We Love Soaps is taking some time this Christmas to pay homage to the wonderfully talented and generous Suzanne Rogers. The gorgeous and inspiring Emmy winning actress took time to talk with us on several occasions this past year, and we continue to be grateful for her candid and frank discussions related to Maggie Horton's evolution on DAYS OF OUR LIVES, as well as Suzanne's triumph over her own inner battles. In case you missed it, here is a recap of the best of We Love Suzanne:
Interview:
Part One - Suzanne shares aspects of her early professional life in New York, how failing a Y&R audition led to success on DAYS, and memories of her first story as Maggie.

Part Three - Suzanne shares how emotional factors contributed her to her physical debilitation, and how she came fighting back.

Part Five - The Emmy winning actress discusses the sudden popularity of her character after 36 years on the show, hopes for Maggie's future, and hard lessons learned.

Thanks for the Christmas present of featuring the divine Suzanne Rogers who has been doing such wonderful work on Days. The more scenes they give her she just gets better and better.
ReplyDeleteNow that Frances Reid is no longer able to be the town matriarch, Suzanne is the natural inheritor of that mantle. Old enough to have gravitas, but young and vital enough to play a bigger part on the Salem landscape, she is perfect for this role.
With the rumors of a big storyline for 2010, lets hope they come up with something good because she is certainly up to it.
You guys are so cute - "We Love Suzanne" is right. Happy holidays to the team. You keep us on top of all things soaptastic.
