Members DRW50 Posted August 26, 2012 Members Share Posted August 26, 2012 For many years a soap set was integral to a character - their history, their identity, to the point where some soaps made a big deal out of moving (GL having Fletcher say goodbye to the home he'd shared with Maeve, etc.) Is there any particular set you always associate with a certain soap character?

Members MrQuartermaine Posted August 26, 2012 Members Share Posted August 26, 2012 The Quartermaine Mansion & the Quartermaines on GH. That set is synonymous with them. As Jeanne Cooper always says in reference to the Chancellor Mansion, her set is the biggest. LOL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members JAS0N47 Posted August 26, 2012 Members Share Posted August 26, 2012 No, the Horton Living Room was in the first episode of "Days" on November 8, 1965 and still appears today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SFK Posted August 26, 2012 Members Share Posted August 26, 2012 The imposing black and white (and apparently expensive as hell) Clegg mansion was Capitol's iconic set. I wonder how it would have evolved over the years had the show lived even until the '90s. I don't think Erica Kane ever had a set better than her '80s pink and mauve Linden House. That's the iconic Erica Kane set to me. OLTL's Dorian had several sets and they were always just right for where the character was in life, in terms of priorities and even wardrobe. This penthouse set is my favorite: It didn't last long, but Sydney Chase's penthouse in The City was so pitch perfect straight out of the gate.

Members Mr. Vixen Posted August 26, 2012 Members Share Posted August 26, 2012 I thought they retired it when Frances Reid passed, after the Alice's death storyline? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Mr. Vixen Posted August 26, 2012 Members Share Posted August 26, 2012 Oh okay. Thanks. Sorry about that. I haven't been watching very much and somehow missed that. Though now that you mention it I think I did catch that the other day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted August 26, 2012 Author Members Share Posted August 26, 2012 One of the soap sets I always associate with a character is Jack's apartment on Ryan's Hope. He got it when he was a young man, his first home, and he never wanted to leave, because it represented everything about him. Through marriage, separation, reconciliation, being widowed, raising a child, he never left that apartment. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vhd806dnnA8 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2xjNepJjeY4&feature=channel&list=UL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Paul Raven Posted August 26, 2012 Members Share Posted August 26, 2012 For the majority of the last 30 years Jack Abbott has resided in the family home. Am I right in saying that he lived at the ranch when married to Nikki? I don't recall her living at the Abbott mansion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted August 26, 2012 Author Members Share Posted August 26, 2012 He lived at the ranch, yes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
