GENERAL HOSPITAL: “He’s The Most Hated Man In Port Charles”
Shiloh (Coby Ryan McLaughlin) has gone off the rails! And this week on General Hospital, the cult leader who also made Franco’s (Roger Howarth) brain disappear is on the loose, and taking hostages along the way such as baby Wiley; the little boy he thinks is his son! But we all know that’s not the truth, either!
In ABC and GH’s latest promo for the series, everyone is worried, and wants to stop the guy from doing any more harm to the good people of Port Charles and they state that clearly Shiloh is the most hated man in the town of Port Charles.
On Monday’s episode, Shiloh already left Bobbie (Jackie Zeman) by the the side of the road and took Wiley. He has blackmailed Peter (Wes Ramsey) for “moolah” …. or he will spill the beans on Peter’s involvement with Helena Cassadine and the original kidnapping of Drew. He is already on sexual assault charges from women for their initiation into the “Dawn of Days” trust.
Meanwhile, Dev (Ashton Arbab) is in the wrong place at the wrong time as he is trying to get out of town and hanging out at the ‘Haunted Star’, when, yup!, Shiloh and Wiley show up. As Dev tries to call Jason (Steve Burton), he instead gets a hold of Sam (Kelly Monaco), and before he can relay all of his warnings to her, he is knocked out. Next, Sam shows up at the ‘Haunted Star’ and finds Shiloh with Wiley standing over Dev with a gun.

In the teaser, a shot is fired, but who fired it? And will this be the official end of Shiloh’s reign of terror? Will there be a murder mystery? Share your thoughts via the comment section below!
Great actor and would love to see him portray a better character in the future on GH. This Shiloh character was was terrible though. I’m glad that cult thing is wrapping up. It was a stupid storyline.
Agree with you 100%
Please let this be Ramsey’s exit. He’s like an anchor around the necks of Port Charles’ residents. He can’t act, is creepy, and is a wimp!
We can’t say goodbye to Shiloh just yet…his face is in the opening credits.
What’s his face got to do with anything? Billy Miller’s face was in the opening credits then when he was off the show, his face was gone. Same with Garren Stitt and Michelle Stafford The faces change every day.
I was being funny.
Cerberus is patiently waiting for his new chew toy. Come on down, Shiloh….
Hopefully, you will be seeing him soon.There are four others I ‘d like to see bite the dust. I just hope you don’t get too overcrowded there.
Go away, Shiloh–forever!
Shiloh is leaving and it can’t be soon enough.
Wrap up Shilou Wrap up the baby switch. Wrap up Peter Wrap up Valentine and Sasha. Bring back Nicholas and a new Drew. Let Franco be Franco
I wasn’t a fan of the cult storyline. I thought it was cheaply done. Coby, though, is a good actor. He carried out the storyline well; although, the writing was atrocious. Wes Ramsey, he just needs to go. Laura Wright needs to quit her job as his beard. She needs a new focus, other than propping up her untalented boyfriend.
I LOVE Shiloh!!
He is the best thing that has happened to GH in a long time,
He keeps me awake
He is an awesome character;
not a Ray Gardner and not close the other great bad guys Billy Clyde, but Shiloh is all we had since GH became a bad version of The Waltons.
Fact; it’s always been the dark evil bad guys that put the UMMMMPH in a soap, without them a soap is dead in many ways..
Coby is a great actor, he was given a 3 year contract but the Idiots had to kill him off and rid of a great talent.
I dunno- GH wants us to be bored to death by taking every single exciting character out.
Soaps need BAD GUYS!!
GH has become much like a weird monastery thing, all goodie goodies, that’s it all wimpy weenies.
Aww, su, no you don’t! The Walton’s you say? I must say I don’t think of John Boy when I watch GH–EVER! 🙂
suOOO
Yes Su, he does make a good bad guy.but enough is enough, and you know there is another one waiting in the wings to give us another bad guy, so don’t give up hope.
Hey, Suoo, you constantly remind us of how young you are and how all the classic soaps are before your time. How do you know about Bily Clyde, Ray Gardner and The Waltons? BINGO! No, I do not mean you need to run back to your Bingo game in senior rec room but I do mean to say BINGO! You are much older than you pretend to be. Which is okay, but I don’t understand the pretense.
Hi Harry 🙂
you must have read me commenting on my granny soap guru neighbor.
My neighbor is alone and hasn’t missed her soaps in half a decade,
I invite her over for soap nights, she tells of the old days.
many times she had told of Gardner and Clyde.. I have 65” tv I go to youtube and search and play everything there on the two villains and many more for her.
She loves it!! and I’m happy to take her back to the good ‘ol days via youtube.
the Gardner guy raped a nurse! we don’t have that nowadays.
