Fantastic news for fans of One Life to Live and General Hospital! It was announced exclusively today through TV Line that Roger Howarth (Todd Manning) has been put on on a contract at General Hospital and will be sticking around Port Charles!
Howarth was originally scheduled and taped just a handful of episodes, but Todd will continue on this spring as he escalates his vendetta against Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard) and his clan for killing his granddaughter, Hope and destroying his daughter, Starr’s life! Benardrecently told Soap Opera Digest that he has loved working with Roger right from the very beginning and that they clicked well.
So that means that three out of the four One Lifers: Howarth, Kristen Alderson (Starr) and Michael Easton (John) are on contract, and hopefully it will just be a matter of time before Kassie DePaiva (Blair) receives some good news as well. Fingers-crossed!
Let us know your thoughts on having Todd Manning a permanent fixture in Port Chuck! But, how is he going to continue to beat the wrap for supposedly “killing” Victor Jr back in Llanview?

In the Daytime Drama series categories, CBS’ The Bold and the Beautiful and The Young and the Restless each scored 12 nominations more than any other show. Leading the acting nominations was B&B, who landed 7 performers in the various categories, a first in its 37-year history.

Congrats RH:) I smell a triangle w/Blair and Carly……
I am watching ABC, but ONLY at 3:00….GH, Go Kassie,Roger,Kristen, and Michael Easton….LOVE IT…I am a faithful viewer of General Hospital as of NOW, missing OLTL and everyone from the show though..
KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK, hope the ratings go up up up…..
LOVE ROBIN
PS I used to watch GH when Holly, Luke,and Laura,Robin,and Robert Scorpio were on and Finola Hughes, She is great, also love Mac(John York), I am glad they are bringing back the vets also…
Yeah, I feel similar. I started watching soaps when i was 13 yrs old. Been hooked ever since.
Next week is Robin’s funeral, FINALLY!!! I hope it’s a memorable tribute, standout for such a important character. Robert better be there instead of chasing a lie!!! I think Luke should’ve used Emma to tug on Robert’s hearstrings so he wouldn’t jump & not Ethan. I mean it’s a lie and he’s a grown man. That would’ve made more sense. But I hope the funeral is outstanding.
Hope they don’t cancel GH. I live in NYC and had the 4:00 p.m. time slot. I don’t see why Katie Couric can’t take that spot. 4:00 to 7:00 pm is a lot of news on a daily basis.
Oprah had the 4:00 time slot, why can’t Katie Couric’s show go there?
Ya its all great! Glad there on GH MISS OLTL!
they did look interesting while they were talking,he should only be with her if blair and todd are broken up for the millionth time. I agree katie can take the 4 oclock spot but here in florida ellen is on at 4,shes not going anywhere,at least I dont think so.I dont watch any talk shows ,but one thing is sure there is room for our general hospital,Isnt it getting interesting again?I love it and Im very happy with the writing.
McBain’s Nostrils Came to Port Charles!!
Now what? Are we going to Landview tomorrow for the trial or staying in Pt Chuckles for the funeral?
I hope they put Finola Hughes on contract, that’s who I would like to stick around.
Me too!
Me too!!!! Finola and Tristan Rogers. They are VETS of the show
What does Finola and Tristan have to do with the question he asked about how you feel about Roger Howarth sticking around?
Well, usually when someone is put on contract that’s an indicator that the show wants you to stick around, it means they want to secure your services so they can tell a storyline. So to answer your question , which should be obvious, I prefer they have Finola Hughes stick around, then offer roger or now most likely kassie a contract to stick around. In my book she has more to offer then they do, I’m not saying I’m not enjoying their visit, it just contradicts what FV said he wouldnt do so quickly, which was turn GH into OLTL 2.0 .
I am soooo excited. I was hoping for this. Now that Starr has lost her child she will need family to support her. Plus, if they do hook up Starr and Michael, how fun will that be. Because you know Todd won’t like Michael as he is Sonny’s son……LOL
YA thats a plan!
a plan that I like to.
That is what I plead for everyday. Now they cannot cancel my last remaining show. Please ABC don’t do the cancellation thing again. You will have the viewers you need.
