I love that Melody T Scott was number 2!
Crystal Chappell as number 1 should surprise no one, congrats to her.
While I would have loved if Brett and Scott debuted a bit higher, 39 and 38 is still a pretty respectable debut considering they were probably on almost nobody's radar the first half of the year (before the Kish story was announced).

I feel REALLY stupid, but I do not understand how this list was compiled. Does every entry with that actors name count as a "point"? Is it based on a search engine? Someone please help me understand. Thank you, Stupid in Atlanta!

I am so thrilled to see that Crystal Chappell earned the number one spot in the HOT 100 because she has been on fire this year. I have never seen anything like in my 28 years of watching soaps. Congratulations CC, you earned it baby and so much more will come your way in the future. You are a force of nature.

Congrats! Crystal you are so loved and your fans like myself wish you all the success in the world on DOOL , Venice, and any other pursuit you take on. You give so much and ask for so little. You are not only the best actress on DOOL you are the best actress in any genre!!!

Its great to see Brett and Scott on the list and #38 and #39 isnt a bad start for these handsome guys whose storyline only started in June,...Congratulations to them.....

Dinah I disagree. I think NP has grown quite a bit since he first came on the show and I am really looking forward to this upcoming Kiefer/Kristina/Ethan storyline esp. since its going to pit the Spencer/Quartermaine clan against the Corinthos/Davis clan.
The problem with GH isnt NP but the way the writers introduced the character and their refusal to deal aggressively with TG's demands that Ethan turn out to be a Spencer and not a Scorpio. Ethan gets bashed because he is the symbol of luke cheating on Laura and to me if any character should be bashed for that one its Luke.

Marcy Rylan rocks. Any soap would be crazy not pick her up when her maternity ends.
So happy my too faves were on it, Cosgrove and Rylan and they both gained from last year.
