Victor Newman is a fictional character from the American CBS soap opera "The Young and the Restless".
 He has been portrayed by Eric Braeden since 1980.

 However, after Bell saw Braeden's performance, he decided to sign the actor onto a contract.
 Braeden was hesitant to work on a soap opera, but eventually signed a contract, and has remained on the series as a regular cast member for a total of thirty-seven years.
 The character is widely described as ruthless, and while loving to those he holds dear, is considered a villain.
 Over the years, he has also been the center of several controversial plots and relationships.

John Black is a fictional character from "Days of Our Lives", an American soap opera on the NBC network.
 He has been played by actor Drake Hogestyn since 1986, with a break in between from January 2009 to September 2011.
 John was created by script writers Sheri Anderson, Thom Racina and Leah Laiman as The Pawn in 1985 and introduced by executive producers Betty Corday and Al Rabin.
 John becomes one of "Days of Our Lives' " most popular characters when he is revealed to be the presumed dead Roman Brady (Wayne Northrop) with plastic surgery and amnesia.
 However, Northrop's return in 1991 led to Hogestyn's Roman being retconned into the entirely separate character of John Black, which also establishes the supercouple pairing of John and Marlena, due to John's affair with Roman's wife, Marlena Evans (Deidre Hall).
 During the time in which he believes he is Roman, John picks up the mantle of Roman's feud with the notorious international criminal Stefano DiMera (Joseph Mascolo).
 John and Stefano's feud is central to the character's history as Stefano is partly responsible for John's memory loss.
 Their lives are further intertwined in 2008 when the two are falsely led to believe they are half brothers—a story that was later disproved.
 Hogestyn's portrayal has made him one of daytime's most popular and recognizable stars.
 Hogestyn was attributed with helping the series out of its ratings slump in the 1980s.
 He was often featured in soap opera magazines such as "Soap Opera Digest" and "Soap Opera Weekly".

 Phil is one of the major introductions made by executive producer Michael Ferguson, who wanted to bring in some macho, male leads.
 Phil and his brother Grant became popularly known as the Mitchell brothers in the British media with Phil initially portrayed as the more level-headed of the two thugs.
 Storylines featuring the Mitchell family dominated the soap opera throughout the 1990s, with Phil becoming a popular and long-running male protagonist into the 2000s and the 2010s.
 McFadden temporarily left the series in late 2003 then returned in March 2005 for a short stint, before making a permanent return in October 2005.