Woo hoo! I love this news. I think Roger will be a great addition to the cast, and I love the possible/probable tension and drama that can only come from Todd’s presence. Good on you, GH!
im excited myself!!!
I am so relieved that Howarth is on Contract.I was surprised actually and let’s keep working to keep GH on the air.Todd is my favorite all time villan and Roger does such a n amazing job with the character.
I am so excited about this news! Now I just wish they would change the timeslot to 2 pm. 3 pm is not a good time for me. I am losing soapnet next month so will have to watch online. So I will be counted!!!! Again, this is good news! Don’t screw it up ABC! But before you get me back you will have to bring back AMC and OLTL. I would settle for another crossover between AMC and OLTL.
WooHoo!!! Congrats! Roger!! We’ve missed you!
Congrats to Roger! If it brings more viewers and keeps GH on the air, I’m all for it! Should make for some more exciting storylines!
Roger Howarth is a very good addition to GH………….Him & Sonny will lead to some interesting stories.. They are putting OLTL actors on contract.. Does this mean GH will remain on abc?????? They must think they have a fighting good chance they will…Why put people on contract if they wren’t sure about remaining on abc… I have a good feeling about all this…This is just my opinion…I have this gut feeling gh will go on.. My gut feelings usually come true…Even beetter addition will be Michael easton nt. wk.. And we all know that Victor is stiill alive & that crazy Alicen has him…How that happen I quite don’t understand.. We shall see what happens…
I like the orginial Todd.. That just my opinion..To each it’s own…….
yeah, I don’t understand if Victor is alive, how do they think Todd killed him? did they have a different body in a grave? Altho Allison is good at switching bodies and no one figuring it out! ha!
I liked Roger (original Todd), especially with longer hair – even tho I”m not a long hair guy lover – and I really liked Trevor as Todd or Victor or Walker, and then didn’t really like Roger coming back, with short hair as Todd. Now he has new GH hair… I’m not loving it yet. But i’m sure he’ll do a bang up job on GH I’m sure having a contract makes you feel more comfortable in giving it your all.
Did you watch the last episode of OLTL in Jan… You see Victor tied up in a bed alive & allison is there.. Replying to comment on 3/8 at 1:51 pm…
yeah, I saw that, but why do people think Todd killed Victor or even think he’s dead – oh wait, one of them is Walker… so they did have a body but they don’t know there is “another” one . I get it
now IM confused.
How can they go wrong! This is how Roger Howarth originally got his start on OLTL too, only scheduled to do a short run. Roger is the reason I started watching OLTL when I was 10! I am beyond excited for this and think it will help to get the soaps to stick around!
Please!!!Trevor StJohn HAS to come back now!
Hell with Roger, I with you, Trevor St. John….!
I’m with you, I want to see Trevor.. [or Tomas, can’t think of actor’s name at the moment.]
I have nothing against RH, but I am sick of Todd.
well at least we will never have to fight over our men,I like todd,john and I want to see victor live in port charles to,tia can find out he is alive and go on a adventure to look for him ,blair ,starr and roxy could help.hey 1loveabcsoaps I asked you this question before do you think ron and frank are listening?I hope so.the newbes got there pink slips ,there is room for a few of our landview friends .it will help not hurt general hospital,and anything they can do to save our soap,let them do it .
come on,theres room for both of them.
Me too! I’m sick of Roger! He leaves OLTL, goes to ATWT, it gets cancelled, comes back to OLTL, it gets cancelled, & now he gets offered GH! What luck! There are a lot BETTER actors on OLTL who stayed on all along & deserve a job! Why haven’t they gotten any offers?
That would be even better!!!
Tomas was played by Ted King, who also played Lorenzo Alcazar on GH. It is rumored that he will be back.
yeah, he played twin alcazar brothers on GH…. maybe Tomas is a long lost triplet! te he he
So Todd gets off for Victor’s murder or is it revealed Victor is still alive? Better yet, bring Victor back (with Tea and Danielle) to team up with Todd to go after Sonny and Jason.
