Louis Edmonds like you've never seen him before.

[JoeNathan]

Apparently this is from another soap opera he as on:

When I read about that in his biography, I didn't know I'd get to see it!  Ruth Warrick really did get in on the action, lol.

[AngeliqueBouchard]

If I'm correct that is from "All my children". Oh!! I can't believe Louie did a thing like that.

[retzev]

What the hell was that?

[Teresa]

THAT was priceless!!! He looked pretty good too.

i wish i had never seen that.

that grotesque imagery will be burned onto my retina forever.

if i could try and date it i would guess that this was from the late 1980's.a time when louis' character had largely been written into the background.soaps often keep older characters around and then trot them out from time to time for events like weddings and funerals(and whatever this ghastly doing this was)without actively writing storylines for them.

this is actually a surprising amount of nudity for a daytime t.v. show.

Craig Hamrick didn't pin down the date in his book, but the events described before and after are indeed from the late 1980s.  He wrote that the soap event was a beauty pageant, taping had been dragging on, and during a long delay LE decided to liven things up.

so does that mean that this never actually made it to air and it's just some sort of out take?

mscbryk,
I thought the same thing, my eyes practically turned to stone!  haha  I will never be able to view Roger the same again.  BTW, it was great meeting you at the Fest and chatting.  And thanks for the heads up on the First Year of DS book, I am really enjoying it.

I do find it hard to believe that made it on daytime television in the early 80's. Love scenes or anything sexual back then was tame.

[CastleBee]

LOL...my sense of reality just took a slight shift!  I'd say that seemed a little wild for daytime even now.  If it actually aired then I guess you might say that his Langley character was a lot less repressed than Roger Collins.  The most I could see Roger doing would have been a few silly poses in front of a mirror - and then only in a tee shirt or fully dressed.

I hope I look that good when I reach that age.

I wish I looked that good now.

Yeah...exactly...

While I certainly have to give Louis credit for staying in shape over the years, I certainly could have lived a long and happy life without seeing so much evidence of his commitment to physical fitness.  

I never did care much for male strippers, and this video reinforced those feelings!

You know, I feel the same way about the whole idea too.  I find myself getting a bit embarrassed for them.

Now THIS is art.  (Forget about that doll video).
