This Thursday, July 31st brings the highly-anticipated episode of Celebrity Family Feud, featuring cast members from General Hospital against cast members from The Young and the Restless.

Host Steve Harvey will navigate the battle of the soap operas in the second half of the show, while DJ superstar and music producer, Diplo goes up against Laverne Cox in the first-half. It all begins on ABC beginning at 8pm ET and streams the next day on Hulu.

In some of the first look photos promoting the episode, General Hospital is represented by Finola Hughes (Anna Devane), Donnell Turner (Curtis Ashford), Rena Sofer (Lois Cerullo), Tanisha Harper (Jordan Ashford) and Maurice Benard (Sonny Corinthos). The team from The Young and the Restless is comprised of Bryton James (Devon Hamilton), Melissa Claire Egan (Chelsea Lawson), Lauralee Bell (Christine Blair), Michelle Stafford (Phyllis Summers) and Joshua Morrow (Nick Newman).

When the promo was revealed for the 11th season of Celebrity Family Feud, it contained a moment where GH’s Rena Sofer is answering the question: “Name something your mate’s booty has in common with the basketball.” Rena said, “It bounces.” No doubt, we will see this moment in context when the two soaps battle it out.

Meanwhile, back in May, Finola Hughes visited Live with Kelly and Mark, where we learned she was the GH team captain on Celebrity Family Feud, and had trouble with the game buzzer, but recalling that both teams were in it to win it, Hughes shared, “We were definitely feuding. ”

In addition, from these first look pics, Y&R’s Joshua Morrow looks to be playing a final round of “Fast Money,” but is he? There is no word yet, which charities each soap opera was playing for, or what the outcome was, but stay tuned!

The following week on August 7, will see former ‘Real Housewives of Beverly Hills’ star, Kyle Richards battling it out with singer/songwriter/actress Kandi Burruss-Tucker followed by members of the NFLPA (National Football League Players Association) Offense and NFLPA Defense facing off.

Team Y&R for the sole reason there are more actors I enjoy rather than the GH team.
On the Y&R team I like Egan, Bell & Morrow. In the GH team I only care about Hughes & Sofer.
So I’m rooting for Y&R, although in all honesty, I’m pretty certain I won’t be watching.
I’m old enough to remember Melody Thomas Scott being a game show BEAST in the 1980s!

Funny. Looking at the Y& R lineup makes me want to yawn. Cricket? Chelsea? And Duh Yawn? Possibly the dullest characters in daytime history.

“In all honesty, I’m pretty certain I won’t be watching.” Then why comment at all? You felt compelled to write 2 seperate posts about a game show you won’t be watching while also insulting the intelligence of an actor from GH. Highly obnoxious. In any case, this sounds really fun! I like to see the soap actors as themselves, letting their guard down, having some laughs while not playing a part. I WILL be watching!

Enjoy, hunty!

Don’t be a douche.

Interesting how Benard is the “Star” of the show but last in the lineup probably because he’s not the brightest bulb in the lineup…. at least when it comes to game shows. Just an observation…

Please show us your IQ test results.

Pretty low fruit to take shots at actors you do not know other than what you see on TV

Your user name speaks volumes.
Enjoy, hunty!

Discorules must mean “a silly troll”

If you listened to Maurice Benard’s podcast,” State of Mind,” you’d know he is quite intelligent and insightful.

Bo-ring!

Actually, having a bright panelist towards the end of the line is not a bad strategy. This person has to come up with a popular answer that hasn’t been mentioned by the four other members of his team. That’s not a job for a dunce.

I’m a devoted Young and Restless fan and I really hope that they win/won the game!!

I could care less who wins (I’m lying, I want GH to win) but it looks like they had fun, its nice seeing the cast from these show hanging out for a good cause, and Original Nina will be fun to see interacting with her ex GH costars, Her character was best buddy with Curtis whom they seem to be going up against each other but wouldn’t it have been more fun if she spar with Maurice whom if she would of stuck around longer she would played sonny wife.

I can guarantee (nearly 100%) that the Nixon Falls storyline would not have happened with Stafford in the role. Watros had the subtleties and nuances to play Nina in that situation. Staffford’s delivery would not gel with Bernard’s.

I should have you pick out my lottery numbers next time since you’re such a fortune teller.

06 17 33 49 55 20

Since you asked. Not sure what you were aiming at. But, come on, could you really see Stafford & Benard together?

Need the Kelce family on the show

This week on all-new episodes of General Hospital, the race is on! Can Lulu (Alexa Havins) and Dante (Dominic Zamprogna) get to Rocco (Finn Carr) and Britt (Kelly Thiebaud) in time to ensure their safety from Cullum (Andrew Hawkes)?

These questions may be answered, plus the return of the one and only Anna Devane (Finola Hughes) are on tap!

In the just released General Hospital spoilers video for the week of June 22-26, Lulu tells her mother, Laura (Genie Francis), “Dante and I have to get to Rocco before Cullum!” Meanwhile, Rocco (Finn Carr) looks angered and emotional as Britt walks through their cabin hideout. Does Rocco know his parents are on the way to find them, or has Cullum already tracked them down to the British Virgin Islands?

