LOVE Sarah Brown! Hated Tamara Braun with the fire of a thousand suns. I thought her replacement was rather good, but she was fired and is being replaced.

So Brown is on Cold Case? Is she a regular? I'll have to start watching if she is.

Yeah, I think she's a regular this season.

Haven't seen "In Her Shoes" yet, but I'm a big fan of Toni Collette and I think she's very underrated...

I second Toni Collete. She's really an amazing actress with not enough credit.

Jeff Bridges
Dennis Quaid
Frances Conroy
And I agree on Sydney Penny...she's fantastic and SO beautiful.

There's a soap actor named Roger Howarth that's amazing as well. I think he was on Broadway a few years back, but the show flopped..can't remember the details, though.

If we're going to go with soap actors, I would nominate Anthony Geary, Nancy Lee Grahn, and Jane Elliot. I believe they all have Emmys (at least the first two do).

I would also like to nominate my avatar, who works constantly in film and television as well as onstage. She also has an Emmy (primetime) to go with her Tony, but how many people know her name outside of Broadway fans?

I love Sarah Brown also! Will never forget when Carly first blew into town and tore apart the lives of several GH residents.

Also, Sarah Polley is amazing.

Cheno, you watch GH??

Did you watch Sarah Polley as a child in the Ramona series on PBS? Those were adorable - I had been a fan of the books when I was little.

Rath, I used to be obsessed with GH. But this was years ago. It was during the Lucky *hearts* Liz years. I don't have Tivo, so I try to watch here and there on the Soap Network.

I did used to watch Ramona on Nickelodeon. Who knew she'd grow up to be so fantastic? "My Life Without Me" absolutely devastated me.

I liked the actress who played Sonny's wife, Lilly Melgar, quite a bit.

Oooh Lilly vs. Brenda.


I miss Lois.

[Rathnait62]

Posted: 10/11/05 at 1:06pm

Actually, Lucky *hearts* Liz once again. They're living together and about to be married.

[Love4Cheno]

LOL I see that nothing has changed on the soaps.

I used to be so in lust with Jax and Jason and Nicholas and the new Lucky (or was it new-new Lucky)...

[Rathnait62]

Posted: 10/11/05 at 1:15pm

I only loved Original Lucky. Whatever happened to him, anyway?

And even I can see that Nicolas is HAWT.

I'm so old...I watched GH during the Frisco and Felicia years.

The original Lucky was adorable, and has become quite the hottie. He left GH to pursue films- he was a finalist for the Star Wars role that went to Hayden C.

He was in "Tuck Everlasting" and IMDB has a few projects of his listed (Jonathon Jackson).

Quite a good actor.

[Rathnait62]

Posted: 10/11/05 at 1:22pm

Oh please, newgirl - I watched BEFORE Laura showed up at the age of 14! Don't talk to me about OLD!

Cheno, I've seen nor heard nothing of Jackson since Tuck Everlasting.

I just looked up Jackson on IMDB - he married Lisa Vultaggio, who played Hannah Scott on GH - they have a son.

That really REALLY surprises me on the one hand, he comes off quite gay, but on the other hand, he's very religious, so I'm sure this was the only route available to him.

And Tyler Christopher was married to Eva Longoria!

He was in a Stephen King movie called Riding the Bullet with Erika Christensen and Barbara Hershey recently.

Eileen Brennan is definitely underrated.
