Have to agree re MM. The goody two shoes character and writing doesn't help but maybe a more dynamic actor would help Brandon lift his game also.
I found the song sequence a little OTT. First of all it should have been shorter and maybe the song fades out and just some music to accompany the montage.
I think it would have worked better if Anita had have been alone after everyone left and started tinkling leading into the song, with Vernon coming in observing and then joining her for a close moment.
Everyone standing around felt a little too much.
And that closing effect with the two blackscreens meeting was unnecessary. Just a fade out would have been enough.
But people were hating so bad on amc and the final year and the ratings sucked. Business wise they made the right call.
Oltl who even gained some ratings back and weren’t they higher as GH at one point is a decision and never understood.
Ann Williams was the first Maggie Powers on The Doctors but left to have a baby. Maggie was successfully recast so Ann picked up the role of Eunice (Jo's sister on Search for Tomorrow) and played that role for 10 years before being killed of in 1976. That led to her role of Margo on EON.
Looking at those totals it seems most contract actors are on a 1 or 2 week average guarantee. I assume contracts are still operating on 13 week cycles so you would have to know the particular actors contract starting date to work out their guarantee.
The question remains as to what actors listed as contract are actually recurring?
Bryton ?
Yep, that scene was at the conclusion of the Derek Thurston vs George Packard storyline, when Kay decided neither of them should run Chancellor. By the time she put Victor in charge, Victor had been on the show for months & months with his Rolls Royce, his ranch, and Newman Enterprises.
SONY released some Y&R "trivia cards" in the late 1980s, and one of the questions was "who brought Victor Newman to Genoa City?" The answer on the back of the card is "Kay Thurston, to run Chancellor Industries", and it's a wrong answer lol.
