Remember how Josie Bissett and Jennie Garth had really bad short hair in the late 90s? That reminds me of this. I know Maura sported short hair too in the late 90s but it looked great. Yes it does look like a cheap wig, and that ugly dress from Ross isn't helping. Maura deserves better, as do the other great actresses on Y&R.

Oh God :(

Maura has not always had very good hair on ATWT and sometimes I wonder about her Botox use but she looks much better than that.

It's like they are trying to make that Eden Reigel meets Eileen Heckart photo seem fresh and hip.

She looks like Judi Dench with bedhead!!

A mess!

I think that may be the point here. One of the first thing people pointed out when she was cast was that she was too young. Well I think she defiently looks older in that pic than she does on ATWT. Not exactly a good lok for her though, but I guess it works in context with the age of the character

    • Yes, unfortunately, along with the neurofibromatosis storyline (which I liked), Pam became increasingly shrill and so did Victoria Principal. The writing was not stellar for the character of Pam and the acting followed suit, especially in Seasons 4 and early 5. Miraculously, halfway through Season 5, with that great twist of Pam assuming Christopher was for her, something just fell into place. Principal 'woke up', so to speak, and started to become better and better. With the significant improvement of writing for Pam in Season 6 came a calmer but stronger Pam. By Season 7, Principal was a solid draw, turning in consistently stellar, intriguing performances. She had relaxed. She was magnetic. Season 8 was a highlight. She carried Season 9. It's only when she was thrown back into the Ewing household that it somehow diminished but then she left. I haven't seen anything quite like it before. In my mind, it was a reaction to her material - either she didn't like it or did, and it showed.
    • While I agree the writing for Craig was atrocious, I think the bigger problem was casting Hunt Block in the role. Block was a one-trick pony, really incapable of conveying anything other than an all-consuming self-interest. Block was given plenty of material to use as emmy bait, and only netted one nomination at a period in time when ATWT was awash in them. He was good at portraying a smug belief in his innate superiority, but not the ability to care about anyone else. And it's not like Craig wasn't given those moments, Block either couldn't, or didn't chose to play them.  Meanwhile, Scott Bryce was able to give Craig a conscience in spite of even more atrocious writing.
