Soap Hoppers --The Soap Actors And Roles Thread

[danfling]

In the interest of completeness, I will add that Judith Barcroft played two roles on The Edge of Night.   Her first role was as Miles' mother.

[Faulkner]

How about...

 

Dorothy Lyman

Morgan Fairchild

Colleen Dion

John Wesley Shipp

Anthony Addabbo (RIP)

Brian Gaskill (ugh)

Charles Grant

Rick Hearst

Warren Burton

A Martinez

Jon Lindstrom

Susan Brown

Virginia Dwyer

 

I think all of the above had at least five soaps in their individual careers. I know it’s quite a list, but if it’s still fun for you...choose which ones you like.

 

Thanks for your work here!

Edited March 19, 2018 by Faulkner

[slick jones]

She's in there. 

 

@danfling, Do you recall the name of Lenka Peterson's (Brooke's fake mother) character on AMC?

 

[slick jones]

I've got to double check the dates before I post.  Tonight I should get:

Ariane Muenker

Joan Van Ark

Lenka Peterson

Gillian Spencer

Ann Flood

Dorothy Lyman

MMorgan Fairchild

Colleen Dion

Warren Burton

Susan Brown

 

I'll work on the others tomorrow.

I had a conversation about her roles with AM on Facebook. She made sure that I spelled Christie with an "ie" and that I  referred to Annie as "Carol Ann". She was very gracious in talking about her various roles.

[All My Shadows]

I don't know how or when it started, but Flamingo Road's Constance was never married to Titus Semple. Her full name should be just Constance Weldon Carlyle.

[slick jones]

Fixed. My Flamingo Road list is covered with scribbles from trying to supply characters for all the actors supplied by imdb and the end credits.
