25 Cast Members from "Another World" Have Passed Away
"Another World", a beloved American television series, premiered from May 4, 1964 to June 25, 1999 on NBC screens. Transporting viewers to the fictional town of Bay City, the show's inception featured announcer Bill Wolff's poignant declaration, "We do not live in this world alone but in a thousand other worlds." Conceived by the visionary Irna Phillips in collaboration with William J Bell, the series was produced by Procter and Gamble Productions at NBC Studios, located at 1268 East 14th Street in Brooklyn. The series boasts a rich ensemble cast, many of whom continue to leave their mark on the entertainment industry. As time passes, we mourn the loss of some of these remarkable talents, but their contributions live on, shaping the television landscape. Today, we honor these luminaries whose roles have brought to life the enduring legacy of "Another World."

It was a sad day when NBC canceled Another World. I started watching it and Days of Our Lives as a child alongside my Grandmother.

Same. I spent many a summer afternoon with my Nana sitting in her hot living room silently while we watched her 'stories' together, the good ole 90s NBC lineup of Days, Another World and Santa Barbara. I'll never forget the day AW ended, 5 minutes left and Nana got up from her recliner and went to the bathroom and came back after it had finished, acting like she didn't have a care in the world. She'd never admit it but she couldn't bring herself to watch it end forever. Or maybe it was the gorilla that just freaked her out. That might have actually been it. lol

NBC had approached P&G about acquiring ownership of the series, which P&G said, "No," and NBC pulled the plug on Another World and replaced it with Passions, a soap that NBC had an ownership stake in, and AW fans didn't stick around for as Passions was targeted to a more younger crowd, and presented storylines not found on most other traditional soaps. Days Of Our Lives stuck around for a few more years as NBC's last "legacy soap," till its move over to Peacock streaming service in 2022.
Cass Winthrop was THE MAN.

Some of the KZread videos have pretty good quality. Remember, they weren’t filmed to be aired in HD. I have never understood why P&G didn’t air this on some channel, there are so many now. I used to watch it in The Soap Opera Network, it should be brought back. A lot of baby boomers are retirees now and would love to go back and see storylines they missed or loved. They are missing a great opportunity.

This was my favorite. Best acting. And interesting story lines. Sorry to see it leave. Nothing else replaced it.
Major omission of Jacqueline Courtney as Alice Matthews Frame.
Ugh stupid AI and lack of fact checking. Anne Heche played Vicky AND Marley. Half the pictures shown depict Marley and if you're a fan of AW you can tell which is which, even in a picture.
I loved Paul Stevens who played Brian Bancroft. He was terrific. I was so upset when they canceled Another World. Miss it to this day. Watched it faithfully.
I had the pleasure of meeting Charles Keating and Victoria Wyndham when they performed "Couplets" in Columbus, Ohio. It was a show of poetry, prose, and song based on the relationship of their characters Carl and Rachel. My sister was the one who arranged their appearance. Charles and Victoria were sweet and gracious people. Then, just after AW was cancelled (😢), Charles and his wife Mary appeared at a fundraiser for Mary's relative who had cancer. The relative lived in the next county over from me. They, along with their son, were the evening's entertainment. They were so nice and kind. My sister developed a friendship with Charles that lasted until his death.
I used to watch the show with my grandma. Loved it!
On AW Anne Heche played twins, Vicky and Marley.
I’m 51 years old and remember watching this show with my grandma when I wasn’t in school

Ray Liotta, even at such a young age, was a phenomenal actor

Oh how I remember my Grandmother and my mother quickly making a pot of tea so they could watch ANOTHER WORLD,,, when I heard the soap was ending I recorded the last two show on VHS and the next time I was back home I placed it on my mother's grave. Just to let her know her show had ended... I felt anyone can buy flowers but this had a special meaning.. I'm sure she was watching and had a great smile and laugh from heaven knowing what I did...
Another World was a great soap opera and all of the characters were great I use to watch this soap opera with my Mother for years sorry to see it end ❤
omg i remember the shows were so good..we would race home from school mid day to watch just 15 min or more if we could
My Nana loved this show and The Edge of Night. I remember watching them with her. Great memories ❣️❣️❣️
I watched in the sixties and early seventies. Lived in suburbs of nyc and would see the actors in shops and on train. Good memories 🙂
This was my grandmother's favorite. Every afternoon she and Gertrude, who worked for her, watched this together. She would prefer you not telephone during "Another World" time.❤

My grandma watched it when we had a nap.Our grandma was our babysitter so dad and mom could work.I watched it later on when I got older.Great stuff.I miss it and As the world turns.Santa Barbara.
In the early 1980s I found myself home from work with the flu the week before Christmas. I happened to catch Another World while languishing on the couch. Such lavish Christmas decorations! What extravagant parties!What gorgeous gowns! I was hooked! Fortunately I didn't have to work between Christmas and New Years so I got 2 solid weeks of the show before heading back. Thank goodness for our VCR! For several years I taped and watched it when I got home. Who could forget Felicia and Case...and Tony the Tuna!!
I am 73 and watched 'Another World' as a child and teen. It was my favorite show.❤ These characters were family.❤
I watched with my Mom since I was a little girl, very upset when they canceled. So many great actors that are truly missed. May they RIP. “note to give proper credit Carmen Duncan did not portray Jamie Frame, she replaced Beverly McKenzie as Iris Carrington”
My favorite soap operas.
Steve and Alice were the first Super Couple on Daytime TV. Douglass Watson won an Emmy for Best Actor in a Daytime Drama .
I grew up on Another World and Days. ❤️❤️❤️❤️
This is heart breaking tears to my eyes I hope they are at eternal rest with God ❤
I guess we all watched with our grandmas!

Carmen Duncan did NOT play Jamie Frame! Jamie Frame was a male character who was portrayed by a series of ten actors (most notably Laurence Lau and Russell Todd). Iris Wheeler was portrayed by three actresses, all of whom have passed on. If you're gonna make a video, at least get the basics accurate.
It was originally told in Soap Digest that Doug Watson had a heart attack on the set and died.

It's amazing that The Proctor and Gamble Company is no longer in the television business, hence the words "soap opera". ☹️
My mom wasn’t allowed to watch the show at home so she would sneak over to my Grandma’s and wait for my Grandpa to go to sleep to watch it, she got me hooked.
I think the computer blew a gasket. Jamie Frame portrayed by Carmen Duncan? I don't think you could get that more wrong. Also, video of Alex Wheeler is shown instead of Brian Bancroft.
Jamie Frame was a male.
