Nelle – looking forward to the end of this crazy nightmare!

Leave TV and go into another room. If I hear Nelle or trial, don’t pay attention..Come back when something else is on of DVR and FF through those scenes. I will look forward to when the tides turn and Nell and Ava get whats they deserve

Carly is FINALLY getting what she deserves! Many of us are happy about that even if the story isn’t “riveting.” Ava? Love Ava.

Rebecca ,,

” riviting” and GH are Antonyms aha!
And- I want the Real Ava back! the fisty loveable nasty woman that actually has a personality unlike this nun-like version of Ava= ucky

Hey, su000:

I still think Ava is “loveable and feisty!” I like that she’s not nasty; she’s so cute now, LOL. But her claws are still there; they came out to get Avery back and they’ve come out to get Bensch. She’s been trying to reform, which I like. It shows she has a conscience and a soul. The fire transformed her inside and out; though she’s still very insecure. But, she still has an edge about her. The old Ava isn’t gone; just comes out when it needs to.

Pisses me off when all these Carly fans think Ava is pure “evil” and Carly is some saint. I have no idea what show they’re watching.

Yeah, Susan, some trial…
I am no fan of Carly….but, I certainly didn’t want any abuse coming her way. I wouldn’t have minded a little jail time ( will never forget her part in catapulting AJ’s death), but is this what they do in mental institutions?
I thought it was a bit ridiculous watching Goliath crack his knucles—what will he do? Massive hulk beating on a woman?
Then, of course, here comes Jason, the hero, to the rescue.
I think I’ve seen this movie before. More than once.

I think this just depicts the abuse that goes on in some of these places by unscrupulous “medical” staff. Not sure if you ever saw One Flew Over The Cuckoo’s Nest with Jack Nicholson but this is a similar scenario where Nurse Rachet (sp?) abuses her patients verbally, with drugs and shock therapy. Freaky, scary film! But excellent.

nelle is shocked. and mike opening up to sonny.

Interested in Anna and Finn for sure! It helps me forget about this Peter nonsense for a bit.

I wish I could forget, too, Sylvia…..but, how can we? Anna is Peter’s mother ( what a travesty); each time we see her, or hear her name; visions of Peter haunts the mind….at least gor me.

Can’t wait for nelle to go down

OH MY GOD – I commented that it’d been a WEEK celebration… going without Carly… as she was in “jail” awaiting her COURTship.. i thought whoopee the Nurses’ Ballin has been saved.

as she’s sitting their like a log.. not even, grappling with her grave situation… as she puppy dog with earnest look @Sonny. one after the other… “witness” shin dig… it’s so stale ; no drama ; NOTHING

this is Laura Wright emmy reel 2018. THIS IS THE WORST WRITING EVER

i also cannot stomach this pillow talk… Rock Hudson / Doris Day…
with Michael Easton and Finola Hughes… this is bullshit.

Wes Ramsey and Dr. Leisl. where’s his bedpan ? is he constipated.. sure sounds like it.

sorry tale again… with the wasted James DePaiva… sorry.. even i will post.. Hayley Erin must also not be in to this.. it’s her worst effort up this point.

THE ONE DOOZY – OK , TWO

Molly Burnett is ; MAXie Jones… period
her comeraderie and easy banter and dialogue shared with her fellow castmates stratosphere. how can any one… still buy in to , how Kirsten Storms is forever known.. as the ditzy airhead gimmicky showless. Molly Burnett stopped the show with “CHASE”

GH SUMMER PROMO only SIZZLE – Kim and Julian. PLUS DREW / OSCAR

I was right about how this Sonny / Mike story is being all neatly wrapped .. Mike shares with Felix – HOW, HE – moved the body close to home. alas, which i am not ready for.. because of Max Gail PERFORMANCE.. with his lady love Stella. course.. if Andre decides to help him out… like he’s helping Drew.

by all account (s) post alerts.. this show should be in last

Patrick ! 🙂
You said straight out!
I totally agree with this

”Molly Burnett is ; MAXie Jones… period

^^^ that is exactly how I see it ..

I demand! lol, that Valentin stops kissing Nina’s feet.
He is Cassidine and he is an embarrassment to Cassisine name.
He is billed as the devil incarnate, the Cassidine that put the fear in Helena, and he is being written as a lovesick wussy bordering on being henpecked..
So yah! I want Valentin to be the devil incarnate!

Anna and Finn are horrible!
there is no spark they are ridiculous, actually.
(Alexas and Finn were much much much better)

Carly will be fine Jason will save her, as usual.

Fr, O, is being horribly written, She is Not a kooky hatchet woman, she is hardcore devious and a player, not a butcher.

