Members dc11786 Posted August 24, 2011 Members Share Posted August 24, 2011 Thanks for this article. What an interesting aspect. She has such an interesting outlook on her character's personality. In other articles, Nuala Fitzgerald is said to be one of the show's strongest actress. I can see why. She really seems to be into her role.

Members DRW50 Posted August 24, 2011 Author Members Share Posted August 24, 2011 Did she do any other soaps? Getting to build a character over time, from her point of view, and having so much input, it's one of the benefits of lower budgeted soaps.

Members dc11786 Posted August 24, 2011 Members Share Posted August 24, 2011 I don't think so, but, given her Irish brogue, she could have popped up as one of Maeve's younger sisters on 'Ryan's Hope.' She looks like Maureen Garrett in the topic pic of the article. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Paul Raven Posted October 26, 2011 Members Share Posted October 26, 2011 It's hard to believe that there was no work for Dorothy in the 70's.I mean,a syndicated soap taped in Canada? Maybe she had to be in Hollywood and hustling to land roles in series and TV movies. I always remember the surprise of seeing her in Basic Instinct.

Members DRW50 Posted October 26, 2011 Author Members Share Posted October 26, 2011 Dorothy had some scandals throughout her tenure on Peyton Place. I wonder if that hurt her career. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DRW50 Posted October 26, 2011 Author Members Share Posted October 26, 2011 Well Wikipedia says she filed suit against 20th Century. I can't remember now, so don't take it from me, but the TV magazines of the day I think talked some about a custody battle, or she was arrested. They basically painted her as being some type of mess, complete with various despondent photos. I didn't know she was asked to replace Barbara Bel Geddes as Miss Ellie.

Members dc11786 Posted January 2, 2012 Members Share Posted January 2, 2012 Interesting, Sabina Maydelle is listed as playing 'the doctor's former sister-in-law, and leader of the local jet set." This is Paula Myles, the role Nuala Fitzgerald ended up playing. It seems she dropped out pretty late in the game. As I said earlier in the thread, I saw the pilot at the Paley Center and Fitzgerald had a cast on her foot or her arm. It's also funny that 'Roots' and 'Rich Man, Poor Man' are listed. In another article I was reading on 'Executive Suite,' these miniseries were listed as the reason for the rebirth of the primetime serial. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members dc11786 Posted January 18, 2012 Members Share Posted January 18, 2012 Thanks for the article. I love how they said they were going to watch the first few and then focus on the premier. The show seems fairly clunky until the last few weeks or so when they began to pull it together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
