I was just thinking about some soap characters from the past who I loved that are usually forgotten about now and rarely mentioned.

 

Who are your favorite past soap characters who it seems like nobody else remembers?

 

Some of Mine to start us off:

 

Cindy Harrison (Another World)

Georgie Phillips (One Life to Live)

Faith Roscoe (GH)

For existing soaps:

 

Leanna Love

 

Margo Lynley

 

David Banning

 

Lee and Gail Baldwin

 

Julia Barrett 

 

For limbo soaps:

 

Gloria Marsh 

 

Tim Dillon

 

Mark Dalton 

 

Brenda McGillis

 

Wanda Webb

 

Jason Webb

 

Larry Wolek

 

The list for departed soaps would take half the page.

Alex Marshall and Greta Von Amberg

....I tend to like ones that have some other fans....

 

But, I have to agree with MrVixen on one...and it's the only one I can think of. Faith Roscoe!!! She was a badass chick! She needs to be brought back from the dead.

 

Also. Most people forget Trevor "Uncle Porkchop" Dillon from AMC. Loved him too. He got frozen..Frozen porkchop.

That's two for Julia. Maybe someone at GH will read this thread.

[Mr. Vixen]

[AdelaideCate007]

Trevor wasnt forgotten. Amanda mentioned him frequently. She named her son after him and his death was the main reason why she was distant from Janet, which was brought up whenever Janet popped up and interacted with her

B&B

Grant Chambers

CJ Garrison

B&B:

Zack Hamilton, Taylor's brother. Has he even been mentioned since he left?

I liked Justus as well. Especially the first Justus.

 

I just saw some scenes with him, Keesha, and Mary Mae the other morning and they were great.

My mind also goes to GH (since i consider One Life a departed soap until it actually goes into production and gets on something.) but the first two that came to my mind was Bobbie Spencer Jones and Audrey Hardy. I think Elizabeth mentioned Audrey semi-occasionally but i never hear about Bobbie. they were two very important characters on the show for several decades Audrey started in the 60's and went to the early 2000's while Bobbie started in the late 70's and went to the late-2000's.

Bobbie is heard being paged on the loud speaker every so often at the hospital. AJ talked about her to Michael this past fall. Audrey is Liz's permanent babysitter. Last time I heard her mentioned was taking the kids to Disney World during the recent virus crisis
