Creator: Irma Phillips

In the pressure-cooker atmosphere of daily soap operas, its not surprising that almost all of them have backstage incidents as chaotic as what appears on the screen. But Another World towers over all comers in this respect in having its seams show publicly. Consider the following: In more than 30 years on the air, the show virtually wrote out its entire core family not once but twice; became the first daily soap to run 60 minutes and then, temporarily, 90 minutes; became the first soap to have both a daytime spin-off {Somerset) and a second spin-off (Texas); caused one head writer to pen a book about his ordeals doing the show {Eight Years in Another World by Harding Lemay, who ironically returned in 1988 and 1995 as a consultant); and went from near cancellation in the mid-1960s to NEC's top attraction of the mid- to late 1970s, only to fall back in the pack as a low-rated offering in the 1980s and 1990s. So if you want to hear its full story, to paraphrase Bette Davis, fasten your seat belts, it's going to be a bumpy read. Another World was so titled because its creator, Irna Phillips, was referring to her pet creation As the World Turns. This soap, however, emphasized melodrama over characterization, and did so from the start, both on and off screen. Members of the Matthews family had to deal with the death of William, whose survivors were his rich wife Liz and children Susan and Bill, plus William's middle-class brother Jim, his wife Mary, and their children Pat, Russ, and Alice, and William's sister Janet and mom Grandma Matthews. Janet and Grandma Matthews disappeared shortly after the show began and virtually no reference was made to them, while offstage an anxious Irna, for no reason whatsoever, canned John Beal as Jim after the first show and Sarah Cunningham as Liz after the first week. These were the initial indications of what was to be a pattern during the show's first two decades. Pat Matthews had the main action during the show's first year, as she became pregnant by Tom Baxter, was forced by him into having an abortion, and was traumatized to the point of hearing babies scream. She killed Tom while temporarily insane, saying, "You love me, you love me," and when lawyer John Randolph successfully defended her, she fell in love with and married him. But John's daughter Lee tried to kill herself faced with this situation, then felt guilt when she ended up crippling him in an auto accident, and called a truce with Pat. The truce broke off when the two of them fell in love with, of all people, Lee's new law partner Michael Bauer, on leave from The Guiding Light. (Apparently Irna had enough power to have CBS let this character go onto the NBC show for a time. Wow!) WTien Michael decided that he and his daughter Hope should return to Springfield rather than wreck the Randolph family, a distraught Lee got involved with shady Lefty Burns, who hooked her on drugs. In 1968, having tripped on LSD contained in a spiked drink, she worried that the child she was carrying by ex-convict Sam Lucas would be deformed. That concern was rendered moot when Lee, under the influence of LSD in 1969, crashed her car and died, leaving Pat and John to face more trouble on their own in the 1970s. 

Meanwhile, Bill Matthews found himself attracted to Missy Palmer, an orphan (coincidentally, so was actress Carol Roux). Missy was a recovering schizophrenic who, when she found out she was illegitimate via Bill's conniving mother Liz who had invited Missy's natural mother Cathryn Corning to town, went insane and left Bay City for Chicago. There scummy criminal Danny Fargo forced Missy into marriage and raped her. Bill found Missy being tried for Danny's murder; battling Bay City district attorney Walter Curtin, he proved that Danny's ex-girlfriend Flo Murray had killed him accidentally. Missy and Bill wed, but sadly in 1968 Bill drowned in an accident. His sister Susan had problems with their mom, too, in the romance department, as they fought over the affections of lawyer Fred Douglas before Susan wed him (she later divorced him and married Dr. Dan Shearer). After the first year, Irna Phillips left the series, and new head writer James Lipton introduced the Gregory family while demoting or writing out most of the Matthewses. Before the whole family disappeared along with the lousy  ratings, Agnes Nixon, former Guiding Light head writer, took over in 1967 and killed off the Gregories. She hit paydirt with what dominated the story line in the late 1960s and early 1970s and became known as the Alice-Steven-Rachel triangle. Russ Matthews wed hellion Rachel Davis, daughter of beautician Ada Davis, who would be widowed four times. . 

