Members Khan Posted May 28, 2013 Members Share Posted May 28, 2013 It sounds like something I've heard before as well. At the very least, it's plausible that GL would have wanted her for Annie. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members frequentsoapfan Posted May 28, 2013 Members Share Posted May 28, 2013 Teresa Castillo said MT called her up after seeing her on an epi of Franklin & Bash to audition for the role of Delores Padilla. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ryan Chamberlain Posted May 28, 2013 Members Share Posted May 28, 2013 At least her character would have been offscreen by now. Or, if not...Padilla was still more interesting than that travesty Sabrina. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members cassadine1991 Posted June 2, 2013 Members Share Posted June 2, 2013 Hillary B. Smith wanted to come back to ATWT but Ellen Dolan was currently in the role but when Dolan briefly left ATWT in 1993, Douglas Marland wanted Hillary B. Smith to come back but she couldn't due to being hired on OLTL 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members soapfave06 Posted June 2, 2013 Members Share Posted June 2, 2013 I love her as Nora and while I'm a bigger OLTL fan than ATWT, I would have preferred Hillary as Margo rather than Ellen, who I never liked when I watched on and off from 2006-2010. She was so cold and boring. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members cassadine1991 Posted June 2, 2013 Members Share Posted June 2, 2013 Did anyone put that Lynn Herring auditioned for the role of Kelly Capwell on Santa Barbara, but she lost it to Robin Wright? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members juniorz1 Posted June 2, 2013 Members Share Posted June 2, 2013 First, I think it's HILARIOUS that Jeff Trachta, of all people, tested for the role of Jack Abbott. Second, why they replaced Clayton Norcross with him is beyond my comprehension. Really? I had no idea about that one. Lynn would have been all kinds of wrong for that role. Also, does anyone know if Nancy Lee Grahn ever auditioned to play Margo when Ellen Dolan left in the 90s? I know her name was bandied about by the soap press, but not sure if she ever actually went after the part. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members John Posted June 3, 2013 Members Share Posted June 3, 2013 (edited) NLG never did audition I think ATWT was gonna offer her it in 1994 but Ellen Dolan inquired about coming back first Edited June 3, 2013 by John 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members juniorz1 Posted June 3, 2013 Members Share Posted June 3, 2013 That's too bad. I'd have much rather seen her as Margo than GH's Alexis. Especially since I actually got hooked on ATWT and all. GH, for whatever reason, never could grab me and hold onto me as a viewer. I've watched infrequently over the years, but once I'd get invested in a character (like Sharon Wyatt's Tiffany or Sean Kanan's AJ in the 90s), they'd backburner them and write them off the show. Billy Warlock, IMO, was a HORRIBLE idea for a recast AJ. I don't even understand how that got on paper, let alone looked good on it. And I was HUGELY disappointed that Tiffany (and Sean) didn't return for the 50th Anniversary. I miss the days of Tiffany vs Bobbie! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted June 3, 2013 Members Share Posted June 3, 2013 I think she may have been asked but turned it down, as she later said that she overestimated the amount of interesting parts for women. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members juniorz1 Posted June 3, 2013 Members Share Posted June 3, 2013 I just can't with Alexis. It's painfully obvious that they wanted to re-create Julia on GH but Alexis is a pale, pale imitation. At least with Margo, it would have been a completely different character and they wouldn't have ever tried to make her into something that NLG had already done. That said, I've never had any issue with Ellen Dolan as Margo. I rarely found her boring and she made the most of everything that she was given. HOWEVER, she didn't have that....thing...with BH's Hal that HBS had. I remember switching over to ATWT every now and then back in the day and I always realllllly wanted Margo/Hal to get together. But when Dolan took over, the relationship just wasn't the same. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted June 3, 2013 Members Share Posted June 3, 2013 HBS and Ben had a very warm yet romantic chemistry. She had little to none with Scott Holmes. Dolan had it with Holmes but not that much with Ben. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members juniorz1 Posted June 3, 2013 Members Share Posted June 3, 2013 How was her chemistry with Gregg Marx? I never watched at the time, but upon seeing some stuff on YouTube and SoapClassics, it seemed to me that he had more chemistry with Colleen Zenk. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted June 3, 2013 Members Share Posted June 3, 2013 I thought Gregg and HBS had wonderful chemistry - playful, sexy, emotional, dramatic, sad, etc.They ran the gamut. I think he had some with Colleen too but the story never went in that direction. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted July 5, 2013 Members Share Posted July 5, 2013 Stephen Nichols was considered for the role of GH's Damian Smith. Mary Beth Evans told SOD that he turned it down because he had other projects; GH said it was a money issue. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
