I read somewhere that William Gray Espy who played the original Snapper Foster on Y&R and Mitch Blake on AW is back living in his hometown of Dothan, Alabama.

Supposedly Trish Stewart who played Chris Brooks Foster is living in Hot Springs, Arkansas & Pamela Peters Solow who played Peggy Brooks is living in NY.

I saw a bit of the Paley Center interview with the Y&R cast and when Melody Thomas Scott was taking questions, Roberta Leighton who played her sister Casey Reed stood up and asks why doesn't Nikki call her sister and surprised Melody. Melody remarked " I haven't seen or talked to you in years" and said she wanted her number after the show and would call her. Melody kind of acted a bit snotty. She also couldn't name all of Nikki's husbands......LOL

Lilibet Stern who played Patty Williams Abbott 1980-1983 now goes by her married name of Lilibet Iken. If you google her you can see how she looks today. She also owns some sort of business.

While that channel has a lot of content, I don't like how it is arranged. For example Guiding Light 1995 Playlist 3 has the some March 1995 clips, all of April's clips and the beginning of May's clips. Why wasn't a playlist created for each individual month? If you are looking for specific things it is really hard to find them. ETA: Granted there are a lot of channels that have this issue, and at times it keeps me from even attempting to watch classic clips as the part # whatever is arbitrary, there are no summaries or dates. Then again it may just me being extremely picky.

That being said it was nice that they clipped the Scott Hoxby (Cutter on GL) ad, I saw that recently and recognized him.

YT allows 200 videos (regardless of length) in each playlist. That's why some of the months overlap.

I've seen that commercial too, instantly recognized Hoxby's voice.

Mike posts summaries along with every individual clip he posts, not just episode summaries.

Yes I know about the limit of 200 videos in each playlist on YouTube. The way YouTube displays playlists is somewhat problematic. If you have many playlists they aren't all displayed on the channel main page. To see a full list of all lists you have to go to the videos section and view by playlist, which just shows the title of the list and thumbnails in the standard default display tho the other gives you titles of maybe 2-3 videos at most. So I tried search so I could see clip descriptions. I typed in March 1995 and the first five videos lists for that month were 126, 2, 10, 18 and 74...if you hit load more enough times eventually you find the correct playlist(s) for a month, though that isn't the fault of the uploader. If there is a simpler method let me know.

Unfortunately the one thing I was looking for from Fall 1994, I don't think they posted. I don't know if you recall it Katie or know if it is up on YouTube somewhere else (I have it on VHS tape with other montages, but the tape could be anywhere.) Basically it was a scene where Eleni (played by a temp recast) is setting up for a party at the Country Club. A classical sounding instrumental version of Hold on to Love is playing in the background and you see everyone else at home getting ready.

The other problems I listed where just general picky things I don't like and I wasn't speaking of that particular user. There are some Youtube channels that only have a character or couple name in a video title, without any further description beyond a #. The search function can't be used in those cases. I do appreciate the time it takes to post things on YouTube.com especially if they had to convert old VHS or even Betamax tapes to a digital format and I'm glad that other people have video collections they are willing to share.

Going back on topic of where are they now...does anyone have a list of all the actors who are going to be in new series this year? Is anyone checking out any shows solely because they cast someone liked from a soap?

Lisa Peluso talks about being saved. This is from May. It's CBN. Not a fan of CBN, but I thought some of her fans might want to see the video.

Last weekend, Rachel Miner revealed at a fan convention for Supernatural that she has MS.

    • Don't know if this has been posted; however, it appears the story bible, Shadows on the Wall, has been uploaded for anyone to snag here:  https://archive.org/details/shadows-on-the-wall-1 (rough draft) AND  https://archive.org/details/shadows-on-the-wall-1/page/91/mode/2up  
    • Major flaw! And that's why I said Dani would've been better off an screwed up kid (black sheep). Nicole got an award because she's doing important work. Depression is real, Mental illness is real. People are homeless and committing suicide in jails because they lack proper help. Yes, she modeled, but I mean, even Tyra pivoted into acting, talk shows, her own company, managing other models, etc.
    • I will admit to not liking John Bolger in the role of Phillip, but on rewatch, he has a really nice friend chemistry with Michael and Krista. And I think it's the only period of time where Phillip hasn't pulled Rick into some stupid scheme that ends up hurting the friendship.

      You're right about everything! The casino needs to go and it's ugly! The ugliest set on BTG.
    • Jayne Bentzen is the actress who played Nicole at that point. She joined Edge the year before, replacing Maeve McGuire.
    • Wait.....Anita is an EGOT, Vernon was an important Senator, and Dani was an international model (no matter how brief, although I thought she said she was on par with Tyra Banks(or someone)...meanwhile, Nicole's some nice psychologist/psychiatrist with an award on her wall...but Dani's hasn't added to the Dupree mystique?  I don't think the writers considered ever having any Dupree be less than utterly fabulously successful  and that's actually flaw in the structure of the show.  Oh, I forgot to say...Smitty acts like she stumbled into Vanessa's Only Fans account and paid for a picture of her dirty undies before realizing it was her.
    • I watched another batch of episodes and I have a sense of dread. I fear they are setting up a murder storyline with one of my favorite characters as the victim. I don't know if that would be considered a spoiler so won't reveal the character. If that's so, i will be extremely disappointed as this person has done Emmy caliber work and would create such a void on the show.  If I'm right, I think I know who the suspect will be and I would rather the suspect be murdered.  Joel Crothers's Miles has had more of a presence with his wife Nicole and I enjoy both actors. Crothers is just so yummy and charismatic. Don't know who plays Nicole but I like their relationship.  Ann Williams has been phenomenal as Margo. Margo is desperate to keep Eliot and make April happy. Williams had a nice scene with Kibbee's Geraldine about Logan and the baby. Eliot has been so slimy and menacing but he's so watchable. April and Draper are still fighting over the baby and something has happened to April to land her in the hospital. I just keep hoping she'll kick Draper out. The man is such a pain. Raven needs to come back and sleep with him. She can liven him up. Ann Flood and Frances Fisher had a wonderfully written scene where Deborah confesses her feelings for Owen. The writing and acting for this scene was first-rate. I want more of Flood. It's good to see Fisher getting more to do. Steve and his low cut shirts have been sidelined lately. The writers are setting up a Deborah/Nola confrontation.  Paige and Brian are still pretty much an afterthought. The movie plot is coming along nicely and there was a great episode where Margo had a party for the movie at her penthouse. Still enjoying the show. 
    • See, I imagine it as some kind of "private" room within a bigger casino.