Nelle, for godssake, kill her– either kill her off or move on.
I have had too much of Nelle junk to the point of FF from boredom.

Truthfully, I am not impressed by any of GH stories..
And– the couples stink !

I need more Mike! I like him he is entertaining.

Ok, so, I don’t want Nina with Valentin, for probably and indirectly the same reason as you, su….only in reverse.
Nina has had enough complications in her life….Valentin will only bring bushelfuls of more complications—pernicious ones.
I agree about Liesl….this is not how I envisioned her “homecoming”—-‘hatchet’ in hand.
I liked Finn and Alexis, too, SuzieQ…
Now, do you see what TPTB are doing? So, if Alexis FACES her demon(s) ( Julian), she will recognize the reasoning behind her choices of men?
Sure!! This is just a convenient excuse to bring them back together—after they have hashed out their issues……let’s not forget the knife he held to her throat—-no excuses.
I’m done with this….just ehen I started to respect Alesis her strength. …hope I’m wrong.
Julian could have stopped his sister, or could have made Alexis aware of what was going on. Stupid writers who think we are also stupid.
Now, I bet that was not Dr Kevin facing Carly…..how could he be in two places at once? His brother? The one I heard so much about?? Is he the one behind the ‘alteration’ of Carly’s mind? Does she realize the stupor AJ was in because of her? Again, Karma.
Was that real?!
If I see that giant cracking his knuckles again, I will scream..

Nancy Lee Grahn’s Star-Studded ALS Fundraiser Reveals “I’ll Be There” Video Featuring Soap Opera Notables

Talk about your impressive line-up! It’s a soap fans dream and for a great cause. General Hospital’s Nancy Lee Grahn (Alexis Davis) is prepping her one-night only ALS fundraiser which will feature many of her friends and co-stars.

The benefit is set for May 4th in Glendale, California. Slated to participate are Genie Francis, Jane Elliot, Peter Bergman, Maurice Benard, Eileen Davidson, Thorsten Kaye, Michelle Stafford, Stephen Nichols, Rena Sofer, Jason Thompson, Kelly Monaco, Melissa Claire Egan, Maura West, Kristina Wagner, Gregory Harrison, Trevor St. John, Kate Mansi, Kirsten Storms, Cynthia Watros, and many others.

On Wednesday, Grahn took to her social media and released an “I’ll be there” video shout-out featuring, Monaco, Elliot, Bergman, Bernard, West, Harrison, St. John and more. In a touching and important moment in the new video, Michelle Strogny, who is battling ALS, is featured.

Previously, in speaking with Soap Opera Digest on the impetus of the event, Grahn recalled, “I was actually doing Zoom events during Covid and I met this woman that I just fell in love with, Michelle Strojny. At the time, Michelle had been living with ALS for four years. Now, it’s five years. She is a mom of a teenage son, she has the most wonderful husband, and she has been dealing with this [disease] for quite a while. And obviously, there isn’t a cure yet. It’s not survivable yet. But as she says, it’s not incurable. Nothing is; it’s underfunded. But anyway, I just really dug this woman. She is so grounded and filled with grace, and she spends all of her time working to raise money for the cause. We did a fundraiser for her last year and then I thought, ‘You know what? The soaps don’t ever get together to do something for charity.’ Collectively, we have this amazing community and we don’t collectively use it for a good cause, and I think it’s such an easy thing for us to do and we could potentially really make a difference.”

As GH viewers know, Gregory Harrison is playing the character of Gregory Chase, who is also battling ALS in a touching storyline that is currently playing out shedding a light on this disease.

‘General Hospital’ Writer Shannon Peace Let Go, and Shares on Sprina: “One of My Only Regrets is to Not Have the Opportunity to Develop That ‘Ship’ Further”

As General Hospital’s new head writing team of Elizabeth Korte and Patrick Mulcahy gets off the ground and running, there are still changes a foot on the writing team.

Now comes word via breakdown writer Shannon Peace that she is no longer on contract with the long-running ABC soap heading into its 61st season. Peace shared a heartfelt message on her Instagram, thanking the fans, and the show for the opportunity and the importance of diversity in the writers room.

Peace began, “After almost 3 years on staff and 106 episodes penned, I am no longer on contract with General Hospital. Writing for this country’s longest running television serial drama has been an education of epic proportions; I will forever be grateful that I earned my WGA card on a daytime fixture that holds memories for so many.” (Peace pictured below with GH EP Frank Valentini and script writer, Charlotte Gibson from about ten months ago).

