- Delete for failing WP:NACTOR. Most of his acting credits are minor and in little-seen productions, the one semi-exception being in Green Lantern. He was in four episodes of Devious Maids and eight in Dreamsville, but the latter has no article here and no votes in IMDb, despite apparently airing in 2017. (What's up with that? Was it all just a dream?) Also, no press coverage I could find, so WP:GNG and WP:BIO also apply. Clarityfiend (talk) 21:45, 26 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- Reply to Clarityfiend . OK, so many of his leading and co-starring roles have been in B grade films. Then again B grade films have a following in a different scene from the main stream. The David A. Prior film White Fury which he had the man role in has a cult following and so does another. Many of his roles have been solid (And the Houston Press agrees) He also had a major supporting role in the Amir Valinia directed film Flashes aka Flashes (Alternate Realities) which was released in 2014. He has had solid and prominent roles in 1988. As Victor in the TV show Webster and as Randy Cheers, a supporting role as Simkins in The Adventures of Brisco County, Jr. etc. He also had a reoccurring role in the soap opera The Young and the Restless. This was recognized by the Reno Gazette-Journal when he appeared at an event with Dean Cain and Creedence Clearwater Revival members Stu Cook and Clifford. See Reno Gazette-Journal, September 17, 1995 - page 16. His star status was also recognized by Soap Opera Digest, May 16, 1989. I guess the impact he made in Young & the Restless led to his being on the cover of the August 1989 issue of Playgirl magazine. He also appeared again in May 2nd 1985 and August 3rd 1989. From 1984, 19 or 20 TV shows and 38 movies, regardless if some have been minor, there's a significant amount of solid roles Easy to see he is notable!

- Quote: The Houston Press article mentions him once in passing ......... Actually the Houston Press article is about him! See here
- Quote . He's not mentioned at all in Webster ........ According to TV Guide, he co-starred in the "Our Song" episode that aired on February 20, 1987. Motown group The Four Tops also co-starred. see here
- Quote: Cheers ........ Well, TV Guide says that he co-starred in the "To All the Girls I've Loved Before" episode of the show, playing the part of Randy. See here
The same can be said for The Adventures of Brisco County, Jr.
Well, as for Young and the Restless, what can I say??? See the Reno Gazette-Journal, September 17, 1995 - page 16
and the Soap Opera Digest May 16, 1989.
You may also want to know that he had a reoccurring role as Eddie Reed on Days of our Lives. Karl Twist (talk) 11:49, 30 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- His role in Days of Our Lives - Around 1989 / 1990, Anderson had a reoccurring role in the show, playing Eddie Reed. He stayed in it until his character was killed off. It says this in the Roswell Daily Record, issue date, December 8, 1989 Page 59. See article: SOAP REPORT Cliche Watch Also CultureMap Houston, issue date, 7.6.10 says he was in the show. See article By Cynthia Neely Around that time he appeared as the bandaged-up Duke Lavery in General Hospital. There was speculation (as indicated by an article in the Bluefield Daily Telegraph ) that Anderson could possibly carry on in the role as Lavery as Ian Buchanan who played Lavery had left the show. See Bluefield Daily Telegraph, Friday, December 08, 1989 - Article: SOAP SCOOP Plastic surgery plots don’t cut it on soaps Page 76
