Members SFK Posted June 3, 2011 Members Share Posted June 3, 2011 Nice. And I'd never seen a candid shot of Ernie Graves. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted June 3, 2011 Members Share Posted June 3, 2011 For some reason he reminds me of Dolph Sweet (I don't know why). I can never remember who Millee Taggart was on this show. I guess the guy beside Lee Warrick was the first Tim Seigel? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SFK Posted June 3, 2011 Members Share Posted June 3, 2011 I can see the Dolph thing, I guess in this pic in particular. Yeah, I know MT's name but not the details of her career and always think of her as someone who works bts. Lee was no relation to Ruth, right? Her name kind of makes me brain fart, I think Lee Remick. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted June 3, 2011 Members Share Posted June 3, 2011 No relation. I always feel disappointed that we know so little about the Siegels and that they just disappeared. I wonder how fans at the time felt, if the years and years of Julie's sexual hangups got on their nerves. Millee, aside from the writings stints, is best known for being Janet on Search for Tomorrow for most of the 70's. I just don't know who she was on OLTL. I don't know that much about Tim either pre Tom Berenger. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Paul Raven Posted June 5, 2011 Members Share Posted June 5, 2011 (edited) Vinnie got a job with a trucking company and met Millie Parks(Millee Taggart) who worked there. Unbeknownst to Vinnie, Millie was helping the mob by getting Vinnie to transport drugs across state lines without his knowing it. But soon Millie started to fall in love with Vinnie and found it impossible to hurt him. When Vinnie discovered the truth, he found he still loved her and asked her to marry him. Millie could not go through with the wedding and left town. Edited June 5, 2011 by Paul Raven 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DRW50 Posted June 7, 2011 Members Share Posted June 7, 2011 emanating from the tribe. At 43, Lee is still fertile fantasy material. But he is not as I remembered him. In fact, if a third party hadn't introduced us, I might have walked right on by. Funny how people age, while memories of them don't. It was hard for me to make the connection - this man was newspaperman Joe Riley on One Life to Life, not private eye Dave Thorne on Surfside Six. I suppose I might have felt relieved because this meant I would be free of debilitating symptoms of adolescent lovesickness. But I didn't. I was disappointed that I was unable to recapture that silly, crazy, lovely once-familiar feeling. I'd seen him on One Life to Live and therefore knew otherwise, but I'd gone to meet Lee expecting him to look as he did back in his Hollywood days, and my pajama party days, anyway. Don't get the wrong idea. Lee happens to be more stunning now than ever. Like fine wines, most men seem to improve with age, and Lee is living proof. The years had not changed his basic feelings about marriage one iota, however. To my surprise, I discovered that Lee is still what is referred to as an eligible bachelor, although he isn't all that eligible because he's not too keen on the institution. When I asked Lee if he thought he might get married one day, he tried to dismiss the subject with a joke. "Why should I get married, when I walk with a stoop naturally," he cracked. Lee then noticed my no compendre expression and explained, "You know, the burdens of marriage..." Lee was a bit evasive. "marriage in whose eyes? The church? The state? Who's gonna tell me? I think committment is a very personal thing. I'm too much of a free thinker to be told how I should make my commitments." A little research turned up these remarks, made 11 years ago to a TV Radio Mirror reporter: "I like women and I date a lot - but casually. I don't like to be tied down." Then a little further on in the story, "Sure, I'd like to be married someday. I'm no nut who wants to live alone forever. Lots of times, I think I'd like to get married right now." Still further on, Lee used a subject-changing tactic that he was to use 11 years later with me. "Besides, the community property laws in this state (California) scare the devil out of me!" he joked. Eleven years ago, Lee might have called himself marriage shy, a term which sounds like an infectious disease. And with the aid of hindsight, it seems he felt compelled to sound amenable to the idea of marriage - in the future, mind you. Today he calls himself a free-thinker and doesn't feel the necessity to reassure the whole world that, yes, don't worry, he'll get married one day. Interesting. I happen to think Lee would still be described as marriage shy were it not for the fact that kids today, by refusing to have their disdain for the statistically not very successful institution dubbed a hang-up, have vindicated the older hold-outs from other generations. Lee was simply ahead of his time. For