At a fan lunch a few weeks ago, Chris C came up with a great idea for an email campaign for Rick.
I'm passing it along to all of you to join in on, as it sounds like a lot of fun. Chris also presented Rick with Craig Ferguson's book that day, which he immediately began reading and absolutely loved, so this seems
like a campaign custom made for our Rick. Details directly from Chris are as follows:
This is how I
explained it to the few I e-mailed it to:
I've come up with an e-mail campaign to possibly
get RH on Craig Ferguson's show. Daniel McVicar (BB) has been on numerous times (17, according to his
site) and I'm asking for RH to be able to join McVicar the next time he pops in on Craig.
I told Rick at FCW now that he's a CBS employee again,
I wanted to get him on Craig's show!!
All we have to do is send an e-mail, every day, to CBS, saying:
"Daniel McVicar
Needs a Cohort on His Next Visit With Craig"
Hi Craig. I love the skits with Daniel
McVicar. Do you think you'd consider letting actor Rick Hearst join in on the fun? Rick Hearst
used to be on "The Bold and the Beautiful" (CBS) years ago and has recently returned to show as Whipple "Whip" Jones.
You'd make a lot of soap fans happy!! (And, yes, his character's name is really Whip!!)
Please log on to: http://www.cbs.com/late_late_show/. Then click"Email Craig." Send every day (or as much as you can), using one of these subject
lines -- you're typing in fields, no room for an actual subject line:
Daniel McVicar Needs a Cohort on His Next Visit With Craig;
or
Daniel McVicar/Rick Hearst -- The Bold and the Beautiful
Campaign (or make up your own if you're familiar with Craig's
show)
So go, join in the fun, and let's get
Rick booked on late night!!
Do you have an idea for what to do
for Rick? Share your ideas! Let's get some fun things started!!
Sarah Brown’s last day playing GENERAL HOSPITAL’s Claudia is Thursday, November 5 —
and her first day playing THE BOLD & THE BEAUTIFUL’s Sandy Sommers is Friday, November 6! A GH rep confirms published
reports that Brown is switching soaps and that ABC allowed the actress an early exit from her contract, which was set to end
on Thursday, January 14. She signed a two-year agreement with B&B; production of the two soaps will overlap for a week
only. “I’m thrilled with the way they’re doing it,” Brown tells the Associated Press of her GH
exit. “It pays off for the audience and in a good way for all of us.” Sandy reportedly will be involved in Nick,
Bridget and Whip’s B&B storylines. Brown's no stranger to CBS, having played AS THE WORLD TURNS' Julia from 2004-05.
08-31-2009:CONGRATS TO B&B ON THEIR 1ST BEST SERIES EMMY WIN!

in to B&B to see what's up with Whipple Jones, III ... and the magic that Rick brings to the screen with every performance.
I'm trying to get time with him to do a newsletter, so if you are in his fan club and you've moved within the past year,
please email your new address to me so that I can update your records. You won't want to miss it!
Best,

From Rick's Fan Club: June 25, 2009:
Well, the day has finally come. Ric Lansing has left the building ... and Port Charles. When Rick joined General Hospital
and created this unbelievable, one of a kind role, many of us met for the very first time and fast friendships were borne,
many incredible fansites/message boards were established ... and two wonderful Emmy's came home with Rick! It's
been a fun,fun ride, but it's also been a bit sad at time ... to think of the things that might have been, with missed opportunities
and amazing story lines that might have been. Regardless, we move on!
Please take a moment to drop by Rick's website at www.RickHearst.com and leave him a message, then get ready to join Rick on The Bold and The Beautiful as Whip Jones
returns to Los Angeles to see what possibilities can stirred up
there! It promises to be a good time.
We are planning one last fun, wonderful Sunday Brunch With The Family for Rick during his last
General Hospital fan club weekend, and we hope that you'll be there
to help us tie it all up this one last time. Tickets are still available at www.YourNumberOneFan.com. Sign up now as we do this one last time.
Thank you for all the love and support you have shown to Rick during his time at General
Hospital. We hope now you will come along for what comes next at B&B!
