One of the best things Ron Carlivati ever did at OLTL was something I'd had percolating in my mind for a few years: Make Addie Cramer well. He did it, and he did with style - Pamela Payton-Wright's sane Addie burst back onto the scene as a vibrant, bubbly libertine dressed to the nines. She was wonderful.

They didn't use her nearly as much after the writer's strike of 2008 ended - they had planned for David Chisum's Miles Laurence to be revealed as Addie's son and Blair's brother just before the strike hit - but before the scabs took over, they penned one of the best scenes Dorian and Addie ever had, or ever will have, around 7:20 in this clip, where Addie cuts to the core about Dorian's issues with Viki. And I thought you weren't paying attention.

I'm still amazed they didn't ruin Addie out of spite. They certainly did their best to ignore her.

I don't know if you have already seen them, Vee, but someone on Youtube is currently uploading January 2004 videos.

I haven't, no. That was one weird period.

I think they loved Addie, but she fell through the cracks, probably for a variety of reasons.

Speaking of Pamela Payton-Wright, I just saw her in a L&O (mothership) rerun a couple of nights ago on either WGN or WE, from the 1993-94 season. She played the mother of a sociopath who killed her husband/his father and tried to make it look like an accident, and turned in a very credible performance.

Thanks for sharing those. I've always thought Susan Haskell is one of the great underrated beauties in the soap world. Not only is she a phenomenal actress (not for nothing does she have two Emmys under her belt), but she's got that gorgeous hair and such a beautiful face. No wonder Thorsten fell for her both on- and off-screen!!!

I have often wondered why Ernest Graves departed One Life to Live.

Did he choose to leave, or did the show hire Shepherd Strudwick away from Another World and then not renew the contract of Mr. Graves?

agreed! I hate the way Marty left.
