All My Children Tribute Thread

According to Lucci, her father, Victor, suffered a heart attack in his forties, so there was a genetic element involved.

Heart scares, public tumbles....  Honey, it's time to think about slowing down.

At least, she made her spill look classy.

Please be careful, Susan. My heart couldn't take something worse.

[Darn]

She's adorable.

 

And I never noticed her resemblance to Vanessa Marcil until just now.

I know this story was mostly trash but the lengthy scene near the end of this where Mona [!@#$%^&*] talks a dying Richard Fields at length (with the pretext given that she didn't realize he wasn't faking - in McTavish's later stints they wouldn't have even bothered with the pretext) is classic. You can see where Erica is her daughter. It must have been difficult and strange for Frances Heflin to play such ugly, melodramatic material in her final months of life, but at least viewers got one last showcase of her talent.

Yes, I remember this well. They showed a portion of it on the AMC 25th anniversary episode of Oprah when they paid tribute to Mrs. Heflin.

 

Listening to Anton here, he sounds like a young Victor Newman.

Awesome thread. Curious as to what is considered the last solid quality year for AMC? In watching old  episodes on youtube something seemed to fall off after 1997.

I disagree, I actually liked the story... the problem was the casting of Sarah Michelle Gellar in the part.  It threw off the timeline quite a bit.
