Reunion Special:
Thorsten
Kaye Zach
is a little
lonely without former co-star Ian Buchanan ex-Greg. "I miss him,"
Kaye
frowns. "He's such a great guy. I just liked working with him and I
still
don't know why they killed Madden. He wasn't that bad! I just
miss
him as a friend, as a person. He was such a good guy to talk to. I have
no one to talk sports with here; not one person." The actor is even
waiting
to get creative about ways he and Buchanan could meet again. "What do
you
think of this? Me and him playing brothers on BOLD AND BEAUTIFUL [where
Buchanan played James]." Would Kaye's character be introduced as a
virgin,
just as Buchanan's was? "Oh, no. I don't dance and I don't
play
virgins.
People won't buy it."

What’s
the funniest
practical joke played
on your set
recently?
"Hmm. Practical jokes. I really can’t think of any. It’s not like it
was with [Robert S.] Woods [Bo] over at ONE LIFE [where Kaye played
Patrick];
there are no practical jokes around here." Digest voices its
suspicion,
having heard that he hid Ian Buchanan’s [ex-Greg, inset] bicycle in his
dressing room to make him think it had been stolen. "Yeah, but that’s
different: That was spite, not a practical joke. That was me trying to
hurt someone, not me trying to be funny. It wasn’t like, ‘Oh, I’ll give
it back to you later.' I was trying to steal it, I swear."

If you
could
change one
thing that happened
on your
show this year, what would it be?
Thorsten Kaye says: "I
think Jay
Pickett [Frank] is one
of the
best people you'll ever meet. He
put his neck
out
for the Avatar story, which wasn't perfect.
For
me,
there were some problems with it. What
I'd
change
is the fact that if they ask you to do things and take one for the
company,
they need to reward you...and I haven't seen Jay. I
would like him to be on more.You
talk about a
team
player, and Jay's one of them."
