Members stenbeck212 Posted November 19, 2007 Members Share Posted November 19, 2007 Anna Stuart played Vanessa on GL. Let's just say Maeve Kinkead had nothing to worry about. Hayley Barr from ATWT played Harley too. Not quite believable as Buzz and Nadine's spawn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dm. Posted November 19, 2007 Members Share Posted November 19, 2007 Sydney Penny temporarily replaced Susan Ward as Meg Cummings on "Sunset Beach" during October-November 1999 when Ward was filming a movie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Chris B Posted November 19, 2007 Members Share Posted November 19, 2007 I find this hard to believe, considering how dreadful Ferguson was as Felicia on GH. So much botox that she couldn't emote at all. Horrible actress. I have one episode of Y&R from 1984 with Melinda Fee as Temp!Jill. She looked as old as Jill is now, but she was a good actress. More grounded in her bitchiness than Dickson. The storyline was Jack and Jill being blackmailed with photos of them having sex, by Lindsay Wells (Lauren Koslow).

Members AmandainNC28655 Posted November 19, 2007 Members Share Posted November 19, 2007 I may be in the minority here, but I enjoyed Portia Reiners (now on OLTL) as the temp recast for Leven Rambin's Lily on AMC. I did not enjoy Christina Chambers in the temp recast role of Molly on ATWT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members R Sinclair Posted November 19, 2007 Members Share Posted November 19, 2007 On GH, when Susan Diol subbed for NLG's Alexis a couple of times -- Diol had NLG's Alexis' mannerisms, but her voice was distracting. Jay Pickett subbing as Lorezno for Ted King was also kinda odd. AMC recast Aidan Devane when Aiden Turner had that green card glitch and couldn't appear onscreen and the recast was HORRIBLE! They were already trying to start a fire with a wet match concerning the boring coupling of Aidan and Anita -- but the temp recast took over with his awesomely bad British accent, it just killed any hope for that couple. AT ALL. Also on AMC, the actor (his name escapes me) who took over the role of Mateo Santos while Mark Consuelos was shooting a movie in Australia was kind of a mix blessing. While I think he needed to take a few more diction classes because he'd mush his words together a lot, he actually made me not utterly hate the Mateo character. It was refreshing not seeing Mateo grabbing women, putting his finger in people's faces, snarling and baring his mega white teeth all the time.

Members JackPeyton Posted November 19, 2007 Author Members Share Posted November 19, 2007 did you see Sandra's amazing run as Amanda Corey on AW? she is far from a horrible actress. KKL... now there is a horrid actress. I didnt know Cat Hickland filled in for her as well. I must find these episodes somewhere. I find it funny that Deborah Adair started two amazing roles - Jill on Y&R, and Kate on Days, and is by far the better actress in the roles and since she left borh roles had become over the top and camp. I would love to see KMK in the role of Dru. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Chris B Posted November 19, 2007 Members Share Posted November 19, 2007 Deborah Adair was the third Jill, she replaced Brenda Dickson and Bond Gideon. Jess Walton came next, toned the role down and gave Jill layers. Nobody can touch Walton in this role, IMO. BTW, I would also disagree that KKL is horrible. You should see her work during her current storyline, losing her kids and being raped. She's a major contender at the Emmys next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JW is great - but DA's Jill was amazing. I do watch her everyday on BB and have for years - shes bad. i wouldnt doubt an emmy tho... look at who has won them recently. people like NL from GH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Wales2004 Posted November 19, 2007 Members Share Posted November 19, 2007 I don't know his name but I think the first name is Robert. Maybe Montana or Montalvo. Anyway he subbed as Antonio on OLTL while KDLR was out recuperating. He was the perfect replacement except the face. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Chris B Posted November 19, 2007 Members Share Posted November 19, 2007 Do you have episodes with Deborah Adair as Jill, or have you seen her on youtube, or were you watching when she was on (1980-1983)? I ask because I've never heard anyone rave about her version of Jill. I've read that she was the "pretty Jill" but that's it. I can't see her coming close to Walton or even Dickson. I'd love to see her and Bond Gideon in the role. They're the only two I haven't seen as Jill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members stenbeck212 Posted November 19, 2007 Members Share Posted November 19, 2007 Earlier this year I caught Robert Montano as Antonio on OLTL, and found him to be better than Kamar De Los Reyes. Sexier too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members LoyaltoAMC Posted November 19, 2007 Members Share Posted November 19, 2007 Well respected director and former actor Don Scardino subbed for Larry Lau as "Greg Nelson" on AMC in the mid-80s when Larry had to take time off after his father had passed away. Going way back, Diana Walker subbed for Nancy Barrett as "Carolyn Stoddard" for one day on Dark Shadows when Barrett was too ill to work. Didn't Christine Jones also sub for Jane Eliot on "GH" a few years back? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BD was good, but i didnt love her. and JW is great and a powerul and amazing actress. But DA's Jill came off much more like a real person, not so over the top and annoying. Im not b ashing JW at all - sorry if it comes off that way, i do love her. I just think DA's Jill was better, tho it could also be that the writing with her in the role was better., because JW has had great moments scenes and storylines.
