- EON # 5201 MARCH-29-1976. With Donald May, Maeve McGuire and Dixie Carter,
Everyone is talking about how Nicole found out that Brandy spent the night at the Barn with Adam. Brandy has her engagement ring back, but will Nicole give Adam a divorce? Mike, Nancy and Adam realize that Serena may have regressed back into her split personality as Josie appears again.
God, the introduction of The Edge of Night (and the music) scared the crap outta me as a child!
It sure was spooky. And the light to dark. My mom watched it when I was little.
@@SharonRoseGabetMy grandmother watched it every afternoon around 3pm. There's an episode from 1976 , a man chasing a lady through a house that absolutely gave me the creeps. I was only 7 years old so I didn't understand what it was about. Does anyone remember this episode? I'd love to get some info, thanks
Same here! Especially how the announcer says "The Edge Of Night" 🌆. Did you see the episode where some dude was chasing a lady through a house. Around 1976? My grandmother just happened to be watching and when I watched that scene it was really spooky. Any info would be appreciated 😊
Ms. Gabet, thanks for these. Even without a narrative I still remember these stories as if I watched yesterday rather than 40+ years ago. You seem to be a thoroughly charming, fun person. I'm sorry we never met. I wish you every happiness. 4 generations of my family were fans of EDGE and of you. Thanks for years of mystery, love, and Raven's engaging selfishness! LOL
Thank you! I was so fortunate to have made my Daytime debut on this amazing show!
The ONLY other Soap Villian that was as NASTY as Raven to me was Gina Capwell Lockridge..When Robin Mattson plated her On Santa Barbara... Good acting !!On
@@MrCraigblaze I couldn't agree with you more. In fact, Sharon Gabet was the first " recast" of a character I had ever seen....making the character of " Raven" her own. The only other actor I have ever seen to do this flawlessly, was Robin Mattson. It takes a true talent to accomplish this and both Gabet and Mattson are true " pros" at this. IMHO
I'm LOVING THIS!! Mike and Adam! Quintin! Nicole and Brandy! Even the COMMERCIALS!! Thanks so MUCH, Sharon!!
Thank you again for this. Maeve Maguire is so chic - I love how Nicole refuses to let smarmy Clay Jordan get the best of her. I also love the conversation between Quentin and Brandy, which feels so real, very believable brother and sister. When Brandy says something dramatic and then says they could write a song on that - it's how real people talk. Great scenes with the Karrs too.
Finding these old shows was such a treasure!
Adam and Nicole..the memories😊 And Johnny Dallas..enjoying these sooooo much!! Isn't the kid actor named McKeon who played Timmy? First name, Dallas? I could be wrong about the name.
Thanks, Sharon, these are gems....started off with a scene with Mike and Adam. Forrest and Don were both so talented and are really missed by us honorary residents of Monticello.
Our ABC affiliate refused to clear The Edge of Night because apparently reruns of The Big Valley were more important. So it aired on a fuzzy UHF station as the lead-in to Lucy Show reruns. Great program flow lol.
What a treat to see performers like Sharon Gabet on social media sharing their memories and treasures like this. Thank you, Sharon.
Happy to do it. I loved EDGE so much.
best soap opera ever
I have seen a 1974 episode featuring Dixie Carter as Brandy; it's so nice to see a 1976 episode featuring her as well!
It is such a shame that the networks were careless with daytime dramas back then and didn't save all of the episodes ): It's so much fun to watch the pre-1979 episodes that have been saved! Recently I saw a 1972 As the World Turns episode and it is SO different!
So appreciative of all of these Edge episodes! I have seen everything from 1979-84 that has been made available, so much fun to see the few from before then!
Thank you for sharing this memory. My Mom and I watched her "stories" every day ❤️.
Michael Stroka!!! omg. So great to see these. Wow. Dixie Carter! Maeve! And the commercials! Thanks, Sharon!
OMG!!! I can't even begin to describe what I am feeling. The opening (my fave), Seeing Michael Stroka. I watched the entire Dark Shadow soap (65-71) from 2012 to 2016. I knew he looked familiar. Now, I remember where I know him from. That scene with Nancy and Timmy was was top notch. I got so excited just hearing the name Danny Micelli. I was hoping he was showing up next. Then there was Johnny Dallas. I can't believe how much I remember of these people. I was 9 or 10 when this aired. Too bad there was no Serena. Then, of course, the closing. Thank you Sharon. This was absolutely incredible. loooooove it.
