On April 5, 2006, Soap Talk on the Soapnet network saluted ATWT for it's 50th Anniversary. I will try here to give you a virtual viewing. It was a very emotional hour, and it was obvious that the cast members care very much about each other, and about ATWT.

The first cast members to appear were Michael Park and Maura West. They were very affectionate with one another, and Michael was very humorous and funny. They first met when he auditioned for the role of Paul Ryan!! He screen tested with her. She was pregnant at the time.

He said it was nothing for him to "cozy up to Mojo" because they have a brother/sister relationship. They discussed how accident prone she is,

In fact, one of the pieces of equipment used on an overhead camera has a "Maura cushion" on it, because of her hitting her head on it, and bleeding.

They pointed out which equipment it is like.

She always can get into character immediately, but he says, laughingly, that " I never get into the character, really. I like staying completely unfocused, it's working well."

They agreed that their scenes in Teague's cabin was their favorite story
