Filming out of sequence makes It much easier to group scenes when it comes time for editing in the post, which also means that it is more cost effective. I can imagine, however that it would mess with an actor’s sense of continuity, especially if an actor has done a very intense scene, or has to begin with a very intense, having done something completely different in an out of sequence set of scenes shot previously.

That screen shot is hilarious.

Should I watch this episode? I still have yet to see it.

Patricia talks more about her family and husband and her theatre work than ATWT. I'm sure there would've been more ATWT talk had Alan not stopped it earlier.

The screen shot was a reaction to something Patricia said which shouldn't have had that reaction.

She is in control most of the time.  

She did explain a bit the reasoning behind why the show made David have amnesia, plus said she was close to the actress who played Ariel (even mentioning where she was living now).

I was glad for that because I actually thought Judith Blazer was dead.

I don't watch a lot of these interviews, to be honest, but in this case, I felt like Patricia herself actually redirected ATWT conversation back to her theater work. Theater seemed to be a lifelong passion for her, and one she is still involved in now. 

Anyway, I can't remember if I have posted this before, but I have finally stumbled onto this commercial again. It's a bra commercial with, I am 70%  sure, Brooke Alexander, but they very obviously dub her voice. I can't remember if I have seen the American version of this. I've seen this happen a few times but it never stops seeming odd. 

The bra ad airs twice - the last is at 14 minutes or so. 

This reel also has a detergent commercial with Scott Hoxby, who was in quite a few European commercials (I believe he never spoke in them).

 

Yep, it's Brooke, lol.

Today is Gregg Marx birthday!!

 

Another actor whom I'd love to see again on a soap, despite all the remaining soaps being so piss-poor.

I am watching the Locher Room episode with Patricia Bruder Debrovner and I guess the advantage of watching the livestream in real time is that you don’t get all the ads.

^^So pretty!

I didn't see this up, so: Tonya Pinkins talks to SOC.

Quote

 

Pinkins: I think most of [the AMC cast] was pretty down to earth. I'm still in touch with Jill Larson [Opal Cortlandt] and Bill Christian [Derek Frye]. They're just really wonderful people. I mean, truly, there were good people on that show. I can't say the same for As the World Turns. That was a tense, tense world.

Soap Central: Yes, you mentioned that in another interview recently. You said the writers were taking the actors' real-life situations and putting them into the scripts?

Pinkins: Hm-hm. Yeah.

Soap Central: Did that happen to you?

Pinkins: It didn't happen to me, but there were people who were sleeping with other people's husbands and stuff like that, and it would come up in the show. So, friends of those people who were friends off-camera would get this opportunity to go off on them on-camera, and because it was a real thing that was happening, it was very tense there. Very tense.

Soap Central: Wow. Well, fortunately, at least one good thing is you had the opportunity to work with some very talented actors, such as Meg Ryan [Betsy Stewart], Julianne Moore [Frannie/Sabrina Hughes]...

Pinkins: Oh, it was great! Soap operas are a great training ground, a great, great training ground.

Soap Central: Did you realize at the time that you were in this pool of mega-talent? Because so many people you were working with went on to become massive stars.

Pinkins: No, not at all. Not at all. But they did, Julianne and Marisa [Tomei, Marci Thompson] and Steven [Weber, Kevin Gibson] and Meg, yeah. There were amazingly talented people who came out of there.

 

She also talks at length about AMC.

Maybe that’s old news to the more dedicated ATWT viewers but wow.

Not exactly unclear who she's talking about.

Kathryn Hays has passed.

Oh, dammit.

She had so much grace and class, but also incredible grit onscreen. I'll try to reserve my longer comments for when this inevitably becomes a bigger discussion either in this thread or another one. I'm so glad we got to see her on those Zoom interviews.

You know time is going to keep taking these people a lot of us grew up with from us, but it never gets easier.
