Members DRW50 Posted March 3 Members Share Posted March 3 Thanks. That was fun. As always I find Tad somewhat offputting even when we are meant to agree with him. Natalie Ross was so great. Few could play a judgmental bitch the way she could. I'm not surprised they kept Enid around for so long after she lost any close ties to Pine Valley. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Soaplovers Posted March 3 Members Share Posted March 3 That scene really highlighted the different socioeconomical levels within Pine Valley. Phoebe had good reason to not like Dixie, but she and Enid should have just given her the cold shoulder and not trashed her within ear shot of Dixie. Enid is used to great effect into the mid 90s to great effect even when her family is no longer in town. She helped provide texture, and there were a few instances where she drew the line (i.e. during the whole Cindy situation, etc). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Contessa Donatella Posted March 3 Members Share Posted March 3 I understand, completely, why she was not a big draw, at first. And, I think you said she was crying all the dang time & that is so boring & so tiring. Do you have empathy for this whiny, weepy person? Probably not. Now Tad, yes, he becomes interesting. Also isn't he charming? Adam, do you just want to slap him? David Canary was so good at playing a powerful man who was never kind. It is still so funny to me that Cady was a recast Dixie. She seemed to own the part. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members EricMontreal22 Posted March 4 Members Share Posted March 4 (edited) Not sure where to post this (I suspect someone wrote something elsewhere?) but in sad news, the children of Felicia Minei Behr have posted about her death on FB. As everyone here knows it was her run on AMC that made me a soap fanatic as a kid/young teen: We are writing on behalf of our mom, Felicia. She passed away peacefully on March 2nd surrounded by loved ones. We appreciate the love and support you have given our family over the last 5 years as she battled brain cancer. For memorial/viewing information, please reach out to us. - Francesca Behr and Kristina Behr Miller Some writers who worked under her, including Hal Corley (who was so great when I interviewed him for my MA) have posted replies: Hal Corley: Devastating news, Kristina Behr and Francesca. Felicia was my ally and sometime champion. I worked with her on AMC and ATWT and again when she was an executive at ABC. Nobody reveled in the form's glories - and meeting its considerable challenges - more than Felicia. She was a rare producer who had absolute trust in those on her team: she delegated with confidence, investment, and respect. She appreciated soap writers as foundational to the genre's success or failure, as few do. She was also famously unflappable: no crisis escalated into drama because Felicia left the drama to the small screen. A genuinely generous-spirited human being away from her tiered executive responsibilities, she was also my friend. She continued to stay in touch after we both left daytime, and a call could buoy me with nostalgia and wickedly funny memories of shared experience. And did Felicia have stories! I loved her dearly and send my heartfelt condolences to you both and your family. Millee Taggart Ratcliffe: I second every word Hal!

Members Khan Posted March 4 Members Share Posted March 4 I'm so sorry to hear that. I didn't always enjoy watching AMC when it was under her watch, but I would agree that she had her finger on that show's pulse better than the EP's who came after her. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Contessa Donatella Posted March 4 Members Share Posted March 4 I would suggest also posting it in the ABC Daytime topic or even giving it its own topic since besides AMC she was head of ABCD & EP of ATWT (P&G/CBS). It was Felicia Minei Behr that Wendy Riche was having breakfast with when they were talking about the inevitable, then pending cancellation of The City & what to put there in that timeslot & Riche described what came to be Port Charles (PC) and Behr told her to go write it up as a formal proposal. She said that if it were her, she'd bracket the ABC soap afternoon with GH, beginning with a new one focusing on doctors in training in a kind of wing of the hospital all their own & end it with traditional GH. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members EricMontreal22 Posted March 4 Members Share Posted March 4 I appreciate the suggestion, thanks so much! Yeah, one of the saddest things to ever happen to ABC Daytime was that apparently it was between Behr and Brian Frons to become the new head of ABCD (in 2002 I think?) And we know who they chose... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
