Any recasts you actually preferred to the original? Please do not include actors who were recast from child actors (EX: Kristian Alfonso is not the original Hope). Also, don't include recasts if you never saw the original portrayer. The ones that spring to mind for me: Robert Kelker-Kelly as Bo Brady, DAYS Brenda Epperson as Ashley Abbott, Y&R Carrington Garland as Kelly Capwell, Santa Barbara Robin Mattson as Gina Blake, Santa Barbara Jed Allan as CC Capwell, Santa Barbara Anne Heche as Vicky/Marley Hudson, AW Winsor Harmon as Thorne Forrester, B&B Jess Walton, Y&R |

Heidi Mueller as Kay - Passions Martha Madison as Belle - Days (I did like KS as Belle when she was a teen, but MM worked better as the adult Belle Jay K. Johnson as Philip - Days - although the other Philip left so quickly that maybe he shouldn't count. Farah Fath as Mimi - Days (same as above) Every Will has been better than the previous one (starting with CG) - Days |

No. He was played by this curly haired guy at first. I'll see if I can find a picture.\ edit: http://web.archive.org/web/20080622014046/www.childrenofsalem.com/days/kidsgrewup/brandont.html Edited by six, May 13 2010, 11:37 AM.

Lynn Deerfield was the original Holly and was in the role from 1970-1976. She was the spoiled, immature, young Holly who first hooked up with Roger and then married Ed. Posted Image |

Was she any good in the role? According to IMDB she never worked again after GL. |

She didn't have to. She was married at the time to the ancorman for WABC news. |

Speaking of Ed Bauer's, all three of the main Ed's could be good Tommy Horton recasts LoL. Soapcentral says a "Pat Collins" played the character first, but IMDB has no record of him at all. How old did he play on the show? I'm assuming teens? |

I'm thinking Pat Collins had to be a kid because he was only on from 1959-1961 (according to the Waggett Soap Opera Encyclopedia) and Ed was only born in 1954. However, wikipedia states that Collins was in the role from 1954-1961 and was the 1st Ed Bauer on screen. Soap Central puts Colins tenure at 1958-1961. Robert Gentry was the 1st adult Ed Bauer in 1966, making the character a grown 25 year old doctor. Meanwhile, Ed's older brother Mike was an attorney was being played by Gary Pilar and was living in ANOTHER WORLD's Bay City on NBC. |

It had been a wonderful evening and what I needed now, to give it the perfect ending, was a little of the Ludwig Van.
