Alan, I never saw a man radiate such warmth and enthusiasm as Frank. He had me smiling and crying simultaneously talking about his professional and personal careers. My best to him and his family and to all those who brought GL into our homes and hearts.
Agreed Micheal and micheal I am glad, I am not the only one who found the Megan McTavish undoing Lucy's rapist death by Alan micheal then having him cross dress then kill Nadine offensive and violent. If I had my way Nadine would have still been around married to buzz Co owning the Diner which became company. See you hopefully tonight in the Locher Room.
I hope that you are feeling better, I re-watched the scenes of Brent with Nadine. It still gives me chills and I don't understand why the writers and producers did it.
@@michaelcdavis7047 I had to stop watching 1995. Around september micheal not sure what happened to frank beatty. I wish Ken l fitts had just left Jill faren phelps at guiding light to be honest and John valente at another world. But brought micheal liabson to as the world turns imstead to replace laurance caso. Who got burnt out. And I have to agree with Jill lorie Hurst it was one of the worst decisions ever made at guiding light amongst others. Anyway micheal I have been watching daily posts on Eddie drudings channel of another world I have been enjoying watching harding Lemays brief return from 1988. Too bad micheal liabson yes the same ep we are, discussing at gl screwed that up by rehiring Donna, swajeski who scab wrote during the writers strike and from what I understand that pissed harding Lemay off in 1988 and he walked off the set and quit. I don't blame him. Let's say I am liking hardings doing little story arcs and it looked like he was, begining to bring it all together with Jason frame evan bates and drew Marston. Let's just say I wish back when Ed trach was ep in charge of production he had moved liabson back in 1991 back over to guiding light to replace the retiring Bob Calhoun rehired Paul Rauch for aw. And then had harding Lemay come back for a third time and the dobsons rehired jill for Santa Barbara, instead of Paul Rauch. Heck micheal harding and Paul could have fixed the Jake raping marley stuff by doing a 1988 oltl by having it turn it to be drew Marston maquarading around as Jake for 2 years with a face transplant scheming with evan bates. That would hsve been a great story and a good way to corect a bad headwriter. And micheal that idea came to me from the faux Bo Patrick London storyline Paul Rauch did with s michral snezzal did at oltl in 1988. And that's what harding was competing with along with Doug Marland atwt. Who knows maybe my remixing reseting the 3 p and g shows could fix thay with flashback weeks.
@@benjaminautieri9606 ohh benjamin I forgot to bring up young and the restless it looks like they are doing the Kyle Claire pairing which I do not like at all that needs to end and never be mentioned again as for Sharon I gave an idea to explain sharons hallucinations if she is indeed taking her meds maybe the doctor or pharmacist is lacing her meds with lsd to make her halucinate. Maybe aunt Jordan is scheming from prison to get revenge in Victor now that would be a great story and very Doug Matland like which y and r needs right now see you in the Locher Room for Alan's y and r night.
Here you go.... Fifteen years have passed since you faded to black But in our hearts, your light will forever shine back A beacon of hope, a guiding force so true A Springfield family, forever loved, forever new From Reva's sass to Josh's charming grin From Rick's bad boy ways to Phillip's inner kin From Alan's schemes to Alexandra's grace Each character unique, yet bound by love's embrace The Bauer BBQs, the Lewis family ties The Spauldings' wealth, the Coopers' humble guise The stories woven, a tapestry so fine A testament to love, in all its forms divine Fifteen years may have dimmed the screen But memories linger, like a love supreme Guiding Light, you lit the way For dreams, for hope, for a brighter day So here's to you, dear Guiding Light A shining star, on this anniversary night May your legacy live on, a love so true Forever in our hearts, a guiding light shining through. I miss you #Springfield
Thanks for doing this interview with the handsome FD, loved him on GL. I watched him on the show during the late 80s, he reminded me of a Chippendale's male stripper (he had the look lol).
@@maryklug3143 Mr Locher’s podcasts are very good. Whether you’re interested in daytime dramas or worldwide issues pertaining to humanity, you’ll find his podcasts informative and/ or entertaining
🕯️ Guiding Light, CBS, Springfield Illinois. There is a destiny that makes us brothers, None goes its way alone. All that we send into the lives of others,Comes back to our own. ❤ That wraps up the feelings of our beloved GL. The Light House beacons outward to those who still remember ,if we follow its light we will never be in darkness. This was an excellent episode . What a wonderful vist with Frank. Thank you Alan for mentioning Biloxi Mississippi Share your light campaign after Katrina. May all that remember our Springfield family, be blessed with a ICON that will never be regained. Gracious greetings from Biloxi Mississippi 👋
What a fun interview. Frank seems like a really genuine guy and a joy to work with. But I'm just going to keep it real and say that GL really didn't hold up enough to keep me watching, despite having been a fan since the Ben and Eve days, as it started doing idiotic stories like Reva's ghost, her clone, the stupid San Cristobel nonsense that took so much of the story out of Springfield, and then her time travel through a portrait. At that point, I just turned it off, and by the time it went off the air, I wasn't sorry since I hadn't watched in years. If anyone were to produce a sequel or a movie, I pray to God they pretend none of that nonsense ever existed in Springfield and was just the fevered nightmare of a deathly ill Josh who is finally coming out of a 20-year coma or something. But I love Frank Dicopoulos. Thank you for bringing him on the show!
so wierd, I never couldn't get over Ron Raines as Alan, and the same with any of the Alexandras after Beverly .same with Beth and Elanie, even after 10 years .....I mean never, I still watched GL but I think Actors like that should never be replaced...Which is why ATWT became my favorite after all those re-casts
Can I please k(I keep asking, but you always deliver !! Lmaoo) get one one of these with sarah Buxton from Sunset Beach and Bold and The Beautiful? Please!!! Lolol
Alan a great interview again and Jill lorie Hurst was getting a lot of love too in the live chat and considering the amc news about bieng a series of lifetime movies. I think it's time to bring the 3 p and g shows back including guiding light with Jill faren phelps as, ep Jill lorie Hurst Nancy Williams watt, Stephen and Nancy demorest as headwriters remix reset the show.. So people like Jean Carol can grace our screens again as Nadine. And make right some of those worst decisions and give guiding light along with another world and as the world turns a fresh start. Before the people who get these shows are no longer alive. And Alan of course I agree with micheal c who brought up Lucy's cross dressing rapist killing Nadine in a violent manner but Alan as I told you I found it offensive months before that with what Megan McTavish was doing. When Brent was clearly shot and killed by Alan micheal and thrown into the water off the docks only to show up cross dressing like a freakish clown to get revenge on Lucy and the town like really Jill lorie Hurst was absolutely right it was one of the worst decisions ever to kill Jean Carol and Nadine off but also one of the most offensive storylines ever done on daytime even worse than the reva clone storyline. So shame on micheal liabson for even letting Megan McTavish take over the whole show but Alan I think it took that violent airing and Megan McTavishes stubbornness and trying to take over the whole show to get her canned but it shows how good Ken l fitts was as, an Ep In charge of production because when the eps made mistakes like Jill or micheal liabson did he would point it out but when they needed support offered it to them and would not hesitate to fire a bad writer if they gave the producer a, rough time or were told no. And did not back down like Megan McTavish. See you tommorow in the Locher Room.
Listening to all of the GL’s Openings from beginning to end brings back memories, for sure. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-DNCV3KhtqD0.htmlsi=SPqnc27WlZL6eUm8
