P.J.

It is kinda surprising to me they never brought Gunnar back. Maybe if Brian Bloom had stayed, or the Hal/Barbara romance tanked, they would've considered it.

I think most east coast soaps benefitted from a wider pool of talent, given the proximity to theater actors. The soap hoppers post gives some idea of the width and breadth of some actors' careers. I mean, I don't think I ever would put together Benson's Governor Gatling--James Noble---ATWT without picture proof. Lol. And it's weird when you catch someone you know now, but didn't know at the time. I swear I caught Kristen Chenoweth as a maid on an ATWT eppy.

Don't remind me. I hated that twit Ellie for taking Iva's man. Kirk Iva forever!!

This is so weird...I've been binging ATWT a lot the last month or so, and wondered who played Anna. Now I know. I don't recall Stephanie K ever being mentioned (but the initial Kasnoff intro was forever ago). T. Jones was a fed, if I'm not mistaken. All I can for sure recall about her was that the "T" was a running joke. She wouldn't tell people her first name because it was actually Te Amo (ILY in Spanish ). I think she may have been running around town either investigating Damian (and Kingsley Malta) or hunting for James. Mark had rescued Lily from Malta.... Maybe that was all about Diego Santana? It was 96, and in early 97, Diego is killed and Lily charged with his murder. And no, that entire era wasn't well received. There was a HUGE purge of characters in late 96-early97, and the HWs canned. Stern&Black, if memory serves.

Nevermind. I see its not only occurring in this thread.

Was Tom O'Rourke already up? I swear to God I looked. But add ATWT Police Commissioner 2001 to his roles That's why I thought of him and Cindy.

Tom O'Rourke Cindy Pickett

I do tend to forget that Don and Eileen came on in 1960.

I don't think imdb expects the actors to do that themselves. I think fans submit that kind of stuff. And they must be uninformed fans at that. I've seen really off numbers for soap stars. All they'd really have to do is check the archives here to see how off some of the numbers are. Over at SOC someone did an analysis of screen time based off those numbers at imdb and they were severely wack.

I hear yah. I've been binging ATWT, where people wear true winter coats, talk about ice skating, hot cocoa. Where sets were decorated for the entire month of December lavishly, everyone had a tree, and presents. Sigh....

I miss ATWT more around the holidays too. No matter what was going on, there was always a sense of comfort offered along the way.

I'm not sure Sheffer ever really had a direction for Marshall past getting Barbara off for kidnapping Carly, Em and Rose. I think WT used the story to try and touch some social issues, but failed. (and while badly executed, it wasn't nearly as insulting as the Margo/Doc Reese/Jess "triangle" a few years later)

Sheffer also created T. Marshall Travers, who I thought had a lot of potential. Shamefully, ATWT probably had more black characters simultaneously from like 96-02 than they'd probably had the rest of their run. Ben, Camille, Camille's mom, Lew, Jess (was Jess ever gone, or do people just not remember JoAnna Rhinehart?), Issac, Bonnie, Curtis, Sarah and Denise (who gave birth to Kim's only known bio-grandkid) Granted, you can argue the strength of story lacked, but Sheff really worked at integrating their characters.

GTFO...Montgomery Clift?

It was the 9/30/04 episode.

Mistake mistake mistake

Yep. Dr Weiskopf. 2002. I would not be surprised if he made other appearances as Franco Viscounti either, but I'm not researching that, lol.

Yeah, I can't recall Jessicas''s brother in the 2000's at all. They did have a couple of Dallas Griffins, who was her nephew around 06, 07, 08.

Marie Marshall

Dr Joyce Brothers appeared on ATWT in 1981, according to the 40th anniversary book. Is Kurt McKinney really not listed? I swear I've checked the listing twice this morning, but don't see him

Hi. I'm not sure exactly where you are in this, so I'm not sure whether I'm helping or not. But in the 40th anniversary book, they have a "a day in the life" of ATWT with candid pics of rehearsal. They list it as episode 10155, tape day Wed 11-29-95, air date Friday, December 22.

YES!! I understand completely. As someone who grew up with the show always on, and who thought she had a good understanding of history, sometimes little nuggets blow my mind. (Like Bob being Nancy's youngest child, as my memories only begin in the 70's, when Penny was already gone and Don is just kinda a vague picture in a book) BTW, I checked the book, and Susan's mother is around until 1975. My guess would be Fred died. But I never recall Susan ever bringing up her mother.

Checking out his IMDB, he's done plenty of episodic television. He's even in one of my favorite MASH episodes, Say No More. (Margaret gets laryngitis, and Charles arranges for the lecturer (played by Karen) to come to the 4077.)

Kinda, but not really. I know he's been on shows I watched like Waltons, Golden Girls, etc. But thanks.

Burke, as in Susan's dad? The Bible gives his name as Fred and Karen's tenure as mid to late '60's. He truly is one of those faces you recognize, but can't exactly remember what from.
