No but Tamara Tunie has been out of ATWT so long, she doesn't even belong in the list. Than give the position to Maura/Kelley.

Tamera has had bigger impact on the show in her over 15 year total run. Which has spawned many covers of SOD & SOW. From a historical standpoint she deserves to be there.

Marie has not been on the series long enough to make it to the list. That would be just wrong!

Marie Wilson was left out!?! She has been an intricate part of so many storylines and plots. She should always be number one.

Marie has not been on the series as long as these actresses have been.

What! You do not have Eileen Fulton listed? Obviously someone did not search YouTube well enough. When Lisa was front and center, she was fantastic. Another terrific actress is Ellen Dolan. The sceens where Margo was raped were heartbreaking.

Carly has got to be the best actress to ever hit the canvas of As The World Turns. This woman is absolutely awesome and when the end comes I pray that she will pursue her talent in TV so I can remain enjoying her talent.

I think that is a VERY accurate list. I wish it could go to 10 because there are some amazing actress on this show that have stood out in the 54 years it has been on. The only ones I could really think to add would include Helen Wagner as Nancy Hughes (just because she is THE matriarch of the show) and Ellen Dolan as Margo Hughes (because of the rape/HIV storyline and how realistic her performance was).

terri colombino should be on the list martha byrne should be out, in my opinon.

The actresses on this list made the biggest impact on this show. Terri did not. Although good Terri is she not one the actresses that will go down in the fabric of ATWT's history.
