It's funny how viki would up loving tea way more than she ever tolerated Blair only for Todd's sake. Viki Def freaked Todd out b/c he still wants Blair. Andrew in 92 was such a good character they ruined. Ahh a Billy Douglas mention.

I can't believe the writers were so desperate as to give us a couple of rather ridiculous storylines like the Maggie and the performing arts center and RJ and the jazz music. Snoozefest to the max. Of the two I prefer the jazz but neither is compelling. The Maggie thing is plain silly.

I really thought Maggie was a cool character & very pretty. Sad how many characters left in 97 or actors. Joey, cord, Maggie, drew, Alex Patrick Marty all were mass exodus. Than in 98 early 99 Jill Phelps destroyed the show & so many couples & characters recast for her buddies. Rh left & Jill already was thinking old shampa was gonna be the new hunky male lead. What a joke. All b/c he was dating her in real life. Funny when Jill went to gh they refused to hire kale brown & the only gig he got there was doing the hospital p.a. announcements. Lol. That's what the favored abc soap thought of kale brown aka original Sammy Rappaport. That whole family was good within a year or two thank God but the show was already destroyed.

Who is old shampa?

@@LisaHouserman Sam Rappaport the character & in real life dating the exec producer Jill Phelps. She crested Sam aka " shampa" b/c he dated Todd's ex wife & mother of his child starr. Many Todd fans or todd& Blair fans in late 90s were vocal about Todd's backdated " foster " football coach & foster " dad" were horrified by him within months going after his ex wife Blair & their child's mom for a physical relationship while he was pining away for Nora, Todd's ex attorney who threw his trial & their seriously scary history.
