This week on General Hospital the truth came out on all fronts; as Olivia (Lisa LoCicero) put two and two together and realized Ned (Wally Kurth) cheated on her with Alexis (Nancy Lee Grahn). Meanwhile, Alexis figured out Tracy (Jane Elliot) framed her to make it look like she passed out drunk behind the wheel.
Throughout, there were great performances from Wally Kurth, Jane Elliot and Nancy Lee Grahn, but it was soap vet, Lisa LoCicero, who for us was given the material and stole the show with her heartbreaking performances as a woman scorned.
LoCicero plays Olivia Falconeri from Bensonhurst, so believably, that viewers understand her every woman, who married into the well-to-do Quatermaines, and who has a much higher moral and ethical standard then the Q’s.
In key scenes at the Quartermaine mansion, Olivia confronts Ned about the night he never came home, and she wants the truth. She also rightly accuses Tracy on being part of the cover-up. A caught Ned confesses. He tells Olivia he was in a terrible place, and jumped to the wrong conclusion about her and Robert (Tristan Rogers), and began drinking, which Sam (Kelly Monaco) overhears and can’t believe he was drinking with an alcoholic. Olivia says that Ned is incapable of being trustworthy after spending his entire life amongst a house full of liars and cheats. Meanwhile, Alexis shows up in the middle of all this to confront Tracy on her machinations setting the stage for a showdown between Olivia and Alexis.
When Alexis and Olivia talk in private, the former legal eagle apologizes to her friend for sleeping with her husband; saying they both knew it was wrong right after it happened, but Olivia quickly points out that they didn’t seem to stop themselves or think it was wrong, while he was unbuttoning his pants or she was taking off her blouse!
Olivia stands her ground through her devastation and is appalled that Alexis calls her a “friend” and how she is only showing remorse because she has been caught!

Courtesy/ABC
When Ned tries to talk to Olivia and professes how much he loves her and how sorry he is for having sex in a drunken stupor with Alexis, Olivia is gut-punched. Ned continually says he thought Olivia and Robert hooked-up thanks to Brook Lynn deleting messages meant for Ned. The fact that he would assume the worst of her, only made things worse for Ned, and then to go as far as having revenge sex with Alexis, made Olivia feel her husband had sunk to new lows.
It is then Olivia has a moment of reckoning; wondering what is her role in the Quartermaine family anyway, and how she doesn’t really fit in. Ned promises to wait for her and begs her not to give up on them. When he leaves, Liv breaks down … her marriage in pieces and betrayed by all those she thought she could trust.
Each of the aforementioned moments were played to perfection by LoCicero, leaving the audience wondering just what will Olivia do next and how will she bounce back from this betrayal. That is why Michael Fairman TV names Lisa our pick for The Power Performance of the Week. And, if it’s one thing we know about Olivia, she is a scrappy fighter, a survivor, and in the capable hands of this actress, we will be rooting for her all along the way.
So, what did you think of the performance of Lisa LoCicero? Do you hope Olivia and Ned work things out and they stay together, or do you want to see if she and Robert Scorpio might have a new romance? Comment below.
Who is the next up for the sick dying drama?
0ohh it’s Tracy!
After that a blind person and a penis cancer, ohh Morgan is already having that problem..
OK then we need an alcoholic or drug addict, I’d imagine cancer next, coming soon..
J-S have a variety of diseases for their riveting drama…
Going through the daily bipolar psychotherapy sessions/scenes with Morgan is more than enough medical junk for me..
Did you perhaps miss the title of the show, pal?
I’d love more medical stories!
LMAO
hey Dylan..
the hospital is a building, a building..
it was all the Nurses and Doctors OF general hospital that GH was about not about filling up the beds that we have to watch those characters go through their treatments, and that godawful boring stuff ..
