Wouldn't it be like the 45th? I thought she first joined on 1978 but I think this was the 40th Anniversary of her Debut as Patty on Y&R

I was surprised there was News OF her death on a Brazilian News Channel, but It was badly done for example, it said she played "Patti Weaver" on Y&R

My bad someone incorrectly called it 40th but she first aired on OLTL on 7/2/1978 which would be 45th; her first appearance as Patty on Y&R was July 1983, which of course would be 40 years.

I really wonder if Evan’s would’ve been a bigger daytime icon if the whole stalker ordeal hadn’t derailed her career in the 90’s.  That was very a unfortunate tale.

Totally agree! As a kid I remember hating Rebecca, but as I got older I just realized that Andrea was so good with the comedic OTT stuff she went through on that show, that I couldn't help but start cracking a smile towards the end of the show's run.....When she returned a few years later as Tawny on Y&R and then B&B I had that same smile on my face watching her! I was hoping for years she reprise either Tawny, or Days or GH would have picked her up (even if would probably waste her) just to see her onscreen again...

This is one of my favorite moments at 12:04...All these scenes are iconic IMO!!

    • I've seen so many posters over the years who are bright, creative, well-versed in soap history, and who care deeply about the integrity of the genre. I'd put the shows' chances in their hands a lot faster than I would allow any of the "usual suspects" to take control of the dramas they've already helped decimate. When I returned to university in the 1980s, I created a bible for a new soap and presented it in my screenwriting class. It was in reaction to how badly I saw the network shows being butchered at the time. The creative process was thrilling; a total joy, and I still smile when I remember the positive feedback I received from the professor and my fellow students. I was used to seeing written commentary from professors on my work. This one wrote me a long, complimentary note on the final page of the bible, but also graded it 97%, A+. I was beaming ear to ear for days!

    • Thanks. I do wonder if Rose was meant to be more given the caliber of actress they hired. I remembered Sara and Peggy staying longer as they were still on when Soapnet started their repeats. I wonder if that was part of the reason they brought Jake's brother in. 
    • Speculation about Missy Reeves' potential evolution on basic civil rights doesn’t change my opinion of her. My view is shaped entirely by her public social media presence—which I find unpalatable—and I have no interest in learning more beyond that. I simply liked Jennifer’s hair and dress. That’s as far as my admiration goes.

    • Cheryl was gone before Lemay came back but I agree with your thinking that he would rather a character from a family he introduced to the show than a family he did not originate.  I remember reading somewhere in the early 90's probably after DS left as writer, their was an either a writer or a producer who made a comment that their intent was bring the McKinnon family back to AW.  Would have made sense for the newer viewers from the 80's.  Much like Lemay's attempt to bring the Frames back from his writing in the 70's in his 1988 return
    • DePriest left in January 1988. According to the AWHP, Rose last appeared nearly a year before in February 1987 while both Sara and Peggy appeared as late as October 1987.
    • Annie was not brought in as an antagonist for Reva. Reva wasn’t even on the canvas when Annie first appeared in late 1994. 
    • The speculation……….very entertaining. 
    • I had forgotten that several Days stars came out strong against Melissa. Good for them!
    • That would have made sense. Did all these characters get dropped when DePriest left or had they already been dropped?
