It's the one and only Ken Kenitzer, the Kevin Buchanan recast who lasted for about a week or two.

He's got to be looking down at his cheat sheet or at the very least picturing the lines in his head hence the lack of eye contact and slow delivery. That's Clints Buchanan and Ritchie getting frustrated with him, that *spit it out* hand gesture.

He looks like David Charvet mixed with a rat.

I will never know what was going on with casting at this time. This was the third or fourth bland and bad casting at this time (Casper Van Dien and Jack Armstrong being others, Christopher Douglas on the way). Unfortunately it just meant that it became more of a prevailing view that you couldn't have traditional leading men, that everyone had to be sleazy or brooding or "edgy."

More Kenitzer.

I dont even remember him. Thank god Kevin Stapleton took over who I still regard as the definitive Kevin. Too bad JFP didnt agree with me

I'm trying to remember what was going on with YorlinCristian. I miss that Jessica.

Was he fired or did he quit? Was he a better actor than Fumero? Did he have more or less chemistry with Torpey? (I tried not to make that sound like I was interrogating you. )

He was fired. Fumero replaced him as part of JFP's push to feature more young college hunks. Fumero was a model and had more of a leading male appeal than Yorlin did that she was going for.

Yeah, and Yorlin was a better actor and he and Erin had more warmth and charm than ANY young Llanview couple since.

Was he better as Cristian though? Do you think it was wrong to fire him? I know this sounds like I'm coming on too strong but he's never really been talked about much and I'm curious. Though maybe that's where my answer lies. Although, Fumero has always been mediocrem, so ...

ETA: Thanks SFK.

I remember Yorlin on Ricki Lake once, soap fans meet their crushes. Martha Byrne sang all up in her dude's face, microphone, hand hold, took a knee, the whole bit, and he was like:

Id have to disagree. Cris2/Natalie >>>> Cris1/Jessica1

Amello there's a Youtube Channel, CressFan, that has a lot of Yorlin and Erin (and then David and Erin).

Id have to disagree. Cris2/Natalie >>>> Cris1/Jessica1

My first episode of OLTL was Natalie having a nightmare about marrying Cristian. Was that the same episode Asa told "Flash" about his wives, or am I mistakenly meshing two different episodes together?

See, I was never a Natalie fan, I didn't come around to liking her until months ago and I always had a problem with Cris being with Jessica's sister/Nat being with Jessica's first love.