Hey Su, the name of the show is General Hospital. Not General Sitcom. Go find a half hour sitcom or some cartoons to watch if you’re looking for comedy. At its core, medical stories have always been what GH has been about since day one. Some of the best storylines in the history of the show have revolved around medical issues. The Stone/Robin AIDS story, BJ’s heart, Monica’s breast cancer, Alan’s drug addiction, AJ’s alcohol addiction, Sonny’s bipolar disorder, Lulu’s aplastic anemia when she was a baby that brought the Cassadine’s back to town, the encephalitis virus outbreak, just to… Read more »
Hi Dan.. The ”hospital” brought GH to near its cancelastion. Then entered- Gloria Monty She moved away from the hospital setting and moved toward more action/adventure and mystery Despite these bumps in popularity, by 1978, General Hospital was on death row and in need of a pardon. That pardon arrived in the form of dynamo Gloria Monty, a director from The Secret Storm. She teamed with writers Douglas Marland and Pat Falken Smith, and little did any of them realize that General Hospital would soon make soap opera history. NBC President Fred Silverman gave Gloria Monty thirteen weeks to bring… Read more »
I agree Dan. I love humor and I love it when a character lets loose now and then BUT it is a hospital and people go there to get help. If none of the characters ever got sick, drove off a cliff or got shot we would be stuck with watching Nathan cuddling up to a black poodle! Which by the way was funny and it was great to see Maxie’s mom!
Thank you Dan! 🙂
Not sure where you cut-and-pasted that from, Su, but “NBC President” Fred Silverman didn’t say boo to Gloria Monty, since GH is, and always has been, on ABC. By the way, Glo-Mo herself was on record as saying she occasionally had to remind the writers that they were “getting a little far afield from the hospital.” If GH did indeed “move away fro the hospital setting” during her tenure, I’m not sure whether that was because of her efforts; it could just as easily have been in spite of them. In other words, just because somebody wrote it (and somebody… Read more »
I think Dan made a very valid point to Su. GH is not a sitcom, it’s not played for laughs and it wasn’t conceived as high adventure. I think many of us love the quips, sarcasm, charm thay so many great characters brought and still bring to the show. And the days of the WSB…Anna, Robert, Sean…the hgh adventure are unparalled on GH. Action, intrigue.suspense are all great. I’m not sure if any of fhe current characters could pull that off now. The closest recent attempt was when they went to save Robin the first time. Anna, Dr. O, Patrick,… Read more »
Hi, su. I thought Morgan had an erectile dysfunction problem because of his meds; which happens more often than not, by the way. Was he also diagnosed with penile cancer? I’m not sure.
hey CeeCee,, LOL yea .. both Morgan and Michael Y&R cancer was mainly about him not being able to get it up ahaa! and both were written by J&S as having erectile fail lol GH is near total sick and near dying people, no other substantial stories, just people diseases or broken bodies……….. paralyzed Sonny now most likely Kiki paralyzed too.. Maybe Tracy will become paralyzed too! ohh lil’ Jake will needs lots of help to walk again too.. GH needs walkers and wheelchairs in the budget.. Coming soon.. another cancer story or perhaps herpes !! General Hospital is a… Read more »
I hope, she’s not the next character to go wheelchair… as was rumored argh! the GH writers need to amp up Kiki character any way… and give her new life and layers… she has supplanted her being a recast and has most certainly solidified her stay in Port Charles… to continually peg her with the dimwitted Corinthos’ men… is lame the only part she should have… is when she takes Avery over to see Sonny. otherwise… it’s time for her own journey…. I think it should be Ric Lansing… for starters.. she’s evolved… time for men ps: argh! I’ll have… Read more »
LOL… was referring to last Friday ep: when Carly was leaving the locker rooms … that Dr. Griffin Dunne left well enough alone… he does not want to go their

Dr. Griffin Munro
His little “Sonny” has Kikiitis!
Su, you are a joy to read. I just have so much fun reading some of this stuff.
“GH needs walkers and wheelchairs in the budget”…. You sure have a way of turning something serious into a farce. You are the comic relief GH actually needs.
