And another thing! How far did the Alan/Bobbie affair storyline go and what was the fallout? I vaguely recall it BITD and I'd thought they nipped it in the bud faster, but in rewatching Tony just caught on to them being at the same hotel in the wrong city. It's weird it just got memory-holed.

I imagine if not for the complaints or general negativity surrounding the show at the time they would have gone further into an actual affair. I guess the fallout would be Monica/Dorman (Tony and Bobbie's marriage was already dead so I don't think this is why he slept with Carly). They were already in counseling at this point, right? (Tony and Bobbie)

@FrenchFan Thank you again for the wonderful recaps. I wonder if anyone ever said the stories the show would have had for Augusta if she had stayed on as originally planned.

I had no idea for Augusta but I would have loved to see the character on screen at the time for sure.

I think so. Though I don't think Tony and Bobbie's marriage was dead in '95 or even early '96 from what I've been revisiting. They were really trying off and on and at least fitfully devoted from what I saw, but she almost sleeps with Alan and then other things kept on happening. Including Carly.

I know they were still trying...I always just assume after BJ died it was inevitable.

Thanks! 

I just looked on Youtube and a channel mentions this as January 1963. Someone in the comments said the date is accurate because it was the pilot. 

Does anyone know for sure?

It is impossible to be the pilot, because Angie appears in a better shape than in episode 1 and she meets Cynthia, but I am not sure

Thanks. So it definitely wasn't the pilot.

This is the episode that was on the Facebook page.

 

Kind of impossible for it to be January 1963 when the show hadn't even debuted yet.

I appreciate the viewable link, @DRW50!

Between this the ep of The Brighter Day you've told me about, I'll have a vintage-soap weekend!

Gracias!

I know there is more GH out there than other soaps of this era but still any time I see something new it's a surprise and a treat. We certainly need those these days. 

Thanks again to  @MissPalmer for alerting us.

Hear, hear!

Everyone who alerts the community to "new" vintage episodes deserves applause.

Thank you, @MissPalmer!

You're welcome! 😀
