jason, since there are no teenagers in these scenes I doubt if the current creative team would be interested. I will never understand this current assumption (which pervades FAR beyond Guiding Light and even extends to films) that young people ONLY want to see young people on the screen. I was 19 when this aired and thought it was FANTASTIC. And not a teenage character in sight...
These are great scenes to see, since there was so few between these thespians, Stephen Yates (Ben), Jane Elliot (Carrie), Sofia Landon Geier (Diane) and Jerry ver Dorn (Ross), since there was very little time of overlapping between the time when all four of these characters were on the GL landscape at the same time -- I think only a two or three month period of time from May to September 1981.
Great stuff. Wish GL would be good like this. They could learn a lot from even small clips like this.

It's definitely an interesting group of characters together. I didn't know Ben was married to Amanda, I thought they never got to the wedding.