a free-thinker, however, he has some mighty old-fashioned ideas about permissiveness in the media. "I think all this sex that is bombarding us is revolting and terribly damaging," he proclaimed. "I think we fantasize enough, we don't have to be encouraged to do it more. And I'll tell you that when I take a lady to the movies or to the theatre I don't like to see nudity because I would like to be able to stimulate my mate myself. I don't want her stimulated by someone she sees on screen or on stage. Then I'm just a plaything. I think all this permissiveness brings sex down to a very cheap level. People will soon start thinking of sex as just a commonplace function and it will lose a lot of its beauty. "And I'd never act in a play or film that involves nudity. No way. I've been offered about eight things over the last few years that I've refused to do for that reason. I'd take my shirt off, but I won't take my pants off. I know everyone seems to be doing it these days, but that's exactly what I object to. If some people want to see even real hard-core pornography, let them. However, there has to be some freedom of choice. What I object to is being bombarded with this everywhere I turn. When I'm getting into a cab with a lady, I dont't want her to have to see a bus go by with a half-naked lady on the side advertising soda pop. This permissiveness in the media seems to be everywhere we turn." These do not sound like the words of a free-thinker, do they? But on second thought, Lee's attitude isn't exactly calculated to win him friends in the entertainment industry. And that industry is supposedly based on giving the public what it wants, so Lee's opinion on this matter would seem to be a minority one. Sounds like free thinking to me, after all. Lee always says what he feels, even if that means putting himself in a less than glorious light. By this point in the interview, I already knew that. And yet, when he said, "I see myself as a puppet, not as an actor. An actor is someone like Paul Scofield, or George C. Scott," I had to object. But while I played the adoring fan to Lee's humble hero, it became apparent that no amount of protests on my part would convince this fine actor, who had starred on the London stage for many years and in over 25 films in Europe, that he was anything but a tool, albeit a finely honed one, but just a tool nonetheless. "I'm simply a yeoman," said Lee, refusing to boast. "And the secret of my success? I had the ability to hang on a little bit longer than some people." And the secret of Lee's happiness is his ability to derive satisfaction from whatever he does. But the important word here is "does." Lee is a doer. "I don't read, watch television or go to movies," he insisted. "There's time for that when I'm dying off. Right now I don't want to live my life vicariously. And I never want to become involved in one thing to the exclusion of everything else. I love to act, but believe me when I say I'm enjoying talking to you just as much as I would enjoy doing a scene from a fine play." Before I could swoon, Lee then ticked off a list of activities he would also equally enjoy engaging in - sculpting, playing polo, flying his own plane and collecting antiques, to name a few. Lee's ability to enjoy a wide variety of endeavors, in fact, is really the very reason he is an actor today. It was while working for the BBC as a technical designer after he'd completed his studies in fine arts at the Ontario College of Art that Lee literally stumbled into an acting career. As a favor, he'd gone to pick up a check for one of the actors at his agent's office. The next day, the agent called and suggested he try out for a part in Death of a Salesman. Lee had never studied acting and had never even thought about becoming an actor, but it wasn't necessary for the agent to say, "Try it, you'll like it," to convince Lee to audition. It was a new experience, and Lee liked new experiences. So, he tried it and he liked it and the rest is, as they say, history. - Rose Linder 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members BKuzak Posted June 10, 2011 Members Share Posted June 10, 2011 I guess Viki is just being called, "Ms Lord" now. The doctors at Saint Anne's addressed her as that today. It's weird because even when she divorced Clint, she still called herself Mrs. Buchanan until she married Sloan. I guess she just wanted to put the whole Charlie/Echo thing behind her for good. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted June 10, 2011 Members Share Posted June 10, 2011 I have a lot of issues with her going back to "Lord." I wish she had taken her mother's maiden name. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members BKuzak Posted June 11, 2011 Members Share Posted June 11, 2011 I know this is confusing but Sam is the son that current Todd had with Margret right? So if old Todd turns out to be the real Todd, then Sam wouldn't even be his son. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
