GH’s Kristina Wagner On Felicia’s Concern Over Maxie’s Emotional State
While Maxie (Kirsten Storms) knows exactly where baby Louise is, not many other people know, especially her mother, Felicia (Kristina Wagner).
Now, with Kristina Wagner back on-contract at General Hospital, it opens up more angles to play in the ongoing saga of “What happened to Maxie and Peter’s (Wes Ramsey) Baby?”
GH viewers know that Louise is “Bailey” and being taken of by Brook Lynn Quartermaine (Amanda Setton). However, according to the latest issue of Soap Opera Digest on newsstands now, look for Felicia to be very worried over Maxie’s attitude toward finding her baby.
Wagner shared to SOD on Felicia: “She is absolutely concerned about Maxie. Why is she behaving this way? Is she traumatized to a point where she is not frantically looking for her baby?”
The actress goes on to say about her alter-ego: “Felicia thinks ‘What is wrong with you? Your baby’s missing. Why are you not (falling apart)?’ And Maxie says, ‘I have to stay calm for my other children.’ She has a way of justifying it, but Felicia is questioning Maxie’s behavior.”
Look for Felicia to be more determined than ever to help find Maxie’s baby, which we know could spell trouble for everyone!
So, do you hope Felicia learns the truth about Louise, and helps Maxie with her cover-up? Or do you hope Felicia helps get the little one back in Maxie’s arms sooner than later? Share your thoughts in the comment section below.
I think it’s actually kind of insulting that Anna, Felicia, and Mac – with all their combined years in cop and/or spy related experience – can’t seem to put 6+6+6 together with the obvious clues that Maxie knows EXACTLY where her baby is, and that’s why she’s not as upset about her “missing” child as one would expect her to be.
Furthermore, if Louise were REALLY missing, wouldn’t Maxie have called her daddy Frisco about it by now? Yes, they don’t have the ideal father/daughter relationship, but there’s no way that Frisco wouldn’t overturn every rock between Hell and Port Charles looking for his grandchild, if Maxie asked him to. And are we to believe that Frisco knows nothing about any of this??
Of course this is all being dragged out for the purposes of propping Whiny Heiny, and to a lesser degree, Chase – who inserted himself into the situation.
Satan, I love you dearly, but please don’t cast my darling Chase in a bad light. But your point is well made: Chase can figure out this mess, and Tracy in even less time. But the intrepid WSB is at a loss once again. It must be embarrassing for intelligent actors like Finola Hughes and Tristan Rogers to “play dumb”. At least when Dante plays dumb, it’s entirely believable…almost second nature.
I’m neutral on Chase. Don’t hate him, don’t really like him…. I just don’t think he belonged in this story. Val the bastard was really a much better fake daddy for that poor kid, because he had his own issues with Whiny Heiny, and in my most unholy opinion, it would have been better if Maxie & BrookLynn had let him in on the plan. Yeah he might have been upset that BrookLynn lied to him to preserve her family’s business interest, but he would have kept up the act to keep the kid safe from Heiny.
Chase SHOULD have issues with Heiny – he did almost poison him to death after all – but he seems to have forgotten all about that.
I absolutely adore Chase but wish they’d stop writing him as some hapless Disney character. As far as both you and Satan pointing out the obvious; that is, that the WSB experts and detectives were unable to connect the dots, is insulting at best, and of course, I agree. Geez. Please end this irritating, endless and stupid storyline! But of course to do that, they’d have to kill off Peter. For some inexplicable reason, they are unable kill off a character all the fans hate but are perfectly able to kill off babies. Back to the subject at hand; I am delighted to see the effervescent Felicia back. I love her, and I love her dynamics with Maxie. Kristen Wagner’s Felicia is a true treasure, and so ageless. I just love her.
You’re right about KW aging very well. For the second time this month, the hair department harkened back to a classic style. First, Tracy and her retro braid buns, then Tuesday, Felicia with a braided ponytail at yoga. Granted, back in the day KW had much longer hair, but it still is reminiscent of her first years on the show.
Satan-Mac has been more of a father to Maxie than Frisco has ever been. Frisco is Maxie’s father in name only. Mac, however, has been a consistent presence in Maxie’s life.
The unfortunate writing of Frisco as a “deadbeat dad” isn’t the issue here though. It’s the fact that he’s the supposed leader of the WSB, which is supposed to be an elite spy/law enforcement agency. Certainly somebody who one would want to have as a resource if their child was missing.
So in other words, a big red flag to the fact that the child is not actually missing.
At least the writers finally realized they were missing a beat (or 2) in this storyline. Thank goodness Tracy is being portrayed as her normal smart self and easily figured it out. Then again, she knew BLQ was never pregnant.
How much longer do they need to stretch Heinrik’s existence on this show?
I think Felicia should just come right out and ask Maxi if she knows more than she is saying. She doesn’t seem to bothered by upsetting her in other ways even going to such lengths of going to G.H and seeking out a doctor friend for help.
Has she ever asked herself if Maxi doesn’t want her baby found, then why not and go from there. I can’t believe that she and the others have not figured out the obvious answer, PETER!

GENERAL HOSPITAL: Carly Fears Escalating Tensions Between Sonny and Josslyn: ‘I’ve Already Lost One Kid Because of That Man. I Won’t Lose Another’
On the Thursday, November 12 episode of General Hospital, as battles line are drawn by Carly’s (Laura Wright) ex-husband, Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard) and her daughter, Josslyn Jacks (Eden McCoy), she realizes things are about to get a whole lot worse, and she expressed her fears to Valentin Cassadine (James Patrick Stuart).
After Sonny came to see Carly to get her daughter to back off of him; especially when Josslyn lit into him in front of nuAvery (Ayla Bullington), Carly is terrified that Sonny could retaliate against Josslyn. Realizing, Josslyn is in danger, Carly won’t sit by and let anything happen to her. She tells Valentin, “I’ve already lost one kid because of that man. I won’t lose another.”
Viewers won’t soon forget the devastation Carly felt when Morgan (Bryan Craig) died in a car bomb explosion back in 2016 because of Sonny’s dealings in the mob in a complex story involving Julian (William deVry) and Olivia Jerome (Tonja Walker).

