Elizabeth Hendrickson Says Goodbye To General Hospital
86
GH saddled Liz with a terrible character and even worse writing. Margaux was not relatable at all, and her storyline left a lot to be desired. They tried pairing her with Drew but that fizzled quickly, especially when she tried to get him to turn against Jason. And the possibility of a Margaux/Sonny pairing was scary, because the last thing viewers needed was Sonny cheating on Carly again, especially after what everyone thought happened with Nelle not too long ago. This character never had a long staying power on the canvas, and frankly I thought she’d be one of Ryan… Read more »
Hearst would be phenomenal!
LOVE your idea on bringing back Ric Lansing. talk about a phenom! BRILLIANT actor. who . perhaps is so good he overshadows “his” brother @Maurice Benard’ Sonny. so this answers the audience question Carly can forget about Jax as an adversarial w/Sonny. that’s long gone. @GH should make this more personal and familial.. and the heartbreak w/his brother be that much more intense, vulnerable, bring down the little man… stomp him out ?!?! You can clearly tell the writers are doing every thing they can to make Sonny that family man… town leader… the men @GH just TOWER over Sonny.… Read more »
You both were OLTL fans, yes..
Brody Lovett (is that real name or character?)
he is coming to GH, he’s been signed on, I read in mail..
Hey, Su. Yep! Mark Lawson who played Brody is coming over to GH. Love it! Gorgeous guy; good actor. Not sure who he’ll play yet or how long he’s staying. Personally, I think he’d make an excellent Lucky recast but I haven’t heard that they’re recasting that character.
Ric Lansing could be Ava Jerome NEW LOVE interest !!!!
stick it to and get the DIG IN w/Sonny… if the little man continues to keep Avery from
I’m so glad that Jax is distracted with… Cynthia Watros’ nuNINA and with Valentin as well. flesh Jax OUT and about… and not just supporting Joss, Sonny, and Carly… who are boring
A replacement DA would probably be appointed by the Mayor. Since Laura is the mayor, the obvious choice for a DA would be Scotty Baldwin. He’s had the job before so nobody would challenge his qualifications.
Ric Lansing would be a reasonable choice (he’s also had the gig before) but he can’t seem to stay in town for very long, so I doubt they’re going there.
I’m OK with either one. Just no more new characters and for the love of all that’s unholy, no more Nora Buchanan or any other OLTL characters!
I wish she would stay away, I hate her ass.
Fortunately, far too many people disagree with you.
Good Luck and God Bless You Elizabeth, you did a great job and I hope the future gets you many more good jobs.
Hoping every day in every way, that Chloe shot Adam and we see Kevin first to bring her back with another bang!
I know it’s often said, but they really did waste her at GH. She came on strong and then fizzled to next-to-nothingness. I wish her well in her next endeavor.
I thought Michelle Stafford was a big waste on GH. Whoa, Elizabeth was ten times worse! They had no clue on how to write her character! She and Billy Miller had mega chemistry on Y&R and all but ignored that on GH. Liz will probably go back to Y&R and thats a good thing!
Hello again, Sir Timmmbo!!! The problem with GH is that most of its “soap get vets” are totally wasted in their new Port Charles roles….once they arrive with much ballyhoo on the canvas, nobody seems to know what to do with them, so we have to suffer through many a lackluster character and storyline to justify the high-cost of bringing these “big names” to the show. Very rarely do the results justify the expenditures….all we are left with are more and more people inhabiting space that have nothing to do with the true nature of GH….it’s both frustrating and off-putting… Read more »
It’s time for Chloe to come out of hiding!
Don’t know if she’s really hiding, or if Adam has really had her taken, as Kevin seems to think.All the posting he’s been doing, seems very incriminating.
Love Elizabeth, but not Margaux. From the get-go, I knew she wouldn’t last considering how many new characters GH keeps coming up with. I wish they would use the actors they’ve always had. She’s much better off on Y&R.
