Ted Shackelford plays Jeffrey now, not William anymore.

Oops. Brain spasm.

Fascinating idea for a thread!

Thank you.

Great idea.

Minus Kimberly McCullough, Debbi & Darnell, Kristian Alfonso, JKJ, Peter Reckell, Nancy Lee Grahn, and Ingo Rademacher, its like all the people I hate on soaps combined into one easy to use list.

There's not a single person in the top 20 that I really like.

As a data oriented person, can I say how much I love this thread! Thank you.

I put a Top 10 Together every month over at my group. Its a lot of work and this percent thing would of never happened without the use of Excel which is my best friend for these counts!

you can really tell what the most unbalanced soaps are by that list. Not surprised with PSSNS and GH at all

jcar03 you never fail to impress me. It's so simple, yet so well put together. Good job!

For some reason it seemed like dorian(oltl) was on alot more than 78 episodes so far this year.

You dont have the lowest among contract actors on every soap?

I love it when people post big epic lists like these. Thanks a lot!

If the actors listed 40-50 were the top ten, daytime would be a much improved place.
