Um, 1987... SN and MBE as Steve and Kayla. DDH as RoJohn Brady. JE as Adrienne, CS as Shane, and PP as Kimberly.Maybe BW as Frankie and MBR as Jennifer? How much of the teen secene got shown back then? LOL, that's as much as I can even try to guess that far back.

Matt came on late in the year and I'm guessing the first 2 Jacks didn't get that much airtime. Peter, Kristian & Deidre were written out early in 87 so I doubt any would have cracked the top 10. Though the teens were used in moderation back then, there's an outside chance Reeves or Warlock might be in there.

Thanks Jason.

I am interested in this because SN has said the balance on Days would start being 80's-like. I look forward to this. From what I remember, I think the order of the top 10 may go:

Stephen Nichols

Mary Beth Evans

Drake Hogestyn

Patsy Pease

Charles Shaughnessy

Genie Francis

Judi Evans

Wally Kurth

John Aniston

Melissa Reeves

I may be wrong on the order but I think these might be the ten.

Hi JCar03. That's something I did not add up. I just checked my master episode list for you and 1987 begins with # 5389. Preemptions on 1/1, 7/3 and 11/26. The last episode in 1987 is # 5646. So that would be 258 episodes in total for 1987. Jason

Thanks for that number, hope it wasn't to much trouble to figure out, I was just curious. It would mean that Mary Beth Evans being the leader in the count appeared in 64% of the episodes that year. Compare that to last years ep count leader Peter Reckell who had 193 (of 253) and a 76%.

No trouble to look it up, Jcar. Just had to recheck my math to make sure I got the correct amount of episodes. My master episode guide file has a complete daily airdate listing from 1965 to the present, so I can easily look up any episode # or airdate and see what it is, as well as all of the preemptions.
