August 21, 2007 CBS Soaps In Depth
While some actors fret that daytime doesn't get the respect that it deserves among Hollywood's elite, Y&R's Don Diamont (Brad) shrugs aside such worries. "There are so many great actors who have been on daytime and go on to become primetime stars and movie stars and then they come back to do daytime," he shares. "Actors are actors. If you're good at what you can do, if you can deliver in your profession, you can work in any medium." And as far as great actors in daytime go, Diamont points to co-star Eric Braeden (Victor). "A lot of guys who made fun of Eric's decision to move into daytime, none of those guys are working today. They can't get arrested. And Eric is as successful as ever," says the hunk. "I think that I work with some of the best people in the business on the show that I'm on now. They're wonderful actors and I've learned a lot from all of them, and really appreciate the opportunity to work with them."
