When Roger played Ryan the range of his acting was so expansive it made him feel free to show so much more and liked him with all 4 of his leading ladies with each one he was all different kinds of sexy and I loved many of his different hairstyles, colors love with and without facial hair ... yes. yes. yes he wore plenty of tight fitting tee-shirts!!
I've been lookiing at my videos of the year 2000 when Todd came back into Blair's life, and the thing I miss the most is these quiet times with Todd and Blair that so remind me of when they were in love. Like everyone I miss Roger's Todd. Because of you tube I been able to catch up on Roger's Paul Ryan and i find that I also liked that Character but Todd will always draw me in with his vunerability just beneath the surface.
I loved that baby who played starr. I know they were twins but they showed one baby all the time as she hit 1. I like that they kept her until she was over 2. She started as an infant and it was nice to see her so much on oltl we actually saw her start walking and babbling and saying some words. She was the cutest baby ever. I though the baby who played danny Morgan til he was also 2 or 3 was beautiful. I wish theyd let the babies stay on & grow up. I watched clips the toddler who played jason stated with the show for 7 years. Til he was sent off to boarding school til they hired steve burton so he went from 11 real time to 16 played by a 21 year old lol. Only starr, jesse and Robin on gh grew up from 7 years old til they were grown on their shows. I always loved erin Torpey as jessica . Bree was good but I preferred Erin. That baby in this scene is 24 years old now. Time goes by too fast. I remember this scene like yesterday and I was in 11th grade. Roger was only 27 here. What a great young actor he was . Oltl was so thrilled to find their next big male lead that todd became bigger than the show in the 90s. Viki might have been the best big sister on a soap ever. She once said to todd in the cabin " I love you twisted & tormented & closer to my heart than my own children god help me that's true." I was shocked but it was obvious viki shared somethings with todd her own kids could never understand. They were children of victor lord and both were abused by their dads .
That was amazing writing, and sounded such an authentic note. You just knew that the two wounded children understood one another better than anyone in the world understood them.
