I got a kick out of the mention that NBC had pilot deals with Marlee Matlin, Phil Hartman and A. In retrospect, the Dobsons should have given Eden and Cruz much happier endings. Martinez's departure from Santa Barbara were already planted. Oh well, at least he's not playing Luke anymore. ![]() Tony Geary continues the trend of GH leading men dumping on their characters. If I'm not mistaken, she ended up re-auditioning (and getting rejected) for Vicky and Marley a few months later. Side note: Ellen Wheeler, who read for Whitney, was adrift at this time. On the way out: Besides Philip and Beth, we've got Ken Jordan (victim of too many rewrites) of AW, Dan Wolek of OLTL (umpteenth time wasn't the charm with what should have been a legacy character) and two pair from Loving, Cabot & Isabelle Alden and Egypt & Alex Masters. York as Mac.Ĭasting that didn't: Frank Koski, whom I don't remember at all, on OLTL. Compare it to the legendary moment where the Santa Barbara cast was losing its the year the show won its first Daytime Emmy for Best Drama.Ĭasting that worked out in the long run (and then some): Kristoff St. I think every female on that show embraced him before he finally left their table. Sherri Anderson's comment about actors making sure to kiss their winning costars reminds me of the time Chris Colfer won his Golden Globe for Glee. Oh well, at least Phillip and Beth aren't getting a "bizarre ending." Then again, this is a soap - would being presumed dead be that offbeat? What would be offbeat is if they left to pursue careers on the Olympics basketball team. ![]() ![]() Beth Chamberlain got a cruddy deal, apparently being kicked off the show since Grant Aleksander decided to leave. ![]() Philip and Beth's wedding and departure from GL is our top story. Since the previous pattern was CBS-NBC-ABC, I now assume the last four shows will go in reverse and be SB, Y&R, Loving and then B&B. Whoa, I was not expecting the GH primer until Monty 2.0 was more firmly in motion.
