Members DRW50 Posted March 7, 2011 Members Share Posted March 7, 2011 Since several other old topics have been brought up again recently and since there are always new posters, I thought this might be a way to pass time. Who are your all time favorite soap characters? Primetime, daytime, US, foreign, radio, whatever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Vizion Posted March 7, 2011 Members Share Posted March 7, 2011 Female Characters (The First Four Are In Order...The Others, Not So Much): 1. Dinah Marler played by Gina Tognoni (GL) 2. Lucy Coe played by Lynn Herring (GH) 3. Carly Benson played by Sarah Brown (GH) 4. Annie Dutton played by Cynthia Watros (GL) 5. Victoria Newman played by Heather Tom (Y&R) 6. Blake Thorpe played by Sherry Stringfield (GL) 7. Drucilla Winters played by Victoria Rowell (Y&R) 8. India Von Halkein played by Mary Kay Adams (GL) 9. Nina Webster played by Tricia Cast (Y&R) 10. Alexandra Spaulding played by Beverlee McKinsey (GL), Lucinda Walsh played by Liz Hubbard (ATWT) or Susan Flannery as Stephanie Forrester (BB) 5-10 of this list changes sometimes, but 1-4 is pretty much set in stone lol. Male Characters 1. Roger Thorpe played by Michael Zaslow (GL) 2. Alan Michael Spaulding played by Rick Hearst (GL) 3. Phillip Spaulding played by Grant Aleksander (GL) 4. Todd Manning played by Roger Howarth (OLTL) 5. Malcolm Winters played by Shemar Moore (Y&R) 6. Ryan McNeil played by Scott Reeves (Y&R) 7. Lane Davies as Mason Capwell (SB) Honestly, so many male characters I used to love have been ruined. I used to love Peter Bergman's Jack, Tony Geary's Luke, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DRW50 Posted March 7, 2011 Author Members Share Posted March 7, 2011 I know what you mean. I've been "lucky", in that many of my favorites were written out too soon, the actors left and I could blame my distaste on a new actor, or the characters remained stable for a long time. I forgot a few - I'm glad you mentioned Nina, and India, and the delicious Blake by Sherry (although I did grow to like Liz Keifer over time). I also forgot Jessica Griffin and Gilly Grant. And poor Nadine on GL. And Dru on Y&R. And Mac Cory, and Clint Ritchie's Clint My honorable mentions: Olivia Matthews, AW. Aunt Liz, AW. Eleni, GL (before she was recast) Harley, GL (before the life was sucked out of her) Jack Finelli, RH Eden Capwell, SB Maeve Ryan, RH Jill Coleridge, RH Ray Langton, Corrie, Lou and Pauline Beale and Dot Cotton, Eastenders Mark Fowler Eastenders, Viv Windsor Emmerdale, Steph Dean Hollyoaks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
