Members amybrickwallace Posted May 19, 2020 Members Share Posted May 19, 2020 I think she was 30 or so by then. Andrea Evans was also over 30 when nominated in the Ingenue category in 1988. I don't know when 25 was made the age limit for the Younger categories, but it was the right call. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members AMCer Posted May 19, 2020 Members Share Posted May 19, 2020 Martha Byrne was nominated in that category for almost a decade. She must've had the longest run as an "Ingenue" in daytime history. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members denzo30 Posted May 19, 2020 Members Share Posted May 19, 2020 What about Nancy Wickwires run playing the role of Liz? I have never seen any footage of her on AW. Was she as vicious as Audra or more like Liz or something in between? I would love to see some footage of her portrayal of Liz Matthews. It seems when we think of Liz, we think of Audra and Irene in the role and mostly because they both played the roles the longest but Nancy did play the role I think for over 2 years.. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Mona Kane Croft Posted May 20, 2020 Members Share Posted May 20, 2020 (edited) I didn't see Wickwire in the role, but I don't think there was much for Liz to do during that period. Trying to wreck Bill and Missy's romance had been Liz's major storyline for years, but by the time Wickwire arrived, Bill and Missy had married and moved out of town. During Wickwire's time at AW, Missy returned (Bill had died off-screen) for a couple of months before her spin-off to Somerset. And Liz had some sort of romance with the same man her daughter, Susan, was involved with. Then Susan married another guy, Dan Shearer, and left town. From what I've read, it seemed maybe Liz had mellowed a bit, but it may have just seemed that way because they didn't write a major conflict for her. At least Liz still had her big house, during that period. When Irene Daily was on the show, Liz always lived in apartments, and then eventually moved into Jim and Mary's old house -- which was out of character.

Members will81 Posted May 21, 2020 Members Share Posted May 21, 2020 I found this archive for Bill Bell's script collection. Lists Another World with script numbers and air dates. As well as other shows he worked on http://pdf.oac.cdlib.org/pdf/ucla/pasc/wjbell.pdf 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members EricMontreal22 Posted May 21, 2020 Members Share Posted May 21, 2020 (edited) Awesome! I knew that Bell helped create AW, but didn't realize until recently that originally it was credited on the show as being co-created by him. I always wonder why he never became HW when it was having trouble, instead going to DAYS and Nixon went to AW. And woah--why in that collection is there one for All My Children that says "Series Idea"??? Edited May 21, 2020 by EricMontreal22 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members will81 Posted May 21, 2020 Members Share Posted May 21, 2020 Yeah I was surprised by this too. Maybe Agnes and Bell worked on ideas for the show originally. Maybe before she did OLTL. I know he and Irna also helped a bit with Days as well. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members BetterForgotten Posted May 21, 2020 Members Share Posted May 21, 2020 Didn’t Agnes originally create her AMC bible for P&G? Who knows how many hands were in the pot back then, or it could be lazy error.. Bell had worked with Ted Corday at ATWT, and his wife Betty was familiar with him. I am guessing Betty made him an offer at DAYS and he took it. Bell spoke a little about leaving Irna in this clip and how he thought she never really forgave him for it. Bell was very much her right hand man in many aspects during the first decade or so of ATWT. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members will81 Posted May 21, 2020 Members Share Posted May 21, 2020 Yeah could be error, or he may have just had a few notes and not much else. Agnes may have asked his advice and it was nothing more than a few dot points 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Paul Raven Posted May 21, 2020 Author Members Share Posted May 21, 2020 Interestingly, the Bill Bell Archive lists scripts from AW in 1967, way after his departure in 65. He was involved with Days by then. Wonder what the story was? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Paul Raven Posted May 23, 2020 Author Members Share Posted May 23, 2020 Yes in 65 AMC was a strong contender for CBS 10am slot but they decided otherwise. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
