Nathan Fillion Talks His Start On OLTL On ‘The View’ With Whoopi Goldberg
On Thursday’s episode of ABC’s The View, Nathan Fillion visited the show promoting his series, The Rookie. But during the beginning of his conversation with Whoopi Goldberg, he talked about what he learned from his humble beginnings in show business as Joey Buchanan on the beloved One Life to Live.
Of course, OLTL fans recall that Nathan was involved in a romantic storyline with Llanview icon, Robin Strasser (Dorian) and played the on-screen son to another icon, Erika Slezak (Viki).

Fillion shared about this time on One Life: “Everything I did and everything I do I learned on that show. I never speak poorly on daytime … it was such a warm kind place to be. I learned everything there. I don’t know where an actor can go and work with people that have worked in the business for 25, 35, 40 years, and I had no idea what i’m doing …and they said, ‘no problem here is what you do’. So, it was very good people.”
Goldberg also alluded to that she “missed the soaps” meaning All My Children and One Life to Live that shot right where they are in New York City at the ABC studios on 66th and 67th street.
Watch Nathan talk his early career and more with the ladies of The View below. Then, let us know what you think about the sentiments he share from his time at One Life to Live via the comment section.

Y&R’s Thad Luckinbill To Produce ‘Postscript’ The Film Adaptation of Sequel To “P.S. I Love You”
We all know that Thad Luckinbill (Ex-J.T Hellstrom, The Young and the Restless) wears many hats in the entertainment industry. He acts, he writes, he produces, he sings … is there anything that this talented guy doesn’t do?
Now comes word that Luckinbill’s production company (with his brother Trent and Molly Smith), Black Label Media, in conjunction with Alcon Entertainment, has secured the rights to the the novel Postscript and will turn it into a motion picture.
Postscript is the recently released sequel to Cecelia Ahern’s 2004 debut novel, P.S. I Love You. The original movie starred two-time Oscar winner, Hilary Swank as Holly who loses her husband tragically when he dies from a brain tumor. Then, a grieving Holly discovers that her husband has left behind 10 letters designed to help Holly overcome her sorrow and transition to a new life.
According to Deadline, who broke the news of this film deal: In, Postscript (which hit book stores this week in the U.S.) the story picks up Holly seven years after her husband’s death with Holly having peacefully moved on with her life. However, when Holly’s sister asks her to tell the story of the “PS, I Love You” letters on her podcast — she does so reluctantly, not wanting to reopen old wounds. Soon after the episode airs, people start reaching out to Holly, and they all have one thing in common: they’re terminally ill and want to leave their own missives behind for loved ones.”
According to a report here, Swank will reprise her role as Holly in the new movie.
Luckinbill’s Black Label Media recently produced the war movie, 12 Strong in which he co-stared, while he was also one of the producers on the hit movie, La La Land.
Intrigued to see how Postscript turns out? Wish Thad would return as. J. T to Y&R for a another stint? Comment below.

