Here's where I found the info on the Amy/Bruce/Steve situation - the article called "Liza and Her Loves":

Speaking of Liza, last night Angela Cartwright posted a picture of herself and Kathleen Beller (my favorite Liza) at the "Lost in Space" 50th anniversary reunion.

Thanks jam for the pic. At first glance I thought Kathleen Beller was Mary Page Keller (AW's Sally). I didn't know Beller played Liza. I remember Meg Bennett, Sherry Mathis & Louann Gideon. Was she before Bennett?

Yes.

I have an article in one of those old magazines somewhere where she advises on diets or something.

I guess it worked well for her...

There definitely is a resemblance (and rhyming last names, lol). Kathleen was Liza for several years in the early 70s and Meg Bennet replaced her. She was just a teen when she played the role. I believe Kathleen had replaced Denice Nickerson in the role.

Also, check out the Dynasty thread as Kathy Beller took part in the latest cast reunion. There's a big cast photo posted there.

WOW! Watching an October 1983 episode of SEARCH that I'd missed and THERE'S ESTELLE! In a 1953 flashback with Martin! PLAYED BY LINDA COOK! Laurie Karr herself! I don't recall if anyone has ever noted that Linda was on SEARCH, and this is a year before she'd return for EDGE OF NIGHT's final episodes, and years before she went back to daytime full time as Egypt on LOVING.

With all the talk that Estelle gets in 1983 (she's divorcing Lloyd, she's too busy with business to attend either of her sons' weddings, she has a past connection to Martin), it boggles me that she doesn't show up for two years, after the majority of her family has left Henderson.

Nice catch. I wondered if Cook had ever been on SFT, as she was on P&G shows (especially ATWT in multiple roles) and EoN. Thanks for posting that tidbit!

I haven't seen much of the stories at this time so I didn't even know the stuff with Lee and Sunny and Cissy was still going on during the early NBC episodes.

Sweet - thanks!

How cool! Was she still referred to as Aileen? Or Estelle? Did she have a British accent? Who played Martin?

Antmunoz, can you tell me anything about Nelson Aspen's SFT character?

Was Nelson on STF? I think he was just interning there, wasn't he?

According to several sources, he played Albert Prange on the show. I don't know how he fit in on the canvas.

Linda played Estelle. No British accent. Estelle had been referred to by name previously, but she originated as "Aileen."

Lloyd is inconsistent though. Upon introduction, he's been married and divorced several times. He's later in the process of divorcing Estelle and tells Stephanie that he's only been down the aisle once, unlike her.

John Aniston was Martin. He looked the same, 30 years earlier! LOL

Nelson's first scene was with Jennifer Gatti's Angela but he doesn't recur much.
