Jamie Lyn Bauer - obviously for Lorie Brooks but would her run as Laura on DAYS be considered iconic?

 

 

She played Laura for several years and through several major stories, so I would put her in that category.

 

Also:

 

Jada Rowland (Amy, TSS and Carolee, TD)

Oh, and as for the actress who briefly preceded her as Myrna -

 

Marla Adams - Belle, TSS and Dina, Y&R

Yes - and she made her mark with several primetime roles as well.

Wasn’t Rowland also the original Susan Stewart on ATWT
 

A couple others I hadn’t seen mentioned yet:

 

Justin Deas: Tom, ATWT Keith SB and Buzz GL

Susan Keith: Cecile AW and Shana Loving

Cady McClain: Dixie AMC and Roseanna ATWT (her Y&R role was a waste!)

I know she played the role briefly, but I don't think she originated it.

Frankly, I don't think Cady McClain ever belonged on a show like Y&R -- and I say that as someone who is a fan.  Peter Bergman lucked out, but in general, I find ABCD actors don't mesh well with the Bell/Y&R aesthetic.

 

Jane Elliot: Tracy (GH), Carrie (GL), Anjelica (DAYS) and Cynthia (AMC).  Am I missing any?

Cady was a stopgap for Cynthia Watros on Y&R, who was very good on the show in an underwritten role (who I suspect would've originally been revealed to be Delia's real killer, given the affair with Billy Miller's Billy). But Cady always stuck out like a sore thumb and it didn't work at all, and her final months under Pratt were particularly embarrassing to watch. Psycho is not her forte. To this day I have no idea if Jack or someone else killed her character.

Justin Deas was mentioned. I mentioned him, along with his wife, actress Margaret Colin.
