GENERAL HOSPITAL: Patrick and Robin Remarry & Leave Port Charles! What Did You Think Of The Episode?

It was a very emotional day for not only the fictional characters of the Scorpio-Drake family and their beloved friends, but also for the actors who were watching viewers reactions unfold on social media, while also sharing some heartfelt behind-the-scenes photos from the taping of their final episode together. Of course, we are talking about Jason Thompson (Patrick) and Kimberly McCullough (Robin), who off and on for ten years created screen magic together as one of the most memorable couples in soap history, Patrick and Robin.
Now on to their grand finale on Thursday’s episode of General Hospital. As they prepare to start life anew in California, Patrick and Robin at the urging of their daughter Emma (Brooklyn Rae Silzer) get remarried in Port Charles in front of their family and friends. This tearjerker unfolded and provided Scrubs fans with plenty of hankie-filled moments. Chief among them was the wedding. As Mac (John J. York) presided over the ceremony, Patrick and Robin renewed their vows, but not before each of them said their own vows to Emma. Patrick vowing to make sure Emma’s life in California is just as special as it was in Port Charles, and Robin vowing to never leave Emma’s side ever again. Moment by moment throughout the episode it became harder to distinguish where the story was unfolding and the real-life goodbyes were happening, because this was indeed Thompson’s last scenes.

After the nuptials, Carly (Laura Wright) finally thanked Robin for bringing Jason Morgan home! A storypoint that needed to be addressed, because as you recall, Carly and Robin got into a major spat at the hospital shortly before Robin up and left her family to find Jason. Best friends Elizabeth (Rebecca Herbst) and Patrick shared an emotional and heartfelt goodbye. Jason Morgan (Billy Miller) and Robin also shared some special moments before the ceremony and after. We also noted the moment where the old Billy Abbott ( Miller) wished the new Y&R Billy Abbott (Thompson) well in a scene between Jason and Patrick.
In a touching moment, Sonny (Maurice Benard) thanked Patrick for all of his support and help in getting him this far in his recovery. Since Sonny’s legs started to move, Patrick told Sonny this is all very encouraging, and he is left in the care of wonderful doctors who will oversee his case.

In a another heart-tugger, Anna (Finola Hughes) gives Emma an airline ticket. She tells her granddaughter she can come to visit anytime she wants. Later, when it’s time to say goodbye, we noticed a very special hug between longtime scene partners, Finola Hughes and Jason Thompson as Anna and Patrick said farewell. Of course, there was also the scene where Anna and Robin said another heartfelt and heartbreaking goodbye – the best mother/daughter on-screen duo on the planet. Mac also gives his love to Robin as well in another heart-tugger as does her father, Robert (Tristan Rogers), who also tells Patrick to look after his daughter.
In one final moment as she looks around at the Drake home, Robin flashes back and remembers moments of her life with Patrick in a montage.

Finally, the time has come. Anna tells Patrick and Robin they better leave if they plan on catching their plane. In this bittersweet moment, they say their final goodbyes and walk out the front door with Emma between them … off to their new life and to their new adventures together as one united family. They get their happy ending.
Watch the Scrubs montage that aired on yesterday’s episode below. Then let us know: What did you think of the episode? Did you reach for the hankies? Which moment got to you the most? Share your sentiments in the comment section below – one last time for the love story of Patrick and Robin.

GH’s Parry Shen Delivers the ‘Power Performance of the Week’
How many of us have lost, or had to say goodbye to our best friend? Somehow fate or illness intervenes and cuts short someone you share so many memories with.
On last Thursday’s episode of General Hospital, Dr. Britt Westbourne’s (Kelly Thiebaud) family and friends gathered for her memorial at the GH chapel. However, viewers knew of the special connection between Britt and her bestie, Brad Cooper (Parry Shen).