Will be waiting for you over in GC. Kevin’s already there kidnapping Phyllis. Esther will be glad to see you, especially since she thinks you are dead. Also, hope to see you bust Adam’s chops some more. You may be small, but you’re mighty!
they wasted her
The DA Margaux was mostly backburned..
She will do much better as Chloe Y&R..
Looking forward to her return at Y&R, that will be much better for Hendrickson ..
Hi sOOO, the little run in with Margaux and Drew, reminded he how good they were together. Too bad it was wasted on GH.
this is another one of those heart wrench disappointment – PERIOD having nothing to do with Ms. Hendrickson’ talent. NEVER FULLY UTILIZED. THAT is such a disgrace to @Frank, Shelly, AND Chris. SHAME the three of you are racking up the excitement alone… will she or won’t she – LOVE INTEREST for either Billy Miller and even Jason ???? the weak story she shared with Maurice Benard. GOD what junk. All I can say is that I’m glad she had that one year of employ… just like Ingo Rademacher had @B&B. TALENT hidden and left by the wayside.
Character had lasting potential but then again the writers never really made her fit in and give her anything really interesting-she should be the one who murders Shilo but i think it will be Willow’s mom who bumps him off!!!
Another character never developed. And the beat goes on. . . and on. . . and on . . . . !
I was not a fan of Chloe’s, at first…. but I did gradually changed my mind, as I did for Margaux. Perhaps, it’s the fact that I love Elizabeth, the actress. Contrary to what most Y&R fans feel, I want her to return to the show……which puts me in a quandary right now. Who shot Adam? Chloe or Kevin? Who else? I still think Tessa is untrustworthy?!?! Who took Phyllis? It could not have been Chloe….the perpetrator was taller than Phyllis, with masculine hands. Kevin? But why? Is it to truncate any alliance budding between her and Adam? Furthermore, if… Read more »
Change–not changed….
PS. If she were to come back to Y&R, how would the writers explain Chloe’s return—-a feasible explanation, I hope.
Celia Hi there. I just wondered if you caught the last scene between Margaux and Drew? I think there could have been a lot of chemistry or romance there, if they had paired them together. I liked them together on Y&R, before she went nuts, after Delia’s death. I agree with your other post about Billy leaving the child in the car. I remember having bad thoughts about that, when it happened. I also, still do not like Tessa. She’s as dull as dish water, and she holds Mariah back. I usually fast forward through their scenes, and at least… Read more »
Hi, Violet, I’m with you. ….do not like either Tessa or Ana. I actually did Like Ana at first, but something happened…..As yourself, I can’t put my finger on it. I assume some characters lack charisma—-that certain “je ne sais quoi” characteristic that pulls the audience in. I am getting that ‘rejection’ feeling for the new Nina…..this woman looks old enough to be Valentin’s mother !!!!! Good grief!!!! Couldn’t the PTB find a closer-to-the-original copy? Yes, Billy and Elizabeth had that vibe going on in Genoa City—–I think Billy is being wasted as Drew, to be honest with you….Wonder of… Read more »
Hi Celia
Your reply is a good case in point. I was just lucky to have seen it today. I was not notified of this reply. While liking your ideas, I am very technically challenged, and trying out any of your ideas might send me into utter chaos, but I’ll try . Just read that Billy Miller may be leaving GH for greener pastures, so who knows, maybe he’ll be grazing in the pastures of Wisconsin. I do like J.T, but would welcome Billy back. What do you think of the new Adam? I mean the character, not the actor.
Of course, we wish her the best in her new(or old) adventure. The actress also did mention that viewers should look for her on ” another network “(hint).
Man, what a pointless character for a wonderful actress.
Isn’t she going back to Y&R so we can relive 2013 and hear about Delia 685 times and Billy never admit his role in leaving a child in a car alone .
Hey, Kay……what an irresponsible thing for a parent to do!! Leave a kid alone in a car!!
I still have a hard time coming to grips with that absurdity –yet, the PTB chose not to make a big deal about it. And, Billy’s life goes on.
I wish Thompson would leave as Tognoni. One out, one to go.
Great thespians in the wrong role.
