February 8, 201313 yr Member I still think ME is doing this right. There's only a few actors who are the bomb at double roles. And, IMO. Easton is one of them. So he's up there with David Canary, Julianne Moore, Kate Collins?
February 8, 201313 yr Member As someone else said, I think it's partly her ballet background--though sometimes it borderlines (or more than borderlines) on eating disorders, anyone who was even briefly int hat profession tends to strictly maintain that weight into old age--I say as a ballet geek. How I wish they had the whole Satan's Alley (!) dance routine finale from the Sylvester Stallone (!!) directed sequel to Saturday Night Fever, with music by Sly's brother as I guess the BeeGees were too expensive (!!!) she co-stared in online, but this is all I could find... (I didn't know Anna from GH, but when she came on as Alex/Anna on AMC I was thrilled to see her simply because of the camp classic that Staying Alive is) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vT79hKLyV98 Oh here it is http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FnijeAs0LjA That's interesting! Thanks for the info and vids!
February 8, 201313 yr Member This really dates me, but to be fair I was barely pubescent in the waning years of the disco era. Anyway, The first time I saw Finola on GH, I was like "it is the bad chick from Staying Alive!" I always remember the scene where she bit John Travolta after he kissed her.

FH's dancing in Stayling Alive was magical. She didn't neet John!
February 8, 201313 yr Member RH and LW seriously have such a natural chemistry together many soap pairings/potential pairings are lacking these days.. They really are great together. One of the best pairings Daytime has coughed up in years.
February 8, 201313 yr Member I was shocked I tell ya, shocked by how much chem they have. Todd has made Carly tolerable. I can't believe Connie didn't bother me yesterday, she's been toned down alot, KSu isn't chewing the darned scenery all the time
February 8, 201313 yr Member Granted, that's not hard to do when he plays John as a walking corpse. Just make your arms a bit more flamboyant, actually use facial expressions and it's clear to any viewer you're a different character! Definitely. (Before ME people get all up in my face I was somewhat joking above. But still I don't consider it the sign of a brilliant actor playing multiple roles when they are so different and one can be camped out--though it's not like he's going Connie crazy I suppose) Well I'm an "ME person" and I think you're right so I'll defend you against my fellow stans. I finally broke down and watched the clip of Caleb and Lucy. I gotta admit it was kind of fun. I'd forgotten how good ME is at playing demented, obsessed creepers and he was clearly enjoying himself. John McBain has become such a basic character, it must be fun to just let loose and bring the crazy. Of course it doesn't hurt that vampires have gone totally mainstream. Caleb would fit in perfectly on any number of shows we've seen since PC went off the air. (Alas Port Charles, you were ahead of your time.) The time is ripe for another supernatural soap. Maybe if PP is successful with OLTL/AMC, they'll launch a new one. I also see why Lynn Herring gets so much love (not that I disagreed with it mind you), I know nothing about Lucy and it took seconds for LH to make me give a damn about her and want to learn more.

I agree. It's nice to see ME enjoying himself these days. My only issue is the weave. I..just..can't. It's great to see Lynn Herring back on screen. Lucy is a hoot.
February 8, 201313 yr Member Lucy's return has been shockingly great. She's infused so much life into the show, it's as if Lucy were never gone. Lynne is great and slipped back into Lucy so effortlessly.
February 8, 201313 yr Member Ewww to Luke and Carly. She tells him she was just naked and asks what does he want. He says "just to lay eyes on your lovely visage" with some horny eyes "Heather Webber told AJ...why should I listen to anything after that" Good line. Man I have to say I hate her hair cut. It looked longer when it was longer. BTW, her dress was ugly too Connie and Tracy is so unexpected but made of so much win. I have to say Tracy leaking that story was incredibly stupid of her. WTF did she think was going to be the resolution to her? "....well not with the kidnapper here" Lucy looks like a bag lady The Todd stuff seemed final. Was today his final airdate? After that scene with Carly, I really want him to come back Sabrina gets MURDERED on Monday! Here's to hoping Caleb eats her, that annoying brat Edited February 8, 201313 yr by Cheap21
