After being spotted on the show Hunter opposite Fred Dryer, Borlenghi was tracked down by execs and offered the role that brought him to national attention, playing Brian Bodine on All My Children in the early 1990s. His character was the main romantic interest of Hayley Vaughan, played by Kelly Ripa, until he quit the show in 1993 in favor of doing comedy TV. However, later in 1996, he did make a brief return to stir things up between Hayley and new boyfriend Mateo (Mark Consuelos).
Borlenghi also played Ziggy Deadmarsh on CBS soap opera The Bold and the Beautiful in 2002, and Mayor Anthony Marino on NBC Days of Our Lives.