Lol Right? I cant get over Josh Griffit and why on earth after Mal Young are subjected to him again after his last mediocre run? Were the fans ever waiting for resolution to Dehlias death? Josh scrapped Kyle and Summers marriage when it looked like Kyle was really being torn and it made for such a realistic complex triangle inwhich I was enjoying both relationships!..aswell he ditched the Rosales brothers triangle when all it needed was less airtime so viewers werent bombarded with daily screentime. Chloe and Kevin are a joke and not the drama y n r needs right… Read more »
Trying to stay positive but tough you can’t go back to the past you just have to make some adjustments and pray to move forward but we don’t revolving door since 2006 with head writers I do not blame them they just lack talent when Kay and Sally came back for what ten months I had faith yes it was slow for some but it takes time to correct mistakes ! Absolutely no need for Adam to return how many times can you die? I like the new Adam but JG is forgetting the past I realize Prat ruined the… Read more »
The new Adam has the anger of CE and MM versions he was never a lover boy and JM just is not up to the challenge he has only had two styles of acting a horney kid or a mad brat he has never grown in twenty plus years and the thought of him and MS crawling all over each other and calling it acting is repulsive
NICE !!!! Marquee – APB – STAT ie: Joshua Morrow ^^^
what you said
No I don’t think anybody was asking for her character back or Kevin put a fork in it
I know, Damien!!——one of the worst couplings on soaps; Kevin and Chloe. As with Franco and Elizabeth ( GH) I like both, but separately. I will probably get kicked in the proverbial arse for this, but I was really getting into Summer and Kyle. She has come out of her stuck-up-rich-girl universe—-I like her honesty right now. I still think Kyle is going through a phase—-One that is a novelty to him? Has he ever been involved with anyone other than the Summer-type? Lola is, also, starting to get on my nerves. Miss Little-Goody Two-Shoes….So unnerving. No one is that… Read more »
I think she is a fine actress. The character was not well written. But she did a great job. I wish her well!
Good riddance to Margaux.
The new DA will be Anna..
She has no purpose, as of now.
So- it will be Anna.
I am not liking it, but—–
Well, suOOO, she had better get her butt back soon, because Hayden will be there any day now to take Finn back, I hope!
Anna’s not a lawyer, so she’s not eligible to be a district attorney. She could be the police commissioner again if necessary though.
I think Mac is going to be brought back as the commish. Way too long. He never should have been booted off the show in the first place. I’d love for it to be permanent and Jordan to join Curtis in his PI work
rebecca1…looks like sanity has prevailed and Mac is back where he belongs as the commish, at least temporarily. Hope it ends up full-time. Things got done and solved back when he used to head up the department.
rose…love Mac. I’m hoping both he and Robert stick around; seems like they’re FINALLY bringing back actual GH characters! I’m still hoping Peter turns out to be Robin’s twin!
Rebecca1…Yesterday was happy to hear the WSP fired Robert, even though I think he is really deep undercover. You don’t just fire intelligence people with a good track record. But for now Port Charles can have him back.
Made me kinda sad; sort of signified the end of an era; our characters/actors are getting older and so are we. Gone are the young Scorpio, Anna, Frisco, Sean Donelly, etc..and those adventure-packed GH days.
But, yes, that’s what I’m thinking. I’m HOPING that Tristan Rogers wants to stick around and that they make him DA. I’d love that.
rebecca1…”Oh” I so agree about the end of an era.. and it’s not just with soaps and GH. It’s all things and people. Maybe that’s why many are so tuned into Downton Abbey. It stands still for a long while, but even it’s characters and circumstances are changing, too. I get a lot of this from older customers at the bookstore I work at who find so much disappearing. Sometimes I feel like a hairdresser whose customers tell you all kinds of stuff “in confidence.” And even the younger, college aged staff are concerned where life is going. Like “Do… Read more »
Hey, Rose…Is Frisco still running the WSB??? I’m so remiss in my GH viewing these days, I’m not sure, but if he remains in charge, there is NO way he would fire a superspy like his old pal, Robert Scorpio! Me thinks he may be working deep cover as an ex-WSBer….but any excuse to keep him in Port Charles works for me!
