On the Wednesday, February 26th episode of General Hospital, meet your new WSB agent, none other than … Josslyn Jacks (Eden McCoy). In a meeting at Jack Brennan’s (Chris McKenna) office at WSB’s Port Charles Bureau, Jack continues to tell her that she has all the talent necessary to be a spy.

However, Joss tells Jack, she is not a spy, but a college student. He reels her in by telling her that working with the WSB she can make a difference in the world. In fact, what she did by killing Cyrus Renault had to be done, and that she likely saved countless lives by taking the guy out.

But here’s the catch: Josslyn will have to work in the shadows and she can tell no one about this, not even her mother Carly (who Jack is all romantically into). Josslyn asks why would she want to work with the WSB? Jack says covert works helps change the world. He is offering her a career where she can use her athletic skills and her mind to make a difference. When Jack asks if she’s studying anything at school that compares to what he is offering? She admits there isn’t.

Next, Jack asks how she felt stopping Dex Heller’s killer? Josslyn admits it felt good to do something to stop the killings and to avenge Dex’s death. Jack says that sometimes you have to go outside the system for the greater good. Josslyn firmly states that if she joins the WSB she will not kill people. Jack says he has other people that can do that. He needs her to remain a college student as she can get into places he can’t.

Josslyn feels she has no choice. Jack covered up her crime of killing Cyrus, so he can hold that over her head. Jack admits a coerced agent does him no good. He is offering her to challenge herself like never before. However, if she doesn’t want it, that’s fine. Then Jack lures her in by saying, then she should go back to getting her college degree in environmental science. It’s at that point Joss decided she’s in. She will be a WSB agent, not just for all the reasons he said, but also for Dex. Then in a twist, Jack tells her that she is leaving tonight. Where is Jack going to send Josslyn for her first mission?

At the PCPD, Jason (Steve Burton), ADA Turner (Nazneen Contractor), Carly (Laura Wright), Anna (Finola Hughes), and Drew (Cameron Mathison) and Willow (Katelyn MacMullen) have a standoff. ADA Turner asks Drew if Jason was at his house last night during the time Cyrus is believed to have been murdered. And in a real low blow, Drew looks Jason and the ADA dead in the eye and says that it’s come down to Jason using his position as a congressman to cover up his crime. Next, Drew tells the ADA he was home all alone and Jason is lying.

Drew says he will sign an official statement; sharing that while he gets Jason’s hatred of Cyrus, he can’t lie for him. Willow just stands there and Carly goes ballistic as Jason is taken away in handcuffs for booking. Carly looks at Willow and asks, “Are you okay with all of this? What the hell has happened to you!” We’d lik

Anna is in for shock when ADA Turner takes her off of Jason’s case, but Anna talks with Jason that she will find out what happened to Cyrus’ body and who killed him. Diane gets Jason released for now, and Carly tells the ADA that Drew is lying, and he’s just like all the other congressmen in DC. ADA Turner says Jason had motive to kill Cyrus, Sam’s death. Willow hits a new low in the gullible factor, when she comes back to Drew’s house from the police station, and announces that she and the kids will move in with him, much to his delight.

Elsewhere, Chase (Josh Swickard) thinks his brother, Finn, should be the sperm donor for a baby and he floats the idea by Brook Lynn (Amanda Setton). She is kind of freaked out by it. In the end, they don’t know what to do next, as things are about to go off the rails when Brook Lynn eventually learns that Gio (Giovanni Mazza) is her son with Dante (Dominic Zamprogna), and her mother, Lois (Rena Sofer) knew it all this time!

What do you think of Josslyn taking the job as a spy with the WSB? Will she help Jason get out of a murder charge, or can she now? What did you think of how low Drew has stooped in his life? Comment below. But first, watch the scenes between Eden McCoy and Chris McKenna which marks a huge turning point in Josslyn’s life.

Josslyn being a W.S.B. agent is laughable. Absolutely laughable.

Totally agree. They must be out of storyline. Bad mistake!

