Forbes Marches toward Oakdale
You might remember him as Nash Brennan, the aspiring vineyard owner who fell in love with Tess (then Jessica), broke up Jessica's marriage to Antonio, and met an untimely end on "One Life to Live." Or, if you watched "All My Children" in the late '90s, you might recall him as the Scott Chandler who fell in love with P.V. newcomer Becca (Abigail Spencer). But actor Forbes March has a new gig lined up -- and it's taking him to Oakdale.
According to Soap Opera Digest, Forbes will join the cast of "As The World Turns" in July as Mason -- Noah's college advisor, who also happens to be gay. Don't worry, though -- rumor has it that Mason won't come between Noah and Luke. However, the actor IS aware he'll be seen as a potential danger to a beloved storyline: "Having received death threats when I played Nash and I had to deal with Antonio fans, I think I'm ready for them," Forbes told SoapOperaDigest.com.
Forbes's first airdate as Mason is July 14th.
What kind of impact do you think Mason will have on Noah?

I miss Forbes on oltl....He is a fabulous actor, loved him in Mutant X as well. I hear he is no longer on ATWT, he was too good for that show, ATWT sucks, I never watched it only started watching cause Forbes was on. Nash and Jessica belonged together, big mistake OLTL to get rid of Forbes. PLEASE........Bring Forbes back as Nash..I, like so many others that I know stop watching OLTL when they decided to kill off Nash..The storylines are so boring....only intresting twist is Mitch killing Jared (which i loved). Jared got was he deserved for killing Nash. I want Nash to come back from the dead, maybe a twin that would be quite a love triangle with Nash/Jessica/Brody...Jessica is still very much in love with Nash he will always be in her heart. Bring Nash Back in 2010 please OLTL
please i want forbes back as nash,back with jessica,i was so devestated when he died on oltl,he is an awsome actor,and i rally don't watch aswt but,i might just to see him,i love him as an actor and i miss seeing him onscreen.but if he goes back o oltl,it would make me so happy
I think it is an insult to put Forbes March in a roll that says he is gay. there is nothing gay about him. i dont know what the reason he left OLTL, but he needs to come back. There is someone following Jessica on OLTL, i really hope it is the original Forbes March and not some new comer. We got all of these characters ti come back to the show. we did a petition for forbes to stay on the show. what do we have to do to get him back in a more deserving role. this guy is good and all of you know it. we just do not like our characters being taken away and given to another show. please someone do something. forbes march playing a gay role. i dont think so!
bring Nash back. Jessica is not the same person without him. She says she loves him. I am married myself and if that happened to me I would drop brody quick like. He is hot!!!! so hot but nash and jessica deserve to be together
I want Nash back in Llanview. Brody is hot but Nash is hotter.
I AND OTHER WHO CHAT IN THE FORUM 4 OLTL MISS FORBES MARCH AS NASH! I DON'T CARE WHAT WRITERS HAVE TO DO 2 GET "HIM" BACK. BUT RAISE/BETTER OFFER THAN THE SHOW HE'S ON NOW AND BRING HIM BACK AS NASH! HE WAS WAY WAY WAY BETTER, HOTTER, SEXIER AND ALL AROUND FABULOUS 2 WATCH THAN ANTONIO. WE MISS NASH BIG TIME. HE SHOULD BE PAIRED UP WITH ANOTHER GIRL ON OLTL SO BRODY AND JESS CAN MOVE ON 2GETHER. BRING FORBES BACK AS NASH'S TWIN, OR A TWIST FROM NASH'S PAST..AN EVIL GUY KIDKNAPPED HIM AND STAGED HIS DEATH. THAT HE REALLY DIDN'T DIE THOUGH CLOSE 2 IT.
I like nash with jes-tess but brodys hot to but nash just clickswith jes
i want him to come back to one life to live. thats where be belongs :(
I enjoyed watching Forbes March on OLTL. I stopped watching when they killed him off. I had watched OLTL for decades, but I found the story lines boring without him. Now, I'll start watching ATWT. First time ever to watch any daytime soaps except ABC soaps. If the writers do a good job I might continue watching after they kill him off. Then again maybe not.
I thiink Forbes needs to go back to Jesica. He was a great acter on One Life to live. He is more a Jessica man. He is a hottie