Now that’s what I’m talking about!!! I’m so happy and excited to see Jerry has signed on to continue playing the role of Clint. I can’t wait to see who else follows……here’s hoping I see an announcement about Erika Slezak soon….LOL
Wonderful news! Great progress is being made. Ditto on hoping to see an announcement from Erika Slezak! Can’t wait to see the show again!
Another HUGE get!!!! So important to get one of the Buchanan brothers on board! One down, 20 or so more to go.
This is so unbelievable! A year ago, it was all but dead and buried. And here we are, and there is a glorious light ahead. So, so proud of all this beautiful movement taking place in the right direction! THANK YOU Prospect Park!!!
Yeah! Great news, great day for soap fans! OLTL needs the Buchanans.
We sure do !!!!!!
This is the best news ever~
Michael thanks so much for passing on this wonderful news from PP about Jerry Verdorn aka Clint Buchanan! Love him and this is some of the best news 🙂
I hope that Jerry’s comments are enough to dispel any disbelieve that anyone has had about OLTL’s reboot happening.
I can not wait until the show begins !
The good news keeps on coming! I am looking forward to hearing who else will be joining Mr. VerDorn.
LOVE it!!! What he said was perfect. I never gave up hope.
Now Clint is going to need his Viki and Dorian!!
DITTO!!!!!!!!!!
I’m afraid to hope that this will really happen. Crossing my fingers that it does. I love JVD and Clint! Hope we hear of more OLTL actors signing on soon.
Hey Michael, It will be so cool when you can take the RIP off of OLTL & AMC……LOL : )
Hey Torrey!
Stay tuned the RIP’s will be coming down soon!
Best always
Michael
If that is the PP deal will actually go through this time!
That’s right Chris!
Waiting to see the production start date!
Best always,
Michael
PP also has to make a deal with the WGA too to make this really happen!
I hope this definetely happens this time. It all sounds good so far but I hope it will again definetely happen… I miss these soaps so much. Especially miss
most of all Erika Slezak(Viki),(blondie). My favorite on OLTL (#1) in my book!
GREAT NEWS!!! I wonder if we will get new opening credits and theme music.. my fav OLTL opening is with pebro singing……………
I like the theme song it had. I hope it doesn’t change!
I go around humming both of them all the time-love them both-so glad to even be discussing this! SO EXCITED.
I seen this posted on facebook and was jumping up and down literly!!!! Now we need ES, RW, MA, ME, TW, RH, TSJ, KDP and so on! I think we will hear more before the weeks out. I’m more positive after today but being a long time Jolie and TnB fan its gonna be bitter sweet for me.
I agree!
This is getting more promising with each passing day, may it continue!!! I am glad to see Jerry aka Clint on board. Here is hoping his coming back will help lure Erika Slezak, Robert Woods and Hillary B Smith (although I believe she might be doing another online soap) back as well. I hope all of our beloved actors and actresses, who have not moved on to other shows or endeavors can all come back too, like Trevor St. John (Victor), Rex and Gigi, Roxy, Blair and her boys, Tea and her daughter, Shaun, Destiny and Mathew B, the hunky Ford Brothers, and the Buchanan girls, just to name a few on OLTL. I am also excited about AMC !!!!
Last year at the end.. there were 13? OLTL who had signed on to go forward on-line..
I’m sure now they still will, all of them 🙂
we just have to wait to hear ..
Not all. One is contracted to GH 😉
Actually, Michael Easton (McBain), Kristen Alderson (Starr), and Roger Howarth (Todd) all have contracts to GH!
But only one of them had announced they were staying with PP…
We don’t know how long their contact w/GH is ???? Maybe they will return or
maybe not. We will just have to wait & see.
Still Hoping for ES and RS, without them there is no show.
Let’s go Prospect Park! Now we need Ms. Victoria, Dorian, Joey and Kelly, and Blair and Jack, Tea and Dani. Go, go, go!
ME & KA can head back for all I care….Start packing………..
KA has a 3 year contract and I believe ME only signed on for 6 months.
I’m hoping ME will head back to Llanview and Natalie & Liam 😉 Todd & Starr are working out nicely in Port Charles, so they can stay with brief pop-ins to visit Blair, Dorian, Vickie, etc.
awesome news!
Will GH be apart of Prospect Park? I thought PP had brought rights to them too.
Great news! Can someone please tell Chris to stop acting like their the only person who was disappointed in PP falling through last year and get out of the past!! Everything is falling into place and this is going to happen this time. Get over it negative Chris! 🙂
Jerry IS IN THE HOUSE!!! Fantastic news!
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!
Very Happy!!!
When will the RIPs come down?
I was wondering too. Like a dead soap character risen from the ashes! HA!
wow. really happenning!
Mr. Fairman, when you remove the R.I.P.s could you add “Pretty Little Liars” to your list? Other than GH and SOAPnet it is the ONLY ABC/D product I watch. It is an excellent drama featuring many soap actors. Thank you for your consideration.
Awesome news!! Can’t wait to hear more. Can’t wait for the return of OLTL. Been too long without it!!
Great- now how about Erika Slezak?
I think its fantastic, he was always a good guy. Love him
