Members John Posted January 4, 2015 Members Share Posted January 4, 2015 (edited) EHP always seems to be the bridesmaid, never the bride. I could see Lauren woodland as courtney but ET I think that would have failed and she was the frontrunner?

Members John Posted January 4, 2015 Members Share Posted January 4, 2015 Sally Sussman Morina almost became Head Writer of LOVING in 1991 Years before becoming Head writer at OLTL in 2013, Thom Racina was close to a deal to head write the soap in 1991 but the deal fell thru. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members robbwolff Posted January 5, 2015 Members Share Posted January 5, 2015 Out of curiosity, why do you think Erin Torpey would have failed as Courtney? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members John Posted January 5, 2015 Members Share Posted January 5, 2015 the reason Im glad they recast OLTL's Jessica, torpey still comes across to young & naive. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members slick jones Posted January 5, 2015 Members Share Posted January 5, 2015 (edited) I can field that one, IMHO, Courtney was one of the worst of Guza's insta sisters that appeared at the time. Actually, they all kinda stunk. Sarah Webber, kung fu Courtney, Kristina Cassadine and I think there was another. Courtney was all over the board...she's a victim, she's a hero, she's with Jason, she's w/AJ, she's w/ Jax, she's w/ Nik...No matter who played her, the character was an OVEREXPOSED Clunker. Kristina was a great actress in a role they didn't know what to do with, and Sarah Webber at the time...I don't even remember the story...Torpey would have been a little too soft, EHP a little harsh, but the only thing that made Courtney work for me was the monkey fever. They all seemed about as well planned as Cartini's characters! Again I know a lot of people liked Kung Fu Barbie, but that's just my opinion.

Members DRW50 Posted January 5, 2015 Members Share Posted January 5, 2015 (edited) Sarah wasn't an insta-sister. McTavish created the insta-sisters. Guza killed Kristina off almost as soon as he got back. I'm always surprised when I find a Courtney fan.

Members John Posted January 5, 2015 Members Share Posted January 5, 2015 GH had no story planned for Sarah when she returned in 2002 and I hated the actress 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members slick jones Posted January 5, 2015 Members Share Posted January 5, 2015 I know Sarah wasn't an insta sister, but McTavish was so busy tying the other two, and Sarah returned at the same time. I seriously haven' t any recollection of that return except she was terrible. I don't think anyone I know liked KUNG FU Courtney...She was self righteous one day,stripper the next...I just couldn't stand her. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members slick jones Posted January 9, 2015 Members Share Posted January 9, 2015 I just read an old JMR column that said Tina Sloan was a contender for Laura Horton in 76. I couldn't remember if it was posted before. She landed Patti Whiting on SFT instead! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
