Members Paul Raven Posted May 21, 2014 Members Share Posted May 21, 2014 (edited) Anna Stuart tested for Felicia on AW, and a few weeks later was offered the recurring role of Donna. Hillary B Smith tested for Becky Lee on OLTL in 79. Edited May 21, 2014 by Paul Raven 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted June 1, 2014 Members Share Posted June 1, 2014 I was watching a 1990 interview with Christopher Templeton (Carole Robbins, Y&R), and she said that Another Life had promised her a role for years, that the show was created around her and the character was written for her, but they just kept her waiting for a lot of years. She eventually just gave up and moved from Phoenix to California to start her acting career in Hollywood. Unfortunately she started talking about something else and never finished talking about the show. I wonder if they ever did anything with this character or if it never happened. Perhaps she was a casualty of the show shifting away from its original format. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members robbwolff Posted June 1, 2014 Members Share Posted June 1, 2014 I'm just curious. How did the show shift away from its original format? In what way? I've never heard anything about Another Life being created around her. Seems odd to me. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted June 1, 2014 Members Share Posted June 1, 2014 They claimed early on they were going to tell stories about various topics (abortion, homosexuality, etc.). In the end they only just ever talked about abortion, I believe. Not that disability is the same as those, but I meant I wonder if they were planning to tell social issue material and a disability story would have been part of that. I assume she didn't actually think it was going to be about her, just that they had a major part written for her. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members robbwolff Posted June 1, 2014 Members Share Posted June 1, 2014 Interesting. I never knew that was the original plan for the show. I would be curious to see how they dealt with the topic of homosexuality. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DRW50 Posted July 6, 2014 Members Share Posted July 6, 2014 In her new Brandon's Buzz interview, Sharon Gabet said she was asked to test for Margo Hughes when Ellen Dolan left in early 1993 (she couldn't remember the character or actress name, but the host did). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members robbwolff Posted July 6, 2014 Members Share Posted July 6, 2014 And she was also tapped to play the role of Barbara Ryan when Colleen Zenk was pregnant with her third child. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
