The Newfound Family Guy
Kaye says Zach's happier than he's ever been.
Soaps In Depth - May 8, 2007
 Back
when AMC's Zach made his first appearance as a morally questionable casino
owner, kids were the farthest thing from the brooding loner's life.
And later, Ethan didn't help matters. "He never had a chance to be a father
to that guy, because he was so angry," says portrayer Thorsten Kaye. "That
was part of the storyline that I didn't care for, because it always seemed
that Ethan was just angry at Zach for nothing Zach could control," Kaye
says. "And the problem with this character is that he's always trying to
do the right thing and he always ends up hurting other people by doing
the right thing, so that's kind of what happened." But Spike's arrival,
and now Kendall's pregnancy, have mellowed the cynical Cambias CEO, and
Kaye welcomes Zach's hopeful new outlook. "He's never had a baby,
so I think maybe he thinks this is a new chance for him to maybe redeem
himself."
