Character Background
Lindsay Rappaport is the perennial bridesmaid, but never the bride. Lindsay is born Lindsay Farrell off-screen to a stern and disapproving father, Dennis Farrell, who doted on her younger sister Melanie or "Lanie", while shunning Lindsay. Even after Lindsay falls in love and marries hotshot lawyer Sam Rappaport (Kale Browne) and raises his two children, Lindsay is disappointed and angered when Sam's falls out of love with her and in love with Nora Hanen (Hillary B. Smith). A series of desperate affairs followed for Lindsay, including one with brother-in-law Colin MacIver, and the loveless marriage of Sam and Lindsay finally ended as their two children reached adulthood.

Famous quotes containing the words character and/or background:
“The true worth of a race must be measured by the character of its womanhood.”
—Mary Mcleod Bethune (1875–1955)
“Silence is the universal refuge, the sequel to all dull discourses and all foolish acts, a balm to our every chagrin, as welcome after satiety as after disappointment; that background which the painter may not daub, be he master or bungler, and which, however awkward a figure we may have made in the foreground, remains ever our inviolable asylum, where no indignity can assail, no personality can disturb us.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