I don’t know what Frisco is up to. But I did see he was on a Hallmark production. Better he come back to Port Charles for a while and straighten out Maxie. Saw a show on PBS fundraiser a couple of weeks ago about the upcoming Downton Abbey movie. Just watching familiar characters and scenes just put me in an good mood as I anticipate the movie. I read the first book of Discovery Of Witches to get me through the waiting period until season 2. The book and season 1 are alike with lots more info in the book.… Read more »
I do think they mentioned that Frisco was still heading up the WSB. Didn’t Felicia mention that when Scorpio told them? I don’t know…I feel like someone said that in the dialogue.
You may be right; maybe he wasn’t fired but is really deep undercover and has to let on that he’s been let go. Seemed strange that after he told them he’d been fired he got a phone call from the WSB…so, not sure.
Hello again, Rose! I love your suggestion that Frisco returns to PC to “straighten out Maxie,” as it’s obvious neither Mac nor Felicia are doing that job. Of course, any reason for Jack Wagner reappearing on the GH canvas works for me! As for the Downton Abbey movie preview on PBS? I saw that, too, and my regional stations are still showing the reruns of the original program, so I do tune in whenever I can to get my “Dame Maggie” fix…It’s amazing how even when you already know exactly what Violet is going to say before she says it,… Read more »
Shay…look forward to seeing “Beecham House.” Thanks for letting me know.
@Rose…You’re welcome. If you do a search, you should be able to locate episodes 1 and 2 on Dailymotion. I have already watched both, although I must confess that Beecham House will never match Downton Abbey in terms of charm, heart and charisma, Still, it is nicely done, as are all British period dramas, which really go all out on gorgeous costumes and scenery. Be forewarned that BH does get off to a bit of a slow start, and it’s admittedly quite difficult to get used to “Mrs. Patmore” as a lady of means…but she’ll get there in the end.… Read more »
Shay…Thanks for the followup. I may have to change my access to these kind of shows. I am still on a regular network type packages, and have resisted the Hulu, HBO, Netflix, etc. etc, etc. that are out there now. I know I’m missing some good programming, but I just want to keep my life simple and have been stubborn to change.
Not at all, Rose!!!!! I’m much the same…I’ve never been one for subscriptions either, and I’ve rarely even had any TV packages, as I don’t watch enough programming to bother with them. (I have used Amazon Prime, but that’s it…) Most of my foreign vehicle viewing is simply down to finding the right websites online….I’m loathe to mention others beyond DM because I don’t know that is permitted here, but just searching for any given show you desire will almost always yield some sort of viable video link. Once you find those few reliable go-to-sites, you will see that they… Read more »
Shay..A bit of a soap break… I am a casual tennis watcher. Love Federer since he came on the scene, so am watching the Wimbledon finals. But leave it to the Brits. They don’t just call it a tennis match. It’s The GENTLEMAN’S Championship Finals. With some royalty and others in shirts and jackets. Almost a formal event compared to their sports.
Oh, yes, Rose! Wimbledon is a fond reminder of a long lost world, where and when every event warranted “dressing to the nines!” It’s so nice to see men wearing suits and ties and females actually attired in ladylike finery! (Save for a few embarrassing Americans who apparently thought they were too special to follow the time-honored dress code…) Anyway, I was rooting for Roger, too, so I was sad to see him lose, but I conversely loved the outcome of the ladies’ final! By the way, did you know our beloved Dame Maggie was seated in the Royal Box… Read more »
Satan
Well here you are. I’ve been looking for you. Why haven’t you come to PC to take out Shiloh?
You think I want him down here in Hell??
Pretty bad, when the devil doesn’t want someone!
Hey, SusieQ,
Anna is not an attorney….one must have gone through the rigors of Law School for that—how can she possibly prosecute without that extensive knowledge and experience? Then again, you may be right….anything, where soaps are concerned, goes, albeit I do agree with you about her.