Devastated at losing Britt, upset that she never told him she about her diagnosis with Huntington’s Disease, and mourning her death, Brad comes to her former office, where Britt was the Co-Chief of Staff at the hospital. After exchanging heartfelt moments with Britt’s mother, the grieving Liesl (Kathleen Gati), and Scott Baldwin (Kin Shriner), Brad (with a paper bag in hand) spends some time alone in Britt’s former office, which has now been cleaned out.
Next, Brad takes out a carton of ice cream (for those who know the back-story, Britt and Brad would sit together each with ice cream and watch the red carpet at the Nurses’ Ball on TV and hoot and howl at the residents of Port Charles), and thus begins a very emotional and five-hankie moment, where Brad recalls all the key moments in their friendship.
Parry Shen was so touching in this scene, that if you have been a fans of Britt and Brad’s friendship, we are sure you shed some tears.
Later, during the memorial, Brad is pained listening to the others eulogize Britt, and when it is his turn to speak, he does his best to get through it and pay homage to his best friend.
We will miss the Brad and Britt friendship as will many GH viewers for it was one-of-a-kind on the soaps – two originally, not so nice people, doing bad things and finding common ground with each other, and eventually turning their lives around and being there to support each other.
For all of these scenes mentioned above, Michael Fairman TV names Parry Shen’s work, the Power Performance of the Week. You can check out a clip featuring Shen below.
Now, let us know, what did you think of Parry’s Performance during Britt’s memorial episode? Comment below.

Adam Huss Back to GH as Nikolas Cassadine
With Marcus Coloma’s last appearance as Nikolas Cassadine on last week’s January 26th episode of General Hospital, the soap opera brought back Adam Huss to finish out the dark prince’s storyline.
According to Soaps.com. Huss aired today on the January 31st episode of the ABC daytime drama series and will finish out the scenes that were written to be portrayed by Coloma.
Adam previously subbed for Coloma back in September 2021 and again in November 2022.

After it was announced that Coloma was leaving GH, the network and the series agreed that it would be best that Marcus did come in to tape his last episodes since he was recovering from Covid-19 at the time. Thus, we are seeing those episodes featuring Huss now airing in early February.
So, glad to see Adam back to wrap Nikolas’ current storyline? Share your thoughts in the comment section below.

The show needs another doctor…bring back Steve Webber even if recast…don’t pair him back with Olivia…have him paired with Sam…this way Liz and Jason who should be paired can invite Steve over for dinner and he can bring Sam as his supprise date!!!!…lol
boy are they milking “Jason” and the women in his life for every thing….(Carly, Sam, Liz) on the latest SOD issue on the newsstands front cover… 2016 storylines Pic of Jason and Sam : “Starting Over” ??? ” I ” don’t care… I’m just wondering how long we have to “ugh” through this till Jason sees the light and returns to Liz so… no surprise to any one who’s watching it’s the Carly and Sonny ; Jason and Sam SHOW story potential !!!!! 1. Nicholas and Hayden ! GH! for the love of serial ! give this couple some POWER…… Read more »
BLEH! I mean, BLEH! Patrick!!! I think Nina and Franco are about as appetizing as liver and onions.
Of course, maybe some have a hankering for liver and onions but that segment of our population is very few and very far between.
@Harry,
Many people loooove liver and onions; with salt and pepper? Deliiiish! Try stir-frying Italian peppers and a red one as a splash of color….hmm, hmm, good! HaHa!
Noah Drake should of been there too
Noah is at the hospital where Jason and Robin will be working. He pretty much got them their jobs.
I meant Patrick and Robin. Got the actor’s name confused with the character.
@MR
Too funny…I like that.
What struck me the most is that more legacy characters have been ushered off canvas, another core/historical family gone. I understand KMC isn’t a full time working actress, but JT left because he was underutilized, Mac & Felicia are basically not on the show anymore and I doubt there are big long term plans for Robert. So when I see Frank & Varni giddy over the exit of these characters, it turns my stomach. Why aren’t Mac & Felica on GH? Two iconic figures on the show and on soaps. John J York has built something on GH, he is… Read more »
They dont even show Scott and Lucy…i dont know what happened to Ric???
