Members Soaplovers Posted January 26, 2012 Members Share Posted January 26, 2012 From what I recall, his first year or so at ATWT was not quite as reserved/cold as his later years on ATWT were... Perhaps, if he had stayed at GL for more then two years, he might have turned GL into a more reserved/colder show.... who is to say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted January 26, 2012 Members Share Posted January 26, 2012 As The World Turns and Guiding Light Back in New York City, he was asked by CBS Daytime to temporarily assume the head writing reins at As the World Turns, which he did for thirteen weeks. In 1979, he assumed the head writing reins of New York-based Guiding Light. Marland's run on GL produced popular storylines and characters. One character Marland introduced was Nola Reardon, played by Lisa Brown. The uncoventional Nola started as a villainess and became the heroine of the show. Another story was an envelope-pushing story that featured the character of Carrie Todd Marler (played by Jane Elliot). Carrie was diagnosed with multiple personalities, and Marland had barely delved into her psychosis when Elliot's contract was abruptly terminated by Executive Producer Allen M. Potter in 1982; Marland resigned in protest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted January 26, 2012 Members Share Posted January 26, 2012 Interesting that the ratings for GL dropped once Marland left and ATWT passed it in the ratings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Dan Posted January 28, 2012 Members Share Posted January 28, 2012 Yikes... Haven't posted on this board in eons. Just dropped in to the conversation since my DVDs arrived today. Been mostly skipping around, but there is one scene that I keep rewinding. I love the 1988 episode. It must have been Maureen Garrett's second or third day back and she has a great scene with Elizabeth Dennehey's Blake, talking about not liking being back because of the "ghosts." Sigh... If they only knew what was about to happen... I'm a little concerned with the covering up of the music on this episode, mostly, that you can still mostly hear it if you listen closely enough. I really hope it's enough to avoid copyright infringment suits because I want more of these collections. EDIT... Watching this episode as I'm posting... And Holy Crap Alex and Fletcher's plane is about to go down and we all know what that means... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted January 28, 2012 Members Share Posted January 28, 2012 Dan! When this set was announced, I thought about you and wanted to hear your thoughts. I only ordered yesterday, so it should be a few days. I haven't even had time to open the ATWT set yet, but will eventually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Dan Posted January 28, 2012 Members Share Posted January 28, 2012 I'll say this. It definitely beats watching poor quality clips on Youtube. For episodes that are almost 30 years old, the quality is very good. EDIT: Just let me say this. But, God I miss THIS show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ~bl~ Posted January 28, 2012 Members Share Posted January 28, 2012 Dan I MISS THIS show...the good stuff, not the bad stuff, though some not so great stuff on the set. I so far have only watched the Kelly/Morgan wedding episode which is barely 40 minutes, was something cut like a song from Mike Bauer (Don Stewart)? He goes to talk to the guy who did the ceremony and has a guitar, mentions singing and then the scene ends. MOL tweeted about how he wondered if the actors are getting residuals, so are they? Also will there be anything special coming up in regards to the releases? I'm trying to watch in disk order (though not watching all episodes), so I am a long way to the MG 1988 scenes...

Members DRW50 Posted January 28, 2012 Members Share Posted January 28, 2012 The Youtube clips do have Mike singing a song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Dan Posted January 28, 2012 Members Share Posted January 28, 2012 "Dan I MISS THIS show...the good stuff, not the bad stuff, though some not so great stuff on the set." Yeah... There are some duds in here. Mostly the 2005-2007 stuff (I don't include the 2009 episode since it was a last-minute addition and not a terrible episode for PeapackGL).

Members Soapsuds Posted January 28, 2012 Members Share Posted January 28, 2012 Glad to see you around Dan. It's a shame that one of the episodes is edited. I haven't seen that episode yet. I am on the 1989 one....Harley...ugh...cant stand her..but flove Mallet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
