Another World

The ironic thing was that Rachel had started the path to being redeemed somewhat when Strasser was playing the part with her moving on and marrying Ted Clark.. and wishing Steve/Alice luck.  And even at the start of Wyndham playing Rachel, she was still married to Ted and sort of played the marriage aspect in her first few months in the role before he caught her with Steve and broke up with her.

I agree that Strasser's Rachel was flirty, charming, and had this anxious need to belong to the Haves.  My late mom said Wyndham was scary when she played Rachel and really showed the vicious side of Rachel with no cutesy flirting or batting her eye lashes.

Her Rachel was convincing as both an artist and also in a corporate setting.. something I don't think Strasser could have pulled off.

I started watching in 1987 and never really got into Rachel. She always seemed boring to me and hard to relate to. She was very affected; it was like she was putting on airs; her performances were not natural. I enjoyed the show despite her. I didn't know the history of the show back then.
