What’s coming up for your characters? Peggy: I don’t know. Well, I’m dealing with...my story is that my character has Alzheimer’s. And it’s important to deal with it because all of America is dealing with it. They had a very laid back scene where I went “Well, if I lose my memory of today, I’ll just be happy.” And I said that that was terrible. You’ve got to put something in about how medical people are researching and there’s hope. You can’t tell the public something like that. I think we’re dealing with something that reaches the people in this country, and I hope we’re some help. John: Well, Victor is sort of dealing with domestic situations. He has a lot of people living in his house. J: He does a little house cleaning. He does a little of this, a little of that. We’ve heard Brady is moving out. John: I invited him to move back in the other day. That’s all I know. Caroline is about to have her first great-great grandchild. Peggy: And who’s going to have it? Gabi and Will. Peggy: I thought it was me. I’m everybody’s mother and grandmother. It’s goes on and on. Will you be involved in that story? Peggy: I sure hope so. You had a scene with Will recently. Peggy: Yes, that was a nice scene. We’re way ahead. John: Ridiculously. Peggy: We were much further ahead at one point. I came out of my dressing room and I saw Santa Claus. I had like a heart attack. I need to get presents. John: The other day I said, “Shouldn’t I have a coat on?” And they said, “It’s May.” Victor has a lot of funny lines, but he also seems to stick to the misogynistic lines a lot. What are your thoughts on that? John: Victor’s not a misogynist at all. He just has a very low tolerance for stupid women. Peggy: You? No, he’s not John: Victor’s very charming. He’s charming to you, isn’t he? Peggy: Oh, well. You were my love. John: You see? It’s just the Chloes and the Nicoles of the world that rub him the wrong way. What are some of your favorite scenes or storylines? John: One of the toughest jobs in the world is writing one of these things. Peggy: Yes John: I mean, I don’t envy these writers at all. Seventy pages a day, 52 weeks a year. It ain’t easy. So if you get one good scene a month, you’ve really got some good writers. So it all depends on the scene. Peggy: My favorite part was when he [Victor] came back into Salem, and all that let loose about Bo. It was very dramatic. Heavy stuff. And romantic. And that was kind of wonderful. John: Yeah, it was good stuff. Peggy: We had a good time doing that. Do any scenes or stories stand out that you didn’t like? Peggy: I guess I forgot them. John: The ones where you talk too much and the ones where you talk too little. A lot of our members complained about the scene when Victor was peeling potatoes. Peggy: Peeling potatoes John: I actually peeled them? Peggy: Doesn’t sound like him. I honestly don’t remember if they showed him doing it or just referenced that that’s what he was doing. John: I’m sure they didn’t show it. I wouldn’t put up with that. What would you like to see happen for your characters? John: Oh, I don’t know. It doesn’t really matter as long as it’s well-written. Peggy: I like to be there. I like to be involved. I think it would be interesting to have another romance. I’m not ten! I say that to Sami. “You’re hiding facts from me? I’m forgetful. I’m not fragile.” Why not? I don’t think it’s inappropriate, and I think it would be something interesting to the older audience. Well, he’s married now. John: Well, I”m not a fanatic about it. Peggy: Okay. John: Unfortunately, I think I am. Is there anyone else on the show you’d like to work with more? John: Well, for me the most fun...well, we have scenes together. Our scenes are wonderful, because we’ve worked together so long. Peggy: We really know each other. John: They’re still not as much fun as when I tear the bitch apart. |
