This sounds like a fun cameo. I hope that there's some chance Nixon may be involved with OLTL once it starts on PP.

I hope they may also have her say something like, some of the Fraternity Row characters will be named Carla, Eileen, Cathy, Sadie, Anna, etc. It would be a way to remember the past without bringing anyone back, as they don't seem to be bringing any of the early actors back.

Nice! Always seemed like she preferred AMC but of course I want her to make an appearance

No idea what this Fraternity Row soap is, though. When was the last time it was on?

[John]

I wanna say 1991. Megan was an actress on the show as was Mari Lynn Dennison & Spring Skye. Spring hated Megan and they Vied for a Daytime emmy type of prize. Bo was the EP of Fraternity Row and When Snoop first guested in 2008 he said back in the day he did FR's music

[DRW50]

From about 1988-1990 Bo was producer of Fraternity Row, a soap filmed at Llanview University (they filmed a few scenes at Duke). Megan was the star, and various other characters, like Mari Lyn Dennison and Audrey Ames, were also actresses on the show. It was wonderful - you should look for some of the Daisy Awards, or the clips about Mari Lyn's stalker causing problems on the set, or the episode where Viki had to play a nurse.

That is a really cute idea!

It is cute. Didn't Rick ave a throwaway line the other day about Fraternity Row's failed vampire based spin off not making it past pilot stage?

Remember she played God on OLTL a few years back too...

*I'm not even gonna get into that "which show she prefered" thing *

[SFK]

I would never dream of putting words in AN's mouth, but I think while AMC is probably closer to her heart, I mean, she did create it first and had the longest creative relationship with it, I think it's possible that she's most proud of some of her early work on One Life, e.g., Carla and Sadie. Kind of like a research paper you aced and are really proud of versus a piece you wrote in creative writing that was just a joy to work on?

[EricMontreal22]

She certainly ALWAYS mentions the Carla story and often the Odyssey House story when asked about favorite stories...

I think Agnes loves "all her children" equally. It's just that she became less involved with OLTL because that particular show had outgrown her.

YAY!
