Parallel time: characters you would have like to have seen

[TNickey2003]

Referring to characters who were not featured in Parallel Time during the series' run.

The Parallel Time track, being a timeline where any number of other possibilities, could potentially have included the presence of characters who for some reason were not included in the PT storyline either because they were dead or missing in real time, or otherwise just not a part of the PT storyline.

That's not fair, it saids the maximum is 10, I have to vote under that, that's so unfair!!!!!

I chose Victoria, Jason, Joe and Burke.

By the time the parallel time story rolled around, I was really missing the early characters and they would have been the most refreshing to see, IMO. Also, it would have given Elizabeth, Carolyn and Roger more to do, instead of making the whole thing about Angelique. And I would have liked to have seen Barnabas interact with the PT versions of those characters.

I had that number of choices before I added some names I thought of later. I wanted to increase the number of choices one could choose but the system had problems. Sorry about that.

I chose the following ppl: Vickie, Burke, Sam, Jason, Mrs. Johnson and Joe.

I would've had Vickie be evil and married to the equally evil Burke.  Sam and Joe would have been nice to see, particularly since Maggie was so prominant in that plotline.  Imagine her running off to Joe, her ex, when Quentin started getting squirrly.  And they could have made Sam a successful painter, or at the very least a successful Graphic Artist working for Collins Enterprises.  Imagine Quentin being his father-in-law's boss!  It would have been cool to see a NICE Jason married to Liz-what a challenge that would have been for Dennis, to play the OPPOSITE of sleazy Jason.  But he would have been able to pull if off nicely I'm sure.  And how can you NOT have the lovably grumbling Mrs. Johnson?!!     She could have been the cook since Hoffman was the maid.  One choice that wasn't there that I also think would have been VERY interesting to see is a RESPONSIBLE Buzz Hackett.  Maybe make him a high powered exec at Collins Enterprises who's shagging Carolyn on the side?

i picked vicki,laura and mrs.johnson.

charcters like burke,jason and joe would have been great but sadly by this point i think that they had been gone for so long that there would not have been much viewer recognition.or at least their reappearance wouldn't have had much impact(to viewers at the time).vicki's a stretch but because she had been so pivotal it might have had some impact.laura had recently appeared in 1897 so she would have been fresh in viewers' minds.and of course mrs.johnson just needed to be there.period.

the producers seemed to like to cast actors who had appeared in the storyline immediately before it.thus alot of the leviathan actors show up in 1970pt.this was very short-sighted thinking but it seems to be the way things worked because laura collins was the only character who was away for years and showed up in a later storyline.

I voted for Megan Todd because I always do.   Who's conspicuous by his absence, on the list?  Barnabas!

I just tested the feature and it was working fine.    What may have confused you is that you cannot opt to change the number of maximum votes per user once a poll has been posted.  If you think you're going to gauge it according to the number of poll options, I can only suggest that you use the Preview feature to study the total number of options in your poll before submitting it.

I guess you're saying that there should have been a PT Barnabas as well are our own RT Barnabas?  Interesting premise, except that to give Frid even MORE dialog to forget would have been cruel!   

All kidding aside though, it really wouldn't have worked if OUR Barnabas had been present--how would he explain he was a cousin from England?  Don't you think PT Barnabas would have been like, "Wa....it a minute!"?

What WOULD have been fun to see however is ANOTHER PT plotline that say Quentin went in to and have a PT Barnabas THERE! 

[Barnabas'sBride]

For a PT Barnabas....maybe Julia could've gone to parallel time and found out that PT Barnabas killed her counterpart instead of allowing her to try and cure him. He succeeded in gaining Vicki's attention...and eventually turned her (knowing he would never be cured). We would have vampire Victoria. Now wouldn't that be interesting?

[michael c]

vampire victoria!!!

that's alot to take in.

my parallel time vicki wouldn't necessarily have to have been a supernatural character.i'm picturing the polar opposite of 'real time' vicki.

vain,pleasure seeking,sarcastic and cruel.that would be a vicki i'd love to see.

a cool new p/t wardrobe wouldn't hurt either.psychedelic,lots of jewelry,maybe some fur.anything besides that god-forsaken dress.

[Raineypark]

A hippy-dippy Willie Loomis.....granny glasses, bell bottoms, fur vest, 'juana instead of whiskey.....

 It would have been too hysterical to watch, knowing our Johnny.

[AndreDuPres]

Man, I'd love to see Diabolos again.  I loved it when Ang went down to Hell in '68.  I don't know how they'd fit Satan into the PT plot, but it would be cool to see.

[PennyDreadful]

Ah but would the Devil and hell in PT be the "Parallel-Time devil and hell" or the "SAME" as in normal time??.....Weeeeiirrirrrd.....

I would have loved to see PT Nicholas Blair.  Judging from how sexy those scenes were where he hypnotized Carolyn and brought her into the basement of Collinwood to summon Daniel Roget, I think the two of them had a really nice chemistry that could have worked out well in PT, perhaps after [spoiler]Willie was killed by Angelique[/spoiler]
