Members MrQuartermaine Posted September 30, 2012 Members Share Posted September 30, 2012 When David Lewis exited the role of Edward Quartermaine on GH, TPTB were looking to cast either Cesar Romero or Eddie Albert before going with the virtually unknown John Ingle. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members MrQuartermaine Posted September 30, 2012 Members Share Posted September 30, 2012 Yeah even when they did manage to cast Eddie Albert in a role, it didn't last long at all. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted September 30, 2012 Members Share Posted September 30, 2012 Wasn't Eddie Albert sick by then, though? Or perhaps his Alzheimer's was diagnosed later? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted September 30, 2012 Members Share Posted September 30, 2012 I think that was the late 90s. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MrQuartermaine Posted September 30, 2012 Members Share Posted September 30, 2012 Eddie Albert was on GH in 1993. I don't know when he was diagnosed with Alzheimer's, but he was 87 at the time!!! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ghfan89 Posted October 1, 2012 Members Share Posted October 1, 2012 (edited) When Kelsey Grammer was on Letterman about a month ago, He told a story of one of his first auditions when he was 23 for OLTL. Actually his girlfriend at the time was there to audition and he was just accompanying her, but the casting director liked his look and asked him to audition as well. He had to read a scene with of all people, Dana Delaney (also unknown at that point in time). There was a kissing scene and Dana said to him "when it's time to do that part, let's just go all out" and Grammer explained on Letterman that he didn't know exactly what that would entail since he had never done that yet for his career. Basically, it meant that when it came time for the kiss, Delaney shoved her tongue down his throat and he just froze. He didn't get the part because he blew it, but she did get the part. @5:40 https://www.youtube....h?v=m5Cb6A5M9P0 Edited October 1, 2012 by ghfan89 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dc11786 Posted October 2, 2012 Members Share Posted October 2, 2012 Is it possible Grammer is confusing "One Life to Live" with "Love of Life"? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members antmunoz Posted October 14, 2012 Members Share Posted October 14, 2012 Probably. LOL is pretty much forgotten. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted October 22, 2012 Members Share Posted October 22, 2012 In 1995, Robert Fontaine (ex-Rafe, SB) was asked to test for AMC's Mateo, but declined, as he was busy with his production company. In 1985, Tony Curtis was supposedly asked to appear on Dynasty. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SFK Posted October 23, 2012 Members Share Posted October 23, 2012 I could see Tony as slimey Joel Abrigore. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
