Members dc11786 Posted May 2, 2012 Members Share Posted May 2, 2012 This past weekend, I caught Priscilla Pointer in "A Nightmare on Elm Street-- Part 3." It hadn't dawned on me who Priscilla Pointer was. It would have been interesting to see her in the role of Adrienne. I hadn't realized Pointer was married to Robert Symonds, who played Will Watts on "Where the Heart Is." I find it a little amusing that Pointer played a psychiatrist while Symonds played a psychiatric patient. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted May 2, 2012 Members Share Posted May 2, 2012 I always associate Pointer with her role on Knots Landing as the woman who stalked Ginger because Ginger had aborted her son's child. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members edgeofnight Posted May 2, 2012 Members Share Posted May 2, 2012 (edited) What a beautifully written synopsis, CarlD2. It made for a delightful read while I am recuperating from my latest surgery. Where would we all be without your insight?

Members danfling Posted May 24, 2012 Members Share Posted May 24, 2012 I was going to add that Pricilla Pointer was the mother of Amy Irving, but someone did it before I did. I will add, though, that Amy was the first wife of producer Steven Speilberg, whose second wife is Kate Capshaw (Jinx Mallory #1 on The Edge of Night). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted May 24, 2012 Members Share Posted May 24, 2012 Priscilla was a very good actress. If you haven't seen it, watch the Knots Landing episode where she played the unbalanced mother of Ginger's first love. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members danfling Posted September 26, 2012 Members Share Posted September 26, 2012 It was asked how old Margaret DePriest is. I am not certain of her age, but she was an actress on The Edge of Night in 1964 - nearly forty years ago. She did not seem to be a spring chicken then. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members teplin Posted October 30, 2012 Members Share Posted October 30, 2012 I remember Tracy Brooks Swope as a love interest for Jaimie Frame on AW in the early 80s. I had first seen her in episodes of Starsky & Hutch and Baretta, and I was somewhat jazzed that a "prime-time actress" was doing a soap. Unfortunately, her character was a crashing bore and didn't last long. Honestly, she didn't impress me much -- but the show was in such a funk at that point that it may not have been her fault. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
