After this long dragged out jason story JASAM fans deserve a jasam Christmas!
Whatever road the writers are taking where Jason is concerned, I hope they do it by Christmas, Beth. Whether with Sam or not….just for something, right? There are so many loose ends; Robin’s rescue; Hayden’s investigating her shooting etc.
What about that Johnny, Beth. That smile of his is disconcertingly blinding. Soooo good-looking. But, there’s always a ‘but’….Inasmuch as I do not like Valerie; I am not liking where this story is going. Is Lulu that cold-hearted? Is she trying to have the girl killed? Lulu is losing it.
…..should read:…just do something.
hi CeeCee..
I think the Lulu, Val and Donate story is lame, blah and stupid-
I personally could care case about their love problems, really don’t care.
@su.
I most definitely agree with you, my dear friend. This stupid triangle/ quadrangle (Dante, Lulu Valerie; and possibly Dillon) is so freakishly vapid. Boring as all get-out!!
Jason is sick of the women lying and manipulating him. He gives up women altogether and begins a tempestuous affair with Nikolas Cassadine. Hayden decides that she has had enough shenanigans with Mr Cassadine and leaves him for Michael Quartermaine Corinthos. They both have had enough lies and scandal to burn down the barn. Jordan decides that being a police officer/commissioner is too much and starts a Mary Kay line of her own. She begins a relationship with Dante because he can do better than Lulu and Valerie. Kiki decides she wants a real man and goes after Sonny, which angers Carly but she eventually accepts it and starts up with Paul Hornsby because even though he is out to destroy her soon to be ex Sonny, he does things to her that no one can quite explain. Morgan discovers he isn’t bi-polar afterall but rather just a little odd. He deals with his character flaws and begins an affair with Olivia. Ava quits the mob and becomes a nun and gives Avery to Julian and Alexis to raise. Laura needs new adventure so she takes over Ava’s art gallery and starts running an illegal brothel with Franco as her main escort. Nina and Maxie start a new modeling agency and garner the attention of the New York Fashion elite. Liz gives up on relationships and starts writing romance novels and drinking way too much Kombucha Tea. Nathan West leaves the police department and becomes a self help guru with the medical advice coming from his Mom, Dr. Liesl Orbrecht. And Sam? Well Sam has lost all the men..so she starts a daycare center for all the neglected children of GH. These are just some of my plans for GH when I take over as head writer in 2016
Now thats a GH i would watch…lol
Okay then….will you be killing Patrick off, Mateo? Why else would he venture off with Anna and Robert to rescue Robin?
One more thing? Please don’t allow Sonny’s ‘greaser’ hands find their way on Kiki!!!!
Patrick will move to Cuba and start a new practice there to celebrate new relations with the US. Robin will join him but will stay away from medical issues and just stay home and raise Emma, cook empenadas and learn Spanish. And if Kiki let Morgan’s, Michael’s and other greasy hands touch her why not Sonny. Don’t h8, tolerate!
@Mateo.
That’s funny. Good motto: don’t hate tolerate. Thing is, Mateo, I never use the word hate. I usually say, ‘can’t stand’. Lol. ‘Hate’ is not a nice word. You must be a very tolerant human being. I do not tolerate what Sonny represents.
I do love the idea of Robin in the kitchen and in the role of domesticity. Too funny.
Mike asks Sap to marry him…bah, humbug…Franco and Nina are a waste of filler time-they are on their own; dont feel connected to the rest of the show…Why is Nik such a wuss-he can fight Jason on equal terms…hope Jason dumps both Liz and Sam…bye bye Patrick and Robin!!!…Glad to see Monica on a little more…the Christmas party should include the March Of The Wooden Soldier-staring Nathan!!!…
Did you read my mind Jim? I feel ya on all of the above.
Bite your tongue, jimh! At least on that first one…..I agree with you on all the rest!
i already do a lot of biting when Saps on…it helps with the pain of watching her…lol
Please let Sabrina tell the truth. I had enough of all these insecure women in soaps who think they need to lie because they might lose the man. What is this the 18th century where women without men were seen as a failure and their economical well being depended on the man providing for her? Come on, soap writers, this is a new day and we ladies know that if a man will not love our truth, he isn’t worth keeping.
