Anyone else a fan of this classic 80's series ? I remember it from back in the day and recently bought the season 1 DVD's. I plan to purchase the rest of the series soon.

About 10-12 years ago PAX reran it.

It's hard to believe sometimes that Bruce was married to Melissa Gilbert. I always found her grating.

About 10 years ago, I got to see Bruce Boxleitner in person at the Western Film Festival in Tombstone, AZ. He is even more handsome in person. It was a combination Western film stars (and he was in several, including installments of Kenny Rogers' The Gambler movies) and a Little House on the Prairie cast reunion. So he was there with his then-wife, Melissa Gilbert, and their kids. She was very standoffish - only appearing at one autograph session while the rest of the LHOP cast were present for at least three. When I (and my brother, who graciously attended with me so I wouldn't have to travel alone) walked around the town to either eat or souvenir shop, I heard other fans there gossiping about them. "He's WAY too good for her!"

Another S&MK connection at that same event - another star present was Stella Stevens, who at one time was Kate Jackson's real-life mother-in-law. She was the first to be introduced at the event by the mayor of Tombstone. On her way up to the dais, she tripped and nearly fell flat on her face. Thankfully, the fans around her caught her before she hit the ground. When she approached the microphone, she was a bit embarrassed but otherwise OK.

    • I've often thought that as well.   I stuck with EON until the bitter end, but my viewing dropped off DRASTICALLY after the Rexford Clinic storyline concluded in 1981.   The show had always "re-grouped" fairly well after a mass exodus of cast members --- but I never felt it never made a full recovery after the loss of Albee, Frances Fisher, Joe Lambie, Tony Craig, and Terry Davis.   Slesar seemed to have a decent storyline in mind for Raven and Jefferson Brown, but once that arc ended (and he was stuck trying to sandwich Larkin Malloy back onto the canvas), the storylines got sillier (Smiley & the Maskers), and there was too much emphasis on the trials & tribulations of Jody Travis and on the Raven & Schuyler characters.  The new writer (Sheldon) took Slesar's weaknesses to an even greater extreme, making the characters unrelatable and often cartoonish. A return of "three musketeers" police-type storytelling would've been more than welcome, in my opinion.     
    • Sometimes it's hard to tell if it is a new episode or a repeat, since all the characters keep repeating everything anyway....

       So hopefully they won’t add tomorrow’s show on CBS/Pplus later this evening. lol 
    • Yes today's would have been what should have aired Friday 
    • A poster on Bluesky has reminded me that this was that awful story where Jen was engaged to Lawrence. Further she thinks that Jack was going for one of the SNL wild & crazy guys. And then she adds how much she misses Vern. And, don't we all?!! For the DAYS virgins among us, Vern was the newspaper editor & also father to Brian & to Tanner, Vern Scofield. Vern was a good friend to Jack, at a time when Jack didn't have many friends. 
    • It's Eurovision week!

    • And, Gio is Rocco's half-brother, siblings. 
    • Yes, I would agree that she has some rights to tell Dante because it's their son's brother and it's very unfair Dante never knew.  The whole scenario is odd to me because I don't know why Dante or Olivia were kept in the dark in the first place.  I think Dante would have absolutely accepted Brook Lynn's choice.   I can see Olivia possibly having some issues with it, but she never got the option to react either. 
    • Head trip for EON fans and thanks to @GymnastGuy who's been posting tons of Search episodes on YouTube.  SFT August 22 1985 episode Executive Producer: Erwin Nicholson who produced Edge for nearly two decades; this was his last job (9 months starting March 85 through Nov). Co -Head Writer (with Paul Avila Mayer) Stephanie Braxton who played Winter on Edge Actors: Joe Lambie (Logan) as Lloyd; Lois Kibbee as Grandmere (she stepped in for the Maureen O'Sullivan who had played the part for a few episodes, Lee Godart (Elliot) as Bella; Louise Shaeffer (Serena/Josie) as Stephanie. Other non Edge tidbits: Audrey Peters (Van Love of Life); John Loprieno (Cord OLTL) Of course SFT was filmed at EUE studios where Edge had taped. Most of the technical crew were Edge crew for decades.  Background music same as Edge (Elliot Lawrence productions).

    • Ahh...so in that case it's more of a gray area. But I still think Lulu  has ground to tell Dante as she co-parents with him.
