Ava and Nina are both something of a struggle for me, but when she gets the chance I think Watros can find more of a real person in Nina, whereas Ava, outside of some nice moments with her female friendships, is all artifice.

Jack Lemmon would be another.

Welcome back @Maxim great to see your reviews again.

He does have a big ego, but the ballet and the opera are in a very bad way and there's a good chance theaters will go the same way. You'd think Spielberg, who is a big part of why art left films due to stuff like Jaws, would know what he means, but many just wanted to take a pop because everyone loves trends and bandwagons. I've seen a great deal of anger over her win, comparing her to Jamie Lee Curtis, and so on. I don't give a damn. I'm happy for Amy, for Field of Dreams and Uncle Buck, and so much else.

He hasn't been for weeks, if he ever was. Him losing the BAFTA was the big sign. He's not well-liked, and that matters. You can see it in the ridiculous response to him pointing out that most people don't go to the ballet or the opera. MBJ is the current favorite, but there's been enough of a racist backlash against him that I wouldn't be shocked if Ethan Hawke wins.

Ewa da Cruz (Vienna, ATWT) said she read for Lucy Montgomery. Thanks to @slick jones for finding the article. Spotlight On ... Ewa Da Cruz (Vienna Hyatt, ATWT)

Thanks @slick jones some audition info on Ewa I didn't know. Sorry if you already updated/mentioned and I forgot, but David James Carroll (Knots, AW) was also on Musical Chairs in August and September 1975. Gretchen Wyler (Somerset, Santa Barbara, Falcon Crest, etc.) was on in August 1975.

Thanks. I can't say I would have been able to stomach those scenes. HB being mentioned just makes their later marriage even more offputting.

I wonder if this is the same abuse Josh threw in her face when she returned in 1995 (which disgusted me).

Thanks!

This is probably more for the Search thread but I do remember an opening credits shot from the last few years of her with a guitar.

This channel has some of her singing on Search. Here's a nice song she did with Michael Nouri. I am not sure when she stopped singing (can't remember if she did much on Search in the '80s).

I hadn't thought about it before, but I can definitely see the A-M/Blake path with Sherry in the role, as Blake started in such a position of power over him, then by the time she was leaving the role, he was in a position of power over her. Once she hit the bricks with Ross and Alan-Michael would be dumped by Eleni, they would be more of equals. I'm not sure how I would have felt if they'd paired them with Liz in the role. I thought it took her several years to find the part.

I'd forgotten about this - a fan recreation of Mission to the Unknown (the setup story to Daleks' Master Plan). Mission to the Unknown Recreation | FULL EPISODE | Doctor Who

You probably already knew this but just in case - the channel has several episodes featuring Mary Stuart.

Neither had I. I don't remember if Kelly ever talked about it. I checked and couldn't find any mention from her, even though I'd think it helped give her some experience for Regis & Kelly.

I wonder if there are more people at home due to the economy.

Thanks @Jonathan that was moving. An episode of a short-lived music show co-hosted by Kelly Ripa. Music Scoupe (March 13, 1994) @alwaysAMC You may enjoy this.

I think there is still some audience for a talk show compared to podcasts, but many of those viewers are aging out. Others stopped watching because of all the heavy political focus. I'd guess Seth Meyers will be gone within two years, Fallon and SNL maybe three or four.

William Hartnell growling "DALEKS!!" in heavy close-up with dramatic music finishing the scene off is utter perfection. There are also some Nic Courtney scenes in here that weren't in the other clip. The TARDIS in the early years of the show looks so cold and expansive. One of the positives of the Disney revival was trying to go back to that type of TARDIS.

Thanks so much for sharing this @Franko I kept wondering when Don's episode would appear as they had posted a short of it. I had no idea Eileen was ever on the show. There must be 4-5 episodes of them if they are still surviving. @zanereed @Mitch64 @slick jones @vetsoapfan @Khan @Soapsuds @Tisy-Lish @All My Shadows @wonderwoman1951 @Paul Raven @SoapDope78 @Soaplovers @Speed Racer @GL Oldtimer @DeeVee @Spoon @P.J. @Vee @DramatistDreamer @dc11786 Sorry for anyone I forgot to tag.

I can see where the pacing might seem brisk, but when I'd watch I also felt like not much was happening. Maybe the combo is what alienated viewers. I would have loved seeing Moltke in this story. I would have put her in the Angelique role for this story. I know that would have cost us Lara Parker but they could have easily had the real Angelique cross over to "save" Barnabas, as Julia did. Maybe even have her as some brain dead schemer in PT and then the real Angelique kills her, saying to the camera, "There is only ONE Angelique." I liked Donna Wandrey, but Roxanne was so vapid, never given a chance to be an actual character. The only chance Donna gets is her brief run in 1840. Kate Jackson is a big what might have been for me as I just didn't connect with her stories on the show (it didn't help that she was in the shadow of the divine Virginia Vestoff [who blew her and many others off the screen] and Lara Parker - she did manage to get in some good work as a dying Daphne in 1841 PT).
