Susan Lucci blames Brian Frons; excited about the future.“We shot the [DEVIOUS MAIDS] pilot and everyone was very hands-on. Marc [Cherry] was on the set at all times. It’s pretty hilarious. In a few weeks, after the upfronts on May 15, we should know for sure.”
Her other role as host of DEADLY AFFAIRS is equally delicious, albeit more ironic. It’s reenactments of the crimes of passion committed by real-life Erica Kanes.
To seduce her into taking the gig, Schleiff, she said, “showed up at our first meeting with a full-sized cardboard Erica Kane with blood all over her hands. It was love at first sight.”
Speaking of blood, what about ex-ABC daytime president Brian Frons, who killed ALL MY CHILDREN?
A native of Pittsfield, Massachusetts, Adrian Pasdar's promising football career was derailed after he was injured in a car accident at age 19. He made his film debut in the 1986 blockbuster Top Gun, but his breakout role came a year later as a reluctant vampire in the indie flick Near Dark. Pasdar turned to the small screen for meaty parts, winning kudos as the corrupt title character in the short-lived 1996 series PROFIT. His marriage to Dixie Chicks singer Natalie Maines and a recurring role on JUDGING AMY as a dangerous love interest for the title character raised his profile in the 2000s, and suddenly the veteran actor was enjoying name recognition for the first time in his career. His career skyrocketed, however, when, in 2006, he took on the role of high-flying politician Nathan Petrelli in the NBC smash hit HEROES.
