CLASSIP CLIP: Reuben's "Dream Street" Fantasy On ANOTHER WORLD (1990)

In January 1990 Torrey McClinton guest-starred on ANOTHER WORLD as a Michael Jackson look-a-like guiding angel who showed Reuben Lawrence (Clayton Prince) the way to "Dream Street" in a fantasy sequence which played out over a few episodes after Reuben was knocked unconscious. Ronnie (B.J. Jefferson), Tess (Kasi Lemmons), Courtney (Valarie Pettiford, who made her TRUE BLOOD debut last night), Zack (James Pickens Jr.), Esther (Sandra Reaves-Phillips, who sang "Believe In Yourself") and much of the cast were featured as well.

In the episode, titled "In the Evening," Eric (Alexander SkarsgÄrd) makes a last-ditch effort to save an ailing Nora (Lucy Griffiths). A tragedy close to home forces Sam (Sam Trammell) to ignore Alcide's (Joe Manganiello) warning and return to Bon Temps. Jessica (Deborah Ann Woll) shows her gratitude to James (Luke Grimes), a fellow incarcerated vamp, while an emboldened Sarah (Anna Camp) exacts a measure of revenge on Jason (Ryan Kwanten).

Valarie Pettiford's Busy Fall: Two Recurring TV Roles and a New Album

The talented and beautiful Valarie Pettiford, known to daytime fans for her roles as Sheila Price in ONE LIFE TO LIVE and Courtney Walker in ANOTHER WORLD, will be dominating the small screen this fall.  The ubiquitous actress will be appearing in recurring roles on two shows on two major networks, with others soon to be announced. Valarie can be seen on the third season of HBO’s TREME and CBS’s new show THE GOLDEN BOY, starring Chi McBride, who has been waiting ten years to work with Valarie. After the first day’s shoot with McBride (she plays his wife), Valarie went back to her dressing room to find a massive, six-foot tall arrangement of flowers with a card attached that simply read, “Finally.”
