Members JackPeyton Posted June 27, 2012 Members Share Posted June 27, 2012 I was conversing with a friend about Alison Sweeney's upcoming 20th anniversary with the show and how she is the current longest running cast member on the show without leaving and returning and got to thinking about what the longest consecutive runs are. At Days, aside from Sweeney there is obviously Frances Reid (40+ years) and John Clarke (just under 40 years). Dee Hall, Suzanne Rogers, kristian Alfonso and Peter Reckell all joined before her but left at one point or another (tho both of Suzannes were very short). Who at what shows has the longest consecutive run? Susan Lucci and Erika Slezak of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DRW50 Posted June 27, 2012 Members Share Posted June 27, 2012 Charita Bauer was on GL for 32 years. If you count radio, that goes up to 33 or 34. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members soapfan770 Posted June 27, 2012 Members Share Posted June 27, 2012 Larry Bryggman had clocked in 35 years before he quit ATWT in 2004, Patricia Bruder had roughly 35 years too and Henderson Forsythe had 30 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted June 27, 2012 Members Share Posted June 27, 2012 I'm never sure about counting Ames, Bruder, etc. since they left for a year or so (or were fired). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members soapfan770 Posted June 27, 2012 Members Share Posted June 27, 2012 Good point and I forgot about Bruder. I actually almost was going to say Jada Rowland for TSS until I remembered she was an early Susan on ATWT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ms. Chandler Quartermaine Posted June 27, 2012 Members Share Posted June 27, 2012 Stuart Damon was on for 31 years, and Leslie Charleston about 33 before she was put on recurring, I think after Rachel Ames they would be closest to her!

Members BoldBeauty Posted June 27, 2012 Members Share Posted June 27, 2012 ---> Do you count breaks where they re-cast the role with another actor while the original actor is off on maternity leave or shooting a movie etc? Cause on B&B, the only TWO people who has been there since the start without leaving or having another actor take over for a while is Susan Flannery and John McCook. --->Ronn Moss took a leave of absence in 1992 and Lane Davies stepped in to play Ridge for a few months. --->Katherine Kelly Lang took a break in 1987 and again in 1997 where Catherine Hickland and Sandra Ferguson stepped in as Brooke for a couple of months.

Members DRW50 Posted June 27, 2012 Members Share Posted June 27, 2012 If they were still working with the show I think they should still count. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