So, my SuzieQ, are you implying that all these characters are puppets on a string? Too funny…luv you, too.
Lots of people in the hospital, Su. Makes more sense, since the soaps theme should be centered around the doctors, nurses and their patients.
I would rather see people ‘connect’ in the hospital with their woes and tribulations than gun-toting mobsters at pier 54. Lol, SuzieQ.
By the by, I still think Hayden and Tracy are sisters. Yes? Later.
hi CeeCee.. It’s not about mob anything that I need; just some adventure or a mystery to get involved in a whodunit and at the least a wee-bit of humor and grabbing cliffhanger.. I haven’t had an actual WOW! moment in 6 months and that is a sad thing indeed.. With me- it seems I know exactly what will happen. I can envision what’s going to happen and it does happen, that’s no fun.. I did mention that J&S gave their best delivering the sweeps moment of mob action, the action I said they did well.. But it had no… Read more »
su0000, I like you and enjoy posting with you but you are being ridiculous! I know your a huge fan of Ron but be big and give Jean and Shelly credit where it is due! I know there hasnt been a lot of one liners lately but the two ladies are actually writing a story now and not a scene!
hey Timmm… J&S are boring the bejesus outta me with their doom and gloom (not about Ron) And— —> The ”hospital” brought GH to near its cancellation.

Jean and Shelly are doing a good job. They are giving the show some badly needed organization and normalcy which is didn’t have at all on Ron’s watch. GH actually feels like a drama series again instead of a cartoonish outlandish farce. I like their new stories and find them suspensful and like all their new characters. Ron was consisently drawing in the mid two millions in his last four months of the job and had 18 straight weeks of lows in the key demo with the lowest being a 365K turnout in the 18-49. Jean and Shelly got the… Read more »
Good job cutting and pasting from Wikipedia, Su. Or wherever you’re getting that info from that you keep posting. Only one problem, GH never aired on NBC, so you might want to change that before you paste it to someone else, lol.
Hey, SuzieQ….in a roundabout way, you called it. Tracy MAY have cancer.
hey CeeCee..
with Tracy; I’m going with brain worms/parasites- she got infected in Mexico..
Some type of parasite in her gnawing at her brain…
I think that would be cooler than cancer..
hi Dan..
the cut&past, It was not from Wikipedia- it was from an article, a good read..
I did include the link but it didn’t make it/not allowed..
Hi, su.
Yes, it could be an infection, one of which causes lesions in the brain. I have this from a reliable, professional source.
Tracy’s Doctor did say that none of this was confirmed yet. So, we shall see…
How could Griffin be Anna’s son with Duke? I remember Anna had a miscarried while married to Duke and she wasn’t even that far along but it’s a soap….. Could Griffin be Robin’s twin? The look alike and Anna could see the resemblance of Robin in him…And he was Stolen by Faison no doubt, or Anna could’ve been pregnant when Faison’s kidnapped her and she and Robert was in tthat explosion on the tanker and since she had an amnesia she could’ve forgotten about it but both those case scenarios would have Robert as the father.
Three possible scenarios. Griffin is the DnA baby. This is my first choice and I’ll accept any explanation. Griffin is R&A’s “tanker baby.” Would GH then give TR a contract? Or… it could be Faison’s child, for during the time when Anna left GH and was “blown up” and before she arrived in Pine Valley, she had amnesia, as you said.
I want Griffin to be the DnA baby. For DnA fans, devastated by what FV/RC did to Duke and to Duke and Anna. And for Anna, as it would bring her peace at last.
Well AMC brought back Erica’s aborted fetus as a fully grown adult, so I guess anything is possible.
That’s right, Melissa. Full grown…whom, by the way, is recurrent on RIZZOLI AND ISLES.
That’s exactly what I’m thinking. Anna has such of wealth of history and part of that history was played off screen so there are endless possibilities. One of the writers said that was her favorite gh period (the late 80’s cartel days)
I would LOVE for Anna and Duke to be Griffin biological parents… however you spin this…. who’s not to say… with all the espionage with the WSB… they knew the dangers… and Anna and Duke set aside their eggs and his seed… donated ? hence… the magnifique … all that is Griffin !
