Members MarlandFan Posted February 3 Members Share Posted February 3 Actor Christopher Cass briefly took over for Breen while Breen became suddenly ill. (This is the infamous "mid-love scene" episodes). But Breen returned to continue the role after he recovered from his illness. Then a month or two later Neal was murdered and a distraught Scott disappeared shortly afterward. Breen was on-air until at least June of 1993. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted February 4 Members Share Posted February 4 That is a great idea about Chuckie not actually being dead and the revenge plot from Michael Shea. The Dobsons probably would have loved writing all that mess too. Just add in Cricket getting pregnant again and John having a death feud with Michael. I remember liking Scott at the time. When I have rewatched parts of that period in the last decade, I still do, but that's more down to Breen's charm and breeziness than what should have been most important (his ties to Lisa and Tom). It didn't help that Tom was in the middle of a very heavy story at this time with Margo's rape and HIV scare. I didn't care for Wert at the time, but if the show had been in a better place and he had stayed I might have felt more invested. At least this time around he was more directly involved with Lisa and Tom. I just wish they'd had better plans for him. Pining after Sam and then scheming to get Rosanna's money - none of it interested me. Anything with Rosanna tended to be a nonstarter for me. Cass mentioned how odd the timing was as he was appearing on Loving as a hallucination of Jack Forbes at the same time as he tempted on ATWT. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members P.J. Posted February 4 Members Share Posted February 4 I didn't think Wert was the answer, but compared to Shawn Christian, he was bleepin' Olivier. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Mona Kane Croft Posted February 4 Members Share Posted February 4 Wow, I was watching at this time, but I don't remember this replacement at all. Did this transition occur within one episode, as it appears in the video? Or do these clips come from two different episodes? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members TheyStartedOnSoaps Posted February 4 Members Share Posted February 4 Ended one day with Breen, then picked up the next day with Cass exactly where Breen left off 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Liberty City Posted February 4 Members Share Posted February 4 I remember the first time I saw this scene on YouTube some years ago... I kind of miss when soaps could just do this, and we'd accept it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Contessa Donatella Posted February 4 Members Share Posted February 4 (edited) 2 different episodes. I know because I did an edit of it & you begin with 2 episodes, one day & then the next day.

Members Mona Kane Croft Posted February 4 Members Share Posted February 4 Are you saying we no longer accept actor replacements on soap operas? Or maybe I missed your point. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Liberty City Posted February 4 Members Share Posted February 4 Not what I was stating at all. Just that it happened a bit more casually, sans announcement or "[T]he role of.." and then no ongoing social media fanfare about the recast. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Contessa Donatella Posted February 4 Members Share Posted February 4 But the "role of blah is now played by x" has existed for so long! Are you suggesting they stopped doing that voiceover at some point? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soaplovers Posted February 5 Members Share Posted February 5 Sabrina had the makings of a bad seed daughter. Remember she pretended to be Frannie in order to get with her boyfriend Seth...then she dumps Seth and marries another man. And Claire Beck had played a more crazed and desperate character on AMC so she could have easily tapped into Sabrina's darker side. For some reason, Marland refused to go all the way in making Sabrina the black sleep of the Hughes family. 1977 and 1979 episodes really highlighted Joyce's dark and demented side. No wonder people in early 1980 were leery of Joyce...and if I recall...it turned out Joyce was faking the nice act and was exposed in 1981 before leaving town. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
