Just in case u are wondering what with the many blogs...what I did was brainstorm all week, and do it pretty much all at once, or here today and some tomorrow and so forth. I just don't spit this all from my brain in one sitting. Hell no.
I wanted to add some stuff I noted from other soaps. I've been doggin on GM for some time for not doing public events when he used to them, and I wanted to make an example of an actor who is doing TONS. As folks may know (I'm kinda deviating here) was that MarCal was a huge hit in 2003 for OLTL...sadly, Nate Marston was fired (for not showing up to work allegedly on time)..he had a sleeping condition that is controlled now...the fans were up in arms so they brought Al back from the dead, sadly as a reincarnated Michael, the couple never got the same buzz as it once did. However Michael/marcy are still a couple but alas not a hyped one. Okay back to the actor welll look at this:

Despite not being a big name on the show anymore, NM manages to do so much press and events and be supportive of the show despite lack of meaty storylines! Wow...I guess some folks are very gregarious and some not so eager to do that.
Oh and another fabu link to a site I thought was so impressive. Tamara Braun, who I think is pretty and was overworked over at GH has a great fansite

Despite not being on GH anymore and not doing as well as Peyton in terms of guest work (they however have both each done two bmovies after soapstint)...Tams manages to do much PA work and therefore still in folks' minds. I only wish her the best; I met TB in 2003, she is so sweet and kind and was telling us LiRic folk how beautiful our fansites were and she was amazed we were just doing this as hobby and not professionally! Also, she and Rick H. I adore...they have great rapport and are like close siblings. Plus both are soooo skinny! I wish GM, other soapstars I liked, could do so many PAs like these to show fan appreciation...the GHers are the only ones who ever come to Texas! I'm thinking ATWT is just not into marketing and promoting their show versus the ABC ones, and has been for a long time. on BTW< I'm still on the bandwagon kick of Tamara and Grayson working together. It kills me how well they looked together. I wonder if they ever met at the Emmys. As I said last yr...can anyone say "The Blue Room?"