And, after watching those two- Gardner and Clyde, they were magnificent bad guys, outstanding!
the ones we have now are creampuffs in comparison.
00hh and she has tapes of them,and many others, the times they were on that soap.
I don’t have a VCR (an antique) but hers still works! unbelievable, it may be a newer one dunno..
And she has excitingly had me over to watch.
I’ve never asked her age but she must be mid 70’s?
She’s all alone so I don’t mind soping with her its fun, actually.
Coby is doing such a fantastic job of playing one of the ceepiest characters I’ve seen as of late, save for Thomas Forrester (Matthew Atkinson) over on B&B.
But I do agree, this story can’t wrap up soon enough.
Michele…”Yes” Shiloh and Thomas….two of the creepiest.
Michael Teale
Oh you are so right about Thomas Forrester. When M.A was on Y&R as Summer’s husband, I never dreamed he could play a part like this one. It got so bad for me, especially with the little boy, etc., I had to stop watching for a while. It was too upsetting. That is another SL I can’t wait to wrap up. I hoped it was over when Thomas went over the cliff, but I was wrong and he’s still causing trouble.
I bet we both have an idea who Katie’s kidney donor will be, right?
I’ve been waiting for a whodunit involving Shiloh. Unfortunately, the trailer seems to show a female pair of hands holding the gun and thus, eliminating all the males. I really hope they don’t cop out and make it willow’s mom, out of jail on stroll, who pulled the trigger. Having a minor character pull the trigger would lessen the impact. I would love to see Shiloh get what’s coming to him, but figure there’s much, much more to play out in this saga.
Rodd
I was thinking it would be Nelle.
Welp, it was…SPOILER ALERT if you haven’t seen it…surprise, surprise! It was girl wonder and a flare gun. That explains the gun’s funny color. But I don’t believe for a moment Shiloh’s dead. November sweeps are coming.
I really didn’t care for the whole Dawn of Day cult story, and how long they’ve dragged it out. And I mean, the fact that he and so many characters constantly break out of prison so easily in Port Charles is one of the most ridiculous and overused plot devices on this show going back many years.
But I will give a lot of credit to Coby Ryan McLaughlin for his performance, he definitely succeeded in making Shiloh a character that I loved to hate. An absolutely smarmy, evil lowlife bastard with no redeeming qualities, and we know that those characters don’t usually have a long shelf life in soaps. Unless you’re an all-time iconic villain like Cesar Faison or Helena Cassadine, and even they eventually finally met their demise (Or have they, lol). I love a good villain, always have.
My thoughts about the storyline aside, Coby did a great job in the role. Not sure what the requirements are for the category, or if he’d be eligible in terms of how many episodes he’s been on, but I could see him potentially making GH 3 for 3 in the Guest Actor category at the Emmys next year, following in the footsteps of Vernee Watson and Patricia Bethune.
I have mixed feelings about this storyline. I have never liked it. I do think Coby has done a great job in playing Shiloh. However there was an author of a book in my bookstore over the weekend with his new book about having been captured and part of a cult at a young age. Somehow he escaped and has been on the cult’s hit list since then. I told him about GH’s Shiloh story, but hadn’t realized how real these cults were. So while I didn’t like this story, I guess it has alerted us to them and all of their horrible things they can do…and worse things listening to the author. Must admit I got a really eerie feeling talking with him, and even when he shook my hand. And coincidentally while I’m writing this comment the coyotes are howling in the conservation area adjacent to my home right now which adds to the eerie. Shiver! But I do wonder if the effects will truly ever leave the author even though he is free.
Awesome actor!
Get rid of Shiloh he is getting boring and so are the writers they need to get new ones this is ridiculous that Michael don’t know that that Wiley is his son Brad needs to go to prison and stay there
this storyline was based on a real cult/pyramid scheme court case going on. NXIVM – look it up. the sacrifices, the sex, the branding… its all there. maybe gh cant write an ending until real case is wrapped up.
Christy…thank you. This is the first recollection I have of the real-life NXIVM being mentioned in this forum. It’s why I started watching GH again, having gotten frustrated with Y & R, because an article about the horrifying NXIVM events referenced the parallel storyline on GH. Coby Ryan McLaughlin was dreamy on his short Y & R stint, and his nuanced performance as Shiloh conveyed (to me, at least) how people could fall under his spell. Kudos to this talented, sexy actor. “Boring”? Not in my book. Equal parts smarmy and charming. Though I will concede that the writers –who obviously did their research–did seem to wrap things up rather hastily. Maybe because so much audience reaction (like these I’m reading on MFTV) have been so negative. Or for the reasons you mentioned, Christy. Personally, I would have liked to have seen more of Shiloh’s “charming” side rather than rush to making him a standard soap villain. But the offshoot is, I’ve grown to love GH again as a result…on my daily DVR replacing Y & R. Lots working in Port Charles!
