ALL: Soap Stars - Where are they now?

It's a small part but it was good to see her again. The funny thing is that the show was playing on my computer and was doing something else then suddenly I heard that alto voice of hers and instantly recognized it before seeing her on the screen.

Anybody else seeing the late Frank Maxwell (Dan Rooney, GH) popping up on that Optimum Cable commercial?

[Paul Raven]

Not a soap star but a behind the scenes person...

 

Fran Sears, who had a short stint as one of the many EPs who tried to revamp Loving during its run, has returned from obscurity at age 70 as a producer on Hulu's 'The Handmaid's Tale' which is getting rave reviews.

Her producing partner had rights to the book, so suddenly they had some leverage in the community.

Wow. She's aged horribly.

[DRW50]

She didn't look that way a few years ago - I wondered if she'd been ill.

Congrats to Kassie and Eddie. I hope they show up in something good soon. 

 

I still miss the old SOD covers (and actual photoshoots) but aside from the garish bit at the bottom that's not a bad effort.

I saw the one where she comes down the stairs and says "I can walk again!" and the guy responds "Go back to your room, Susan Lucci".

Yeah, that is a pretty funny line.

[Vee]

That's hilarious.

This is not more of a "where are they now?" because, well, we know where they are, but Deidre Hall (Marlena - DAYS), Martha Madison (e Belle - DAYS) and Lauren Koslow (Kate - DAYS) did a quick cameo-spoof on NBC's sitcom "Great News" this week.