SONNY IS READY FOR WAR
Meanwhile in the aftermath of his visit with Carly, Sonny told his brother Ric what went down when Josslyn disrespected him in front of his own daughter and hurt Avery. Since Josslyn already make it known that she no longer considers herself part of Sonny’s family, he’s decided to treat her accordingly.
Sonnys first step in payback is to take away her support system at JJE by approaching Hudson Parker (Troy Lennon Appel) again, but this time in a much less-friendly way.
Ric points out that this would go against every move Sonny made as a legitimate businessman in Port Charles and would mean he’s back in the mob? Sonny doubles down, saying Josslyn changed the game when she involved Avery. While he showed concern of how bad Carly would feel over all this year, he said he is ready to finish what Josslyn started.
At the Metro Court, Ava (Maura West) is listening to Avery explain what happened between Sonny and Josslyn and how much she hates Josslyn right now, which Ava seems to be OK with.
WILL JOSSLYN’S WORLD BLOW UP ON HER?
Speaking of Josslyn, she is on the pier still after her talk with Hudson and still crying over her confrontation with Sonny and Avery overhearing it, and what she told her sister. Lucas comes across her at the pier while out for his run.
Explaining how badly she feels for what she said about Sonny to Avery, Lucas says that eventually Avery will discover the truth about Sonny. He explains to Josslyn that even though Avery hates her now, she will come to realize that what she said about her father was the truth, and that Josslyn was not lying to her at all.
So, what do you think about Sonny ready to play dirty to take down Josslyn? How will Carly ensure her daughter does not wind up dead? Who do you think is in the right here? Is Josslyn’s vendetta against Sonny justified, at the cost of the relationships with her family? Let us know your thoughts in the comment section.

The latest ratings are out for the week of October 26-30, 2026 and the big takeaways include: that CBS daytime’s Beyond the Gates was separated by only 23,000 viewers behind third place (of the soaps) General Hospital! For the last several weeks, Beyond the Gates has been closing the gap on this year’s winner for Outstanding Daytime Drama Series, and continuing to best GH in the key demos.
According to the latest Nielsen ratings breakdown from Soap Opera Network, the final week of October brought Beyond the Gates 1.790 million on average tuning-in and the show set a season high in total viewers. Meanwhile, General Hospital hit a new season low! The long-running ABC soap had 1.813 million for the week, and once again the series did not go over the 2 million mark.
Meanwhile, in the key Women 18-49 demo, Beyond the Gates was firmly ahead of GH with a rating share of 0.21, while General Hospital had 0.17 rating share.Then, in the key Women 25-54 demo, Beyond the Gates was once again ahead of the ABC soap with a ratings share for that demo at 0.30 while GH came in with 0.26.

MORE BY THE NUMBERS
In addition and comparatively, Beyond the Gates +22,000 viewers week-to-week, and had the largest gains in viewership year-to-year in daytime TV with +267,000 from this in 2025.. However, General Hospital seems to be going in reverse. The show was down -56,000 viewers week-over-week and down -22,000 year-over-year .
BEYOND THE GATES
Let’s take a look at some of the storylines that had people tuning-in to Beyond the Gates during the ratings week:
Hayley (Marquita Goings) attempted a massive shocker regarding her pregnancy and tried to use it to extract money from Bill Hamilton (Timon Kyle Durrett). Although, Bill saw right through her game, he demanded a paternity test, and made it clear he has no intention of raising the child—planning instead to pay her off to take the baby and leave. Meanwhile, Hayley confided her plan to her cousin Randy (Maurice P. Kerry).
Jacob Hawthorne (Jibre Hordges) and Naomi Hamilton (Arielle Prepetit) clashed over Jacob’s ongoing investigation into The Impaler, causing significant strain in their marriage. At the same time, Smitty (Mike Manning) considered taking matters into his own hands—including potentially heading to Mexico for evidence—while Martin Richardson (Brandon Claybon) worried about what comes next.

GENERAL HOSPITAL
Over at General Hospital for the ratings period, the story served up included:
Carly (Laura Wright) and Valentin (James Patrick Stuart) teamed up to investigate what really happened to Jack Brennan (Chris McKenna). Later, Danny (Asher Antonyzyn) leads them to Jack’s dead body.
Jude (Wil Traval) dropped a bombshell claim to Alexis (Nancy Lee Grahn); that he is Phoebe’s father, while Brook Lynn (Amanda Setton) and Chase (Josh Swickard) signed their divorce papers.
Then, Danny caught Rocco (Finn Carr) and Scout (Kayden Brenna Tokarski) sharing a kiss, plus the shocking return of Heather Webber (Alley Mills) capped the week.
Now the questions become; without having much promotional synergy in the ABC day-part to draw more eyeballs it is not helping but hurting General Hospital. It seems Beyond the Gates is also a benefactor of a one-two-three punch of CBS soaps (Y&R, B&B and BTG) and promotion.
However, that still doesn’t take away the fact that Beyond the Gates is close to besting GH in all ratings category as they go head-to-head in some markets across the country.
So, are you excited to see Beyond the Gates climb in the ratings? Are you concerned for General Hospital? Do you think they can stave off Beyond the Gates in total viewers or will the upstart soap overtake them in the next ratings report? Share your thoughts in the comment section.