Robin has a brother ! oy! imagine Emma calling Griffin Uncle
dare we not dream
Love that scenario…Anna needs ties to keep her in PC. Finola is such a great actress!
Excellent performances by Finola Hughes and Jane Elliot, two of the all-time greats in GH’s illustrious history. For whatever people want to say about Jean and Shelly’s writing, and personally I think they’re doing a good job, one thing they’ve done for sure is really write some great material for the powerhouse women on this show. Besides Finola and Jane, Laura Wright, Maura West, Kelly Monaco, Rebecca Herbst, Emme Rylan, and Haley Erin have all had their moments to shine recently. Now if we can just get a story for Genie Francis. There has to be something more for her… Read more »
Dan, I am in complete agreement!! Friday’s episode was excellent!
Surely it was a Slimfast bar Genie was eating. Surprised it wasn’t mentioned by name ad nauseam
That’s what I assumed, Robbie. Would have helped if they had mentioned it was a Slim Fast bar. But I guess they don’t pay for advertising like Shriner’s Hospital, or like the Orange Juice Council or whatever they were called back a few years ago, when everyone on the show all of a sudden had to drink and comment on orange juice, lol.
omg, if I hear that whole bloody Schpeel on Shriners Hospital one more time, I’m going to scream! Like College Football talk wasn’t bad enough, now every person at that hospital has to mention it and it doesn’t exactly roll off the tongue easily …… give it a rest GH!
Yes, it definitely was an ‘underhanded’ advertisement, which someone already mentioned and I had agreed. Harry said it was a snickers bar. But, of course, the Slimfast bar makes more sense. I doubt Shriner’s pays the biggies at ABC. I think it is considered a donation/Charity on their part….tax deductible? Needless to say, we cannot compare one with the other. I consider ‘SLIMFAST’ a LUXURY, whereas Shriner’s is an altruistic institution….to help/save children, first and foremost. I do agree with Ces, though. We are now well-versed on the subject. The actors could slip in a couple of words, now and… Read more »
It looked like a Snickers bar to me– but perhaps I was just hungry and I imagined what I was craving– LOL
True about the ladies and true about Laura needing a great story. I don’t know if this is what the writers intended but: The candy bar scene reminded me of early 80’s scenes how Laura was always hungry whenever she and Luke were on the run. It was her quirk back then during times of stress. The only time she wasn’t hungry during an early 80’s hide-out was when she was gravely sick with fever on Cassadine Island. As soon as she recovered her first words were “Luke, I’m hungry” and Luke and Robert laughed and they knew Laura was… Read more »
“I remember it well”–such fond memory too–ahh! for the good old days. (sigh)
You said it! These woman are phenomenal. The writer had a clean up job to do…but the storytelling has been riveting. Loving GH
I would love for Griffin to somehow be the child she and Duke thought they lost… I always wanted them to have had a child together. Finola is such a treasure, whatever the story turns out to be, she will slay as usual.
I really like your post. I don’t see how her and Duke could have had a child. And no offense to anyone, but I was not an Anna and Duke fan, nor a fan of the character of Duke. Maybe because his return made no sense, it was marred by that ridiculous mask storyline with Faison. Maybe it was because Duke spent most of his time playing dress up with Emma, or having conversations with Sonny. Maybe it was because it was it messed with history, because when Anna was presumed dead back in 1992, her and Robert were THE… Read more »
I could certainly see Anna having a child with either or…. Duke or Robert I can honestly say… I never really watched GH till around 2011 ; fulltime so… all I know is the love connection with Duke he loves her like no other… the way he would smile… beaming… treat her like a lady… the dance…. she took him home to Ireland… the lost child they “never” had now, with Robert… oy! he’s so charming and oh so dastardly… his come hither is affecting …. I think that goes without saying WHAT A LUCKY LADY…. they were LUCKY MEN… Read more »
Don’t feel badly, Dylan. I did not like Duke one bit. But I’ve always loved Anna, now and during her stints at AMC. I will get blasted by this, but I hope Duke is gone for good. Just how I feel, that’s all. Even then, at AMC, there was always a whisper of vulnerability within Anna’s aura. As her therapist pointed out, her human-self was fighting to come out. Losing Leora changed Anna…..slowly but surely. Even a woman such as she, full of energy and strength, can only endure so much. This is the result. Let’s hope all will be… Read more »
Hey CeeCee,
I understand how you feel. After a while, couple-wise, I lost interest in Duke and Anna altogether. Yep.
