Members AdelaideCate007 Posted February 14, 2013 Members Share Posted February 14, 2013 Maybe. Honestly, she was so forgettable I can't even remember anything about her character. If she was anybody important, she would have gotten an angel statue in Angel Square like Luna did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Nate4 Posted February 14, 2013 Members Share Posted February 14, 2013 I know most people won't agree with me, but Tamera Braun. She isn't a longtime actress, but I love her! She's my favorite Carly and I enjoyed her on AMC/DAYS. She's one of my MANY soap crushs;)<333 Lol! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members katie_9918 Posted February 17, 2013 Members Share Posted February 17, 2013 Unfortunately, I never got to see Mary Stuart on Search For Tomorrow, but I knew the instant I saw her as Meta Bauer on Guiding Light that GL was lucky to have snagged her for such a legacy role. You don't have many people involved with the soap genre nowadays, even the old-timers (looking right at you, Anthony Geary, however much of a legend you might also be), who "get it." Mary Stuart, Charita Bauer, Rose Prinz, they all got it, along with a multitude of other old-time great soap legends. I'd put Beverlee McKinsey and Christopher Bernau on this list as well, along with Susan Lucci (of course), Erika Slezak, David Canary, Don Stewart, and Susan Flannery. Douglas Marland as well. I'm not as big a fan as most, but there's no denying his contribution to the daytime genre. If writers like him and Bill Bell and Irna Phillips were still around, none of these hacks nowadays would have jobs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members allmc2008 Posted March 11, 2013 Author Members Share Posted March 11, 2013 I think the legacy of Irna Phillips is not restricted to Daytime but Primetime as well. She created Another World. Dallas was based on the Ewings of AW. Dallas sparked the Primetime soaps of the 80s and influenced the prime time soaps from years to come. Also, wasn't ATWT the inspiration of UK's Coronation Street? Then Peyton Place's format was modeled after Coronation street? If so I believe Irna changed broadcast media across the world as well. Regardless, I think if all the daytime soaps ended tomorrow and in 10 years from now they are nothing but a distant memory her legacy would still be stronger than ever before.
