I forgot to mention 3 of my favorites- Don Diamont, Lisa Peluso, and Robert Kelker-Kelly. Even though he's more lead on B&B, I friggin loved Brad Carlton and he's one of my all-time favorite soap characters.

Them and some others I forgot:

Don Diamont (Brad, Y&R)(Bill, B&B)

Lisa Peluso (Wendy, SFT)(Ava, LOV)(Lila, AW)

Robert Kelker-Kelly (Sam, AW)(Bo, DAYS)(Bobby Reno/Shane Roberts, AW- yes, I liked RKK's 2nd run)

Rick Hearst (Scotty, DAYS)(Alan-Michael, GL)(Matt, Y&R))(Ric, GH)- I never liked Whip myself

Kristoff St. John (Adam, GEN)(Neil, Y&R)

Nathan Purdee (Nathan, Y&R)(Hank, OLTL)

Debbi Morgan (Angie, AMC/The City/LOV)(Harmony, Y&R)

Eileen Davidson (Ashley, Y&R)(Kristen/Susan/Sister Mary Moira/Thomas/Penelope, DAYS)- hated her on SB though

Nina Arveson (Cassandra, Y&R)(Angela, SB)

Karen Moncrief (Gabrielle, DAYS)(Cassandra, SB)

Ilene Kristen (Delia, RH)(Roxy, OLTL)

Brandon Beemer (Shawn, DAYS)(Owen, B&B)

Julie Pinson (Eve, PC)(Billie, DAYS)(Janet, ATWT)

Ricky Paull Goldin (Dean, AW)(Gus, GL)- I don't think I can count Gary on Y&R

Amelia Marshall (GIlly, GL)(Liz, PAS)

Yes. I've seen it mentioned here and elsewhere, where people said she was awful and so on.

I'm not sure Harmony from Y&R has been a success either, although that's the writing, unless Debbi demands they give her Louise Beavers-style dialogue.

How could I forget one of my favourites: Lauren Koslow.

Lindsay Wells Abbott, Y&R: a desperate, clingy, social climbing, blackmailing, loser.

Margo Lynley Spencer, B&B: complex, beautiful, loyal to Eric but loving and hating Ridge, saddled with Clarke's baby, the only legitimate competition Stephanie Forrester ever faced.

Kate Roberts Dimera, DAYS: what should be a stereotypical 'rich bitch' has developed into a compelling, tough, conflicted woman and a real survivor. The only woman in daytime over 50 whose still sexy, powerful and at the same time vulnerable and romantic.

    • Yep Edmund and Tad went under cover to infiltrate the... Willow Lake (I think?) old folks community scandal that was exploiting Phoebe, etc.  (Which at one point led to Edmund rescuing Brooke from quicksand--common around Pine Valley I guess

      ) EDIT maybe I'm wrong.  I found the quicksand scene

      But for the story all I can find is Edmund going undercover as the gigolo "preying" on older women, Eduardo (no one would recognize him with that disguise and name ) so the drag must have been.. a different story?    
    • But then he HATES the original Heather Webber (Cher's half sister played her, right?) and we know what happened when Robin would step into the role a year after this.  He does seem pretty spot on about actors who show promise otherwise.  It's interesting he knocks OLTL early on (though I loved all the recently released episodes from this era we got) but does give a lot of credit to the actress playing Cathy despite earlier complaining about her story.  And over all, while quite negative, his various pros and cons on the shows sounds about right with what I know of the shows at this time. This was a July dated issue of the magazine but and I know they date mags a month or two in advance--obviously when he wrote this he didn't know Lovers and Friends was gonna go off the air (in May I think).
    • You know one of the soap outlets posed that question just last week: Who do you want Trina with Spencer or Kai? And, of course, the picture of Spencer was NAC. I said, well, a lot. I chose Kai. I said that Spencer had been an entitled brat & that some people valued him over her, when I valued her above all others. I guess we'll see.
    • You're right. The only thing I can think of is if GH finally decides to bring back Spencer.
    • Sharon Rose Gabet told me on Facebook that she calls this "Baby Raven".
    • I imagine the storyline would now segue into Laura's accident. But I hope they manage to keep Leslie around though. I really don't want her to be written out, or get the DOOL treatment where she just pops up every so often to cause some short term trouble; the character and the actor were such a find.

    • You're welcome! I can't wait to read what your thoughts are... when and if you get into it, of course. "The Mansion Of The Damned" is amazing. It has everything - thriller, horror, crime, drama, soapy madness. Then as soon as it ends... you get Raven's return... which re-starts the whole show for me. So... I'm really happy for you! You're in for a treat.
