Many of you are aware of a "game" where you try to connect a random actor to Kevin Bacon by only 6 degrees of working together. I thought it might be fun to pick random actors and see if we can connect them to Days in 6 degrees or less.

For example, taking Kevin Bacon, he was on the Guiding Light back in the day. He did a few episodes with actress Lenore Kasdorf. Lenore did 4 episodes of Days in 1984 as Dr. Veronica Kimball. So that was only 2 degrees.

If you want to stretch it out a bit, Lenore Kasdorf did 1 episode of Magnum PI. Tom Selleck was on Y&R with Jaime Lyn Bauer, who went on to be Laura Horton on Days. That's 3 degrees.

So here's one to try: Tom Hanks (I literally picked his name at random). Let's see if we can connect him to Days within 6 degrees.
 
LOL, knew Liz Taylor was on GH, but could not connect it to Days......thanks for figuring a way, shaky as it is......... LOLOLOL
 
Elizabeth Taylor played Helena Cassadine (a villainess) on GH. Helena's brother-in-law was Victor Cassadine, played by Thaao Penghlis (Tony/Andre on Days). Helena also had it out for Laura Spencer on GH, played by Genie Francis, who later went on to Days as Diana Colville.
 
I might have misunderstood the game, but shouldn't they have been on the show at the same time? We could still connect Liz Taylor in the same number of steps though because we could swap out Genie Francis (who appeared on GH with Liz Taylor and appeared on Days) with Kate Mansi.
 
She was in Bond movies with Pierce Brosnan. Pierce Brosnan was on Remington Steele. James Read did 22 episodes of Remington Steele. James Read was Clyde on Days.

Or, she was in Bond movies with Pierce Brosnan. Pierce Brosnan was on Remington Steele with Doris Roberts. Doris Roberts was on the show Angie with Tammy Lauren. Tammy Lauren was on Y&R with Eileen Davidson. Eileen Davidson was Kristen/Susan/et al. on Days.
 
Denzel Washington was on St. Elsewhere with Christina Pickles. Christina Pickles was on Friends with Morgan Fairchild. Morgan Fairchild was the last actress to play Anjelica Deveraux on Days.

Or Denzel Washington was on St. Elsewhere with William Daniels. William Daniels (as the voice of KITT) was on Knight Rider with David Hasselhoff. David Hasselhoff was on Y&R with Jaime Lyn Bauer. Jaime Lyn Bauer was Laura Horton on Days.

How about Barbara Eden next.
 
Barbara Eden was on I Dream of Genie with Larry Hagman who played JR on Dallas. Patrick Duffy was Bobby on Dallas and was on Bold and the Beautiful as Stephen. Linsey Godfrey played Caroline on Bold and is now Sarah on Days.

How about Bing Crosby next.
 
Try Candice Bergen.
Candice Bergen was on Murphy Brown. Her painter Eldin was played by (Robert Pastorelli) who played a pimp on Night Court (Season 5 episode 11) with John Larroquette, Harry Anderson, and Richard Moll. The first episode of Night Court featured those three actors as well as Peggy McCay (Caroline on Days).
