Members Dave_01 Posted March 11, 2016 Members Share Posted March 11, 2016 There are so many great characters on the 5 shows I've included below. But if I absolutely had to narrow it down (and without putting them in order of preference)... Dark Shadows - Victoria, Burke (esp. Mitch Ryan's version), Roger, Elizabeth, Barnabas, Angelique, Nicholas, Quentin The Doctors - Nick, Matt, Maggie, Carolee, Althea GH - Alan, Monica, Laura, Anna, Lucy, Helena, Zander, Anthony Z. (Note: I'd like to include Steve and Jessie, but I just haven't seen enough material where they were primary rather than supporting or background characters. What I have gotten to see, I've really liked. Regarding Luke, I fluctuate too much between really enjoying the character and being sick of him and glad he's gone; so I didn't include him as a favorite.) OLTL - Viki, Asa, Bo, Dorian, Tina, Ed, RJ, Lindsay Ryan's Hope - Jack, Maeve, Jillian, Delia (esp. Randall Edwards' version), Siobhan (esp. Sarah Felder's version), Rae, Patrick, Finn McCool Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members titan1978 Posted March 11, 2016 Members Share Posted March 11, 2016 I have a hard time divorcing the actor from the role so it's not always just the character for me.

Members applcin Posted March 13, 2016 Members Share Posted March 13, 2016 GH- Well, the first time I watched it, it was Luke & Laura that hooked me because they were literally about to have their first on-the-run story and I liked the adventure. Later on, though, Anna Devane became my favorite because she was so kickass and not the damsel-in-distress, sidekick to the male character. She was so unlike all the female characters I'd ever seen and I just loved her. Even though I no longer watch any current soaps, Anna of that time period probably remains my across-the-soap favorite female. DOOL - well, again, I got hooked by a couple, Steve & Kayla, since I started watching shortly after they met EON- Sky & Raven...what chemistry. I only started watching it during its last few years. Luckily, I was able to watch some more when AOL started streaming it years ago and now that it's on youtube I think I'm going to try to find a good starting point to watch consecutively. OLTL- Clint Ritchie's Clint. Viki grew on me by association. I loved them in the 80s. I really missed his presence when he retired and, of course, passed away. GL - I started watching because I followed Larkin Malloy from EON to GL so he started out as my favorite. But Harley became my eventual favorite as I saw when she debuted. RH- I saw this sporadically at the time because I was going to school but Jack stood out for me. And I had a teen-crush on Joe #1, Richard Muenz. I hated when Roscoe Born took over and it stuck with me because I never did like him no matter what he was in after that (didn't help that he played nasty characters)AMC - the first soap I ever watched and I did like a number of characters and couples (Cliff & Nina, Greg & Jenny) throughout the years but, unlike the other shows, where I could easily pick a longtime strong favorite, that's not the case here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members juniorz1 Posted March 18, 2016 Members Share Posted March 18, 2016 LOL thanks! I still visit and lurk, but am bored with the soaps right now. My mom and I have been watching old SB episodes on You Tube for a year now. She's more hooked than me lately! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
