Joseph Riley Buchanan (born Joseph Francis Riley, Jr., known as Joey Buchanan)[1] is a fictional character on ABC's daytime drama One Life to Live.

Casting

The role was portrayed by child actors Ryan Morris from 1982 to 1983 and John Paul Learn from 1983 to 1990. Chris McKenna played a teenaged Joey from 1990 to 1993, followed by Nathan Fillion as an adult from April 25, 1994 to February 14, 1997.[2] Don Jeffcoat stepped into the role from October 17, 1997[3] to January 19, 2001,[4] and was succeeded by Bruce Michael Hall in 2003 and 2004. Fillion returned briefly in August 2007 for One Life to Live's 9,999th and 10,000th episodes.[5][6][7]. On October 5, 2010, it was announced that newcomer Josh Kelly would take over the role of Joey. Two days later it was announced that former As the World Turns actor Tom Degnan would instead step into the role, with Kelly remaining in another capacity. Degnan debuted on November 24, 2010.[8]

Storylines

The early years

Joey is born to Viki Lord Riley soon after the death of his father Joe Riley in 1980. When Viki later marries Clint Buchanan in 1982, Clint adopts Joey and his older brother, Kevin Lord Riley.

Love and loss

In 1994 an adult Joey secretly romances his mother's nemesis Dorian Lord. Though initially motivated by revenge against Viki, Dorian comes to love Joey; Viki is outraged when she finds out.[9] During a recurrence of her dissociative identity disorder, one of Viki's alternate personalities, Jean Randolph, holds Dorian hostage in a secret room beneath Llanfair in 1995.[10] One of the conditions of her release is to end the relationship with Joey,[11] which she does.[12]

Joey later becomes involved with Dorian's niece, Kelly Cramer. Ultimately, Kelly leaves him for his brother Kevin.

In 2003 Joey returns to Llanview, having become a pastor in his absence. He soon marries Jennifer Rappaport, but her struggle to fit into her new role as a pastor's wife and her feelings for Rex Balsom destroy the marriage. Joey leaves town for London in January 2004. For two weeks that May, Joey returns while Viki undergoes heart transplant surgery.

Joey returns for two days in August 2007, along with brothers Cord Roberts and Kevin, for the funeral of his adopted grandfather, Asa Buchanan. He and Dorian briefly discuss their past relationship, and the fact that they both still think of each other.[6][7]

2010 Return

Joey returns to Llanview for Thanksgiving in 2010. He returns home to welcome arms and brings with his a woman named Aubrey Wentworth, the pair inform everyone that they are engaged. This comes a surprise to Kelly who had just recently come to the conclusion that she was still in love with Joey.
