Soap Hoppers --The Soap Actors And Roles Thread

[slick jones]

Thanks @VanessaReardon. When I duck in to add changes, I see everyone checking it out.I'm glad people enjoy them. I've been gathering the info on casts and actors for such a long time. That's one of the reasons I have loved being here at SON.

Hey, @slick jones I can't help but wish you liked me. Just sayin'.

[Franko]

One of the things I've always been amused by is just how many hoppers there are. I was here when this thread launched and I sure didn't know we'd be up to 100+ pages. Just beyond Pine Valley, Genoa City, etc., apparently lies Soaplandia.

 

Can't wait to see more!

Including radio roles and people who were on two soaps only made the list even longer. A lot of actors have appeared on more than one show, but in a lot of cases, I just see it as a career, and not a big deal, for me the hoppiest of hoppers are the people who go from show to show (stay a year, go to another, etc. and hit three or four within a short amount of time.) 

 

ETA totally appreciate all of SlickJones hard work.

Slick, this thread is amazing. Don't let anybody's random posts get you down.

I, too, applaud Slick's incredible work -- on this thread, and elsewhere.

You do incredible work. Your researching skills are great. Have you ever thought of writing a book on this topic?

Great to see some new hoppers.

 

I never connected that the   Peter MacLean  that was Grandpa Brady was the same actor as those other roles. Guess it's not a very memorable name...
