Daytime’s Most Legendary Crossover Characters: Young & Restless’ Sally and 10 More Who Couldn’t Be Contained by One Soap
“Don’t Fence Me In” might as well be their theme song.

Included among the fictional folks who’ve pulled off the ol’ switcheroo are one of daytime’s most infamous villains ever, a One Life to Live detective who turned up more than a clue on General Hospital, and a largely forgotten legacy character who did what no one before had ever done (and, in fact, what only could’ve been done while Port Charles was still on the air).
Heck, there’s even a Ryan’s Hope troublemaker who got a new lease on life almost 25 years after she last aired on her original soap.
