Members amybrickwallace Posted November 19, 2020 Members Share Posted November 19, 2020 Wasn't that Louise Shaffer playing her mother, Goldie Kane?

Members DemetriKane Posted November 19, 2020 Members Share Posted November 19, 2020 Really? WoW. I remember loving some of the sets and even the fashion way into 2005-06. The town always had a classy middle class style to it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted November 19, 2020 Members Share Posted November 19, 2020 I think AMC lost a lot when they let go of scenic designer William Mickley and costume designer Carol Luiken. The two lent such a distinct visual feel to Pine Valley and its' denizens. You really felt like PV was a Main Line town in PA. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members allmc2008 Posted November 20, 2020 Members Share Posted November 20, 2020 When where they on the show? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
victoria foxton Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 Deborah Goodrich played the fake Sliver. Goldie was the mother to the real Sliver. Who was rather meh. And only got interesting when she tried to kill Natalie. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members amybrickwallace Posted November 20, 2020 Members Share Posted November 20, 2020 Thank you, @victoria foxton. Do you think the problem with Goldie was more on LS or the writers? Wasn't LS also on the AMC writing team around this same time? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
victoria foxton Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 (edited) The whole story was SO BAD. Which was very rare of AMC of that era. It didn't help that Sliver had no real personality. And her and Jeremy had zero chemistry. Goldie and Dr. Damon Lazzare were cartoonish villains. A pregnant Erica was even shoot in the stomach.

Members DemetriKane Posted November 21, 2020 Members Share Posted November 21, 2020 (edited) I don’t think they should have recast Silver. Even though we only saw very little of her, I liked vibe and look of the original actress who played Silver. I saw her eventually becoming a threat to Erica for men, fame and fortune. Forget boring Jeremy, Silver was needed for the Travis/Erica/Jackson triangle. Silver could have been saved if the writer’s wanted to but they make everything so easy for Erica.

Members John Posted November 21, 2020 Members Share Posted November 21, 2020 AMC had planned for AJ to come out as Gay but the Prospect Park version died before that could happen https://michaelfairmantv.com/eric-nelsen-talks-latest-film-becoming-a-tony-nominated-producer-the-bay-and-his-elizabeth-gillies-ariana-grande-connection/2020/11/20/ 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DRW50 Posted November 23, 2020 Members Share Posted November 23, 2020 VHSGoodiesWA, who sometimes uploaded soap episodes, replied to a comment from me saying they took down their AMC episodes (they had already taken down their OLTL episodes) because they are wary of strikes - they also mentioned Pannoni4 is gone due to strikes. If any of you have the space or time, please consider downloading all of the videos from classic channels like HamiltonBernique, VintageAMC, or bluerose8508. I am not sure how much longer they will be around. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Sean Posted November 23, 2020 Members Share Posted November 23, 2020 (edited) I think Louise Shaffer wrote for AMC a while later, around 2000-2002. She started her first soap writing gig pretty much right after her stint as Goldie ended, joining the staff of Ryan's Hope around November 1987 and staying with RH until its cancellation.

Members Vee Posted November 23, 2020 Members Share Posted November 23, 2020 (edited) That doesn't entirely surprise me about A.J. Eric Nelsen was so good, and another of the Agnes Nixon poor little rich boys - he'd never have been cast on ABC, IMO. He always seemed fluid. @marceline your comments?

Members marceline Posted November 24, 2020 Members Share Posted November 24, 2020 I'll be honest that I feel a little vindicated. I know a lot of people saw Miranda and AJ as a couple but I never did. I always saw them as a sort of Jenny/Jesse friendship. There was so much dramatic potential there: AJ, Miranda, JR, Bianca, Marissa (remember her?), Dixie, Adam, & Erica. I miss Pine Valley so much right now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Jonathan Posted November 24, 2020 Members Share Posted November 24, 2020 Yeah AJ and Miranda were definitely besties. Question is, whom would you have paired AJ with? Maybe Sam Grey? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
