Does anyone have when she met Sabrina the first time??? i always wondered how it is, Kathryn was beautiful talented elegant, and versatile if you look for her Western days i can find her in totally opposite characters Sweet Prudence on Bonanza and "Tornado Frances" on The High Chaparral not that apart in time, i never got to see much of her on ATWT but loved what i saw She'll Sure Be Missed RIP To a Lovely Lady

PS: i must get away from soaps every time i get interested in a particular performer death strikes

All the comments and outpouring of memories and emotions in this thread just prove my point: it's not the storylines we care about; it's the characters, and the actors who play them.  They are what sustain us as viewers through good times and bad.

If only someone would remind TPTB of that.

All of this!!!

I have to admit there’s a couple times I’ve gotten phone calls letting me know great aunt who or some cousin has passed away without feeling any type of emotional connection yet there has been a select few  soap performers over the years that when they passed I was bawling my eyes out.

Yep.  And when soaps were being tossed aside for Game Shows and Talk shows I said, no one will ever say things like, remember when that woman won the car, remember that time XX said XX on The Talk, etc.  There might be some nice memories that someone remembers about such shows and things, but not the way you remember characters on a soap.  When you travel far from home, move to a new place, of course there is a familiarity with a show like Price is Right or a talk show.  But nothing takes you home like the characters on soaps when they were done well.  Those people become family in a way to us unlike anything else.  Hays was one of those people that you turned on the TV, no matter where you were in your life, and you were 'home' for a few minutes.  We're lucky that we got to see soaps when they were good, and it's sad that only we will remember.

    • Well, that is weird. I do not see him but I only have him on Ignore on 2 accounts.
    • In the preview for the show back in February on Entertainment Tonight, Jeresa the costume designer was specific about each character's economic background, personality, and the character's personal fashion preferences.  Very much about the characters and not the actors. She said Eva is a thrifter, so her normal daily wardrobe would be something from a thrift store, and if BTG buys it new, they intentionally make it look used. So what you said fits about the type of thing a lower income person would buy for a fancy event.
    • As hard as it is for me to imagine anyone but Don Stewart as Mike Bauer...I dunno...maybe someone like "Adam-12"'s Kent McCord?  Or Robert Hogan?
    • Yep I don't hate Javi and then he's macking on Leo and I'm done with him. Leo is a failure who needs to go away   I am bracing myself for Alex reading the manuscript and imagining him and Stephanie as the main characters, because this couple has literally nothing else to do until Joy comes back showing 
    • Oh yes. The towel scene though 
    • Interesting that Donald May has been mentioned twice. He's on my dreamcast list for Alan. He was somewhat older than Stewart and Bernau, but he could have played either role. An actor I thought about for Mike was Dan Hamilton. He played a role on GL during the 60s, but enough time had passed that it shouldn't have been a problem. He usually played smarmy characters but it would have been cool if they had gone against typecasting.
    • I like Jed Allan, it has to be someone who can play authority but "good" authority to oppose Alan's bad. As mentioned upthread, can you imagine how it would have been with Alan and Mike against each other, with Roger in the mix. But I would have had Roger, ever the opportunist to try to take advantage of their fighting to make his own headway.  Maybe that could have been the storyline, Mike involved with Alex, but the constant fighting with Alan causes a rift (she like Mike fighting Alan when it is to her advantage, but he can be a bit self righteous and I can see him demanding her to disavow Alan publicly..) so that is how Roger lands in her bed, much to the consternation of BOTH Alan and Mike. I would like to have a woman of a certain age being fought over by two men (really three if you count Alan.
    • Please let May have less garbage time. The Y&R threads have shrunken, whereas I can barely keep up with the Beyond the Gates threads.
    • The Liam cancer story was a failure from day one. It didn't start at point A but at a late point C. My aunt had brain cancer, and it isn't being told properly or correctly.
    • OMG, did Gio look good. Do not get me started on how good he looked. Lord. It's as if the writers realized Lulu had almost no scenes with her mother, so they wrote all this material for a 2-day Lulu/Laura therapy session. It was nice to see them connect, but I scratched my head yesterday when Lulu tried to connect her adoption story to Laura's life. That was a stretch to me, and I sign the writers were working overtime. Today, the script eventually got to the right place, but I thought it was overboard to see Lulu so worked up that she was near tears. That's investment in a story that's become an obsession.