Rachel was a demanding dame who complained about the lack of income from Russ due to his work as a hospital intern. She found solace in a tryst with businessman Steven Frame, who unfortunately had a romance going at the same time with Russ's sister Alice. She had a baby by Steven named Jamie, but despite using all her wiles, and despite Alice's dismay over the situation, Alice and Steven married in 1971, while Russ divorced Rachel when he learned he was not Jamie's father. Romantic maneuvers in these relationships deepened when Russ starting dating nurse Cindy Clark while Rachel wed Cindy's brother Ted. Not much came of either relationship, particularly when Rachel convinced Alice that Steven still loved her, which led to Alice and Steven divorcing and Rachel marrying Steven. For a time, Rachel had the upper hand. Rachel's mother Ada also had her hand in a few of the plots during these years. The sister of con man Sam Lucas, Lee Randolph's old fling, Ada wed Ernie Downs. W^hien Lee died, Sam wed Lahoma Vane, and the two of them along with Missy Palmer left town for Somerset, the title of the soaps first spin-off, in 1970. A few years later, Ada's ex-husband Gerald Davis came to town from Somerset to stay for a spell, and Ada got a new husband in policeman Gil McGowan, with Ada giving birth to their child. Also in the thick of things was socialite Lenore Moore, who tried to split up Missy and Bill before wedding Walter Curtin. To provide for spoiled Lenore, Walter quit his job as district attorney and went into cahoots with Wayne Addison, who romanced Liz Matthews. Liz, while friendly with Lenore's mother Helen, hated Lenore and tried to pin Wayne's murder on her, a crime that had actually been committed by Walter. Walter died in a car accident in 1972 while on his way to confess his crime, and Lenore eventually got over her grief to marry architect Robert Delaney, a rare character crossover from Somerset, in 1974. Robert had an affair with Carol Lamonte, who blackmailed Lenore, hinting she knew what atrocity her late husband had done. A fearful Lenore left town, and an equally unhappy Robert ended his affair with Carol. Amid all this, the Alice-Steven-Rachel triangle still dominated, as Alice tried in 1973 to forget Steven by being a governess to Dennis Carrington while the child's father Eliot fell in love with her. This did not thrill Eliots estranged wife Iris, who tried to reunite with him before divorcing. Then, learning that she could never bear children, Alice went into deep depression, and Steven, informed other situation, nursed her to health and reclaimed her. In a special one-hour episode on May 3, 1974, a day shy of its 10th anniversary, Allison finally married Steven. The format and plot point both served as hints of things to come.

These goings-on, most of which happened in 1975, were nothing to what was going on offstage. First, the shows packager, Procter & Gamble, endorsed an expansion to an  hour, with the new 30 minutes coming from the cancellation  of How to Survive a Marriage. At the start of 1975 it become the first soap to run 60 minutes daily. At the same time, the ongoing conflict between head writer Harding Lemay, who joined the show in 1971 and led it to the top of the ratings, and several actors whose performances he loathed, escalated. Chief among these actors were Virginia Dwyer (Mary), George Reinholt (Steven), and Jacqueline Courtney (Alice). All played popular characters, but Lemay felt they fell far short of professionalism. He accused Dwyer of relying on cue cards heavily and hardly learning her lines at all, Reinholt of being egotistical, and Courtney of simply being a bad actress. So he had Mary die of a coronary attack, Steven announced dead in a helicopter crash in Australia, and Courtney replaced by another actress. These changes represented as drastic a cast changeover as had ever been seen in a serial, but since the emphasis now was on Mac, Rachel, and Iris, its impact in the ratings was fairly minimal, even though Courtney and Reinholt appeared shortly thereafter as regulars on rival soap One Life to Live. With the new hour format came a few other stories, of course. Pat and John Randolph, who each had endured a few separations and bouts with the bottle, finally divorced in 1976, much to their fraternal twins Michael and Marianne's dismay. Pat fell in love with Dr. Dave Gilchrist, while John wed hot-to-trot Olive Gordon, who promptly cheated on him with architect Evan Webster. Evan died in a fight with John, who had a mental breakdown afterward before recovering and divorcing Olive. (Surprisingly, Pat also found herself a murder defendant in the death of her daughter Marianne's fiance Greg Bernard, who tried to rape Pat.) Sadly, there would be no reunion for Pat and John, as the latter died in 1979 from a fire Olive set to try to kill Alice, who had announced her engagement to Dan Shearer during his separation from Susan. Dan and Susan reconciled and left Bay City for a second time.

