Members bellcurve Posted August 10, 2010 Members Share Posted August 10, 2010 I always thought Tamara Braun looked like a cheap Mariah Carey clone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MichaelGL Posted August 10, 2010 Members Share Posted August 10, 2010 ^And yet I feel as if, out of all the recasts since Sarah Brown, Braun is the tamest and most believable in the role of Carly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members bellcurve Posted August 10, 2010 Members Share Posted August 10, 2010 Don't hate! This was the beginning of another groundbreaking, socially relevant couple in daytime: Courtney and Carly. The first, OBVIOUSLY, was Jason and Sonny. ABC Daytime isn't nearly as homophobic as everyone made them out to be in the 90's and early 2000's. Tame...yes. Believable, not so much.

Members Cat Posted August 10, 2010 Members Share Posted August 10, 2010 I wish TB was still in the role TBH. Courtney ugh what a waste of space character. So glad she died and we had three days of watching her in her coffin. See? She's really dead! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted August 10, 2010 Members Share Posted August 10, 2010 Maybe it's some dig at Barbara Bloom... I never bought her as Carly. They rewrote the character for her. They have rewritten the character for every actress in the role. I guess that's typical of a lot of recasts but it's glaring with Carly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members All My Shadows Posted August 10, 2010 Members Share Posted August 10, 2010 I often wonder if real Vegas chapels get offended by the cheesy way they've been portrayed on TV and in movies forever. Jason/Sonny used to have scorching chemistry, but now, not so much. Jason left Sonny for the flavor of the month (James). I feel like I should know the people at the chapel because they look and sound so familiar, but I can't even come up with names... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dragonflies Posted August 10, 2010 Members Share Posted August 10, 2010 Wow did Brenda get even more annoying as the years went by, and IMO Vanessa's acting in the 2002 episode was horrible Braun didn't play Carly, she played a woman named Carly who was nothing but an extension of Sonny. Carly had NO identity under Braun, just Sonny's wife THIS! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members AllMyDaysatGH Posted August 10, 2010 Members Share Posted August 10, 2010 The music they are playing at the Jax/Brenda wedding party sounds just like the music that was playing a few weeks ago at the start of that Franco episode lol. That sounded just like wedding music. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted August 10, 2010 Members Share Posted August 10, 2010 I enjoyed some of the classic background music used in the first two episodes, not the generic stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members AllMyDaysatGH Posted August 10, 2010 Members Share Posted August 10, 2010 I agree, i wish she was to. I would rather have Tams over LW. But SJB will always be my all time fav Carly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members xtr Posted August 10, 2010 Members Share Posted August 10, 2010 I am glad to see Liza in some of these older episodes today. I really liked Courtney, even though I think I might be in the minority on that on the internet. I don't think that a lot of people on the internet liked her. Tamara's Carly is the only Carly I liked with Sonny at times. I liked them back in 2002 and when she got pregnant with Morgan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted August 10, 2010 Members Share Posted August 10, 2010 She's been weak for a long time. She gets by on presence and her looks. I think she was OK for a while but by the end of her first stint she was not good. It's funny, because they hype her with all these dead weight leading men, but the only time I remember her making an effort in her later years was with women. Sarah Brown, Crystal Carson, Kimberly McCullough, Jennifer Hetrick. All her scenes with men, especially Jax, were beyond phoned in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted August 10, 2010 Members Share Posted August 10, 2010 Tamara's Carly was such a damn puppet for Sonny and had no other life outside of him. Even when Sarah Brown's Carly got with Sonny, she was still able to keep a lot of her personality in tact. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
