Received my James Stenbeck DVD in the mail today. Eeeeeeeeeeeeeee......I have skimmed through all the episodes and I do mean skimmed through and this DVD is hands down the best release so far. It even beats out the first 20 episode release. So many characters are featured in the episodes. Some who were on other networks/soaps..some OLTL future stars and AMC ones too. This is the DVD to get.

And Andrew kavovit....damn....so darn cute/hot...lol...and he still is now...what is he in hs 30s or my age now......wish he would have never left the role of Paul. I'd love to see him on TV again. By far the best Paul.

I can't say enough about this DVD.

Roger, please try and track Elaine Princi down and interview her for We Love Soaps. I met her many times and she is a lovely lady. Thank you for including the episode where Bob and Miranda marry on the latest dvd. While they weren't a popular pairing, it was great seeing her. Elaine had several great soap roles. A little known fact is that Elaine was an extra on OLTL in the very early 1980's and she was told that she would never get a contract role on OLTL because she looked too much like Robin Strasser. Oh the irony!

I've seen the first 4 episodes of the James Stenbeck DVD. A lot of Jeff.....I like Jeff...he reminds me of Tom Hughes...speaking of...not sure which episode it was but Justin Deas looks fing hot! I love the rivarly between James and John. I floved the 81 episode when John got the upper hand with James. Love seeing Gunnar again as well. I am midway through the five episode and Miranda and Bob are dull as dirt...lol

I had forgotten about Ariel...I liked her in the canvas....but dont care for Greta...well this one..I preferred the later one...the one that calls Em a whore....lol. I've noticed some sets that were still around during ATWT end...like Stewart house....Barbara's place....

I am paying attention to the credits....interesting who wrote what and who was EP at the time.....and the directors as well

I hadnt realized how boring Dee was...I remember her but man is she a bore...lol

I am on episode 6....Come fly with me.....love seeing young Dusty, Karen(who I had forgotten about) and Gunnar with HBS as Margo in the episode. I particuarly didnt care for Maggie, Lyla sister...how was she written out?? And I didnt know Ariel was still on the show till about 84. I enjoyed the remote in episode 5...and the starting rivarly between Craig and Steve. I'm not sure if the Dobsons continued the John vs James rivarly from the previous writers. What is up with Lisa's hair....lol...At first I thought she was Lucille Ball or Carol Burnett.....lol. I noticed that Paul Lammers directing was pretty bad back then but became so great during his later years on ATWT.

Oh dear....Kirk McColl and Bob Hughes scene...priceless! And a different Frannie.....glad we got Julianne and Mary Ellen cause this Frannie was so dull too....I am not sure if the Dobsons knew how to write for the younger set.

From what I've seen of Karen she seems like a very complex character. It's a shame she was later totally forgotten. Another one who seemed to be forgotten as soon as she left. It's strange at times to see some of the women like Karen who never would have gotten a look in by the mid-80's, as ATWT female characters were more black or white and much less fun.

    • John Black actually was the ultimate good guy soap hero. So I don’t mind the town gushing over him. It’s deserved.
    • Be glad it wasn't a Perry production.

    • I love my girl, but nope he's pathetic. 250K and now he's put her business at risk.   L O S E R

    • The whole town gushing over John Black as if he was a saint is eye rolling.  I guess death really colors people's memories over his many flaws, but I guess that is normal and human nature. I'm still confused as to why Leo hasn't been written out.  The actor stank up two soaps with his sub par acting, what does he have on TPTB's to remain on these soaps.   What's the point of Cat?  I hope the new head-writers figure out her purpose and develop her character. And I much prefer scenes not focusing on John's death because life does go on for the world when someone passes.  
    • Wasn't there a break in Zaslow's first run? I thought Roger was off-screen for a while, and when Zas came back, Roger was hiding at the boarding house and Nola figured out there was something hinkey about him. I'm pretty sure Simon chose to leave the first time and was replaced by RVV. I don't want to assume Jordan's issues played a role in his first departure, but Maeve said in an interview that at some point, it became very hard for her to work with him and she asked to work with him less. That seems to fit 1986, where suddenly Vanessa is essentially Ross' law clerk and not at every Lewis family moment.
    • He needs to divorce her arse with her constant cheating.   She's no better than Doug... she's F*cking pathetic.
    • I didn't know of any interruptions for Maeve Kinkead after her 1997 return. Her runs would then be 1981-1987, 1989-1996, 1997-2000, short arcs until the end. I knew Maureen Garrett second run was interrupted from a 2009 interview but I couldn't recall the exact year. Her runs would then be 1976-1980, 1988-2000, short arcs until the end.
    • As I said in May, I have no problem with Martin and Bradley being married. You can still do all the fun introloper storylines with them as you do everyone else. Both men of a certain age, and it is very believable for them to have either a first love or have been previously married. And, you can do it without either of them cheating!

       I said something similar during the premiere week. Bill was the perfect age to play Martin as Vernon and Anita's child. I would've much preferred this version, but oh well.
    • I don't know how you want to count Maeve. She "retired" in '00, but would come back for appearances. I don't know however if she made an appearance in '01 or '03. In '02 I believe she came back for Josh and Reva's wedding. I assume she came back when Gina Tognoni took over the role of Dinah. And I know she was back for Ross' memorial service. Maureen Garrett was around until at least '00. I don't think Holly was in town when Ben returned though. I just got pissed off about Jerry all over again.
    • So, pretty sure Zaslow, Garrett, Kinkead, and Newman all chose to leave the first time. (If that's wrong, please correct me). Bernau - not sure why he left the first time. Was it voluntary? Or did they decide to write him out? They were writing so many out during that time period. It always seemed odd to me that they introduced Alex, FINALLY giving him someone he could talk to, and then he was written out. Or maybe that's why they made Alex his sister, so she could take his place as the head of the Spaulding family? Would love more intel on that if anyone knows. Simon - was he replaced by RVV? Or did he voluntarily leave the first time? It seems to me like one of those times TPTB decided to sex up or glamorize a character (and it clearly flopped). If he was fired, interesting he came back. Again, would love if someone could spill the tea. Clarke - I've always assumed he left because of his personal issues, but not sure if that was the case the first time.
