KHC is Keith Hamilton Cobb, he played Noah back in the 90's. He was Julia's husband.

OK. thanks. When I watch episodes from then I should be able to remember his name.

Noah is unforgettable IMO, especially his amazing pairing with Julia.

OK. Good. I'm seeing on YouTube that this "Prospect Park" version had a different theme song I hadn't heard of before. Opal's son showed up too. I don't remember him.

Yeah that's her son with Palmer, Pete Cortlandt. He was more of a dweeby teen on the network version, then on the PP version he became this beefcake.

Actually the actor who played Pete on the Prospect Park version is on Days of our Lives now as Ben. Jesse and Angie's adopted daughter Cassandra that was on the PP version is also on DOOL now, she plays Lani.

OK. I'm seeing her. She got kidnapped it & then a man slapped her. I guess profanity was used on this show as well.

This! That would be amazing.

I don't know if you all knew this, but the creators of FRIENDS were actually huge AMC fans. In fact, they wanted the soap Joey worked on to be AMC, but they had to use DOOL cause the show was on NBC. All the Friends characters were named after AMC characters.

Chandler = Chandler Family
Joey = Joey Martin
Ross = Ross Chandler
Rachel GREEN = Janet Green
Phoebe = Phoebe Wallingford
Monica = Daisy "Monique" Murdoch

There was an episode of Friends where Chandler and Monica came back from their honeymoon after meeting a couple named GREG and JENNY.

Then in the final episode, Chandler and Monica named their twins... JACK and ERICA.

Also that scene where Ross says Rachel's name at the alter was a direct copy of a very similar scene on OLTL back in the 80's with Tina/Cord/Max.

^I never really watched Friends, but that is pretty awesome and interesting. I never knew that, thanks for posting

A week later, and EW decided to finally upload the Vincent (Dr David Hayward) interview

[Butterfly85]

The only EW interview I watched was the one with the Santos. The others just had characters I either didn't care for or were characters after I watched. If their as good as the one with the Santos siblings, then I'm glad they put these up for fans to enjoy.

The Vincent one is interesting to me because he goes into the behind the scenes as to why the show got cancelled. He says the exec of ABC (probably Brian Frons) put his hand into stories, and kept pushing out people like Agnes and Lorraine who knew the show. He said Frons basically made one bad decision after another for 9 years (Frons took over ABCD in 2002) until it was cancelled.

Holy crap, I never made that connection. That is hilarious. . That is a great piece of trivia.