Later, my dear.
There’s nothing wrong with your views on Duke, CeeCee! Back in the day, he was dashing and daring….a perfect balance for Anna. But his return to Port Charles simply fizzled after the initial thrill of his long-fought-for reunion with the “Divine Devane.” This time around, he seemed too aged and broken for her sparlking, ever-youthful vim and vigor….of course, there was still that nostalgic pull for those of us who remembered their romantic heyday, but as time passed, there simply wasn’t enough between them to sustain the fantasy of a HEA ending for them. Accordingly, even though I was very… Read more »
@jaybird
Absolutely, Jay….but, I will never lose interest in Anna. I’m sure you feel the same way…LOL.
Later, my friend.
I hope Griffin is Robert & Anna’s son too!
Dylan and Shay…I do remember Duke as a “dude”…good looking, and in charge of his own gang. But like Shay said, he did “seem aged and broken” after the clinic, and was only left with Joe jobs…except for his tango with Anna at the Nurses Ball. When guys like him, and possibly Julian in the future if he doesn’t watch out, get too tamed they can lose that spark. And speaking of good looking, when you compare Griffin with Duke/Ian’s older pictures, the Doc bears an uncanny resemblance to Duke. There have been so many switcheroo’, and finding long thought… Read more »
Well put, Rose. When former men of action are too tamed, and put into a domesticated situation, they quickly become bland. Witness Luke, Duke and now, Julian. Unless they are partnered with an equally daring and youthful woman, they lose their edge mighty fast. Of course, in Lavery’s case, he still had his alpha female in the ageless Anna, but his long incarceration definitely dampened his own adventurous spirit….(unlike Robert Scorpio and Frisco Jones, who still have it in spades!) The only way to have saved his character would have been through an eventual coupling with Tracy……they could have made… Read more »
I get not getting the Duke love. I loved him back in the day but not so much since his last return from the dead.
I still love Duke, however, I am tired of Anna waxing poetic about him while forgetting the real love of her life, Robert Scorpio.
I really do not want Dr Munroe to be Anna and Duke’s son. I do think he is Anna’s son for sure. I either want him to be a product of Anna and Robert’s or a product of Anna’s and Dr David Hayward’s from AMC.
I totally get that, Harry 1….Duke certainly had a time and place in Anna’s life, but if the truth be told, Robert really and truly was “The One” for her. All it took was his far-too-brief recent appearance to see how their everlasting bond remains to this day. He absolutely must return to her…..nothing else will do in the end, and if they also share a son in addition to the long flown-the-coop Robin, then all the better for this pair of legendary lovers.
Amazing scenes for Anna/Finola to shine! She is wonderful to watch as she truly says so much thru her eyes…and Tracy/Jane has been building up to something for weeks. The best is about to unfold as so much is changing with each of the characters and I’m very excited!
My heart breaks whenever Anna cries… I feel her pain, sorrow &
longing, she moves me beyond tears. Finola is breathtaking in
her scenes, Anna and Dr. Andre have a true connection… I
enjoy them together. The barely touched upon link between
Anna & Griffen should be interesting….
Finola is an acting gem!
Anna was pregnant When she was presumed dead along with Faison and Robert. Thats the only plausible way to give her another child. A child she knew nothing about because of amnesia
If you watched AMC, Anna had a miscarriage and Dr. David Hayward was the father.
