Members chrisml Posted October 24, 2019 Members Share Posted October 24, 2019 Carmen Duncan is the only Iris I know so she is Iris to me. Duncan's work during The Chief/Mac's Death storylines was Emmy worthy. She was magnificent. When I see Beverlee McKinsey as Iris, she comes across as over the top because I'm used to Duncan. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members teplin Posted October 24, 2019 Members Share Posted October 24, 2019 Interesting -- I think Carmen went "over the top" far more often than Beverlee did. Beverlee was ice and Carmen was fire. I never bought Carmen as Iris, but I did come to like what I saw as a completely different character. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Contessa Donatella Posted October 24, 2019 Members Share Posted October 24, 2019 I am a big fan of both of them. Beverlee was a complete package. Carmen was the Chief! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members rlj Posted October 24, 2019 Members Share Posted October 24, 2019 Watching clips from 81 Liking this Alice, she's got spunk WOW, I presume Cecile is making it seem like Jamie hit her? Mac (with the Joker hairstyle) is basically blackmailing Rachel Joey, Rick, Jerry, Mitch, and Jamie are HOT imo 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members denzo30 Posted October 24, 2019 Members Share Posted October 24, 2019 I think us, who knew and loved Beverlee's Iris just see Carmen Duncan as just different and not really Iris. I do like Carmen Duncan very much and she did a great job portraying Iris but in a different way. Even when she appeared in 1988 and I thought maybe someone else should have been casted for the role, I still thought she was great. I always say, dont blame the actor, blame the soap. They are responsible for turning someone into a completely different person when they recast. Rachel and Iris would have never gotten even rometely along if it was Bev's Iris. I believe at one time there was talk of Pammy Davis (Rachel's sister) returning. Technically she was on Somerset and not AW (spin off soap). I could be wrong. I don't recall if there was any real interaction between Rachel and her sister Pammy who was not Ada's daughter. Someone wrote that even a soap magazine wrote they were casting for the role but obvisoulsy it never happened.. They should have had Rachel's father return to town. When Connie Ford passed away, I think Jordan Charney should have returned as her brother, Sam Lucas. He was best known as Mr Angelino on Three's Company in the late 70's after he left AW around 1975. At least for the funeral anyway but AW had lost all is real family connections at this point and probably know one even knew about these characters.. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Khan Posted October 24, 2019 Members Share Posted October 24, 2019 IA. Sam could have returned for Ada's funeral -- Lahoma, too! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Paul Raven Posted October 25, 2019 Author Members Share Posted October 25, 2019 Sam and Lahoma had a daughter. I envisaged a widowed Sam returning and leaving her with Ada while he went to work in Saudi arabia or some other far flung place leaving Ada to be surrogate mom to this girl. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members amybrickwallace Posted October 25, 2019 Members Share Posted October 25, 2019 Susannah. Was she born on AW or Somerset? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members slick jones Posted October 25, 2019 Members Share Posted October 25, 2019 I've been trying to find a child actress that played Susannah forever. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Contessa Donatella Posted October 25, 2019 Members Share Posted October 25, 2019 Christopher Schemering's Soap Encyclopedia indicates Sam's law partner Ben Grant who was married to Ellen. They had two children, teens, Jill and David. Are they these people? These people are listed in Somerset. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members AbcNbc247 Posted October 25, 2019 Members Share Posted October 25, 2019 (edited) He didn't get the part. Brian Green AKA Singing Sam did. As for Mitch Longley, he came in September 1991 She was born on Somerset. When their marriage crumbled, (I think Sam had an affair) Lahoma took her and left. Sam then went back to Bay City but eventually found them and left to go be with them. Edited October 25, 2019 by AbcNbc247 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Contessa Donatella Posted October 25, 2019 Members Share Posted October 25, 2019 (edited) He was good as an attorney & he was involved in Caroline's art gallery & he played tennis. Did he have a romance? After AW he was on that prime time show Providence with Melina and with Tyne Daley as a Social Worker.
