I was a big All My Children fan. In 1997 we went to Italy ,with some friends, and stayed at The Vila D’Este in Lake Como. When we were checking in, I told my friend that I thought I knew this woman who was in the lobby. She was heavily made up and had a wild mane of red hair. Actually, she looked like a hooker. It turns out she was an actress from the soap Bold and the Beautiful. The entire cast was filming at the hotel.
Naturally, when we got home I had to watch as I had never seen the show. It didn’t take me long to get hooked.

We watched General Hospital at college during beginning of the Luke and Laura relationship. There were a number of interesting characters on the show at the time - Luke Spencer, his sister Bobbie who was a good villainess, and Tristan Rogers and Emma Samms playing Robert Scorpio and his wife Holly.

It sure was. John McCook was in the room next to ours. He was the only one whose name I knew, at the time.

I had Quentin nightmares at 10

David Selby is a charming man in person. Enjoyed seeing him in his small part on legion. Don’t know if their could be a more fan friendly cast.

He played in a lot of early TV shows and some pretty good movies.

WWII Marine combat pilot. That would rule out a career in todays Hollywood.

Many years ago, I watched the soaps a little bit (not all of
them). Then when “Days of our Lives” came on one day with
that “Like sands through the hourglass, so are the DAYS OF
OUR LIVES”; I turned the tv off and said, “Buddy you are
RIGHT!” - and have never watched the soaps after that.
