Christian Marlowe, son of KT Stevens and Hugh Marlowe (and on Love of Life in its last few years), auditioned for Y&R's Lance (when they were first casting).

I wonder what he was offered on Passions? Ethan maybe?....yeah I can see it, and he does sort of look like James Hyde who played Sam (his father)

I believe on Passions he was offered both Ethan & Hank

A spring 1980 Daytime Stars mentions that GL producers regretted not choosing Cynthia Bostick (who played Douglas' wife and Jeff's love, the unstable Marcia, on ATWT in 1979-1980) as a recast for Jackie Marler, and might still do so.

(clearly they never did)

Was the replacement for Cindy Picket that bad?

This was when Pickett had recently left the role for good, after a brief return.

They then cast Carrie Mowery, who was very basic and forgettable.

An early 2003 Digest has "GH setsiders" saying Kristina Sisco (ex-Abigail, ATWT, ex-Charity, Passions) was being considered as a recast Emily Quartermaine.
