[robinsnest]

This list is amazing, as is the one on your website.

Thank you for this.

 

[Noel]

Yes! Matt Ashford (Jack) is #27!!!!!

 

[Heather4CU]

Jason, didn't Alison Sweeney (Sami) also play young Adrienne in a flashback years before she became Sami?

 

[DrBakerFan]

OMG, Shawn Christian (Dr. Daniel Jonas) is only number 40? All his worshipers in Salem will demand a recount.

 

[Just Samantha]

Jason, didn't Alison Sweeney (Sami) also play young Adrienne in a flashback years before she became Sami?

Yes, she played young Adrienne in a flashback in June/1987. According to Beth's Days of Our Lives Page (no longer online), the flashback was shown 3 times.

 

[Jason47]

Jason, didn't Alison Sweeney (Sami) also play young Adrienne in a flashback years before she became Sami?

Yes, the only roles listed are those that qualify for 5 episodes. Judi Evans (Adrienne) played Nurse Becky, Frank Parker (Pop Shawn Brady) played a Car Salesman, Brandon Beemer (Shawn-Douglas) played a laywer, etc... and some contract actors came back years later in small roles (Jeff Griggs, Matt Mahaney, Eileen Barnett).

But the rankings list is just for characters in at least 5 episodes (with a few exceptions for babies like Joy Wesley and baby Nathan Curtis, since they were children of characters).

[Poirot]

Ah, yes, one can remember how his appearances took a nose dive beginning in Aug. 15, (although I think he was making a movie then, wasn't he?) Even though 2016 had 6 or 7 appearances, he was constantly talked about throughout the year, and yep, it continues.

 

[Heather4CU]

His appearances started taking a nosedive as soon as Higley and Griffith took over in September 2015. So did Greg Vaughan's (Eric) appearances.
