Rick Webber, was that who i think it is on Helenes boat? Ive commented on the possibility of Helene holding him captive and that an imposter had died years ago as a trick against Laura staged by Helene, and i hope im right…
Brenda is on the end next to Sonny. Bobbie is sandwiched between AJ and Heather. It’s a real oversight that neither Alan (Stuart Damon) or Audry (Rachel Ames) were included. BIG MISTAKE. Jax too actually. He was on for 18 years.
I want to know if next to Dante (Dominic Z) that is Emme Rylan already?
It looks like emme from what i can tell…as for those not included they might not have been avaiable at the time? but Audrey…who was there from almost the beginning should have been there right in the center.
Jason and Brooklyn….the REAL people. Not the characters. Jason Thompson (Patrick) and Brooklyn Silzer (Emma).
YOU need to get your head out of fantasy land and consider the real people behind the characters.
Jimh- I get that. And if that’s how you or anyone else would like to spend your hard earned money, G-d bless you. I personally don’t think it’ll ever be worth enough to make up for the money spent (tax and shipping too) to have it in your possession. These aren’t like Shakespeare’s signature, rare and extraordinarily valuable. They’re pictures that will forever be available to view online thanks to Michael Fairman and all the other sites who uploaded them.
My photo reply was just a reply…i hope you didnt take it the wrong way? i wasnt trying to sound like a smart mouth or something…i cant afford it myself right now. I feel a portion of the proceeds shouldve went to charity for aids research.
Oh no jimh, MY smart mouth reply was in response to whoever that was before me who told me I needed to get my eyes checked when they clearly were the one in the wrong. The nerve of some people!
To you, my comment was meant just as it read, no sarcasm or condescension or anything. It was sincere. I personally and honestly just do not understand why people would pay that much money for a photo- no signatures, it’s not lined with anything special, it’s just a money grabbing photo that goes straight to ABC’s tailored pockets. I do however think your idea of putting some money towards a good cause would have made much more sense and a clearer incentive than just “Get your 50th anniversary picture while it’s hot”. But alas, ABC prefers the free money going to them.

Will Britt pull a Faison and show up at the NB as Robin? I read a spoiler saying she was going to pull something and her mother did work 4 Faison. I have no problem with it, but im sure other Robin fans would be angry and upset if it wasnt the real Robin! In a way i hope it does happen. lol

Where’s the kids? When Kimberly McCullough played Robin she was always featured in the cast photo even at a young age. Emma and Josslyn are the future ladies of Port Charles. They could’ve been put in a
party dress sitting up front looking adorable with their tv families. Everyone looks fabulous.
Emma is up in front with Jason Thompson, who plays Patrick. Loved that she was included, and her placement. Youngest cast member to be included in the picture.

Pardon my post. Now I see little Brooklyn up on the couch. Why didn’t the actress who plays Josslyn get in the shot too? Just my opinion.
Tues. episode of Gh was full of surprises! Seeing Allan , Rick, Emily ,Ethan ,Brenda , Audrey & Dr. Hardy’s portrait! And most of all seeing Monica and Tracy hug. What a hoot that was ! It made me laugh! The expressions on their faces where priceless! Like Oh NOOOOOOOOOO do I have to!
Looks like there is another new actor in the younger set on General Hospital. Tristan Riggs is taking over the role of Elizabeth Webber’s (Rebecca Herbst) son, Aiden.
Previously, Enzo De Angelis played the part of Liz and Lucky’s (formerly Jonathan Jackson) son since 2021. Soap Opera Digest confirmed that Riggs is now firmly in the part.
The switch happened on today’s Thursday May 2nd episode in scenes. Recently, Aiden came out as gay to him mom after admitting his interest in one of his classmates.

As Riggs begins in the part, it looks like Aiden is being bullied at school. Elizabeth is trying to get to the bottom of things and made an appointment with school counselors to find out what’s going on, after seeing his book bag had pink paint on it.
Riggs has been acting since he was 7-year-0ld and has appeared on the TV series Walker, True Lies and Best Foot Forward to name a few.
So, what do you think of Tristan Riggs as the new Aiden? Do you hope Aiden’s story becomes more front and center? Comment below.
Juliet Donenfeld is the Temporary Recast as General Hospital’s Georgie
May 2, 2024
Those who saw the GH preview for today’s May 2nd episode were a bit confused when they saw a young actress sitting with Lois (Rena Sofer) and Violet (Jophielle Love). As it turns out, that young girl is a recast Georgie.
Juliet Donenfeld is stepping into the role temporarily replacing Lily Fisher. As viewers know, Georgie is the young daughter of Maxie (Kirsten Storms) and Spinelli (Bradford Anderson) named after Maxie’s sister, Georgie who passed away.
According to Soap Opera News, Fisher will be back soon in the part.
As for Donenfeld’s credits, she has appeared as JJ in the Netflix’s WWE series The Big Show Show, Better Call Saul, Good Girls, Station 19, and Sydney to the Max to name but a few.
In addition, Juliet became the youngest nominee for an Annie Award, gaining recognition for voicing the character of Sally Squirrel in the Animated TV/Broadcast Production of Pete the Cat.
Watch today’s GH teaser below, and let us know your thoughts about Juliet as a recast Georgie via the comment section below.

