For General Hospital’s 50th Anniversary, executive producer Frank Valentini is bringing back to the series many long time fan favorites, and for Kristina Wagner (Felicia) that put her back working on set with her ex-husband and former long time scene partner Jack Wagner (Frisco)!

In a new interview with Access Hollywood, Kristina reveals she was somewhat hesitant when Jack Wagner called to let her know he had been asked back to the show. Admitting she was a bit nervous during their initial scenes, Kristina relates that it is actually working out quite well!

As to who holds the key to Felicia’s heart?  The million dollar question seems to indicate that unless Mac (John J. York) were to do something so terrible, why would Felicia run into the arms of Frisco?  And, since Mac has been rock solid, why would she go back to the MIA super spy?

In addition, Wagner talks about her documentary film, and how it was love of at first sight when Jack and her met at a GH photo shoot!  Watch Kristina on Access Hollywood after the jump? Then let us know who do you want Felicia to end up with? Frisco or Mac?

I put money on frisco jones

Really love Kristina and Jack its great seeing. Exes. Being professional and not letting petty things get in the way and they do it in the spotlight of many. I’m stuck I love Mac but Frisco and Felecia are the ones I witnessed and hooked me on the show

i felicia is on gh to stay then she should choose mac but if this is short for felicia then she should choose frisco & they can both leave port charlles together……………….

The only way i see Felicia turning to Frisco is perhaps he might have some life threating illness and thats why he came back to see Felicia and Maxie. But somehow i feel Dr. Britch will warn Mac that Frisco is after Felicia, or find a way to make him disappear again after he threaten her for blackmailing Maxi. Maxi could blackmail the evil doctor with breach of dr./patient confidentiality. Why is Britch not worried about that? Also could she be related to Lisa Niles because the camera did briefly show her look when Patrick mentioned Lisas name.

Is Felicia back temporarily like some of the other vets? If so Felicia might rekindle old feelings for Frisco and run off with him. But how would Maxi react if both parents abandon her again? What if Felicia runs off with Frisco, realizes her mistake and returns to PC? Would Mac take her back or be done with her? I hope both Jack and Kristina stay with GH. The chemistry is still there but the characters dont have to be together. I enjoy seeing both of them.

I love general hospital it,s my number 1# show I THINK Frisco and felica should stay Together forever , it was love at first sight ! and both of them stay on G.H.

Outside of TMZ, I don’t think I have ever seen a more rude interview. Asking her if feelings had come back for her ex? Pressing the subject when she was clearly uncomfortable. That was just gross.

that’s how I felt when I watched that. Highly insensitve and rude indeed. I mean what if they have SO’s watching this? How would they feel? Stupid interview.

I third. Sensitivity was apparently not in their job description.

Very insensitive I agree. Even watching the scenes of Frisco saying certain regrets to her, how can it not be real at the same time? I love seeing them together, but I wonder at what cost to Kristina…

You’re right Jazzie. Not sure what happened btwn Jack & Kristina & why they divorced but I’m sure she doesn’t want to revisit those scenes again or tasteless hosts.

How stupidely awkward for these hosts to ask about how she fell in love with JW.
Kristina looks amazing and it’s a no-brainer that Frisco & Felicia belong together!

she’s awesome, wish they would give her more to do like they’ve done with Lynn Herring. Hopefully she will get a mini storyline arc down the line.

I think she will stay with Mac. After all her stay on GH is only temporary

I can see her hesitation. Imagine if they put these characters back together and they have to do love scenes together. Would anybody enjoy doing this with an Ex-Husband? I think not! So for their sake, I hope the writers keep her with Mac. Plus, Friscos character has been a horrible Husband and Father over the years so why besides hormones would Felicia even consider hooking up with him again? Unless he is retired I see no advantage to this because he will just run off again.

Frisco said he was sorry and he admits his mistakes , He wants to be a father again !!!!!!!! he,s got my vote I was watching them that day they first met , Felica was looking for the Atzec treasure and frisco was a cop !

Ummmm, I wasn’t talking about there characters here. I was talking about how these two actors were once married in real life and it didn’t end well.

Enjoying the idea of the triangle for now, but Felicia and Mac make a cute couple.

I am hoping she stays with Mac in the end… but wouldn’t mind seeing Frisco woo her a bit! Let’s hope she is smarter this go around… unless of course he has truly changed and he’s back for good and he invests in his relationship with Maxie… maybe then… but Mac is her rock and he deserves better!

After seeing the show today, Kristina is STILL in the top 10 percentile of beautiful women on the planet-but I’ve ALWAYS found her voice unnerving. As for Mac, he’s about to get kicked to the curb, and he knows it

I hope not… come on Big Mac…. it’s super hero time… don the Man UP… and unleash your “pherormones…”

Is Big Mac gonna Man Up!