Alice had several suitors after Steven's death besides Dan. The first was Steve's scheming brother Willis Frame, who used Alice to gain control of Frame Enterprises while really seeing Carol Lamonte. Protecting her from his plot were lawyer Vie Hastings and Raymond Gordon, the son of Rachel and Mac's housekeeper Beatrice Gordon and ex-husband of aforementioned Olive Gordon. When Raymond and Alice got engaged, Beatrice shocked them by announcing she was the grandmother of Sally, Alice's newly adopted daughter, and temporarily kidnapped the child, fearing Ray unfit to be a father. She returned Sally and left town but proved to be right, as Rays business and marriage to Alice crumbled. Alice got engaged to Dan Shearer after a final fling with Willis, who dated Angie Perrini after finishing with Carol. (Coincidentally, teenager Sally was in love with Angle's sister Joey, and her efforts to stop him from loving Eileen Simpson drove a wedge between her and her mom Alice.) Willis was the first of a host of Frame relatives who showed up in the late 1970s, all either brothers or sisters to the supposedly late Steve. There was Emma Ordway, whose daughter Molly wed Michael Randolph while seeing Cliff Tanner on the side; Sharlene Watts, whose marriage to Russ Matthews went bust once her prior life as a hooker came to light; Vince Frame, who wed Angie Perrini after her love with Willis died; and Janice Frame, who caused Mac to divorce Rachel for her while really trying to get his money with the help of her boyfriend Mitch Blake. Mitch decided to mend his ways and help Rachel stop Janice from killing Mac, allowing Rachel and Mac to remarry. The latter was not the first conflict faced by Rachel and Mac in the late 1970s. Iris tried to prevent Rachel from having a child by Mac. Then Iris hired the rather eerie Sven Peterson as the duo's new butler. Sven went off on his own tangent; he drugged Mac and Sven's daughter Regine and put them in a bed, thereby convincing them that they had had sex. Regine s baby actually had been sired by Cliff Tanner, a fact uncovered after Sven was captured for dismembering Mac's chaffeur Rocky Olsen, who found out about the plot. Rachel and Mac then got together and finally had a child named Amanda while trying to deal with the restless nature of Rachel s now grown child Jamie. Jamie had a wife named Blaine Ewing, whom Rachel disapproved of, and Rachel encouraged Blaine's ex-boyfriend Buzz Winslow to try and win back his old flame's affections. Rifts like this between mother and son cropped up frequently into the 1980s. 

