On DAYS she played Renee from 1981-84. The first thing she said in the interview was that she relates to Sally Field, when she said, "You like me. You really like me." except that Philece is saying, "You remember me! You really remember me!" She has not done this kind of interview since 1989. She shares that she has stayed in touch with Gregg Marx all these years. He now does singing engagements & she often attends. When she left DAYS, the show was 2 weeks ahead on taping. She found out her character was being killed off through rumor on the set. She marched into Al Rabin's office & asked if it was true. He told her to sit down. She shares that Lee & Renee both got labeled as bitches but they were just really misunderstood. In the story at first she thought Lee was her older sister, not her mother. She tells about this one scene. Lee has left a letter for her. This is how she found out she was a DiMera. Marlena reads it to her. The scene was just over 7 minutes & they did it in one take, no cuts, no edits. This happened to be shortly after Brenda Benet's tragic death & Philece was really crying, not acting. Deidre had to keep it together because she had to read the entire letter. But, afterward, she was having trouble because she too was all choked up. In reality it was all just too raw & too real. The day that they found Brenda, the actress who played Jessica called everyone & told them to come to her house & they were all told, there, that afternoon, because they didn't want any of them to hear it on the evening news. Brenda Benet's 7 year old son had died in 1981. She & her husband Bill Bixby had divorced in 1980. They found her at 3:30 in the afternoon. She had shot herself. April 7, 1982. She was 36 yrs. old. The tragedy of her life touched the whole cast, crew, everyone. I've posted before, here, a tribute Bill Hayes wrote about her. Near the end of the hour they talked about Philece's career as a voice actor for animation. She did one of her voices, a little boy named Lester. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members asafi Posted January 23 Members Share Posted January 23 The whole Renee/Tony/DiMera storyline had so much more to give. They really cut it short with that Salem Slasher murder. And man, hearing how tight the cast was - gathering at someone's house to break that awful news about Brenda before it hit the media... that's real family right there. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Contessa Donatella Posted January 23 Members Share Posted January 23 When she said that, I was stunned. But, then I thought about it & it was kind of great that they did it that way. Such compassion, such thoughtfulness, and you are right to call it family. Also, I got a real kick out of the show being two weeks ahead!! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members JAS0N47 Posted January 24 Members Share Posted January 24 Update on Salem Spectator website: The hosting company of the Salem Spectator website randomly deleted the entire website a few days ago. If you have visited there before, you know what a fun and nice board it was to post on. It was probably the longest-running board that I had been posting on. They had over 20 years of summaries which I think were all lost in the deletion. I checked on Internet Archive and it doesn't seem to have much saved beyond the main index page. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Contessa Donatella Posted January 24 Members Share Posted January 24 Never thought about it but it makes sense. They would have to write the recently deceased actor out of at least one or a few episodes. It's just so sad. Is there no reason stated? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JAS0N47 Posted January 25 Members Share Posted January 25 I never knew they had a Facebook page until someone messaged me today and pointed me to it, but on the Salem Spectator Facebook page was this post: "Ladies and gentlemen, I come to you with a humble and saddened heart today. Some time on or about January 22nd, 2025, the Web hosting company (hostgator.com) that we have relied upon for over a decade arbitrarily deleted the web hosting for salemspectator.com, to include all files, data, and intellectual property. Put simply, while we could go to another web hosting company and start completely over from scratch, we are "unburdened by what has been". Nothing of what we built over the last 20 years exists any longer." 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Maxim Posted January 25 Members Share Posted January 25 I hate when things like this happen. Especially when it's 2025... and it's shouldn't be happening. And I'm so sad that the internet archive doesn't have it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
