I don't have a "Dr. Haskell" in the cast list I've compiled, so I'm assuming it was a minor role. Powell was Dr. Spencer Hadley (as needed) from 1966 - 73. It's possible that the actor that was to play Haskell didn't show, so they pulled him in at the last minute.

I'll add the role to the cast list  as well as his Hopper Profile.

Thanks. That makes sense. It's interesting they assumed viewers wouldn't really notice bringing him in for another part when he was recurring as another doctor. I wonder why they didn't just have him as Hadley. Maybe there was already a Haskell in story for this period.

(unless the voiceover just misspoke)

This person is IMO doing such a fine thing. Scammers, like the other person you describe are the lowest of the low! And, your advice is sound. Always, if you have the space to do so, download an episode. You never know. You might be saving an episode that otherwise would vanish.

 

Who’s the scammer?  Forester?

Diane Ladd Dead: 'Alice Doesn't Live Here Anymore' Actress Was 89

Years ago I posted a soap magazine article with Diane. The scan is now gone. If I ever find it again I will repost (or if someone else has it, feel free, not that you need my permission). I was so surprised to learn she was on a soap but she would have been a great soap goddess.

A men's magazine from 1954. The mention of Secret Storm is just a lead-in to the rest of the jokey article but I still thought it was worth sharing as it's so interesting to see how people felt about the soaps at the times they were airing, and getting to read a brief recap of the early story.
