DAYS:

Peter Reckell as Bo Brady. Since he took over the role again I've not only liked Bo less, but began to dislike Hope as well.

Steve Wilder as Jack. Easily the worst actor ever on DAYS, and that says alot.

AW:

Kevin McClatchy as Nick. He seemed so out of place with the teen scene.

AHEM.

EILEEN DAVIDSON AS KELLY CAPWELL on SANTA BARBARA

We Went From this: Kellyn3-17.jpg

To This: Kellyn4-67.jpg

Easily, BY FAR the WORST Re-Cast of All-Time!!!!!!!

Some Other Notables:

ALL MY CHILDREN: (AMC has done a pretty good job with recasting IMO, since I've been a viewer, circa 1993)

David Forsyth as Jim Thomason (not their fault Roscoe quit, but he was SO flippin GOOD in the role)

ANOTHER WORLD:

PHILIECE SAMPLER AS DONNA LOVE (2nd WORST re-cast of ALL-TIME IMO)

Jensen Buchanan as Vicky Hudson (okay as Marley, but sucked donkey balls as my Vicky, played by two powerhouses before her)

Robin Christopher as Lorna Devon (too jarring after Alicia Coppola, though I LOVE Robin as Skye)

Jeff Philips as Matthew Cory

Laura Moss as Amanda Cory

Judi Evans as Paulina Cory (sorry, but Cali Timmins IS Paulina!)

Sally Spencer as MJ McKinnon

AS THE WORLD TURNS:

Susan Batten as Connor Walsh

Randy Mantooth as Hal Munson

Glynnis O'Connor as Margo Hughes (though she did grow on me)

Spencer Grammer as Lucy Montgomery

Jeffrey Meek as Craig Montgomery

Michael Cardelle as Rafi Ortega

BOLD AND THE BEAUTIFUL: (B&B also usually does pretty well with recasting)

Jeff Trachta as Thorne Forrester (prefer the other 2 BY FAR)

LOVING:

Margaret Mitchell as DinahLee

Christopher Cousins as Jack Alden

Celeste Holm as Isabelle Alden (though Holm is one of the greats, Augusta Dabney WAS Isabelle!)

Trevor St.John as Todd Manning

Tracy Melchior as Kelly Cramer

Heather Tom as Kelly Cramer (LOVE Tom, but she just wasn't Kelly to me)