ITA…WTF GH
Could not agree with you more on all levels, AJQ. Thank you for your comment.
You realize now, of course, that the ONLY two families left on GH are the dark, immoral mob families: the Jerome/Davis clan and the Corinthos clan. When the Scorpio-Drakes left, they took with them what is left of GH’s light and moral center. They cannot be replaced. And won’t be. A big gaping hole is left in the show’s fabric: the hole where its heart used to be.
They need to shore up the Quartermaine family and bring back Lucky and, now that Genie Francis is under contract (at long last and long overdue!!!), let the Spencer family be front and center–(if they can redeem Nikolas)–and, for heaven’s sake, let Laura be the titular head–and moral center–of the show. And——how about some levity in the program? We’re overdue for some humor, aren’t we? That could easily be accomplished by giving Laura a passionate love story and love interest. (I’m still lobbying for James Read–who was so great as a baddie on Days–to come into Port Charles as a… Read more »
Yep. Today’s show was so blah compared to yesterday’s. I am interested to find out what happens to little Jake, and of course, Kirsten & Brandon are such a cute real-life couple, will look forward to their scenes. Everything else was FF material.
I think unfortunately the direction GH is headed in, dropping very likable, long-term characters, coincides with their overall programming philosophy. Look at their nightime linup – it’s comprised of flashy, cheap thrill stuff, sex and violence. Look at how little they invest in scenes with Anna and Robert, like the rescue of Robin. It was quick, little money spent on it, no suspenseful outdoors stuff and far from the quallity adventures Anna, Robert, Luke, etc. went on years ago. Crime is “in” at ABC, heart-centered drama and good acting doesn’t mean much to them anymore, day or night.
Ugh…I know, Tristan. Don’t remind me, Lol. Dealing with Sonny and his cohorts day in and day out is not too appealing.
Nancy has good ideas; especially about Mac and Anna…..which reminds me. I never realized what a good looking guy John York is. He’s hardly ever on, so I hadn’t really gotten a good look (unintentional pun, lol). He and Felicia are stunning together. Did I mention how beautiful Christina Malandro Wagner is?
I enjoy the Alexis & daughters clan interaction. They are not dark – and not boring either. The conversation about sex in Kelley’s was good, I thought. I liked how the writers generalized the dialogue to touch on several storylines on the show.
AJQ…..LOL… “Julian running around in a turtle neck!!!” That was so accurate! I 100% agree… would it not have been wonderful to have spent maybe a week ( they take an entire week on that Nurses Ball) interacting with some of our old favs such as long conversations between Mac and Robert….more depth with Robin and Robert, and most especially a very special loving mother/ Daughter talk between Robin and Anna? Why the rush push… it’s not like they did not have advanced notice, they had the actors sitting there, why not use it? Pathetic waste of talent… Felicia had… Read more »
Somebody needs to filch one of Julian’s beloved turtlenecks for the express purpose of cladding the cleavage-flashing Alexis ….’twould be especially apropos to cover up her wares what with the frigid East Coast winter temps which have finally arrived!!!!
Every comment you make is SO spot on AJQ. The waste that this show and this production team have made with all their new characters is just a tragedy. Nina and Franco first and foremost. Ava Jerome as well, along with Paul Hornsby (whom I was excited for until he turned into YET another DA but secretly a mob criminal.) They just don’t get it, at all.
Much of the poignancy I felt watching Robin and Patrick leave is for the loss of what they represented for the show.
The “unedited” version of this episode is on the ABC site, hosted by Finola Hughes. It has more flow, and Felicia speaks!!!!!!!!!
Well, about the best that can be said is Patrick and Robin finally “got there” in the end…and not a moment too soon!!! But what a colorless, nearly joyless ride they took us on to arrive there! First of all, the talents of phenomenal Finola Hughes, Tristan Rogers and Sebastian Roche’ were totally underutilized….the latter two especially seemed merely placed as props to further the very basic plot points required to reunite the Drakes and send them off on their way. I could not have been more disappointed!!! Ditto for the absence of Rick Springfield as Noah….although I could certainly… Read more »
Hi Shay. Thank you for your reply. I am a relative newbie to this board, so I really appreciate your clarification of your comments, with which I largely agree!
