oops, sorry. Hubby #3 was the one who shot her agent in the d!ck though, right? (again, totally someone you'd wanna take marriage advice from)

THE c STOOD FOR capwell (damn caps lock) it was the roof of THE CAPWELL HOTEL. LANE DAVIES played MASON (the guy trying to get onto the roof) he had a role in an episode of THE GOLDEN GIRLS as the attorney who goes after DOROTHY for being a slumlord.

i'm sorry, we were talking about another soap- SANTA BARBARA, one of the actors on it kinda imitated SELBY'S style as QUENTIN.

also, now that I have seen DAVID SELBY AS QUENTIN I can TOTALLY SEE how LANE DAVIES as MASON CAPWELL somewhat copied his style...(although he did it very well)

THE C KILLING MARY was one of THE MOST SHOCKING THINGS that ever happened in a soap. KEITH was played by a really good actor, I would have thought he might go on to a bigger career (he looked like MICHAEL KEATON) but he stayed in daytime (and won a bunch of Emmys)

(meanwhile Joan's husband #3 is in wardrobe trying to get his hands on THE PAISLEY PUCCI PRINT she wore in that day's show....)

I still can't believe I'm the only one here who watched SANTA BARBARA... I guess all the rest of you were busy at 3:00 pm on weekdays in the eighties...

the story of nearly every soap is a series of peaks and valleys, a story will get RED HOT and sometimes they resolve it right and sometimes they don't [edit- sometimes they don't resolve it at all], and sometimes the show ends up going off the rails (hopefully to recover, although not always, as was the case with SANTA BARBARA or ANOTHER WORLD after 1992)

ADAM looks like THE OLD SPICE MAN had a bad accident and went through the windshield. *thats not a complaint, mind you, just an observation.

one thing i will give the ADAM STORYLINE credit for: I genuinely believe the writers caught ABBOTT AND COSTELLO MEET FRANKENSTEIN at a revival house and decided to work out the oft-asked question of just what in the Hell it was BELA LUGOSI'S Dracula wanted THE FRANKENSTEIN MONSTER for exactly later on that night...

I wonder if they killed off SAM EVANS because DAVID FORD and NANCY BARRETT broke up in real life? He was not a terribly good actor, at least not from what I have seen.

I was intent of backing off of DARK SHADOWS, but I recently stumbled upon a "hot pocket" in the storyline where things come together and it gets good- VICTORIA has returned from being hanged (how ****ing HARDCORE is that by the way??, if they had wanted to make ALEXANDRA MOLTKE happy, they should have had her play the role as WEDNESDAY ADDAMS)), PROF STOKES has stepped into the lead role, ramifications of the past are worked SO CLEVERLY INTO THE STORYLINE!!! (Especially the return of REV. TRASK and his REVENGE ON BARANABAS!) and PROF STOKES feeling a link with BEN STOKES and finishing a letter he has written- I daresay THAYER DAVID was the best (male) actor on the show, i know JOHN KARLEN is good, but he is taxing to watch sometimes. THATER DAVID (working his CHARLES COBURN MONOCLE) 100% understands the kind of performance he needs to give as PROF STOKES, and he nails it (which wakes STOKES'S rather spotty success rate as a paranormal researcher all the more amusing.) I ALSO DON'T MIND the dream curse storyline, I know some of you said you hated it....of course, i have benefitted from being able to pick and chose my storylines, it's not like i have to watch in one a day installments. I have largely sidestepped THE ADAM STORYLINE and yet, at this point, I am bemused by it.

Almost everything. Dorothy Kilgallen knew everything, but that’s another story....

The Dan Curtis/jack Palance JEKYLL AND HYDE is on Tubi for free, And I seem to recall, but can’t promise for sure, that the 1977 Louis Jordan “count Dracula” is on Amazon prime for free.

I THOUGHT THAT WAS WEIRD TOO!!!!

This 1960s(?) reissue trailer may be the answer, in it the narrator says “BELA LUGOSI AS MURDER LEGENDRE...” Maybe they just made up the name to make the trailer a little more exitic....?

He actually went by “Sodom E. Legendre.” Later, he became a prominent personal injury attorney, wherein he 100% lived up to the name.

Ps- I had to spell “soddomy” with two dees, otherwise the sensor blurs it out.

“He’s got two brothers, Arson and Soddomy- DO NOT turn your back on ANY of them for any amount of time...”

I just LOVE THE NAME, MURDER LEGENDRE so I chose to LIBERTY VALANCE THE LEGEND.

yet also, on the film's imdb page: Top cast Bela Lugosi as 'Murder' Legendre

from imdb: Bela Lugosi's character name "Legendre" means "the son-in-law" (Le gendre) in French. It however, in no way, shape or form translates to "legend" in French, contrary to uninformed assumptions. Simply "son-in-law", and nothing else. Not once is Bela Lugosi's character name "Murder Legendre" pronounced by anyone at any moment in the film. Nor does the character name appear onscreen once---in the credits nor otherwise.