Victor (or Walker Lawrence) is still alive. As revealed in the ABC finale of OLTL. He’s tied up in Allison Perkin’s apartment.
Love the idea of a teaming of Victor, Tea & Danielle teaming with Todd to take down Sonny. I want Jason to get out of the mob life. {maybe in honor of Robin Scorpio}
Now that is an idea I love. Let’s get renewed first, then the sky is full of possibilities!
yes, yes and yes.we want the story of 2 todds to continue,and we want more one life to live characters in port charles.
I Totally Agree with you!!! Since we know Victor was alive, think of all the fun we could have watching the Manning brothers go at each other on GH!
I have watched AMC & OLTL for years and been a GH watcher off and on (mostly off) since the 70’s but the last few weeks have been a vast improvement – this news is fanf***ingtastic!!! YAY!!!! I will watch 4-ever!!!
Thank you a million thank yous!
I’m so excited I’m actually jumping in my boots. Can u imagine a battle between Sonny and Todd esp when their kids Michael and Starr get involved its like Romeo and Juliet. Kassie needs 2 sign we can see her go crazy over Carly and Todd
Have to say it’s great news… altho I take “contract” with a grain of salt cuz we still don’t know how long it would be for. We got roped into thinking OLTL and AMC would be put online and then they didn’t, so when I read Kristin said she signed a 3 year contract, I thought ‘i’ll believe that when I see it!’ I hope GH will be around for a long time, and perhaps we can get visits from AMC and more OLTL characters – they’d certainly get more viewers that way.
You are so right, Christy! I don’t trust ABC at all. I hope GH will stay but I want to see AMC and OLTL back as a crossover, 1/2 hour each–somehow, someway. We must keep fighting for AMC and OLTL.
OMG!!!! This makes me so happy:) Thank you, Frank Valentini, from the bottom of my heart. I am crying while I write this. I miss my soaps so much. It is a gift that we have anyone on GH as their OLTL characters. A little piece of One Life lives on. Yipee! I hope that Blair gets to stay as well.
Wouldn’t it be nice if Dr. David Hayward came to town? Maybe Orpheus saved Allan Q or Robin? Maybe Tad Martin could come to town on a PI case? Or, back from Dr’s w/o borders, Jamie Martin is the new resident @ GH? If not, that’s ok. More than anything I’m grateful for the gifts we have been given and hope that it is not ending soon and that GH lives on.
They HAVE to put KDP on contract as well. Todd says he will not stop trying to put them all together again and she is all he ever loved and this makes all those words hollow even for soaps. KDP is a carly like character but she was the original she wolf. KDP rocks and they have a huge following., Frankly I love Roger he is so super cool, but if there is no KDP Blair on GH, not tuning in…. NO BLAIR_NOT THERE.
So stupid….. and bring back GENIE too.
Caroline, whose the picture of that U have posted next to your name?
I am a big opera fan… That is opera diva Aprile Millo…. She Loves OLTL too and Erika Slezak and Kassie, Robin, James DePaiva , Roger, and Tom Pelfrey are great friends of hers. GH has to complete the story of the two Todds and they need to sign Kassie and bring back Genie.
caroline ,you and I think alike ,thats what I keep saying let the story of two todds continue,dont know many names male or female ,but I love opera to.hopefully kassie gets a contract soon.and I hope genie francis comes back .general hospital is getting good again,thanks to the older characters coming back ,the mannings and john mcbain.
Yea! I love it!
Maybe… the whole Victor issue could be the way to bring Nora Buchanan to Port Charles….
The actress that plays Nora is working on Bold and Beautiful .
Yes, I know. Hillary B. Smith seems to do alot of “double duties”, as she is also in Venice.
She is wonderful in all her roles, and maybe could try her hand in three !
Great news! I’ve been a huge fan of Roger’s for years & I think he’ll really add to the show.The only thing I don’t like is John coming to GH. I think Michael Easton is one of the most over rated and boring actors on tv. I’m loosing some of the real GH cast that I love to add him and am not happy about it.
WOO HOO! This is great news
Since Victor was alive at the end of OLTL, they need to bring that out in a storyline to clear Todd of his murder.
