Members amybrickwallace Posted May 2, 2017 Members Share Posted May 2, 2017 Yes, because in the case of Liz Hubbard, it's the reverse. Because she was on ATWT for so long, we're used to seeing her as she looks now and it is somewhat jarring to see her younger self on TD. We didn't see as much of the other principals after TD was over for various reasons, so to see them in something from after TD can be a little strange. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members TimWil Posted May 3, 2017 Members Share Posted May 3, 2017 Ooooo, thanks for the heads-up! I will definitely watch Lisa Kincaid's return. Sorry for the delay responding to your two earlier questions: I think Adam might have been just finishing his gig on SFT when I became friends with Angela. We never really chatted much. To be honest I found him to be somewhat cold and snobby. He was a privileged Upper West Side NY kid and I suspect he thought his s##t didn't stink. Angela obviously adored both her children, though. She was a great mother and I feel terribly sorry for them now-they were both very, very close to her. As to Geri's feelings about James Pritchett I think she liked him fine. He was a thorough professional and a family man who was grateful to have a steady, relatively lucrative gig. One little detail I remember Geri telling me: Armand Assante had terrible body odor. Some of the cast actually walked up to Joe Stuart's office to complain. It took a while but Assante eventually took care of the problem. I remember when Geri got that Kate & Allie role-she was so excited to do it. She was really hoping to break out of soaps to do more primetime work but it just wasn't plentiful in NYC in those days. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members amybrickwallace Posted May 3, 2017 Members Share Posted May 3, 2017 Yes, Lisa is really upping the ante - actually confronting Althea directly about her husband's wandering eye. Miss Thornton brought a lot of dimension to the role of Dr. Morrison's mistress. Did you know that the actress who played Sam, the dippy redheaded desk nurse, went on to become Richard Dreyfuss' real-life first wife? Her name is Jeramie Rain, and still goes by Dreyfuss (they also have three grown children together). Long since retired from acting, she now lives on a large farm in Idaho with her many dogs. She has been very open and public about her battles with lupus and RA. I'm sorry Geri didn't get to do more primetime work, but as you said, there just weren't many primetime shows that were filmed on the East Coast. The only other ones I can think of besides K&A were The Cosby Show (which featured TD stars David O'Brien and Patrick Horgan in guest spots) and Spenser: For Hire (again, featuring David O'Brien in several episodes - it filmed in Boston, where Mr. O'Brien lived then). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SoapDope Posted May 3, 2017 Members Share Posted May 3, 2017 That's weird about Armand Assante having body odor, but being the 70's, a lot of people got into that weird hippy all natural thing where they didn't bathe, use deodorant etc... There are a lot of stars now days that are doing that crap. They claim Brad Pitt, Julia Roberts etc....have had complaints about their personal hygiene. John Travolta stated in an interview in recent years that he does not use deodorant. When Armand shows up soon, I will be thinking about how bad he probably smelled......LOL 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members amybrickwallace Posted May 3, 2017 Members Share Posted May 3, 2017 The last thing I saw Armand Assante in was an SVU episode from a couple of years ago where he played the father of Det. Nick Amaro (Danny Pino). When USA reran that episode not long ago, I thought of that story!!!

Members SoapDope Posted May 4, 2017 Members Share Posted May 4, 2017 LOL...I know what you mean. I saw him not too long ago in Little Darlings and I now wonder if Tatum O'Neil was holding her breath during their scenes. He was in the pool, so maybe that helped wash the stink off a bit. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members amybrickwallace Posted May 4, 2017 Members Share Posted May 4, 2017 Not to mention Private Benjamin...neither Goldie Hawn nor Eileen Brennan were shrinking violets. I imagine one or both of them telling him to clean up his act - LITERALLY!! Back to TD, we have rounded third and are heading home with Patrick Horgan's run as Dr. John Morrison. He was a casualty of then-brand new EP Joseph Stuart's reign. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SoapDope Posted May 4, 2017 Members Share Posted May 4, 2017 I think Ann and Nick are also about to come to and end, but I read they both come back around 1976. Nick short term and Ann becomes a psycho. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members amybrickwallace Posted May 4, 2017 Members Share Posted May 4, 2017 Yes. My feeling is that they never make it to the aisle. GG reprised Nick from March to July/August of 1976. GC remained on the show until sometime in 1977. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SoapDope Posted May 5, 2017 Members Share Posted May 5, 2017 It's amazing how Ann seems like a nice down to earth person at this point, but to later read that she becomes devious and stashes Carolee away in a mental ward. I know that Carolee Campbell left the show in late 75/early 76 and that storyline helps usher her character out till she is recast with Jada Rowland. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members amybrickwallace Posted May 5, 2017 Members Share Posted May 5, 2017 It's Nick to the rescue again today with an emergency surgery! The question is, will the patient's attitude be just as rotten after surgery or was it organic?

Members amybrickwallace Posted May 6, 2017 Members Share Posted May 6, 2017 I'm not sure if this has been posted elsewhere on this thread (and I'm still not awake enough to look), but here is Julia Duffy in a mouthwash commercial from 1977. That's the same year she left TD. Please register in order to view this content 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Paul Raven Posted May 26, 2017 Members Share Posted May 26, 2017 Gil Gerard is now appearing as Dr Alan Stewart (Nov 73) His first appearances were showing off his bod in a form fitting red swimsuit. He certainly upped the hunk factor on the show. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ~bl~ Posted May 26, 2017 Members Share Posted May 26, 2017 Until they hired him, there was no hunk factor on this show. I'm not joking or being mean, but it felt like they cast more for personality than the factor of taking off ones' shirt on screen. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Paul Raven Posted May 27, 2017 Members Share Posted May 27, 2017 Very true. There's speculation on other boards that this was a response to Y&R debuting earlier that year and showing a lot more skin and sexy scenes than previously on daytime. Well, we were treated to several scenes of Matt in a singlet and bare chested...Does that count?? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
