Members ReddFoxx Posted February 4, 2014 Members Share Posted February 4, 2014 By that, I mean, what characters have had recasts appear rather quickly after the previous actor's exit? With David Tom taking over as Billy so quickly after Billy Miller's last appearance, I became curious about other situations of quick turnover times with recasts.

Members chicklitsandfantasies Posted February 4, 2014 Members Share Posted February 4, 2014 Quite a lot of recasts have happened right away. The DT/BM thing wasn't quick at all. Some recasts have happened in the same episode! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members lovely_m Posted February 4, 2014 Members Share Posted February 4, 2014 I think Babe (Alexa Havens) went to give her mom a hug and when she come out of the hug it was her recast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members AMCHistory Posted February 4, 2014 Members Share Posted February 4, 2014 That scene still makes me laugh so much! I believe that one of the Anne Tyler recasts on All My Children was a kiss and switch as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members applcin Posted February 4, 2014 Members Share Posted February 4, 2014 When GL recast Michelle Bauer from Rebecca Budig to Joie Lenz it was at the point where she killed Mick Santos, who was trying to rape her. So they shot the same scene twice. One show ended with RB doing him in, the next show replayed the scene with JL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted February 4, 2014 Members Share Posted February 4, 2014 I think Mark Valley/Steve Wilder was another that happened in the space of a scene. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members All My Shadows Posted February 4, 2014 Members Share Posted February 4, 2014 Surely this is the winner, or rather it's tied with any other similar scenes. And of course, in 1959, Peggy McCay's Vanessa became Audrey Peters' Vanessa on Love of Life in a matter of one episode -- Van's wedding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members John Posted February 4, 2014 Members Share Posted February 4, 2014 Then there is Mason on SB. Mason gets punched as Terry Lester & falls down. When he gets u after the break, its Gordon Thomson as Mason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members YRfan23 Posted February 4, 2014 Members Share Posted February 4, 2014 Most recasts on Passions started the day after the previous actor's last episode..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members jo.frank88 Posted February 4, 2014 Members Share Posted February 4, 2014 I don't think any recast can beat Mark Valley/Steve Wilder as Jack Deveraux recast on Days... the transition happened in the SAME scene.. no commercial break or anything. Camera was on Mark Valley in the shower with Jennifer, camera cuts away to Jennifer, and then cuts back to Jack played by a new actor! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cheap21 Posted February 4, 2014 Members Share Posted February 4, 2014 Its really not that uncommon for recasts to take over the next day. As mentioned, the quickest would be AMC's Babe who changed actresses mid episode Please register in order to view this content Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Paul Raven Posted February 4, 2014 Members Share Posted February 4, 2014 For the record ,on Love of Life it was Bonnie Bartlett who was replaced as Vanessa by Audrey Peters. Peggy McCay left a few years earlier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
