I've seen some of his Edward on YouTube, he was a good physical and vocal match for David Lewis. Christine Jones was an odd choice for Tracy.

The actors playing Alistair always seemed too young to be Julian's dad, Forsythe imo being the only exception on the above list. I liked Alan Oppenheimer (Skeletor, Man-At-Arms, Cringer, Vanity Smurf), one of my favorite voice over actors, providing the voice just as I liked fellow Filmation star Melendy Britt (She-Ra/Adora) doing the voice of Kevin's unseen psychiatrist on Y&R.

I'd rather DIE! j/k Target. On a dare, put a snake's head on your mouth for ten seconds or put a kitten's poo-poo in your mouth for thirty seconds?

It was such a trip reading that part from JDB about, "I think our audience wants to see more generations", I was like, "Oh she SO got that from Lemay!"

That would have been a sensible move, a big "duh" really. A lot of her and nuFrankie Alimi Ballard's stuff was with Pat too who was presumably still in PV (?), that I don't remember. Pat is LONG overdue for a visit, they act like she doesn't even exist anymore. Maybe she doesn't?

I only know Chasing Pavements, from that Lifetime movie commercial they played non-stop on cable. One of my childhood FB friends is always making status updates about her, it's about time I checked her out. I love that metallic thread in her voice. That video of her recording in her home is exquisite... the apartment, the sun, the set-up, that is the life. I love the antithesis of a talented blue-eyed soul Brit like her. Something about her is so much more genuine and touching than an Aguilera or Timberlake. No tricks. Just flat-footed sangin'.

Those were fun times! "What's a Wesley Ann Pfenning? " Kelly, Fletcher, Charlie, gosh, I'm starting to forget the others, but those guys has great Golden Age AW memories.

LOL, I also read that anecdote, I believe on both JTS and WoST and I believe I've even repeated it on here. I mean, I wasn't there so I really shouldn't judge and I doubt VW's losing sleep (or money) over this, but it goes to show how an alleged incident of bad behaviour from a celeb can just live on and on.

Deborah was always fun and I was glad that they at least gave her a happy ending hitting the lottery and buying the Alden mansion (though that's kind of sad and creepy in a way they could have done a Dark Shadows-like series with all the ghosts ). Jocelyn was an... interesting character. Not super charismatic by any means, but interesting because they told us she was with her past of hooking and all. And yet she never annoyed me or anything. I feel like the modern day equivalent of a character like her is what we end up getting with someone like Inez on OLTL. LL is an interesting performer because she's so unobtrusive and inoffensive and never really makes a big splash, she kind of acts under the radar, it's an (again) interesting quality.

Interestingly enough, I didn't think much about Ava not continuing to The City at the time. I did find the Tess/Sydney dynamic very interesting, the whole "two bitches are better than one" dynamic as I was more accustomed to a traditional Erica/Brooke or Viki/Dorian thing. They got out of Tess what they would have most likely gone for with Ava plus Ava was no longer a twentysomething and *gasp* a mother of young children and that really wasn't what they seemed to be going for. Tess had the glamorous modeling agency angle. Now of course Steffi was pregnant and Angie and Jacob tried to adopt Kayla, but that's different. Alex was freed up for Jocelyn.

I really liked Geraldine Page in everything the Loving movie and wish her character had stayed on, though maybe not because I'd totally be eating my heart out that her episodes would be unavailable.

I was watcing some program where Cranston was telling a funny anecdote about he and O'Hurley's Loving days, they got into an argument with some guy at a gas station and Cranston was saying how O'Hurley even argues the way he talks as Peterman.

A few pages back, I linked a site with screencaps of the movie, whoever runs that site must have it. Look out for it on Amazon/Ebay, several years ago I saw it on VHS in my local video store.

I don't remember Ann, I only know her from the pilot where she seems like a Lemay character. I wonder if she was difficult to write for with Isabelle and Gwyn and other ladies on the canvas especially when it seemed like she had a quiet energy that could have teetered on boring.

I'm foggy, but Cabot "died" and reappeared as an old guy wearing regular clothes and a baseball cap hanging out in the park. I remember the image of that, him sitting on the park bench talking to some stranger, yet I can't remember if he had amnesia or was faking his death and now in hiding (in Corinth no less) living as an average Joe. Actually, I think he did in fact have his wits about him. Eric? I agree that James Horan looked too young for Clay and he was way creepy which kind of works when you consider the whole mistaken identity weirdness thing, yet I'd think that one minute with Alex/Clay and the Aldens would be like, "Wow, you're so much cooler and not at all twisted and strange like your old self." Dennis Parlato and Larkin Malloy felt a lot more like one's idea of Clay, though that would have been a great role for Michael Zaslow who would have been a nice mix of Malloy's and Parlato's dastardly elegance and Horan's creep factor. Plus the tall lanky thing favors Wesley Addy.

These are great Carl! I love Episodes, I wish my mom didn't take all of hers to the beauty parlor to share with the ladies under the dryers. And yes, that's Roya in that clip. I didn't know that Randolph Mantooth had been replaced for a while.

Donna Mills looks so old in that pic! Like present day Angie Dickinson. And Grace Albertson looks like Miss Jane Hathaway.

And how long before we saw Paula's face because she's mentioned/heard playing the harpsichord off-screen from the very beginning.

CT, wouldn't you agree that the first Thomas was a more traditionally handsome soap leading man? The second, better known Thomas (seen in the clip above with Lizbeth, Tonja Walker) was more gawkward. And do you know how long the original Sam, Robert Sampson lasted? I've only seen him in the premiere movie. I know that Egan shared scenes with Carolyn Jones, so he must have joined during the first year, but I wonder if it had been months or even weeks before Sampson was replaced. I think Egan was a better fit for the role if I'm judging solely on looks/demeanor.

ITA, it sounds confusing, but worse, irksome.
