GH Star Nancy Lee Grahn Recalls Her Alien Days With Tristan Rogers

While Alexis Davis and Robert Scorpio have barely interacted on General Hospital, their portrayers, Nancy Lee Grahn and Tristan Rogers, appeared together in an episode of a famous sci-fi series — and the actress shared some fun images from her days as a big-headed alien.

That episode, The War Prayer, of Babylon 5 in question, first aired on March 9, 1994. Grahn was playing Shaal Mayan while Rogers played Malcolm Biggs — a character probably named as a nod to regular cast member Richard Biggs, who played Dr. Stephen Franklin and is also known to fans of Days of our Lives as Marcus Hunter — father to Jada Hunter played by newcomer Elia Cantu.

Daytime Emmy winner Grahn shared posted a picture of herself with Rogers on Instagram, writing, “Back in the day when [Tristan Rogers] and I were dating. I was going through my alien phase & he was into that so it worked for awhile. But eventually my head just got too big for him and he dumped me.” Her tongue-in-cheek post confused many of those commenting.

The reason for her look back in time was explained on her official Twitter account. “Since #Babylon5 is trending,” she said, “I thought I’d show you my very large bald head. That was considered super hot on the planet I came from. I’m sure the fact that my ears are attached to my neck is a sign of something awesome too… selnecktive hearing. (Comiconcomedy) enjoy the chk.”

It sure would be fun to see Alexis and Robert start a flirtation in Port Charles. Even with the alien makeup, it’s easy to see a spark could easily turn into a flame for these two seasoned pros. Enjoy the images from Nancy Lee Grahn on her sci-fi past with the posts below.