Other members of Rachel and Mac's family had similarly rocky relationships. Ada became a widow after Gil McGowan died, then made Charlie Hobson her fourth husband. Charlie was Clarice Hobson's father, and she wed policeman Larry Ewing, Blaine's brother, after a failed union with Burt McGowan, the late Gil's son. Mac's daughter Iris stewed over the fact that her teenage son Dennis was having a tryst with Countess Elena de Poulignac, who earlier had been in a love triangle with Russ Matthews and Gwen Parrish. Then Iris was mortified to learn she was adopted, which caused her to separate from husband Brian Bancroft as she searched for her natural mother. Iris found her in the person of  somewhat earthy New York clothes designer Sylvie Kosloff, who relocated to Bay City along with her partner Kirk Laverty. Kirk and Iris had a fling until his lawyer Jeff Stone murdered her, and she went back to Brian for a time. In 1979, as Another World's top ratings began to falter, the show became the first soap to stretch to 90 minutes daily in an attempt to revive NBC's anemic daytime performance. The show's personnel prepared five months for the event and devised a system whereby there were separate casts for morning and afternoon sessions of shooting. The show also added eight new characters and increased the main plots from three to five. To those doubting the viability of the effort, Pete Lemay told TV Guide, "I always say, it's not more difficult than doing an hour, which is much easier than 30 minutes." Lemay ended up eating his words, as he found the constrictions and time pressures of the new format untenable, like having to allow Douglass Watson (Mac), Victoria Wyndham (Rachel), and Beverlee McKinsey (Iris) to work only three days each week per their contracts. He left the show shortly after the change to write his highly opinionated history of his work in the 1981 book Eight Years in Another World, but loved the series enough to return later as a consultant. His successors had just as much difficulty in handling the show, and after a year the series went back to an hour, with Iris leaving her husband Brian Bancroft to find romance with Alex Wheeler in Texas.

Some new characters in the 90-minute show were nurse Kit Farrell, who pursued a rocky love with Joey Perrini while trying to conceal her identity as a rich woman; her brother Dr. Rick Halloway, who wed Marianne Randolph despite her interest in Jamie Frame; Jerry Grove, a lawyer who wed Jamie's ex-wife Blaine Ewing until the latter was blackmailed by the mob into divorcing him and marrying their leader Jordan Scott; and Cecile de Poulignac, Elena's niece (actually daughter, as it turned out), who fought with Pat Randolph for the love of Cory Publications editor Philip Lyons. Cecile was a central villainess the next few years, particularly when she wed Jamie Frame and got him hooked on drugs while two-timing him with ex-gigolo Sandy Alexander, the latter Mac's illegitimate son, whom she married and with whom she had a child. Family relations were a big hassle for Mac and Rachel by the early 1980s, when the show shrank back to a more reasonable hour daily format. They broke up when  Rachel, found guilty of the supposed murder of Mitch Blake thanks to the strong prosecutorial work of D.A. Zachary Colton, had to admit that she was pregnant from her fling with Mitch. Colton later was found guilty of murdering Jordan Scott. Rachel escaped from prison to look for Mitch, whom she found alive with amnesia, then gave birth to their son Matthew. Mac in the meantime won custody of Amanda, his daughter with Rachel. Meanwhile, the Matthews clan nearly vanished from the show, with only Aunt Liz and Alice surviving. Russ Matthews left town after his wife Tracy De Witt was knocked off accidentally by her manager Jason Dunlap and his cohort lisa Fredericks in an explosion meant for Russ. In 1982 his father Jim died of a heart attack out of town (actor Hugh Marlowe had in fact passed away that year). And Jim's daughter Pat left town and her fiance Brian Bancroft when she learned Jamie had written a roman A clef that included her troubles in its narrative. When Beverly Penberthy, the actress playing Pat, was fired from the show in January 1982, she summed up its deficiencies astutely for TV Guide: "You used to have characters that people believed in and were very familiar with—who became their friends. Now I see very short episodes with very young people who quickly fade away. And getting more people into bed or beaten up seems to be [the producers'] only idea of how to get ratings up. Older viewers are so unhappy, they come up to me and sob." The changes did not help ratings either, so several well-intentioned approaches took place in 1982-83, though their execution often came up short. The old Steven-Rachel-Alice triangle reactivated when Steven was found alive with amnesia after his helicopter accident. Steven's reappearance meant a bitter breakup between Mitch and Rachel, and a dissolution of the engagement between Mac and Alice as the latter went back to trying to win Steve. But the updated version of the triangle had new actors playing Steven and Alice, who failed to supply the resonance of the old days, and when Steven died for real in a car accident after confessing he loved Rachel the most, probably the most truly tragic ramification was that Alice left the show, which meant that the Matthews family basically was gone. Rachel, blinded temporarily in the crash, was won over again by Mac, and had a double wedding with Mac's son Sandy and Blaine Ewing after Sandy left Cecile. By 1986 Sandy and Blaine had left town. Another nice idea with meager results was the concious effort to integrate Bay City through the Hardings, featuring Vietnam veteran Ed Harding and his sister Quinn, who was fond of Lt. Bob Morgan until his death. In 1983 Quinn dated Dr. Abel Marsh, who was gun-shy of marriage, and then D.A. Adam Banks. But the black character who made the most impact could be considered a stereotypical one, except that Lily Mason the hooker was played with such verve by Jackee Harry that the actress later had an Emmy Award-winning career in nighttime sitcoms. 

