It seems to be the comeback vehical of the decade. It worked for Cloris Leachman it could work for Jim DePaiva. Even at his extreme age. I can call he age extreme as I was at college with him and stage managed him in "The Fifth of July".KarenBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14332552239590944803noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7644366697995907954.post-82501800208129687152009-06-04T00:08:59.787-04:002009-06-04T00:08:59.787-04:00Thank you MarkH.

I may not believe in "shoulds" but I appreciate your enthusiastic support! <br /><br />Don't you think he'd be great as a love interest for Erica on AMC? I'm just sayin'!Damon L.

This is a good thing, but I confess it almost made me uncomfortable because there was SO much self-disclosure.<br /><br />Mr. DePaiva is clearly quite evolved in his self-cognitions, and it is interesting to see even an awareness on his part of future work that he seeks to do.<br /><br />Of course, DePaiva would have much to bring to performance, and to daytime in particular. The ageist nature of the genre, the limited (and growing more limited) availabilities in New York for daytime, and his own iconic status all work against a daytime reprise. When we look at him, we think 'Max'! Truly, that's in a category with Victor and Erica and Delia and Marlena and Rachel... So, it is very hard to see such a powerful performer in a different role.<br /><br />But for that reason, I'd love to see it. In the waning days of ATWT, I'd love it if Mr. DePaiva could play completely against type (e.g., a lover for Forbes March's new gay character). <br /><br />In any event, I am thankful to both the interviewer and interviewee and host-site for these remarkably probing conversations. THIS is what the soap magazines should have been doing...Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17786080894058246344noreply@blogger.com
