Yeah my mom was abc. All My Children IIRC.Luke Spencer was definitely ABC's top soap guy for a while there. But my mom always watched the CBS soaps
Anyone else remember how there used to be separate magazines for the different network daytime soaps? Like there used to be an "ABC Soaps", "NBC Soaps" and a "CBS Soaps" magazine.
I've been watching some old reruns and yeah, it's dated, but still good.
I remember how controversial it was that there was a scene with an unmarried couple (Furillo/Davenport) sharing a bath together. Such simpler times.
Although I like the characterization
, I'm not sure why we're on this list? We are set for judging and in fact two of these are complete already?
I was just listing the ones listed as open on the spreadsheet and then noting which ones were taken that I was aware of. Not sure who is updating the judging list - basically some housekeeping for the spreadsheet.Although I like the characterization
the dialogue & characterizations seem a little forced now because it was so focused on breaking the Dragnetness of the cop show and establishing a menagerie of individuals, and it does suffers from having established so many tropes now inherent to the procedural that its own innovations appear hacky today. still watchable. i rose & fell w that gang, so there is some reunion value, but it plays better in memory than on screen
Good Lord. I think I was at least a 5 point outlier on about 2/3 of these
My mom was a huge young and the restless fanI considered a few names when it came time to pick 71-90 Leading Man Drama. Others that I considered were Doogie Howser and Coach Ken Reeves (The White Shadow).
And one other name from the daytime soaps: Does anyone in this thread know the character Victor Newman without looking it up? (Hint) Giant icon in the soaps, but wasn't sure how that would fly here. Still ... Dark Shadows was a daytime soap that got some love, so
I would have ranked Reeves pretty high. Top 5-ish.I considered a few names when it came time to pick 71-90 Leading Man Drama. Others that I considered were Doogie Howser and Coach Ken Reeves (The White Shadow).

I volunteered for news personality last night. I’m not sure if Getzalf did too, or if mistaken identity there.
I’ll do itMy staff informs me that we once again have four ties, this time in the Leading Woman - Drama '71-'90 category.
That’s why you need an odd number of judges, so you can break the ties by which pick has the most judges ranking it higher.My staff informs me that we once again have four ties, this time in the Leading Woman - Drama '71-'90 category.
Based on my picks vs the rest of the gang's in Leading Men, we already have an odd number of judges.
Just checked and your pick is in one of the ties. I'll send you the other three.
She's in one of the ties, too.
Can I send you the one that tuffnutt can't judge?I could do that here, too; we have wide variations that mean scores in some ties are steady for one woman and go from 13 to 1 pt for another. I just prefer this method after seeing someone else use it.

I wasn't going to out you.
My line of work - 16 year old hetero boy - at the time that show came out had her WAY up on my celeb-crush list. But, even then, I thought the character (had to backspace for the 2nd "a" AGAIN - wtf?) was awful. That's no knock on Carter as an actress; she just didn't have anything to work with. I felt the same about David Banner, without the hotness factor.I wasn't going to out you.
I get the Lydia Grant one, but what do you have against Wonder Woman?
I'll have some free time over Christmas and realize that I do have extensive knowledge of the 1991-2020 leading man drama category. I'll take that. Could probably do comedy too if needed.
I can take 91-20 leading woman drama, but I’ll take anyone’s rankings to get more of a consensus. I prefer to do it that way so I can blame the other judges when people get mad.
