GH: Classic Thread

That's what I figured, that SOD was just grabbing random info.  Which is why I said "I have no idea if that is accurate or not".

Another January 1967 episode (we now have 3 available). This has the Phil/Audrey story that was discussed a few pages ago by @Dion.

This is also the first time I've seen Catherine Farrar as Polly. Her scene is at about 15 minutes.

My goodness...

All I can say is she plays the scene like someone who was just picked off the street. On a show that often has good acting I was a bit thrown. I can see why she didn't last long. Was she better as Julie on DAYS?

Who is playing her sleazy professor?

That Phil recast isn't bad.

[DRW50]

I think that's Robert Hogan, later the last Vince on AW and a Banner employee on '90s OLTL. He's good, although I don't think he has the sexuality Phil tended to have.

The uploader mentioned that Farrar's Polly is in some of the December 66 episodes, which I haven't gone through yet. Sorry if I gave the impression she was just debuting. Maybe she's better there...

It is.

Ah yes, this was the episode that was on WOST back in 2004.

And Ben Andrews is playing Bob Chandler, the sleazy professor who basically told Polly he was some sort of polyamorist in an open marriage, but Polly later found out his wife knew nothing of this arrangement. As a result, Polly ended up leaving to go to art school in Chicago in March but came back in June after her father's health took another turn for the worse. Presumably this is when the recast to Jennifer Billingsley happened.

Thanks for the extra details. Young women on soaps in the '60s and '70s were constantly in peril from college professors...

I didn't know Ben Andrews was on Return to Peyton Place. I wonder how he was. 

Sad that he died so young (not the only Next Step Beyond guest star to do so).

Brooke Bundy in the Aerobic Dance commercial at the 5:02 mark.

That was entertaining. She's a real mover. Better than I'd ever be. She suited that more than she did playing Diana.

I was wondering what were some Of Rebecca Herbst's Stronger moments as Elizabeth in the past 9 years, I can't seem to find any that showcased her talent in this period, the last hurrah seems to have been The John Doe/Jason Storyline, the rest seemed like she was the staircase to others only

[carolineg]

I thought she did decent work with some of the Franco death stuff and the aftermath.  She also did well with her mother and father coming back.  The storylines were awful and I don't have a lot of nice things to say about them, but I though RH was good acting wise.  I don't think any of this was Elizabeth's character's stronger material though.  She's been holding up lesser characters for years.

Question: does anybody know what scenes Cynthia Watros submitted as Nina for her first Emmy nod for the role in 2022??? I tried looking but couldn't find anything
