Jason47's Days Website 14 mins · A THIRD ALICE HORTON??...1972 ARTICLE STATES MARY K. WELLS WAS OFFERED THE ROLE BUT TURNED IT DOWN... "Days" fans might know that Mary Jackson portrayed Alice Horton in the first pilot that was taped back in the summer of 1965 (the role was recast with Frances Reid when NBC bought the pilot and turned it into a series). However, daytime history fan Matt has just unearthed this new piece of information, after browsing through a 1972 issue of Afternoon TV. In the issue, actress Mary K. Wells says she was offered the role of Alice Horton in 1965, but turned it down because she was living on the East Coast and didn't want to uproot her family and take her children out of school. She also stated that "I guess I love Betty Corday better than anybody in this business." Wells retired from acting in 1973 and then was a writer on "All My Children" for 20 years. She passed away in 2000.

Thought this locale looked familar

She left GH in 84 not 81 lol

MP shuld have axed Shue when Thorne Smith left and kept Doug as Matt. i never bought that Billy loved Sam plus both were gutted when he hooked up with Jennifer and she Dan Gauither I dont get why they dropped Craig. I thought he worked better with Jennifer

Yeah I remember Katie Wright signed to 13 episodes of Season 6 but maybe it was Heather's baby or Doug quit but she only did 3 in S6 and left with Doug

And that shows just how smart Lorainne is I wonder why ABCnever made Ginger Smith EP instead of JHC?

In 2009 Martha was up aganist Beth Ann Bonner & Alicia Leigh Willis for the role of Marah. After the cancelation announcement, GL decided not to bring Marah back And I dont get what Paul Burle's deal was

I was so excited for ths show back in 1992 because I had seen Amy Locane in Cry Baby & School ties, Courtney Thorne Smith in Day By Day and Josie Bissedtt in Hogan Family I was also intriqued that Elisabeth Shue's brother was playing Billy but now I wonder how Billy would have been with original actor, Steven Fanning Sandy had no purpose but I thought Amy was a diva and Spelling said get out I wish they would have kept Vanessa as Rhonda a least one more year to see what would have happened The writing in S1 was so choppy. Jane saus when she learns about her pregnancy that she is an only tried but just episodes later Sydney comes to visit. LOL

Yes her name is now Victoria Platt Tilford

PMR hated it and has admitted so. PB played CC like he was channeling game show host, Tom Kennedy and Alan Lutten

I liked Charles Bateman too. Peter Mark Richman and Paul Burke were horrible. To bad we never saw Lloyd Bochner. I bet he would have been great.

Right LB died Oct 2005. Maybe he was too sick to do GH in March 2004

Dorothy Lyman was only on the last two months. Was Pat Crowley fired for DL?

One of the names talked about as a potential Edward recast on GH in 2004 was Lloyd Bochner

Scott Evans (OLTL) & brother Chris Evans on Tonight Show http://youtu.be/LRcdHONEIuM

Id love to see that

whendid Jorn take over as EP was it before Dorthy Lyman came on

TY Angela That is exactly Ken & Lisa. It annoys me in the previews that Ken was like Ill never let you back in (I believe to Brandi) Im like why in the hell would someone wanna be their friend. Im sorry but I dont see why Ken & Lisa feel their pals should feel privileged to be their friends. UGHH

Another Victim of JFP. I hate that they had Stavros just kill her like that in Sept 2001 I also heard ot was that story taht was the last straw and why Stephen Nicholas quit at the end of 2001

Yeah they were I forgot that

A few years. She did a few eps of Dallas in 1979

Before becoming Delilah on OLTL, Shelly Burch also auditioned for roles on SFT & ATWT

Shelly Burch (Delilah, OLTL) http://www.welovesoaps.net/2014/03/where-are-they-now-shelly-burch-ex.html

Thom Racina was offered the HWing gig at OLTL in 1991. However, the deal fell thru. ABC hired Michael Malone & Racina went to Santa Barbara as staff writer under Pam Long

Andrea Bogart (ex-Abby, GH) has booked a recurring role on the new season of Ray Donovan according to deadline. Bogart will play the wife of Kip Pardue's character.
