GH: Soap Vet Cast

[NothinButAttitude]

 

When? I've never heard any GH fan that was watching during that time say anything about this. Most don't even know her name.

I totally forgot this piece of JDP trivia. (GH related, I promise!)

In 1998, there was a book released in honor of OLTL's 30th anniversary. In it, JDP talked about how mom when his mom first came to California from Germany, she became a fan of all the ABC soaps--they are a big reason she learned to speak English. As a result, he would often watch them with her, too, and when they would visit the Bay Area, she would often drag Jim along with her so they could both meet them. The specific soap star he mentioned that his mom dragged him to their local mall to meet? Richard Dean Anderson.

So, if he DOES, in fact, play Jeff Webber, I guess that was a moment of foreshadowing for his future! 

[Darn]

RDA is only 7 years older than JDP and BH looks a good decade younger than she is, I don't see a problem.

 

I'm happy he's working, only because I like KDP so much. I never thought he was anything special but the Max I know was from long after his most prominent years.

Oh OK.

With that other spumor that NV said that they were gonna bring over characters from AMC and OLTL. Is it a possibility that James could just be ya know....reprising his role of Max Holden.

 

 

Max was never killed off or anything.

[dragonflies]

I like Max but I hope not, I'd rather he be Jeff, cause Liz needs her parent's

[Ryan Chamberlain]

Same. I just thought I should bring it up because of what Varni said.

[KMan101]

Jennifer Bassey still needs to show up on-screen ...

Nope, leave him in Argentina with Gabrielle! I prefer to think she's alive and with him down there. [!@#$%^&*] Luna.

I didn't like Luna either. He and Gabby were good together from what I've seen of them.

[Wendy]

He'd better not be Max. Look, I get the soap pool has shrunk to the size of a bathtub and soap work is soap work, but OLTL is over. Done. James DePaiva? Fine if he comes to GH but cast him either as a new character or as the aforementioned Dr. Jeff Webber, an actual GH character with history that has been gone long enough to put a new stamp on him.

 

But FV and ABC and stupid Nathan Varni need to stop with the freaking ABC Super Soap crap.

[slick jones]

If Varni wants AMC and OLTL characters...bring back the shows. Since they aren't going to, let the characters be.

I'm the biggest JDP fan ever and I feel the same way. I do feel a ton of guilt about him being on GH, though, if that makes you feel better. I know your fatigue on this issue is pretty damn big.

 

I'll still dodge tomatoes to defend JDP on the show, though, because I'm selfish and happy to see him again.
