I really miss those days 🤧 my grandma watched as the world turns everyday! Her and her best friend from the church sista holiday would be on the phone watching as the world turns talking about their hair and clothes and what is going on I had no idea how much I'd miss those days like I do I wish I could go back like you wouldn't believe!

I watched this show when I came home for lunch with my Mom. What wonderful memories

[@HighSierraDawn]

I wish my own life would have background xylophone music like on this program. 😇🤣

[@radioguy1620]

i never watched these , I was at school but I know my Mom and her friends did, they called them "their stories" lots of drama for sure, love the music.

I wish there were more episodes featuring the Lowell family--they were one of daytime TV's first wealthy but dysfunctional families, and viewers could sympathize with the point of view of each Lowell. The Ellen story, along with Penny's travails, and the Bob/Lisa relationship carried ATWT for many years. Douglas Marland consistently had the long-term characters remembering their pasts and worrying how might negatively affect their children and grandchildren.

Complimenti. Facendomi due calcoli dovresti avere tra gli 82 e gli 88 anni 😊

I Remember when in Court Ellen was Grilled on the stand and Judge Lowell had a Light Heart Attack in the courtroom ,, it was so Emotional Scenes. And when Ellen,s custody claim was Denied, She Cried so Pitifully, The Acting was so Great. As the World Turns was the Number one soap opera at that time in 1961.

Must be sad to give up a child from the adopted parents after 5 yrs. Spiteful.

[@lindauribe6872]

I watched these everyday with my baby son I was in a bad marriage and left after 2 and a half year marriage.. I waited until my son was 18 to marry again.I was married 38 years until my police officer husband died.

[@CozysHouse]

Wow such great acting.

[@skycubphilly]

It’s something watching this. David and Ellen together so soon after all this.

[@amiblueful]

I'm going to talk about the commercial. Carnation nonfat milk was absolutely disgusting. My parents and my grandparents drank it. I pleaded with my grandparents to buy whole milk when I visited. lol

[@dannygaines1352]

You're right about that!

[@kendalson7100]

Ooh I must try this Carnation Diet!

[@sonnyandcobi]

Wow, that's the actor who played Dr. Jim Craig on One Life to Live.

[@Soapking1965]

Yes. He played Ellen's stepfather, Dr. Doug Cassen.

[@m.e.d.7997]

Nat Polen.

[@louelaine3680]

I think even corn oil was better back then. I liked David.

[@virginiarobertson2934]

I liked Phillip Capice

[@sueannnatter5295]

Wow David had white hair even in 1961?

[@mrs.rucker2448]

I thought the same thing! Henderson Forsythe looked exactly the same from the sixties through the nineties!

Another commercial that has been an earworm in my head for 60 years! "The margarine larger in Vitamin A...new, new Nucoa gives you all your Vitamin A in one, two, three pats a day!" (Oddly enough, another company is making Nucoa today, but it seems to be available only on the west coast)

[@jacquelinehinni1680]

There is no sound

[@tonyrizzo3910]

I wonder if Mr. Morris and Suzy Perette knew each other?

[@MrUhwoody]

Carnation is good, and good for ya. Still.

[@m.e.d.7997]

I know they made "Coffee Mate". The best.Not sure now.
