GL and ATWT Alum Tom Pelphrey Cast In Netflix’s MARVEL’s IRON FIST!
23
I miss GL…i miss many of my soaps!!!
I DO TOO…I REALLY MISS G.L. AND ATWT AND SOME OF THE GREATEST SOAP STARS WE USED TO LOOK FORWARD TO SEEING EVERY DAY…
Me too Jim, I miss Reva the slut of Springfield. Lol.
Also loved Blake, Reva, Joshua, Lillian and other people on the Guiding Light. Man I miss that soap so much.
The first soap I got to miss was Texas which was a spinoff from Another World. That show had me glued to my screen every day and i got to meet some of the actors when they came to do guest appearances in my hometown of Plattsburgh, NY. Other soaps have joined the ranking like ATWT and it’s never a good feeling when we lose one of our families.
Tom has received stellar reviews since joining Cinemax’s Banshee. It’s been a real star making role. I’m sure it helped get him noticed for this new role. So happy for him.
Tom Pelphrey is one of my top 5 favorite actors in the entire history of daytime drama and one of the finest actors in any genre. I make it a practice to check him out in any role I can.
Who are the other four?
Thanks for asking. They are: Michael Zaslow (Roger Thorpe, GL), Larry Bryggman (John Dixon, ATWT), Roger Howarth (Franco, GH, Todd OLTL et al), and Justin Deas (Buzz Cooper, GL et al). Pelphrey always reminded me of Zaslow in his ability to portray villainous actions while showing tremendous vulnerability. In fact, all 5 of these actors can claim that skill.
An excellent list. I was a GL and ATWT fan as well. What about the ladies?
Robin Strasser (Dorian, OLTL), Elizabeth Hubbard (Lucinda, ATWT), Beverly McKinsey (Alexandra, GL), Wendy Moniz (Dinah, GL) and Sarah Brown (Carly, GH). How about you, Mark? Any favorites?
Another good list and I’d include them all. How about Victoria Wyndham AW, Ilene Kristen RH, Lisa Brown GL & ATWT, Mary Kay Adams GL & ATWT – could never look away when they were on screen.
Great choices. Soaps can feature some of the best acting in ANY genre. It’s interesting that when many of the soaps were produced in NYC they attracted many Broadway actors. Regardless of the sometimes poor or outlandish writing on soaps, the best actors commit to the material and make it rich and entertaining.
He was sooooo good on guiding light. I miss gl so much!!!!!!!!!!!
He is so hot, rugged and masculine. I loved watching Tom on Guiding Light. He is a terrific actor and sexy too. Tom and Kim Zimmer really loved working together, great chemistry together. I hope Kim Zimmer comes back to Daytime.
Thanks for saying it, Mandy. There are lots of pretty faces and fit bodies on daytime but not many with old-fashioned charisma and sex appeal, plus ferocious talent to go with it. Tom Pelphrey has it. For me, Roger Howarth and Billy Miller also have it. But it seems to be a rare combination and when you see it, you KNOW IT!
Good for him didn’t know he was on Banshee I don’t watch anymore.. But I loved the way he sarcastically called Reva MA-MEEE..HEEHEE
I will be watching, big fan of Tom and is a terrific actor.
Good Luck!! You are a fantastic actor!! I loved you on GL & ATWT. I wish I had Netflix so I could watch your new adventure. Hope to see you on the big screen cos I will be there to watch & cheer you on!!
This dude is sexy as hell lmao. Tom is a wonderful actor
Well deserved, Tom is such an amazing actor. He killed it on Guiding Light and deserved those Emmy awards. I’m glad to see his talents recognized past daytime, glad to see him going far!
He’s got the goods. Glad to see things working out for the actor.
Tom brought new life to GL in its closing years. Great actor and soul. Deserved both emmys.
