You are right, it was GL. His name was Brent and his "girl name" was Marion or something like that with an "m". He was trying to break up Lucy (the actress could be TWINS with the gal who plays Felicia on GH) and Alan Michael. It was such a weird storyline, but the acting was so good! It was almost a "Psycho" type thing because he had issues with his mother and talked to himself in the mirror a lot. The creepy part was that the actor who played Brent had a mental breakdown in real-life due in part to the stress he was under from playing such a freak (or so the Soap Opera press hinted at). I had forgotten all about that!!!I'm gonna repost what I posted at the tailend of the DOOL thread, because I am thinking people don't always want to open 100+ threads due to the time for them to load up.
ATTENTION SOAP FANS! ESPECIALLY DOOL FANS... THIS IS A MUST SEE!
Especially for longtime viewers of the show! I stumbled upon this site a couple of months ago and they change the video clips every couple of weeks. THIS time, they have segments of an episode that ran February 14, 1966!!!! It's in black and white and Tom and Alice look sooooooo wonderful and young! I had forgotten how handsome MacDonald Carey was! Marie Cheatam as their daughter Marie is in it and John Clarke (WOW....HE was handsome too and looks so very young) is Mickey and they have Julie (but it's not Susan Seaforth Hayes. It's some other chick and it's back when Julie was in HS). They discuss Julie and her brother Steven............shoot, I had practically forgotten about Steven...do you guys remember him? When I watched, he was played by Stephan Schnetzer (sp?) the guy who played Cass Winthrop on AW. And they discuss Addie - Julie's mom(who I remember) and Julie's dad Ben Olson(who I don't remember...remember the name, but never saw him on screen).
Anyway, it's a real hoot to see the hairstyles, hear the lame "soapy" background music, and to see beloved characters from way back when! Here is the link: World of Soap Themes
When you get there, just click on the Days of Our Lives picture on the right side. You won't be sorry! And while you're there, check out their other stuff too! Lots of good soap memories over there! And like I said, they update and provide new clips every couple of weeks! Woo Hoooo!
Also, if you are into AMC, there is an awesome clip there from 1982 when Liza was a college freshman, Jesse Hubbard, the "real" Ruth Martin, Nina and Cliff, Jenny and Greg........ahhhhhh the memories! Check it out!
MM Maybe this world is another planet’s hell