Oh I agree, but how? I will be following GH very closely now.
agree,but no one knows victor is alive ,thats what john is for ,somehow he will find out ,hopefully victor will show up in port charles to.
I read somewhere that Todd’s coming back in May. That leaves enough time for them to resolve the faux murder. My hope is that Todd comes back to Port Charles to get away from all the people that didn’t support him when they thought he killed Victor. That lets everything be resolved off screen and then you don’t have to bring on all these other OLTL characters, which upsets all the GH fans.
@ Brianca: “and then you don’t have to bring on all these other OLTL characters, which upsets all the GH fans.”
LOL
Are you one of the GH fans that it upsets?
Are you a OLTL fan/ GH fan that wants to see OLTL character’s over at GH?
Im a general hospital fan and a one life to live fan not a one life to live h8ter,and I am very happy a few characters will move to port charles.todd will be back in may ,he has a contract,hope blair comes back to along with everyone that was involved with the story of 2 todds.its just another story on general hospital ,the writing has improved and the ratings are proving that ,so this one life to live and general hospital fan is loving it, and you wont hear me complain.
I’m a huge OLTL fan. I watched it with my mom growing up, and it has been one of the only shows that I have consistently watched as an adult. I LOVE RH and think he is an amazing actor! I’d watch him on GH, and I watched OLTL and ATWT to see him. I just have seen a lot of the hateful comments on blogs and soap sites that are upset about any OLTL actors coming over to GH.
I heard Victor is in talks with Ron. Barbara t told me that today. I have to get back with her about that, bc I want to know where she heard that at?
All these rumors all over the place. I like to know the source bc I don’t want to get my hopes up for nothing.
Yummo now THAT’S what we wanna watch on daytime! Now sign Kassie DePaiva and you will have the icing on the cake!
Yes, please sign Kassie too.
I am curious as to how Ted King will play into the fabric of GH with the crossover with OLTL.
One thing is for sure, I do trust Ron and Frank to give us “soap opera history” with the stories they will weave !
I hope ted king is tomas,we dont need to bring him back with the mob stories again,I think toemas ,tia blair,star,john and todd should get involved with the real, who killed victor story, then find out he is very much alive.lets clear todd.
This rocks..I’ve always wanted to see howarth and geary.now make right though and put massive in.
That should be kassie.
yes wouldnt carly and blair be the best of friends?or enemies.I love it she has to be next.
I have beening enjoying the storyline of Todd and Blair the best couple ever,,, i sure hope yall keep Kassie DePaiva as Blair in Port Charles. Kassie rock them scenes she did and hope to see alot more of Blair on GH.
Thrilled about this! But like you said, the Mannings won’t be complete without Kassie DePaiva being signed to a contract as well so they better get on that next.
Great news!!! Still want Finola to get a contract more! Then would love Trevor St John and Kassie DePaiva to both get one too! Would love Tristan to at least be reoccurring if not a contract! Can’t forget Frisco and Felicia too! I would love to see JPL cast as Dillion Q. Most of all would still love to get Kirsten Storms back ASAP!!!
Awesome news,! Keep GH alive! Bring Natalie!
DITTO!!!
great news for roger and gh, maurice benard is the best look forward to sonny and todd going at it, they have great chemistry but maurice would have chemistry with a road sign. love him , cannot wait for michael easton to come to gh and see maurice and steve go toe to toe with roger and michael .
This is absolutely absurd. There has been no news (unfortunately) of Trevor St. John, nor anyone else, coming from OLTL to GH which means the little issue of Todd murdering his own brother, leaving Tea as a pregnant widow and people who loved Victor like Jack and Dani devastated, will pretty much be cast aside. While Victor is alive, psychopathic Todd believes he did murder him and has no remorse for it, but will get off scott-free without a proper ending to that storyline. This is not only horrendous story-telling, but for OLTL fans, this is trying to play those of us who are intelligent audience members as fools.
Something strange happened yesterday and today. Yes, T uesday, I heard Blair say U had Victor all along held hostage. Today, Wednesday, I heard Blair say U suppose to be in jail for killing your own brother…. Am I correct. Im going to have to watch it again on abc.com.
also need to add kassie as well, gh is the best anyway because of maurice benard,steve burton and tony geary so why not add more storyline for them all.