I am done with Anna. As you say, she has no purpose—-one of the worst couplings is Anna and Finn–neither has a purpose.
I used to be such a fan of both, but these two offer absolutely nothing, except nonsense.
Even though I was initially all for it, I can certainly relate to your disappointment in the Anna-Finn pairing, CeeCeeGirl! To think that that ultracool superspy, “The Divine Devane,” has fallen hard for a meek dude with a service lizard does rather beggar belief! And that is a shame because I really like both Hughes and Easton, too! Instead of Anna bringing Finn up to her previously fierce, daring level, she seems to have become much more gooey and immature around him, which is not what one would have ever expected of her. I do hope that if this couple… Read more »
I suspect it would have been an even better experience if she had been involved in a storyline.
Good. Take that ugly red blazer they always put you in
On the contrary, DMRR…..It will be recycled for the next unlucky character who has the misfortune to be stuck wearing it non-stop. Just like Alexis and her few well-worn suit jackets….you really would think that a highly-paid lawyer could spring for a few amazing designer statement pieces that would stand the test of time, but not in Port Charles!
Best of luck to her…This character just never caught on..It was just dull from the very beginning..All of the new characters that the show has added the last couple of years have just been so WRONG, except for Oscar and he gets killed off and Hayden, and she gets written off SMH..Glad to see Jax back..Also looking forward to the return of Hayden to the show..Anna and Finn just do not do it for me!! Make Anna a bad ass again and reunite her with Scorpio with an spy adventure storyline.
Michael Easton is so out of his league w/Robert AND Anna
so he’s providing another miracle… this time w/Jordan
AND this amounts to ??? how much more exciting can Finn bear ? watching him w/Anna is a tragic spiral that’s going to continue… for all time.. till they split up. no matter how you spin
it’s just never going to fly
RUN – do not walk – do not hesitate
we don’t need you here
I don’t think Michael Easton is out of his league. He’s as much of a soap vet as Finola Huges and Tristan Rogers; always loved Michael. With that said, I’m not a huge fan of Finn and Anna. Like Finn much better with Alexis…but now I’m LOVING the new shrink, Neil, and really hope they go for a pairing with him and Alexis.
Hayden? Can’t stand her; couldn’t stand her then and hate that she’s coming back. I’d like her to drop off Finn’s child and exit left.
Next stop – Y&R!
I dont care, not connected enough to gh core, and acting was so so, compared to stars like maura west, lauraWright, finola Hughes, Nancy Lee grann, genie francis,and soon cynthia watros. Gh has been more focused on it entire history and the hospital, trying to reshape the quatetmaines, and having spencercassadines with w s b in the mix, the mob stuff is kinda just sonny’s occupation now and should be now the haters who said there was to much mob stuff should be happy, but they are the same group that need fireworks an fluff to be entertained. Gh is… Read more »
Maybe she’ll be involved in Ava’s Crimson cover; an advisor??? I’m REALLY hoping Jax, Nina and Maxi’s plan to sabotage Ava backfires and she becomes the new media darling. Oh how I’d love that. Ava needs something good to happen and Carly would be outraged…livid…sneering her way into a miscarriage! Please; that baby cannot happen.