Hi Melissa… You will find on these boards a select few who feel sex over a certain age uncomfortable to watch, inappropriate, not realistic, laughable. The comments directed at Alexis by a few people are repetitive, and continually aimed at Alexis and most definitely because of her age: she should no longer show her cleavage (at “her age” it’s no longer attractive”) and related comments. Her sexual relationship is continually mocked…because she’s so crazy about Julian sexually…”at her age”…even though it’s behind closed doors. It’s continully been pointed out by same few, very few, but frequent poster (s) that Julian… Read more »
Brilliant, awesome, the best – The Scorpio-Drake’s are the heart of GH.
Yes I totally agree… I always loved Patrick and Robin together…I did not like him with Sam at all…!!!
It was everything my little scrubs heart desired!!!! I will miss them!
It was beautifully done. All the scenes were raw and real. Nothing felt “acted”. The very last scene with Anna, Robert, Patrick, Robin and Emma was extremely hard to watch. There is such a love and respect between them that can never be replaced. This was a magic group of people that fought through the last couple years of story and acted their butts off. No matter what they were given each scene felt real. A huge, huge thank you to the writers and producers for giving “scrubs” a wonderful send off. We can all imagine happier simpler times for… Read more »
My sentiments exactly–leave it to the WOMEN writers to give the viewers (and actors) the respect they deserve. Keep up the good work, writers.
Awesome Episode!!!! Love it sooooo Much, i had to watch it 5 times lol Goodbye Scrubs.
A little underwhelmed. At least Patrick and Robin, with Emma in tow, got married again. But the rest of the wedding party seemed like window dressing except for a couple of wrap-up conversations between Robin, Carly, Liz, and Jason. I realize it was short notice, but no music, laughter, festivity to speak of…Maxie where were you? Robert barely had a line, looked like he was on a lunch break from Y&R, and only one daddy/daughter hug…sorta…and then folded chairs and pulled a luggage piece outside. Felicia warmed a seat…that was all. Nothing between Anna and Robert…no meaningful glances, smiles, hugs,… Read more »
I thought it odd that Felicia & Robert weren’t used as well as they could have been. At one point, pulling luggage, I was worried the only dialogue Robert was going to have was to echo what (Emma?) had said. Glad that they could be on the set – special people in the lives of Robin on the show – & agreed to be there, even if not given their moments in the sun that day themselves. Maybe next time!
Sometimes simple ceremonies like this one, without gowns and special sets, are the best. The attendees were the people who meant the most to Patrick and Robin and their family, and they also happen to be longtime vets on GH. I was happy with how the wedding was done and what was said and the true emotion on the set. That said, I do think it’s a shame that a lot of these characters are not featured more on the show, like Mac, Felicia and even Robert. I know TR is on Y&R but he’s recurring there and could be… Read more »
End of an era is right. The era of must watch GH. No more doctors left at the hospital unless one counts Lucas. (Anyone seen Lucas lately?)
I loved it. Both Kimberly and Jason wore their hearts on their sleeves in the episode. While the entire story wrap up seemed rushed at times, the actors never let the lack of material diminish their efforts in giving the audience their all. I loved watching this family unit over the years and it felt as if a little bit of the heart of the show left with them yesterday. I will miss them.
I haven’t yet seen the episode, as I will binge the week’s shows over the weekend. And really, I am kind of putting it off because I cannot bear the loss of this family! But from all reports, GH did the little family justice in the send-off.
There is a rumour afoot that 10 minutes were edited out of the show, which Nathan Varni claims will be put on ABC.com. Would these minutes include lines spoken by Felicia and Robert, who were both reportedly reduced to props in the episode?
