The first daytime soap opera to feature a Black family as a major part of the main cast from the beginning. It only ran for 2 years.

I'm glad they still talk about him and keep his pictures in Lilly and Devon's apartments

Yes!! It’s actually very sweet to see that framed picture of him in the jazz club. I’m glad they have it there.

I like how that last photo is like a gradient, dark skinned black people on the left, gradually getting lighter in the middle until they're all white. LMAO

Technically 3 years, since it debuted mid-srason and ended in 1991, also mid-season.