U got it it Susan. I am happy to see someone on here give Maurice prompts., along with Burton and Geary. Yes, Maurice is over worked (mob stories) everyones complaint, BUT its not his fault, its the writer’s. Bottom line, Maurice has a HELL of allot of fans out here, and for year’s carried the show alone on the Brenda and Sonny love story.
I know. Poor Maurice. He should get to do his bipolar story or something other than the mob. But he comes in, does his job, and the majority hates his character.
I hope he gets his way and gets to leave with Brenda and live happily ever after. The very first time I watched GH was back when they were first getting to know each other on the plane. Back when there was Lois and Miguel too.
DITTTO
i’ll only be happy with this if TREVOR ST JOHN COMES TO GH
Gosh, I can’t wait…
They can’t have evereyone from oltl on gh ………I wish they could combine the two soaps together…………..
Congratulations to Roger how exciting he’s an amazing actor!
Congratulations, Roger!!! He is a wonderful actor and he’s always been one of my favorites on One Life To Live. I absolutely LOVED watching him today on GH. He and Laura Wright were fantastic together! It’s been years since I have felt this way about General Hospital. Now, I can hardly wait ’til the next day’s episodes!
They have to bring Kassie DePaiva on, watching her this week on GH was as if a little of OLTL lives on. She’s great.
Hmm! Ok so 4 male characters that we are going to see all the time 2 are rapists Luke & Todd one a mob guy & his hit man! And the new title of the show is I Have One Life To Live at General Hosipital!
LOL LOL LOL LMAS…..
or you have one life to live at general hospital if its not canceled,I have a few places to go here and leave my comments,the music,lisa rinna, roger howarth,felica,robins death ,I mean life ,Ive been living in a soap opera myself for the past few days.seriously I cant talk one life to live with you? I wrote a long letter to abc/disney about the cancellation of one life to life ,and how I wont be apart of anything abc/disney tries to sell me,including putting on all the afternoon soap stars on there prime time garbage .I think general hospital has been good ,better then it has been in decades ,I like it and I am happy that the manning family will be staying in port charles ,I hope that ,blair,victor, tia and roxie move there to lets continue the story of 2 todds,Im all for that .that story has got to end and general hospitals ratings are starting to go up,and thats a good thing ,and it also has to do with the oltl fans that are now tuning into gh.can you believe that chick lisa rinna saying that some actor she will be working with cant act? and also saying that crazy broad on the house wifes show should do something about her lips,lisa rinna had big ugly lips,I cant stand her .oh, here I go off subject again,well I have a few places to leave some comments ,If Im in the mood I have a few things to say about linsey lohan and what is she doing here?
Congrats Roger! You will be a welcomed and much needed addition to GH. Kassie is next! So exciting!
That’s awesome news! I would like to see KDP stick around as well.
Great news, such a dynamic actor I also see him giving Sonny something to do besides the loves of his life, mobster with a heart of gold, dimples have been on repeat for years and the guy deserves decent, competent enemies which PC currently has none of. I love that Michael Easton is coming I’m so tired of women fantasizing and dying for a murderer like Jason, which took up 2 episodes.
GH needs to put Kassie DePaiva on contract as well!! While I am happy to see that Roger received a contract to continue on GH, anyone who has watched OLTL for a while is well aware of the chemistry between Todd and Blair. GH is on a mission to improve their ratings, so why not bring on a fan favorte like Kassie DePaiva? She is a fabuous actress whose long term appearance on GH would most definitely boost ratings, because her long time fans (and there are many of us, myself included) would tune in primarly to watch her work her on-screen magic.
I am so excited for Roger and wish him great success. Not being a Blair fan, I’ll be fine without KDP.
i agree hope kassie gets signed too & i know alcazar will come back that will be wierd huh lmao very happy with this decison i would love for blair & carly to own the hotel i think they would be great partners way better than kate & carly being partners come on & i say let bree aka oltl jessica take over kates role she does that job best of double personalities thing lmao way better than kelly doing kate& connie lmao but whatever im just glad thats another oltl actor on gh i see gh ratings going up faster & faster!!!!
