Members DRW50 Posted January 29, 2020 Members Share Posted January 29, 2020 Thanks. Appreciate it. The sad thing is from what I've read by the time Marj came in the writing was shoddy and the character never had much value, aside from a brief return several years later. What a waste of Mason's mother. Did Eggar and Dusay ever interact at AMC? I'll always think of Vanessa as Marj's crowning achievement. She had a lot of dumb stories, right from the start (I was never a fan of the mask storyline), but always spun them into gold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Vee Posted January 29, 2020 Members Share Posted January 29, 2020 (edited) Pretty sure Eggar's brief stint as Anna and Alex's supervillain mom was pre-Marj. Edited January 29, 2020 by Vee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Faulkner Posted January 29, 2020 Members Share Posted January 29, 2020 Gonna have to agree to disagree on that one! I liked Joan fine as a novelty, but Bev for me created a version that had so many layers (of course, some of that was better writing during Bev’s tenure).

Members Vee Posted January 29, 2020 Members Share Posted January 29, 2020 Fair enough. I'm fairly certain they shared no scenes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Wendy Posted January 29, 2020 Members Share Posted January 29, 2020 I remember her as the insane, yet cunning Pamela Capwell Conrad from the late, great soap, "Santa Barbara", mother to Mason (and Elena), But she had a long, full career in addition. May Ms. Dusay RIP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members John Posted January 29, 2020 Members Share Posted January 29, 2020 I dont believe so as well I believe all of SE's scenes were mostly with Finola & Hunt Block Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted January 29, 2020 Members Share Posted January 29, 2020 I still wish we'd seen something with Elena and Pamela. I need to watch more of that period - the whole killing Kelly story and the Kelly/TJ stuff kind of puts me off (and the Kelly recast). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DramatistDreamer Posted January 29, 2020 Members Share Posted January 29, 2020 Lisa Whelchel made a post about her former TV mom, a role for which I will always remember Dusay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted January 29, 2020 Members Share Posted January 29, 2020 (edited) Ironically, Marj didn't originate the role of Monica Warner either. IIRC, a blonde (forget her name) appeared as Monica during the first season. Yet, when you think of Blair's mom, you think of Marj. Also, unless I'm wrong, I think that (FoL) was the only time Marj ever acted with Nicolas Coster, another soap vet, who portrayed Blair's dad. (FoL sure did love their soap actors, lol.)

Members DramatistDreamer Posted January 29, 2020 Members Share Posted January 29, 2020 I really wasn't watching GL at this point but this is a touching sentiment. One post referred to Dusay as the "Recast Queen". I don't take it as a slight in any way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted January 29, 2020 Members Share Posted January 29, 2020 I was wondering if Lisa would say something. Glad she did. I wasn't that big on the Alex/Alan relationship (I hadn't seen the Bernau and Bev era at that point) but Ron and Marj had their moments. Probably the strongest was the leadup to Marj's 1997 exit.
