Johnathan Jackson went toe to toe in scenes with Tony Geary and held his own. Luke and Lucky, aka "cowboy" were a great duo.
Kimberly McCullough was only 7 or 8 when Robin first came on the show had played a major role with a lot of air time.
1995 by Amber Tamblyn, who joined GH in the role of Emily when she was 12.
The above were all children decades ago when they started on GH.
I have always been impressed by Jophielle Love and her portrayal of Violet. The show gave her some very heavy scenes and she nailed all of them.
All were given solid storylines and knocked it out of the park. It doesn't matter how good the actor is if they don't have a well-written/developed character who has a variety of scenes and relationships with a variety of characters.
I am impressed by how good a casting job GH does for child actors. I think the girl who plays Donna is delightful, the scenes with James were always watchable. I also think he actors who play Rocco and Danny always do a good job with the material they are given.