I liked Brandy Henderson back in the day, but I never understood why Adam Drake was so indecisive. To me, there was no comparison: Nicole Travis Drake (and Maeve McGuire) was gorgeous and irresistible.
I was lucky enough to be on a few months before the one and only Maeve McGuire left the show. I adored her. A beautiful soul. My best friend Terry Davis (April Scott) is still in contact with her. She's doing great.
Sharon, I'm just going to keep thanking you for bringing these to us. 45+ years since I last saw it, but I remember so much about it. I was 14 at the time and life was getting busy with school and friends, but I made sure to be home every day to watch.
A classic episode in near-perfect quality, conplete w/original ads and from my hometown station, WABC...thanks so much for sharing!
Thank you for this treat. Brings back memories!
New York's Channel 7 logo was identical to the Channel 7 logo in Chicago. I love seeing these old soaps. It's a shame that before 1978 networks wiped them the way they did! I did NOT even recognize Dixie Carter at all!
ABC's owned-and-operated stations - in NYC, LA, Chicago, Detroit, and San Francisco - all shared the Circle-7 logo for many years. ...
Still do to this day, as a matter of fact ...
Thank you very much! I love this episode of EON! I love this year! Best wishes from Spain!
I had no idea Dixie Carter was on The Edge of Night. I think this was better I started watching it as a kid but probably not longer after. The commercials are flashback heaven.
Times have changed, love all of the old commercials. Now all you see is crazy drug commercials
And they have gotten worse even from 10 yrs. ago! All they show is people sick or near death, dogs lapping everyone in the face!! Prescription "drugs" and those disgusting side effects!! Yuck! I can't stand any of the new commercials !!!!!
Omg, I was following this, back then, and missed a few episodes because of life--and I had not seen this one. Ha! How cool is that? Thank you! 🤔 Hmm, according to the commercials, Terror on the Beach was the afternoon movie coming up next. That might be good for a total time-travel experience.
♥️♥️♥️ the vintage 'Edge'!! THANKS SO MUCH Sharon!
This made my day! Thank you!!!
So sad to learn of the passing of Donald May who played Adam Drake in Jan. 2022 during the broadcast of The Daytime Emmys In Memoriam segment. Mr. May was just one of many high profile former daytime actors and actresses who past this past year. 😔😔
It's amazing what a radical change this show went through in a relatively short period of time. I bet Ann Flood and Forrest Compton felt like they were on a totally different show with all the changes that would take place the last 8 years it was on the air.
Yes they were amazed. And me too as I entered during a time of immense change and RODE the waves! What an incredible trip!
I would love to hear them talk about that. Ann Flood certainly saw a lot of actors come and go on Edge. Of course, I'll bet John Beradino, Emily McLaughlin, Rachel Ames, and Denise Alexander must have felt the same way about the major changes that occurred on General Hospital. IMO, the change in All My Children from 1970 through the mid-80s was much more gradual.
@@rhsharp, All My Children remained stable for nearly two decades thanks to Agnes Nixon being involved in some capacity or another. It was her favorite creation, and she loved the show dearly. Its decline began when Nixon's role was reduced, and subsequent writers and producers turned it into something which eventually became unrecognizable, alienating long-time fans.
@@sedrickgilbert7682 Amen to that!
@@rhsharp Ann Flood is 87 years old now. And, Forrest Compton passed in 2020. 😔😔
I never started watching "The Edge of Night" until the late 70's until it got cancelled. Is that Dixie Carter portraying Brandy Henderson? It sounds like her!
It sure is!
This is fantastic! Thank you so much Sharon for paying to get these transferred to digital and posted to youtube. You are so sweet. Please tell me, and maybe others, how we can repay you for doing this? If not directly, maybe a charity we could donate to in your name? I can't give a huge amount, but every dollar helps. Again, thank you so much Sharon.
So sweet of you to offer! I'm good. Happy to contribute some joy to EDGE fans who have given me so much over the years.
@@SharonRoseGabet Ok, this coming weekend is a food drive by the Post Office by having people leave a bag of food by the mailboxes. I will do that. Thank you again for posting these.