It’s unlikely that Dr Munroe is the product of the aforementioned couple. As I vaguely recall, the baby was a little girl.
I think they had that baby and it died having an operation? Or died in-vitro having an operation. Was Helena Cassadine on AMC at the time? Because that would explain the baby’s miraculous resurrection in the form of Griffin!
Color me intrigued about what the connection is between Griffin and Anna. They’re paired well as acting partners as both can say volumes with their facial expressions alone. Also so happy to see Tracey have a problem that does not involve mooning over an unworthy man. I hope her condition is not caused by Larry but a genuine medical condition. Maybe this will usher in ME as a specialist. Sure would be great to get Ned back to visit her too.
Melissa, I dont want Michael to be a doctor OR a detective. Fresh start baby!
I hear you. But what’s left in Port Charles? Mobster? No thank you!
I think contrary to Tracy’s adamant refusal to have Griffin Munroe as her doctor, he’ll be the one to help her. Michael Eastman left GH as a doctor…can’t see him playing yet another. I hope not. I just hope it’s a role with longevity…
That’s what I said I noticed also, Melissa. Something undefinable was palpably exchanged between Munro and Anna. And, as I mentioned earlier, I think it goes back to her life in Pine Valley, or at least, intertwined with it.
@Timmm.
I do agree that Hayden is somehow linked to Tracy. I did suggest that she may be Edward’s daughter or Larry’s, in which case making her Ned’s sister.
Have Ned and Hayden ever met? Can’t recall.
Well that would be interesting if there is an AMC connection and consistent with FV’s inclinationto draw in other ABC soaps into the GH-verse!
Is Haydens Pauls daughter or Astons…is the new Doctor Anna’s son with Duke or Robert or with someone she had met in Pine Valley-didnt she have a sister there-then he could be a nephew?”…what about Nathan-remember his mutter warning him about his father-then the story dropped…will Laura ever open her letter from Luke-maybe her long lost father is really alive and Luker knows-another dropped story…who gives a fluke-i sorta do…lol…and why isnt Laura in the opening credits with Lulu and Nik?
Don’t know if they’ll ever let Laura open that letter; after all, it was address to “My Angle” rather than “My Angel”–lol. Just look it up! (Sigh–spellcheck, anyone?)
HA! Nancy, love the word play.
It becomes increasingly more obvious than not, nancy, that TPTB have not yet decided the contents/context of the letter. Ergo, the interminable waiting. There is a possibility Laura has already read the letter behind the scenes. Nonetheless, my guess is, ‘they’ are withholding disclosure until such time a storyline for Laura is ‘conjured up’. I hope that’s the plan, and soon, because it strikes me as so senseless and offensive to Genie, to use her as a fixture. I simply love this woman….what a waste of talent. It is so irritating to just watch her professionalism and superlative acting serve… Read more »
With the clues that have been thrown out so far, jimh, it would seem that Hayden should not be Paul’s daughter. (And I hope she isn’t….I don’t want to see her related to anybody that would ensure her future place on the GH canvas.) Unless she is the offspring of someone that Tracy knew and admired without having been previously seen on GH, the only person I can think of that fits the description is Joe Scully Jr…..even though he was a deplorable character, Ms. Quartermaine thought the world of him! With whom else has she been involved throughout the… Read more »
Its probably Larry…with Ned returning to visit his ill mother he will probably learn Hayden is his sister…i really did like RB when she was Michelle on Guiding Light but i not so much here as Hayfever-she is like an irritating itchy rash but she is a little more interesting than Sappy who makes me feel real crappy-lol…i really liked Britt with Nik and hope she returns someday!
Shay, once again we agree.
Hayden is about as useless as those Macy’s One Day Screaming commercials which are on, well, every day, which rather negates the “one day” modifier.
HAYDEN! ONE DAY SALE!
