That wouldn't have been soapy fun. Todd used air quotes for rape, so he's fun, and John strings women along while pouting, so he's a hero.

The KAD killer stabbed Blair several times in the shower to get to John or Todd or something.

I think Marty should dissappear now. The should could kill her off to write SH out but bring her back having only faked her death. Marty returns later in the summer and goes on her serial killing spree that I suggested and she can also do what Deedee suggested, trying to ruin Todd annd torture John. With everyone think she's dead, they would never suspect her of tormenting and putting all of Llanview on edge. If she's gonna go out, Id rather she go out with a big bang

For Clint, redemption is a little thing known as heart-disease. Reminds me of how the show redeems Todd for his actions.

I think it was stupid for Natalie to verbally acknowledge that she was searching for the tape, once she had pulled Marty off the ledge. Natalie should have quietly searched for the tape, pocketed it, and left with her newborn baby.

Instead of a faux death for Marty she should run away to Europe & return around Christmas rehabilitated.

Have her apologize to John/Nat & Kelly while plotting to ruin Todd with Tomas (since Thorsten isn't returning & Blair will be with Roger's Todd).

Throw in Cole being released early from prison & Marty is somewhat happy, still a little crazy but also still viable.

The saddest thing is that nobody (Viki, Jess, Nora) is even aware of or around to help her issues.

Marty returns around Christmas but the show is over in January. Not enough time :(

as for the second part, with the way the writing is, I dont think any of them would care. All 3 shrugged it off the first time she went to St. Anne's. I dont recall anyone visiting her or expressing any concern for her ordeal.

Not Howarth. There's no way they got rid of Our Lady of the Perpetual Rape just to bring back Sir RapesaLot. I think that was just bad timing. There's no way the show would've purposely torpedoed the chance to re-victimize Marty. Plus I don't think RH is getting that much money. If the show was still alive, yes but he knew the show was canceled and this is just a temp job for him so he can collect a little extra cash.

I guess a better question is: who benefits from Haskell's exit? Definitely not RH.

I kind of feel like they may not want people to remember what Todd did to Marty. That would detract from this story they seem to think is cool or fun, about how RH's return will affect Todd and his harem.

But if she leaves in the next month or two (with help from a sympathetic Tomas) & returns around Christmas she has enough time to get a holiday miracle (Cole released), make peace with Nat/John/Kelly & plot to ruin Todd in time for the end of the show.

It doesn't have to be a long rehab arc just one that doesn't let her end up becoming a random soap psycho.

Touche. :(

Exactly.

He's totally gonna be used to "rehab" Todd.

I realize we cast a lot of aspersions on people's stated sexualities...but does anyone else's gaydar "ping" around Mr. Warlock? Or is it just me?

See, I read that too fast the first time, and I thought you called them "selfish black ho's." To which, I was going to say, "Well, at least OLTL is featuring Blacks for a change."

      In Loving Memory: Ruth Buzzi (Letitia Bradford, Days, 1983)

      Jason, just let me say that it was not my intent to any way impugn any of your data  or research. I'm very sorry if it came out that way. Obviously the person I got these 4 November episodes from has mislabeled files, multiples, which I was certainly unaware of.  When I am editing it is all about what I see & hear. Later, I find time for greater reflection.  Of course, I was suspicious from the very first instance where what I saw & heard did not agree with what it should have.  I'm very glad to know why.  If you find you are no longer interested in the edit, that is fine. I have no ego in this. I did it only to share it.

      I feel like Vernon and Anita need to not be hypocrites and try and take the heat off Bill in this case. It's clear that the family used him as a fixer and especially knowing he helped with Martin's situation, they need to either be quiet or support him. BTW...with Vanessa being in the hospital for food poisoning, am I the only one who thought Shanice was gonna say she's pregnant or had an STD? The only reason I say STD is because she hasn't had any memorable sex partners, but I definitely don't believe she just had food poisoning.

      Yeah, I mean I know that the name still pertains. I just laugh at it not now being called Arizona Dust, but, I admit it simply does not have the same ring to it. Above, that is interesting that Arizona had already come up before the crisis.

      Leslie and her family are from Chicago? Anita's background also includes being a former Chi-Town native? Might they connect this and go somewhere with it?

      In Loving Memory: Ruth Buzzi (Letitia Bradford, Days, 1983)

      By JAS0N47 · Posted

        1. 11/1/83 cast/set list:  

      Please register in order to view this content

          The "11/2/83" video you posted of Ruth Buzzi's scenes includes Roman and Hope in them, meaning the video you posted is actually 11/1/83, since Roman and Hope aren't in 11/2/83.   2. The video you posted of "11/2/83" has scenes with Roman and Hope. As you can see from my cast/set list, Roman and Hope are not in the 11/2/83 episode (see above note):   4573...11/2/83: Cast: Mickey, Julie, Doug, Maggie, Neil, Don, Marie, Alex, Liz, Andre as Tony, Gwen, Chris, Eugene, Sandy, Letitia, Charlene, Mrs. Whiting, Wanda/Guard, Dave, Delia, Saleslady # 1, Saleslady # 2, Figure in Dark, Raven/animal, Cats/animals, Birds/animals.   2.  11/3/83 :My video collection starts with 11/4/83. so I don't have the 11/1/83 or 11/3/83 video, but in addition to the cast/set list for 11/3/83, here is also the parking clearance call sheet for that day, showing Ruth was not only in the cast/set list but did work that day:     They even had hired the animal trainer and all the animals for the day, so It's sort of a certainty that her scenes were not cut that day, or it would have been a big waste of the budget. 3. As for 11/7/83, I just fast-forwarded through that whole episode myself. Letitia is in it from start to finish. It's her big final episode where she is killed. She starts the episode saying "Eugene, are you there?" In the next act, Marlena shows up and meets Letitia's lion. Later in the episode, Letitia is killed by "Eugene" (the Salem Slasher in a Eugene mask).   So, as we can see from your own post, the 11/2/83 date you have listed on that video is incorrect, since Hope and Roman are in that video but not in the 11/2/83 episode.It seems the dates you have on all your early November 1983 episodes are incorrect.   When you post videos and suggest that my data is incorrect, do you not first compare who is in the scenes and see if that matches who is in the episode? You didn't do that with the "11/2/83" episode, which based on Roman and Hope being in it means that is actually 11/1/83. Best to do something like that first before suggesting my data and research is incorrect.

      Within the Dupree family, I predict Vernon/Anita will be conflicted about what to do about Bill and his role in the whole Ted/Silk Press Sheila situation... especially since Bill knows where the particular bone about Martin is buried. Dani, Chelsea, and Naomi's reactions to what Bill possibly did isn't hard to guess.. but Hayley's reactions will be interesting to hear.  Especially given her recent pregnancy scare.. she might not be so much on Bill's side, or she'll totally surprise us and be totally on Bill's side.   Either way, I think Martin's secret will be the main focus in May sweeps.. with the fall out of the Eva secret playing out in the background... while the Joey/Vanessa/Doug thing continues to boil/develop.

      Looking back...Primetime Ratings from the 80's

      Hotel was The Love Boat on land but a little soapier. I will forever maintain that Hotel was a time slot hit. I don't believe that 1983/84 Hotel was a better show than Knots Landing.
