Was it a miss to not pair Steve and Jessie? I'm not so sure. Frank and Doris Hursley had written for Search for Tomorrow for awhile, I'm told, and they would have understood a platonic male/female relationship from writing for Jo and Stu on "Search". I think one of the reasons that Steve and Jessie weren't paired up was because of that perennial soap demon, age. Even by the time "GH" had some longevity under its belt, its leading man and woman were showing signs of aging, and I think that is ultimately why they didn't give Steve and Jessie good story by the late 70s, even though both were phenomenal, gifted actors.

I didn't even notice poor Norma.

I guess these never had soap people, with a few exceptions. At least they did have their own daytime promos for Still The One.

Genie Francis pops up in the 1981 fall season promo. (I bet Geary hated that)

What was the Monica story (the call from the foster home)?

Gail is so soothing. And look - back when soaps treated therapy seriously. I guess this must have been a certain passion of Gloria Monty's.

I don't mind Grant but I'm not sure I would care that much about two of him. Which one kidnapped Anna? The one in the flannel shirt?

I love Lesley but that Webber family setup probably would have gotten on my nerves at the time. How soon after this did she "die"?

The two Grants. Not the best storyline in GH history. But it did lead to the fantastic Anna story.

I'm not really a fan of the Rick and Lesley of this era either. I think they needed more drama and less light fluffy material.

Brock was such a jerk.

    • TBH, I found Felicity's dialogue in those scenes where she encouraged Chad and Cat to admit their feelings for one another more offensive than Xander yelling (although both are bad).  And, I don't get why there is any question of Xander's behavior being offensive, given that he knew that Felicity deserved an apology. I like giving the character more to do, because there is a value in representing a person with a congenital disorder being employed, given that the unemployment rate in that community tops 83%.  I just hope they find a voice for the character that matches her functioning ability. As for Cat, I wonder if she is going to inherit any of Clyde's money?  And that was the reason for the phone call.  I know he's not dead, but he could have named her family as the beneficiary of some insurance policy if he were to be incapacitated.  And the call could have been an attorney trying to reach her to give her money.
    • Oh you may have been watching the Teresa/Tom storyline...or "Terry the tumor" as she was called.
    • Are these new?! Damn, he is in the prime of his life. 
    • He is a 40 year old large grown man "raising his voice" and calling a teenage girl "careless".  That's inappropriate.  I am not going to argue at the octave of his voice although I would consider it yelling.  Felicity was visibly upset.  She also has special needs, but it would be wrong to do that to anyone in general.  Xander was out of line.  He didn't immediately apologize or admit he was wrong until Princess Sarah was okay.  Idk, go find your wife's epipen instead of berating a young girl.  Or, you know, Sarah could have asked if there was any pistachio in her scone as a pre-caution.  That's how most people with allergies that severe order things. I do think this story or plot point is silly, but acting like Xander did nothing wrong is just strange.  Even if Felicity DID do something wrong was he just going to continue to go on and on while his wife was going into shock?  That's the proper reaction lol.
    • I didn't get that so far so I'll have to keep that in mind if I ever pick back up.  I must have chosen bad episodes because what I saw had some really bad Irish accents from supporting/day players. They were hard to get through and I just didn't have the patience to deal with them. I don't think these accents would be allowed to go through today. I assume these accents were ironed out as the show went on--reminded me of Deas's terrible accent on GL that was dropped because it was so bad.

    • It's shoddy journalism. Pretty much says all you need to know about Parade as a source.  
    • It could still be possible.  Ashley could know who her dad is, but her mother stating that her father was a ruthless man so she opted to listen to her mom and kept her distance. It also could be a change in storyline direction since we're now approaching the period of episodes being filmed when the show debuted. The actress playing Ashley posted an IG two weeks ago with her saying she got to work with new characters and old time favorites.  So I do wonder if some new details will emerge between Episode 51 and whatever she was filming at the end of April.
    • He didn't scream. He accused her of being careless in a slightly raised voice. Then he immediately admitted he had overreacted.