I think so, I hope so, he’d better…. Felicia’s on the line… and Frisco’s New man in town w/swag almost has me convinced…

Kudos! to the writing… it would appear that Mac is on the side-lines… watching Frisco horn in on Felicia… and they’re certainly hinting at that… and it’s simmering with sensuals…

Mac is going to combust… grow a pair…. LOL… and Love his wife…

i love how this is going so far…

Mac will never come close to having Frisco’s charisma and chemistry with Felicia. He needs to find a woman elsewhere..

Frisco and Felicia just look at each other and they connect. I like Mac just not with Felicia. Felicia belongs with Frisco and Mac needs to realize that and step aside like he did before.

sad but true.

Mac is a great guy ! you are right Frisco and felica have it hot and heavy chemistry going!

I am enjoying the triangle …but I hope that Mac and Felicia stay together ….

Such an awkward situation for the poor lady. I hope her and Jack Wagner/Frisco don’t get together on the show, they’re divorced after many years and for the sake of their private lives and children no one should try pushing situations that are inappropriate for them on them.

I agree totally!

I hope the writers do go frisco and felicia together. Do not like the Mac is boring. Frisco and Felicia are destined to be together.

I Love Frisco and Felcia Jones together ! That,s the way it should be . I have been watching them since the 80,s Mac is a great guy he will find some one , and he will still be in the family he is maxies uncle !

I am with Lisa J and Phyllis. These people who want theses two characters back together because of their own obsession, regardless of how it well affect the real life counterparts is sick. Yes, they get along well in real life, but that does not mean they should be paired up again. My guess is that the emotional scenes they have already done are hard enough, but then throw love scenes or kissing in on top of that? No way that is going to happen.

i love frisco and felicia they belong together on or off screen

i agree,

frisco and felicia all the way

I love Frisco and Felicia and yes, they belong together on GH and I wish they’d work things out in real life too. He’s already left GH, I hope they write him back on. I hated the way they ended things. They made Frisco out to be a dead beat dad again! Sorry but Mac’s a nice guy but he’s BORING!!!!

Nancy Lee Grahn’s Star-Studded ALS Fundraiser Reveals “I’ll Be There” Video Featuring Soap Opera Notables

Talk about your impressive line-up! It’s a soap fans dream and for a great cause. General Hospital’s Nancy Lee Grahn (Alexis Davis) is prepping her one-night only ALS fundraiser which will feature many of her friends and co-stars.

The benefit is set for May 4th in Glendale, California. Slated to participate are Genie Francis, Jane Elliot, Peter Bergman, Maurice Benard, Eileen Davidson, Thorsten Kaye, Michelle Stafford, Stephen Nichols, Rena Sofer, Jason Thompson, Kelly Monaco, Melissa Claire Egan, Maura West, Kristina Wagner, Gregory Harrison, Trevor St. John, Kate Mansi, Kirsten Storms, Cynthia Watros, and many others.

On Wednesday, Grahn took to her social media and released an “I’ll be there” video shout-out featuring, Monaco, Elliot, Bergman, Bernard, West, Harrison, St. John and more. In a touching and important moment in the new video, Michelle Strogny, who is battling ALS, is featured.

Previously, in speaking with Soap Opera Digest on the impetus of the event, Grahn recalled, “I was actually doing Zoom events during Covid and I met this woman that I just fell in love with, Michelle Strojny. At the time, Michelle had been living with ALS for four years. Now, it’s five years. She is a mom of a teenage son, she has the most wonderful husband, and she has been dealing with this [disease] for quite a while. And obviously, there isn’t a cure yet. It’s not survivable yet. But as she says, it’s not incurable. Nothing is; it’s underfunded. But anyway, I just really dug this woman. She is so grounded and filled with grace, and she spends all of her time working to raise money for the cause. We did a fundraiser for her last year and then I thought, ‘You know what? The soaps don’t ever get together to do something for charity.’ Collectively, we have this amazing community and we don’t collectively use it for a good cause, and I think it’s such an easy thing for us to do and we could potentially really make a difference.”

As GH viewers know, Gregory Harrison is playing the character of Gregory Chase, who is also battling ALS in a touching storyline that is currently playing out shedding a light on this disease.

‘General Hospital’ Writer Shannon Peace Let Go, and Shares on Sprina: “One of My Only Regrets is to Not Have the Opportunity to Develop That ‘Ship’ Further”

As General Hospital’s new head writing team of Elizabeth Korte and Patrick Mulcahy gets off the ground and running, there are still changes a foot on the writing team.

Now comes word via breakdown writer Shannon Peace that she is no longer on contract with the long-running ABC soap heading into its 61st season. Peace shared a heartfelt message on her Instagram, thanking the fans, and the show for the opportunity and the importance of diversity in the writers room.

