Ex-Y&R Star Tackles Social Issue In Primetime

monicapotter-thumb-250x274-31568.jpg

Monica Potter, who was Y&R's first Sharon back in 1994, is dealing with a social issue storyline on the primetime serial PARENTHOOD. Her character, Kristina Braverman, has been diagnosed with breast cancer and while the ordeal is understandably difficult it's also bringing her and her husband Adam (played by DIRTY SEXY MONEY's Peter Krause) closer together.

"It's an interesting dynamic that we play between them," Jason Katims, executive producer, tells Soaps In Depth. "Adam is somebody that we've seen as the 'go-to' person or the rock of not only his nuclear family, but also his extended family. Ultimately, [this disease is] something that deepens their connection with each other."

"I can't wait for those little moments that [happen] between them," adds Potter. "[As] the cancer progresses or gets better or doesn't — whatever the storyline is — I love the moments between [Adam and Kristina] so much. It's just ridiculous how much I feel like [Peter's] my husband. And he has said the same thing. It's kind of cool to work with someone where you just finish each others' sentences."

PARENTHOOD airs on NBC at 10:00 pm EST on Tuesdays.

I love the show "Haven" and I was just watching my tape of the 9/28 show and kept telling myself I know this girl, thinking she looks like Rebecca Herbst but I knew it wasn't her. Well, it blew me over when I looked online and found out it was Bree. The hair color threw me off and I just didn't put it together. She's actually playing a shrink. I wonder if the color change was because the show's lead, Emily Rose, has blonde hair. I like it, it keeps me from seeing Jessica Buchanan (obviously) and that's a good thing.

    • Yep. Access to the Vault works fine but upon downloading attempts an error message pops up.   Maybe it is just a temporary glitch.

    • Downloading isn't working at all.
    • I'm pretty sure this ep is  from Dec 73 From the Daytime Serial Newsletter Ian and Valerie Northcote are deeply concerned over Laurie's  life being increasingly dominated by hallucinations and fantasies about Georgina, the former owner of the house the Reddins recently bought and are now living in. Doreen Post (Linda Purl) was involved in that story .Perhaps she was going to be revealed as Georgina's daughter? Wonder how that story evolved and whether it was wrapped up before cancellation? and thanks to @skylark

    • Many thanks to @skylark and @DRW50!
    • Thank u so much! I love that show and the more I see of it the more I want to find more of it even if it’s just in script form. But that house and especially the room looked like Victoria Winters room from dark shadows lol  this was great find! Thanks 
    • I genuinely thought when they said she had been throwing up, we were going to get a pregnancy story. I’m actually not convinced we aren’t. Especially the way she and Doug danced around her own infidelity.
    • Shouldn't it be the other way? I don't think Taylor Hayes is playing Rebecca Budig.

    • And the most detailed discussion I've seen from an industry figure about some of JFP's worst choices as a producer (steamrolling over writers) was from another woman, Megan McTavish.
    • IMDb is definitely incorrect, because the final week of episodes in 1974 is uploaded to Youtube in audio form, and Mark and Laurie are there until the very end. The last episode shows Mark going back to the priesthood. I looked at the newspaper and the earliest reference to their house being haunted by Georgina is in December of 1973. This is dated Dec 14, but this same synopsis ran in the papers until the end of December in other publications. So it must have been within those last 3-4 months. I think Stephanie Braxton joined around 1969-1970 so that's probably right. I saw it stated in other newspapers that David Gale joined around September 1972.
