Members amybrickwallace Posted August 28, 2014 Members Share Posted August 28, 2014 I love the pictures in the "Who's Who" - the 80s in all its glory. LOL 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Paul Raven Posted August 29, 2014 Members Share Posted August 29, 2014 A documentary has been made about Susan Oliver (Laura #3) that talks about her numerous primetime guest shots,flying career and attempts at directing. Also appearing are other primetime actors who did soaps including Lee Meriwether,Roy Thinnes, David Hedison and Peter Mark Richman. Sounds interesting http://thegreengirlmovie.com/ 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members jam6242 Posted August 29, 2014 Members Share Posted August 29, 2014 Looks like an interesting documentary. Susan Oliver was my least favorite Laura (I don't remember Floy Dean) though. She just came across as kind of cold to me. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members cassadine1991 Posted August 29, 2014 Members Share Posted August 29, 2014 Which Laura did many Days viewers like the most? Flannery or Bauer? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted August 29, 2014 Members Share Posted August 29, 2014 I'd love to know that myself. I suspect Susan Flannery is the more beloved Laura, but Jaime Lyn Bauer probably has her staunch defenders, too. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members kenerly1 Posted August 29, 2014 Members Share Posted August 29, 2014 Flannery for me...she looked so different than she did on B&B. Very good actress though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted August 29, 2014 Author Members Share Posted August 29, 2014 I think JLB did a good job as Laura, especially considering her material was so histrionic - she was hilarious and ridiculous but I think when she had quieter moments she sold them. I also loved her feud with Kate. I would imagine Flannery was the most popular, given that she was one of the show's main leading ladies during its peak years. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Paul Raven Posted August 29, 2014 Members Share Posted August 29, 2014 Any love for Rosemary Forsythe? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members jam6242 Posted August 30, 2014 Members Share Posted August 30, 2014 Susan Flannery was my favorite Laura but I liked Rosemary Forsythe too. I don't mind Jaime Lynn Bauer but Laura seems like a totally different character than the one the others played. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted August 30, 2014 Author Members Share Posted August 30, 2014 The little i've seen of Forsythe I liked, especially her voice. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members teplin Posted August 30, 2014 Members Share Posted August 30, 2014 Susan Flannery was amazing as Laura -- both smart and sexy, icy and hot. Rosemary Forsyth came off as somewhat of a schoolmarm in comparison. Plus, I thought she was too old for the role. Her coldness was effective as Laura descended into madness, however. Bauer's Laura bore no relation to the one that came before. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members cassadine1991 Posted August 30, 2014 Members Share Posted August 30, 2014 I do wonder if they bring Laura back for the 50th, who will they get 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted August 30, 2014 Members Share Posted August 30, 2014 (edited) I feel like that was a common problem among many established characters during JER's time at DAYS. Mark Valley's and especially Steve Wilder's Jack bore no resemblance to Matthew Ashford's. Stephanie Cameron's Jennifer bore no resemblance to Melissa Reeves's. Roark Critchlow? No way was his Mike anything like Michael T. Weiss's. Even John, Marlena and Roman were not what they used to be. I guess that's one reason why I eventually walked away from the show for awhile.
