Ellen Travolta Makes Another Return to General Hospital
If General Hospital’s Chase (Josh Swickard) and Brook Lynn’s (Amanda Setton) nuptials are on, you didn’t think Grandma Gloria Cerullo would miss out on the festivities, now did you?
Casting news from Soap Opera Digest reveals that Ellen Travolta is back taping scenes that will air the week of May 13th on the ABC daytime drama series. When viewers learned that Carmine Cerullo, was also on his way back to Port Charles, now in the face and body of actor George Russo, it only made sense that Grandma Gloria would join Grandpa Cerullo. Look for them both mid-May.
As most people know, Ellen is the older sister to John Travolta. She first make appearances as Gloria back on GH in the mid-90s. Most recently, she returned to the Quartermaine mansion to meet up with daughter, Lois (Rena Sofer) and granddaughter Brook Lynn for Thanksgiving in Port Charles in 2023. Michael Fairman TV interviewed Rena Sofer and Amanda Setton late last year where they shared what it had been liking working with Ellen, who remains very close to Sofer in real-life.

Amanda shared: “We fell in love immediately. What’s crazy is my maternal grandmother was Grandma Gloria. I had her till I was 30 and we were so close. She was really like a second mom to me. So, when I got this script and I’m reading “Grandma Gloria”, it was so bizarre. And then in meeting Ellen, she looks like my grandma – same haircut, same high cheekbones. It really did feel like I had a few days with my grandma. It was very, very special for me. Ellen is sweet, prepared, professional, talented and funny to boot. So, it was one of the best weeks I’ve had at work. I hope she comes back. My fingers are crossed.”

Now, we can’t imagine Brook Lynn and Chase’s wedding day to be smooth sailing, in fact, expect just the opposite, but could it be Grandma Gloria who is ultimately the hero or the calming voice of reason for any pre-wedding jitters? Stay tuned.
So, glad to know that Ellen Travolta will be back for Brook Lynn and Chase’s big day? Comment below.
So the bride will have both parents, a stepmother and 3 grandparents (unless Larry Ashton pulls a surprise).
Will the groom have his mother? They finally mentioned her the other day but no indication if she’ll be at the wedding.
I can’t find any mention of it online, but I swear upon a pile of souls that I read something about Kim Delaney being involved in a Haley Pullos type of DUI situation, and that’s why her recast Jackie Templeton disappeared and has rarely been mentioned since then.
Always thought it was crazy to pick a random character who had been AWOL for 40 years and bring her back as Chase’s mom AND Finn’s ex-girlfriend in any case.
Now, on the other horn, GH did manage to get Elizabeth Taylor to show up for a wedding back in 1981. Maybe they can get Demi Moore to put in an appearance? Obviously there’s a better chance of a blizzard here in Hell tomorrow than there is of her ever returning as a permanent or even long term recurring character. But for a one or two day cameo? Who knows?
Granted, this wedding won’t be anywhere near the “event” that Luke & Laura’s wedding was, and I have a bad feeling it might end in a total disaster that has nothing to do with the bride or groom, given the recent trend of the writing.
I was thinking the same thing about Kim Delaney. I thought I had read she was involved in a drunk driving incident fairly recently, which is a shame. I loved her so much when she played Jenny on AMC.
Demi would be a dream, but at least she talks fondly of her career start on GH.
If not Delaney, there’s other soap vets that can fill Jackie’s shoes. Fiona Hutchinson would be ideal.

GENERAL HOSPITAL: Tristan and Britt Continue to Have Snarky Runs-Ins: Do You Feel an On-Screen Spark?

On the Tuesday, July 21 episode of General Hospital, the new cardiac surgeon in town, Dr. Tristan Rogers, played by recent cast addition Dean Geyer, once again had a confrontation with Britt (Kelly Thiebaud). This time while at the hospital.
In the scenes, Britt arrived to have a meeting to hopefully get her job back. However, she was not happy to learn from her new pal, Dr. Lucas Jones (Van Hansis) that Tristan is the new surgeon on staff at GH!
Britt informs Lucas she is on the edge because she has to meet with Stella (Vernee Watson) and Elizabeth (Rebecca Herbst) to see if they would reinstate her. Lucas warns her to try to be humble. Immediately after that, Tristan sees Britt. He informs her that her room at Bobbie’s is available again as he is moving out and to the Metro Court which is more to his liking and style.

