Thanks for the Kalember info.

Did Eric Braden act on any other soap?

[Paul Raven]

No .Y&R was his first soap and he's stayed on for 40 years so hardly hard the chance to do another.

Same goes for most performers who played the same role for years eg Suzanne Rogers, Erika Slezak,Jeanne Cooper etc

[jcar03]

He did appear as Victor on B&B in 1999.

[Huntress]

I'm not 100% sure, but I think other than Adrienne Frantz, none of B&B's late 90s/early 2000s younger crowd appeared on another daytime soap.

 

This includes:

Justin Torkildsen (Rick)
Mick Cain (C.J.)

Ashley Lyn Cafagna (Kimberly)
Jennifer Finnigan (Bridget)

Marissa Tait (Becky)

 

I don't think Carrie Mitchum (Donna Logan #1) had another soap role, either.

I think you're right. Jacob Young did go on to GH and AMC before ending back up on B&B years later, but I don't think the others listed here ever did another soap.

Unless I'm mistaken, TD was also the only soap for her replacement - Kathleen Turner.

[gimmetoo]

I seem to recall that Grant Show appeared on Y&R before RH...but it was a very small dayplayer-type role. 

[amybrickwallace]

I couldn't find any other soaps on the resumes of the first three Marys - Kate Mulgrew, Mary Carney and Kathleen Tolan. Nicolette Goulet aka Mary #4 went on to SFT and GL.