As with other soaps of the time, the other defining trend of the early 1980s on Another World involved youth stories. Alice's daughter Sally wed Clarice Hobson's brother Denny Hobson, who was a murderer. Sandy's ex, Cecile, hired Blaine Ewing's old boyfriend Buzz Winslow and his sister Alma Rudder to woo Blaine and let Cecile get Sandy back, but Buzz went nuts and died while kidnapping Blaine, and Alma later was murdered while trying to blackmail Cecile over her new lover Cass Winthrop. Cass also was seeing novelist Felicia Gallant at the time, and the two flamboyant characters became a mainstay on the show over the next decade. Incidentally, in 1984 a book supposedly written by Felicia was released into stores by Harlequin Enterprises (actress Linda Dano said she really was involved in the writing of it). Steve Frame brought his daughter Diana Frame into the scene, and she romanced Pete Shea. Steve s other child Jamie became a busy boy, having flings with Marianne Randolph, who left him for her husband Rick Halloway after the publication of Jamie's novel on Bay City upset her; Susan Shearer, who returned to her estranged husband Dan; Julia Shearer, Susan's daughter; and attorney Stacey Winthrop. The youthful stories remained strong into 1985 when Sally and handsome Catlin Ewing, after two postponements, finally married, and a depressed Nancy McGowan got hooked on the drug Ecstasy while Larry Ewing attempted to find the pushers at the Plains Motel nightclub. Weirdest of all that year, Donna Love found out she gave birth to two daughters and not one, as the second occurred when she was sedated during labor! The brightest addition to the show turned out to be the arrival of a suave but driven newcomer, as Terrence Rafferty noted in Film Comment magazine. "For a few months, the character of Carl Hutchins seemed to transform Another World into something resembling a Victorian novel, in which every scheme and dark secret is the trace of a past catastrophe: in this case, the suicide o fHutchinss father years before in England, an act precipitated by Mac Cory's takeover of the Hutchins family business," wrote Rafferty. "Carl's obsession, revealed in flashbacks and dream sequences, was to right the old accounts by ruining Mac's business and destroying his family." Hutchins did so with increasingly treacherous schemes culminating in a shootout which wounded Rachel and left her with temporary amnesia. As engrossing as that was, Rafferty noted, after the denouement "the show seemed to unravel, the remaining characters left hanging by little dangling threads of story." Mac and Rachel went to being listening boards for other characters, and characters like ex-hooker Lily Mason and punk debutante Dee did little of note before disappearing.

