ALL: Soap Stars - Where are they now?

What struck me was that, with the silver locs, Rowell and Kasi Lemmons now share a sort of sisterly resemblance, which takes me back to when both women once portrayed the same character on As The World Turns in the 1980s. Now, if Tiffani Caesar shows up with blonde-ish or silvery locs, I will fall out!

Autocorrect changed Lemmons to Lemons, so I changed it back!

Joe Bob Briggs and The Last Drive-In come through again for the soaps on Shudder: As part of tonight's Christmas charity telethon/horror movie marathon, they are showing the absolutely godawful "Ice Cream Man" from 1995, which features Clint Howard as a homicidal ice cream man, Olivia Hussey in a role she'd like to forget, the late Jan-Michael Vincent drunker than ever - and yes, OLTL/B&B/Y&R's immortal Andrea Evans as the vixen horny for the ice cream man's "hard pack". The last person I expected to see tonight by far.

The debut novel of Greta Lind (AMC - Kate Kennicott) "Split Open" came out earlier this year and a few of her close friends held a virtual launch party on Zoom that is now available on YouTube. There was a brief mention of her time on AMC and castmate Michael Brainard (AMC - Joey Martin) showed up also. (The two reunited recently in a 13-episode podcast/drama-series called The Ernie Pyle Experiment that Michael wrote, co-produced, and starred in. It was a finalist in the 2021 Audie Award of the Audio Publishers Association, Drama category.)

Unfortunately, I still remember the Joey/Emily Ann/Katie "triangle" very well.  When you're rooting for the mentally unhinged girl to off the sweet but bland nurse, you know the story ain't workin'.

Roslyn Sanchez ex Pilar ATWT will be co hosting New Year's Rockin Eve on ABC.

 

She's such a nice girl but she is one horrible actress. She never improved poor thing.

I never watched ATWT.  I don't know what Roslyn Sanchez' acting was like then.  She stars in the 2021 reboot of Fantasy Island and that's the first thing I've ever seen her act in -- and I think she does an excellent job in that.

Agreed.

It wasn't as if the character was fully formed or given much to do, besides be an appendage- a sister, then a girlfriend. Also, Pilar had the misfortune to be saddled with Mike Kasnoff, a character that was only as good as the romantic triangle that he was in.

I thought Roslyn Sanchez did fine with the material she was given. Perhaps she did not yet have the skills or artistic tools to rise above the material, like some actors but at least she left an impression and I always remembered her in the role, which is more than I can say of the actress who came after her in the role of Pilar.

Remember that Sanchez went from Miss Puerto Rico straight into the fast moving machine of daytime soaps, which, even experienced actors can sometimes struggled with. I don't have any negative memories of her in the role, only that it was a thin role to begin with.

Clayton Norcross (B&B) will be recurring starting in January on an Italian game show called Avanti Un Altro (Forward, Another). He'll be part of a rotating group of 6 people who sit at the side of the stage, 2 of whom end up getting chosen by players to ask themed questions.

I've never watched B&B but, since I have 2 Italian cable channels, I sometimes see B&B actors appear on various talk and game shows there.

    • I think you can find them here https://www.tumblr.com/tagged/OLTL What's there is recaps from SOD at the times it shows which is usually from way back up till 2003. Most if not all of this is due to Matt Smith who you may recall from his AW playlists on YoutTube. 
    • Party wardrobe color theme: Good Queen Nicole is in a solid gold gown. The other Dupree women (plus Smitty) are wearing shades of red/pink (with purple accents) -- Anita, Dani, Chelsea, Kat, in dresses. -- Smitty in white shirt and maroon jacket. (did not see Naomi?) "The help" Eva and Mona are in black. Antagonist queen Leslie/Dana in a black/gold gown. The men (except for Smitty) are wearing black. Ted - white shirt, black tie, black jacket. (Ted's jacket was shiny or velvet or a textured fabric - I couldn't quite tell, but the jacket color was solid black) Vernon - black turtleneck, white dress shirt over it, black jacket (no tie). Andre - black T-shirt, gold chain, black jacket. Martin - black shirt, black tie, black jacket. Dr. Carlton Fitzgerald - white shirt, black tie, black jacket. (did not see Jacob?) I didn't see Naomi and Jacob at the party, but perhaps they arrive later? The evening is not over yet.

      I enjoyed his scenes with Johnny. Both of their perspectives make perfect sense to me and are completely relatable. There’s no right or wrong person in this situation and I like that. LH  does pretty well when Tate is angry too, but I also liked the way that he comforted Johnny in the end. Days is finally remembering that they’re cousins. And, Johnny looked hot in the beginning   Btw, Johnny going to work for Xander? That could be interesting. And, also can cause some more animosity between him and EJ.  And again, Marlena/Belle were great. Scenes like theirs really seem to be commonplace under Paula/Jeanne and I couldn’t be happier that they are. It’s helps us get a much better understanding of these characters and why they do the things that they do and feel the way that they feel. Marlena supporting Belle was a bit of surprise, considering her insane reaction when she walked in on EJ and Belle, but I also feel that it’s totally in character for her, both as a psychiatrist and as Belle’s mother.  As for Sophia and Amy… I miss the first Sophia lol but I can’t help but think that Amy suddenly being so nice is foreshadowing of something. Either that, or Paula/Jeanne aren’t biased against her
    • @alwaysAMC Great mini-review as always.  That Gilly story is...certainly one I could not forget... I imagine a number of viewers were shocked with the temporary recast. It was revealed in the soap magazines, as was the news about Frank Beaty's breakdown, I think. I think Wolf had some statements or an interview at the time but very little. I wish someone could interview him. He did a good job under extremely tough circumstances.  For some reason I have a vague memory of him in the Marian getup but that's probably not right.  I'm glad you have appreciated the material with Susan after a shaky start. I always enjoyed her, and she was the only love interest I liked Nick with.

    • https://www.instagram.com/p/DJJTEW8J5EA/ 1989 Daytime Emmys Victoria Wyndham gives moving tribute to Douglas Watson, AW's Mac Cory Harding "Pete" Lemay created the character Mac Cory & then Doug Watson played him for 15 years. When Doug died on May 1st, 1989, it was a huge loss to the show, the other actors & also to the fans.

    • Jonathan Kellerman is definitely the most EON/Slesar-like writer in the business right now.  Unfortunately, he's almost 80 years old.  Interestingly, he has a son (Jesse Kellerman) who's about 45, who's been studying under him.  I believe what makes the Kellermans such effective mystery & crime writers is their background in psychology.  
    • I never understood the point of Marchetti. Summer left the show for a job there in Italy. OK. When she returned they had Jack buy the company. Why couldn't Summer have returned and simply stated it was not a good fit, she missed her home , family/friends etc It was absurd that this internationally successful fashion empire could just be bought by a US cosmetics firm at the drop of a hat. What was the point when they never did anything with it at all? Summer simply could have gone to work at Jabot. And wasn't there some nonsense about an offshhoot called Marchetti Home? Was Phyllis attached to that at some point? This show...