Agree 100%

Everybody in the police station should have known immediately that Drew was full of dragonshit when he denied being Jason’s alibi.

Whatever you might think of Jason Morgan – his chosen occupation, his priorities, or all the things he’s alleged to have done over the years, there’s one thing everybody should know about the guy by now.

Jason Morgan does not lie. If a Devil remembers correctly, he’s literally incapable of doing so, thanks to one of his 666 prior brain injuries.

Jason either answers a question truthfully, or he says “talk to my lawyer”. But he doesn’t lie. And since it’s not exactly a secret that he and his brother don’t get along very well, why in Hell’s name would Jason say he was at Drew’s house if he wasn’t.

Obviously the fake DNA “evidence” was planted. But as I said elsewhere, they should take advantage of that fact, and use it to implicate Drew in the murder, since it could have just as easily been him, since he has the same DNA as his twin brother.

Of course then Drew would beg Jason to be HIS alibi. And Jason, of course, wouldn’t be able to lie about it. Which is too bad, because sending Drew “up the river” on a murder charge would solve a lot of problems right now.

Jason does lie when it’s convenient. Claiming to be that father of Carly, Sam, and Sasha’s babies are just 3 (similar) examples.

Did he actually lie about those situations or did he just not say anything at all and let the other mortals jump to their own conclusions?

In the present storyline with Sasha’s baby, for example. Jason has never said he was the father of Sasha’s baby. He just allowed others to assume so, because it served Michael’s best interests. Similar circumstances to when Sonny asked him to take care of the pregnant Sam or when Carly left baby Michael with him while she dropped off the planet for several months with a case of “post partum depression”. In that case, he was honest with Robin about who Mikey’s father actually was, and that eventually came back to bite him in the ass when Robin got angry with him and used that information against him.

Also didn’t lie to Dany had s Son!

No he didn’t lie ,& no one asked him!
Shasa was the one said it to protect Michael!
Drew could be real killer?
Jasslen maybe was tricked & fooled ,& writer want to cut her now we will not see her!
Willow she accepted to work as sex worker so not to be cut !

Thank you Soo for much all the you said they’re all true Drew and Willow can they bring nothing just all nothing gh is so bad right now to many people that bring nothing to the show

So first Drew, separates the siblings, then he further disrupts Scout’s life by having Willow move in with him. Now he is declaring a false statement to the PCPD against his brother. Eventually he will wind up dead or become a suspect in Cyrus’s murder. As for the Joss storyline..don’t get me started!

Drew and Jason are not identical twins so they have different DNA

They are identical twins. Remember that Victor Cassadine conned Robin Scorpio into thawing out popsicle Drew because he looked exactly like Jason. The only reason he looks different now is because Ava Jerome ran over his face in a stolen SUV.

Definitely identical twins. Ava hit Drew with her car and he had reconstructive surgery. Flashbacks of his navy seal days showed Steve Burton as Drew.

Jason and Drew are identical twins and DNA would be the same. Remember when Kim Nero, (Tamara Braun) saw Jason at Sonny’s house and thought he was Drew.

I cannot wait until Carly finds out what Jack Brennan has done to and with Joselyn. CARLY IS GOING TO EXPLODE.

Joss being a agent is stupid story

Joss should have gone to police

Absolutely!

Terrible Joss storyline. Fix it please.

These story lines are so dumb….. I can barely watch GH anymore. The show is totally be ruined!

I agree 100%. The show is a joke and I haven’t watched in months. Used to be my absolute favorite daytime show that I had watched for 40 years. Frank V. has ruined the show for me. I never imagined giving up on it. But here we are.

How far are the writer s gonna allow this drew and willow they’re not the hottest couple he looks old she looks like she’s lost and don’t know which way to turn, except the way drew tells her to on a scale of 1 to 10 there weired relationship is below 1 which o % so you should have kept cody and sasha now they were your hottest couple as for jason he doesn’t need drew. He just wanted him to tell the truth which of course he lied when was the last time the writer’s show him with his daughter just the two of them she lost her mom you would think he would be with her instead of chasing after a married woman

Gh has gone down hill, the story lines make no sense. Drew and Willow make me sick how old is he any way. GH is going in the wrong direction.

