Can someone correct this math if I am wrong?

 

I believe Liz Chandler inherited her father Kellam's mansion when her brother Todd shot him.  Liz and Neil lived there when they got married but then I recall that Victor Kiriakus bought it when Neil got into debt, Victor was funding the drugs in cassette schemes and, Liz left him.  Which means that the Kiriakus mansion was once the Chandler mansion. 

 

Also, a few year's earlier when the Dimera's strong armed Stuart Wyland out of Salem didn't Tony move into his house which is now the Dimera mansion?  If so, did the famous scene when Renee tells off the whole town then is murdered happen in the current Dimera mansion?  That set has been through a lot of changes including where the stairs are located.

 

Which means that nobody took over Bob Anderson's house which was actually the coolest house in Salem in the 1970's.

Was Bob Anderson's house the Lakehouse? 

 

Mickey and Maggie moved in and it stayed on screen till about 84 when Suzanne Rogers departed. 

 

I don't believe it was recycled.

 

Does anyone know where Mickey and Maggie lived when they remarried or did they become homeless?

 

They should have moved into the Horton home after Tom died. It was ridiculous to believe in later years that Alice was living alone in that house.

The last time the Salem Place set was used on the show was in 2004, the first couple of years after that when fans asked why they werent using it anymore, someone said it was a construction area. But they never said it was supposed to be gone permanently.

 

A couple of years ago you could still see the Salem Place set on Google maps. Here is a screencap I took back then and one today. It confirms what j swift said. That beautiful set was destroyed for parking spaces.

It was also used as the sorority house for Chelsea, Stephanie and Morgan  in 2007-2008.

I believe they've always been carpeted. 

 

I haven't seen more recent episodes yet (I'm still currently watching mid-June eps!) but one thing I noticed about the Horton living room when they brought it back in 2010 is that it looks more square now. Which, from a true-life perspective makes sense, but it didn't use to be so.

    • This is where McLaibey falls apart. It becomes clear that McTavish had not thought past Brent/Marion...so the energy drops and she starts throwing things at the wall (Blakes twins, Lonatrat.)   Fans HATED this funeral. Everyone is mad at everyone else, which is fine, the death of a beloved community figure would give people a reason to come together...(Quint and Nola could come together at least for  a bit to support each other, Nola and VAn could finally admit they kinda, sorta like each other) Its just an example of McTavish's mean writing.   I have a feeling they were going to make Dahlia Frank's kid but they chickened out. Making Tina a prostitute didn't help, they could have been lovers when they were young but felt society pressure to part. Marcus took over David's role (you can't have two young black men at that time...)   Get used to it...this will happen, the same storyline over and over until the end.
    • Does anyone happen to have a recording or any footage of Jennifer’s funeral?
    • It's such a shame that the conflict couldn't be resolved in a mature way between the two actors.. especially since Albee was a bigger asset for the show in terms of character and his popular will they/won't they pairing with Deborah Saxon. One of the things about Edge was that it was just as popular with male viewers as it was with women.  It's one of things I think the show forgot in the final year or two with the deemphasis on the male characters.
    • Daytime Confidential did a podcast of the worst mothers in soaps and here were their lists.  5.Felicia Scorpio 4.Reva Shayne 3.Dina Mergeron 2.Helena Cassadine/Shelia Carter 1.Brooke Logan Dishonorable Mentions- Stephanie Forrester,Ann Douglas, Phyllis Summers and Joanna Manning Joshua 5.Anna Devane 4.Diane Jenkins 3.Ava Vitali 2.Shelia Carter 1.Brooke Logan Dishonorable Mentions-Alexis Davis, Felicia Scorpio, Eve Donovan, Heather Webber, Natalia Ramirez, Stephanie Forrester,and Ruth Martin Luke 5.Natalia Ramirez 4.Diana Coville 3.Helena Cassadine 2.Alexis Davis 1.Arlene Vaughn Dishonorable Mentions-Stephanie Forrester Now for my comments. Wonder what Ruth Martin ever did to this guy?!!! I mean Ruth Martin? I don't get it. Next, IMO they are just picking on Eve Donovan. Who is Dina Mergeron? Same question  Joanna Manning? Diana Colville Is that because of the bad DAYS retcon of her being Leo Stark's mother? All of the rest, CO-SIGN!  
    • Thanks! Looking forward to reading the rest!

    • I don't really care about what the men are wearing, or not wearing.   What I care about is focusing on the writing and character development for each of the male characters. Andre really doesn't have a lot of character development that sets him apart from the other male characters except that he seems content to be degraded and mistreated by the elitist Dani.  I would like to know why a good looking younger guy like Andre would willingly be at the mercy of an emotional vampire such as Dani.   Martin, on the other hand, seems to have decent character development.. and it is partly due to how the actor chooses to recite his lines.  Martin was raised in a very privileged household and probably went to the best schools... so it makes sense that he would come across as thinking he was above everyone else.  Most people raised in a upper class situation as the Duprees would view themselves as better than others (it's the same trait Dani seems to employ on those she feels superior to). It makes me wonder how Nicole came out of that family being so warm and nurturing  when her family dynamics seemed very appearance oriented.    
    • I know, right. I after just re-reading the thread, I'm like ooppph!
    • Lulu and Dante were divorced before her coma, but she was still in love with him.  He just didn't know.  They haven't been married for years.    I was pretty mixed about Lulu getting involved when it was just a child out there in the world, but now that she realizes it's Gio I am okay with her telling Dante.  It also is her son's sibling.  I still think it's BLQ's choice though.  Lulu is in a rough spot because I think Dante will be mad if she keeps it a secret and Chase, Brook, Lois, etc will be mad if Lulu tells. Without veering too far into the classic area of the show, I had no problem with Robin telling AJ about Michael.  It may not have *exactly* been her place, but she could see how Carly was manipulating the entire situation.  It also ruined her romantic relationship with Jason for good.  Jason and Sonny were furious with Robin and practically ran her out of town, so I think we were to believe she was the bad guy.  It was a bit out of character for Robin to spill, but KMc was leaving the show.