rebecca1, So nice that you think a known murderer should be the toast of the town, while Carly, although being the meddlesome pain in the butt that she is, should lose her baby. Also being pregnant in real life, is like sending bad wishes. Can you please tell me why you think Ava ” needs something good to happen”? The old question of, why do bad things happen to good people, does not apply to Ava. Although she has a strong following, and I attribute this to the actress, I think that everything bad that’s happened to her, has been… Read more »
It’s a show Violet. ..and, am I to understand you’re pregnant? I thought you said you were in your 70s? Or am I remembering that incorrectly…if not, not sure what you’re referring to with your statement, “also being pregnant in real life is like sending bad wishes…” I hate Carly. Couldn’t hate a character more than her. Carly’s way more than a “meddlesome pain in the butt. She’s a witch, a bitch, vindictive, self-righteous, a cheater, took Michael from AJ, still lying that he pushed her down the stairs years ago when she was pregnant, covered up his murder, years… Read more »
Wow, Rebecca. Ava killed Connie in cold blood and got away with it. And while I am no fan of Morgan’s, what she did with his bipolar medication was beyond the pale and it was really hard to watch. Yes, her sadistic actions did lead to Morgan’s death. Moreover she was a horrible mother to Kiki and competed with her every step of the way. I like Maura West a great deal but Ava is just a horrible person. I am no fan of Sonny’s or Carly’s either but for you to use their history to negate Ava’s crimes just… Read more »
Well, hello, Harry. Long time… As said, could care less that Ava killed Connie. Why? Because Connie was no innocent. If she was okay marrying Sonny, who’s killed many a human being “in cold blood” than apparently her value of others lives wasn’t that exemplary. She was engaged to a mob boss! A man who kills for power! A man who shot Dante, (albeit he didn’t know that he was his son at the time) in cold blood..same as Ava. For the same reasons. Dante had dirt on him since he was working undercover and Sonny wasn’t going to let… Read more »
One more thing, Harry. I honestly think you don’t quite get Ava. She’s not a “horrible” person. Even Maura West has laughed and seems perplexed when some viewers think she’s “evil” and didn’t love her daughter. And some fans blamed her for Kiki’s death and said she wanted it. Maura’s reaction? “Preposterous!” Ava is not “horrible.” Most of our characters are flawed; Sonny slept with Ava who Morgan, his son, was in love with. Carly stole Tony from her mother. Sam slept with Rick while he was married to Alexis AND while she had lung cancer! Liz slept with Lucky’s… Read more »
Reality of AJ’s death is that Ava was far more responsible for it than Sonny was. Sure, Sonny happened to be holding the gun when it went off. But it was Ava’s gun, and she had already pulled the trigger, but the gun jammed up on her. You would think a Jerome could afford a better gun than a $1.98 Wal Mart special, for Hell’s sake! Sonny picked up the gun and it went off. He probably didn’t even have to do much with it. The round was in the chamber. Laws of physics say it had to go somewhere.… Read more »
Actually, Sonny shot him. Point blank. As I recall AJ turned around, hands up in the air and begged Sonny to believe him…to no avail. It is because of that, and the guilt Sonny felt for breaking his promise to Michael to not kill AJ (who told him that AJ was set up) that after AJ’s death Sonny began to see AJ’s ghost. Yes; at that time Ava was not a fav of mine because I was a big AJ fan and hated that she set him up. But the bottom line is Sonny hated AJ for years, threatened him… Read more »
Oh, for the record. I don’t think that hoping a FICTIONAL, as in MAKE BELIEVE “person”…a character on a TV show, loses her FICTIONAL, as in MAKE BELIEVE baby is like sending “bad wishes.” LOL.
rebecca1 I wasn’t even going to bother getting into this with you, as we are so opposite in our ideas. First of all unless you are on another planet, you know darn well I was referring to Laura Wright who is pregnant in real life. I just felt that wishing someone to lose their baby, while on screen when the actress is really pregnant was in poor taste. You were right about one thing though. You thought it was laughable because I noted that Ava killed Connie in cold blood, and you replied that she only did it because Connie… Read more »
Violet Lemm…I haven’t been on this site for about a year…maybe three visits including these last few days. Last I was..we were friendly on here so I don’t know where all this hostility is coming from and frankly, at this point with your nasty replies; I could care less. I didn’t know who you meant was pregnant because LAURA WRIGHT IN NOT PREGNANT! No one would know what you were talking about; it wasn’t even a thought in my mind because I repeat, Laura Wright is not pregnant in real life. I was talking only about “Carly” a fictional character.… Read more »
rebecca 1
I feel like I am beating a dead horse here but, oh what the hell! First an apology. Myself and many others wrongly assumed that L.W was indeed pregnant.
Secondly, I apologize for being “hostile and nasty” for calling out a killer, who is also a bitch. My final apology is for ever trying to communicate with you.