And men today aren’t so stupid about women’s bodies that they can’t figure out how far long a woman is to tell if they are in the running to be the baby daddy. I realize much of this silliness is because they decided to write the actress real life pregnancy into the show — give me the good old days when they used handbags and pillows to disguise the actress’s baby bump, to avoid the need to come up with these dumb stories to explain a pregnancy.
Sabrina could go to Maxie, Nina, Monica, Tracie, Laura, Alexis, and of course Felix to have her help them decide what would be the perfect handbag (isn’t that level of focus on fashion the basis for the bold and the beautiful)…except that dramatic narrative would be dragged out through both february and november sweeps so there would be the longest pregnancy in the history of soaps (next to the drawn out gestation of who’s is in Jakeson-head–and I predict when he becomes integrated (and erika slezak could be brought on to talk about having different personalities and they could triple or quintuple date toward that end) it will be…drumroll please….JAr JAr Binks!
Does anyone care about Sabrina? yawn. Make it stop.
I agree. I like the actress, but the character is boring. So is MIchael. I actually like her with Carlos better.
I do not give a care about any of the stupid love gone wrong stories, they are boring nothing but begging to be love by one or the other..
Couple love stories went out looooong ago..(chek the now media)
All, the top 10 tv shows do not have love couples breaking up getting together and putting us through their love problems all that mess died in the 90’s and nobody cares about that junk.. (Scandal is the only one but that couple is perilous and involved in heavy dangerous plot driven drama)
80%? of all the blockbuster movies had no love couples, that is 80’s media and not many would pay to see love couples..
Nobody cares or wants couples junk and nobody is writing/producing it but the soap operas that can’t pull out of the 20th century..
((RC was modern and with the time of 21st media,, no matter who didn’t care for him, him he had the most modern soap.
The great Stephen King never wrote love couples lol ..
You make an excellent point. Couples rebound much quicker now and dont give a crap about lies and deception like they used to. Feelings are feelings but social media is here and it gives us all avenues to recover!
I care about her…when i cant sleep and my sleeping pill isnt working i watch scenes with her on…im out in seconds!!!…lol
lol
J&S always put me to me to sleep..
I would watch Y&R, under them, before bed and honest I would fall asleep lol
J&S are not the right writers for GH.
Their writing style is empty of high drama, intrigue, twists & turns, surprises, they write couples and their love problems..
2013 2014 Y&R was horribly dull and went down to its lowest rating drop, ever under J&S… Their music box story among the others were awful.
I fear for GH .. J&S are writing from the 80’s and people are use to watching 21st century media..
I feel nothing for any of the stories, they all are missing intrigue, the stories are empty. 🙁 🙁
Touche’ again! lol..
Me to except when she falls back into her “Heritage” and rolls her R’s and I wake up real quick!
You and I, Ces, should get together, in a cozy tete-a-tete, and devise ways to make Sabrina stop. To think I really loved and trusted this characters.
Get the coffee ready; I’ll bring the Bailey’s. Ha!
Haha! That sounds like a plan CeeCee! To think I rooted for her to get Patrick & now I just want her to run off with slimeball. Amazing how writers can make you dislike a character! Frankly, I never bought her & Michael as a couple anyway. Where is that Irish cream?
Coming!! On my way!!!!
AND dont forget the pretzels! I’m tellin ya, coffee, a shot of Bailys and munch on some pretzels, YULE thank me!
@Timmm.
HaHa. Cute, my Timmmbo, really cute….YULE. Ok. You’re on; I’ll try YOUR pretzels. Lol.
Michael, Sabrina, Carrrrrrrlos, FF! And Carlos could have been an intersting character but they ruined him when he was attached to Saaaaaabrina! Carlos should have been Lilly’s brother!
Sabrina should just keep her mouth shut about that baby because anybody stoopid enough to forgive Sonny for killing AJ will buy any story she feeds him.
OMG…so funny Alan! And so true!
