Mid 1979 to mid 1981 was A+ quality for the show. I even found things to like about the show in the final year or so when the quality had somewhat declined. -

From what I heard, the actress playing Leslie opted to leave so instead of recasting again.. they killed her off. Holly brought it on herself by lying and pretending Christina was Ed's child. Although I do think that Rita's actions with withholding that message from Ed weighed upon her. Even though she won Ed in 1976, she realized over time that she never truly had him. There was no Rita/Tim/Evie triangle. Tim and Evie dated after Rita broke up with him (which happened before Evie and her mother came to Springfield). Ironically Tim did to Evie what Rita previously did to him... leading someone on that you're not interested in. -

The most beautiful thing about getting into a new soap opera is getting to know the characters yourself and figuring everything out slowly. And EON is one of the easiest when it comes to that. Pretty soon you are so well oriented in who is who and what are their motivations. I only struggled with the episodes before Mansion of the damned started. Then after that it's pretty smooth sailing. -
I don't hate Hayley but she would absolutely cry about falling for Jacob.

@BroderickThank you for the reply. Such acting that they Sharon Gabet and the actor playing Draper still played their relationship after it's over. I picked up on it even though I had no idea about their history. That's such good acting/continuity. Raven has just moved to London and a custody battle is now brewing for Jamey. -
Ha-ha-ha, I thought it was Marland who turned Mike into a jerk, but apparently not. I get that they probably felt the Mike/Leslie story had run its course, but they should have at least let them have a kid. Especially since they were soon ensnaring him in a storyline with a woman who couldn't have children (Elizabeth). Of course, no one could have predicted there would be a dearth of Bauers a few years later. I remember this! I remember Holly sitting by the phone, desperate for Ed to call so they could stop the divorce. I forgot it was Rita who never gave him the message. What a bitch.Please register in order to view this content
But, yeah, this is the Rita I remember at the beginning: very determined to bag Ed. I contend that Holly never, ever got over it, never stopped regretting that the divorce went through. I wish at some point over the years they had let Holly and Ed reunite for more than a brief affair. It feels like a thread that was left hanging. There she is! I was beginning to think I had dreamed up the Rita/Tim/Evie triangle. -

In the interview posted on knotslanding.net, William Devane described the Greg/Paige storyline as "juvenile". From that interview I also got the impression that William Devane was on his way out near the end so he wouldn't have returned if there was a season 15. -
Just started this show. I’m on episode 3. I’m starting to make the connections and understand the family tree better. Still will take time to fully understand everything but it’s exciting. So glad we have a new soap opera in 2025! Excited to join the discussion once I’m caught up.