I have a feeling, without strong theories, just a gut feeling, Hayden will be Ned’s sister. If Tracy is seriously ill, Ned will have to reappear and if he is there, why not give him a sister he never knew to battle with? Wally and Rebecca would be great to see go toe to toe!
I simply cannot warm up to Hayden….I find her eminently unlikeable…she certainly cannot hold a candle to Britt! But then most of the newbies leave me wanting. For example, today I was all jazzed when the show came on and there were the too cute Maxie and Nathan heading back to their cozy little apartment….but no sooner did they open the door, and there was Nina pushing in….was that a collective audible groan coming from the audience, or was it just me???? Quite frankly, I’m just plain bored, and hanging by a thread in hopes that Anna’s promising storyline and… Read more »
I agree Shay. Not a fan of Nathan but love Maxie. Either way, they cannot even take their shoes off and wandering Nina is there, god awful Mudder and then Freako! Ugg!
SHAY, Hayden is a little cuddle bunny! Why dont you like her? I dont like Britt. She reminds me of Megan Fox and I am no big fan of hers! Mudder is a cartoon character. [One trick pony!] Nathan is handsome but his acting abilities have not grown one bit. He seems like he is on the show for eye candy purposes only! What do you think of ME’s new character being a doctor? I’m sad. I expected something totally different! I hope this is a twist and he is a doctor on steroids with his hand in Helena’s Will… Read more »
Jimmy, great point, why not revisit that letter from Luke? They have searched high and low for a story for Laura. That letter could send her in MANY different directions.
Yes, Timmbo, I’m well-aware that Nathan tops the list of your not-so-fave characters…LOL! But having said that, I do agree with you on Maxie! She can be a loose cannon, but at least she’s fresh, fun and fashionable! (I don’t even mind the usually annoying Lulu when those two have a girlie gab!) But having Nina increasingly barging into her scenes really kills it for me….it just doesn’t work. however, as for Mutter? She can cut in anytime! Kathleen Gati is so seriously under-utilized these days that whenever she appears, it elevates the scene!
Jane Elliot is just superb! I think she’s having an aneurysm; not a seizure. That’s not something I’ve seen on a soap before. And, of course, Finola Hughes, always hits it out of the park! I hope she finally has some peace. Can’t wait to see Anna with her granddaughter again. When I watched the first scenes of Griffin with Sonny in the chapel, I thought he might be related to Stone. I think they look similar enough to be related. Don’t know why he’s so interested in Anna other than a connection to Robin, if he’s related to Stone,… Read more »
ok so heres my theory on Anna and Griffin, i’m not sure how old the character is suppose to be, but if like the character like the actor is in their 30’s then its more plossible that he’s Robins twin, and twin do run in Anna’s family as she herself has a twin sister. if the character is younger, well anna and robert were presumed dead back in 92, so if we assume anna was pregnant when she was on the run then that could also be a possibility but that would put the character in their early 20’s and… Read more »
Another good episode. The acting and writing has been spot on. Tracy seemed to be having a seizure so it’s probably gonna be epilepsy and this will be Dr. Griffin’s first big test as the new neurologist at the hospital. I have to say that was a scary frightening ending to this episode to see Tracy like that. Jane Elliott is selling this storyline like a champ. I really enjoyed the scenes with Tracy and Hayden and liked the fact they weren’t overly snarky or threatening to each other for once. I kinda got a kick out of Hayden running… Read more »
Prediction: Griffin is Anna’s son with Robert. I just knew there had to be a reason back in November why they gave a single woman like Anna a new big house to live in and it looks like a mansion. I was trying to figure out what could be the need for this much space and Emma coming to visit on spring/summer breaks wouldn’t warrant a new set. Well, it appears now that I may have my answer, and Anna is likely getting a son. I actually think that Anna/Griffin look alike in the face and I heard that Matt… Read more »
I think I read he auditioned with Emme Rylan and not Rebecca Herbst.
Well, if that keeps Lulu out of Dante’s future orbit, then I’m glad to consider this pairing!

