Another Life

Without giving away too much, your instincts about Sebastian are absolutely correct. Lance does return after he gets incarcerated. I won'r disclose the circumstances, but I will say that for a newcomer soap actor, it was like winning the lottery because only few actors get to do what he did. It's not that the storyline had any credence, but rather the fact that it could have given him a career boost. Unfortunately it didn't and he would eventually retire and become a psychiatrist...

There was a suggestion at some point that Peter and Marianne could have hit it on, that he could have been more than a friendly shoulder to cry on. Vicky #2's sudden departure (or what at least seemed like one for either contractual or other reason) created a problem and the story had to be exhausted. It seemed like the casting was rushed albecause 'Vicky' didn't look anything like Vicky, but she was more credible as an actress. The problem was her exit storyline which saw her get involved with... Lee Corathers' campaign. That's only one aspect that had to do with her eventually leaving, but U don't want to give away the rest. Let's just say the Corathers angle made sense, but her relationship with Peter made Peter look too foolish and altruistic beyond belief. BTW, Peter actually left 6-8 weeks before the show ended while others left a few months earlier.
Russ was certainly a very troubled man after his personal and professional upheavals, so I also get that he was haunted by the ghosts of the past and that his near death experience or the fact that he was clinically dead for a few minutes made him have visions of going to Hell as a perpetual boiling pot.
The fact that Nancy sued Ben may have made sense, but it felt so contrived. I understand that Nancy would have eventually reach a point where she would want to take her life, but not in the way it had Ben involved. It was just too much, an unnecessary complication in my view. I remember having a hard time with it. I barely remember Doug Hughes' role in all of this to be honest which just goes to show that the whole story arc came on my nerves. Doug approached Ben as a friend but was actually sent to 'spy' on him and get dirt for Nancy's lawyer. Only later did he switch sides, came clean and helped Ben win the medical neglect claim.
The New Carpenters were indeed introduced a few months before Charles and Miriam left around the same time. They didn't arrive all at once just like the Philipps' clan was gradully introduced, but the first new Carpenter's identity wasn't disclosed. We only knew his or her private name for a while and it was only later that the connection to the Carpenters was established.

One Life to Live Tribute Thread

Robin was an extremely broken woman. A decade before she died, she was standing out in the rain to get pneumonia because she was upset over who her widowed stepfather was going to marry. (she also went on to marry the man she had major daddy issues with - so I guess toxic father issues are one similarity)
I can see why Agnes Nixon wanted her to play Viki, but Viki was given the possibility of a happy ending - there was never going to be a happy ending for Robin.
I do wonder if Spencer ever wished she'd stayed longer at GL, but probably not. She never had an unpopular role on any soap and never played a character the same way.

One Life to Live Tribute Thread

Pretty sure there's some in this very same Paley Center episode, which they've likely been pulling those brief Carla/Sadie color clips from on SN over the last couple decades. (Ellen Holly and Lillian Hayman are in the credits on the Paley site for this specific episode with the other cast in this clip.) We just don't have the rest of this ep here.
I always got the sense Gillian Spencer's character on GL (from what I saw of her in Agnes' era anyway) was a neurotic, deeply damaged woman who had some really dark story by those years. Viki was troubled obviously but more of a heroine. But maybe I just didn't get a full picture of the earlier story on GL.

Yep. I don't mind the actor at all, but he just reads too young. It's like a boy wanting to play army.

Guiding Light Discussion Thread

For some reason GL was into gothic storylines at the time. Gothic novels were super-popular back then. (I had a friend who kept trying to force me to read them). The previous one was the Lucille Wexler/Amanda story. That ended with Lucille's death. The Quint story was meant to replace that.
Quint was originally this super-mysterious, almost creepy guy who live in a creepy house. Like in all good gothic tomes, Nola was the "innocent" who went to work for the creepy guy and ends up falling in love with him.
Maybe they were going to do a twist on the story because Marland said Kelly and Nola were his endgame. Maybe Quint was going to be the villain or spoiler for them.
But of course what happened is Quint and Nola caught on. Maybe Quint was always meant to be a Chamberlain, but a more villainous one.

Thanks for the tag. Those little clips are like gold. Jim Storm as Larry catches my attention the most because I'm so used to him done up in his Dark Shadows garb as Gerard, it's so weird to see him a contemporary setting. Similarly, I see Gillian Spencer and immediately think Daisy, but in just these few moments, you can see how well-suited she was to the ingenue role (which makes sense after her GL run).

I feel like we have to be close to finding something substantial from the Carla/Clara story.

Y&R: Old Articles

Fortunately for Andrea Evans's sake, she was rehired for One Life to Live shortly afterwards. For all I know, it might be safe to say that the CBS soap opera Capitol was doomed the moment that Ms. Evans reappeared as Tina Lord on OLTL circa 1985.
