Members DRW50 Posted April 29, 2012 Members Share Posted April 29, 2012 The first part of this was posted a few weeks back. I'll just post the next two parts and you can see the rest at the channel. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mOo3j949LO8 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HlqYv7geTO0&feature=channel&list=UL 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members soapfave06 Posted April 29, 2012 Members Share Posted April 29, 2012 What did you all think of Bea Reardon and Barbara Thorpe? Neither actress is horrible, I just can't seem to get caught up in their scenes. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted April 30, 2012 Members Share Posted April 30, 2012 I think Lee Lawson was miscast as Bea. I have not seen a daily grind of her character, just episodes and clips here and there, but she always seems too perky to make me believe she's a hard-working, poor-but-proud, single mother of 4-5 kids. Barbara seems like a pill to me, although apparently that was her role. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members soapfave06 Posted April 30, 2012 Members Share Posted April 30, 2012 Thanks for sharing your opinion Carl. I just can't get caught up in those characters and I usually like the mother figures/vets the most. I just find them boring and out of place. That sounds harsh though, but when I compare them to characters of today, I would take themm. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted April 30, 2012 Members Share Posted April 30, 2012 Unfortunately most of Barbara's time in the story is not around, and most of what we see is her hovering over Holly, and complaining about Roger, and bitching about Rita, which gets on my last nerve, although apparently Rita was despised by many viewers at the time, so I guess Barbara represented them. She isn't a mother figure in my eyes, as she has no real role in that capacity. She mostly just reacts to Holly. I'm not sure if she was a better character when Stanley Norris was around and she had both Ken and Holly to interact with. I think that she's probably a very realistic character, and soaps did need those. But when she's in scenes with Bert you can see the big difference in how vital the characters were. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ~bl~ Posted April 30, 2012 Members Share Posted April 30, 2012 If you compare Barbara Norris to her role as Bridget on Another World, you can see that Barbara Berjer could show different sides in her performances. So I can totally understand not like Barbara Norris as she wasn't the most sympathetic of characters. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
