Y&R’s Eric Braeden (Victor) Sounds Off About The Last Year In Genoa City — And Why He Thinks It Is Returning To Its Former Glory.

Back On Top

Soap Opera Digest: The tribute to Neil just aired. What was that like for you to film?

Eric Braeden: It was regurgitating emotions that we’ve all gone through, obviously, in the time of [Kristoff St. John’s] death. It’s pretty tough. It really is. It was tough because you realize it was not acting, it was final. He’s gone. Anyway, very moving, I have to say.

Digest: We’ve gotten a sense from the comments you made on social media what a personal friend Kristoff was.

Braeden: One of the few people I trusted. One of the very few. Two or three. That’s it.

Digest: Why do you think he inspired trust in you?

Braeden: Because he came to me at a time and told me something that no one else really talked about. He and Dougie Davidson [Paul] both. I appreciate them for doing it. That’s enough.

Digest: The actors allowing themselves to feel all of that stuff really made for a cathartic viewing experience, as well.
