another world past TV show

TV show description:
Set in Bay City, this long-running soap opera was the first to air one hour episodes and follows the loves and losses of the Matthews, Cory, Hudson, Frame, and Winthrop families.

Created by Irna Phillips, the series begins with the death of the wealthy William Matthews (Joseph Gallison). His wife Liz (Audra Lindley, later Irene Dailey) despised her late husband’s family, especially working-class brother Jim (Shepperd Strudwick, later Hugh Marlowe) and his wife Mary (Virginia Dywer). The tension and disagreements between the two families provides much of the storyline’s initial conflict.

As the series continues, the lives and loves of Jim’s children — Russ (Sam Groom, later Robert Hover and David Bailey), Alice (Jacqueline Courtney), and Pat (Beverly Penberthy) — become much more prominent. The love triangle between Alice, businessman Steve Frame (George Reinholt) and the scheming Rachel (Robin Strasser, Maggie Impert, Victoria Wyndham) helped the show gain popularity.

Later, Rachel finds love with magazine editor Mackensie “Mac” Cory (Douglas Watson) despite the protests of his daughter Iris Carrington (Beverlee McKinsey), who was the same age as her step-mother. Mac and Rachel’s children, Amanda (Sandra Ferguson) and Matthew (Matt Crane), follow suit and endure their own trials and tribulations in love with artist Sam Folwer (Robert Kelker-Kelley, Danny Markel and Brian Green) and Josie Watts (Alexandra Wilson).

The series also spawned the first soap opera spin-offs (Somerset and Texas). Cast members that went on to film and television careers afterward include Christine Beranski, Kelsey Grammar, Anne Heche, Ray Liotta, Lindsay Lohan, Luke Perry, Brad Pitt, and Kyra Sedgwick.

Series Finale:     
Episode #8,891
Cass and Lila are finally married. Rachel reminisces with Carl and remarks, “All’s well that ends well.” She adds a photo to a group of framed family pictures, and walks around the living room, surveying collections of photos of characters from the past and present. The two embrace, kiss, turn out the lights and climb the stairs, arm in arm. The scene fades to black and and we see a still frame shot of Mac Cory (Douglass Watson) with his glass lifted in toast.
First aired: June 25, 1999

If anyone could answer this question I would appreciate the info. It was a male character in the early to mid 90’s that was involved with Iris. I wanna say he was a reporter because for some reason in my mind I keep picturing him in a fedora and a trench coat. If I could at least get the character’s name

I loved Another Word back during the days of Steve and Alice, and Rachael as well as listening to Ada’s good advice. Then came those great days with Mac and Rachel. The show has been gone now nearly ten years and I still miss it.
