RIP Jerry!!!! Loved his portrayal of Ross so much. There was no question he became the cornerstone of GL throughout the 90’s and up until his 2005 exit. 72 is way too young . 
 

My favorite pairing of his was with Sherry’s Blake, I wonder if she’s heard the news as well.

This years in memory of segment is going to be difficult and I hope they don’t screw it up or else they will have a lot of upset viewers. I think and hope we will hear from certain people eventually through others. I could see Kristen posting for her brother and with his own cancer battle… anyway I am expecting to hear from some of the guys at Gl perhaps Courtney Simon will tweet on behalf of Peter as they shared a dressing room for years and irl friends.

 

 Betterforgotten that clip today is even more poignant than it was back then…

I love that picture of him. Of course, what's not to love, his baby blues just about jump out at us! And you mention JVD working hard at OLTL. He was just a hard worker. So many at GL were of a time, maybe, or something, where they just had a strong work ethic. Of course I believe that in general daytimers work harder than anybody else. I believe Joan Collins found that

to be true while she was in Springfield.

Maureen Garrett is on Facebook. I think she is conservative in how much time she gives to the ether but she logged onto my soap page there just last week & made a post. I had uploaded this pic where she looks so young & she said that of course she did she was just a baby then.

Mark Lawson aka Brody on OLTL commented on Bree’s insta no idea how to share that…he mentions the last day of OLTL. There are some who won’t say anything and that is okay as I would rather someone not be forced to comment.

sad, sad news.

the morning of blake and ross’s wedding in 1994, ross and ed had a conversation — just a conversation between two old friends talking about their years of history — that i remember to this day, more than 25 years later . i cannot find it anywhere online. 

i’ve always suspected that it was part of the reel he submitted for his first emmy, in 1995. i remember reading somewhere that liz kiefer put together his reels. 

if anyone knows where it is, please post.

    • Totally agree - we have much to learn about Vernon, and I'd love to see it.
    • I've enjoyed Vernon but I wouldn't be opposed to learning more about his life beyond his political work. What kind of family does he come from? Does he have any siblings? I feel like that could be an interesting thing to look at.
    • GH:       A- DAYS:   A- BTG:     B- B&B:     F Y&R:     F
    • I've always said, Robert Newman does not get enough credit for the popularity of Josh/Reva. Had he stayed in '91, and had years to build other relationships before Kim returned, I'm not sure we'd have been stuck with "always".
    • Bizarrely, while I didn't see it, I distinctly remember my younger sister telling me. We were walking to the store, and at the top of the hill she let out "Roger raped Holly", and I swear I remember it echoing for what seemed like forever. She would've been five at the time.  I know,,,which I find extraordinary. I have toyed with the idea of watching Another World for Maeve, Kathleen Widdoes and Beverlee. But watching Vanessa call Emma Snyder "momma" kinda weirded me out. LOL. I believe that's what I read in the recaps from the time as well. I meant, I couldn't quite believe that the audience wouldn't understand that a woman preparing to go to her engagement party  was raped. I know that on ATWT John raped Kim while they were married, resulting in Andy, but I think they shied away from calling that marital rape.
    • I have my fingers crossed for a baby to be named Monica Michelle & called Monica. And, yes, I do realize that is not equal to having her onscreen but, like you said & of course a recast is unthinkable. 
    • I would love to have Monica on screen. Leslie Charleson has died. She played the role for 46 years. Monica should pass as well. No one is going to accept a long-term recast for Monica, no matter how great  the actress they could get.
    • Coming into June...   It just occurred to me that seeing Carter/Hope engaged that there was something missing. Oh, yeah! DAPHNE. I missed a few episodes, but she left, right? So is Ridge going to be the spoiler for Carter/Hope now? I felt that Daphne/Carter/Hope had more legs to it. But I guess we will see.   I did enjoy that show circling back around to Luna/Will/Electra. Katie was spitting nothing, but truth. Same for Sheila. And it's good to see Luna vs Electra, and they gave off more adversary chemistry this time around versus when they were at Deacon's.    I was happy to see Liam reduced to C plot.
    • To bring over from the May Sweeps Thread from @Chris B   I know the fashions have gotten mixed reviews but I actually like what the new costume designer is putting the cast in. It feels more modern and the more tacky pieces I feel make sense for rich people. They're buying for the brand and the price and we often see celebs in things like this. Especially for a character like Nikki, I feel the more over the top (and tacky), the more realistic it is.   I agree. While it has been hit and miss no question, I have found it fascinating to watch what the costume designer is attempting to do with the various characters and their clothes. Some have been overdue. Some have been fascinating. But (outside of Billy) not boring to watch. I definitely find it more modern as well.   My growing issue has been it's not good that the best reason to watch Y&R as of late has been to see what people are wearing rather than the writing. It feels like a red flag.
