Thank You again, Alan, for doing these interviews with stars from ATWT and GL. This interview was a really awesome one with John Driscoll and Beth Chamberlin. I was really moved by their true stories of events in their lives. John, thank you for your service to this country! God Bless you and your family.

It was great benjamin rewatcjing now totally forgot that jeanee Cooper was a known as serial butt pincher until John Driscoll brought it up you know benjamin she was supposed to go to atwt in 1993 and work with terry Lester again and play royce Kellers mom and had met with Doug Marland and Terry Lester around Christmas time but after Doug Marland died she never heard back from atwt so she stayed at y and r. So benjamin I think if Doug Marland had not died you would have continued watching atwt even if Mary kay Adam's charecter was killed off but I am not sure if Doug Marland would have done that. Happy 4th

Glad you enjoyed it, Benjamin.

@@gabrielstern4992 Yes, I had heard and read about Jeannie. I’m not sure why she was unhappy and wanted to leave YNR at that time and did not hear or know what was going on behind the scenes. And it was lovely to see Beth Chamberlain. She is my favorite Beth. Tina and Beth really were like mother and daughter and Judy Evans was sensational in the part! And I love the character of coop. I was so upset when he died, but I’m very happy to see him on YNR as the adult chance I have never warmed up to all the other chances or actors that took over after him, and his sense of duty for this country it’s just a beautiful thing to watch and say I can’t believe his son is four thank heavens for The Locher Room. Happy healthy safe fourth see you today in our Locher room😊

@@benjaminautieri9606 I liked his chance to the best I hate to say the only other chance. I actaully liked was Melissa ordways husband who was temporary. Justin Gaston. I think with Jeane Cooper part of it had to do with the incident that happened between Eric breaden and Peter Bergman that was instigated by certain individuals behind the scenes right around the time Terry Lester got let go as Mason at Santa Barbara. So these individuals were trying to set up Peter Bergman and pitt him and Eric breaden against each other so they could set up Peter and say he was a problem actor fire him and get Terry Lester back but Jeane who was sober by the fully VS when they were pulling the same stunt with Brenda Dickson. Said if Peter goes I go. And don't forget jeanne was good friends with Terry Lester so he knew what was going on and why she was unhappy. So he talked to Doug marland and Doug Marland was like I want her on my show. I sometimes think Doug Marland had a chip on his shoulder, Maybe against the bells. But defenetally ABC for how they treated him I think he respected agnes Nixon like harding lamay also did but I think he just hated ABC and just did not like sloppy writing. It's ashame so many soaps just ignored his blueprint on how not to ruin a soap because if they followed that standard many of them would still be on the air. And I say they because it's still going on with the, soaos that are left.

🎉Shining the Light on Guiding Light memories. Enjoyed John and Beth interview. Thank you Alan for these wonderful episodes, especially when it deals with our soap families. Always turning toward the Light in coastal Mississippi. ❤

[@TheLocherRoom]

You're very welcome, Scott. Thank you for always tuning in.

[@justruth886]

I was sorry to see John leave GL , but it was a great moment when he appeared as Chance on Y&R

[@mjj1434]

Still handsome, as always!!

[@Dee-v8u]

Great interview! Thank you for your service John! He was great as Coop and his death scenes in the hospital were heartbreaking. Justin Deas is such a talent when it comes to emotional scenes, i mean that scene with Coop in the hospital was gut wrenching, the same when Jenna died and he pleaded with her to stay with him and she told him to take care of her babies. He was good on Y&R. I thought they were gonna bring him back but I read he was going into the military. Glad John is doing well and good to see Beth, and thanks for this interview it was really good! #GL4life!

[@TheLocherRoom]

So happy you enjoyed it, Dee. Thank you very much.

[@Starfire77]

[@TheLocherRoom]

You bet! 🩵

Playing catch up. now Alan another great one. And the suprisey from Beth Chamberlin was nice. Now if we could get gl back on the air remixed and reset that would be nice and maybe have John Driscoll back playing Henry coop Bradshaw that would be nice but have him be Jenna and Matt Reardons son and chsnge the last name to Reardon. Since he was named for Henry Chamberlin or William roricks charecter. Who of course I still miss. Anyway Alan regarding my comments on Alan Spaulding. Of course I love ron Raines but looking back and seeing Chris bernue as Alan I think Alan should have died in 1989 but considering Ron's talent and chemistry with marg dusay as Alexandra I think he would have been suited maybe to have played another charecter that was Alexandra Spaulding new love interest but in today's context since the show did have Alan die. If we could find a, way to have 3 Spaulding siblings that all died but tie Ron as a new charecter that was married to marg dusays charecter who would be a Spaulding sibling but not Alexandra. But is widowed that would be nice so Ron as this charecter would be tied to the Spaulding household somehow. Anyway Alan I never liked coop and Beth at all as Beth and Phillip belonged together and that was just strange considering coop was with lizzie. But again was it no way any of the, actors fault Blake the writera for that and I do blame that Co headwriter whoike I said during the live chat ruined aw years, earlier. But gl was having problems Years earlier too with writing. Anyway happy 4 th Alan.

Same to you, Gabriel.
