Members Melroser Posted February 7, 2013 Members Share Posted February 7, 2013 I completely blocked out Cass Winthrop's brother Morgan. Other than his entanglement with Lorna (being accused of her rape) he didn't have much a story. Rex always had "family" on OL even if he never knew who his real family was. I wouldn't really say he was an "alone" character. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cheap21 Posted February 7, 2013 Members Share Posted February 7, 2013 true. He came on attached to Natalie whom was firmly planted in the Buchanan/Lord family, which she remained to the end and he wound up being retconned into the family.

Members greens_dupres Posted February 8, 2013 Members Share Posted February 8, 2013 Those summer escape promos were my favorites. There was another one for Leo/Greenlee and I can't remember but maybe an OLTL one with Jessica or Natalie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members VirginiaHamilton Posted February 8, 2013 Members Share Posted February 8, 2013 I'd heard that they were thinking of making him Alexis' long-lost son but decided to go with Sam as her daughter, instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members frequentsoapfan Posted February 8, 2013 Members Share Posted February 8, 2013 I thought he and NL had some chemistry but it was obvious they wanted us to root for NEM. She actually had more chemistry with CB the last time she was on the show than she had with TC the entire year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members VirginiaHamilton Posted February 8, 2013 Members Share Posted February 8, 2013 Same here and ditto to missing the music of old GH. I think I'll spend the blizzard rediscovering Original Recipe Emily & Zander, so thanks for the idea, Ann... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members SoapSurvivor Posted February 8, 2013 Author Members Share Posted February 8, 2013 Alex on OLTL, she hung around for about 10 years. I don't know if she was leading, but she was popular and unforgettable. The same could be said of Marty, they even gave her a child and she wasn't even on canvas.

Members JackPeyton Posted February 8, 2013 Members Share Posted February 8, 2013 Gosh, i loved this promo. And this story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members alexisfan07 Posted February 8, 2013 Members Share Posted February 8, 2013 That ad proves Liz was considered a lead character by ABC at one point. Very nifty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cheap21 Posted February 8, 2013 Members Share Posted February 8, 2013 I wouldnt have considered her lead in that story. That triangle involved her playing a supporting role as part of the umbrella story revolving around Brenda's return and that fell through rather quickly as Liz and Zander didnt progress beyond a few kisses and Jason was quickly moved in Courtney's direction. She defintely had potential to become lead but the direction of her story changed too fast to actually make that happen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members alexisfan07 Posted February 8, 2013 Members Share Posted February 8, 2013 I'd say people define lead differently but I know Liz was in some of those GH cast banners on the ABC site, even before Monaco was and they were both on the show. Perhaps it was just a contract stipulation but her likeness was being used to promote the show regardless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cheap21 Posted February 8, 2013 Members Share Posted February 8, 2013 I talk about lead in context with story and that can involve having it revolve around a character who is central to the plot. She wasnt really a key figure in Brenda's Return story and the triangle was barely given focus on its own. It was more of a B level side plot to the bigger picture and the show didn even care enough about it to develop it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members VirginiaHamilton Posted February 8, 2013 Members Share Posted February 8, 2013 IMO, Liz was on her way to lead when LL2 took flight in the late 90s. The natural choice would've been to bump her up to that level after Brenda "died" and Robin left, yet this stupid show chose not to strike that iron when it (or she) was hot.
