Members DRW50 Posted April 28, 2014 Members Share Posted April 28, 2014 Never seen that photo. She looks like a crazed kids' show host. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members amybrickwallace Posted April 28, 2014 Members Share Posted April 28, 2014 Yikes! Does anyone know what she is up to these days? I know she originated OLTL's Jenny Wolek, but it's hard to picture anyone else in the part but Brynn Thayer - which belongs on the best soap recast list. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members jam6242 Posted April 29, 2014 Members Share Posted April 29, 2014 This is an article from "The Baltimore Sun" about one of Maryland's gubernatorial candidates named Ron George. Apparently, he had a bit role on "The Doctors" in 1978. The part I found most interesting was this quote: "An NBC publicist scoffed at the idea that any footage might still exist from the 30-minute episodes in which George starred, but George said his main line involved saying, "Doctor, doctor," while lying in a hospital bed." Weren't there rumors that episodes of "The Doctors" were going to be aired somewhere? Or maybe that just pertained to 80s episodes. http://www.baltimoresun.com/news/maryland/politics/blog/bs-md-ron-young-soaps-20140426,0,2040830.story 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members amybrickwallace Posted April 29, 2014 Members Share Posted April 29, 2014 The Hallmark Channel has the rights to The Doctors episodes (have no idea what year the episodes start), but have sat on them for years. Boo hiss!!!! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members danfling Posted April 30, 2014 Members Share Posted April 30, 2014 Kathy Glass seemed to be a favorite of writer James Lipton and producer/writer/director Don Wallace. She began her daytime television career on ABC's The Best of Everything. That show may have been a production of Twentieth-Century Fox Television. After its cancellation (which came briefly after its premiere), the trio worked for Twentieth-Century Fox on Return to Peyton Place (which aired on NBC). She was later replaced (and I think that Mr. Lipton was too. I don't know about Mr. Wallace.) in the role of Allison. She then created the role of Jenny Woleck Siegel, R. N. on One Life to Live. Later, longtime producer for ABC Doris Quinlan (The Nurses, One Life to Live, All My Children) was replaced. She was hired by NBC to produce The Doctors, and she took Kathy Glass with her to The Doctors. Kathy Glass was on a commercial that ran for a long time. I seem to recall that it was for a brand of vitamins, but I may be wrong about the product. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Paul Raven Posted April 30, 2014 Members Share Posted April 30, 2014 Kathy Glass was already on The Doctors when Doris Quinlan arrived. Earlier she was granted a release from her Return to Peyton Place role. What were the circumstances of her leaving One Life to Live? It seems her 3 year contract was up,but did she leave or was she fired? Carla Dragoni had been playing MJ and she was replaced by Kathy Glass. Did they lure her away from ABC or did she become available after her departure from OLTL? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members amybrickwallace Posted April 30, 2014 Members Share Posted April 30, 2014 According to her wikipedia page (take it with a grain of salt), Katherine Glass left OLTL in 1978 just as it was expanding to an hour, and felt that The Doctors, at half an hour, would give her more time to spend with her husband and newly adopted baby. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DRW50 Posted May 6, 2014 Members Share Posted May 6, 2014 Yes she was. One of my favorite Dark Shadows presences, by far. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members amybrickwallace Posted May 7, 2014 Members Share Posted May 7, 2014 Did she fill in when Elizabeth Hubbard had her son in real life? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members danfling Posted May 8, 2014 Members Share Posted May 8, 2014 Elizabeth Hubbard departed from the show, and Virginia Vestoff was hired as the replacement. I think she was on for about six months. Then, the show hired Elizabeth Hubbard to reprise her role. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