I tried several times to respond to your over-the-top hostile comments to me over nothing…from my liking beards on men to liking Ava to not wanting Carly to have a baby. Why you went off the deep end is beyond me; but check your lunacy at the door. Thanks!

Stars React to Alec Baldwin Fatally Shooting Cinematographer Halyna Hutchins & Injuring Director, Joel Souza, In Prop Gun Mishap On Set of ‘Rust’
UPDATED: Over the last 24 hours, the entertainment world has been stunned, by the horrific incident that took place on the set of the western drama Rust, while it was shooting scenes in New Mexico.
What is known is that Alec Baldwin (Ex-The Doctors, Knots Landing) discharged a prop gun that killed Director of Photography, Halyna Hutchins and injured director, Joel Souza. The film also stars Frances Fisher (Ex-Edge of Night) and Jensen Ackles (Ex-Days of our Lives). Baldwin is also a producer on the film.

According to Variety, the prop gun contained a “live single round,” according to an email sent by IATSE Local 44 to its membership.
On Friday, Alec Baldwin made a statement via Twitter on his Hilaria and Alec Baldwin Foundation Twitter feed, expressing: “There are no words to convey my shock and sadness regarding the tragic accident that took the life of Halyna Hutchins, a wife, mother and deeply admired colleague of ours. I’m fully cooperating with the police investigation to address how this tragedy occurred and am in touch with her husband, offering my support to him and his family. My heart is broken for her husband, their son, and all who knew and loved Halyna.”
Yesterday, The Sante Fe Sheriff’s Departments originally shared that “Hutchins, 42, and Souza, 48 were shot when a prop firearm was discharged by Alec Baldwin. Ms. Hutchins was transported, via helicopter, to University of New Mexico Hospital where she was pronounced dead by medical personnel. Mr. Souza was transported by ambulance to Christus St. Vincent Regional Medical center where he was undergoing treatment for his injuries. This investigation remains open and active. No charges have been filed in regard to this incident. Witnesses continue to be interviewed by detectives.”
This morning, Frances Fisher revealed in a twitter conversation with Patricia Arquette, that director Joel Souza had been released from the hospital. Meanwhile, photographs of a distraught Baldwin emerged following the shooting.

The news of the Baldwin prop gun incident, isn’t the first time something like this has happened. Jon-Erik Hexum was killed on October 18, 1984, on the set of the TV show Cover Up when he accidentally shot himself in the head with a gun loaded with blanks. Then, in 1993, Brandon Lee, the son of martial arts legend Bruce Lee, died from a prop gun accident on the set of The Crow by a cast member.
As the news made its way through the entertainment community and mainstream news, several soap stars shared their reactions to the fatal shooting accident.
General Hospital’s Jon Lindstrom (Kevin/Ryan) expressed: “Feeling so sad for everyone involved in the tragedy on the #RustMovie set. I do know the film was staffed with experienced, thoughtful professionals. Please, let’s wait until we have the facts. Nothing positive will come from passing judgement or casting aspersions before then.”
General Hospital and Dynasty’s Emma Samms (Holly, Fallon) shared on her friend Jon-Erik Hexum’s death: This AWFUL tragedy on #Rust is unfathomable to me. If all on-set protocols were being adhered to, how, on earth, could it have happened? After what happened to Brandon Lee and my dear friend Jon-Erik Hexam, the firearm protocols became incredibly strict. I was told (when I was with him at the hospital afterwards) that Jon-Erik had been working with a completely empty gun all morning. A blank (still very dangerous) was loaded and then immediately there was a delay. Exhausted, he was allowed to fall asleep – loaded gun in hand. hey woke him, but there was immediately another delay. Jon-Erik put the gun to his head, forgetting it now contained a blank, (because he had just woken up) and jokingly pulled the trigger. He was not the kind of person to play around with a loaded gun. #fortherecord”
We will continue to post reactions and update this story.
What are your thoughts on the fatal shooting on the set of Rust? Comment below. How can this not happen again, so everyone is safe in this working environment when ‘dangerous’ props are called for or used to make a movie or a TV show?
