Members Contessa Donatella Posted July 13, 2023 Members Share Posted July 13, 2023 Are Susan Keith & James Kiberd still married? Seeing them both on the list, it made wonder. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Efulton Posted July 13, 2023 Members Share Posted July 13, 2023 I think it is safe to assume the only reason James will be in attendance is because Susan will be there. I can't imagine any Another World fans are going to this so they can see the guy who played Dustin Trent for 2 months. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted July 13, 2023 Members Share Posted July 13, 2023 @vetsoapfan tagging you as Janice Lynde is attending this AW 60th event. Such a drab character she had to play, but I'm glad she is still involved. I wish much more of Barbara Rodell's time on the show was available. It's forever a shame what was lost. Susan Keith was so wonderful as Cecile that it's hard at times to even see Nancy's take as the same character, although Nancy was a wonderful comedienne. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Sapounopera Posted July 13, 2023 Members Share Posted July 13, 2023 I have the same thoughts about Linda Gibboney and Robin Mattson on Santa Barbara. I love watching Susan Keith as Cecile in old episodes. The Cory Complex was such a sophisticated set before every single soap decided they wanted to be GH and Cecile became an 80s cliche under (the wonderful) Nancy Frangione. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted July 13, 2023 Members Share Posted July 13, 2023 That's very well said. I hadn't thought about the Gina comparison, but I see it. I guess that type of nuanced work was just not going to happen as the '80s went along. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members slick jones Posted July 13, 2023 Members Share Posted July 13, 2023 Janice has a fantastic sense of humor. It's a shame that no show has snatched her up and used her. So much more vibrant than the Tracy character. I wish I could see more of Susan Keith as Cecile. What little I have seen has been fantastic, but Nancy is the Cecile I grew up with. Different takes, but each of them fit the character well with where the show was at the time. (Until Cecile became .... <coughs>) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members vetsoapfan Posted July 13, 2023 Members Share Posted July 13, 2023 Thank you, @DRW50. Yes, I had heard Janice Lynde was set to appear at the AW event. Sadly, both her roles on AW and OLTL were drab and unsuccessful, IMHO, but I blame inept PTB at the time. Given strong material, Lynde can be dynamite (as her reign on Y&R proved so well). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members denzo30 Posted July 14, 2023 Members Share Posted July 14, 2023 (edited) Nancy really was Cecile. No offense to Susan. Its almost like Rachel's Robin vs Victoria. Same character different producer writer reinventing the same person. I thought Janice Lynde was great. Especially in 1980 the ratings and show tanked bad within one year and bringing someone other than acting talent like singing was a desperate and hopeful idea. She had a great voice and bought much character back to the show. Edited July 14, 2023 by denzo30 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Xanthe Posted July 14, 2023 Members Share Posted July 14, 2023 I have conflated Dustin Trent and Drew Marston in my mind for years now and I have been somewhat surprised to discover that they are actually two distinct people. I guess Drew Marston was mostly during the strike -- if I recall correctly he had faked his death in order to incriminate Mac and there was a whole lot of fuss about whether Mac would be charged given that there was no corpse. Was that part of Iris' plan? Dustin seems not to have been working with Iris and had his own agenda where somehow fortuitously he met Amanda through a prostitution ring pretending to be a video dating service and she turned out to be a double of his wife Julia that Evan had had an affair with. What are the odds! (No greater I suppose than that of the resemblance between Rachel, whom Carl had been obsessed with since at least 1985, and Justine, whom Carl had had an affair with at least 15 years before that based on Ryan's age.) But it was Drew, wasn't it, and not Dustin, who managed to get a picture that looked like he and Amanda were having an affair and that was published in the newspaper in order to humiliate Amanda as part of Iris' plan? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