Hah, good one!
yeah, that’s a good one
from a fan standpoint: his turncoat… back to the Corinthos’ just smarts
there wasn’t even any need for Michael to have shown up at the Quartermaine for the Christmas ep at all
I wish… GH production would take a vested interest… in; Carlos
Jeffrey Vincent Parise… is a must have on the canvas!
I like Michael; with Sabrina
I like Carlos; with Sabrina
I like the interplay… it’s not forced… it’s not expected to be magical… but it’s an intriguing play
Michael… since he’s being propped… this is his best bet and interesting ladylove
Carlos… he’s tantalizingly sinful playful with his words… it’s a sensual overture complete
I certainly don’t want Sabrina and Carlos to ride off in to the sunset…. racial diversity and people of color is a well rounded “show”
I’m certain Tracy knew from the getgo when she saw the ultrasound
LOL
she could tell Michael… but he’s dim
gawd! help me out here… if just one person tells me… it’s ok to be so annoyed at Carly… ugh! if I was Liz… I’d let her have it… blast her… back the expletive up… stay the expletive out of my life…
doesn’t help much that Nicholas at least told Liz… ” you don’t have to explain to anyone ”
what was FUN and holds some promise… dag! did you see that combust ?!?! between Liz and Franco ? hello! stirring loins
at the very least… a new duo to take on… the all mighty drab; Jason, Sam, Carly, Sonny
blech!
GH ! give Nicholas some power play to hold his own… stand toe to toe eye to eye Jason!
Curtis is ooh la la the newbie handsomest , dang it tho… doesn’t he spark with Hayden… saw some generate with Jordan… I’m liking
ps: Maxie and Nina are still ON! LOL come on girls… let’s Amazon and take
Kiki: I have fallen for this recast! all I have to think… would I like to see Kristen Alderson or this lovely sexy new spin, Haley Erin … just like Ava… only with virtue still?
Johnny Z… LOL I like that he told Val… she reminds him of someone…. her own cousin… Lulu
Morgan! I hope this bi-polar stuff turns out to be a DOA ( he left his meds at the breakfast table)…. Morgan.. may be a chutzpa … a ditz ; a dolt ; but he’s enigmatic playboy about town. he’s still the fun one of all the Corinthos blah bunch
Olivia is a HOTTIE
*Christmas ep
*Thanksgiving ep
Liz will rise ; her wherewithall stature will tower
One would think so, Alan, but apparently even Mikey can count to nine (months) and it’s finally dawning on him the numbers just don’t add up to him being the babydaddy…unless “el nino” is of a Guiness World Record setting poundage!
Besides, the jig would be up when Sappy’s baby started rolling his Rs
Looks like Nick goes after Jason.
Free Elizabeth from Jason/Jake finally. Let Sam have him. This past week was Jason’s best dialogue since he came to. Develop Elizabeth’s character.
I think the question that trumps all of the other questions in the article is, “Will anyone care about any of this?” With the exception of the Robin stuff–which I will admit I do care about, but it’s because of residual sentimentality and not because what’s going on is great storytelling–my reaction to all of the questions raised is a big “ho-hum.” (To be fair, that problem goes back to before the current headwriters, but I think it’s become more pronounced and more problematic since they took over. OK, yes, it’s true, there may be more “romance” now–or whatever the buzzword was that that ABC executive used to characterize the new direction the new headwriters were supposed to be taking the show in–but so far I have found it pretty unengaging.)
Sabrina will lie to Michael as long as she can. When Michael finds out he is not the father he will dump her and Sonny will get revenge. I was happy to see Jason slug Nicholas as he is such a creep! I hope Johnny stays on GH. He is so good looking!
Yeah!! Nik is a creep; and, looks like a perp/perv, to match.
@CeeCee…Hi Sweetie, I’m in total agreement with you.. Nick
is creepy and predatory. Hayden needs to wrap all this up &
quickly… I want her away from him. Her private detective is
gorgeous ❗️❗️❗️
@Fanny.
Hey, Fanny, sweet lady. Too bad about Anika, isn’t it. I do hold firm in thinking that he is somehow under his grandmother’s evil spell. Or, he is not Nik at all.