Keeping my fingers crossed on the Kassie DePaiva front myself. Todd and Blair are just wonderful together because of the chemistry DePaiva and Howarth have. It only makes sense that if Todd and Starr are in Port Charles, Blair should be too! I think Kassie has been killin’ it this week. It’s been fantastic, and I want more!
Congrats to Roger, but without Kassie (Blair) I won’t be watching.
So when exactly are they planning to put Kassie on contract? That’s the only way I’ll continue to watch. She is the only reason I tuned in to GH.
I would rather be reading that OLTL will get a reprieve, but ill take it! Fabulous news for RH! I hope Kassie is offered a long term contract too.
Blair will be next to get signed. Especially after those fantastic scenes yesterday.
Thing is, I kinda like Todd with Carly. I never thought Jax was irrecplaceable.
I am starting to change my mind.
Curious how Todd comes in May (why so long) He must be found NOT guilty of charges.
RE: Something strange happened Tuesday and Wednesday.
Tuesday, I heard Blair say U had Victor ‘ all along ‘ held hostage.
Wednesday, I heard Blair say U suppose to be in jail for killing your own brother…. Am I correct in my hearing? Please advise, which one is it. BC that doesn’t make sense. She either knows Victor is alive or she doesn’t…..!
Sorry, I didn’t pick up on that. I saw you posted that earlier. You will have to rewatch that scene on Ytube or abc.com
wasnt she talking to tomas?I liked the way tia said his name ,I dont think she knows hes alive ,she smacked poor todd ,I hope ron is reading this,but the way blair was talking it is opening up the door for tomas and victor to come to port charles ,but i agree with you ,I want to know who blair was talking to both times.It could mean something did you go to soaptown usa then go to looselips every week there is a update for general hospital,the sight is usually right ,Its one of michaels recommended sights ,I go there every week for gh updates.last week her words were for all the oltl people to listen carefully ,maybe its what you heard ,go there every week.always a good read.
Agreed, not Gigi either on GH. I like Gigi, but not that much to see her crossover. No Natalie. Would love Roxy, and agree with you about Tea- her acting abilty, that face, she is gorgeous and has a great body. Tea will get plenty of work. Just playing an attorney on TV will afford her plenty of offer’s BC to play one can be as difficult as being one. ( This I know). Both require acting. I looked up Tea/ Florencia Lozano on Wikipedia back in November and she has done ALLOT of projects elsewhere, as U suggested you have seen her doing.
@ Barbara t: “but i agree with you ,I want to know who blair was talking to both times.”
See Barbara heard this too….. Imma have to watch it on abc.com for Tues and Wedn when Blair said it. It was confusing bc she said 2 different things both days. I re-watched all of last weeks shows all this week at night. Gonna have to do same with this week shows. I also didn’t know that Youtube shows the entire show, I thought it was just clips of shows. Thanks anyway.
She was talking to Tomas. First time was a mystery, 2nd time she said his name a few times.
did you watch it and find out ?the second time it was tomas the first time she didnt say.
I am thrilled that Roger is going to be on General Hosp. I just love him very much and he’s a great great actor. Sooooooooooo happy about that
Michael, your source doesn’t say anything about Michael Easton being on contract. Are you sure he is really on contract like Alderson and Howarth?
I get the feeling that Easton being on contract is just a rumor.
TVGuide confirmed it was a two-year contract for Michael Easton.
However, contracts don’t mean a thing. If the show is cancelled they are out. A contract still comes up due every 3 months.
The only good thing about is a contract is that nothing has been cancelled yet!
Then why does Laura Wright have a two year contract?? I’m sure there are three-month intervals that could allow the show to let the actor go. But not the actor leave.
YES!! !! !! !! !! !! !!
Great News! Now Kassie DePaiva has to be offered a contract. She is the best! Frank Valentini is now on Twitter as well @valentinifrank March Madness General Hospital!
For those of us who don’t twitter, can you share??? 🙂
