COMMENTS FROM THE PANEL:
Alan Carter: The true mark of what he meant to daytime...within about three months of his arrival, every show had a guy with an accent. Note to producers: it wasn't just the accent we fell for. The man could act!

Roger Newcomb: Not only did he take daytime by storm in the 1980s and leave his mark on the genre, his 2008 comeback on NIGHT SHIFT was brilliant. In 2010 he's about to shake up the industry again by starring as Trevor Rains in his new web soap REALITY BYTES.