The show tried such trendy additions as a teenage diner hangout called Smiley s and a beauty shop called Le Soleil, plus bizarre adventures that did little to further the show. Among the latter were lovers Nancy McGowan and Chris Chapin facing danger in Africa and cliffs in Monument Valley, and Hutchins returning from prison "on furlough" not to terrorize the Corys as before but rather to unearth a collection of ancient Egyptian art stowed under Le Soleil. On February 14, 1986, Felicia married fisherman Zane Lindquist in a rented $12,000 Chantilly-lace gown, with Liberace (in his last TV acting appearance) playing the piano. That same year, Chris Chapin served as a guinea pig for an experimental antidote to a mysterious poison dust which killed two people and started to afflict Mac and Rachel. (Carl Hutchins led Chris Chapin and his girlfriend to the dust, which was contained in an Egyptian treasure hidden in Arizona.) And Macs nephew Neal Cory was involved both with Victoria Love and a foreign extremist who was terrorizing the town. Offstage, Tom Epiin and Ellen Wheeler wed in real life. The most showy event of 1986, however, had to be the trial of Brittany Love for the murder of her husband Peter after months of arguments, where viewers decided whether she would be innocent or guilty. Also that year. Crystal Gayle appeared as herself in March at the new nightclub Tops to sing "You Take Me Away to Another World," which lasted nearly a decade as the shows theme song. In 1987 Nicole Love wed Cass after wife Kathleen died (Nicole also was upset that Barbara Van Arkdale had stolen her designs). Cass had returned after a seven-month "extended world honeymoon" without Kathleen. Amanda Cory returned from boarding school as an adult righting for a piece of the family's publishing business, and the "Sin Stalker" killed at least five people before being pursued by psychic  Lisa Grady. Also, Donna Love and Michael Hudson tracked down Michael's long-lost brother John Hudson. In 1988 another Cory Publishing takeover threat occurred along with a love triangle between Jamie, Victoria Love, and Lisa. A pregnant Amanda Cory wed blue-collar guy Sam Fowler. Also, AIDS patient Dawn Rollo went to Italy to die. The show continued to slog along in 1989, when the main highlights among generally tiresome activities, such as the machinations of an art theft ring, were the arrival of Lucas, who began an intense romance with Felicia until he died in 1992, and a week of shows celebrating the soaps 25th anniversary where Steven Frame was seen in a dream sequence by Rachel. Sadly, actor Douglass Watson died around the time these shows aired on May 1, 1989, and his character Mac was said to have died too, making Rachel a widow. In 1995 she remarried once more, this time to a reformed Carl Hutchins. Not long after Macs death, in 1993, Ada died too (actress Constance Ford made her last appearance as the character three months before her own death in 1992). That same year, Felicia Gallant became an alcoholic and then had an affair with her black publisher Marshall Lincoln Kramer III. Also, Frankie wed Cass, and in a dream sequence Frankie revisited his ex-flames Kathleen (Julie Osburn), Nicole (Anne Howard), and Cecile (Nancy Frangione) on his honeymoon! 

 Among other story lines of the early 1990s, Jake was shot during an affair with Paulina in 1990, and twins Vicky and Marley thought the other one did it, and Dean Frame was a teen delinquent seen romancing several young women. In 1992 there was an attempted assassination of Sen. Grant Harrison, while Christy Carson arrived as a man-stealing murderess. Felicia was kidnapped by a nutty fan in 1994, and then she and Cass opened a bookstore named Wallingfords in honor of their old pal. Jake and Paulina, after splitting up when she went with boring lan, got back together. And orderly Tomas Rivera had a fling with Maggie Cory. In 1995 came the rather ludicrous Justine story: Justine, an old flame of Rachel's new husband Carl Hutchins, came to reclaim him by disguising herself as Rachel. Inanity continued in 1996 with pseudo-vampires attacking people, and Jake donning drag (!). More normally, police Captain McNamara romanced nervous Lorna Devon, while Felicia decided to date her pal John Hudson. But the show seemed as desperate as ever, especially as a town stalker graphically killed Frankie Winthrop in August, and intimations of black magic abounded. 

Clearly NBC had faith in the show, giving it another contract extension into 1998. Finally cancelled by NBC in June 1999 due to low ratings..
