mindy wedding reception, the BLAZE for Reva/Kyle, and that wonderful caricature for GL's Emmy win.

I think you probably already have everything the rest of us posted. :lol:

Poor Kim Zimmer, they make her look like a rough sea creature in that wedding dress Rumors ad.

I love the Capitol ad where the spire of the building is the woman's cleavage.

That first B&B premiere ad is kind of tacky, and talk about fetishizing Caroline's virginity...

This DAYS ad w/ Genie Francis is fantastic. I am not a fan of hers, at all, but it is a great ad!

FANTASTIC! Its sexy and edgy and pulls me right in. Too bad ABC daytime has none of this anymore.

Um, i dont think thats too bad. LOL. They would be cheesy is done today, IMHO.

Whats the story of Mindle on GL and the reception?

I found a ton of old tv ads and looked through them for the soap ones. http://vintagetoledotv.squarespace.com/ is worth checking out if your into old tv ads.

as for having them already, id rather doubles than nothing ;)

Zimmer looks aful in that but great in a lot of the others

Well I think we might have had one or two you didn't, so I hope this helped your collection!

The Mindy story is that at her reception, her father, Billy Lewis, had been hypnotized to shoot his half-brother, Kyle Sampson.

classicGL on Youtube has a lot of this. It starts here, some of the most stunning location footage ever on a soap.

She looks like Brooke...lol

Thanks Carl. I was young so I didnt realize this. I did love he and Sarah. I still have vivid memories of him going to Mendorra to save her and them escaping on skis

Did they ever do a Carly/Bo/Billie triangle? I was under the impression that he and Carly were pretty much done and she was on her way out by the time he fell for Billie

CLASSIC!

    • It sure was!  With respect, how does that make sense?  These men are young, that seems of touch in 2025. 
    • I hope this played better than it sounds, because I'm imagining two separate scenes (the attack by Arnie, and later Charles getting shot). In my mind, it should have been a fluid single sequence. I wonder if or how often "bastard" was uttered in this scene. Fare thee well, Christopher Reeve. I've said it before, but pop culture's gain was daytime's definite loss. Imagine seeing HIM day after day, year after year, decade after decade, conceivably until they stopped producing soaps in NYC.   Well, that answers my "bastard" question. Good lord, the roads of Rosehill are packed with high-strung drivers and/or pedestrians. More sequences that I hope played better than they sound.

    • I think Ben had already left while under Marland and only returned briefly to reconcile with Eve. The whole thing confuses me as I thought for a long time that Eve left the show to go be with him and that was when they reconciled, but it seems like he returned, they got back together, then he left and maybe they were still together until she left to join him? I have no idea.  It does seem like the interim writers were using some characters like Justin and Helena who were quickly dumped under Kobe/Long, which is a shame. Helena is one of those characters who likely always had a shelf life but Rose Alaio was such a vibrant screen presence, if Kobe/Long had just been patient, she likely would have fit in well in the Reva era.
    • Also, the lawsuit story was not the right story to bring Naomi and Bill into a court battle since those types of lawsuits are usually resolved via settlements.
    • I know that Sara did eventually become Carrie's therapist, but I was curious if the show had her make comments regarding Carrie's stunts of making it seem as though Justin was cheating on Jackie.  Given that Justin cheated on Sara with both Jackie and Brandy, I wondered if it was wise of her to counsel Carrie given the conflict of interest involved. @DRW50I think once Adam/Sara end up married.. Marland didn't see any reason to explore Sara's personal life after the actor playing Adam was released.  I know that Sara lasts until at least Christmas 1982 on the show.. but I don't think she ended up staying on for very long into 1983. The period between Marland quitting and Pam Long starting was the perfect time to clean house on characters that had outgrown their usefulness  (i.e. Ben, Evie, Sara, Jennifer, Morgan).. and tying up stories started by Marland that were too complex (Mona Enright, Mark/Jennifer/Amanda triangle).
    • Unpopular opinion:  The focus on the soap opera tropes over the mysteries and crimes was partly what did the show in.  Also, featuring characters not involved in the legal, police, and criminal elements also hurt the show and took away what made it unique. Featuring characters like Jody, Raven, Sky, etc hurt the show long term.  The show ABCified starting in 1976/1977 and then went through a youthification period starting in 1981.  
    • I feel like the lawsuit storyline was resolved quickly because the show didn’t want to spring for more sets.
    • It's been a while, but we have seen the foyer to Bill and Hayley's house as well as the exterior entrance to their house. The foyer was first seen in the premiere episode when Hayley met Vanessa at the house.
