Are you sure that it was Randy Robbins on Where the Heart Is?   I had thought that it was Rex Robbins, who I know did appear on that show.

Later (toward the end of the show's run), Mr. Robbins substituted for David O'Brien as Dr. Steve Aldrich on The Doctors.

 

A few more substitutions have been:   Cynthia Belgrave (substituting for Lillian Hayman) as Sadie Gray on One Life to Live.

Nancy Frangione substituting for Andrea Evans as Tina on One Life to Live.

Justin Dees substituting for Gerald Anthony as Marco Dane on One Life to Live.

Ellen Barber substitution for Claire Mallis (I think, although it could have been Robin Strasser) as Dr. Dorian Lord on One Life to Live.

Allan Manson substituting for Henderson Forsythe as Dr. David Stewart on As the World Turns.

Judith Barcroft and Jada Rowland substituted for Marie Masters on As the World Turns.   (Jada Rowland had earlier played the role full-time.)

Delphi Herrington substitution for Judith Barcroft on Ryan's Hope.    (The character was named Barbara.)

Willie Apel substituted for both Barbara Britton as Fran Gordon on One Life to Live and for Mary Fickett as Ruth Martin, R. N. on All My Children.

I've seen Randy Robbins in three different sources, so perhaps Rex was using Randy at the time, or they just played different characters.

Willi Burke took ober when Barbara Britton passed away(I believe).  Pretty sure I saw all of those in the TR thread and have them, but thank you for letting us know, Danfling.

 

Dr. Bill Stearn arrived in today's second episode dated April 1, 1970.
