Re Modern Romances

The May 14-18th 1956 story was a modern day update of Shakespeare's  McBeth. Anne Howard Bailey was the writer.

Ross Martin as Macbeth; Valerie Bettis as Lady Macbeth; Ralph Bunker as Duncan; Boris Aplon as Malcolm; Ed Peck as MacDuff and Connie Francis as ballad singer.

I have been interested in substitute performers in roles for many years. I will share a list that I have (mainly from my own memory) later. My question is about an episode of As the World Turns around 1964 or 1965. Two sublstitute actresses played Penny and Ellen. The actress who played Penny may have been Abigail Kellogg, but I am not sure. I have no idea who played Ellen in the episode. Do you have any information on that?

    • Dani really got on my nerves. Her own life is a total disaster, yet she interferes with everyone else's. What could she possibly say to Ted that will change anything? That will help anyone? And as you said, while she bashes Bill, she wants him back -- all the while knowing who he is and who he's been for years. None of these scenes are pushing me to appreciate Dani. -- OTOH, Bill got some very good shots in at Dani. He won that face-off. -- June is just a ball of cliches and stereotypes to this point. I hope this goes somewhere. -- Martin flies off the handle much too easily, but I did appreciate that he grew calm and subdued, and even sad, with Ted. -- I'm glad Tomas is pretty, because damn, that acting. -- I'm glad Derek looks so good in tight jeans, because damn, that acting. -- LMAO at Leslie gaining entrance to Nicole's house because Nicole wanted the front door ajar so Door Dash could leave her takeout.

    • No, we would really do it.  Those pix were so famous! In early May 1970 Susan introduced Doug Williams to Julie. Her intent was evil. But, it backfired on her. Doug & Julie fell in love. Everyone knows the rest of this story.
    • Doesn't matter if its off topic. No need to point it out. Things will get back on topic soon enough. They always do . . . And I do love the off topic photos from the Bill Bell era!  So thanks.

          Thank you. I didn't realize there was confusion. You cleared it up.  It is more than crazy that this whole conversation is off-topic.
    • Sure!  And we promise, Mr Corday -- we will ridicule those wonderful old episodes daily on social media.   NOT!   
    • "To give her child a name" just means to make the child legitimate and be able to take the father's surname.  
    • I would say, Denise was the ONLY good thing about that insultingly ridiculous plot.  But all this took place near the end of Another World's "let's play everything for laughs" era.  Thank God that nonsense ended around 1988.  
    • We could take an OATH: We swear we will hate these episodes!  
    • Will I miss anything pertinent fast forwarding? I love that Kristina is so aghast someone could think she’s crazy after she just tried to kill someone. She’s basically saying my mom doesn’t know the full extent of my crazy, how dare she! It’s laughable. I genuinely don’t know what the show wants us to think of Kristina at this point,