Totally agree

I totally agree. I really wish the writers would write Drew out of the story line & have Willow come to her senses . There is no way Jason could have killed Cyrus if Drew would just tell the truth.

Drew lied right in front of police commissioner an to the ADA an it’s going to bit Drew in the butt cause of lying to them
I hope that in line of questioning that they could have looked at Jason phone an possibly if Jason was driving that they have GPS locations on an it will show that Jason was at Drew’s house an Drew was there too an Drew will be in trouble!
But I have to say Drew is a skuzzball and I hope he gets into serious troubled Waters and make him lose everything Willow Scout he won’t have nothing and lose his Congress seat in Congress he will be back in prison!

Not sure how he still has his congressional seat as it is considering it’s almost March and he hasn’t shown up for work yet.

Yeah there’s a lot of mortals in Congress who don’t do much but at least they show up and pretend to be interested in the job.

I was thinking the same thing like are they going to track his phone but these writers are dumb.

I was thinking the same thing about the GPS, but Jason wouldn’t want that to be on his car or phone. It could come back to bite him at other times. I’m sure he’s probably disabled it.

Drew is definitely a scuzzball. What reason would Jason have to use Drew as his alibi, when everybody knows they hate each other? There are plenty of other people he could use, like Sonny or Carly. Using Drew just doesn’t make sense if it was untrue.

Yes, please get rid of Drew. Wish Monica was able to disown him before she passed.

Yes, very stupid story having Joss join the WSB. Hope Carly finds out what Brennan has done and that will be the of their little romance. As for Drew, his life needs to be found out and Jason off the hook! Willow is so stupid, hasn’t a clue, Nina needs to tell her the truth! PLEASE let this happen soon, GH. We are waiting, patiently but some not so much!

They Cut her out,the writer didn’t want people get upset like Sam so they are cutting actors one by one?

Joss being a spy? Are you for real? That is the dumbest thing I ever saw GH do!!! I mean someone!!!! Also if I didn’t dislike Drew I despise him now!!! What a jerk!!!! Lying about being an alibi for Jason?! I can’t wait until naive Willow discovers what a scum Drew is!!!!

OMG. This is really going to happen? The writers are really going to have Drillow go so low as to move in together? Nina is really going to be so selfish and let this happen? Maybe if she tells dumb Willow that she was sleeping with disgusting Drew, Willow will wake up. This has gone on far too long and it doesn’t make good TV. This storyline has totally turned me off from GH and having been a fan for over 40 years, I’ve seen some bad storylines.

Joslyn being WSB is ridiculous. Lucy not knowing about Sidwell is ridiculous. Lulu is totally annoying. Tracy being Tracy is fantastic. Stick it to Drew. I love it.

Just want to say, it’s been so long now that if Nina tells her daughter about her and Drew, Willow is just stupid and naive enough to tell her mother” well, he loves me now for real, and you were just a fling that you took seriously.

I hate this story line! It is bad enough that I don’t even want to watch anymore. To think that Joss would lie and betray her Mom is ridiculous! Drew has become such a slime-ball it is not fun to watch anymore. Willow has been turned into a character that is not likable or one that you can even want to follow. I have watched GH for decades. The story needs some serious help. I don’t think I am alone in how I feel about the recent writing. Blah!

I second that! Been watching since day one. I am not sure if it’s just the times we live in, but this seems more ridiculous to watch these days. Bad writing, loose ends that don’t add up? I love the characters and actors, but I am starting to cringe when I watch.

That’s it for me. I am out! Too farfetched. Instead of thinking Cyrys wiped down the cabin and totally escaped, they all are saying he’s dead– with no reason to think that. Come on.

