Another daytime favorite is coming to General Hospital.  This time its Kimberly J. Brown (Ex-Marah) of Guiding Light fame.  She last appeared on the soaps during her from 1993-1998 and then a brief return in 2006

According to Soap Opera Digest, she will make her GH debut next week in a mystery role.

Kimberly worked with two GH powerhouse actresses during her tine on Guiding Light. 

She noted to SOD about her time in Springfield: Cynthia Watros (Nina, GH, Ex-Annie Dutton, GL) was my stepmom for a bit, and Laura Wright (Carly, Ex- Cassie, GL) played my aunt.”

Brown has appeared in numerous primetime television shows and motion pictures over the last few decades.

Now the question becomes, who will Kimberly play on GH? Share your theories via the comment section below.

Well…. she would have to bleach her hair to do it, but…. she’s about the right age for a LuLu recast. And it is about time she woke up from that coma, ain’t it?

I’d really rather see Julie Marie Berman come back, of course. But that’s the guess I’m going with. They sure as Hell don’t need any more new characters on an already crowded canvas.

I’m thinking she will be Maxie’s nanny.

Harry
Right you are, and looks like that A.H Peter killed the real nurse. The plot thickens!

Hmmmm. Who could she be? Not that we need any recasts right now, but she does look like she could play a number of current characters on screen.

As for those currently not on screen…
It’s too soon for Lulu to return, and I’d doubt they hire a brunette for the role.

I’ll rule out Serena Baldwin or Lila Rae Alcazar because we can’t have good things and KJB might be a bit old for both roles. Conversely, she’s too young for Sarah Webber.

Since we already know that John Reilly’s daughter will play Annie Donely, she’s probably not tied to that story which will run next Friday.

Sadly, she’ll likely be Cyrus’ never mentioned daughter. As good as Jeff Kober’s performance is, Cyrus is still not a character we need long term.

This is the second time in two weeks we’ve been “warned” about the imminent arrival of former soap vets. Why do we need them? Bring back characters we know and utilize the underseen.

Just what the show needs: more new cast members. NOT.

Well, being the age of 36, kind of puts her in an odd age group somewhere between Willow, Sasha, Brook Lyn, Sam and then Carly, Nina, Olivia, Ava, so this will be very interesting.

Um … Sam is in the Carly Ava Nina age group. She could be a mother to any of those younger girls.

Johnny
OMG, didn’t realize she is 45 , but to make up for being so old, she only weighs 95 lbs.

Hi Violet..
yah she’s 36 but–
Height: 5′ 5½”
GH has a lot of miniature women.
I’m 5-7– with shoes higher..
It’s funny– I have a 5-3 friend and
I look down at her, she looks up..
Sam is miniature looks like
an 11yr old- girl, same for Liz and Maxie
and most all others. All wear 6-inch heels, every second possible in the shower too LOL
I’ve seen them wearing their tower heels on in/on bed, they are never without their 6-inch heels on, never..weird.
Why can’t they be natural wearing Nikies etc?

She’s fantastic! It was great seeing her in the Locher Room.

I think she’s going to be Maxie’s new nurse and be mixed up with Peter!

Kayla
Kudos to you and Harry that guessed right. I never thought of that.

Violet, Violet, I HATE this story! Peter ALWAYS has the upper hand, over and over. Enough already! In what universe would Jason let this worm slither along like this? And his Snidely Whiplash performances are becoming laughable. S.O.S!

I’m not sure it’s the actor’s fault – I think he and everyone else in this dreadful storyline have done their best with some awful material, but I have definitely had enough of Peter! The longer this goes, the more good actors/characters are being dragged into it.
I feel so bad for Finola Hughes and James Patrick Stuart especially. They are great actors having to try to sell this day after day.
It is the storyline that ate the GH canvas at this point!

I completely disagree—he’s a horrible actor. He whispers his lines trying to sound evil and it only makes him seem laughable. It’s past time for him as his character to go.

Being somewhat an expert on all things “evil”, I would have to say that Whiny Heiny will be the butt of jokes for all eternity when he finally arrives in Hell. I can’t imagine Adolf Hitler or Joe Stalin inviting him over to any of their parties.

Also, it’s not a good idea to invite Joe & Adolf to the same party either, but that’s entirely another story….

THIS WEEK on GENERAL HOSPITAL: Dex and Josslyn’s Relationship at a Crossroad, Jason Contacts Diane For Help

Previews for the week of March 18-22nd on General Hospital, plus the latest promo for the daytime drama series, share that Jason’s (Steve Burton) return has already affected so many lives, especially given the fact that several key people aka Michael (Chad Duell), Willow (Katelyn MacMullen) and Danny (Asher Antonyzn) know his location at this moment.