The show has edited scenes previously that would have been nice to see during the broadcast…. if only they would cut a few commercials instead 😉
The “unedited” version of this episode is up on the ABC site, hosted by Finola Hughes!!! It flows better, and Felicia speaks!!!
Thanks Tristan!
So beautiful. I especially loved when Patrick gave Emma a hug and kiss when she walked down the aisle, because you could really tell it was Jason and Brooklyn in that moment, not just Patrick and Emma. Robin and Patrick’s words to each other felt more like Jason and Kimberly than just Robin and Patrick, and the vows to Emma were fabulous, too, and the montage was wonderful. You could so tell Jason was saying goodbye to family on the show: Finola, Laura, Becky, Maurice, and especially Brooklyn and Kimberly. I did love his scene with Billy Miller, because it… Read more »
Here’s something to think about GH fans…the oldest male contract character (not actor) age-wise on GH is likely Julian or Sonny with Sonny being the longest male character/actor consistently on contract (since 1993) from the 90’s – I guess you could count Jason and Julian as characters from the 80’s, but obviously not same actors who are still relatively new. Sonny would be followed by Nicholas (TC off an on) from 1996. Sure, there are others who are recurring – Scotty (off and on since 1977) and Mac (1991) are still around but rarely seen with even less screen time… Read more »
The character of Robin should have been recast or killed long time ago if Kimberly didn’t want to stay on the showt. That way Jason would have had better story and Brooklyn would still be on the show. Quite often I am sad when an actor chooses to leave but is just that, their choice. And sometimes the character needs to still be on the show. In this case the part should be recast and, in my opinion, the GH casting director does a great job. I quit watching Y&R when Billy Milller and Michael Muney left and really have… Read more »
Well at least they had the decency to let these characters ride off in the sunset together as a family– leaving the door open for future returns. If this was another soap, the dark one, then they would of all died in a plane crash or if Ron was still writing it, I’m sure masked men would have barged into the wedding and whisked little Emma away, so Robin and Patrick had to leave town to search for their missing kid. Sometimes sweet and simple works the best, so kudos to GH for being brave enough to usher them off… Read more »
A wonderful episode indeed. I will watch it again. I wish JT and KM the best in their new roles as Billy Abbott and Director. Thank you GH for a fantastic episode. I wish more episodes were more like this one.
Best episode I’ve seen since the last time the Scorpios were front-and-center, two years ago! The only thing holding me to GH now is Tristan is coming back as Robert soon. I love the Jones family too, but where is Nathan?! I get the feeling a Maxie/Dillon pairing is in the works, and I cannot watch that. Can’t watch Jasam, not after Jake has been so much in love with Elizabeth this past year! I WAS interested in seeing Jason reconnect with Sam UNTIL Liason won me over. Now it all feels like so much fan-service, a game of “fanbase… Read more »
Hearing that Robert and Felicia were under utilized seems disrespectful so km not sure I’m raging to see the episode anymore. I’d like to see Robert and Anna have a real conversation about their past and what happened when they dissapeared.
Agreed. I kept waiting for those meaningful conversations to happen between Anna and Robert; and for Felicia to comfort Mac as he had to say goodbye to Robin – again. For that matter I was expecting a nice exchange between Robert and Mac. We got none of it. Just weird jumps to other stories that jolted us out of the wedding scenes.
And btw, how amateur hour was it that the cast had to pull the folding chairs out of the way while a scene was playing! All I could hear was the scraping of chairs.
The chair scene seemed so out of place, especially with vets/high priced talent.
It was really good. They didnt have much time but this exit was done so much better than Luke’s. Luke’s was fast, cheap and they brought in stunt casting characters with NO good story and the Frank Smith part was STUPID! Scrubs was done with dialogue, heart and clips. Jean and Shelly, good job! Now lets restock the hospital with hunky doctors, sexy nurses and what about an x-ray tech or a nutritionist? They do work IN hospitals! Cut O, Sabrina and that guy who stole Kevin’s job, bring Doc back, Steven Lars, Tom Hardy and Liz’s sister. Hey if… Read more »
And please, please, please! Get rid of Franco (particularly in the hospital) and Nina!