Joss leaving without talking to her Mom & taking NO personal belongings is the most unrealistic storyline GH writers have ever dished out – it’s absurd! Surely the writers could have done better!!! PLUS the new Jack Brennan makes me disrespect my beloved Carly. I have watched & supported GH when others criticized – but these 2 things are insulting. Please get the original Jack back

Joss storykline silly. Rest of GH storylines the best of all the soaps.

Of course cryrus is dead we all saw him get shot in the chest, you did not watch that day??

I can’t wait for Drew to hit rock bottom and take Willow with him.Anba needs to go to jail for helping Valentin to escape

I am so looking forward to the Drew and Willow blow up

The Joss storyline doesn’t bother me at all since agencies recruit from college campuses normally. I figure he sent her off for training, not a mission, but we’ll find out when she returns. I also wonder if Eden needed a break and that is how the story developed. She didn’t take off very long when her mother passed.

Anyone in their right mind knows that Jason would not rely on Drew to lie on him. Also, Drew and Jason share the same DNA so it would be just as likely Drew’s. Lastly and most importantly, there is ZERO evidence that Cyrus is dead. Cyrus was last scene escaping after he almost killed Lucky. They have no reason to believe anything but he skipped town. They never had any evidence that Cyrus was ever in that cabin in the first place. So stupid.

Seems like you missed a whole show, maybe more? Joss went to the cabin with Dex’s gun, Cyrus came in and realized what she was up to, picked up a big ax and when he went after her, she shot and killed him, and then Brennan arrived, etc,etc.

I think the meaning was that the police have zero evidence that Cyrus was killed. We know because it was shown that Joss shot Cyrus when he went after her with the ax/hatchet. It could just as easily been true that Cyrus wiped everything down and disappeared. The police automatically assumed he was killed.

Kmt GH is going down the drain don’t know what is the writers doing no good storyline smh

I wish they would write Drew’s character out,as his character is a scumbag and Willow is so stupid, that whatever she gets, she deserves!!!

Drew was one of the only standup honest guys in the whole show and so was Willow. I’m not sure why they’re having them be the adulterers. I hate the writers for doing this to Drew. I like the Drew character because he was the first honest guy they had on the show And Willow would never betray Michael not really. This is poor writing just for sensationalism the only character I like to watch is Ava and the college kids.

Drew is not as the bad guy and the writers are being unfair to him by making him lie about where Jason was. Drew has been the standup guy he’s always been until he fell in love with Michael’s wife who happens to be in love with him. General Hospital has always been about adultery, but I don’t think it ever had anybody commit cold blooded murder like Sunny did and Jason covered it up so I’m almost through with the whole show. The only people I like to watch are Ava. And The college kids. The rest of it is too contrived too crazy.

So, you’re fine with Ava, who directly killed Connie and helped contribute to AJ and Morgan’s deaths? Don’t get me wrong – I love the character and the actress.

As for other “honest” guys, Chase, Curtis, TJ (and most certainly) Mac. You can still root for them.

Joslyn being in the WSB is the stupidest thing yet. She’s barely old enough to drink and looks less like she is. I don’t get the angle. What’s Brennan getting out of it?

What’s Brennan getting out of it? Are you sleeping when the show is on? It’s obvious, he’s getting a WSB agent from scratch, trained, etc. It’s not a joke!

I thought she would be great to take Jason’s place, Anna is getting older a new WSB young agent has so many possibilities

I have watched since the 60s and now find the show being hard to watch. Can’t stand Drew and think Joss story is not even believable . Going to stop being a fan. Willow story is so stupid and is another reason to stop watching.

Beyond the Gates is right on time as GH is going downhill. When will Willow find out that Drew has slept with her mother

What are these new writers thinking of? Having Johnson work as a WSB agent is absolutely crazy and makes no sense whatsoever. Plus they’re gonna frame Jason for something he did not do and Jocelyn is too stupid to get out of it. She should’ve gone immediately to the police explain what happened and told her mother Carly. When Carly finds out she is going to explode. Sometimes these storylines just get out of control and don’t make any sense. They should take off the SWSB immediately.

Please bring back the REAL Brennan! He was so perfect in the role and a delight to look at. (I’m old, but I’m not blind!)

