Members Steve Posted October 14, 2013 Members Share Posted October 14, 2013 LMAO! There's a huge difference between itching to get back to work & "hoping". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members greens_dupres Posted October 14, 2013 Members Share Posted October 14, 2013 Met him at Jerry verDorn's Stars & Strikes cancer event yesterday. He was pretty emphatic that season 2 would be happening (admitted there was no date though so not sure what that's worth but said "they" (PP? Ginger?) check in every so often). Really nice guy though- I had fun chatting with him and his lovely girlfriend. I think I'll have to be a Hunter fan going forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ellabelle Posted October 14, 2013 Members Share Posted October 14, 2013 Let's be realistic: Rob is a model on The Price is Right. It's nice exposure, but it requires no particular skill beyond staying buff. I have no doubt that he IS itching to get back to AMC because it's a real acting job that will hopefully build his career for him. I don't think his tweet is indicative of anything more than his own desire to get back to work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ~bl~ Posted October 14, 2013 Members Share Posted October 14, 2013 Do you have anymore tidbits to share from Sunday's bowling, greens_dupres ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members greens_dupres Posted October 14, 2013 Members Share Posted October 14, 2013 Nothing exciting as far as scoopage as I didn't want to push any actors for PP details (or push through some of the more aggressive fans haha). The OLTL party line seemed to be optimistic, hopeful, crossing fingers, etc. In sum, nothingg definitive but no one seemed to remotely indicate that it was dead in the water or anything like that. It sounds like they had a wonderful experience when they were filming though. The OLTL crew could not have been more gracious or lovely. I'm not super knowledgeable on GL but those actors seemed to really enjoy catching up with each other & their fans. Daniel Colvin was the only one repping AMC, except for past cast members Michael Lowry & Grant Aleksander. He's doing some modeling, auditioning and waiting for AMC to resume. As I said before, I will have to be a Hunter fan because he was just so nice & happy to be there. It sounds like he's good friends with Eric Nelsen. The following PP OLTL actors were present- JvD (of course- thanked everyone for coming, extremely classy, handsome man), Bob Woods (could not have been nicer), Kelley Missal (complete doll- just a sweet sweet girl), Barbara Garrick (beautiful in person), Sean Ringgold (just a delight to be around), Patrick Gibbons & Ron Raines. Oh and the actor who played Bruce. Jen Pepperman was there with her son as well- very gracious when I complimented the show but didn't offer up any info. Shenaz Treasury and Florenica were on the list to attend but weren't there. Past cast members- Gina Tognoni, Lenny Platt, Terri Conn, Austin Peck, Austin Williams, Tonja Walker (hilarious), Thom Christopher, Timothy Stickney (he looks younger than he did on OLTL in the 90s- really gracious), the little girls who played Bree Brennan & Jamie Vega. As someone who got hooked on OLTL in 1994 as a 7 year old, my mind was blown seeing Carlo Hesser, Alex Olanov, Bo Buchanan, and RJ Gannon all hanging out together and chatting with me. Ilene Kristen came briefly into the room for the actors but didn't come out and mingle with fans- someone said she had another appointment. Really glad I went- low-key for a fan event, good cause, actors could not have been nicer. Lunch was auctioned with KA & Chad Duell. It took them awhile to get a bid. Kind of funny.

Members allmc2008 Posted October 14, 2013 Members Share Posted October 14, 2013 Did you get the feeling that she can't tell you anything as in it is secretive or that she didn't no any information?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members greens_dupres Posted October 14, 2013 Members Share Posted October 14, 2013 I got the impression that she's a somewhat reserved person and was with her son and wasn't going to get into lengthy conversations with fans as she wasn't over on the bowling lanes. I recognized her and complimented the first season and her work. She was extremely gracious and thanked me for watching. I said I really hoped Season 2 would happen and she said she does too. I left it at that and let her get back to talking to people she knew. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members allmc2008 Posted October 14, 2013 Members Share Posted October 14, 2013 I always got the feeling she is reserved. Never got that from Ginger Smith. Ginger just seems busy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ~bl~ Posted October 14, 2013 Members Share Posted October 14, 2013 Not surprised about the KA/Chad Duell auction item as it is lunch in LA and some of the fans that attend never watched GH. I just thought it was nice that Jennifer Pepperman went though she knows most of the actors who attended as she worked for P&G for years. That sounds awesome as I'm totally jazzed that you got the opportunity and it was as laid back for such an event. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Vee Posted October 14, 2013 Members Share Posted October 14, 2013 Thanks for the update. I googled the event - it was surreal seeing new pix of Kelley Missal, JVD and RSW alongside Ilene and Austin Williams, and Sean Ringgold alongside Tim Stickney (who seems to have actually de-aged). At this point it feels a bit like worlds collide with the two OLTLs, though I'd love to see them all again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members greens_dupres Posted October 14, 2013 Members Share Posted October 14, 2013 Agreed. It would have been even more bizarre if the new PP OLTL actors like Rob Gorrie & Laura Harrier or Jwoww had been there. The event has buoyed my fledgling hopes a bit for seeing some of these actors again if for no other reason than they were just so nice that I want things to work out for them. I spent half an hour debating whether Timothy Stickney was in fact Timothy Stickney because he looked SO young. Eventually, we went up to him and asked how he's de-aged over the past 15ish years. His response- "network tv was stressful" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members marceline Posted October 14, 2013 Members Share Posted October 14, 2013 Greens, I completely forgot you were in NYC this weekend! So was I! I was in town for NY Comicon but Friday was basically my soap fan day. I had lunch with a friend who used to act on the soaps then met a bunch of OLTL fans for happy hour. Tim looks amazing, doesn't he? I can't tell you how much I want that man back on my TV screen. I know this is just me being a fangurl but IMO, if OLTL comes back the best thing they could do would be to bring back the Gannons, make them a "core" family and turn RJ into the new version of Asa.

Members Vee Posted October 14, 2013 Members Share Posted October 14, 2013 I got a warm fuzzy off Stickney being in the same spot with Jen Pepperman and the recent stars, yes. I would pretty much kill to see them pull a Dimitri Marick and Brooke on R.J. and Téa should OLTL return. But then we'd have to talk about Rachel and Kevin and we've all been all over that ad nauseum in numerous threads. I ran into Ilene Kristen once at a movie and saw a few other people around town while going about my day, but I've never said a word to any of them. I never want to bother people, and I'm not at all comfortable with going to fan events. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