I enjoy Franco & Nina – have appreciated their chemistry since the art therapy friendship scenes!
I guess I’m one of the few that likes Franco, but mostly because of RH and mostly because they are morphing him into a good guy. Once they lost the rights to Todd Manning, GH should have brought back RH as an entirely new character. Instead they saddled him with a creepy character everyone hated and I think that is the #1 reason fans still can’t accept Franco, despite RH’s considerable charm, humor and skill as an actor.
I liked Todd Manning on GH. I despise Franco. RH could have been Jimmy Lee Holt’s son (thus a Quartermaine). He could have been a Cassadine. Heck, he even could have been a Jerome.
The fact that he was cast as Franco simply illustrates the poor business judgement of Frank Valentini and the over-the-top cartoon orientation, coupled with the over-the-top ego of the former writer.
Steve Hardy would NEVER let Freako work there! But then again, look who is the chief of staff. Dr. O is a criminal! Let her be the new Helena. Its a joke she is in charge of the hospital and secondly, you never see her!
Timmm, Ditto: it was really good. So satisfying to see the characters together as a family, happy, and off to a new adventure. I loved the montage. I like your ideas for re-staffing GH, which really needs to happen. I loved the scenes today with Liz and Laura. It reminded me of how close they were after Liz was raped. I’d love the see Laura as the new head of a Webber-Spencer-Cassadine clan. Let’s give her something to do other than pick up the grandchildren. Wasn’t she a social worker? Put her to work at the hospital and let her… Read more »
I should add: Thank you to GH for giving the viewers what they wanted for Robin and Patrick. If Jason Thompson had to go, then this was the way to do it. I so appreciate that no one interrupted the ceremony; no one kidnapped Robin or anyone else before the ceremony; no one came in guns blazing to take out Sonny. A simple episode with love, family, friends, and joy. What a concept!
Its a joke! Liz knows how evil Helena is or was and Liz is a nurse! Yes, why the hell isnt Jake in therapy! I wish Lucky would come back and be there for Liz. Maybe not now but later in the year. It doesnt have to be JJ. Greg was a fine recast!
i am all for bringing back some of liz’s family members – i mean she is the grand daughter of dr steve hardy who was the first doctor seen on gh when it started in 1963 and was the original patriarch of the show……….
Since I have never met Liz’s family, I would love to see a few of her relatives.
By the by, elm, do you think Liz is concocting the ‘break-in’ just to keep Jason around?
I 100% agree… would it not have been wonderful to have spent maybe a week ( they take an entire week on that Nurses Ball) interacting with some of our old favs such as long conversations between Mac and Robert….more depth with Robin and Robert, and most especially a very special loving mother/ Daughter talk between Robin and Anna? Why the rush push… it’s not like they did not have advanced notice, they had the actors sitting there, why not use it? Pathetic waste of talent… Felicia had next to nothing to say…. HOWEVER… just a thought about Brooklyn (… Read more »
A rushed mess from start to finish.
No Robin/Robert scene. No good-byes between Emma and Cameron and Spencer. No Epiphany and Drake Jr. scene. No lines for Felicia.
But let’s be honest — would we really have wanted to see any of that if it had meant not having Sonny and Carly at the wedding stealing screen time from the Drakes and their loved ones on their final episode…?
It would have been worse not to have Sonny & Carly there, I think. Considering the history they all shared with Robin. It was nice to see Carly & Robin close that loose thread. Sorry it wasn’t your cup of tea, though. I understand the passion behind your sarcasm!
Yeah, I didn’t get why they had more face time with Robin and Patrick than their family members!
I love Franco, Melissa. I suppose I am also one of the few. Everyone is so down on him and Nina. They are doing an admirable job with what they are given. I’d rather watch them than listen to Sonny stumble through his lines. Believe me, I wish Michelle would reprise her role as Phyllis, on Y&R.
