Alex is determined not to let the past repeat itself and lose her again. During her visit, she reconnected with her first love, self-made millionaire Alex Wheeler. The debut episode featured Iris on a plane, leaving Houston after visiting her son Dennis, who had relocated to Texas with his new love to open an art gallery. Within a matter of weeks, Iris reconnected and became romantically involved with her first love, Alex Wheeler ( Bert Kramer).Ī slew of characters debuted on Another World in the months prior to August 1980, in the hope that when they eventually moved over to Texas, they would have made enough impact with viewers so they would watch Texas, too. Iris initially set out to visit her grown son Dennis ( Jim Poyner), who had relocated from Bay City to Houston.
Rauch then chose to have the show revolve around the popular Another World character Iris Cory Carrington, played by Beverlee McKinsey. The Corringtons' initial concept was for a show set in the antebellum South entitled Reunion, but NBC wanted something more in line with the hugely successful CBS primetime soap Dallas, which was dominating the ratings. Rauch held the title of executive producer for the parent series and its spin-off until 1981. It is a spin-off of Another World, co-created by head writers John William Corrington and Joyce Hooper Corrington, and executive producer of Another World at the time, Paul Rauch.
Texas is an American daytime soap opera, which aired on NBC from August 4, 1980, until December 31, 1982, sponsored and produced by Procter and Gamble Productions at NBC Studios in Brooklyn, New York City.
