Ever think you have what it takes to make it in the cutthroat world of soap opera acting? If so, maybe you should get some face time with "One Life to Live" superstar Robin Strasser, who plays Dorian Lord. One of her most memorable on-screen romantic pairings was with youngster Joey Buchanan, played by Nathan Fillion. Nathan -- who just got the good news that his primetime show "Castle" has been picked up for a second season by ABC -- recently praised his experience working with Robin in an interview with Soap Central: "Working with Robin Strasser was one of the smoothest times I had on the show. Here I was, the brand new guy, but working besides Robin made it very hard for me to fail."

Robin was touched by the heartfelt comments and had this to say to TV Guide Canada: "This is an amazing validation from Nathan. You know one of the things I adored about him was his timeless and classic style, which reminded me of all my favorite stars from films of the '30s and '40s. When he left to try out his 'luck' in Hollywood, I threw him a goodbye party at my home. I felt we were losing a gigantic talent, and I was right. Look at him now. And he's aged into such a handsome man."