Peace began, “After almost 3 years on staff and 106 episodes penned, I am no longer on contract with General Hospital. Writing for this country’s longest running television serial drama has been an education of epic proportions; I will forever be grateful that I earned my WGA card on a daytime fixture that holds memories for so many.” (Peace pictured below with GH EP Frank Valentini and script writer, Charlotte Gibson from about ten months ago).

Shannon added “Even more importantly, as the sole Black breakdown writer (and only POC in the writers room) during my tenure, I pushed for vital interactions and discussions that prioritized inclusion, visibility, and representation”

The writer pointed to the example of vital interaction when in story, “Stella and Portia’s frank July 2022 conversation about the role race played in Esme’s framing of Trina is just one example of the impact I’m gratified to have had.”

Acknowledging former GH co-head writers was also part of Peace’s farewell expressing, “Appreciation to my former bosses, Chris Van Etten and Dan O’Connor – not only taking a chance on me, but for valuing my opinion and championing my voice.”

Many GH fans know that Peace was key to the development of the love story between Trina Robinson and Spencer Cassadine as played by Tabyana Ali and Nicholas Chavez. Shannon gave a special shout-out to ‘Sprina’ fans, “I also want to thank fans who were supportive of my work, especially the recognition of my love for ‘Sprina’. One of my only regrets is not having to develop that ‘ship’ further.”

She concludes her statement with,”In the aftermath of a historic writer’s strike that shed new light on the troubling ways writers are regarded in daytime, my sincere hope is that General Hospital recommits to valuing staff writer efforts and input, with a more intentional focus on diverse viewpoints — and thrives for another 60 years.”

Accompanying her post, Shannon added, “Thank you all for the love and support these last few years. I hope GH fans get all they hope for and more!”

So, what do you think about GH not renewing Shannon’s contract? Will there be more continued changes afoot? What do you think is the future of ‘Sprina’ anyway at this point as viewers wait to see if Nicholas Chavez officially returns to the show?  Comment below.

GENERAL HOSPITAL: Jason Learns Britt Died and Tells Anna He Has Been Working For Cates Since November 2021

On the Tuesday, March 26th of General Hospital, Anna (Finola Hughes) and the viewers learn about where Jason (Steve Burton) has been for over two and half years. However, Jason gets some news of his own.

Anna is visiting Jason at the PCPD interrogation room. She asks him if he shot Dante (Dominic Zamprogna), which he flatly denies. Anna believes him, but she tells Jason it doesn’t matter, because video footage shows him on the roof at the time of the shooting

When talk turns to Jason not willing to speak without his lawyer present, Anna can’t grasp why Jason would instead spend an hour alone talking with John Cates (Adam J. Harrington).

It is then that Anna brings up that John went by “Jagger” and that the two of them knew each other in high school. Jason doesn’t recall much of his time in high school following his brain injury, but then he gets furious realizing John knew about “Jason’s” past. That is when Jason slams the table and tells Anna, “I’ve been working for John Cates since November 2021.”

Next, Jason explains further that he has been working as an informant for the FBI. Anna wants to know how this came about and he tells her that after the tunnel collapsed, and he couldn’t make it to Britt (Kelly Thiebaud)… all of a sudden he sees Anna’s face drop.  Anna is the first person to tell him that Britt died and was murdered. She tells Jason the killer is in custody, but he continues to be shocked, overwhelmed with tears welling up in his eyes. Realizing he has to pivot to save his life, Jason continues telling Anna how he wound up working with John.

Jason explains that after the tunnel collapse in Greece, FBI agents grabbed him and placed him under arrest and took him to Quantico where he met John. At Quantico, John played a recording of RICO violations and offered Jason a deal if he agreed to be an informant against Pikeman, the illegal arms dealer.

Anna hears from Jason that he thinks Pikeman is selling illegal arms to anyone flagged by the NSA but has ties to the WSB which they needed a civilian to infiltrate their organization as a military soldier, a mercenary.

Jason tells Anna he was a part of the team brought into eliminate Sonny (Maurice Benard). Every time an attempt was made on Sonny’s life over the last two years, a different team was sent to do the job. Anna gets furious when she learns that John told Jason his job was to kill Sonny and she was with John at the warehouse that night. Jason ensured the sniper missed Sonny and left the rifle behind. However, they were supposed to meet an extraction team. Before he was shot, Dante saw it was Jason on the roof and when he turned around with his hands over his head, Dante was shot by the other guy. Jason says if Dante dies, he’ll be charged with capital murder and then will be useless to the FBI.

Meanwhile, John visits Bobbie’s and runs into Carly (Laura Wright). She learns Jason is in custody and is going to head to the PCPD. Before she does, Carly has some words with Cates when she learns not only does John have a vendetta against Sonny, but Jason too.  Carly tells John he should recuse himself from the case.

So, what did you think about the moment when Jason learned Britt died? What do you think of Jason’s return storyline thus far and what we learned about Jagger/Jason and more? Comment below. But first, check out a moment from today’s GH with Jason and Anna.
