Are you enjoying all these classic soap rarities that I am bringing back to stay?
Enjoying every second!! Thanks so much!!!
Great to get a glimpse of GL from this era!
Edwyn Sanchez I’m binging on these. Thanks bunches!
More, more, more!! My favorite soap. Thanks!
You are God to me 😘
Everyday at lunch, my late mother watched this show and Search for Tomorrow on WCBS Ch 2 back to back from 12:30 to 1pm
When we had Summer vacation, I was always with my mom, watching GL, SFT, ATWT Y&R, EON and LOL back in the 1970s. I got hooked.
I enjoy both the Guiding Light and the classic commercials from that era, thanks.
Me too
The commercials are simply the best.
Bill Bauer played by Ed Bryce, father of Scott Bryce, the first Craig Montgomery on As the World Turns.
Didn't know that!
I didn't know that
@@rhondahancock96 In future years alot of Soap Actresses had Family who followed in their footsteps. Julia Barr's Daughter Alison Hirshlag briefly played Nice Girl Lizzie Spaulding on Guiding Light, Kim Zimmer's son Jake was on As The World Turns and then All My Children. On Coronation Street (UK) the actress who plays Hope played by Isabella Flanagan has a twin brother William who plays a young man named joe while on Emmerdale their Sister Amelia plays April Windsor.
@@rhondahancock96 Also Phoebe Dyvenor from Bridgerton is the daughter of Soap Legend Sally Dyvenor who has been playing Sally Metcalfe on Coronation Street on and off since 1986 and her Father Tim Dyvenor is a writer for another Soap Opera Emmerdale that Jenna Louise Coleman was on from 2005-2009 who played Jasmine Thomas.
Linus Roache (Law And Order US) is the Son of Bill Roache who is now Britian's Longest Running Soap Opera Character who has been playing Ken Barlow on Coronation Street debuting on December 9th 1960. He did a memorable scene with Sarah Lancashire who played Raquel a Barmaid. She is now an Icon who has done Julia, Last Tango In Halifax and Happy Valley.
I listened to TGL on the radio then on TV. This was my favorite soap.
Sadly, Nancy Malone who played Robin, died in 2014. There’s a clip here on UA-cam from Archive of American Television where the interviewer asks her what she remembers about her time on GL. Nice to hear that she had fond memories from working on the show. 😊😊
I bet it was a shock for viewers when Robin committed suicide in 1967.
@@travisjames3517She was very pretty
Nancy Malone isn’t playing Robin in this episode. Abigail Kellogg is Robin.
I think that Bert was much more beautiful as she got older. It was as if she went from a young wine that was not matured , to a well-aged, mellow wine. Her smile lit up every scene she was in. Especially when she was with her granddaughter Hope.
Yes, Mr Sanchez, I am enjoying these old shows. I appreciate the commercials, also
Thank you for sharing them with us.
Bert was always my favorite character - love seeing her before she made the transition from meddling mother to beloved matriarch. ♥♥♥
Who played Bert? This looks like it was an excellent Soap
@@brookehanley3659 Charita Bauer played Bert starting in 1950 on the radio version of GL and stayed in the role until December 1984. She died in February 1985. In her final year on the show, she played out her real-life drama when Bert had to have her leg amputated (Charita had previously gone through the operation due to complications from diabetes).
@@tnate6004 Okay, thank you. I thought so. I hardly recognized her so young.
There is a destiny that makes us brothers...none goes his way alone...all that we send into the lives of others...comes back into our own.
....and now, THE GUIDING LIGHT. Created by Irna Phillips.
@@EdwynNSanchez So many soaps were live even by 1961, But this says "pre-recorded at the end.
@@MrJoeybabe25 I believe Edge Of Night was the last live soap and that ended in 1975 I believe.
Yes so happy to see them such precious memories watching with my mother She lived to be 97
That 4-layer cake looks soooooooo decadent. I'm going to try and make one. Perfect for the upcoming Holidays.
Duncan Hines’ was the only cake mix I bought
This was such a treat to watch at the end of my work day. I wonder what happens next!!
12 days later a group now called The Supremes signed with Motown.
Also on January 15th 1954, The Canadian Broadcasting Company debuted that showed All My Children, One Life To Live & Dallas over the years. Now their local networks show UK TV, Sports Shows, and Documentaries.
Wow, this is amazing! I was 5 years old when this was televised 😊
The chocolate cake Dunkin Hines commercial was everything, I might need to pick up a box and make a 4 layer cake.
The Music in the background for Duncan Hines reminds me of the old school educational films I would watch in the 1970's although the stories took place in the 1950's.
That Duncan Hines commercial, though. Four layer chocolate cake. *Drool*!
