Members soapfan770 Posted April 21, 2016 Members Share Posted April 21, 2016 There's been some good acting finds in the 2000s and yes even in the 2010s but they are few and far between. Justin Hartley is probably the first that comes to my mind(he was good even on Passions!), but I would also add Jacqueline MacInnes Wood, Linsey Godfrey, and Mishael Morgan to that list.

Members YRfan23 Posted April 21, 2016 Members Share Posted April 21, 2016 I can't make a definite list, but I also think of Passions actors too....Lindsay Hartley and Liza Huber both stand out... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members All My Shadows Posted April 21, 2016 Members Share Posted April 21, 2016 Even in the short-term, I think of someone like Jeffrey Carlson, whom I'm sure many would say chewed up all of the scenery during his time on AMC, but I thought he was fantastic and played that role for all it was worth.

Members Khan Posted April 21, 2016 Members Share Posted April 21, 2016 No one could say "I HAVE A PENIS!" without coming across as hammy. So I don't blame Carlson. I think the last time I sat up and took notice (so to speak) of an actor's performance was ESS's on ATWT. Dr. Reid Oliver was arguably WT's last interesting character -- but I think that had to do more with ESS than with the writers responsible for creating him. Plus, he seemed to re-ignite Van Hansis as an actor, and in my book, that's the soap equivalent of Annie Sullivan teaching Helen Keller how to say 'water' in sign language.

Members quartermainefan Posted April 21, 2016 Members Share Posted April 21, 2016 The AMC guy who went on to star in CREED seems like a really good actor. He seems likable, looks great, and seems pretty talented. If he is not the latest and maybe best actor discovery the soaps have found in the last 10 or 15 years, then I don't know who is. If we mean currently on soaps, then the guy from TPIR who went on to star on AMC 2.0 as Pete Cortlandt and then Days as the crazy boyfriend I think has a lot of potential. He sold the prince charming perfect character on AMC, and his crazy psycho turn on Days was just as good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
