Which parts were confusing to you? Is that the one where John falls down the stairs? To me that episode was kind of dull, mostly enlivened by Lisa and Kim looking about 50 times more glam than the show's young heroines at that point.

The movie? Who were those people, and the part about some woman having financial control over another woman's money? I had no idea who those two were as they both disappeared. I recognized John, Margo, Lisa and Kim, and Steve, but for so many of the people I didn't recognize.

I had some of the same questions you did when I first saw these.

The woman involved with the movie is a recast of Natalie (first played by the one and only Judith Chapman). She was the biological mother of Carol's daughter (she'd dropped the baby off on the doorstep of Carol and Jay, Carol's husband/the baby's father, who was dead by the 1981 episode). A few years later, she wanted back in the child's life, so she was paying the babysitter to spy for her.

The woman with the financial control was Connie, aunt to Hayley, and one of James Stenbeck's women. Hayley (played by Dana Delaney) had money and James wanted Connie to get it so he can have the money.

I want a date on the GL set already. The part that the other soaps (that aren't ATWT or GL) will be online only is sad as I bet there are some people who don't have access. They don't mention a price for the streaming...that's interesting.

I was made to believe "online only" meant they would only sell SFT/Edge, etc. DVD sets online (though I agree that I can't see them selling well so maybe they will just be streaming).

I'm curious to find out how the streaming will work. Will there be a cost? I'd venture that there probably will be, though I don't see it being too high.

It makes sense to do all of them online only until there is demand for more. I could see Another World doing well in stores as it's still fairly recent. Might be a good idea to do themed collections with episodes from all of their soaps so fans unfamiliar with some shows will check out the others. Like a big Christmas themed box set. Or anniversaries.

BTW, I noticed my episode 3 on the Xmas dvd doesn't work either. It plays 6 minutes then freezes.

YAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!:) I am so happy more ATWT and GL DVD sets will be available online and at stores.

I'll be getting GL too!

I also thought it meant online DVD sales only but it could mean also streaming only.

Chris email them and they will send you a replacement DVD. That's what happened with my DVD...freezes up at the 6 minute mark.

    • I think they’re desperately trying to cover his awful tattoos. But anyway them being unable to style short kings properly has been a major pet peeve of mine for a while now.  I honestly don’t understand what some people expect from actors to even begin considering them for recognition. Let’s be real—awards mostly mean that an actor is respected by their peers and has some level of cultural relevance. Actual judgment on the acting itself? That’s often secondary—highly subjective and shaped by the times. I completely agree on both points. If you’re an actor or a dancer you shouldn’t get any tattoos (sorry not sorry). Tomas’ tattoos are ugly too. And regarding the couples- you’re completely right. These writers are unable to write romance.   Further comments: - Kat cannot be this dumb to keep tampering with evidence over and over again. And I’m officially not a fan of the actress—every time she’s in a scene with Leslie, she doesn’t seem intimidated at all. She plays it like comic relief, which is just too much, especially when paired with Leslie’s histrionics and over-the-top antics. Leslie is older, dangerous, and has literally been portrayed as homicidal—Kat should be at least a little scared. • I also didn’t like Kat playing damsel in distress with the hotel manager. It gave off the same weird energy as Dani with the cop. I would’ve much preferred the version Paul Raven suggested, with her sneaking in through housekeeping. • And yes, Dani again accused Hayley of faking the pregnancy—this time even specifying she might be using a pillow under her shirt. (No fake miscarriage being mentioned) I stand by my take: this is ridiculous writing. No one in the real world—except us, the chronically online soap watchers—would even think of such a conspiracy theory. Haley is no Beyoncé. • What in the world was Chelsea wearing in her hair the other day? And this whole thing with Madison is beyond cringe. Chelsea’s coming off as needy and toxic—basically like every other Dupree. • I’m glad the casino storyline is moving forward, but it’s still boring as hell. Honestly, I’d be so here for a plot twist where Vanessa and Doug take Joey out. • The direction and editing lately have been rough. Abrupt cuts, weird pacing… something just feels off overall. There’s a strange uneasiness to how it’s all coming together. • And finally: Tomas is too much of a saint. Where are the messy sluts when you need them? (Vanessa doesn’t count.)
    • I was watching some August 1987 episodes and they brought back so many memories. I had some thoughts: Lisa and Jamie were so dull. Lisa was such a nothing character. It boggles my mind that so much story was centered around her in such a short amount of time. Joanna Going is a talented actress, but the material was just not there.  It was so good to see Wallingford and Mitch again. I know there was talk about Felicia a while back, but these episodes reminded me how integral Felicia was for the show.  Sally Spencer was done so dirty. She is turning in superb performances in an icky storyline. I wish she had stuck around longer. She has chemistry with everyone. The McKinnons should have lasted longer. Spencer had some strong stuff with Stephen Schnetzer and Mary Alexander. AW waster such a talented actress by getting rid of her. Justice for Cheryl too. I also missed Ed Fry when he left. Sandra Ferguson was a star from the moment she came on. She was charismatic and just popped. She had immediate chemistry with RKK and blended in well with Wyndham and Watson. I'd forgotten about the teenage Matthew.  I have no memory of Peggy Lazarus. She must not have lasted long. Was the original plan for John that he was going to turn out to be the twins' real father?      
    • If the new and improved copies that @rsclassicfanforever has uploaded can be manually moved into the "by month, by year" folders, that would be awesome. I personally don't think it's necessary to keep the older versions (which either have Dutch subtitles hard coded on them, or are lesser in picture quality). That's a lot of valuable drive space that could be cleared. Just my view but can appreciate others may feel differently. The structure had been by month by year previously, so I think it would be easier to conform to that, where so much prior work to get it to that format has already been done. Hopefully you can "drag and drop" so the new copies are in the right month/year? Re Clips, I never look at them now we pretty much have the episodes in full. Appreciate others may use, however. Thanks for all your hard work here @BoldRestless!
    • Oh yes defintely, Josh Griffith repeats and repeats the same storylines.