Holiday season coming. Will definitely be making one....or two.
Love this!!!! Thanks for sharing. Wish we could see more
Ty for posting this so much fun to see Bert and Bill and Papa younger
Was Papa German?
@@brookehanley3659Yes
I love watching especially with the old commercials I'd love to see some old Edge Of Night!
Bert talks about Trudy and it was originally played by the Late Helen Wagner who played Nancy Hughes McCloskey on As The World Turns from 1956-2020. She as you know is next to Don Hastings (Ex Dr. Bob Hughes) as well as UK Legend Bill Roache who has been playing Ken Barlow on Coronation Street from 1960-Present as the longest running Soap Actors in TV.
Bert, Mike's a Grown @ss man, he doesn't want to stay at Aunt Trudy's because he doesn't want to be underfoot. Also when a person from one family lives with another, it can be complicated. New person, other groceries, a different personality, etc. Dick Clark stayed at The Y for awhile when he started out and he used to eat at a Diner around the corner. He moved back home to save money to get married for a year, after he got divorced, he rented an apartment in the city of Philadelphia.
I was born in 1966 so I didn't know anything about The Bauer Family for a very long time. I first got familiar with them when I read the old school soaps and serials published by Pioneer Communications (A Poor Man's Harlequin Books), I saw the struggles that Mike went through, most notably when Mike left Springfield for Bay City to work with John Randolph. I loved how Mike called out the name "Papa". Bert was such a pain in the ass, sadly even mike leaving wouldn't change what happened between him, carl and robin. Even robin was a problem child being born under questionable circumstances. What's so eerie is that 38 Years later, Michelle Bauer (Mike's Neice), would go through a similar thing when Danny Santos (her husband took off the ring), then decided to leave but of course they both came back. Danny & Michelle lived in New Orleans, LA., while Mike moved to Washington, DC.
Can you imagine how surreal it must have been for Theo Goetz to work with various Bills, Berts, Eds (whose real name is William Edward Bauer Jr.), and Mikes. In the UK on Eastenders Joanne Warne originated the role of Peggy Mitchell but it was Barbara Windsor (who was made a Dame by The Queen), who made the role her own.
Then Five Years later, poor Papa Bauer would live in a Hovel of an Apartment because Bill said he didn't want him around.
This is a treat to get to see Ed Bryce (Bill) and Bert (Charita Bauer). She was a real "case" back then, especially to Bill. No wonder he drank..lol. It was amazing how the show "softened" her character in the mid 70's to a more kind, sedate lady. Bill Bauer was killed off in '68, brought back in '77 and the storyline got too muddled and they decided to scrap it. He was only on a few months and left town again. These episodes are such a neat travel back to the past. Thanks so much for posting these. Marvelous!
Bert looks so young and thin
I am loving gthese episodes!❤❤❤
I really love the Germaseptic Dreft commercial (which starts at 7:47) Because I think that washing diapers in Germaseptic Dreft is really better than boiling.
at 9:49 you can see a camera start to come into view behind Robin in the hallway.
...and Comet is still around today....as well as Ajax.
It’s amazing how we’ve known for a long time that Comet really bleaches out stains and wipes out germs as no other leading cleanser can and Ajax indeed cleans like a white tornado.
@@EdwynNSanchez Those White Tornado commercials scared the hell out of me when I was a kid. That music.
Ajax’is and it has a great smell but it does not compare to ‘Comet’ which is a superior cleanser.
This is great! Thanks for posting.
Can you imagine how quirky it was to have your character's name be your "real" name. Sally Dyvenor (Mother Of Phoebe Bridgerton) plays Sally Metcalfe, and two other Actresses who play Jenny Connor & Abi Webster are also named Sally Ann Carman & Sally Duttine on Coronation Street in the UK. Then Frank Dicopoulos plays Frank Cooper.
There was a similar scene in the 1982 Movie Diner where Billy sees his friend Barbara who is pregnant who works at a TV Station in Baltimore, MD. Their discussion on The PA System, is at the same time where there's a romantic movie as part of the late night movies. The way the scenes interact is amazing. Poor Papa, he lives in a beautiful home and then five years later he lives in a hovel of an Apartment. Chris Hughes (ATWT) would never allow his "Pa" to live under those circumstances.
It seems like P & G had an expert for everything, but I barely remember the nurse for Germaseptic Dreft!
Then in the future P & G would acquire the rights to Gilette and Braun as well as Maxwell House Coffee. In The UK all of the Soaps are independently owned but when they have a scene with a Convenience Store, they "show" the actual products. When Eastenders celebrated it's 35th anniversary in 2020, King Charles (still known as Prince Charles) and Camilla visited the set. The Royal Family love UK Soapas.
