Former GL actress Nicolette Goulet has died
TVC
saddened to see that Nicolette Goulet has died. She played Dr. Meredith
Reade on GL back in the '80s. I met her a few years ago; she was sort of a
concierge at a time share resort here. I saw her face behind the counter and
kept seeing her in a lab coat in my head. I finally went over and asked if
she was an actress, and just as she was about to identify herself I realized
who she was. We talked for quite a while. She was a really warm, outgoing,
and fun lady. When her father, Robert Goulet, died last year, she was
mentioned in his obit as battling breast cancer. That's what she died from,
last Wednesday, April 17, at age 52. She left three children.

Bummer. I remember her.

That's too young for anyone to go, but I pray she is at peace now.

Though she won few fans, I really thought she did a creditable job
following Kate Mulgrew on RH.
And I loved her GL triangle with Rick and Phillip/ (I'm remembering
that right, right?).
I always thought she had incredible presence, and could have played a
strong, long-lasting core character if given the chance. I found her
very attractive.

I remember the name, but can't visualize her. Does anyone have a link
with a picture? I've looked on IMDb.

I have better :-). A classic Soap Opera Digest article from her time
on RH!
http://www.geocities.com/ryanshope75/articles/goulet80sod.html
Here is her grave information, with a pic
http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&GRid=26150613
Per:
http://www.geocities.com/Hollywood/Academy/8073/forcast.html
"Nicolette Goulet played Dr. Meredith Reede from 1987 to 1989.
Meredith was married to Rick Bauer and she was Fletcher Reade's
sister."
Youtube clips of her time on GL are here:
http://glmemories.blogspot.com/2007/07/to-tell-truth.html
There seem to be several clips of her at the bottom of the screen too,
via links.

Little does Rick know it's his best friend's (Phillip's) baby"
MarkH
seems to be in these vintage clips...and the production values seem
"state of the art" for the genre at the time. SUCH a breath-taking
contrast with the online episodes I have tried to watch lately. But I
like this classically soapy stuff.
And the performers! Elizabeth Dennehey! Carl Tye Evans. Daniel
Pilon! Much younger Ehlers/Aleksander/O'Leary. Just great stuff.
MarkH
tells Meredith that Rick now knows!"

she'd been up to.
Fred/Libby Barclay
Thanks for posting all that info Mark....you really are a living soap
database - I knew you'd have something, but didn't think you'd have all
that.
I do recall her now and am sorry for her untimely death....much too
young.
You're right about how good Guiding Light used to be with all the
wonderful actors. I know Michael Logan always said it was the best soap
on because of the talent. I miss all those old characters now....it
just seems a shadow of itself with no real story or direction anymore.
I watch a little, but usually leave it when the music starts.
Thanks again for the sites.

Sure are. She was a great partner for Rick, and unfortunately, fell
into a rebound fling with Phillip. But boy, did that story bring out
the tears.
And she had great chemistry with onscreen brother Fletcher, too. Just
Great! There was so much story that could have been explored in that
relationship. It was just on the edge of being slightly weird at one
point, before they moved the story into different directions.

I vividly remember the scene with Rick and Phillip in the hospital
hall deciding whether to save Meredith or the baby and how torn up
Phillip was, knowing the baby was his.

I saw ED's name in the credits, but never recognized her. Who did she
play?

I'm pretty sure that was her voice as one of the people in the "murder
circle"...at the airport. Maybe they showed her face in the original cut, but
edited it out? Trying to think of why she would get credit.

ED played Blake.

I think she meant who did she play on MEDIUM. But when Elizabeth Dennehy
played the GL character, had they made the name switchover from Chrissy to
Blake? ... They must have.

Yes, she returned to town as Blake Lindsay (a name no Springdingers
knew) and after a bit, it was revealed that she was Chrissy.
"In 1988, an adult Chrissy, now known as Blake Lindsey, anonymously
returned to Springfield after her relationship with her mother became
strained. Before her return, she had briefly been involved with Alan
Spaulding in Mexico and Alan sent her to Springfield to spy on his
son, Phillip (who had wrested power away from him) Hired as a PR agent
at Spaulding Enterprises. Blake befriended Johnny Bauer until he was
about to find out her true identity. While Alan had plans of regaining
control of Spaulding, Blake actually planned to double cross Alan and
keep power for herself, out of revenge for the way Alan treated her
late father. However soon she started to fall in love with Phillip.
One day, on a business trip with Phillip, a frustrated Blake got drunk
and apparently married Phillip's business partner, a sheik. The next
morning, however, she recognized the sheik as a barkeeper and realized
that Phillip set her up. Finally, after Blake got Phillip's confession
of his illegal takeover of Spaulding on tape and wanted to give it
Alan, Phillip’s Aunt Alexandra exposed her and forced her to cooperate
with her against Alan. When Phillip learned the truth, he bitterly
left Blake and, feeling guilty, she overdosed on sleeping pills and
was sent to Cedars where her former stepfather, Ed, discovered her
true identity."

She played the boss of the woman who drove her car off the parking garage.

Oh, I remember her, she was awful. I did not recognize Eliz D at all!
