In that clip,Sunny is talking to her father Ted.Sunny's sister Laine is in the scene with Buck.The guy staring at the painting is Liza's brother Gary. This was all the Corrington's work. They did a great job of bringing in new characters and tying them to established characters,but the new structure they put in place was quickly dismantled. Whu Laine Adamson was dropped so quickly is a mystery,She was the mother of Stu's great grandson. And Chris Lowe played Eric for many years.- As The World Turns Discussion Thread
For those viewing at the time: I know Colenback was very popular in his first stint with the whole Dan/Liz story. Then he was dropped. Was he fired? Or was his contract up and he decided to leave or TPTB (Irna) decided to drop Dan? When Dan returned it was John Reilly who was popular as Dan in the Dan/Kim romance. When Colenbeck returned did he have the same chemistry with Kim/Kathryn Hays? Was his Dan vastly different to Reilly's?- Y&R: Old Articles
Wow ! Thanks for sharing that. So did early Y&R have background music completely borrowed from other Columbia soundtracks or was there original stuff also? That second theme I think was primarily used for Snapper with that languid, brooding music meant to reflect Snapper's personality.- Soap Opera Cast Lists and Character Guides- Cancelled and Current

Re the background people. I'm sure this is a budget thing as when an actor speaks they have to be paid more. I'd imagine TD, like other soaps of the time were produced on a tiny budget to maximize profit. So any way they could save money they would. I also read that once an actor had over 5 lines they became a dayplayer and from then had to paid at that higher rate,so the producers avoided giving them extra lines. I wonder when Carolee went on contract? Did she start as an extra,then u/5, then dayplayer before graduating to contract status? Also,I would think that the show had a certain budget for each week and to pay for something more grand eg Nick and Althea's wedding( which required a special set,costumes,extra actors etc) they would have to cut back in other weeks to balance the books. Or did NBC or C/P throw a little extra there way for this?Important Information
