    Wow, sanjax sounds like you had a great relationship with GL. I've been "catching up" with GL on line lately. Reliving the Beverlee McKinsey days. That lady sure was extraordinary.

    My favorite will always be Crystal Chappell since I started watching because of Otalia, but I was always very impressed by the quality of most actors on this show.

    my fav actor from GL all time is popular daytime TV soap opera actor David Andrew Macdonald as the greatest GL villain and soap villain of all time called Prince Edmund Winslow.

    so, when's David Macdonald returning to daytime TV soap operas?

    Laura Wright's still on GH and many of David's GL co-stars are also still on the last 4 soap operas remaining on daytime TV

    OMG I forgot to mention William Roerick who played Henry Chamberlin. I loved that man and always wanted a big hug from him.

    Without a doubt Tom Pelphrey as Jonathan Randall was my favorite actor! The story of Tammy and him was one of the best love stories ever written on a soap, imo. Stephanie Gatschet was my favorite actress. I loved the way these two made Jonathan and Tammy's love story so real, and it wouldn't have worked with any other actor and actress in the roles. Just the way they looked at each other sucked a viewer in.

    I watched GL nonstop for years, starting at the time when Mindy/Phillip/Beth/Rick were teens. I watched all those years and still the love story of Jonathan and Tammy, which only spanned the end of 2004 to the beginning of 2007, was my favorite and what I remember most. I wish they would release a compilation of their love story on DVD. I want to see it all again.

    I got into GL because of Robert Newman & Kim Zimmer!! I still LOVE them!! But I also have come to love Justin Deas, Tina Sloan, Elizabeth Keifer, Jerry verDorn, numerous others etc... I was very excited when Crystal Chappell came aboard as I had always loved her on DOOL as Carly, then OLTL as Maggie. Anyway, if I have to limit my top three faves from GL it would be KZ, RN, & CC!!!!

    I'd have to put Jonathan on the top of that list, I loved him and his whole sl with Reva and Tammy, it was the best ever, Philip, the 1st Allen Michael he then showed up on B & B, I liked Philip & Harley, but then again I really loved GL, watched it for many many years and was very saddened to see it go. I remember my mom watching it when I was a little girl and that is a very long time ago. Never should have been cancelled. IMHO

    For those who know what I am talking about, Betty Rea was a genius.

    Having said that, my top performers are Michael Zaslow and Kim Zimmer. There are just too many more to mention.