He chose to leave the show.

RATINGS: ‘The Young and the Restless,’ ‘The Bold and the Beautiful’ Remain No #1 and # 2, ‘General Hospital’ Only Soap to Lose Viewers

Published

By

The latest Nielsen ratings data is out for the week of April 27-May 1, and three out of the four network daytime dramas posted gains in total viewers, while one showed a loss in audience numbers, which may come as a surprise.

Let’s take a look at the ratings period with data from Soap Opera Network and then provide some context. The Young and the Restless remained as per usual in the top spot coming in at 3,14,000 on average total viewers slightly up +20,000 more eyeballs for the week.

In story, Y&R served up Matt’s plot to blow up the Newmans inside the abandoned gas station on the outskirts of Vegas, Sienna believing she killed Matt, only for him to be revealed alive with a severe contusion on his head by week’s end, Nick going on a bad drug trip thanks to the fentanyl laced with something else via Matt, and Cane and the Winters family learning that he is a donor match to save Malcolm’s life, while Sally got engaged to Billy.

FASHION HOUSE PROBLEMS

Y&R’s sister soap, The Bold and the Beautiful clocked in with 2,795,000 viewers for the week up +38,000 from the previous ratings period. In story, The Bold and the Beautiful gave viewers; the fallout from Katie’s successful fashion show for her new fashion house, Logan. Dylan continuing to be freaked out. This time when doing her work at Forrester Creations, out from the clothing rack comes somebody that scares her enough to have her let out a blood-curdling scream. In addition, Liam suggested to Hope that she consider coming to work for Logan where she will be appreciated, after Steffy tells her that ‘Hope for the Future’ is back-burnered for now.

General Hospital, which many have considered being the most entertaining on a consistent basis with their storylines, most likely lost some viewers for the week because on Monday April 27, the show was preempted for a special report on the attempted shooting at the White House Correspondence dinner. If viewers did not catch it on Hulu, it aired on the network after Nightline on Tuesday at 1am. In total, GH was the only soap to lose viewers for the ratings week. GH tallied -1,809,000 which is down from the previous week by -168,000.

PAYBACK AND A SHOCKING REVEAL

In story that week, Carly’s double life with Brennan and Valentin caught up with her, Michael initiated a strategic plot against Willow, and Josslyn found herself in immediate danger after a run-in with Cassius.

Beyond the Gates, while having two days of the week fully preempted for UEFA Champions League soccer games, actually increased its viewership. BTG tallied 1,655,00 total viewers which also boasted the highest audience gains across any soap adding +42,000. In story, the soap opera spotlighted: Ashley stealing antibiotics to keep Grayson alive, Smitty zeroing in on a possible suspect in the plasma ring, Vernon taking over Martin’s debt to Joey Armstrong, while Kate recognized a name tied to Lynette’s finances.

It should also be noted for the ratings week; The Bold and the Beautiful once again topped Y&R for the top spot in the key Womens 18-49 demo and in the Womens 25-54 demo, Beyond the Gates once again bested General Hospital for the 3rd spot.

GENERAL HOSPITAL: Would You Be Down With a Dante and Elizabeth Romance?

Published

on

By

On the Friday, May 15 episode of General Hospital, Elizabeth (Rebecca Herbst) and Dante (Dominic Zamprogna) shared a heartfelt talk on trauma. Dante is so concerned for Rocco (Finn Carr), and how it affects someone for the rest of their life, which is something Elizabeth knows all too well, but got through it.

It all begins when Elizabeth shows up at Dante’s office ready for her date with Ric Lansing (Rick Hearst). How beautiful she looked did not go unnoticed by Dante. When the talked turned to how Dante told Rocco that he knew his son shot Cullum (Andrew Hawkes), he admits he is scared for his child, because he lost his innocence with the emotional baggage he now must carry forever of shooting someone.