@Melissa…..I saw your comments to me on another GH thread, but since you had no direct link, I’m responding here:….Although you are certainly familiar to me, I’m not sure how long you’ve been frequenting these “boards,” but, for the record, I’ve been more than consistent in equally condemning Alexis and Sonny, not to mention other characters, on their less than admirable moral failings! (In fact, our good friend, CeeCee, and I have had an absolute field day mocking the “Dimpled Don’s” most unsavory virility and far-reaching propensity for procreation….) So, for you to think my disgust has been solely aimed… Read more »
It was my pleasure, Melissa! I had noticed a number of your recent comments, and may have even replied to a few prior to this one, but I didn’t realize you were new to MFSoaps, so please allow me to extend a belated welcome! I always enjoy the fresh perspectives of posters like yourself, so do keep those comments coming! They’re great!!!
Great episode, well acted by all:)
NOW THATS A PERFECT SEND OFF!!!! THANK YOU GH❗️❗️❗️
I like the cheesy send off! It was sweet for us “Scrubs” fans and although it seemed even more Robin centered than Patrick, I liked it. I will miss them, their family unit, their “realness”, I am so glad the stupid Robin kidnap story is over!!! I do hope she continues to visit once in a while. This show has really had its ups and downs. I am sad to see Patrick leave, he is one of my favs!!!! I am disappointed that they couldn’t find him a new woman who he was compatible with and had chemistry with. He… Read more »

The only saving grace this episode was the flashbacks. THOSE brought a nostalgic tear to my eyes. Other than that, it couldnt have worked less for me. First, after all the buildup, devote the entire episode to the wedding! They could have included Ephiphany, Spencer, Cameron, Nicolas and the obgyn (cant remember her name) if they hadn’t incorporated other actors/storylines into the same show. Robert Scorpio. He barely spoke a line at the wedding let alone the entire few days he was back. They’ve completely neutered his personality. As for Felica, they might as well have put her picture on… Read more »
The wedding of robin and Patrick it was good to see them back together husband and wife again
Perfect day for the wonderful soap family who were finally able to reunite.
sorry to see them leave GH. You never know when they might decide to
visit Port Charles again. Best of luck in their careers. Great job!!
Trashy Tacky and Rush.. The wedding seems more about KMC working with BM and JT say good bye to BM
@CeeCee – after seeing elizabeth jump up off the couch when she heard the noise i don’t think she is involved – i really think it has something to do with the cassadines but that is just my opinion
I’m thinking it might be little Jake in an attempt go get them back together…
now that is a possibility – he also could be carrying out some strange plan that helene may have programmed into him – she programmed his dad jason so why not lil jake too……………….lol
Hi Elm…lol….you never know…There’s a few possibilities concerning Little Jake…
He’s not really Little Jake…though I doubt that because there would probably be too much anger from the fans…
He was, and I agree with what you suggested, programmed to some degree…
He’s just psychologically effected and in need of therapy which should have been offered right away if for no other reason than to assess him…
Or, he’s miraculously okay..,but just acting out.
Dunno but I think there’s bound to be some trouble with him down rhe road…
I never cried so hard they need to win a award!
Loved it!
Carley is fantastic, a great actress. I love Emma, sorry to see her leave.
I really like Franco, but I think he needs to be “cleaned up”, he is not clean looking. Sometimes the story line goes on too long. Jason needs to decide Liz or Sam.
I don’t think Olivia can act worth a darn.
Loved the reunion, however, hate seeing Emma leave. Love Emma and Spencer’s banter. Now, where are the DOCTORS on GH ? It’s called General Hospital and we have : 1 doctor and 1 nurse !!!! There are more mobsters on GH than doctors. Something is wrong with this picture !!!!
Now for Sam and Jason!! Nuff said!!!
Now for Sam and Jason!! Nuff said!!!
Now for Sam and Jason. Nuff said!!!
Sam/Jason next?