Eventually, Jason (Steve Burton) will get in touch with Diane (Carolyn Hennesy), from what one can only assume is legal help. However, John (Adam J. Harrington) seems hot on Jason’s trail, but the question remains, if Jason was working for John as seemingly revealed in a flashback to keep out of prison, are the two working together … or are they mortal enemies?

Meanwhile, it looks like its curtain for now in the relationship between Dex (Evan Hofer) and Josslyn (Eden McCoy). After Nina (Cynthia Watros) dropped a bombshell about Cyrus (Jeff Kober), Joss gets an earful of information from Dex, when he admits that he was in Cyrus’s hospital room to kill him on orders from Sonny (Maurice Benard).

According to Soap Opera Digest, Eden McCoy shared, ” I think what’s different about this situation, and what pushes her over the edge, is that it wasn’t, like, a self-defense situation. It wasn’t at a shoot-out. He wasn’t protecting Sonny. Cyrus wasn’t doing anything! And I think that really scares her, to see him in the light of voluntarily killing someone in their sleep. That is very different from, like, shooting someone that’s shooting at Sonny. She is just in shock, like she can’t actually believe it.” As told by McCoy, “At that point, Josslyn says.’I can’t do this anymore,’ and makes her exit.”

Take a look below at the rest of the official teasers for the week.

REPORT: General Hospital Alum, Robyn Bernard, Homeless & Battling Addiction, Before Her Passing at 64

Robyn Bernard passed away earlier this week on March 12th, when her body was found in an empty field, which is allegedly behind a 7/11, and some trailer homes, in San Jacinto, California. The actress and singer, and former General Hospital alum, played Terry Brock from 1984-1990 and was 64-years-old at the time of her death.

New reporting on the life that she led over the past year, and longtime mental health issues and struggles with addiction, paint a picture that may have led to her death. Although it should be noted, the toxicology report is currently not completed or released. However, the sheriff department stated that no foul play is suspected.

Now, according to the Daily Mail, friends of Bernard spoke on how she had become part of their homeless community, and that she she struggled with alcohol addiction, and had been diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia through the latter part of her life.

In their accounts, things went south for Robyn when in 2014 she moved to the community in San Jacinto, which is 84 miles from Los Angeles. At that time, she moved into a trailer park for senior citizens and was beloved for her singing by her neighbors.

The report also notes that in 2015, tragically, Bernard’s trailer park home was burned to the ground taking 7 of her 8 beloved cats and all of her possessions. After that, Robin stayed with many people of the community, but the previous management chased her off of the premises. She then broke up with her boyfriend and eventually stopped communicating with her parents.

Bernard’s final home was in a community called Parkview Estates, facilitated by Riverside County’s Adult Protective Services Department.  According to police records obtained by Daily Mail, through 2017-2019, Bernard faced numerous DUI drugs and alcohol arrests during that period.

Joni Woods, who lives opposite the space where Bernard’s trailer once was said: ‘I used to see her (Robyn) around town all the time pushing her shopping carts. She always had four or five of them, and I always felt so bad for her.” Robyn’s former boyfriend, Dan Berlin, expressed that the last time he had seen the GH alum was two years ago, “She was out there, talking to herself in a nonsense way. She was a schizophrenic.’

The friends of Bernard shared: “She used to say that Hollywood screwed her over,” adding, “They did her dirty and that’s why she ended up living in San Jacinto of all places.”

Share your thoughts on this tragic story of the last part of Robyn’s life, which again, stresses the importance of trying to find the appropriate help for those dealing with mental illness, being homeless, and addiction.

While ‘General Hospital’s’ Dante Lays in a Coma; Dominic Zamprogna Has Some Great New Portrait Headshots

On General Hospital, Dante Falconeri (Dominic Zamprogna) has thus far survived two bullets to the chest, and is laying in a coma. Sam (Kelly Monaco), his lady love, is by his side and beside herself after learning her ex Jason Morgan (Steve Burton) is alive and is of the belief that Jason have been the shooter who tried to take out Dante.

Sonny (Maurice Benard) has been wracked with guilt after he wasn’t so kind to his son, before the PCPD cop got shot. Meanwhile, Jason is hiding out at the Quartermaine boat house trying to recover from the gun shot wound he received.

While Dante’s life is still hanging in the balance, it appears that his portrayer, Dominic Zamprogna, took a diverse range of headshot and portrait photos under the eyes of talented photographer Jackson Davis. The photos were posted on Davis’ Instagram account.

A few former GH castmates commented on the photos including Marc Anthony Samuel (ex-Felix) who expressed: “Dante, Dante, Dante…,” and Mark Lawson (ex-Dustin) posted, “Dom!!!! Handle yo’ biz.”

Zamprogna joined General Hospital back in 2009 and has been nominated four times for a Daytime Emmy Award throughout his time thus far on the ABC daytime drama series.

So, what do you think will happen to Dante? Will he wake up and be just fine, or will he have another medical condition? What do you think of Dominic’s new headshots? Comment below.
