Considering the "caliber" of younger actors that have actually made it on-screen (Lindsay Morgan, Jimmy Deshler, etc.), This does make me wonder though, are some of the young actors just totally crushed by the schedule of GH?

Granted she was only on screen in each for a few minutes, but she was actually good in both. Not an eyebrow-wiggle in sight. She also looked better on both than she ever did on TFGH. On this show her hair always looked awful and she had huge bags under her eyes. But it's pretty much par for the course that everyone looks better in real life pictures and on other shows than they do TFGH.

GHScorpiosRule August 21, 2014 Share August 21, 2014 This was the best place I could think of posting this bit of 'other roles.' Not any actor but the show, GH itself, starring in another show! I was watching the second season of Diagnosis Murder, "Death In The Daytime" or something like that, where several actors from Young and The Restless were playing themselves...and the temporary director was having fits because of all the "accidents" that were happening on set, and in frustration, she accuses Dr. Mark Sloan (Dick Van Dyke), Jack (Scott Baio) and Amanda (Victoria Rowell) of being spies and demanded who sent them, "General Hospital"?? Which made me snicker. Keep in mind, this was 1995, and during a time when GH was GOOD, and before we were infected with the hosebeast and Jason Morgan, hitman, and the axis of EVUHL/Moballthetime. I know that Young and The Restless was no. 1 at the time, but GH was also right up there.