And, yes….Hayden’s investigator is so grrrrr! Luscious, he is!!!!! Curtis, is it? I think that’s what Jordan called him. Are they siblings? I believe she considers him ‘trouble’.
@Fanny.
Correction: ANIKA?? That’s hilarious! It is supposed to read NIK.
Mm mm Curtis !!! Nick is grossing me out.
Johnny is a charmer and has chemistry with anyone he is acting with. A great talent!
Love Johnny’s smile–and “handsomeness”–BUT it is beneath Lulu to enlist him to stir things up with Valerie. No sympathy for Lulu as she does this–and Laura warned her yesterday. “Mother knows best.”
Jason and Sam–together–yes? Haven’t they been tortured enough?
Robin and Anna and Robert Scorpio–YES! Haven’t we waited long enough???????????
Yeah, Nancy. Same here. I’m all for a little prank, but I don’t like where Lulu’s mind is going.
I agree that not too many of the current story lines have any rooting value.
Michael and Sabrina are boring but I love Carlos so I am happy that he is the baby’s father. He needs to be more incorporated in the story line to add some interest.
I am looking forward to the Robin story line if only to end these constant Robin kidnapping stories where no one bothers to look for her. They are so ridiculous! I hope her and Patrick reunite and leave together with Emma.
I don’t care about Jason getting retribution against Nikolas. Nikolas told Elizabeth the truth about Jason about 1-2 months after he found out with the intention of her telling everyone else. Jason should be getting retribution against the woman who told him she loved him out of one side of her mouth while lying daily out of the other side of her mouth. She deserves to pay for her lies and manipulations as much as Nikolas.
Hayden should be getting retribution against Nikolas for trying to have her killed. Which is too bad because this couple has a ton of chemistry. It was a character assassination to have Nikolas hire a hitman and try to kill a woman just because she was going to reveal the truth. Does he love Liz that much that he was willing to kill to ensure her happiness?
I love Nina and Franco but I want Franco to have his own story like Nina does. And I want to see more of Dr. O!
As Roger Howarth is my favorite actor and the reason I watch, all I wish for Christmas and the New Year is that Franco gets a separate story of his own in which to shine. Perhaps, leading to a triangle with Elizabeth and Nina. It is such a shame to see GH wasting an enormous Roger’s talent for so very long!!!
I love Roger too and agree he should have more story. But I love how they’ve evolved him from his dreadful beginning (the writing, not RH) And…I’m still waiting for Carlos to mow that lawn of a beard!
And I love that Lulu is getting revenge on Valerie! Of course it will come back and bite her in the butt because Johnny will go too far. But its great to have Johnny involved in a story line again.
Valerie does deserve whatever Lulu dishes out (short of violence). Lulu took her in last summer, tried to include her in the Spencer family and Valerie proceeded to become the guest cousin from hell. Started stalking her husband so that every time he turned around, there was Valerie mooning at him with those puppy dog eyes. She is beyond inappropriate and has no respect for boundaries. Paying for her lying, cheating ways may make her think twice the next time she decides to go after someone else’s husband.
Don;t get me wrong, I think that Dante is being a complete pig and deserves to pay as well but I can understand that Lulu doesn’t want to go after him because anything she does could blow back on her son.
I hate how Valerie turns it on LuLu like Liz blames Sam for everything she did! these b*tches need to get real.
@Ces…I hear you❗️❗️❗️Dissolutional Lizzy & Val-Trollope
need too take 5 steps back…before Sam and Lulu LOSE IT
COMPLETELY and take a swing at those pariahs.
I know! And take responsibility for their own actions!
I love your sense of moral indignation, Tatiana! You’ve called it correctly….even though Liz is the “social pariah du jour,” I’m hoping Dante and especially, Val-Chops, are next in line to receive the public cold shoulder….what the heck, can we please just pin a “scarlet letter A” on her and call a spade a spade? About the only thing that could make this sleazy storyline even more unpalatable would be yet another of GH’s long history of unwed–and unnecessary—pregnancies.
I think what bothers me the most about both Liz and Valerie is their sense of superiority. And the fact that neither one thinks they did anything wrong. Liz had the audacity to boohoo to Diane that everyone is against her, tell Jason that she needs him more than his wife and then tell off Sam for outing her. Not one sense of guilt or shame that she lied to the man she loves, to her children and to his family.