BRITT GETS REINSTATED WITH CONDITIONS
The two throw barbs at each other when Britt finds out how Carly supposedly helped Tristan to get the room at the hotel. Lucas pulled Tristan away for a patient consult to ease the snark between the two doctors.
In the meeting, Stella and Elizabeth decide to give Britt an opportunity to explain her actions. Britt then has to apology for locking Elizabeth in the closet so she could flee the country with Rocco. Stella and Elizabeth also note how she faked her own death and the list of bad behavior and choices she has exhibited in the past year alone.
When Elizabeth and Stella ask, why they should rehire her? Britt says because she is an excellent doctor, which Elizabeth agrees with and gives Britt props for saving the life and bringing baby Phoebe into the world when Delilah died.
Ultimately, Britt is hired back with a six-month probationary period with a laundry list of additional responsibilities such as weekend shifts, working with the children, and more.
Meanwhile, Lucas invites Tristan to join the GH softball team to get to know people and they have a game tonight. Just then, Elizabeth came up with the idea that one of Britt’s additional duties was to be the new equipment manager for the team. In that moment, Tristan and Britt realize they have to see more of each other, when they already can’t stand each other (or so they say).
So, do you think that Tristan and Britt will soon be a new couple, especially after Jason sees Britt this week after his return from captivity? While Britt may hope things can pick right back up with Jason, will she be in for a devastating letdown, clearing the path down the line for a romance with Tristan? Do you think there are on-screen sparks already between Britt and Tristan, or do you feel like its completely feeling forced? Let us know via the comment section below.

GENERAL HOSPITAL: Kayden Brenna Tokarski Makes Her Debut; Is Scout Working with Drew To Bring Down Willow?

On the Monday, July 20th episode of General Hospital, 16-year-old, Kayden Brenna Tokarski made her debut as the new Scout Cain; the daughter of Drew Cain (Cameron Mathison) and the late Sam McCall (Kelly Monaco).
In Kayden’s first scenes she appeared with Katelyn MacMullen (Willow Cain), Jane Elliot (Tracy Quartermaine) and Daytime Emmy nominee, Amanda Setton (Brook Lynn Quartermaine).
When Tokarski entered the GH canvas on-screen, here’s what went down: Willow and Scout showed up at the Quartermaine stables. After Willow exits, Scout tells Tracy she was hoping she would allow her to use the lake on the property for a swim practice.

SCOUT WANTS TRACY TO ALLOW DREW ON THE QUARTERMAINE BOATHOUSE PROPERTY
Suddenly, Brook Lynn enters and with a wink-wink to the audience as she notes how grownup Scout looks! Now, Scout begins to explain to BLQ and Tracy that she has been training for a charity swim and plans to donate the money she raises for breast cancer research in honor of Monica.
Tracy being Tracy know something is up and asks Scout point blank, “What’s the catch?” Scout pipes up that there is one catch: She wants Tracy to let Drew watch her swim. Tracy agrees to allow Drew onto Quartermaine property for Scout. When Scout exits, Tracy makes a remark to Brook Lynn that Scout is definitely acting like a Quartermaine.
But do you think there is more to this? Is Scout onto or in on the fact that Drew will soon be seen able to speak and move? Could Scout be on to Willow’s machinations and be the one who actually trips her up and Willow’s house of cards finally comes tumbling down around her? Stay tuned.
THE AGED-UP SCOUT
On her GH debut, Kayden Brenna Tokarski spoke to Soap Opera Digest on what concerns the GH faithful might have or the older version of Scout. “I know that this age-up and recast was shocking to many. I think many people are concerned that she’s going to be very bratty, but I think just the opposite. I think she’s a lovely teenager who’s navigating a lot of things in life, but she’s a problem-solver and always trying to keep the peace and help others,” shared Kayden.
The young actress also added, “I truly hope that people enjoy watching Scout’s storyline and seeing some new relationships in her life that are a little more grown-up.”
So this begs the question: Do you think the new version of Scout Cain will be scheming like a Quartermaine with the adventuress traits of her mother Sam, and the often unscrupulousness of her dad, Drew? Do you think she will be helping Drew destroy Willow? Let us know your thoughts and send your welcomes to Kayden via the comment section below.
