I think Asher, Damon, Colby, and Maya were all college-aged/fresh out of high school. Colby was still in school when she had those storylines with Petey and Sean (whom I LOVED her with).

I hate that they got rid of Brent Weber. I've loved him ever since Point Pleasant.

Speaking of, how did they write out Sean Montgomery? Considering he wasn't on for very long and didn't do too much (other than Colby) while he was there, I think Sean could come back and be a blank slate for AMC's current writers.

I think he just vanished. Presumably he went back to Seattle.

• Greetings to you all from “Pine Valley!” In fact, I just returned the other night from a very successful 5 weeks of shooting "All My Children" in Connecticut, getting my life back on track on the home front since, but I've been wanting to address many of your comments/questions re: the news that AMC/OLTL is now going to be airing on Hulu and iTunes twice a week each, rather than the 4 times per week previously airing. First, I'd like to emphasize the positives that don't seem to be getting enough attention since this news had been reported, which very much deserves mentioning. Our show was number one in viewing during the 1st week of airing on both Hulu and iTunes, while maintaining an extremely strong showing within the top 5 each week since! That's news definitely worth celebrating, due in greater part to all of our dear, loyal viewers who have been watching faithfully since their return. So please accept our sincere collective thanks to you all, apart from whom we never could have accomplished any of this. Please understand, the decision was made out of our producers being sensitive to the viewing patterns and busy lives of all our faithful viewers. They were able to analyze by the 3rd week, many viewers were still just watching shows from the 1st week, thereby having fallen behind by 12 hours of viewing at that time already; if they were watching both shows. Their decision was based on their genuine desire to prevent any of you from falling so far behind, whereas you begin to experience catching up as an obligation, or worse, as a burden. The content and stories of these shows are being produced as moving much faster than they originally were on network, with each episode being substantive and important not to miss. Also, even though they're half-hour in length, that's 25 mins of show time compared to 35 mins of show time on a 1 hour network soap. Not much of a difference, especially considering the density of each episode airing compared to those of the 1 hour network shows. Even those shows prepare themselves for viewers dropping off several days within the week, knowing that not all their episodes will be seen in their entirety, which is why they’re known for moving slower in pace and story, preventing those of you from missing story if any given show is not seen. Because of how fast our shows move, we don't have that luxury, wishing you to miss nothing. Considering that many of our favorite nighttime shows are 1 hour in length per week, with only 13 episodes per season, our 1 hour of shows each week, at 110 or more for the year, is again, an embarrassment of riches by comparison for those of us who love these shows and are excited to have the ability to enjoy them once again. Yes, it's now "Anytime" rather than "Daytime," and our producers are committed to helping us all enjoy these shows at our leisure, without the stress attached to falling way behind. With the great number of episodes being offered for this year, I’m confident that we’ll all be satisfied with the many hours of viewing pleasure available to us all. We, as a cast and production team, are extremely proud of our beloved shows airing, and can’t be more grateful to all of you for your overwhelming expressions of excitement and support for all we’re doing to bring these iconic shows back for you to enjoy. We’re also sincerely humbled by your very vocal expressions of love and enthusiasm for what you’ve all been seeing. It is ours, and most importantly, Prospect Park’s intention to do whatever possible to enable us to continue bringing these cherished shows into your homes, whether via your flat screens, your tablets, computers, or even your cell phones for many, many more years, and hopefully, generations to come. Group hug : )

Sean did vanish. That character was really wasted - good actor, good part, nothing happening. But then so many legacy and historical characters were in that same place at the time. McTavish flooded the canvas with them - Jeff, Barbara, Sean, Bobby, Sam - and then did virtually nothing with any of them or the very talented actors in the parts.

Awww even if he's just spouting the company line, nice of him to give fans such a lengthy message.

I think he just vanished. Presumably he went back to Seattle.

Along with Barbara (which was a wasted return...)

Sean did vanish. That character was really wasted - good actor, good part, nothing happening. But then so many legacy and historical characters were in that same place at the time. McTavish flooded the canvas with them - Jeff, Barbara, Sean, Bobby, Sam - and then did virtually nothing with any of them or the very talented actors in the parts.

That was just around when McTavish's last run really ran off the rails, I believe--there was a lot of wasted characters on the canvas.

McTavish did write a fair amount for Sean, from what I remember, she seemed to try to write the Montgomerys as a certain family unit, and he had a fair amount of story with Colby. Once she left the show seemed to lose interest.

I've forgotten about him until just now. I've always had difficult accepting Sean due to the fact that he was, in essence, used to replace Reggie. They shipped Reggie off to basketball camp, gave Sean his room, and that was that. I don't recall much else since I fast forwarded his scenes after his initial introduction. I know he banged Colby and she crashed a yacht as a result or something. Other than that... I don't remember him.

Don't. Just don't. It still hurts.

Didn't Sean also have sex with Zach's psycho ex wife Hannah? I remember that the show bought her in for a short stint, then wrote her out... then the regime changed and she returned. She was suppose to be paired with Tad, but after a brief fling.. she becomes unhinged, then sleeps with Sean.. then dies?

Am I remembering all that correctly??

Hannah came close to having sex with him but ultimately just left him tied up in her room while she went after Zach or Kendall with a gun.

Yeah pretty much. Like I said earlier, that was around when McTavish's writing became really unhinged--like her or not, many online even wondered if she was still writing the show (I think she was.) leading into the Satin Slayer, etc, etc.

I hate that they got rid of Brent Weber. I've loved him ever since Point Pleasant.

Has Brent retired from acting? He has no major imdb credits after AMC. (I thought I was the only one who watched Point Pleasant....)

A number of younger leading men were wasted around that era. Reggie was first, I think, but Sam as well--and I'm sure others.

I'm reading this and thinking of Sean Reingold on OLTL. Then "Who is Reggie?". Then he banged Colby. I knew I was in a confused state. West Virgina perhaps?