Dante notices how Rocco is becoming more and more withdrawn and he wants to know how to help him. Elizabeth bring up how she can absolutely relate to trauma at a young age, just like Rocco. However for Elizabeth, her trauma came in the form of a brutal rape by Tom Baker. Speaking from experience, Elizabeth details that it was her friends and family like Lucky and Bobbie who helped pull her through. She encourages Dante to continue to show up and be there as support for his son.

SPECIAL DELIVERY

Next, an officer delivers to Dante the evidence from the pier shooting, which Dante plans on destroying. Before she leaves for her date with Ric, Liz reassured Dante he is doing the right thing to protect Rocco and she has done the same. She has left no record of Rocco’s hospital visit the night of the shooting. Liz leaves for her date.

THE WRONG SUSPECT

Then, Cullum storm troops in to Dante’s office demanding the evidence that the PCPD must have collected at the site of his shooting. Dante says that the evidence must be misfiled in the warehouse, but they will find it. However, Cullum realizes Dante is stalling and lying. Before heading to Dante’s office, Cullum paid a visit to Carly (Laura Wright) and saw a photo of Danny with Jason, triggering him to now believe that Danny may have been the person who shot him in the back on the pier!

DINING WITH RIC

At dinner at Café Cherie, Ric handed Elizabeth the folder with the priceless piece of artwork he’d purchased for her through Ava. Elizabeth loved it and went over to Ric and planted a kiss on him.

Will GH move Elizabeth into a romance with Dante? Do you think Liz and Dante make a cute couple? After today’s episode, it’s clear they very much like and admire one another. If so, what happens to Liz and Ric’s burgeoning repeat romance? Share your thoughts and picks via the comment section below.

GENERAL HOSPITAL: Dante Tells Rocco He Knows He Shot Cullum and Will Protect Son

Published

on

By

In well-played scenes on the Thursday, May 14 episode of General Hospital, Dante (Dominic Zampogna) finally had a talk with his son, Rocco (Finn Carr) informing him that he knows the teen shot Cullum (Andrew Hawkes).

Rocco has dreaded his father finding out, because he is the acting police commissioner of the Port Charles PD and feared his dad will have to arrest him for the crime.

Dante asks Rocco in his own words to recount what happened the night on the pier. He assured his son, he is not going to arrest him and noted there are very extenuating circumstances surrounding the crime.

FATHER AND SON

Rocco explained how he followed Britt  (Kelly Thiebaud) to the pier. Then, how Cullum attacked Britt. Jason (Steve Burton) showed up and fought with Cullum and how the gun came loose.He remembers the other weapon Cullum pulled out to kill Jason and that’s when he shot him.

Next, Dante explained that he was proud of his son for saving Jason and Britt’s lives. He also tells Rocco that he is very concerned in Britt’s involvement in all of this stemming all the way back to the Five Poppies, and feels she is still tied into everything that is happening.

Dante tells Rocco that nobody else can know about this involvement in the shooting. He also touchingly said, that he is his father, he will protect him. However, Rocco is worried that if the truth came out that he shot Cullum, his dad would be in serious trouble for covering up a crime. Dante tells Rocco, he should not worry about that right now, but he needs to stay in Port Charles so he and his mom can keep him safe.

A SHOCKING CALL

Suddenly, as father and son hug it out, Dante gets a call from Justine (Nazneen Contractor), alerting him to the fact that she just met with Cullum and he is looking for the evidence and the file from his shooting. Dante rolls his eyes, knowing things are about to go from bad to worse, and how is he going to keep his son safe from the evil WSB Director?

NOTABLE PERFORMANCES

Dominic Zamprogna always delivers a nice counterbalance to the often histrionics of other characters in Port Charles in his portrayal of Dante Falconeri. So that, when Dante breaks or gets emotional, it counts. Finn Carr has continually shined in the storyline as Rocco continues to teeter on the edge of knowing what he has done and being wracked with guilt. Next up has to be Danny learning his brother is the reason Jason was carted away. Stay tuned!

So, what did you think of the scenes between Dante and Rocco? How on earth will Dante keep Rocco safe? Share your thoughts via the comment section.
