Does the cable channel "Soaps" play this show, since I might want to see those episodes.

I can't believe you have problems w/ this girl's butt. You could serve tea on it. Using the deluxe set.


She talks like a chipmunk, but she's got a killer body and a wonderful smile.


Ah, Kelly Monaco. A little bundle of dynamite. Also Miss April 1997 from Playboy.

Three of my personal faves.

I use to watch Days Of Our Lives way back in the early 80's when they use to have the whole Stefano,Roman and Marlena story line..As I recall she had some evil twin or something and Stefano was braught back from the dead..

I also switched to Y&R in the mid 80's when they had the storyline about a black guy desguise himself as white to avoid some mobster..

The black guy was the same fellow who played the lawyer (Johnny Cochrane type) on a few Sienfeld episodes

Can think of his name but isn't he the real life son of Greg Morris from MI??

Anybody remember the soap TEXAS??..It was a spin off of Another World from around 1982!!..I think it only lasted a couple of seasons..

I remember writing a fan letter to on of the stars (the blond girl) and I was stunned when I actually got a reply..

Phil Morris. The lawyer's name was Jackie Charles.

That's Soapnet. They used to show classic episodes of the ABC Soaps including AMC but they haven't for a while now. They replaced them with repeats of the day's shows and a soap talk show.

I know La Kane isn't for everyone. She's the center of the show and the most prominent person on AMC. Erica's still interesting after more than 25 years.

There are too many kids on the show. And the SORAS is definitely in effect. While it's good to give the youth a break, I'd rather see the veteran actors. The soaps have been trying to attract the young market for years and I'm not sure it has ever been successful.