Shannon added “Even more importantly, as the sole Black breakdown writer (and only POC in the writers room) during my tenure, I pushed for vital interactions and discussions that prioritized inclusion, visibility, and representation”

The writer pointed to the example of vital interaction when in story, “Stella and Portia’s frank July 2022 conversation about the role race played in Esme’s framing of Trina is just one example of the impact I’m gratified to have had.”

Acknowledging former GH co-head writers was also part of Peace’s farewell expressing, “Appreciation to my former bosses, Chris Van Etten and Dan O’Connor – not only taking a chance on me, but for valuing my opinion and championing my voice.”

Many GH fans know that Peace was key to the development of the love story between Trina Robinson and Spencer Cassadine as played by Tabyana Ali and Nicholas Chavez. Shannon gave a special shout-out to ‘Sprina’ fans, “I also want to thank fans who were supportive of my work, especially the recognition of my love for ‘Sprina’. One of my only regrets is not having to develop that ‘ship’ further.”

She concludes her statement with,”In the aftermath of a historic writer’s strike that shed new light on the troubling ways writers are regarded in daytime, my sincere hope is that General Hospital recommits to valuing staff writer efforts and input, with a more intentional focus on diverse viewpoints — and thrives for another 60 years.”

Accompanying her post, Shannon added, “Thank you all for the love and support these last few years. I hope GH fans get all they hope for and more!”

So, what do you think about GH not renewing Shannon’s contract? Will there be more continued changes afoot? What do you think is the future of ‘Sprina’ anyway at this point as viewers wait to see if Nicholas Chavez officially returns to the show?  Comment below.

GENERAL HOSPITAL: Jason Learns Britt Died and Tells Anna He Has Been Working For Cates Since November 2021

On the Tuesday, March 26th of General Hospital, Anna (Finola Hughes) and the viewers learn about where Jason (Steve Burton) has been for over two and half years. However, Jason gets some news of his own.

Anna is visiting Jason at the PCPD interrogation room. She asks him if he shot Dante (Dominic Zamprogna), which he flatly denies. Anna believes him, but she tells Jason it doesn’t matter, because video footage shows him on the roof at the time of the shooting

When talk turns to Jason not willing to speak without his lawyer present, Anna can’t grasp why Jason would instead spend an hour alone talking with John Cates (Adam J. Harrington).

It is then that Anna brings up that John went by “Jagger” and that the two of them knew each other in high school. Jason doesn’t recall much of his time in high school following his brain injury, but then he gets furious realizing John knew about “Jason’s” past. That is when Jason slams the table and tells Anna, “I’ve been working for John Cates since November 2021.”

Next, Jason explains further that he has been working as an informant for the FBI. Anna wants to know how this came about and he tells her that after the tunnel collapsed, and he couldn’t make it to Britt (Kelly Thiebaud)… all of a sudden he sees Anna’s face drop.  Anna is the first person to tell him that Britt died and was murdered. She tells Jason the killer is in custody, but he continues to be shocked, overwhelmed with tears welling up in his eyes. Realizing he has to pivot to save his life, Jason continues telling Anna how he wound up working with John.

Jason explains that after the tunnel collapse in Greece, FBI agents grabbed him and placed him under arrest and took him to Quantico where he met John. At Quantico, John played a recording of RICO violations and offered Jason a deal if he agreed to be an informant against Pikeman, the illegal arms dealer.

Anna hears from Jason that he thinks Pikeman is selling illegal arms to anyone flagged by the NSA but has ties to the WSB which they needed a civilian to infiltrate their organization as a military soldier, a mercenary.

Jason tells Anna he was a part of the team brought into eliminate Sonny (Maurice Benard). Every time an attempt was made on Sonny’s life over the last two years, a different team was sent to do the job. Anna gets furious when she learns that John told Jason his job was to kill Sonny and she was with John at the warehouse that night. Jason ensured the sniper missed Sonny and left the rifle behind. However, they were supposed to meet an extraction team. Before he was shot, Dante saw it was Jason on the roof and when he turned around with his hands over his head, Dante was shot by the other guy. Jason says if Dante dies, he’ll be charged with capital murder and then will be useless to the FBI.

Meanwhile, John visits Bobbie’s and runs into Carly (Laura Wright). She learns Jason is in custody and is going to head to the PCPD. Before she does, Carly has some words with Cates when she learns not only does John have a vendetta against Sonny, but Jason too.  Carly tells John he should recuse himself from the case.

So, what did you think about the moment when Jason learned Britt died? What do you think of Jason’s return storyline thus far and what we learned about Jagger/Jason and more? Comment below. But first, check out a moment from today’s GH with Jason and Anna.
