Even though it happened on TV...it can not happen in real life !!!!

Been years since I've seen CBS soaps but wasn't Guiding Light's Roger Thorpe killed off and ressurrected three times?

Wasn't this the case with the evil Stefano DiMera on Days of Our Lives? It was the only soap I ever got involved with - in the mid 1980s when I worked a night job for a couple of years, and was home in the daytime. Stefano's evil plots were always finally foiled, and he would be defeated and "die" in some kind of dramatic fashion, but his body would never found. You know, he would fall into the lake (river, bay, whatever) and disappear.

Somehow, he would always be resurrected, and show up a few months later with a new evil plot. Ridiculous...

The Dukes of Hazzard-

A ramp or road crew always being there right when you need it.

Hoods, fenders, quarter panels, bar flashers/siren- seeming to just "fall off" the cop cars or fall off after a good kick.

Visits & singalongs with country music stars.
I beg to differ.... its not the jump that will hurt you, its the landing...

You have to remember Boss allocated the money to his road construction companies, so there were probably multiple crews working on the roads.

Most of the patrol cars were Chrysler/Dodge products of the 1970s. Need I say more...

I know our county fair had visits from Dolly Parton, Porter Wagoner, and Minnie Pearl back in the 1970s, and I know each year our local telethon called the "Crusade for Children" gets pretty good performers, so its not impossible to have good acts passing through the area.

Possibly. I know of one where he was running around with
a mask on, calling himself Adam Mallet, a CIA agent.

James Stenbeck (As The World Turns), I think, had died and
been resurrected at least seven times. And someone once
said he'd fathered maybe three thousand kids :); more likely
he's fathered half the kids in Oakdale, who knows?

Re Welcome Back, Kotter: didn't his wife teach his class the
last season? Would somebody tell me where she got her teacher
training?
