Members watson71 Posted March 3, 2018 Members Share Posted March 3, 2018 Vicky & Marley, Another World 1984-86- Ellen Wheeler 1986- Rhonda Lewin (Vicky only) 1987-1991- Anne Heche 1991-1999- Jensen Buchanan (mainly Vicky) 1998-99 Ellen Wheeler (Marley only)- Marley was disfigured in a hospital fire- ending the identical twin storyline- not to mention that Marley suddenly grew overnight as Wheeler was much taller than Buchanan 😂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SoapDope Posted March 3, 2018 Members Share Posted March 3, 2018 Tom Hughes on ATWT was played by so many actors over the years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Paul Raven Posted March 3, 2018 Members Share Posted March 3, 2018 Re Patti on SFT I guess this was an example of TPTB realizing the importance of that character, even though the continual recasts must have annoyed some viewers at the time. They finally got a successful recast with Leigh Lassen and she was frontburner for several years. Finally Patti was rested after over 20 years in the story, then briefly recast with Tina Sloan. Then for several years it was as though Jo didn't have a daughter, before Patti returned. Dorian OLTL Nancy Pinkerton Claire Malis Robin Strasser Elaine Princi Robin Strasser Jamie AW Tim Holcomb Richard Bekins Stephen Yates Laurence Lau But then Jamie was forgotten for the last 7 or so years.

Members All My Shadows Posted March 3, 2018 Members Share Posted March 3, 2018 Many of AMC's original characters went through several recasts until TPTB found the right matches. Ruth Warrick and Hugh Franklin played opposite a menagerie of people playing their children and grandchildren the first couple of years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Wendy Posted March 3, 2018 Members Share Posted March 3, 2018 You forgot Russell Todd following Lau. But that's okay. He wasn't that memorable, IMO. All I recall is, he was in a brief romance with Heche's Marley and then that drip, Kelsey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members titan1978 Posted March 3, 2018 Author Members Share Posted March 3, 2018 I forgot about Dorian. I’ve only seen Strasser and Princi in the role, often heard great things about Nancy Pinkerton though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members vetsoapfan Posted March 3, 2018 Members Share Posted March 3, 2018 The endless recasts in the role of Patti on SFT drove me around the bend. Leigh Lassen was the best of the bunch, IMHO. Tina Sloan was miscast; far too old. Dixie Carter also subbed as Dorian while Pinkerton was on maternity leave, and she was pretty good too. OLTL was lucky with Dorian. They never had a dreadful actress in the role. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members SFK Posted March 4, 2018 Members Share Posted March 4, 2018 And Ellen Barber subbed for Robin in the '80s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Dr Neil Curtis Posted March 4, 2018 Members Share Posted March 4, 2018 Lexie Brooks-Carver. Renee Jones would be the most memorable one, though I enjoyed the one who was always paired with Drake Hogestyn. I thought they were going the Lexie/Roman at one time.

Members Fevuh Posted March 4, 2018 Members Share Posted March 4, 2018 Blake, Guiding Light. I liked everyone who played her... Heather Rattray was awful as Lily on ATWT....just Awful. Not Lily at all. I remember it being so jarring when she appeared on the show. She would have made a great Snore-toria on Y&R though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Dr Neil Curtis Posted March 5, 2018 Members Share Posted March 5, 2018 Are there any clips of Dixie Carter as Dorian. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members amybrickwallace Posted March 5, 2018 Members Share Posted March 5, 2018 Dr. Mike Powers on The Doctors was played by a whopping TEN actors (the show was on a little less than 20 years)!! The only Mike who lasted more than a year or two was Peter Burnell, who played the part from 1968-1973 - and they should have kept him!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
