I saw an old episode of General Hospital this past Saturday, and I have to admit that I actually miss Tamara Braun playing Carly. I know Laura Wright is pretty good in the role too, but I just thought how there is such a difference in their nature in the role and I actually prefer Tamara. What do you think?

I also prefer Tamara Braun.... I agree Laura Wright is a good actress but Tamara just gave more of herself to the role. She connected with the other characters more too...... personal opinion though......

I liked Sarah Brown, the original Carly. I haven't liked any of the recasts, although I think Laura Wright's Carly would be very close to the original if not for the piss-poor writing. Tamara Braun played Carly as too entitled and smug, which didn't make sense given the character's history of low self-esteem, but unfortunately the writers have stuck with the notion that Carly is braveandstrongandloveswithherwholeheart and made her into a total Mary Sue.

Sarah Brown (the original Carly is by far the best) I did not care for Tamara Braun at all! Of course when Laura Wright took over I was initially unhappy but now I like her. I do think Tamara really did a better job of being "Carly" but Laura Wright is pretty good. All in all no one beats Sarah Brown.

I really liked Tamara Braun, but Sara Brown was the best! However, Laura Wright brings some added depth and maturity to Carly. Carly has grown from that angry young woman she was when she first came to Port Charles (Sara Brown), to a loving wife and mother (often with some crazy stuff in between - Tamara Braun), to a complete loon (that short-lived Carly that looked like she was a carton a day smoker), to a full blown independent woman who really owns all of herself, the good and the bad and makes no apologies for it (Laura Wright). I'm quite happy with Laura Wright, I think she's doing an excellent job portraying just about the most tumultuous character on daytime.

I hated Tamara Braun when she first took over for Sarah Brown. However, by the end of her run, I really liked her too. The same thing has happened with Laura Wright. I didn't care for her at first, but I think she's really good on the show. Remember the girl who took over for Tamara Braun for about a month right before Laura Wright? She was sooo horrible! She couldn't act, couldn't cry, and was so hard to look at! LOL

Sarah was the best Carly. Laura is good but I never liked Tamara playing Carly.

This Carly has taken the role and made it her own and I like her but Tamara and Sarah were the best Carly's, they were hard to replace and the viewers seem to have taken a liken to each Carly they had with exception of the one that didn't work out.

I am still quite a new fan, so the only Carly I've known is Laura Wright. I like her, but then I have no one else to compare her to for the role either.

Tamara and Laura were good, but Sarah Brown IS Carly....everyone after her is just trying to be the way she was