And Val telling Lulu that it was her fault that her marriage failed! No sense of shame for sleeping with a married man, the husband of her cousin who gave her shelter and support. And Dante not even trying to make it up to his wife but just keeps betraying her and their vows by continuing to see Valerie.
I think that one or both of these women may be pregnant so these stories will get even more stupid in the weeks to come.
Thank God for YOU, Shay. It’s good to see I am not the only one who sees this as unacceptable behavior.
Oh, I agree. Valerie is posturing wildly with moral indignation. Lizzy, too, but the actress is so good you can see that’s her defense mechanism working in full gear.
Lizzy knows she was wrong but Valerie seems to think she was acting on the side of righteousness rather on the side of her G spot. (I can spell G).
And Dante? He is acting listless and confused—like the 8th grade boy being forced to square dance in gym class. He is acting like he does not have a choice with whom he doesy does.
That’s what I said too, Harry….in a different way? LOL.
I am not happy with Lulu’s intentions towards Valerie. But, I am proud of her not trying to spread ’em at first opportunity. I am also happy with the writers for giving Lulu a modicum of vengeful sexual control.
Whilst I certainly take your point, Tatiana, I can almost (ALMOST….) understand Liz and her fall from grace. She was dealing with a man she had loved and lost, they shared a (once-thought deceased) son and a most epic history….this was her second chance at happiness with him, one she never expected to have in a million years, hence as terribly wrong as her actions have been, she was in a uniquely tempting position to exploit her situation, to say the least!. However, with Val-Chops, she’d barely breezed into town and accepted her family’s gracious hospitality before she set her sights on her own cousin’s man, and decided right then and there that nothing and no one would keep her from her chosen prey….even though it meant not only breaking up a marriage, but a child’s happy home, too. Of course, the slimy Dante was only too pleased to comply with her predatory impulses, so the fact both of them knowingly went into their illicit, adulterous affair with eyes wide open makes them seem worse in my estimation….total scum, in fact! Still, Liz also eventually came to realize she was dallying with a married man who’d left behind a family—unbeknownst to him—therefore I definitely cannot give her a pass either. Both women are of most questionable character, perhaps just in differing degrees….yet for those of us who witnessed the past romance between Nurse Webber and Jason, there is a somewhat conflicted feeling regarding her behavior….not condonement, that’s for sure, but a slightly sympathetic acknowledgement for why she did what she did. Having said that, I’ve always enjoyed Sam and Liz in relatively equal measure….each has their own strengths and downfalls…neither is a complete angel nor devil, but interesting, varied shades of grey when it comes to their personal makeups. Both have acted abominably in the past during their individual quests to land Jason, and even though Sam previously prevailed, and by rights, should have had her husband—and Danny’s father —- back by default, I fear Ms. Morgan is now going to do deleterious damage to her own reputation in her desperate desire for a reconciliation with her beloved spouse….neither Liz nor she shall emerge from this fight for Jason’s heart morally unscathed. I truly hope that in Liz’s case, there will be no pregnancy to further complicate this issue, but as for Val-Chops??? I would bet dollars to donuts that she will soon be with child and fully expect her to play the bambino card to the hilt to force a more permanent union with Dante. So although I have had it up to here with way too many pregnancies of convenience on this show—particularly Sappy’s two ill-advised ones—I would not be at all surprised were the Val-debeast to show up with a positive ept result sooner rather than later. Just what Port Charles doesn’t need…another baby born in less than auspicious circumstances!
I have seen lots of support and sympathy for Liz because of her past romance with Jason. I don’t have the same inclinations because I was never a fan of that romance. They were never right for each other so I could never root for them. I always loved Liz with Lucky and I will probably never forgive her for cheating on Lucky with Nik and decimating his life.
I do feel that Liz is going to come out of this smelling like a rose, at worst (as she always does) or with Jason by her side, at best. Either way she does not deserve a happy ending. At least not until she stops defending her actions and takes responsibility for them.
