The "High School Musical" and Broadway alum (he starred in, "In The Heights") was thrown into the deep end of Llanview as soon as the show debuted online in late April, pairing him up on screen with Victoria Lord, played by multi-Emmy winner Erika Slezak.

"She is the sweetest woman you will ever meet," Corbin told AccessHollywood.com of his celebrated ...

Pine Valley and Llanview are open for business again ... in a much different place.

They'll be used to launch The Online Network on iTunes and the Internet platforms Hulu (for free) and Hulu Plus (by subscription).

Many actors are back for the new iterations. "All My Children" again features Vincent Irizarry (alias that show's David), Debbi Morgan (Angela), Thorsten Kaye (Zach), Lindsay Hartley (Cara) and Darnell Williams (Jesse). The "One Life to Live" cast reunion includes seven-time Daytime Emmy winner Erika Slezak (Viki), Robert S. Woods (Bo), Robin Strasser (Dorian), Kassie DePaiva (Blair), Roger Howarth (Todd), Melissa Archer (Natalie), Hillary B. Smith (Nora) and Jerry verDorn (Clint).

You Can't Keep A Good Soap Down

25 April 2013 11:57 AM, PDT | Huffington Post | See recent Huffington Post news »

It's the ultimate soap story, complete with twists and turns: "All My Children" and "One Life to Live" were killed, left for dead with legions of fans calling for blood. Then, a ray of hope appeared in the form of Prospect Park, but that was quickly extinguished ... until now. "All My Children" and "One Life to Live" are back from the dead and have found a new home online.

"Most of us thought that both shows were dead in the water and the tradition was going down the tubes and nobody loved us anymore and we felt bad," Cady McCalin, who plays Dixie Cooney on "All My Children," told The Huffington Post at the premiere for the two soaps on Tuesday, April 23.

"All My Children" and "One Life to Live" return on Monday, April 29 with new half-hour episodes on iTunes and Hulu. It's a big change from the normal timeslots in the early afternoon, »

Is 'Teen Beach Movie' The Next 'HSM?'

12 March 2013 6:02 AM, PDT | Entertainment Tonight | See recent Entertainment Tonight news »

The Disney Channel has been trying to replicate the gargantuan success of High School Musical since the original came out in 2006 and launched the careers of Zac Efron, (and to a lesser degree) Ashley Tisdale, Vanessa Hudgens and Corbin Bleu.

Trailer - Zac Efron Wants To Win At Any Price

The network's latest great white (way) hope is musical Teen Beach Movie, which riffs on West Side Story as two dueling gangs (the surfers versus the bikers) vie for control of the choicest sandy spot.

Video - Vanessa Hudgens Gets Racy in Spring Breakers

Ross Lynch (of Austin & Ally) and Maia Mitchell play Brady and McKenzie, who are on Team Surfers, while Grace Phipps and Garrett Clayton play their star-crossed love interests who bop around on bikes. Anyone else getting major Efron vibes from Clayton?

Check out a Teen Beach teaser below!

Teen Beach Movie premieres July 19 at 8 p.m. on Disney »
