BOBBIE TRIES TO BREAK UP SCOTTY AND LAURA, 1977-79
What is your take on why Bobbie scheming to win Scotty away from Laura was such a huge hit? “That was a brilliant story. Kin [Shriner, Scott] loved that story and Genie [Francis, Laura] really loved that story because it was real! It was as real as what happens in real life. Boy meets girl, boy has feelings for girl, they start to have a romance and another woman comes along and tries to break it up. For Bobbie to come on with the kind of agenda and initiative to say, ‘If I want it, I have to go after it and get it for myself, and he’s the one I want’ was a very alpha way of behaving in those days. It was such a pleasure to play because we honestly didn’t even have to prepare as actors, all we had to do was [channel] the passion and the love and the attraction and the chemistry and all that stuff. It was all character-driven. It was about learning who you are and finding your way and the choices that you had made to get there. That’s why the ratings went crazy through the roof. Fans loved that story. We had great soap careers because we were given the material to let us shine. Wow.”
