Members OLTL_fan Posted December 8, 2011 Members Share Posted December 8, 2011 I'm surprised about HBS being on there. RSW will probably be on there too then. Kassie isn't a surprise at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members alexisfan07 Posted December 8, 2011 Members Share Posted December 8, 2011 Yeah she surprised me too. I'd guess ES, RSW, HBS, KdP and some combo of KA, ME, JPL, BW, MA and JvD will be on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MissLlanviewPA Posted December 8, 2011 Members Share Posted December 8, 2011 Hope Kassie will drag James there, too! Well, maybe not drag him . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members OLTL_fan Posted December 12, 2011 Members Share Posted December 12, 2011 We said to keep checking back here for more OLTL alum announcements, and today we're very excited to announce that Bob Woods (longtime police chief Bo Buchanan) and Robin Strasser (Viki Lord's arch nemesis Dr. Dorian Lord) will both be appearing. http://theview.abc.go.com/blog/two-more-one-life-live-cast-members-added-our-tribute-show Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Erika Slezak 2. Robin Strassor 3. Bob Woods 4. Andrea Evans 5. John Loprieno 6. Kassie Depaiva 7. Florencia Lozano 8. Trevor St. John 9. Judith Light 10. James Depaiva Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SFK Posted December 13, 2011 Members Share Posted December 13, 2011 I like your list, and I guess TSJ and RH could be interchangeable, Todd fans would probably appreciate both. If Judy couldn't make it, or hell, even if she could, I'd love to reunite Ellen Holly and Agnes Nixon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted December 13, 2011 Members Share Posted December 13, 2011 I would like to see Michael Storm and Ellen Holly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members marceline Posted December 13, 2011 Members Share Posted December 13, 2011 Maybe I'm missing something but wasn't Ellen Holly horribly disrespected by the show? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SFK Posted December 13, 2011 Members Share Posted December 13, 2011 She was treated very poorly by Rauch, but Agnes Nixon maintains that her Clara/Sadie story is the one she's most proud of. She asked Ellen to appear along with Susan Lucci at her Hall of Fame induction to represent her work (Ellen declined, as she did an invitation to appear for the show's 25th anniversary), but she did appear in Agnes Nixon's Intimate Portrait.

Members DRW50 Posted December 13, 2011 Members Share Posted December 13, 2011 Yes, but I'd still like to see her interviewed about the show. I think Whoopi might ask some interesting questions, and it would be nice to see the ABC soaps politely called out for their ugly bigotry over the last few decades. She also has a very interesting life which I'd rather hear about compared to the rapists and their harem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members marceline Posted December 13, 2011 Members Share Posted December 13, 2011 I would too but it isn't going to happen on The View surrounded by OLTL's most rabid fans. None of those people give a damn about how Ellen Holly was treated or OLTL's racism. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted December 13, 2011 Members Share Posted December 13, 2011 When they had the AMC moves to California show, Whoopi asked questions she wanted that had little to do with the script, so I hoped the same could happen again. They wouldn't even need to talk about the way she was treated - I'd mostly just like to see her acknowledged, along with Michael Storm, as they both seem to be totally forgotten.

Members Vee Posted December 13, 2011 Members Share Posted December 13, 2011 I care about Ellen Holly, and I always have. I think it's a very glaring mark on the show that they have never redressed the wound at the heart of the show by disposing of the actress and the characters surrounding her own. Though Holly has twice refused to reappear or continue the character, the least that could have been done is to bring back the family itself with a new character or two, but sadly that's never happened, excepting JFP's brief flirtation with tokenism and Jared Hall. I would've asked her back once more for the end, even if she said no. It always ground my gears that any time the show had an anniversary or event in the last decade or so, they would trot out pictures and clips of the Carla Gray story and the Woleks, but utterly refused to deal in the issue that they have completely disposed of these characters on which many of their classic moments were built. Judging by recent pictures from an event here in New York she's still in decent shape despite being in, I think, her eighties. I'd love to see her appear on The View, but I highly doubt they would have even thought to ask. I'm hoping Judith Light sends a tape or something. Michael Storm, too.

Members marceline Posted December 13, 2011 Members Share Posted December 13, 2011 I agree that Storm should get some kind of acknowledgment, if not on The View then on the show. I just think its asking too much to want Ellen Holly to expose herself to that atmosphere. Nobody (other than Whoopi) would want to hear what she has to say. Those people want to see rainbows and unicorns, nothing else. Let everybody have their "Gone With the Wind" day. No need to mess it up with talk of "Roots." These fans don't care. They want to hear about the rapists and their harems. ETA: I will say that I would like it if Tim Stickney could be there even though I know that's impossible. There's something about the thought of Whoopi and Stickney on the same stage that just makes me think people would be looking for the fire exits. LOL! But really RJ and Dorian together again would be gold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
