Her characterizations made it easy for me to love and accept her when she took over the role of Jill Abbott on Y&R. <br />I also distinctly remember Debrah Farentino and Catherine HicklandAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2585163331194032530.post-66760283938898371772013-11-05T17:13:24.466-05:002013-11-05T17:13:24.466-05:00Capitol also gave us an introduction to alot of go...Capitol also gave us an introduction to alot of good actors such as the great Jess Walton, Debrah Farentino, Catherine Hickland, Nicolas Walker and also gave veterans like Carolyn Jones, Marj Dusay and Julia Adams a place to shine.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2585163331194032530.post-79632830039911694212013-11-05T16:10:09.314-05:002013-11-05T16:10:09.314-05:00A couple years ago, there was a Josh Schwartz pilo...A couple years ago, there was a Josh Schwartz pilot for ABC primetime called GEORGETOWN. It didn't make it on the schedule, but I thought it sounded like a great idea for a new daytime soap.