Tuesday January 3, 1961..
and you guys still have a long long time to remember me including my parents and my uncle and my cousins.
Bill & Bert Bauer got married on December 9th and in 1960 The UK Soap Opera Coronation Street debuted. Sadly it was the same date that John Lennon got shot two months after his 40th birthday.
This must have been the time Mike was recasted, as he went away.
Actually Paul Prokop, who would replace Michael Allen, started the playing the role of Mike next year. He only lasted a year.
This Michael here needs a hit of Helium. His voice is so deep.
@@shawnvilla9912Who played Mike in this scene and why did he go away
@@laminage Michael Allen played the role of Mike during this time. Mike went away to Venezuela as his marriage to Robin was over for two reasons: 1. His mother Bert had opposed the marriage from the beginning and had wanted it annulled, pushing Alex Bowden to pursue Robin, who fell in love with him and 2. Mike had felt guilty about his part in the accidental death of Karl Jannings, whose mother Ruth had married Robin's stepfather Mark Holden, a marriage that Robin opposed from day one and had led Karl on with the intention of hurting him. She broke off their engagement, telling him she never loved him before immediately eloping with Mike and delivering the news to Karl on Meta's patio, before Karl lunged at Mike, fell on the iron table and sustained head injuries, from which he later died from and which Mike was charged for manslaughter, of which he was cleared of.
@shawnvilla9912 Thanks for the info. Also Venezuela is where the Lewis Family have a Business. Josh went there to live and worked on a Oil Rig and Bill went to Venezuela 🇻🇪 on a Business Project.
‘Comet’ is still the best hands down
Also Michelle & Danny's Son Roberto has the middle name of Frederico which was the name of Danny's Grandfather and Frederick is Rick's Real Name, and of course his Paternal Great Grandfather.
Love the commercials.
I don't remember Papa Bauer EVER talking like Dracula!! Very odd and kinda scary!
😂😂😂
Robin says she had been to the Bowden Art Gallery--she would become involved with Alex Bowden, before eventually marrying Dr. Paul Fletcher.
Carter Bowden(son) , would marry Lainie Marler(sister of Justin and Ross Marler) in the 1980's.
thoses stare downs :)
Soaps were so simple in that day . Written by one or two people . Staged rehearsed and performed in one day ---live . Everybody went home , Small casts of under ten people ! No long pages of dialogue to remeber !
Can we please get more 60s guiding Light?
I have more Guiding Light from the 60s..... This time, it’s all random episodes from 1966 and I might include two episodes from 1953.
@@EdwynNSanchez can you please post? I love these vintage guiding light episodes
Yes especially the episodes that had cicely Tyson ruby dee and Billy dee Williams the latter also did another world wish these old episodes were still available I read that even Darth Vader himself was also on the show besides doing as the world turns there must be tapes somewhere that someone could put on UA-cam please
Neat love too 🔍 young and the restless Kay driving over the cliff with Phillip.
If only I had that Y&R episode, @chuck 46, but unfortunately I don’t have it. The only Y&R episodes I have are the very first episode and the episode of Victor and Nikki’s wedding.
@@EdwynNSanchez Would you happen to have any episodes that had the original Jack Abbott, Terry Lester?
@@shawnvilla9912 - Sadly, I don’t. Sorry!
@@shawnvilla9912 I liked Terry Lester as the original Jack Abbott. But when Peter Bergman took over the role, he devoured it. It shocked me at first to see Gallant Dr. Cliff Warner from AMC turn into scandalous Jack Abbott. Mr. Bergman took that role and made it his own. Great Actor.
Italian Telecommunications Only.
I wish that we could see the classic Search for Tomorrow episode where Jennifer Tate Phillips, who was pregnant, was arguing with Scott Phillips, her husband, fell through the glass patio door, got cut to pieces and landed on her baby. I will remember that forever. Classic.
SAME! She was played by Morgan Fairchild! I remembered that scene and the commercials that kept repeating the fall over and over again! It was so violent! Only earlier this year was I reminded the show itself was Search for Tomorrow! I hadn't remembered that part at all 😆
I just didn't know Jennifer was pregnant!
@@AlansNewMutantShe miscarried the baby in the fall.
🙏😆👍
don't you guys even know I'm uncle Randy's niece not his sister. the one that is his sister is my mom.
Why is Robin's wedding ring so big? It's big enough for the 50 foot woman. Lol
I'm not lying I'm telling you girl the truth. about it.
ok psycho...
In the Dreft commercial ... Did that woman say "diaper ass germs"?
Diaper rash germs but it sure sounds like ass.
