LuAnn Query 16 Class History MFHS Comedy Shop With extremely low ratings, four years ago the “network” launched a new comedy soap series called The Class of 1981.” They had no choice. The first season opened with a quick ratings jump, but it rapidly began to slow down with the airing of our homecoming show. The theme was Melt ’em down” which came in fourth place. This season’s producers were Gary Bingamon, Dennis Campbell, Betty Coen, and Barbara Coffman. Headwriter was Terry James, Assistant Writer was Mike Reason, and the financial technician was Mary Ann Query. The network gave us another chance, and renewed our contract for next year with only one cast change — Julie Hart decided to leave the show. The second season opened with no major changes except that our financial technician was now Cherie Flow¬ ers. Ratings were considered low but picked up with the year’s homecoming show, “Trojan Fever.” It came in with a surprising third place. With cancellation being threatened, a complete cast change was initiated. After losing Sherri Chandler, Wayne Eggemeyer, Mike Little, Cheryl McBride, Karen Marley, Jackie Root, Craig Tail- man, Brett Winholtz, and Tim Whittenbrink, we gained Kenda Jones, Gary Bryan, Rob James, Brenda Johnson, Jim Story, Harold Peters, and Rick Reynolds. Even with the cast change, only the total combined force and enthusiasm of selling pens did the network even think about renewing the show for another season. The third season was to be our busiest and best. To begin with one of our producers, Barbara Coffman, was replaced by Jane Purvis. Our new Headwriter was Mike Reason, Assistant Writer was Scott Irvin, financial tech¬ nician was Dayna Grissom, and our secretary was Debbie Gentle. With no help from our fourth place homecom¬ ing show, We’ve got a victory in sight,” we managed to keep our average ratings with a success in our maga¬ zine sales. This year we had our first cast party in honor of one cancelled show, “The Class of 1980. This party, called The Prom,” was given the theme “In No Time At AH” and featured the band “Black and White.” The prom was the series’ biggest success. With this ratings jump the show was given one more season. But some cast members knew we had hit our peak so they left the show to go on to bigger and better things. These people were Rick Reynolds, Greg Riner, Jeff Smith, Jim Story, Jana Bower, Gary Bryan, Shane Salsbury, Dave Delmuro, Tina Owens, Harold Peters, Larry Durbin, Rob James, Cherie Flowers, Dave Altic, David Anderson, Dean Edgett, and Marc Farris. It sounds like the “Actors Strike,” but do not fear. We are proud to announce that we added Janeen Lohrenz, Sue Swick, and Sherri Chandler to take their places. Hurray!!! The fourth season was to be our last. As our show was coming to a close, our writers, Bill Hardy and Scott Kennison, were determined to make the show a last minute success. With help from our secretary, Karen Head, and our financial expert, Dayna Grissom, they began the new formatting of our show. With limited success in our homecoming show, “Mow ’em down” coming in a strong fourth, we did manage to bring some life into the show. We brought in new cast members: Craig Walters, Dan Smith, and Rick Nisbet to help with the reviving. Knowing that this was to be the last season, we had much difficulty writing out such cast members as Laura Bledsaw, Lori Michaels, Todd McBroom, and Terrie Schneider who found it necessary to leave the show. As the show came to an end, we found it necessary to review the past four years. We had a lot of fun, and many hours of enjoyment while at the Maroa-Forsyth Network — I mean High School. As in any soap opera, we each had our own affairs — some to forget and some to remember a lifetime. We a ll had our problems, but we all managed to live through them. We think about all the friends we have made — some which used to be enemies — but do we remember why? We all remember those special times we had together, from playing slaves to the seniors to our graduation night. Will this be the end? We do not think so. However small our class may be, we have been together a long time, and we each feel something for every other member of our class. The time now has come to part. We will each go a different way — some to college, some to work, and some to start a family, but we will all stay in touch, one way or another. Thanks Maroa-Forsyth for providing us with the best part of our lives!!
