Jeff Branson

Chemistry Timebomb?


Is it just me or are Shayne (Jeff Branson) and Dinah (Gina Tognoni) smokin hot? Is it possible that Guiding Light has the hottest couple on its hands since Bizzie's first chemistry laden scenes?

First Impressions: Jeff Branson on Guiding Light


Now that Guiding Light fans have had a chance to watch Jeff Branson as Shayne Lewis I'd love to know what your first impressions have been. On All My Children I thought he was a good actor but I couldn't stand that he was a Lavery and I hated the love story with Lily.

What are your impressions of Branson on Guiding Light?

A Formal Complaint


Is there somewhere a fan can register a formal complaint because I'd like to make one, specifically with All My Children?

A few years back an unknown by the name of James Scott debuted on All My Children as Ethan Cambias. Two years later Ethan had been written into a corner and killed off. Fortunately, he quickly found a home on Days of Our Lives as EJ Wells DiMera and is now one third of the show's hottest triangle.

In 2004 Jeff Branson debuted as Jonathan Lavery and proved he had acting chops, holding his own amid a controversial storyline. But like James Scott's Ethan, Jonathan was written into a corner and then phased out of the show on the quite. Branson is now set to appear on Guiding Light as Shayne Lewis. Granted, we have yet to see how the role of Shayne Lewis fits with Branson but to be sure a lot of All My Children fans will be watching, either on TV or through YouTube highlights. READ MORE

Jeff Branson, The New Shayne Lewis


We were wondering how long it would take for a show to scoop up Jeff Branson after he left All My Children. Now we know. Soap Opera Digest is reporting that Guiding Light has cast Branson as the new Shayne Lewis.

It should be interesting to see what kind of dynamic Branson's Shayne has with Kim Zimmer's Reva in comparison to Tom Pelphrey's Jonathon.
