ALL: Temporary Replacements

[DRW50]

Thank you for finding this again. I couldn't for some reason.

Mary Grace Canfield repeatedly subbed for Lucille Wall on GH in the early 70s.

[John]

That Is True That was Like 1973 or so

[John]

Anyone remember Les Trymane as Edward on GH. He was Victor on OLTL Briefly also.

[SFK]

I've seen some of his Edward on YouTube, he was a good physical and vocal match for David Lewis. Christine Jones was an odd choice for Tracy.

[John]

Was That At The Same Time?

I don't know if this was mentioned (I tried to read all the replies, but it was a lot to read and I might have missed a few comments), but in 1989 Rhonda Aldrich was a temporary replacement for Mary Beth Evans as Kayla on DAYS. She was absolutely awful. MBE was pregnant and Aldrich was there for about a week, I think.

Also in 1989, Shelley Morgan Taylor did a few episodes as Angelica Deveraux, Jack's stepmother, after Jane Elliot had left the role, but before Judith Chapman had arrived to take over.

[Paul Raven]

Morgan was not a temporary relacement,even though it might seem that way. She was intended to be the new Anjelica but once she started onscreen,the consensus was that she was too young and otherwise not suited, so she was canned.

I never knew about mary Grace Canfield on GH. I loved her on Green Acres as Ralph,one of the painters who constantly worked (with no apparent progress),on the Douglas farm.

[JAS0N47]

Yes, Rhonda did 3 episodes as Kayla.

As for Shelley, she was hired on contract as Anjelica. But then they fired her after a few weeks and hired Judith Chapman.

[John]

Seeing Rhonda Aldrich Would Be Interesting

Id Love To See Judy Chapman As Jill from 1992 or any of the Katherine Subs

Is any of this On YT?

[SFK]

Not at the same time, I believe he was on before she was. Here's a little bit of Christine as Tracy:

GH doesnt have any traditional families anymore

[John]

God Sharon Case Looked Lost There

Christine Jones Didnt Do Much As Tracy There

Ive seen clips of her and some face cream as Tracy which was funny

Why Did Jane Elliot Need Time Off?

[John]

When AW announced Cancelation In April 99 Rumor Has It That Vicky Whydham was so pissed when she left that night that the brass did not think she would show up so they called Marj Dusay who was already to fill in but VW showed up the next day.

John, I remember that blurb in SOD about actresses such as Marj being contacted to fill in for a very upset Victoria but I believe it was when Charles Keating was fired, not the cancellation.

[DRW50]

Apparently Marla Adams was tracked down in the frozen food aisle when they asked her to fill in for Carolyn Jones.
