Absolutely no crime, lawyer, doctor shows. They bore me to pieces. LAST BOOK YOU READ? The Gnostic Gospels. Before that, The War on Civilization. Presently, A Shadow in Summer. FAVORITE ALBUM? Don’t get me wrong, I like music. I just can’t keep any band/song/record names straight. That said, it’s probably something classic rock. FAVORITE NON-SOAP HOBBY? Traveling, cooking, mixing drinks. WHAT SOAPS DO YOU WATCH AND FOR HOW MANY YEARS HAVE YOU WATCHED EACH ONE? WHAT GOT YOU STARTED? I only watch General Hospital. I’ve briefly watched AMC, PC, OLTL, and Days but General Hospital is really it for me. My first GH memory is Frisco and Felicia’s wedding. I was 5. FAVORITE MALE CHARACTER FROM EACH SHOW ? For non-GH soaps, I can only answer for past characters. I don’t even know who’s on presently. GH: Frisco, still to this day. Though I’d have a thing or two to say to him about abandoning his family for the past 15 or so years. OLTL: Bo Buchanan AMC: I honestly can’t remember any of them. I therefore nominate whatever role Ian Buchanan is playing. FAVORITE FEMALE CHARACTER, SAME? GH: Robin, Georgie, and Alexis before her lung cancer ate her brain. OLTL: Blair’s the most fun. AMC: I remember vaguely liking Dixie. FAVORITE STORYLINE FROM EACH SHOW YOU WATCH (PAST OR PRESENT)? OLTL: The first Christian and Jessica romance was sweet but Bo and Nora’s romance was fabulous. The Buchanan men riding in on horseback for Asa’s wedding to Olivia--classic. GH: BJ’s heart goes to Maxie, Stone’s death, the Sonny and Brenda run, and when Frisco tore out my heart by flipping the light a second time. AMC: Yeah, I can’t really remember those. LEAST FAVORITE MALE CHARACTER FROM EACH? OLTL: The never well-cast Kevin Buchanan. GH: Jax, though he’s been tolerable lately. AMC: No Answer. LEAST FAVORITE FEMALE CHARACTER FROM EACH? OLTL: Lindsay Rappaport GH: Carly, Carly, Carly, and any nondescript brunette Sonny’s bagged (this includes Emily). AMC: No answer LEAST FAVORITE STORYLINE FROM EACH? OLTL: When the Rappaports multiplied and took over every scene in Llanview. GH: The Robin, Jason, and Carly house sharing. Brenda and Jax having loads of couch sex. Alexis has a long lost daughter and gets lung cancer. AMC: I don’t think I liked any of them I saw.
