  2. Likely his character will be YET ANOTHER love interest for Alison since he's under 30 and that's sadly the norm for every stright guy under 30 to fall under her spell inexplicably.

    *sigh*


    Where's Jade?

  3. Seriously, what's inside of Alison's vag that everyone falls to their feet the second they meet her?

  4. Wow i'm stunned! i know he was negoitating with "GH" for a long time and i guess ABC couldn't make him a good enough offer. But he's a great actor and i'll watch him on ATWT... maybe he can replace Roger Howarth who has been phoning it in for a long time now?

  5. but what sucks is that now more than likely no actors from GL will cross over to ATWT.

  6. Roger Howarth and Tom P on the same soap are going to kick OLTL's butt!

  7. Ok The Problem with ATWT is not its cast its the writing. They could have Meryl streep, Jack Nicholson etc and the writing would still be the downfall

    One Life has nothing to worry about especially with Dave Kriezman coming over to ATWT from GL
    Sorry may be brutal but just being honest

  8. The question I have is whether Tom will be playing Jonathan. If so, that means other GL actors could cross over to reprise their characters. If he's playing another character all together, then Katie is right...no GL actors could come over. Could you see Kim Zimmer as Reva making an appearance seeing Tom as another character? That wouldn't work. Although, that wouldn't be any more dumb than Buzz mentioning ATWT when he was in New York a couple of weeks ago. That comment would have sent Doc Brown spinning into a catatonic state! (Remember, Cass Winthrop was on both ATWT and GL, so what universe did that put Buzz in?)

  9. OMG! This made my day, week, year!! I am so happy. I love Tom Pelphrey, he is one AWESOME actor. I was so sad when he left GL. I watch ATWT and I was thrilled to hear this!!!!

  10. Tom's going to ATWT has nothing to do with other GL actors following him there. Chris G. is doing all he can to hang on and avoid cancellation. He might bring more!

  11. Actually, if Tom comes over as another character and a GL actor comes over as their GL character, who's to say Tom's new character couldn't be Jonathan's long lost twin brother? Tom could play both. They did it with Lujack and Nick on GL...why not? There are no barriers in soaps!