I don’t have the same feeling towards Val. She needs to go away. No redeeming qualities that I can see. And I’m not sure how they can redeem Dante. His actions have been reprehensible.
I think Alexis and Julian will tie,the knot
I pray to God Jason and,Sam will be,a,family
Don’t put Hayden with Jason
I have said this before, Kaffen; and, I am not disagreeing or agreeing with you. But, wouldn’t it be soooo far-out if Jason and Hayden were to become an item? Think about it! No one would expect such an outcome. The GH IT couple. Don’t you see the comedic, in-your-face irony in that? I would absolutely relish and revel in that. I would bathe and bask in the aftermath of such twisted sense of humor.
Alexis gets engaged…. can tell by the more matured hand… actually was hoping Maxie….maybe next year
New writers J&S have melted Julian and Alexis into the dull wall..
They were hot , they had love and lust a great combination for a soap couple..
Now, the vibrant Julian is an eunuch grandpa and they grandmaed Alexis…
I liked seeing an older couple hot and vibrant and J&S have destroyed their hot magic and made them dull and old….
But what can you do with a killer and a dodo? LOL
I agree. I am starting to appreciate the couple ( not necessarily Alexis; she still grates on me). Their actions and behavioral patterns have come a long way. Soon, I hope, there will be a complete turnabout. Perhaps having the kids in the house makes a big difference?
Oh, CeeCeeGirl! That engagement scene today made me want to absolutely gag! I was totally expecting this over-sexed couple to start rolling around in the faux snow to “seal the deal.” To say the whole concept of these two being joined in marriage doesn’t work for me is a gross understatement! It certainly begs the question, why? (Make that why, why, WHY?????) Julian is a much hotter partner when paired with the luscious Olivia, and if he is so inclined to play “happy family,” he should be doing it with the mother of his infant son, where he can provide a proper upbringing for little Leo. It’s utterly ridiculous to think of him committing to the likes of the overbearing, underwhelming Alexis….all they do is act like randy teenagers every chance they get….they couldn’t even put up their Christmas tree without resorting to their “default position”……Not to mention that these two already appear so mismatched in terms of age, and it will only become more obvious with the passing years! Please, please, please let Liv work her “Christmas sweater magic” on Julian and spare him the indignity of being matrimonially stuck with Ms. Davis. By the way, did you notice they recycled her dress for the Nutcracker Gala? I distinctly recall that matronly “peek-a-boo” number from a prior Nurses’ Ball. Having said that, I’ve many other impressions to share regarding the fashions that were on parade at this event, as I’m sure you do, as well…but they shall have to wait until tomorrow! Just wanted to say hello….by the way, I twice answered your “Scorpio” thread post and even implored for a private send to you the second time. I’m assuming that was for naught?????
@Shay:
Good heaven Shay, oh, Shay!! I was enjoying my favorite salad when everything became a blur and almost chocked…LAUGHING!!!!!! (“Make that why, why, WHY?????). I could hear you!! It sent me into hysterics. Reading it was like being in the room with you ,having lunch together as we discussed our favorite sex-kitten’s satisfied purr sound like an “ouch and AHHH, my back…..!!!!!!” However, Shay; she has been looking pretty decent lately. No elongated cleavage in sight. I think Nancy is pretty. It’s just her personality that unnerves me. And, yes. This couple is as mismatched as Julian and Sam being father and daughter. Actually, thinking about it, he and she are better suited as a couple….looks, and age.
I did notice the recycled dress….but, what I found extremely atrocious was Christina’s dress/split-down-the-middle gown? What was that thing? It looked like priests’s vestments, ready to say Mass. So atrocious for a young woman….or anybody. And, supposedly that came from Molly’s closet?
Yes, your post was for naught or nought….take your pick in spelling. Sometimes autocorrect makes ‘naught’, sometimes ‘nought’. Both spelling is accepted. I may still get it.
Going to the city later until Christmas Eve morning. So, sweetie. Merry Christmas to you and yours. Have a really fun time. Don’t eat too much, HaHa. I know I WILL.
MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERY SINGLE ONE!!!! My good friends and all. Send you, figuratively speaking, LOL.
