Day 7 - Who was your favorite 90s Disney Channel actor/actress?

Actor:Honorable mentions: Zachary Ansley (The Journey of Natty Gann, Cowboys Don't Cry, Miracle on Interstate 880, Road to Avonlea), Zbych Trofimiuk (Spellbinder), Jeffrey Walker (Sky Trackers, Ocean Girl, Snowy River: The McGregor Saga, The Wayne Manifesto, Thunderstone), David Hoflin (Ocean Girl, The Lost World, Swimming Upstream), Zachary Bennett (All I Wanna Do, Road to Avonlea, By Way of the Stars, Shattered City: The Halifax Explosion), Eric Lively (Armed and Innocent, So Weird, A Mother's Fight for Justice, The Pact, Deep Winter, 24: The Redemption).

The actor from the Disney Channel that I would consider my favorite is one that continues to be my favorite, and with every role, continues to amaze me with his ability to portray a character.  Ben Foster (Flash Forward, The Laramie Project, Bang Bang, You're Dead, 3:10 to Yuma, The Messenger, Pandorum, The Mechanic) is one of the most prolific actors I've ever seen.  While he has done roles I didn't like, the were roles I would not have liked, no matter who was portraying them.  If those characters had any redeeming quality, it would be that they were portrayed by Ben Foster.

Actress:
Honorable mentions: Christy Carlson Romano (Kim Possible, Even Stevens, Looking for an Echo), Lindy Booth (The Famous Jett Jackson, October Road, The Philanthropist), Courtnee Draper (The Jersey, The Thirteenth Year, Veronica Mars), Hilary Duff (Lizzie McGuire, Raise Your Voice, Beauty & the Briefcase, American Dreams, Gossip Girl), Gema Zamprogna (Road to Avonlea, By Way of the Stars, The Challengers), Sarah Polley (Road to Avonlea, White Lies, Ramona), Marzena Godecki (Ocean Girl), Gosia Piotrowska (Spellbinder), Jewel Staite (Flash Forward, Da Vinci's Inquest, Higher Ground, Firefly, Serenity, Stargate: Atlantis, Cheats).

Of all the actresses that I can think of that graced the screen during the Disney Channel's 1990s run, my absolute favorite has to be Emmy Rossum (Genius, Mystic River, The Day After Tomorrow, Poseidon, The Phantom of the Opera).  For the sake of my sanity, we will forget that the movie Dare was ever even filmed.