“Daytime television invites viewers into the private lives of characters, often bringing important issues like cancer screenings into living rooms and around water coolers. Soaps debuted the first cancer storyline in 1962 – years before the topic was discussed in the mainstream, and it left an indelible impact: a whole generation of women who scheduled a potentially life-saving Pap smear for the first time,” said Daytime Stands Up host Alan Locher. “For so many viewers, this brought the issue front and center,” added co-host Michael Fairman. “Today, it’s become almost impossible to avoid; but there is hope with cancer research, thanks to organizations like Stand Up To Cancer.”
SU2C Co-Founder Sue Schwartz, SU2C President and CEO Julian Adams, Ph.D., and SU2C Health Equity Committee Member Elizabeth Jaffee, M.D., will also participate to speak to the importance of early detection, exciting scientific breakthroughs, and the ongoing work yet to be done to make screenings and treatment equitable for all.
“This year, an estimated 2 million people in the U.S. will be diagnosed with cancer, presenting an opportunity for the public to stand with us and rise to the occasion,” said Adams. “We’re thankful to Alan Locher, Michael Fairman and our friends from the daytime television community, who will raise critical funding to honor those we’ve lost – and to propel new scientific breakthroughs for current and future patients. Everyone has a story, and we’re grateful to all of you for sharing yours.”
For over 15 years, SU2C has leveraged its relationship with the entertainment community – which includes more than 1,100 celebrity ambassadors – to generate public donations, increase awareness and fund cutting-edge cancer research. SU2C research has contributed to the development of more than 10 scientific breakthroughs that have significantly impacted the field and provided new treatment options for breast, colorectal, lung, melanoma, pancreatic, pediatric and prostate cancers.

In support of the event, SU2C will also be launching a 10-day eBay silent auction, from May 16 through 26, for fans to bid on items, including a meet-and-greet experience with the cast of NBC’s Days of Our Lives; an autographed script from the cast of Young and Restless and signed merchandise from the Bold and Beautiful cast; a 1:1 video call with General Hospital’s Cynthia Watros, Maura West and Laura Wright, and with daytime legends Robert Newman, Vincent Irizarry, Colleen Zenk, and more. Full details will be shared the evening of May 16, on Stand Up To Cancer’s website.
Are you looking forward to this very special one-night only virtual event to help benefit cancer research and shed light on the stories, performances and lives of the people we love and have loved in daytime TV? Comment below.
Beautiful photo! Hey, didnt i just suggest selling copies of that last cast photo…anyway this one is sooooo much better!
Will the ones from the first decade be in black and white or in color?
Is that our new Lulu next to Dante?
yep, that looks like the new lulu next to dante. who is the girl sitting next to Sonny? And who is the lady standing between Felix and Bobbie? And where the heck is Frisco?
Is that Kate or Connie…the blonde next to Sonny? lol
from left to right:
back row – Rafe, Molly, Milo, Shawn, Nik, Max, and Britt
third row – Sabrina, Felix, (?), Bobbie, AJ, Olivia, Mac, Felicia, Liz, Dante, Lulu, Ellie, Michael, Epiphany
second row – (?), Sonny, Kate/Connie, Monica, Maxie, and Spinelli
front row – Carly, Tracy, Emma, Patrick, Sam, Alexis, Laura, Scott, Anna, Luke, Lucy and of course… Luke in his classic stand out position 🙂
Your third row ? is Heather Webber, and your second row ? is Brenda.
Jules got the answers right…
Just ordered mine!
There are quite a few people missing from that photo that should of been included. Felicia, Frisco, Robin, Audrey, Rick Webber, Jax, Kevin, Bobbie, Robert Scorpio, Holly etc.
Oops scratch Bobbie – its hard to tell who is in it but I see Bobbie now but the others I mentioned are not there
Now this looks more like a cast photo then the previous one they put out, how beautiful I love it.
Lynn Herring looks amazing! Great photo. Everyone looks fabulous. Congratulations GH!!
They all look classy…and i love Lynne showing some leg in a revealing but appropriate way!
Nancy Lee Grahn looks hot in red and of course Tony Geary always stands out! Love the photo.
Rick Webber, was that who i think it is on Helenes boat? Ive commented on the possibility of Helene holding him captive and that an imposter had died years ago as a trick against Laura staged by Helene, and i hope im right…
IM WRONG! Rick and Alan are ghosts along with Emily but it still was great to see them again.
Where is Alan, Rick, Jax, Brenda, Bobbie and Audry? They all appeared on the show today.
Brenda is on the end next to Sonny. Bobbie is sandwiched between AJ and Heather. It’s a real oversight that neither Alan (Stuart Damon) or Audry (Rachel Ames) were included. BIG MISTAKE. Jax too actually. He was on for 18 years.
I want to know if next to Dante (Dominic Z) that is Emme Rylan already?
It looks like emme from what i can tell…as for those not included they might not have been avaiable at the time? but Audrey…who was there from almost the beginning should have been there right in the center.
The actors who played those characters might not been available when the photo was taken but it would be nice if everyone could have been there.
Ordered mine as soon as I found out they were on sale, did not want to miss out on this like I missed out on OLTL and AMC cast photos.
People would pay real money for this??? Not I.
I do love Brooklyn and Jason dead center in the front together though.
The photo is considered a collectors item and many people collect things based on shows and movies that they like.
FYI Jason is not part of this group photo – you need your eyes checked and neither is Brooklyn
OY! bmonika! Honey.
Jason and Brooklyn….the REAL people. Not the characters. Jason Thompson (Patrick) and Brooklyn Silzer (Emma).
YOU need to get your head out of fantasy land and consider the real people behind the characters.
Jimh- I get that. And if that’s how you or anyone else would like to spend your hard earned money, G-d bless you.
