This is beyond sad!  I loved Lisa Brown as both Iva and Nola, such a dynamic actress for two unforgettable characters. I was happy GL brought Nola back for that show’s final episodes.  With Michael Tylo’s recent passing I guess that Nola and Quinton are reunited in Heaven now. RIP to one of daytime’s most underrated gems.

Heartbreaking. So many beautiful memories of Lisa.

There were plenty of standout Iva scenes over the years, but one that stands out to me most is after a party at the Mona Lisa when she had driven Holden back to the stables. I distinctly remember Holden wearing some sort of Miami Vice outfit. She wanted to learn more about her brother, what he wanted for the future, and it was just so genuine. A brother-sister moment that was so real.

Strength to her family and everyone who loves her.

I switched to GL during a commercial on NBC one day and saw Lisa as Nola. She certainly didn't look like a standard soap vixen, but I thought she was magnetic -- and continued to be, as she evolved her character into a heroine. What I saw of her on ATWT was just as compelling. I think her movie fantasies on GL remain a high point in the genre. RIP.

I'm actually really angry with P&G for not even bothering to put up even a measely ATWT official YouTube page where fans could have reached out to Brown and other actors, writers, etc. to give them the flowers they deserved while they are still around, instead of having to rely on mediocre livestream hosts who talk more about themselves than the talented cast and crew members.

    • I don't think they had any idea who he was this time last year. I think they were keeping their options very open. Same with totally dropping the Trina romance that was spoiled for him in the mags once FV clearly took a shine to him. Frank's priorities are bright and blazing in one color. I do think Gio and Emma seem to have worked out given that she is very dry and sarcastic and he is like a hot golden retriever, but I'd still play the field or explore quads with both with very different people - Emma with a scheming young man (of color), Gio with possibly Trina or someone else, or even a boy. Then maybe put them back together, who knows. But of course none that will happen.

    • He definitely got lost in the shuffle last year. First, they were implying that he was Drew’s son, then he was nothing more than just Violet’s bff

      And then they changed him to being Dante and Brook Lynn’s son, which was clunky at first but I’m enjoying the storyline now. 
    • GM is adorable, charming and fun onscreen despite months of nothing to do until recently, and has a bodacious bod. I'm not cosigning the show or this story - I haven't watched a full episode in over a month - but I think we're all taking the small victories in 2025 at this point. I'm open to testing this theory!
    • I think Jason might've posted some numbers for the syndication a while ago and the numbers for Falcon Crest was horrible. Like 1.5 rating or something, which was terrible.    ETA: it was actually Paul Raven:   New to syndication 60 min Fall Guy 67 markets 3.1/8 Falcon Crest 110 markets 1.1/5 To get into the top 40, you needed a 4.6/9 rating for reference - and Falcon Crest managed to get into a lot of markets to begin with. In the fall of 1985 Dynasty, Dallas and Knots were syndicated (show / rating / share / coverage % / markets): Dallas 3.4 10 51.7 92 Dynasty 3.4 10 48.7 47  Knots Landing 3.3 10 12.5 20  So, Knots as an example trippled Falcon Crest's rating with 20 markets - I'm sure those were major ones but it just goes to show you how much Falcon Crest bombed in syndication. 
    • It's not bad but the stories move too slow. It's the same problem when Dan O'Connor was CO-HW with Van Etten, they have a million stories and they all drag on endlessly with no resolution. I'd argue the majority of the stories airing now are good but you get sick of waiting months for something to happen.
    • Thanks. I must have missed that period entirely for Lifetime. 
    • Thanks. I know Marland did that type of thing sometimes but it's less likely with these characters. I don't even remember Alex ever mentioning him.
