Why is JZ listed as Lana Jackie McClain Zeman? Just curious.

Her OLTL character was named Lana McClain.

Her OLTL character was named Lana McClain.

I wasnt sure but thats who i heard she played on OLTL which is why i kiind of find it odd that she was listed as a weird mix of her OLTL character and her real name.

Thanks for clearing that up

May 1991 Weekly. I promised I'd post some Bill Timoney columns, and this one is very timely, as it's about Geary's return as Bill Eckert.

A few weeks ago, Antenna TV aired the episode of Too Close for Comfort where Monroe falls in love with Jackie's co-worker who (naturally) turns out to be a man borrowing his sister's identity (because it's easier to get a leg up in the fashion industry as a woman than it is as a raging hetero like this guy... I'm just gonna leave that plot point alone for right now, maybe later in the yet to be created TCFC thread). At any rate, it was obvious that this was no flash in the pan role for this gentleman, he reminded me of the men my parents described when they saw La Cage in Vegas. I Googled him, Christopher Morley, and sure enough, I remembered him from Bachelor Party in another female impersonating role. I was surprised to see that he'd done the same in a recurring role as a bartender on GH in the classic Luke and Laura era. Do any of you guys remember him? OLTL did the same thing in the '90s with Wendy the bartender.

Ah, yes, he was Sally Armitage, I think, during the big "Love on the Run" story for Luke & Laura.

Not just with Wendy, though. Remember when Charles Busch (that's his name, right?) appeared as a modeling agent named Peg Barlow (?) one summer when Jen Rappaport was in NYC? I don't know why, but I felt as if that story was Lorraine Broderick's.

Ah yes, the playwright. As a matter of fact, Robin Strasser starred in his play, The Tale of the Allergist's Wife at Papermill Playhouse. Linda Lavin created the role on Broadway.

Time for a "Why is half of PC suddenly dead and who is responsible?!" story.

I second that

I nominate Sally Armitage for the job.

Sorry if this has been posted. I have never, in my life, seen this!!

I didn't know where else to put this, but I stumbled upon a local article from a North Carolina publication that was published a few months ago where they interviewed Nancy Curlee and Stephen Demorest (most famous for being HW's of GL).

Anyway, Nancy says she was offered the HW position at GH in 1996. I assume this was to replace the Labine's, but she declined (even though, apparently, she was consulting for GH and AMC in 1995) due to being pregnant with her third child.

Anyway, I wonder how different the show would have turned out, we may never have gotten Guza at all. Does anyone remember anyone else being mentioned in the press at the time as possible replacements for the Labine's? It interesting that ABC apparently wanted Curlee, but went with Guza (paired with Karen Harris) when they couldn't get her. Or it could have been they wanted Curlee to replace Guza (as Guza left in late 1996 to do Sunset Beach), but no idea on the timing...
