It might have been. I'm not sure of when WGE left. I also wonder if it was Jack Curtis, but I'm not sure when that character came along.

Suzanne Rogers was told by John Conboy she wasn't right for any of the Brooks sisters, so he had her test for Sally on Y&R.

it read that Melody Thomas Scott may have been up for the role of Heather Webber on GH in 2001

Besides maybe a guest spot on B&B, i just can't picture Melody on another soap besides Y&R for some reason.....

I remember when she had those disputes in 2009, someone suggested that she would have been perfect as Beth Logan on B&B.....I think that was just wishful casting..... though. haha.

I do remember reading that when she was in prolonged talks with Y&R in 2001 that GH did show an interest in her and as Heather which I remember thinking was Odd, Given that RM had been off AMC for about a year at that point

I Could see MTS as a recasted Sandy Horton or even Hope Bauer when GL was still on the air.

• Pamela Sue Martin - was considered as a replacement for Victoria Principal on Dallas during some tense contract talks one season

God the ratings would have been nuts if that happened. Could anyone imagine how the shows would turn out if Dallas did get Pamela Martin on the role and Dynasty casted Victoria on Dynasty as the new Fallon on the same season??

Kathleen Gati said on the internet radio program Lilly Melgar and Martha Madison hosts that she auditioned 14 years ago with Mark Teschner for an unspecified role on either GH or AMC

Sally Stark auditioned to play Marlena, which was then basically described as another Laura. They instead cast her in the short-lived, controversial role of Sharon DuVal.

Curious, what was controversial about Sharon DuVal?

Sharon and her husband (played by Fernando Rey) were troubled. Rey's character seemed interested in Julie. Viewers learned that Sharon was as well, as she revealed her feelings for Julie. This caused considerable fan backlash. I think she attempted suicide and then she and her husband left town so she could get help. I can't remember.

Oh wow, thanks. You'd think that after The Children's Hour, audiences could handle a little lesbian subtext by that point. But from what I understand, folks still weren't ready years later with Katherine and Devon. Of course daytime and film are different animals, but...
