Recasting a well-established soap opera character can be a daunting task for both actors and producers, especially if that role is a fan favorite. Daytime drama audiences can fall in love with a character, as well as the actors and actresses that play them, so filling those shoes can be a huge challenge. Sometimes recasts can be an epic fail, while other times they can be a huge success. Below are seven of the best soap opera recasting decisions.

That bit about Jill Abbott is incorrect. Brenda Dickson played the character (and VERY well) during the 1980s for several years. So the statement that Walton was there since 1973 is absolutely not correct.

Wikipedia lists the year Walton started as 1987. Quite a difference!
