I remember Welch suing because of being replaced on Cannery Row. That she managed to survive the type of moment that gets you blackballed in Hollywood is a credit to her tenacity.

Here's a 1974 interview with her.

I remember my mom watching this commercial (which came on during her soaps) and wanting to know where the fountain of youth was.  Gotta love the early 90s vibe

And I used to love these commercials.   The reason she maintained a career was that she hustled.

RIP

Any time you'd see Stella in anything, she had such presence. Even later in her career, when she was in dross like a Dukes of Hazzard reunion movie, still looking great (an uncle of mine said she looked better than Catherine Bach). She never really got the praise or career retrospective she deserved, but she's one of those people who made TV of her era stand out. And of course who can forget her in Poseidon Adventure?

Belzer died early Sunday at his home in Bozouls in southwest France, a longtime friend of the actor who does not wish to be identified told The Hollywood Reporter.  “He had lots of health issues, and his last words were, ‘F*ck you, motherf*cker’  ” , his friend said.

In the Feb. 16 episode of SVU, Fin told the new guy Bruno all about Munch.  There was quite a bit of dialog about how Munch had mentored Fin.  The episode included a ceremony honoring all of Fin's years at SVU, as well as him solving a new case, but Fin took the time to pay tribute to Munch.
And three days later, Belzer passes away?

    • Jonathan Kellerman is definitely the most EON/Slesar-like writer in the business right now.  Unfortunately, he's almost 80 years old.  Interestingly, he has a son (Jesse Kellerman) who's about 45, who's been studying under him.  I believe what makes the Kellermans such effective mystery & crime writers is their background in psychology.  
    • I never understood the point of Marchetti. Summer left the show for a job there in Italy. OK. When she returned they had Jack buy the company. Why couldn't Summer have returned and simply stated it was not a good fit, she missed her home , family/friends etc It was absurd that this internationally successful fashion empire could just be bought by a US cosmetics firm at the drop of a hat. What was the point when they never did anything with it at all? Summer simply could have gone to work at Jabot. And wasn't there some nonsense about an offshhoot called Marchetti Home? Was Phyllis attached to that at some point? This show...

    • Haven't seen today's ep yet but so will be interested to see the clothes. So far I think they have been very character specific (even if I don't like some of them eg Kat's cutsie style) Anita is very showy/glittery, Nicole classic elegance, Dani sexy/bold colors etc. Unlike Y&R which seems much more generic. Also BTG pays attention to the men's wardrobe and has developed a style for the boyz-which is harder to do with male fashion. The absence of any of Derek/Ashley at any of these big events again demonstrates how they are in a different universe to the rest of the show. Not that a nurse and a fireman would be there but still they seem destined at this point to stay in their own lane and have little interaction with the core of the show.
    • Agnes had written for Bernard Grant for many years on TGL as well as Ernest Graves and Joe Gallison,Doris Belack,Robert Milli,and  Antony Ponzini at AW. So she would probably gravitate to writing a role with an actor in mind or choosing someone she had written for before who she knew could deliver.
    • Once Johnny Dallas' cut himself off from Laurie Ann Karr and their son, and once Laurie successfully recovered from her mental problems, she wanted a new, fresh, and healthy start for the next chapter of her life. She legally reverted her name and changed John Victor's  surname to Karr. After moving to the country (when Teri  Keane was dropped from the show), Bill and Martha Marceau legally adopted Jennifer, the baby girl whom they had earlier taken in when the child's biological mother, Taffy Simms (and other bio family members) proved to be unfit to raise her. Jennifer legally and emotionally became a Marceau, and gave that name to her own daughter, whom Jennifer birthed through surrogacy as a single parent. Et...voila! The Karr and Marceau legacies live on.

    • BLQ is having second thoughts regarding putting her baby up for adoption. Chase is upset he can't tell Dante. So both are putting this on at lulus feet. Saying she is holding it over them. Lulu is doing none of this. 
    • Yes she absolutely was involved in that story which seems to have gone nowhere.  She didn't start to remove herself from the writing until 1973.
