Does anyone remember this short lived U.S. version of the Australian series ? I read the aussie series was very racy with explicit scenes. There is a quick promo for the U.S. version at the start of this episode of Card sharks from 1980.

What I remember is that actress Betsy Palmer and Christine Jones were in the cast.

It would be interesting to see some episodes surface along with A New Day In Eden. Someone had to have a VCR running.

ALL: Soap stars who reportedly didnt get along on set which soap actor feuds were real and which were just fan rumors

I thought the rumour was Suzanne stayed friends with him after the break up and took his side. I’ve never heard about an affair.

A few months ago, Suzanne was interviewed for about an hour on the Soapy podcast. Although she didn't mention Deidre, she did tell a story about some resentment with other actors. She shared that when she was diagnosed with myasthenia gravis in the mid-1980s, her appearance changed and two or three of the other actors made derogatory remarks about it. Suzanne also admitted she still harbors a grudge about it, and she doubts forgiveness is in the future. Could this be the cause of the current issue between Suzanne and Deidre? I'm sure Suzanne's interview is still available, if anyone is interested in listening.

LOL!!
Yeah, I don't think he would've been as successful at AW as he was elsewhere. For one thing, NBC was gonna NBC, and P&G was gonna P&G. There's no way Douglas Marland would have enjoyed the kind of support there that he had at ATWT or GL. And for another, aside from its' longtime, core audience, I really do believe most of the rest of the industry and viewers had just written off AW, expecting it to be cancelled sooner or later.

Wasn't there also the rumor that Suzanne allegedly had an affair with Deidre's now-ex-husband?
If I were Dee, I wouldn't care one whit about that. As long as he was out of MY house, he could have all the cookies he wants, lol.

AW may have already been on its last life but I think he could have been a good fit.
(he and JFP probably would have been fireworks though)

Maybe. You aren't the first person to bring up that idea. It seems silly though. I doubt Suzanne had anything to do with Dee/Drake's firing and they were brought back fairly quickly anyway. The show did use Maggie more back then, but even if Deidre was mad about that-get over it! It was a decade ago.

Speculation, but could it have something to do with (or exasperated by) the aftermath of Marlena & John being written out for a few years in the late 2000s? Rogers' screentime shot up in that era and I remember hearing good things about her work. Whereas Maggie barely qualified as a character from when Hall returned in the 90s until then.

I'd say the same about Susan Lucci's issues with SMG. In fact, I'd blame two people for that mess: 1) SMG's mother, who allegedly told anyone and everyone that SMG/Kendall was going to be the next Erica Kane; and 2) Christopher Goutman, who, as one of AMC's directors, allegedly encouraged SMG to say or do something in a scene with Lucci that was unscripted and without Lucci's prior knowledge or approval.

I do believe that Douglas Marland would've left ATWT at some point, either to work on his own soap, or to try and salvage AW.