I saw him at the GH fan club event last July. Steve Burton held the mic and I told them, you know Shiloh had been on the show long enough everyone wanted to throttle him (Steve said, like me!) and then I saw you (coby) on Ncis and his character there got nabbed off the sidewalk and tossed in a van, and i was like YES!! We all laughed. Coby laughed and said he wasn’t sure if anyone saw that.. and hey, I think I was a good guy on that show… I said I didnt care. I was in need of Shiloh getting payback, so I enjoyed it, even if it was a different show.
A while later we walked thru the doorway at the same time, I looked up to see who I was walking with and said to him, Oh its you again, grrrr! and faked a fist at him. we both laughed.
Satan
Shiloh’s finally gone. Let us know when he gets there just to be sure.
Yeah, we had one Hell of a party down here last night to welcome him to Hell.
Cerberus has never been happier with a new chew toy!
Yeah, wait until the most hated man in the United States is descended for an eternal stay. Yes, I am talking about the orange one. As Shiloh said to Jason, “God, I am sick of you.”

GENERAL HOSPITAL Preview: Serena Sets Her Sights on Michael; Jason’s Emotional Exit from the Mob
This week on all-new episodes of General Hospital, new and old motivations come into play with dangerous consequences. According to the just released GH video spoilers video for the week of August 3-7, a bailiff calls out, “All rise!”
Now it’s Isaiah (Sawandi Wilson) vs. Curtis (Donnell Turner), as the surgeon is suing the owner of the Savoy for assault that ruined is ability to operate. At the end of the day, which of these men has enough evidence against the other? Portia (Brook Kerr) is by Isaiah’s side, while Jordan (Tanisha Harper) is with Curtis.
Next, Lucy (Lynn Herring) has a plan to get the controlling shares of Deception away from Michael (Rory Gibson). She wants her daughter, Serena (Kelly Kruger) to seduce Michael.

Later, there is a small baggie containing three blue pills. Nina (Cynthia Watros) ask Willow (Katelyn MacMullen), “What did you do?” We also see Michael asking the same thing of Jacinda (Paige Herschell). Leading into this week, viewers know that Willow doesn’t want the former escort anywhere near her children, Amelia and Wiley. Is this how she stops her, or is Jacinda up to old tricks and wants to frame Willow? Remember when Jacindsa drugged Drew (Cameron Mathison)? Stay tuned.
Finally, in the pick-up from last Friday’s cliffhanger, an emotional Jason (Steve Burton) continues to tell Sonny (Maurice Benard) that he cannot work for him anymore. Sonny ask, “So that’s it? You’re Out?” We fade to black.

Vincent Pastore of ‘Sopranos’ Fame and ‘General Hospital’s’ Maximus Giambetti Dies at 80
Vincent Pastore, best known for his memorable role as Salvatore “Big Pussy” Bonpensiero on HBO’s The Sopranos has passed away.
The veteran actor was found dead on August 1st in his home in the Bronx, New York. Pastore was 80-years-old. The cause of death is yet to be determined.
As well as his role on The Sopranos, many soap fans will recall he played multiple smaller roles on the beloved One Life to Live from 1995 and 2004. However, in 2008, he landed the short-term role as Maximus Giambetti on General Hospital.
PASTORE WANTED TO BE ON GENERAL HOSPITAL
Maximus was the mobster father of Sonny Corinthos’ (Maurice Benard) bodyguards: Max (Derk Cheetwood) and Milo (Drew Cheetwood)
According to Soap Opera Digest, Pastore told Soaps In Depth back in 2009, after appearing in a SOAPnet promotional campaign as a celebrity fan of General Hospital: “‘I’d love to be on the show. So they called up GH’s casting director (Mark Teschner) and Bobby (Robert Guza Jr. ex-head writer, GH) and they wrote me in!”
Pastore was a huge General Hospital fan from way back, who at one point told producers that he would watch the ABC soap opera while working in bars and nightclubs in the 70s and 80s.
Throughout his decades long career, Pastore appeared in films including: Goodfellas, Carlito’s Way and Men of Respect, The Jerky Boys: The Movie and the 1996 HBO TV movie Gotti.
In TV, besides The Sopranos, Pastore’s credits included: Law & Order, The Practice, Son of the Beach, Queens Supreme, Hawaii Five-0, Wu-Tang: An American Saga, plus the miniseries The Last Don II. Most recently, Vincent was a series regular on Gravesend and guest starred on Yellowjackets.
Pastore is survived by his daughter, Renee, son-in-law and granddaughter.
