In this column, Katrina shares with you the quips, quotes and emails that she found remarkable in some way. Sources may include interviews, scripted lines from the shows, message groups, message boards or other conversations. If it made me think, laugh, cry or say, "Hmmmm," I'll share it with you! {Comments in these things are my own} October 9, 2006 "Viewers will feel that fairy
tale come to pass again." {Can they live "happily ever after" somewhere off screen? Can we not have poofy pirate-wear this time? Please?} "That's one couple the audience
has really been screaming at us about!" {This just goes to show that they just hear SCREAMING, not the WORDS that are being screamed at them!} "The decision to write David off
the canvas was both financial and storyline-based." {How else can they pay for the considerable talents of the newly acquired actors who play Colby, Syndey and Sean? Where would AMC be without them?} "Real kissing is very
unattractive on-camera. Sometimes you get the saliva thing going.
It's much better to act. It's like doing a drunk scene. It's
much better to act drunk than to be drunk." "My very first experience with [GH]
was in a scene with Jane [Elliot, Tracy]. I could see at that moment
that she was a formidable partner." "We underplay the soap and we
glorify the opera." "You never know. I have two
kids to feed." "You call your son 'Spike.'
I can only imagine what you'll call your dog." {Personally, I think she's already got a couple of dogs in her life... and a bitch or two.} "That it doesn't do any good to
argue with my life. Just say, 'Yes, ma'am' and go do it." "I was very lucky to have been a
vampire with him." "The humor is not always there on
the paper, but people like him put it there. That is an
underappreciated talent on daytime." "Sleep with your head at that end
or the drunks in the drunk tank will pull your hair." "I'm thrilled and I hope we get
the chance to work together. {So do we, darlin} "It'll only be for four weeks,
[but] they promised that they won't kill her off because that would be
awful." "I'm of the opinion that they
really don't know what to do with my character... They use [the veteran
actors] as a buffer between the various other dramatic elements in the
show. We come along as this comedy relief. We should be there
to enhance the story and not divert the story." "I think she was sacrificed on
the altar of 'I don't have an idea [what to do with her].'" "Who do I have to fight [to get
it]?" "Because the pharmaceutical
company [that sells] Dramamine is one of our official sponsors." "I've been on the show for eight
years and I didn't even know there was a Jeff Martin." Sonny: "I didn't like the sound of your cough, so I had somebody hack into your medical records." Alexis: "You couldn't just buy me a cough drop?" (GH) "I got food poisoning. In
between takes, I was on the side throwing up." "I'm really proud and very
excited to be on the show when these kinds of risks are taken." {ah, ah, ah, ah suck up choo!} "There's a plan to have Lucas
develop a relationship." {Really? Must have blinked and missed it!} "I liked you better when you were
drinking." "You married a psychopath who
once chained poor pregnant Carly to a wall. How surprised are you,
really, that he slept with your newly minted daughter?" "I know none of you will believe
this, but I have done this kind of work before." "Edmund, definitely, was the love
of Brooke's life." "Before or after Sam slept with
Ric?" "Jason." "I played solitaire on the
computer and watched the OJ trial." "On OLTL, I don't know if the
studio was smaller or the egos were bigger; maybe it was a combination of
things, but as a whole, I like coming in knowing nobody's ego is bigger
than mine." "I always knew I wanted to be a
dancer. I started dancing when I was 5. I was in heaven when I
was dancing." "At the end of Laura's run, she
is going to kick-start a new story for the others. A big
story."