I so want for Nina to let go of her inner child and stand IN the ranking, with; the men will follow… since Julian has been ‘cleansed’ why not have Nina and Julian “fighting” over control and all of him at the same time…
Oh, my dear, Patrick…..I would love for Nina to dig deep within herself and find even a remnant of Phyllis’s stinging; waspish; pungent smarts and gloriously defiant, revolutionary brain. Take over the darned magazine and turn it into something wonder our. So there! Right? LOL.
Imagine that….fire in her eyes, searing Julian right where it hurts….EVERYWHERE.
I wish TPTB would ‘lend’ Nina some of their ‘power’, and make it happen.
Wondrous…not wonder our…
The Shriners Hospital infomercial on GH is a bit of quid pro quo; “This for that”. “I want something, you want something.
You give me what I want, I’ll give you what you want. Thing?
The Shriners Hospital for Children Facebook is highly promoting GH on it’s facebook asking everybody to watch through the months time is will be spotlighted GH..
Shriners posting a lot of, watch GH ..
I have no problem with Shriner’s Hospital being part of GH occasionally. Better than Laura eating the chocolate bar the other day.
Ahha Laura was devouring that bar like she hadn’t eaten in days lol
it made me really hungry for a candy bar lol..
Hayden cannot be Paul’s daughter as she and Tracy were clearly talking about him in the same breath that they referred to Paul. And they talked about how ruthless her father WAS…past tense. Maybe a mob boss that Tracy knew…Tracy obviously KNEW him well. I tried to rethink Tracy’s past to come up with a villain that has passed on. Can’t come up with anyone….too much history.
I just saw an old magazine cover of soap opera digest with finola ian Buchanan and Tristan Rogers and omg GH matt Cohen/griffin monro looks like Tristan Rogers, I hope he (griffin) turns out to be Anna and Robert’s offspring this is just to good to pass up.
I think Larry drugged Tracy and you are seeing the effects now. I dont know why it took so long?
Anna is lonely and has no one. Hmmm, they are setting her up with a visit from Emma.
Either way, I give GH major credit for putting two dynamite stars front and center! Anna and Tracy will hold up any story with their weight in talent!
I hope Griffin is Anna and Duke’s son. I think he is the one following Anna. BUT, could it be Duke?
“Let’s hear it for the ladies!”
Hip, hip, hurray, ….for the ladies!!! I mean that with all my heart, nancy.
Okay, Timmm. Let’s say Larry slipped a Mickey in Tracy’s drink. How does that cause lesions in her brain? I think that’s what the doctor said. Seizures normally happen when the electric impulses in the brain go awry ( my husband said that…LOL)…, which can be triggered by drugs, alcohol or a mix of these. So, you have a point. But, abnormal tissue in the brain causes lesions…malignant, benign or infectious. I am wondering why Tracy is still lying to Dillon about her health. Could she have a drug problem, behind the scenes, and we are just finding out about… Read more »
Tell your husband to lay off the reality, we need an escape! [JK] Medically, I dont know the answer but I think it was odd for Larry to pop up and than disappear again. I think we will find out the perhaps he HAS been in contact with Hayden and they are working together OR Hayden is setting her daddy up? She claims to get ill just by hearing his name. Eventually Larry will land in jail BUT I’d like to see him back at the Q mansion for a bit since Ned is returning.
The acting has been amazing the last week.
Laura Wright, Maura West, Finola Hughes, Jane Elliott, Maurice Benard, Roger Howarth, Richard Burgi, and Bryan Craig have delivered the goods.
Amen!
Yes Jay and the writing has been up to par! Those two =better ratings!
I’m thrilled when they give Jane Elliot something interesting to work with.
Thats it Patricia, the talent is there, we need the stories and Jean and Shelly have been doing well.
I think Tracy has a rare disease from traveling….maybe bugs in her brain or something. It’s definitely a disease unique to traveling to Mexico, and something not com only diagnosed, so doctors don’t u ally think of is. A house type of medical stay if you will.
