Members Khan Posted May 6, 2009 Members Share Posted May 6, 2009 That reminds me of "Mort" and "Bob", two junior-level execs at the Sumner Group, on KNOTS LANDING. Mort and Bob always would be there, interacting with several members of the regular cast, providing comic relief and a sort of "voice" for the audience. (Mort, if I'm not mistaken, was played by Mort Haining, who played Norman, Esther's husband and Rex's killer, on Y&R.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members dm. Posted May 6, 2009 Members Share Posted May 6, 2009 I seriously can't see the resemblance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members YRBB Posted May 6, 2009 Author Members Share Posted May 6, 2009 Yes, that's the idea. Not necessarily the comic relief, but to at least lend some credibility and believability to the companies of the show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members rhythmchyc Posted May 6, 2009 Members Share Posted May 6, 2009 OMG, DeeeDee! First Pippin and Khalil. Now Heinle and Levy? That should've been Kevin and Devon. Oh wells. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members YRBB Posted May 6, 2009 Author Members Share Posted May 6, 2009 Oh, absolutely not! Kevin and Devon were at the very bottom of the chain, and they were/are contract characters. I'm talking about Newman professionals in the late 20s/early 30s range, heads of Marketing/Research/Legal etc whose purpose is to show the business interaction with the main characters, no outside of the company stories for them... Just supporting characters, who can have their own personalities, but really only just that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Khan Posted May 6, 2009 Members Share Posted May 6, 2009 Sorry, DeeeDee, but I can't see the resemblance. But I do see a vague resemblance between Jeanne Cooper and "Madame". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
