Nadia Bjorlin (Chloe, DAYS) “Ooh, you know, I’ve never been a fan. I sometimes try to, but realistically, I don’t really watch myself because I am too judgmental of myself and would focus on the wrong things. I go back and forth on that. But I really just try to forget.”
Bryton James (Devon, Y&R) “I feel like it’s something normal because it’s been a part of my life for as long as I can remember.”
Finola Hughes (Anna, GH) “I can’t do it. That’s my answer!”
Lindsay Arnold (Allie, DAYS) “Honestly, I don’t do it often. It’s definitely a really weird thing. I’ll watch myself if I’m curious to see how a scene turned out or if it’s something I felt really proud of, but I’m not generally a huge fan of watching myself.”
Thorsten Kaye (Ridge, B&B) “I don’t watch myself. It’s never work when I do it and no, I have never watched it.”
Marci Miller (Abigail, DAYS) “No thank you. No thanks. Skip it! Not interested.”
Charles Shaughnessy (Victor, GH) “I like to do it privately; I’m not a great one for viewing parties. I’ll go and look quietly by myself and my wife will say, ‘What are you doing?’ and I say, ‘Nothing!’ I think for me, it’s good to watch because there may be some things that I don’t like that I see and I can correct. I think it’s a useful tool for that, to make sure you can fine-tune a performance. Once I’ve seen enough and feel like I have the character set, I don’t need to be checking in all the time.”

Cait Fairbanks (Tessa, Y&R) “I hate it! My mom will say, ‘You should watch this scene,’ and I’m like, ‘No, no, no. How dare you.’ I can’t stand watching myself.”
