Members MarkH Posted July 10, 2008 Members Share Posted July 10, 2008 I'm on this "cataloging" kick (it is my OCD). I want to show how the soap universe is connected, by making a list of crossovers. I started a list (it is now ugly, unformatted, unordered). I'll pretty it up when it is more "canonical". I am only focusing, more or less, on current/recent soaps, but those with knowledge of long-dead soaps are welcome to add those too. What I am asking for is your help: What am I missing? Thanks to Y&RWorldTurner, All My Shadows, Jack Peyton, Jinx Avery, Sindacco, Zendall Fan (SON), Seth J. Bookey, K McC(Usenet) and an anonymous commenter at blogger.com for additions and changes. I am also indebted to the AWHP at this link. For brevity, I am treating GH and GH:Night Shift as pretty much the same show. See JP's notes below the table for additional detail, though The P&G shows frequently reference one another's towns (Bay City, Oakdale, Springfield), and the ABC shows do too (Port Charles, Llanview, and Pine Valley). The Bell shows also mention Los Angeles and Genoa City on one another's shows. Specific crossovers follow. The permanent record is at my blog. There you will also find alternative versions of the table that are sorted by show, and by year of first crossover. Here is the list I have so far: From To Character Year Notes AMC OLTL Skye Chandler 1998 (became a regular) OLTL GH Skye Chandler 2002 (became a Quartermaine sort of; married Alcazar) OLTL GH Marco Dane 1992 (became a regular) OLTL AMC/GH/PC Gretel Rae Cummings 1999 2000 2003 long story....

Members All My Shadows Posted July 10, 2008 Members Share Posted July 10, 2008 I've read that OLTL's Dr. Larry Wolek appeared on AMC during its first year in order to bring some of OLTL's viewers to the new show. And didn't OLTL's Sadie show up on AMC once to sing for someone's wedding or funeral? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JackPeyton Posted July 10, 2008 Members Share Posted July 10, 2008 Abby Carlton went from YR to BB. Joanna Manning, Laurens Mother, has gone from Y&R to B&B a few times. Dr Tim Reid, who was Laurens therapist on Y&R was Morgans on B&B. Emily from ATWT went to YR looking for Alison. (was Ali on Y&R? I think so...)

Members jinx_avery Posted July 10, 2008 Members Share Posted July 10, 2008 OL's Delilah Ralston went to AMC when Erica bought one of her 'Designs By Delilah'. GH's Steve Hardy would drop by Llanview OL's first year on the air, as did Larry Wolek to Pine Valley to get crossover viewers to AMC. Hank, Nora and Rachel Gannon were on Tad Martin's talk show and revealed Nora's affair with RJ, when Tad, Gloria March and Scott Chandler guested on OL. Dorian Lord went to AMC to buy "The National Intruder" from Adam Chandler. Sadie Gray went to AMC to sing at Frank Grant (Jesse's uncle) and Caroline Dixon's wedding.

