Members jam6242 Posted June 15, 2015 Members Share Posted June 15, 2015 Enjoyed the Jordan Clarke article. It really humanized him. I had no idea about his daughter's death. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SoapDope Posted June 15, 2015 Members Share Posted June 15, 2015 Jordan Clarkes wife Valerie Hawkins was also an actress. In the 60's she did a horror film called 'Sting Of Death" about a jellyfish monster....LOL. Also in the 60's she was the girl in the Texaco ads dressed as a firefighter. I've seen some on youtube. Her daughter commented on one. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Mitch Posted June 16, 2015 Members Share Posted June 16, 2015 God the show sucked at that time. Though I had to laugh at Miss Sally's nightgown being devored by a feathered boa. That and Zimmer's overacting in that clip looks like a parody of soaps. I don't remember Miss Sally going after H.B. (I know she was Billy's real mom) but she looked pretty damn good...(I thought of her as an old broad at the time.) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted June 16, 2015 Members Share Posted June 16, 2015 Is the clip of her dying at the wedding available? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SoapDope Posted June 16, 2015 Members Share Posted June 16, 2015 Looking back to some early Vanessa scenes on youtube, I feel that Maeve Kinkead might have been good as a recast for Brenda Dickson as Jill on Y&R. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted June 16, 2015 Members Share Posted June 16, 2015 That would have been interesting, although I wonder if she would have fit the Y&R style. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members amybrickwallace Posted June 17, 2015 Members Share Posted June 17, 2015 Wow, I never knew Fred Scollay was on GL. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SoapDope Posted June 17, 2015 Members Share Posted June 17, 2015 (edited) I think she would have fit in nicely. I can picture her going up against Katherine and the Abbott's. She had elements of Brenda and Deborah Adair in her early Vanessa. Edited June 17, 2015 by SoapDope 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members slick jones Posted June 17, 2015 Members Share Posted June 17, 2015 Fred Scollay was Dr. Tim Sullivan for a few months during Bert's amputation story. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members amybrickwallace Posted June 17, 2015 Members Share Posted June 17, 2015 Thanks!! Plus, he looked exactly the same when he recurred as a judge on the original L&O in the 90s. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members slick jones Posted June 17, 2015 Members Share Posted June 17, 2015 Yup, he was older, yet ageless if that makes sense! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members TimWil Posted June 17, 2015 Members Share Posted June 17, 2015 (edited) I think Y&R at that time, with its endless pauses and slow pacing, just wouldn't have been a good fit for her. Edited June 17, 2015 by TimWil 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members NothinButAttitude Posted June 17, 2015 Members Share Posted June 17, 2015 I know this arc had to painful for longterm GL, who grew up loving and caring for Bert. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted June 17, 2015 Members Share Posted June 17, 2015 I think the idea of it was to be inspirational, which it may have been if Charita hadn't been ill 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
