Thank you. What a nice Christmas gift. Always good to see more of Loving, and the climax of a story, no less. The Marx Brothers feel of so many people standing outside the cave amused me. Good scenes with Casey and Steffi (both characters always feel so 'real'). Bittersweet to see the Alden clan here - I guess this is near the end of Pat Barry's time as Isabelle. Lovely moment near the end with Ava and Alex. Chris Marcantel was such a talented actor - he plays Curtis' slim grip on sanity without overdoing it. Great moments with Tess too, who was such a compelling anti-heroine. Dante is always a bit too silly for me but Thom Christopher plays the part well. The cliffhanger was a neat twist, albeit a bit clunky in execution.

Honestly, I think few actors ever had as much fun as Thom Christopher obviously had playing Dante. And although the character is... problematic, to say the least, it's impressive how he was built up until he was touching virtually every storyline and character in some way. Although his surname is spelled different, he truly was "Partout" (everywhere) during his time on the show. Barry's last episode was January 3, 1994. Great to see the Aldens (almost) all together.

Loved this rather Gothic era of Loving when Agnes Nixon returned as headwriter.

I was always upset that Christopher Marcantel never got an Emmy nomination. He really ought to have won at least one, particularly for 1995-96 for the last few months of his time on the show, but he always was worthy of nominations. By far my favorite Loving actor!

[@abcsoapmemories]

What's there is what was there. I don't often have the end credits and sometimes the opening theme is missing from the recording.

Any other episodes from December 1993 or January 1994?

[@abcsoapmemories]

Yes. I'm working on getting some of the episodes around this episode ready to upload.

It was wasted plot.
