Seeing all the older episodes of my beloved OLTL was so wonderful. I forgot so many of the characters. I also forgot just how much soaps changed over the years. They were so much more melodramatic, which I love. I miss the real Buchanan feel of the show. The leather couches, the cowboy boots, Asa and his treacherous yet loving ways. Thanks for these memories. I am heartbroken over the show being taken off the air as are so many of us.
