Well that didn't take long. Ricky Paull Goldin, who it was only recently announced is exiting Guiding Light when his deal runs out later this month, has been cast on All My Children in the contract role of Dr. Jake Martin.

Jake, of course, is the younger brother of Tad, and in his last two incarnations was played by Michael Lowry and J. Eddie Peck's impeccable hair. Jake's love interests have included Liza, Gillian and (of course) Greenlee.

Goldin, who cut his daytime teeth on Another World back in the day, is expected to make his AMC debut by the end of April.

I certainly hope that ABC does not expect RGP to bring up ratings for AMC which will not happen.

If they whip up some promos calling him the real Ricky Paull Goldin as Alicia Keys' latest single plays, maybe it will.

I wonder if they'll tout him as the REAL Jake Martin

Another reason for me not to watch AMC. I am not a fan of RPG. I cant see him as Jake Martin.

Umm...I don't know.

I just can't see RPG as the son of Joe and Ruth Martin.

I think he would make a good Jake!

RPG is a good actor and I think he would fit in the mold.

I would have said RPG is hispanic. I did not say that. RPG looks hispanic. He is all wrong for the part of Jake Martin.

Well, you said something about the characte he's playing looking hispanic, which neither he or the character is. What the hell do you expect people to think with a comment like that?

Well......

People give him a chance. God. Hes a great actor and I think he would like I said before have good chemsitry with alot of people.
