We forgot Gillian Spencer (Daisy/Original Flavor Viki)....and Mark LaMura, but his OLTL role was like one or two days, so you might not want to count it.

Holy [!@#$%^&*]! I'm stunned, truly stunned that it actually worked. And yes, I realized that it's just one sponsor, but it's still ONE!

I would say the amount of money ABC is losing because of this is more than the lost on AMC and OLTL

Also...Francesca James...Laurence Lau...

It's a heck of a lot more than GL and ATWT fans ever dreamed of achieving.

I always said that ABCD fans are annoying little f*ckers!!

I bet Mrs. Kirkendalls just loves them some Tad

Oh wow

I bet Frons is crapping in his Wheaties right now, Sweeney too

Good for Hoover. I hope more sponsors pull away from ABC.

I'm watching Paula Deen's show on Food Network right now and Carla Hall is a guest (Top Chef - one of the hosts of The Chew). I love her to death, so I ain't mad at her... but Paula Deen just made a horribly staged Chew plug... the camera zoomed in on her and she said "girl, I need a CHEW" and then smiled. UGH

Also Doris Belack, Anthony Ponzini, Frank Converse, James O'Sullivan, Grayson Hall. I'm sure there are tons more.

Wow. That might leave a mark from the ring hand, at least.

JPL's arduous, flailing follow-up statement is hilarious. All I can think of is Kramer on Seinfeld, getting caught posing as Mr. Moviefone. "Why don't you just tell me the name of the movie you want to see?!" I can't blame him for being tactful re: "Mistah Frons" to the end, honestly. He's young. But it was ill-timed given ABC's assholeish behavior. I would've made those semi-toadyish feelings clear in private.

That's a pretty big sponsor isn't it? Hoover is a big name and must be alot of advertising bucks.

Damn that's gotta hurtn LOL

Thanks! DUH, Gillian Spencer.

A part of me wonders if Hoover was going to end their ads anyway and this is PR...but still, it's a surprise. I had read before that advertisers prefer soaps to the filler programs the networks are now churning out - if so then this might be the first sign.

Thanks! DUH, Gillian Spencer.

TK also played Patrick's brother Ian on Port Charles

Robert Gentry is another one.

Sorry, forgot to quote; this is from Ann_SS.

I can't believe that he had to state the obvious for some fans. The intent of his original statement was pretty clear.

It still seems odd to me, to personally thank Frons for not firing him. There are other people involved in that decision.