Oh my, Oh my! This is wonderful! Thank you so much, Mrs. Gabet! This is actually a VERY RARE episode considering the fact that almost an entire vault of 1970s episodes of "Edge" were wiped from existance. How did you get a hold of this tape?
EDGE'S sound editor texted me to say he had some old reels that he didn't know what was on them. Would I be interested? I said YES. Cost me to get them transferred to digital but worth it for EDGE'S fabulous fans!
@@SharonRoseGabet Hi Sharon. Thank you so much for being willing to spend money to get these transferred to digital. Is there some way I, or maybe others, can help pay you back the money? If not directly to you, maybe to a charity that you support? I have no idea how much doing that cost but I am willing to help pay you back or donate to a charity like I stated in your name. Again, thank you, thank you, thank you. You are fantastic for doing this for us.
@@edgefan4437 I would also be interested in contributing.
@@fbueller Sharon replied that she was happy to spend the money for the fans to enjoy the footage and I ended up doing the mailman food pickup back in the middle of May. Sharon sent a comment saying that on one of the clips.
Wow! This is a trip down memory lane!
Wow--this is awesome, Sharon! :o)
thank you so much
Sharon, you are a treasure!
Excellent Sharon!
The Serena/ Josie storyline..a CLASSIC!!
Thank you for the upload 👍 ❤️ !! Was it EVER explained why there is an Oakdale On Edge of Night..And on ATWT's too ??
Perhaps it meant something to someone at P&G who owned both shows.
I just put together who is loading these! Wow how cool!!!
The little boy could act
Dixie Carter played a lawyer and years later she played a lawyer on the CBS drama, Family Law. Full circle?
And Designing Women! Love her character on EON as Brandy.
Sharon, please help me with my memory. I believe your first scene was at breakfast in the Whitney mansion. I recall Kevin and Geraldine there. Possibly Ansel and Draper Scott as well(?).
You are CORRECT! I remember it as if were yesterday. Kevin and Geraldine were there. No Draper or Ansel. I walked in with Draper hating Raven and heading to April. Raven had already slept with Draper's father, Ansel... Those were some pretty spiky stilettos I walked into!
@@SharonRoseGabet Sharon, I think the reason I remember your first scenes is because it was the first time I had ever seen an actor take over a role ( I was in grade nine lol). I liked Juanin Clay, so it was a bit jarring.....BUT not for long! Lol. I felt you took " RAVEN" to a whole new level..No easy feat.I think there are few actors that can accomplish this. (Actress Robin Mattson also comes to mind).
Thanks so much for uploading! I'm a fan of Dixie's so I check back frequently to see if you've got more of her work on EON, as I have seen very little of it. Did you work with her on the show? What was she like back then?
Unfortunately, Dixie was gone by the time I came on the show.
I just heard about the passing of Donald May Jan 22nd 2022 at the age of 92.
The amazing Dixie Carter.
What is this "Barn" that they refer to?
The Barn was an actual barn in rural Oakville that Adam converted into a private residence. The set was used from 1975-77. It was phased out after Adam was murdered, and a widowed Nicole decided to start a new life in Monticello.
That’s Bruno from Dark Shadows
Nancy fragione and sharon gabbot should have won daytime emmys!!! Them 2 as well as beverley mckinzie and helen gallagher were amazing actresees of any genre!!!
Nancy was fabulous. And hilarious!
Any chance we’ll see Raven and Kevin? He was her first husband. Or better yet, Raven and Logan getting married?
Yes! A small scene with the newlyweds coming up.
@@SharonRoseGabet Looking forward to it!
omg even a commercial for GARANIMALS!!!!
It's just a regular barn.
Was Brandy a good girl or bad?
I'm not sure. She was gone by the time I arrived. She was a lawyer and she was involved with Adam Drake. I think she was good with some spunk.
Brandy was a good girl, but the writers made her a possible suspect that was trying to kill Nicole when she came back to Monticello after having escaped the Island of the mob boss. Sorry I don't remember his name. This is when I really started watching the show a lot, and each Friday's cliff hanger, it seemed, was a gun was pointing at Nicole or some other weapon to kill her, and everyone had to wait until Monday to see what happened.
@@edgefan4437 Soaps will never be THIS good again!
I was only interested in the 4.30 Movie.
