Members Jonathan Posted February 23, 2012 Members Share Posted February 23, 2012 I agree. Though, I hated the Trevor/Janet pairing. It just didn't make sense after what Janet did to Natalie. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members BKuzak Posted February 24, 2012 Members Share Posted February 24, 2012 I know Erica was trapped a fire during a Pine Valley fashion show in the early 80's (83 i think). I think that's when Donna Beck Tyler's son died. Phoebe was hosting it and i think she invited Erica because during that time Erica was a big model living in New York. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted February 24, 2012 Members Share Posted February 24, 2012 I was reading an article from when Angie was supposed to be joining Loving, and they said in there that ABC had confirmed Angie would also be making an appearance on AMC, they just didn't have a date. I wonder why that didn't happen. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted February 24, 2012 Members Share Posted February 24, 2012 This may already all be on Youtube, I'm not sure, but you may enjoy it or find a few new clips. Early on the camera also shows more of Walt Willey's inner thigh than he may have cared for. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pMZRI-6Oyn8 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members EricMontreal22 Posted February 24, 2012 Members Share Posted February 24, 2012 This REALLY needs to be in unpopular opinions. The Laverry curse was played out (years later) but made some sense on paper. as Chris' ever? At anyrated his yokel delivery was horrible--if Carlos had been mor of a major character, Chris and he would be at my bottom of worst soap actors. I am sure he was a good actor in some life but he and Erica were so awful-the nadir of Cullionton's run (which otherwise had un-touched potential) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted February 24, 2012 Members Share Posted February 24, 2012 I don't think Culliton really had a chance to implement long-term ideas - I felt like he just stayed with Chris/Erica while he was building up problems with Kendall and Bianca. Or maybe I'm just being generous. I think it was Passanante who started Chris/Erica - I still have some awful, mostly blocked memories of Erica being menaced by his huge dog or something. Chris being Ryan's father led to no story - it just seemed too easy. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted February 24, 2012 Members Share Posted February 24, 2012 Oh, this has some of the notorious Barney the Clown story. I don't think any of that is on Youtube is it? Notice them playing "Have I Stayed Too Long At The Fair" in the background of some of Erica's scenes when she talks about her circus dream. Albert Stratton ends up looking like a cross of Peter Brown and Richard Mulligan. There's a tiny bit of very late Lauren Holly near the end of this - I think she looks good with that short hair. It certainly shows more of her true age though. I had totally forgotten Eric was her grandfather. It sucks they didn't bring Mark back (hadn't he just left!) for this story. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members ellabelle Posted February 24, 2012 Members Share Posted February 24, 2012 ^ Was the "Everyone loves Lucci" article before or after the rumors of a feud with SMG started? I remember reading that article in SOD at the time and wondering what precipitated several pages of "Oh she so's wonderful." 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted February 24, 2012 Members Share Posted February 24, 2012 I'm not sure. You probably already know this, but this was a feature SOD did for long-running soap actors at this time (they did one for Jeanne Cooper, and probably a few others). They were a month or so behind, I think, so SMG can't have been around all that long by this point. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ellabelle Posted February 24, 2012 Members Share Posted February 24, 2012 Okay, I did remember getting the magazine in the mail and being delighted that there was a feature on my favorite actress, but I kind of tuned out everything that didn't apply to AMC or Santa Barbara, so I probably didn't even notice them doing that for other actors. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted February 24, 2012 Members Share Posted February 24, 2012 You do have a good point though. 1993-1994 changed Erica's character (and SL as an actress) for good, so I am always fascinated by stuff from that time. Seeing that much talked about Erica French maid clip, I was surprised at how playful the whole thing was, for an extended period of time, and how free and natural she was with Jack. In later years she always seemed very guarded with him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ellabelle Posted February 24, 2012 Members Share Posted February 24, 2012 That user posted another long clip of Jack and Erica as well. It's interesting to see how much Jack changed, how he went from a confirmed bachelor who swore he'd never marry, who wanted fun and excitement in his life, to being this more staid family man who walked out on Erica at the end because SHE didn't want to get married. Jack, IMHO, was one of the more wasted characters on AMC in the final 15 years of the show. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted February 24, 2012 Members Share Posted February 24, 2012 I'm sorry if you already answered this, but what did you think of the Barney the Clown story? Did you buy him as Erica's father? I didn't realize they had those dreams or any of that (I wish they hadn't edited out the dream Erica had). It was so weird when Erica was rattling off Julie, Donna, etc. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
