Wow. Was his name Blade? Slash? Now I'm confused.

And Dixie Carter - before that she was on EON, briefly.

You mean Jason?

He had long blond hair - but that was Robin, not Elaine.

Now I'm really confused. I'm sure Elaine's Dorian had a younger beefy blond guy. I distinctly remember seeing her on his back as he ran around her house.

According to the interview with RS that Y&RWorldTurner posted, it was Elaine. But when Robin came back, Dorian and he were still together(although I don't remember this).

YES Jason! and that would make sense if both actresses were with him. I'm thinkign I think of him and Elaine P on a motorcycle together

Well that was my prob Maybe I can scan the pic if I find it

Kinda funny how, much like people describe her acting, her look does seem like a lesser more distinctive Robin Strasser!

For witticisms and unfiltered soap memories I invite you all to come visit me at my site:

Yeah I still don't remember her as Dorian. I had always thought that was Robin.

Aww man:

I think it was capacity. Sorry to the webmaster for flooding your site with new guests and crashing your site.

The last person is Ellen, who, from that angle, looks more like a cousin than the twin she does in the OLTL opening.

Also I know early in Malone's first run at OLTL we had yet another Dorian but I don't remember anything about her even though I watched! Very odd--does anyone know if there are youtube clips?

Elaine Princi was Dorian during the character's involvement with Jason Webb, a long-haired illiterate type. She was sexy and spunky and a very capable actress, but they never really did too much with Dorian during her tenure. She was definitely SUPPORTING in the worst sense of the word. I think they had good intentions, but possibly they were always hoping to get La Strasser back. At any rate, I enjoyed Elaine; she was the first Dorian I knew (I started watching in 1988, shortly after Strasser left). When Robin returned to the role with red hair, some commented that she looked less like 1980s Dorian than Elaine had Even after Strasser's much-ballyhooed return, Dorian STILL remained supporting for a few months, but then stepped into lead territory when the character convinced Emily Haines to accuse Viki's Sloan Carpenter of sexual harrassment, and from then on out, Robin was back full-throttle. Malone's Joey-Dorian remains one of my favorite soap couples ever.

I wish there were people on this board who watched back in the 1970s and could give a little feedback on Claire Malis.

ETA: Elaine Princi's other big storyline as Dorian was during the arrival of Blair (first played by Asian actress Mia Korff) back in 1991. Blair came to town seeking revenge on her aunt, because she was convinced that Dorian had tortured Addie as a child. We soon learned, however, that Addie was the one who abused Dorian, and Blair and Dorian eventually became close. Again, Elaine was terrific with this material, but it wasn't exactly a LEAD story ... more so for Blair, to introduce her to the canvass.
