We are so used to seeing just about every woman on TV having had some sort of work done, as well as being touched up/using filters for photos that seeing someone like Marcy look like the lady at the supermarket is a surprise, especially when they have been out of the public eye for years. and we have an image of them in our minds.

Having said that I don't think the scraggly blond locks are the most flattering do.

I didn't recognize Kristen Meadows or Sherilyn Wolter at all.

I agree with @Paul Raven that Marcy would benefit from a shorter haircut but otherwise I think she looks nice. You can still recognize her and she seems very happy to be there. It's nice to see her enjoying herself and this is the moment the long-suffering Cruz and Eden fans deserve (yes I know they aren't their characters).

Can we talk about how great Judith McConnell looks? Get her on a soap!

Vincent also looks terrific. He's aged well. 

So nice to see Carrington Garland there.

Surprised at how many showed up, especially those whose characters were not handled all that well, i.e. Scott Clark and Heather Donnelly.

But it is still great that Vicent Irizarry, Jane Rogers, and so many other actors did show! Maybe it was nice enough behind the scenes that the fonder memories remained.

Thrilled to see so many favorites there, i.e. Carrington Garland. And Judith McConnell looks fabulous!

ETA: Gordon Thomson obviously looks different with the white/silvery hair, but I do think he looks good. I'm not surprised he attended. When on the air, he often raved about the writing and seemed to truly enjoy playing Mason Capwell.

Personally seeing Marcy there just made me so emotional

....she looked gorgeous and ageing gracefully out of the public eye. Her being healthy and smiling after all that she has gone through in the recent past was everything...

Also yes...I know they are not that their characters, but the way the writers botched up their story line in the end to phase Marcy out, it was actually nice to see them chatting away to glory after all these years. 

Loved all the pictures and videos from the event , hope there is a feed somewhere of the entire meet up, would actually pay to watch it.

Amen.. She really seemed so happy to see not just A but everyone...Finally after all those attempts A made to reconnect with her.

Looking back at the photos from the previous page I just saw that Harley Jane Kozak was there too. Richard Eden. So many people. 

Now if only a producer could take the opportunity to use some of this talent while they still can.

Wow!! It is so nice to see these photos!! 

I did not recognize so many of them. Some of these people I last saw when they were on SB, so many years ago, so I remember them solely by how they looked while on the show. 

I am so happy to see Marcy there! I have seen some interviews with A where he mentioned not being in contact and her just staying away from the business. So it is so nice to see her there with him and others. It would have been so nice to be at this event. So many memories!!

Same, but I understand why she cut everyone out. And while I may not agree with it, I support her in her decision.

SAME! Her brief stint on The Bay made me realize I need to see her back in daytime. I'm also [not shocked] she is the only Kelly Capwell to show up.

I always envisioned her for a Beth Logan recast; Marla Adams was such a miscast, but had Bradley Bell snagged Judith McConnell at the end of Santa Barbara, I do think it would've been a smash hit in casting.

If I'm not mistaken, Carrington Garland was a soap name thrown around for Y&R Phyllis recast in 1997. Other than that I can't think of any other soap roles she might have been considered for.

Robin Wright has been speaking negatively about her time on Santa Barbara for the better part of the last 30 or so years and I'm sure Eileen Davidson knows that Santa Barbara fans do not hold her run in high regard so no surprise they were absent.

I do wonder if Eileen has any positive memories of her time there - maybe she just associates herself with Y&R.

I think Carrington may have auditioned for Mindy Lewis at one point, but I might be mixing her up.
