Members amybrickwallace Posted October 5, 2014 Members Share Posted October 5, 2014 Here is a 1991 feature on Justin Gocke from the Sun-Sentinel in Florida. I think this was only a few months before he left SB.http://articles.sun-sentinel.com/1991-10-04/features/9102090394_1_soap-star-sperm-bank-justin-gockeJustin Gocke - A Hollywood Success At 13 October 4, 1991 | By JEREMY MURPHY, Coral Springs High School It`s a hot Thursday afternoon. Waiting at New York City`s famed Rosie O'Grady's Irish restaurant, a redheaded, pint-sized soap star is noticed, five minutes early. He walks up to the table, introduces himself, then sits down and orders a soda. His name is Justin Gocke, and if you don`t recognize him now, you will. Not only is he a soap star, but he`s going to be a movie star. And he has only just become a teen-ager. Justin, at age 13, has gotten farther in his acting career than most actors go in a lifetime. Working steadily since age 7, Gocke is fast becoming one of the biggest child actors in the industry. After all, it is not every day that a 13-year-old has an Emmy award sitting in his bedroom, or flies to Australia to film a feature movie for two months. But for Justin, it`s all in a day's work. Justin is best known for his role on Emmy award-winning soap opera Santa Barbara, where he portrays prodigal son Brandon Capwell, a role that garnered Gocke the Emmy in 1989. "Santa Barbara has been a great experience for me," Justin says. "It has given me a lot of acting experience, experience I plan to use in other things." The road to success started at an early age for Justin, who made his first TV appearance in the acclaimed ABC movie The Burning Bed with Farrah Fawcett. "We were only going to try it for a while," Justin explains, referring to the time when he and his brothers and sister got involved in the entertainment industry. "They didn't really like it. I was the only one who enjoyed it." Soap operas and commercials, however, are taking a back seat to his next project. Justin and his mother traveled to Australia during the spring where Justin filmed the upcoming movie Moonride. "We just got back from filming it," Justin says, proudly. "My character goes to visit my grandfather, and while he`s there, his grandfather dies. He and his friends go to his wake, and then they accidentally resurrect him."Moonride, also starring Al Lewis of The Munsters, is to open this Christmas. However, Justin isn't leaving the soap world behind. He is still featured heavily on Santa Barbara, where his character is caught between his real mother and adoptive mother. Lately, he has been dealing with the fact that his adoptive mother, Gina (Robin Mattson), robbed a sperm bank and impregnated herself with the sperm of her ex-husband. "I can't believe she would rob a sperm bank!" Justin says, laughing. "Brandon is a good guy. If I had to change him, though," the actor says with a mischievous smile, "I'd make him into a little evil kid. Brandon's getting bad. He's been suspended from school a couple of times. I'd like to see him be not such a nice kid anymore." Success hasn't changed the young actor much. Justin lives in a quiet suburb outside of Los Angeles with his parents, an older sister and brother. His other brother resides at West Point Military Academy in New York. Justin mainly enjoys hanging out with his friends, playing soccer and rollerblading. But more than anything, Justin likes just being a kid. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members amybrickwallace Posted October 8, 2014 Members Share Posted October 8, 2014 Thanks for posting that - that was the episode that won him the Emmy in 1989. To think that Pat and Vanna are still on WHEEL after all these years - and they don't look all that different!! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members amybrickwallace Posted October 14, 2014 Members Share Posted October 14, 2014 Jed Allan, best known to us SB fans as the final and definitive CC Capwell, can now be seen in reruns on MeTV. They are showing Celebrity Bowling, which was Jed's side gig while starring as Don Craig on DAYS back in the 70s. Even if your area doesn't carry MeTV, you can watch CB episodes on their website. Gotta love Jed's plaid leisure suits and platform shoes!!!http://metvnetwork.com/videos/celebrity-bowling 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members amybrickwallace Posted October 28, 2014 Members Share Posted October 28, 2014 Boy, that Robert story sure had everyone in a tizzy, didn't it? I'm surprised Eden didn't go all the way with him - in a good way. She didn't cheat on Cruz, at least physically. But it sure was a big emotional entanglement that took up a good portion of story for 1989 and 1990. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members amybrickwallace Posted October 29, 2014 Members Share Posted October 29, 2014 Thanks especially for the article about A. He and Leslie are still happily married today. Their youngest daughter, Ren, has a couple of songs on iTunes - she has a gorgeous voice, too!! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
