Guiding Light Discussion Thread
I think Megan McTavish is giving herself to much credit. I truly believe that Jean Carol's exit was due to Kim Zimmer rejoining the show. Once they made the decision to pair Reva & Buzz together, there was no place for Nadine. As Reva would take over as the love interest for Buzz, and working in the diner. Though I thought Soap Opera Digest had a brilliant idea of Nadine coming back. She stumbles back into the diner and says "I was kidnapped by aliens, and held hostage in a UFO!" - that would be brilliant plotline, and the storyline possibilities of Nadine trying to convince people she was kidnapped by aliens would be endless. It is a real-life situation as there are thousands of people who claim to this day, they were kidnapped by aliens.

Peter Haskell who originated the role was commuting from LA to NY to work on SFT. After a few years, he got tired of the grind and accepted a role on the LA based soap "Rituals" so he could be closer to his family. Joe Lambie, the next actor was reunited with his old "Edge of Night" producer Erwin Nicholson. When Nicholson left, I guess Joe decided to follow him out the door. In terms of Robert Reed, when you get older the parts are more limited. He didn't last long either, as I think he was written out after 13 weeks. He was difficult behind the scenes of the Brady Bunch, and I could see him being even more difficult on a soap, due to its fast pace.
