I think Jack has been recasted the most with six actors playing the role, Matt Ashfored has been the most popular in the role.

There have been 5 Hopes,7 Samis,5 Lexies, 5 Lauras and the winner easily is Micheal Horton. There have been 14 Mikes.

5 Hopes??? what other Hope do you know of besides Kristian Alfonso?

I think Soapnexis is saying that the previous 4 Hopes were when Hope was growing up (She was born in 1973) but Kristian Alfonso is the only one to play the adult Hope.

Wow, 14 Mikes? Are you serious? I only know of Roark Critchlow, and I've heard of Michael T. Weiss.

There have also been 5 Julies.
