All My Children was great when I first started watching it back in 1982-83. That whole storyline with Silver Kane was so good and Dorothy Lyman as Opal Gardner was so original for a soap at that time, playing a low-class hillbilly. Then there was Jenny and Jesse going to New York and staying with Miss. Gonzales Those were good times!.

I agree 120 percent!!

Kathy Bates taking on Susan Lucci, I LOVE IT!!!!!!! Erica sure got an ass whooping from Annie Wilkes!!!!! WOW!!!!!🤣

[@AllieinCali]

I still miss that show!

This was when the international soap opera Prisoner Cell Block H was in its hay day! I would have loved to have seen a cross over!!!

[@DonnaLichvarcik-r4c]

Kathy was a badass for playing iconic villainesses on tv and in movies totally awesome

1984 two of my favourite actresses together. OH MY GOODNESS. Belle yells "Now look what ya done!" sounds like a quote straight from Misery (which wasn't until 6 years later).

Erica has high heels on in prison? lol, only on an 80's soap

[@SynDC6]

That would be considered contraband. Lol

Two great actresses, classics women😊, nice.

And to think she'd be a holy terror as Annie in Misery. Stephen King said it was based on a Fan who got too involved in a Character. I sometimes wonder if VC Andrews (Flowers In The Attic) was in that same boat.

Haha I love Kathy Bates!

[@finster1968]

A precursor for Annie Wilkes.

Did Erica ever get to turn the tables on Belle?

[@clydethurman2037]

I watch this all the time. Do you have episodes prior to and leading up to Erica shooting Kent?

[@HamiltonBernique]

Unfortunately not.

[@jeffkiper8199]

@@HamiltonBernique Nothing with Silver Kane?

[@Scottslaw]

I suppose that Erica Kane was down for that moment but Belle is still sitting there now(if the series continued)😃

[@marcusj4641]
