Members Faulkner Posted March 30, 2023 Members Share Posted March 30, 2023 Not talking about psychos and villains. More characters like Opal on AMC, Spinelli on GH, or Luna on OLTL who walked to the beat of their own drummer, may have been mystics or comic relief, had their own distinctive language or crazy style, and were viewed as kinda off the wall by other characters.

Members Titus Andronicus Posted March 30, 2023 Members Share Posted March 30, 2023 Eugene and Calliope, of course, on Days. Eugene seizing the moment and taking credit for getting Marlena pregnant when Roman was presumed dead was comedy gold, as was the shotgun wedding Tom Horton arranged for them.

Members slick jones Posted March 30, 2023 Members Share Posted March 30, 2023 @Faulkner Slick was the quintessential sidekick that could hook you up with a dancer, a fence, a Quartemaine or a drink at the Bucket of Blood. Or all of those in one person! I didn't pick this screen name lightly! Please register in order to view this content Lest we not forget, GH's Olin, the jive talkin' nanny.

Members carolineg Posted March 30, 2023 Members Share Posted March 30, 2023 Definitely not my favorite by a long shot, but Days Susan Banks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members watson71 Posted March 30, 2023 Members Share Posted March 30, 2023 Another World & Texas’ Vivien Gorrow as the Cory and Iris’ maid. Not too many people could steal a scene from Beverlee McKinsey, but Gretchen Oehler’s Vivien could. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Paul Raven Posted March 30, 2023 Members Share Posted March 30, 2023 Y&R Esther (in her heyday with Mrs C) Not a favorite but for the record DOOL Leticia Bradford /Ruth Buzzi In a lot of cases, little of these 'oddball' characters goes along way with me as sometimes it seems having them overact is seen as enough by the writers.

Members Franko Posted March 30, 2023 Members Share Posted March 30, 2023 What happened to Olin, anyway? Did she fade out in the 1990-91 exodus of characters? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members slick jones Posted March 30, 2023 Members Share Posted March 30, 2023 I remember Noriko became Anna's new housekeeper, but I don't recall Olin's exit. @depboy Do you remember how Olin left? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
