Paul Raven

Linc was played by James Karen,who had previously been on ATWT as Susan's father.He was 47 at the time.Paul Dumont took over in 1970 until 71 Then Nicholas Pryor in 71,who was 36,so the character was de-aged, Linc was dropped and returned in 74 played by Peter White who at the time was 37.

Charita!!

That was a real transition time for the show.Wendy Riche and the Labines really tightened the focus. This article highlights a whole different era

Ben,Betsy and Mia

Marjorie never returned? Was Grace mentioned again?

George Reinholt commented on the 'madness' story,saying it was not realistically presented-one of his many gripes with the writing.

Didn't Pamela Toll play Liz Wilson on The Doctors.not OLTL? In that shot Amy Levitt looks very 'ethnic' Wanda had the hots for Joe

Cher was originally touted for the Ruby role but pulled out.

Sisters India and Ellen

Suz was a new friend that Ellen made post divorce. Madame Koster was a phoney(?) medium that was involved in the regression story. Stan was a PI that had a flirtation with widowed Kim. Cliff was a young cop.I think Brenda was a Stenbeck maid.No idea about Aaron. That cast list seems a bit random as I don't think Palmer and some of the others were on contract.

Marie Masters and Eileen Letchworth played mother and daughter Sharon and Hester.

Cast list from around that time

Julianna McCarthy went to test for Jennifer brooks on Y&R before being cast as Liz Foster.

That was reversed for Pat,and Russ never had children until the ret con in the 80's. Not really a way to ensure longevity of core family.

Janet was having an affair with Ken Baxter,the father of Tom,who impregnated Pat,arranged her abortion and was killed by her. She then got involved with Ernest Gregory,part of the Gregory family that James Lipton introduced.Agnes kept her on as asupporting character till he was ritten out in June 66.

In a SOD interview concerning her departure Jacquie Shultz comments that the past life and perfume stories were confusing to her in terms of Dee's character. Here is a SOd synopsis from early 82.I guess this is the Dobsons?

Viki with Dave Siegal

The original Matthews girls- Alice,Aunt Janet and Pat.Janet featured heavily in the story for the first two years and then Agnes dropped her.
