Members juniorz1 Posted June 27, 2011 Members Share Posted June 27, 2011 (edited) Actually, IMO, Carlson was the only improvement. Stenovitch, who looked just like Carlson, seemed to just try to imitate Amy's version of the character and didn't do it very well. I thought Carlson was quite terrific in the role. In fact, she was nominated for a Daytime Emmy for her last year on the show. I enjoyed the Gary/Josie romance but only with the original portrayers in the parts. Either way, IMO, Wilson was AWFUL, Carlson was VERY GOOD, and Stenovitch was adequate. ETA: Oh, and while I thought the quad with Cameron & Amanda WAS rather pointless, I really liked the Cameron character. He was so masculine and brooding, kinda like the new Mitch Blake. He was something that was missing on AW at the time and I really enjoyed him, his portrayer, and his romance with Amanda.

Members DRW50 Posted June 28, 2011 Members Share Posted June 28, 2011 It was so nice to see Constance Ford there - I know Sandra's talked about Connie being an influence on her. It's nice to know she cared so much about the cast. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members denzo30 Posted July 1, 2011 Members Share Posted July 1, 2011 Lemay returned in fall of 1988 but butted heads with Swajeski. His entire theme was returning to the families. That is why Iris was reintroduced in Oct 88. It was less than a year for the shows anniversary special and I think Michael Liabson (exec producer) bought him back into the show since he was already bringing back the Frames.. Sharlene, her daughter Josie and the intro of Jason Frame and Janice Frames son Evan. Dont think the Evan thing was on Swajeskis agenda and she got the story from Harding Lemay. He did not last long due to conflicts with her but he is solely responsible for the original characters being re-introduced to the show. They say he was difficult but I really wish he stayed. I thought I heard too he came back as a consultant during the 90's. At that point, it was useless focusing on the Frame, Cory and Matthews family 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members denzo30 Posted July 1, 2011 Members Share Posted July 1, 2011 It drove me crazy they never mentioned Vince Frame. Emma Ordway Frame was mentioned hear and there. Finally, after watching some youtube stuff, Sharlene said to Evan (pointing at a picture) and there is your uncle VInny 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted July 1, 2011 Members Share Posted July 1, 2011 (edited) I think Lemay consulted at ATWT and AW during the mid-90's. I remember him complaining about ATWT having 3 mega-millionaires with 3 private jets (Cal, Damian, Lucinda). I saw his point, but then, he really helped popularize that in P&G soaps (ATWT and GL had had "mogul" characters, but they were always outsiders, like Stanley Norris or that guy Jerry Lacy played on ATWT; Mac Cory was the first mega millionaire mogul who became the heart of a P&G soap). What did you think of Vince? I've seen little of him. Just mostly supporting stuff, and his girlfriend, the waitress, when John Randolph died and Marianne was at the diner. I'm not sure how Lemay would have worked out in the late 80's AW long term but his 1988 material was damn good.

Members DRW50 Posted July 1, 2011 Members Share Posted July 1, 2011 That must have been one of the last photos Jacquie took in her first AW run (the one with Sally). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Paul Raven Posted July 1, 2011 Author Members Share Posted July 1, 2011 (edited) Did they hint at a Nancy/Jake/Marley triangle? Edited July 1, 2011 by Paul Raven 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted July 1, 2011 Members Share Posted July 1, 2011 I think so, yes. I think Nancy had a crush on Jake. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members thelma Posted July 4, 2011 Members Share Posted July 4, 2011 I hope I'm doing this right. I'm usually just a reader. A user on YouTube has started posting the Reginald Love, Marissa LaSalle/Mary McKinnon storyline from 1986. I love re-watching Denise Alexander act up a storm, but I'm amazed at how full of holes the plot was. <iframe width="425" height="349" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/dOh8RiadrwU" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
