Members robbwolff Posted April 11, 2015 Members Share Posted April 11, 2015 Maeve was close to Joel in age, much more so than he and Jayne. Maeve was only a few years older than Joel while Joel was 14 years older than Jayne. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members robbwolff Posted April 11, 2015 Members Share Posted April 11, 2015 (edited) Karen Lynn Gorney was quoted in a 1981 issue of People that she was interested in the role of Nicole after Jayne Bentzen departed. It was right around the time of Edge's 25th anniversary party and I believe Gorney was in attendance at the party. This is the article. It was accompanied by photos of the cast and there was photo of Gorney with a caption saying she wanted the role of Nicole. http://www.people.com/people/archive/article/0,,20079086,00.html Edited April 11, 2015 by robbwolff 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members danfling Posted April 11, 2015 Members Share Posted April 11, 2015 This was AFTER the success of Saturday Night Fever, the film in which Ms. Gorney had appeared. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members saynotoursoap Posted April 11, 2015 Members Share Posted April 11, 2015 I know that Erwin Nicholson was very interested in Donna Wandrey. She was just turning 30 at the time, but ABC wanted a younger actress! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted April 11, 2015 Members Share Posted April 11, 2015 I always thought she was a little bland on DS, although I did like her as the vampire Roxanne, and she was very beautiful. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members amybrickwallace Posted April 12, 2015 Members Share Posted April 12, 2015 Wow, I never knew Karen Gorney was interested in joining EON. You learn something new every day!! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members LoyaltoAMC Posted April 12, 2015 Members Share Posted April 12, 2015 If Gorney was looking to get back into soaps, why EON? Sure, it was a great show, but you'd think after her SNL success and earlier soap recognition, she would've gone for a higher profile, higher rated show. Wonder if she tried to get back onto AMC? The show was shifting focus at that point and Tara just wasn't needed, and I'm pretty sure Mary Lynn Blanks was gone and the Tara character totally retired by the time EON was replacing Bentzen. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members saynotoursoap Posted April 12, 2015 Members Share Posted April 12, 2015 Nicholson had a fetish for redheads (Fisher, Moore, Cross). Ironically, a couple of years later, Wandrey did appear a younger recast of Laurinda Barrett's Dr. Allison Perry. If Edge wanted to raid Dark Shadows, I would have first considered Marie Wallace or Virginia Vestoff, but they were even older than Wandrey -a no-go with demo conscious ABC. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DRW50 Posted April 19, 2015 Members Share Posted April 19, 2015 Someone in the comments section for this wanted to know who the woman is and said she played Barbara Montgomery. Do you know who she is? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members slick jones Posted April 19, 2015 Members Share Posted April 19, 2015 The actress that played Barbara Montgomery was Susan Bigelowe. And that's definitely her. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