Members JackPeyton Posted July 10, 2008 Members Share Posted July 10, 2008 from wiki (take it for what it is..) OLTL- Crossovers As with many other television series, One Life to Live has had a number of crossovers with other programs, both daytime and primetime. John Beradino from General Hospital appeared on One Life to Live in 1968 whenever Dr. Steve Hardy made the trip from Port Charles to Llanview to consult on Meredith Lord Wolek's blood disease. Michael Storm appeared as Dr. Larry Wolek on All My Children, shortly after its premiere in 1970, in an attempt to get fans of One Life to Live to watch ABC's new show. Lillian Hayman appeared as Sadie Gray on All My Children in the late 1970s. She sang at the wedding of Dr. Frank Grant and Caroline Dixon, R.N. William Mooney, All My Children’s lawyer Paul Martin, appeared on One Life to Live in 1979 to defend Victoria Lord, who was on trial for the murder of Marco Dane. Shelley Burch appeared on All My Children as Delilah Ralston when Erica Kane had ordered a dress from her company. Gerald Anthony reprised his One Life to Live character Marco Dane on General Hospital in 1993. Clint Ritchie, Robert S. Woods, and John Loprieno appeared as Clint, Bo, and Cord in a dream sequence on primetime sitcom Roseanne in 1994. Michael E. Knight, Teresa Blake, and Shane McDermott appeared on One Life to Live in his All My Children characters, (Tad Martin, Gloria Marsh, R. N., and Scott Chandler) in 1996, when Hank, Nora, and Rachel were paneled guests on his talk show, The Cutting Edge. Tad appeared again in 2003 for the Fan February show. Elaine Princi and Robin Strasser both made appearances on All My Children as Dorian Cramer Lord, in 1991 and 2003 respectively. Randolph Mantooth appeared in One Life to Live in 1997, as detective Alex Masters from The City, to help Bo track down a suspect in New York City. Linda Dano's Rae Cummings made sporadic appearances on ABC's four soaps: All My Children in 2000 and 2001, Port Charles in 2000, and General Hospital in 2001, 2002 and 2003. Robin Christopher took the character of Skye Chandler from All My Children to One Life to Live in 1999, and then to General Hospital in 2001. David Canary appeared on One Life to Live in 2001 as Adam Chandler, during the storyline revealing Rae Cummings to be Skye Chandler's mother. Jill Larson appeared on One Life to Live on December 19, 2003 as Opal, as she was seen shopping at Logan's Department store, located in between Pine Valley and Llanview. All My Children and One Life to Live had a complicated "baby swap" storyline from 2004 - 2005, which involved several characters from both soaps. In the year to follow, a handful of actors/characters from each soap made sporadic appearances on the other. These included: Julia Barr (Brooke English/AMC), Justin Bruening (Jamie Martin/AMC), David Canary (Adam Chandler/AMC), Phil Carey (Asa Buchanan/OLTL), Brock Cuchna (Paul Cramer #1/OLTL), Bobbie Eakes (Krystal Carey/AMC), Melissa Fumero (Adriana Cramer/OLTL) Dan Gauthier (Kevin Buchanan/OLTL), Alexa Havins (Babe Carey Chandler/AMC), Vincent Irizarry (David Hayward/AMC), Michael E. Knight (Tad Martin/AMC), Michael McKenzie (Mr. Emerson/OLTL), Shane McRae (Temporary Paul Cramer/OLTL) Matthew Metzger (Duke Buchanan/OLTL), Alicia Minshew (Kendall Hart/AMC) Eden Riegel (Bianca Montgomery/AMC), Robin Strasser (Dorian Cramer Lord/OLTL), Heather Tom (Kelly Cramer/OLTL), David Tom (Paul Cramer #2/OLTL), Tuc Watkins (David Vickers/OLTL), Robert S. Woods (Bo Buchanan/OLTL), and Jacob Young (JR Chandler/AMC). Since the premiere of All My Children in 1970, Llanview has often been mentioned on AMC, and Pine Valley has often been mentioned on OLTL, underscoring the notion that the two towns are located in the same general region of Pennsylvania.

Members JackPeyton Posted July 10, 2008 Members Share Posted July 10, 2008 Days of our Lives to Friends Kristian Alfonso as Hope Brady Roark Critchlow as Mike Horton also... Kyle Lowder, Farah Fath, Alexis Thorpe, & Matt Ashford were on as Joeys co-stars on Days. Alsion Sweeney played Jessica Ashley, who worked with Joey on 'Days' Days of our Lives to American Dreams *no real crossovers but.. what the hell) Francis Reid & John Aniston appeared and watched the very first episode of 'Days' in Jack Pryors TV Store. Alison Sweeney was Miss USA and Farah Fath was a playboy bunny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members dragonflies Posted July 10, 2008 Members Share Posted July 10, 2008 Ian Thornhart was NEVER on OLTL, he was a character created solely for PC, and from what I read he is NOT Patrick's twin, he was his older brother, at least that's what I remember reading He also crossed over to OLTL when it was found out Skye wasn't his Oh and Sonny from GH did crossover to PC a few times if I remember right, he had interaction with Karen.

Members sheilaforever Posted July 10, 2008 Members Share Posted July 10, 2008 Brad Carlton's visit to L.A./BOB wasn't business related at all. It had to do with Sheila's plottings after he and Lauren had hit the sheets... And a question: didn't Stephanie and/or Eric cross over to Y&R for some episodes in the mid 90s - Sheila-related of course??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dm. Posted July 10, 2008 Members Share Posted July 10, 2008 MarhH... about the first post... it's "Jacob Foster" not "Jacob Hubbard." I noticed you weren't sure of his last name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MarkH Posted July 10, 2008 Author Members Share Posted July 10, 2008 Okay..will fix...I must admit to being ignorant about the Patrick thing...I knew I was stretching the Crossover idea :-)...but I wanted to convey the sense that they came from the same universe and even family.
