I found this treasure just randomly, but these really were the glory days of the soap genre.

Thanks for sharing! Interestingly enough, I don't think I'd ever heard the term "super character" used. I lol'd at that The Price Is Right moment when that girl's girls were fixing to pop out and she pulled up her tube top. Boy was she barking up the wrong tree. I wonder who's the crap cook Lemay's talking about. And Wyndham looks like she's about to belt out Tomorrow.

I wish someone would upload the Susan Lucci episode with Joan Collins.

EON had a large male audience, if I recall. So no wonder they all wanted a kiss from Raven (Sharon Gabet)!! Also...I think this footage is proof positive why Tony Geary never won a Grammy. LOL

Yeah, that singing was painful. And all of that kissing skeeved me out. You don't know WHAT people got lurking on dey lips...

I didn't realize how popular EON or Raven was. I love Raven!!! I am also really glad they showed vets like Vicki Wyndham and I am really really surprised they showed Mary Stuart.

Get the feeling Geary only agreed to the interview to showcase his "other talents."

The clothes and hair are VERY 80's. Victoria Wyndham's bad perm, Sharon Gabet's tube top and Chris Bernau with the classic 80's preppy look with the aligator polo, khaki's and loafers/topsiders without socks.

I never got the fan appeal of Tony Geary. The segment on Bill & Susan Hayes is edited out for some reason.

Yeah, I wanted to see Bill and Susan Hayes being interviewed - I'd much rather have watched them than that footage of Tony Geary bumping and grinding onstage. It seriously made me want to vomit.

Was Harding Lemay writing The Doctors when this was filmed? Sharon Gabet/Raven on EoN of course also played Melinda Cramer on OLTL.

LOL.....I guess Tony was trying to compete with Rick Springfield. His album probably had some awesome cheesy title like " Touch That Feeling".....oh wait, that was Beau Kayser (Brock) from Y&R.

I always thought Susan seemed like a cool down to earth person, but I have read interviews over the years and it seems like a lot of her co-stars found her difficult or didn't like her at all. In one interview, Susan herself said she had been friends with Brenda Benet when they were young deb stars. She the betrayed Brenda and then there was tension years later when she joined Days.

Harding Lemay was either writing SFT or TD. I'm thinking the date may be wrong on this video - I'm guessing 1981, as they were showing bits of the Ice Princess storyline on GH being filmed and not L&L's wedding.

Had to be October or November of 1981 if L&L's wedding was in a few weeks.

That's what I was thinking. If this had been 1982, the wedding would have been shown prominently in this feature.