Back in Port Charles, Carly is informing Lucas that his niece, “is a WSB agent.” She knows Josslyn (Eden McCoy) is being held against her will at Wyndemere, and she has to find a way to get her out. Lucas agrees with Carly’s plan of, “We go in and we don’t leave without Josslyn!” Elsewhere, Josslyn is looking worried for her future as she is stuck in captivity thanks to Cassius, Cullum and Sidwell!

FINOLA HUGHES RETURNS

The final moments of the teaser promo reveal Anna in a psychiatric clinic in France. We have not seen her for months after Cullum, Sidwell and Pascal fed her hallucinogenics to make her believe her arch nemesis, Cesar Faison was alive!

Now, the doctors walk towards her hospital bed, where we see the super spy calmly knitting. Is Anna back to normal and playing everyone to get out of her predicament, or does she still remain deeply traumatized … or both?

Take a look at the rest of the official GH spoilers for the week below.

Willow gets an unwelcome surprise. Trina sticks to her guns. “Nathan” wants reassurance. Ethan advises Ava. Brook Lynn receives an update.

Check out the latest General Hospital promo entitled, “Rescue Mission” below.

Now weigh-in: Do you think Anna is still mentally off-balance, or OK, and just pretending to be troubled to get out of France and get back to Port Charles? Will Josslyn finally be rescued, or will Carly and Lucas find themselves locked up with her? And, who will get to Britt and Rocco first? Cullum, or Dante and Lulu?

Maurice Benard Gives High Praise to ‘General Hospital’ Writers; Teases Upcoming Sonny Scenes with Anna, Jason, Justine and Ric

Published

With the highly-anticipated returns of Finola Hughes (Anna Devane) on this week’s June 24 episode of General Hospital, Steve Burton’s (Jason Morgan) upcoming return on July 13, which also serves as the ABC daytime drama’s 16,000 episode, things are about to fire on all cylinders in the story, as noted today by series star, Maurice Benard (Sonny Corinthos).

On Father’s Day, the three-time Daytime Emmy-winning actor and mental health activist took to his Instagram and expressed in a video that he has some unbelievable upcoming senes with the aforementioned Burton and Hughes. Add to that Nazneen Contractor (Justine Turner) and Rick Hearst (Ric Lansing), where Benard gave credit where credit is due to the GH writing team, which is led by co-head writers, Elizabeth Korte and Chris Van Etten..

In this video, Benard said, “I just want to get on here and say that I did some work with Steve Burton, Finola Hughes, Rick Hearst, Nazneen Contractor, and they’re all just fantastic. Truly fantastic. But, I want to say the writing was just exceptional. It truly was. It was exceptional. So, thankful for that kind of writing. I know writers don’t get the credit a lot, but I just want to say to the General Hospital writing team, keep rolling!”

GENERAL HOSPITAL PREVIEW

So now the question becomes, with a major tease like that, what is about to go down between Sonny, Anna, Jason, Justine and Ric? Will we finally get to the end of the line for Sidwell (Carlo Rota), as previously teased by the GH co-head writers? Will we learn what happened to Jason and Anna, fully? Will Justine and Sonny becomes closer or stop their liaisons? And what of Ric? Will he be true blue to his brother or double-cross him? There is a lot at stake as we move further into the summer and one that looks like it could be one of the more exciting ones in years!

FINOLA HUGHES CONFIRMED AMAZING SCENES WITH MAURICE BENARD

As a punctuation point to his video, Benard also shared this written message in the post: “I just did some wonderful scenes with Steve Burton, Rick Hearst, Finola Hughes and Nazneen Contractor and  and unbelievable writing, freaking amazing scenes that you will see in the near future on General Hospital.” In fact, Finola Hughes jumped in the post comment thread and responded, “I loved our scenes so much xxx”

Fans will most likely see all the scenes Benard referred to later in July, since GH tapes approximately six weeks ahead of air.

So, are you excited to see what Maurice is talking about? Are you hyped for what’s to come on GH? Any clue on what you think will go down between the main characters on the soap with the returns of Anna Devane and Jason Morgan to the mix? Weigh-in via the comment section below.

SINCE LEAVING GENERAL HOSPITAL

Previously, since his departure from the ABC soap opera. Chad starred alongside Zach Mendez in the world premiere of of Yum Yum at Annapolis, a new play written by Bruce Reisman. Duell last appeared on General Hospital on the January 21, 2025 episode.

The part was recast with Rory Gibson who debuted as the new Michael in May of 2025 during the Nurses’ Ball episodes and who has remained in the role since that time.

In an interview earlier this year on The Able Show, Duell said on his decision to exit the soap opera, “I was blessed to be part of that (show) for as long as I have, but what happens sometimes is if you’re doing the same thing, especially in a creative field for such a long time, you can get a little burnt out in a way. It can make you a little depressed, so that’s kind of what happened. On top of that, I had other things going on in my life at the time. My father passed away recently and I just needed a reset. So, I stepped away. A lot of times you have to go through some stuff to really step into that next level. I needed to kind of feel uncomfortable.”

So, what type of musical genre will Chad’s new song be? Country? Pop? Rock? Dance/Club? Something else? Let us know your thoughts via the comment section below, and if you are eager to hear the new single next week via the comment section below.
