Turns out Days of our Lives’ Cary Christopher wasn’t the only daytime TV star set to appear in one of those much-anticipated commercials shown during Super Bowl LVIII.
Super Bowl LVIII Soap Star Greatness!
General Hospital’s Kate Mansi (Kristina Davis) played a frazzled mother trying to wrap her head around her hubby and offspring smashing several good-sized holes into the family home with the intent of getting a better internet signal rather than switch T-Mobile to Spectrum. (No prize for guessing which company produced the short.)
Meanwhile, soap hopper Patrika Darbo (Nancy Wesley, DAYS; Shirley Spectra, B&B and Y&R; Violet, Studio City) starred alongside Saturday Night Live‘s Heidi Gardner in a spot for Homes.com.
The late, lamented One Life to Live even found itself tangentially tied to the big game when Patricia Mauceri (ex-Carlotta Vega) debuted as ‘Dina’, who, alongside her sister Mita, doled out biddy justice on a man who swiped the last bag of Doritos Dinamita Chile Lime chips.
Which Super Bowl ad did you prefer? Was it one of the four containing soap stars, or another one entirely? Let us know in the comments.
