In spring 1990, when Brian Fitzpatrick got the recast role of Rick Alden on Loving, he mentioned that he'd previously gotten close to winning the roles of Max on OLTL and Jamie on AW.

Yeah, they cast Walker solely on his chemistry with Fiona Hutchison... but beyond that, there was just nothing similar to DePaiva. They actually passed on Richard Eden (ex-Brick Wallace, Santa Barbara; of ABC's "RoboCop" primetime series) - who I thought would have been a really good choice.

A Soap Opera Magazine item from April 1994 has GL's casting person Jimmy Bohr talking about when Leonard Stabb had been cast as Hart. They were very fond of one of the runners-up, David Case, and brought him back for a small role (according to IMDB he did some acting/directing up to 2007). Another runner-up was Shawn Christian, who would soon be cast as Mike Kasnoff on ATWT.

That's too bad about Kimberlee Simms. She would have been dynamite as Vicky, far better than the awful Jensen Buchanan.

I LOVE Noelle Beck but she would have been all kinds of wrong as Vicky. I'd have liked to have seen her take on Amanda though.

I'm pretty sure that role was written for Philip Brown, who was actually cast but had to quit because he had problems memorizing all of the lines.

Frantz is a legend in her own mind. If you listen to her talk too much, your ears may start to bleed.

No, it was actually written with DePaiva in mind... but he ended up staying with OLTL. They then cast the role with Philip Brown, who never made it to air because of what you mentioned (among other things rumored).
