I wouldn't call her a "hit" recording artist, but I bought and very much liked Patty Weaver's album circa 1982.

Over in the UK, this was a #1 hit for Martine McCutcheon in 1999 a few months after her controversial exit/firing from EastEnders. In fact, I’m keen to believe the only reason it hit #1 there was due to the circumstances surrounding her exit, lol.

He was on B&B as Raymond for a while....

The most popular example in the UK and Australia would be Kylie Minogue. This was her first #1 hit (and debut single internationally) from 1987.

More ex-Neighbours actors who followed Minogue and turned to music. Not with the same success though.....

Knots Landing

How would you all rank the season finales and cliffhangers for Knots? I put some thought and came up with my own personal list:
1985-Val seeing the twins alive
1984-Karen is shot and Abby kidnapped by the Woodbridge Group
1982-Val walking in on Gary & Abby
1987-Abby hiding and burying Peter’s body
1988-Jill’s torture of Val
1990-Paige being stood up at her wedding, Jeff is Karen’s stalker
1983-Gary left rotting in jail while Karen realizes Chip is the one who killed Ciji
1993-Abby moving back into Knots Landing
1981-Sid’s car going over the cliff
1980-Gary falls off the wagon and gets back on.
1986-Karen is kidnapped
1992-Meg goes missing and Pierce turns up alive in Paige’s care
1989-Paige left standing in the rain while Mac gets skunked
1991-Brian Johnston disappears and then paintball madness/shenanigans.

Oh yes, I am looking forward to the remote shoot later in the summer :) But very sad to hear the state of things with the mob and island storylines hijacking the show.

Ratings from the 1990s

Ratings from the week of February 1-7 1993.
We’ve discussed it in length before, but that CBS Friday night is an embarrassing debacle, especially when compared to their Sunday and Monday nights.
Interesting to see NBC Thursdays struggling here outside of the Cheers/Seinfeld hour. Of course L.A Law’s significant drop in quality and casting misfires didn’t help matters at all either.

Is Amanda S religious or something? Or do they just stick Brook Lynn in modest clothing for no reason? Is there a mormon vibe going on?

Looking back...Primetime Ratings from the 80's

@Paul Raven Thanks for the recast of the top 30.
I do have to assume if there was a sharp demographic divide as well. Superman placed #2 yet the entire four hour of 6 shows on CBS Sun night lineup still all managed to all be in the top #20. I’m guessing the older skewing crowd stuck with their regular shows along with those who had no interest in a director’s cut of Superman.
Of course familiarity and attraction didn’t just affect those aging CBS sitcoms—Three’s Company was still very well deep into the Priscilla Barnes era.
Re: King’s Crossing. I am going to guess the quality of the show wasn’t very good either based on the lackluster opening credits. Secrets of Midland Heights sounds interesting and like it might have had some potential; King’s Crossing reads as a poor man’s Falcon Crest knockoff meets Eight is Enough and/or Family. Would love to see an episode if one ever surfaces.

Santa Barbara Discussion Thread

Well, yes?
Partly due to Santa Barbara having much younger demographics than Capitol, which means that a lot of fans kept it alive in the early internet age but also just by airing internationally (thus large parts of the run being preserved). I wouldn't exactly say either are shows that the regular Joe remembers, but Santa Barbara has the edge of the two.

Michael’s keys, that Willow slipped from his coat pocket at the meeting with Alexis and Ric, and added the key to Drew’s house.
What’s laughable to me is that Chase is such a bad cop he didn’t even try to secure the evidence. He and Willow both touched the key, and could easily be accused of wrongdoing.
I loved Willow’s confessions, which were partly accurate and also delusional about her own role in all of this. My one little complaint is that staging matters. I know it’s a budget thing with the lighting, but in the past this confession would be seen during a stormy night and dimly lit.

Emily McLaughlin had a lot of tragedy in her life. It’s a shame.

I apologize in advance for the dumb question, but who's keys did Chase have? I thought they were Michael's but were they Willow's? Tracy's?
