I can't stand her. The way she treats everyone... The constant annoyed face she has... always ungrateful. Thank God she dies in the story. Thank God. She is like emotional vampire... drinks the energy of every scene. Spoiled little rich girl who did NOTHING to deserve the life she has and she doesn't appreciate. I HATE HER.

It’s been 30 years.

Joanna Johnson was that good though, to have the ability to play both sides of the coin. Johnson wanted to go and who could blame her? Who would want to play the endless triangles? It’s the reason why B&B burned through so many characters/actors in ways that took other longer soaps decades to begin to do.

I dont think so. Her overacting and same expression on face is really annoying. This is my opinion. I understand this is not a popular opinion... I just cant stand her. Even the acting is annoying. I also didnt like Karen.. the sister. She played her exactly the same. But I guess everyone on the show without Susan was not the best actors. They are just not that great. I love them... but the bad acting is obvious. The worst of course are Ronn Moss... the first Thorne... he is like a stupid Ken doll. Every scene with Ridge and Thorne is cringe. Susan Flannery saved the show... plus the good scripts from Bell. Thatäs what made it great.

I hate THE CHARACTER and I dont like the actress. Cant you read... are you good... 

Also why CANT I hate someone... a character that treats her husband like [!@#$%^&*]... goes after his brother non stop and is rude to everyone all the time. WHY.......I hate bad people. I hate this character. She makes my skin crawl. Please don't mix this with actors. The actress I find... to be bad... but I don't hate her. I can't hate someone I don't know.

Honestly these shows are great to channel hatred and bad feelings. Throw them at the screen. More power to you! As long as it doesn’t translate into online bullying - which is not the case - I’m all for it.

Also if SOMEONE again in this forum attacks Me personally for me having an opinion of something that IS NOT personally connected to YOU... IF YOU dare to ask me questions like "ARE U good"... that are PERSONAL.... I will take matters to the mods! I can freely EXPRESS my opinion about a  CHARACTER. Live your life and don't start personal overtone conversations with me!!!!!!! I dont know you and I dont care to know you. I am here to comment the character of Caroline Spencer... and you asking me if I AM GOOD... is not APPROPRIATE:

Exactly!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I like Tracy Melchoir as an actress, but I would've cast a name as Kristen. I find it so odd Kristen and Felicia remained gone for so long considering they were core characters. Seeing these early episodes, it's even more shocking Kristen never returned sooner when you consider how complicated her relationship was with Stephanie and her deep connection with Eric. Everything they've done with her character since the 2001 return is a disgrace and a waste of a potentially fiery character that could've shaken the canvas up.

    • Within the Dupree family, I predict Vernon/Anita will be conflicted about what to do about Bill and his role in the whole Ted/Silk Press Sheila situation... especially since Bill knows where the particular bone about Martin is buried. Dani, Chelsea, and Naomi's reactions to what Bill possibly did isn't hard to guess.. but Hayley's reactions will be interesting to hear.  Especially given her recent pregnancy scare.. she might not be so much on Bill's side, or she'll totally surprise us and be totally on Bill's side.   Either way, I think Martin's secret will be the main focus in May sweeps.. with the fall out of the Eva secret playing out in the background... while the Joey/Vanessa/Doug thing continues to boil/develop.
    • Hotel was The Love Boat on land but a little soapier. I will forever maintain that Hotel was a time slot hit. I don't believe that 1983/84 Hotel was a better show than Knots Landing.

    • The timing is strange, though. How far in advance would they normally be on location? The Achille Lauro hijacking was on October 7, 1985. Nancy had arrived in Egypt in the storyline by October 18. But the character of Hawk, Chris' Native American friend from Arizona, had already appeared onscreen by September and brought a letter telling Chris to be in Egypt by October 25th.  Why did they already have the link to Arizona before the reason to cancel the shoot in Egypt?  The dust and the jar it came in were from Egypt though. Nancy bought it there and sent it to Mac as a gift before she came back to the states and followed Chris to Arizona.
    • Actually that is not what happened. Nor is the timing right for it to have been. We learned from a WOST interview with Pete Lemay  in 2006, which can be found on YT, that it was Fred Silverman's idea to do the 90 minute show. I don't know how much you know about him but he had these amazing successes as head of daytime at both ABC & at CBS. Then he came to NBC where basically everything he touched turned NOT TO GOLD but to shite. Some of the most expensive shows ever produced up to that time were huge flops. Although even he, like a broken clock, could be right on occasion. However, as we know, he was not right about the 90 minute show. As a matter of fact, afterward,  NBC programmers, who worked FOR him, were asked why they did it & they were quoted as saying it was because they couldn't think of anything else to try. It was a stupid idea from a man who had reached the point where he was throwing anything at the wall to see if it would stick.

    • I stopped watching Another World in 1990. Simply, lost interest in the show.  I had watched the show from 1973 to 1990. The 90 minute show started the decline of AW.  NBC panicked with expanding AW due to the GH hoopla. As mentioned above, 1982 was a trainwreck for AW.  The introduction of the Shea family, the movie storyline involving Jamie, and Steve Frame favoring Rachel over Alice. The writers went into that direction due to the forgettable performance of Linda Borgeson.

    • Ive seen that theory thrown out but the one thing against it is that Leslie and her family lived in Chicago. She only came back to DC last year after her husband died. Unless they say Alan made a trip to DC and died while away, she wouldnt know about that. However I do think the angle of her finding out that Martin was involved could work as that gives her leverage against Bill too for covering it up. She'd want to get revenge on him by threatening to have him disbarred
    • What a good write-up @Errol! Nice seeing the nod to Duplaix's lead.
