Thanks. That's fascinating.

Keller/Beecher. I was a big fan of theirs about ten years ago. And then that great triangle with Brian Bloom which had so much potential.

Yes Carl, they were great. I own the whole series on DVD and love to watch it -- at least the whole series once every 3 months. The triangle with Brian Bloom should have lasted longer. They blew a big chance there.

Here is something I found that Steve posted over at SoapsWEB:

Victoria Wyndham is just one of my favorite actresses in the history of soap operas. I loved her on both GL and AW. I was one of the ones who felt no one could replace Robin Strasser as Rachel but Victoria Wyndham did a wonderful job and actually became my favorite Rachel. I love Robin but I don't think she could have played the transformation of Rachel as well as Vicky did.

Here are clips of her 25th Anniversary episode on Another World.

Victoria Wyndham's 25th Anniversary

PART I

PART II

Here is a scene from 1980 from my collection--with Victoria Wyndham (Rachel Cory) and William Gray Espy (Mitch Blake):

An AW trifecta:

Ah yes, this is Walter and Lenore's wedding where Rachel met Steve for the first time at the reception and bells started going off.

That clip with Mitch and Rachel was good, Espy was so gorgeous. That clip gets very intense near the end. I often wonder if one of the reasons AW lost viewers in that era was because they still had the characters in those long, deep psychological conversations, endlessly.

The weird thing with Alice and Rachel is that Robin Strasser was so delicate while Jacqui Courtney was kind of butch. I wonder if that helped make the triangle more of a success, the sort of role reversal in actresses.

Espy was so gorgeous.

I had a dream about Another World, lol. Maybe i should stop watching it right before bed?

I was at that bar, Sassys?, and Dennis came in. We played pool and then Marley showed up and we bounced out and went to Tops where Felicia/Lorna were having dinner and then we threw a party and hat annoying girl Kelsey wouldnt stop talking to me but i was looking for Ryan for some reason, lol.

I have dreams about GH sometime so don't feel bad. Of course your dream sounds like it is nice. My dreams about GH esp. in regards to Steve Burton are usually very naughty. LOL

Did Marley keep changing faces and heights?

No, sadly it was JB Marley. The worst part of the dream! lol.

Honestly, ive gotten use to her as both V & M, shes no AH but shes okay.

I just watched the recent upload of AW to Hulu and man...it was a bit of a chore to sit through. I didn't pay attention to the writer credits, but noticed that Casey Childs directed and I guessed him the moment I saw camera sweep from Paulina's date with the DA to Vicky/Ryan. It so seemed his style. I hate that he's reduced to being all about gimmick instead of conveying story these days(as evident in his AMC directing).

Also, I never quite understood the Jensen Buchanan hate...until I watched Anne Heche play Vicky on Another World. Jensen's Vicky was a completely different character altogether. It was almost like she was trying TOO hard to be Vicky, i.e. Laura Wright Syndrome. It's not difficult to see why they Marley-fied her over the next couple of years.

And Jesus, can we just skip to the JFP years already? The production values are just completely horrendous.

LOL, i am like three months behind on AW on Hulu, but i agree about the production. On one hand though, it matches NBC Daytime, lol.
