You're welcome! She does looked gorgeous in them, but I always thought she looked fantastic on Another World. I loved Lila and Lila/Cass as well and hate that she didn't come on till towards the end of the show. I think she was a real shot in the arm for that show and one of the best things about those last few years.

Plus, I still think (even after watching her as Ava on Loving for all those years) that Lila was when she was at her best.

I've seen a lot more of her as Lila than as Ava but I enjoyed both. I do think Cass/Lila were a great match. I wish we'd gotten a little more of her but then considering what AW was in 1996, with women there for the slaughter, maybe it's for the best she didn't arrive until a little later.

I agree. Lila was THE role for Peluso. And while I got used to her on Loving, I still always felt that Roya Megnot defined the part and got the true essence of Ava better than Peluso.

Plus, LOVED her as Wendy Wilkins on SFT.

Peluso is a gem that is sorely missed. Wish they'd bring her over to DAYS or Y&R.

I concur with Carl. Upload, upload, upload!

I loved Lisa Peluso as Lila myself. She was a fave of mine at the end.

I do wish the show were given at least another year because her rivalry with Vicky could have been huge and fun. Also, with Alice Barrett returning and the set-up for a Lila/Cass/Anne (Frankie) triangle I was starting to get really excited again about the show.

Thank you CarlD for the articles. Gloria DeHaven looks so different in the photos than she did on Ryan's Hope. Granted it was nearly 20 years later, but it is hard for me to reconcile the woman in the photo with Jill's trailer park mother. Your articles are always so fascinating and so welcomed.

      Is this someone you should be dealing with? I got the drama on lock. Leave it to me. You are my sister. You have loved & protected me every moment I've been in this world. It's my turn to stand up for you.

    • I just watched it, it was decent, looking forward to Martin's secret. Glad to get info on why the children were aged up!
    • !!! I felt the same. Martin secret has always been my favorite storyline.  I happen to Andre's wardrobe but it ages him. They have a grandpa vibe.

      , Facts! I would like to see something like that in Daytime. Both of y'all can back up off my husband! Tomas couldn't shine his shoes.
    • Brandy was an odd mish-mash of a character. A radical during her college days, then a journalist/romance writer, I believe? But not so much of a radical that she had a problem chasing millionaire Alan, LOL. The actress, JoBeth Williams, went on to have a pretty good movie and prime time career.

      Thought I’d share this video featuring Cathy Carricaburu, now Foxhoven, who played Nancy Becker from 1976-1978.

      She talks a little about her acting career starting around the 6 minute mark and briefly mentions Y&R. I’d be interesting to see some of her work on Y&R since it seems to be her most notable role.
    • I believe Henry Slesar intended that the Paige/Nola plot would play out over three to six months and Paige would be the new younger ingenue; but a few things happened. Sharon Gabet didn't renew her contract and the audience didn't like the Paige/Brian romance as it flirted with incest. Kim Hunter revealed in an interview that she as slated for 3 months but Henry asked her to stay on for an additional period. I watched Edge during this period when it originally aired and Margaret Colin was not great in the role. She seemed very green among the vets as was the dude playing Brian. He was poorly cast which was unusual for Edge.  I think Henry started to get pressure from ABC and P&G to jazz up the show given what was exploding under Monty on GH at the time. I loved Kim as Nola and all the stories it generated for others. Miles and Deborah in particular. But the next who dunnit plot in this period was not one of Henry's best (at least for me the culprit and explanation were lame for Henry). 
    • Bill and the performer are the strongest male character and actor on this show.  Yeah, how I see it too. you pair your best young female with one of the weakest screams sabotage to me.  I like this idea, it doesn't make things too predictable. I would buy that!
