TV-series (CBS), 1978-91

Sorbo's first dramatic part on TV was on the prime-time 'soap of soaps' - the saga of the Ewing Family in 1983.
|
| On the Hercules/Xena Convention (Pasadena, Jan.2000) Kevin gave the audience his performance as a Camp Counsellor, reenacting his first professional line on TV. |
|
Kevin Sorbo: My first speaking part. -- Marilyn: Do you remember it? -- KS: Probably not. It was a blink. It was very quick. We played camp counsellors at a camp for children that were like not problem children but just had, you know, whatever they had. And I had like one line knocking on the door and go, 'Peter, the camp counsellor wants to see you.' (13.01.03 Cityline, Canada TV) |
Santa Barbara
TV-series (NBC), 1984-92
|
In this Dobson's soap about family of the Santa Barbara's wealthy and famous oil tycoon C.C.Capwell, Kevin played delivery man in Gina's fantasy. |
| In mid 1987 he returned from Australia to Los Angeles. Kevin Sorbo: "I went back to Hollywood and got a part in Santa Barbara." (16.10.96 - Glitter #2). |
| "Up and coming actor Kevin Sorbo has done it all. This avid beach goer has appeared on the soap "Santa Barbara"..." (Summer 1987 International Male Catalog) |
|
There is another info -
about him playing a Swede named Lars Stedwell (a student dancer ?) which
seems to be the same character as above. If you have a conception, be
so kind, let me know.

Divorce Court
|
A former USA Network
(now syndicated) reality-based courtroom show. That days the cases involved
actors instead of real couples.
|
| Kevin Sorbo: "I did a 'Divorce Court'. I played an actor called the Tennessee Stud. An ex-porno star. (Laughs) The women owned a company that sold edible underwear, and her husband caught her sampling the underwear - while I was wearing it. I put on this Tennessee accent that was really horrific. I can't believe I am telling you this." (1.02.97 TVGuide) |
TV-series (HBO), 1984-91, episode 5.5 "...The Clock Runs Out"
2.11.88 on the air
|
Kevin Sorbo: "After the part in 'Santa Barbara', I had recurring roles in the HBO sitcom 'First And Ten'." (16.10.96 - Glitter #2) Unfortunately, there is absolutely no info about this Kevin's role (or roles?). In whole it was an adult-oriented comedy about a sexy socialite Diane (Delta Burke) who finds herself the owner of the tenth-rate football team ... Football, women & the guys who love them both. [In football 'first and ten' means first try to gain ten yards.] |
