Members aMLCproduction Posted June 10, 2009 Members Share Posted June 10, 2009 SO what does this mean and what is the importance of this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cat Posted June 10, 2009 Members Share Posted June 10, 2009 quel surprise. I thought Andrea Evans played Patty Williams back in the day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members sheilaforever Posted June 10, 2009 Members Share Posted June 10, 2009 She did, but not for too long. Didn't she just go to LA to flee her stalker in the first place and her stint on Y&R ended after a good year!? Evans was also not the first Patty, on WOST there used be an episode with Lilibet Stern (?)... That said; I've never seen any of the early Patty Williams years.

Members alphanguy74 Posted June 10, 2009 Members Share Posted June 10, 2009 Cat... Andrea Evans played her for two years. Lilibet Stern played her for 4. I don't know why they hired a new actress to play a "flashback"? They could have just used the actual flashback footage of Stern, it CERTAINLY would have been cheaper! They wouldn't be able to use any Jack footage, with the whole Terry Lester thing, but they could have found some footage of Stern and Doug Davidson, or Carolyn Conwell at the very least.

Members Chris B Posted June 10, 2009 Members Share Posted June 10, 2009 I imagine if they're showing Patty flashbacks they must involve her past with Jack. Does that mean we'll be seeing young versions of Jack and possibly Mary and Paul? If Terry Lester wasn't playing Jack they could've just shown flashbacks with Andrea Evans. I say her, because I believe she was playing Patty when she shot Jack. They'd probably want to highlight that note. Still, on a soap like this, I hated recreated flashbacks. You know they won't even attempt to capture the time period. Now that we know she's Patty, I hope they establish what happened in her life to cause this hatred for Jack. I have her exit on DVD and Patty and Jack made up before she left. She was over him. What changed so many years later? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My guess is that we might see Patty after she has left Genoa City...begin to fill in the blanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members cara mia Posted June 10, 2009 Members Share Posted June 10, 2009 I love that Mary Jane is Patty. Who was the first person to guess this? Cashton or MarkH or someone else? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Sylph Posted June 10, 2009 Members Share Posted June 10, 2009 Well, the competition is... Tough. I mean, every day we have like fifty new possible storylines written for us in as much detail as possible in weekly threads, it's just hard to remember who said what. :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She's crazy because this moves the story forward. I hope they aren't keeping her around only to be unhinged, or to make Phyllis look less unhinged. The character can be far more to Y&R than a foil to Sharon and Phyllis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members MarkH Posted June 10, 2009 Members Share Posted June 10, 2009 Well, the canvas is over-stuffed. But between Haiduk's skills, the tragic backstory, and the "insanity defense", Mary Jane has more potential than many. Plus, we clearly have a writing team that likes writing for these baddies. That, alone, will be an incentive to extend her life on the show. But who knows? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members You're Soaking in it Posted June 10, 2009 Members Share Posted June 10, 2009 I recall that Evans succeeded Stern as Patty pretty quickly (if not just plain immediately), so she was an extension of those early years. This was during a three year break from OLTL in the early 80's, and several years before the stalker issue came about - which I think was around 1989. Evans left OLTL again in early 1990, replaced a few months later by Karen Witter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members lovely_m Posted June 11, 2009 Author Members Share Posted June 11, 2009 If this show didn't have budget issues I would suggest bringing on Diane Jenkins. I would make sense that Patty would hate her since she was the one Jack was having an affair with when she lost her baby. Maybe they could even bring in Kyle. I'm sick of seeing Jack raise Newmans and not his own children. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