Correction: should read..see you ( figuratively); not send.
Well, CeeCeeGirl, I’m ever so glad that I gave you the gift of a good laugh for Christmas….except for the part about your salad almost getting in the way!!!! And yes, I did nearly let out an audible groan when Julian proposed….that is just SO wrong on so many levels!!!! I can only hope that some holiday miracle will transpire to release him from the sexually-charged clutches of the insatiable Alexis before she actually makes it down the aisle! (I shudder to think of her wedding attire……LOL!) At any rate, our minds were in sync on that fashion atrocity in which Kristina was so proudly parading around….Good Lord, WHAT was that creation? It looked liked someone took two different hideous dresses and thought, what the heck, let’s combine them for an even more appalling piece of apparel. Oy! (I also have to admit I simply cannot fathom the reason for this current version of the character….the last incarnation was extremely attractive…still quite bratty and difficult, but somehow not as annoying as this one. She just turns me off in a very big way.) As for Sam and Julian, I’ve often thought they could have made for a most fitting couple in all ways physical had the writers not felt the need to make him her father…such a missed opportunity for them! (But I also think he absolutely sizzles with the very sexy Liv….she’s such a complete woman! Strong, independent, and gutsy, yet very earthy, domestic and maternal at the same time!) Needless to say, along with the departure of Sappy, a pairing of Julian and Olivia is on my Christmas short list of wishes! Which leads me to offering you—-and your remarkable, fabulous family—-a blessed and happy holiday season, especially those two little shining stars of yours, Nico and Rosalba! Have a safe and joyous time in the city…..after which I shall very much look forward to resuming our (often too moderated) correspondence in 2016. Take care and “Buon Natale,” mia amica!
And MOST importantly, does the Krampus tradition Liesl Obrecht started last year endure???? LOL!
I hope so!!
I hope not!
Krampus Krampus Krampus !!!!!
Love the Krampus !!
He is of christmas as much as Santa, just not loved by all in America..
While that may not come to fruition, check out Kathleen Gati’s Twitter page…..she pays homage to Krampus and waxes nostalgically about Dr. O.’s part in bringing him to Port Charles last Christmas! There’s even mention of the new movie by the same name……..
I agree Michael should not have forgiven Sonny though I understand his underlying love for him. Conflicted, complex.
What I REALLY can’t stand is that Michael now doesn’t even mention AJ. If the writers felt a need to bring Michael back to the Corinthos fold because of their need…he should have still kept the Quartetmaine name and declared himself still, regardless of his love for Sonny, son of AJ. Particularly in light of the custody battle for Avery. Sonny should have an awakening of how AJ must have felt being forced out of Michaels life, and Michael should realize how AJ must have felt…and all the years of being father and son they were denied.
They gave AJ a few months of justice and then undid it. Ugh! Don’t get me started! 🙂
Hmm…yes, and will we ever be gratified by Jason’s reaction upon learning that his BFF murdered his brother in cold blood and never paid the price for it?
Yeah, you’re right, Harry. But, do you think that zig Jason had any memory of his brother, he would think differently and more importantly behave differently towards Sonny? I hope that will be the case. I hate to think of a resumed alliance between the two.
But we knew from the start it couldn’t last, right? I just enjoyed it and was glad they played it out at all. Five years ago, even, that storyline would never have aired—Sonny could do no wrong and anything he did was perfect just because he did it and the rightness of Sonny could not be questioned. So although I knew it would not last, I appreciated even the brief respite from Sonny worship. But I also agree that the subsequent events have not made much sense at all, and Michael now looks like a dope.
As far as I’m concerned,,, these writers have completely RUINED GH!!!
Maybe they need to read comments that have been on social media,,,
Good bye GH,,let me know when either the writers have figured out the back stories and have made an effort ,,,a real effort to write for these actors and the audience,,,,

GENERAL HOSPITAL Preview: Carly and Lulu Make Plans to Rescue Their Children; Anna Looks Determined to Secure Her Freedom
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)? Can Carly (Laura Wright) with the help of her brother, Lucas (Van Hansis) rescue Josslyn (Eden McCoy) from captivity at Wyndemere? 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!

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