The wonderful actress starred in a horror flick called The Taking of Deborah Logan 2014 available for streaming on Tubi TV android app. Anyone up for a scare it's real terrifying and she gives an amazing performance as an alzheimers patient documentary style flick.

JL was fabulous as Opal.
There were times when I
thought she carried scened
becausr Lucci was going thru
the motions.

Her scenes with Palmer, Adam
and Tad are the stuff that made
Soaps so popular.

A prime example of how good a recast can be even when it’s a hard act to follow.

Larson I think softened Opal a lot. They humor was still there but Opal was sweeter when Jill took over.

Dorothy Lyman was also excellent
in the role of Opal...

I've seen this film and she is brilliant in it. The film is genuinely creepy too. I only thought it kinda lost a little towards the end. But its so worth watching for her performance.

Yes she was. I think that’s why Jill making the role her own stands out . DL was a hard act to follow . I didn’t particularly love that Opal but Lyman was brilliant.
