Grease is the word! Everyone has been talking about the 3-hour outstanding performance of the cast and crew that brought Grease: Live to life on FOX on Sunday night.

The ambitious production drew an average of 12.2 million viewers, led by the performances of Aaron Tveit (Danny), Vanessa Hudgens (Rizzo), and Julianne Hough (Sandy).

One of the more notable songs from the motion picture version, “You’re The One That I Want”  which includes the words “electrifying” which was included in the telecast was spoofed on Monday by the Corinthos men of General Hospital!

In a posting on Maurice Benard’s Instagram, Chad Duell (Michael), Bryan Craig (Morgan) and Maurice (Sonny) belt out a refrain, well sort of, from Grease: Live!

Watch the guys after the jump! Then, let us know if you got a kick out of it … and which actor 🙂 would you cast in production of Grease ....  and if you watched Fox’s Grease: Live last night!

to fun!

Is this a toast?
I am so bored by Curly, Larry and Mo right now.

Wooooooooo Woooooo Wooooooo!

I second that

Luvs Sonny/Maurice! He is a fun guy.. 🙂

ohhh and, without John Travolta, Grease just was not right, it was good but not right lol

Love the sense of humor. I would have loved to have seen dome of Maurice’s moves…..he’s got them!!

Some, not done.

CeeCee’s got chills [For Sonny] their multiplying, and shes losing control, by the power Maurice is supplying, its ELECTRIFYING! ELECTRIFYING! [Your husband says] “You better shape up, cause you have a man, and my heart is set on you, You better shape up, you better understand, to my heart you must be true!” Oooooo Ooooo O!

Thanks for that, my Timmmbo!!!! Best compliment you could have given me. You are a groundbreaker, my love. Lol.
No worries, though. Jude knows he’s the one and only for me. We fit…a little kidding around doesn’t hurt!! HaHa. Can you imagine my falling for Sonny? Right! When elephants next in trees!!
I loooove this. Looove you. Soon.

Nest, not next.

Hey, CeeCee…’when elephants nest in trees’…LMAO!!!!! Guess what…I’m still laughing!!!!! BTW, CeeCee, it’s too bad that you’re not a female comic (or whatever). I mean…some of your posts are so comical…and you make me LOL!!!!! Thank You.

Later.

Thank you, Jay. My jokes are king of corny. And, much of my speechifying comes from old Scotland; thanks to my Nanna and Granda. You should meet my husband, he really is funny. I cannot compare to Harry. Timmm or to jimh. Later, my friend.

Wow! All three of them should quit GH and head straight to Broadway! Is there no end to their talent?!

AWww, Lil’ Angel…I know, I know. But, it’s a spoof….a charicature of themselves. These three are known to put on a silly, stupid, immature act….all in fun. While I want to shoot Sonny with my eyes through the screen; as I said, I do get Maurice’s and ‘gang’ twisted humor. My brain sort of works the same way.
But, I do appreciate your sarcasm. Later.

None of them match Aaron Tveit’s performance. Aaron sang the songs better than Travolta did!

No waaayyy…John and Olivia ARE the number one Danny and Sandy…tv live stage version was ok and i liked the diversity in the casting and i did enjoy-best part was the dancing but the movie version is far more superior!-Why its greased lightning…lol

Say it again, Jimmy!!

Oh, my! That’s like saying a two-bit artist paints LA GIOCONDA ( Mona Lisa) better than da Vinci. John Travolta and Olivia Newton John are a classic couple with a classic song.

It was cool. I liked it. They seem to be close and having fun. Thats what life is all about. We throw anger at these guys characters all the time but this reminds us they are human and all three seem to be good guys.

Exactly, Timmm. They are human. As for myself, anyone with a sense of humor is welcome at my table. Anyone who can take a moment in time and monkey around to remind us to laugh at ourselves and appreciate the world’s laughter is food for the soul. A few years ago, my husband dressed up as Rizzo for Halloween. We laugh, we cry, we argue, we love. Later, babes.

I would cast Morgan! (Brian)

Michael : ” the “power” most supplying”

Bryan : ” most supplying”

Maurice : ” it’s electrifying”

is this a spoof … in any way supporting… the Corinthos’ MEN hum drum

one of two things

damage control…. ( ie: Maurice Benard and Laura Wright last interview ! blech! )
don’t bite the hand that feeds you ?

this is not the best part of GH… in any way shape or form

the scene in the coffee warehouse… by the docks / waterfront

Sonny / Carly / Morgan

i’m dumbfounded…

there they go again… Carly and Sonny

Carly is in Morgans face…. about his lack of professionalism… he’s their son… he has no respect… according to Sonny for Carly…

once again… Morgan back at his parents…. I’m taking my meds !

Carly… argh! catches Sonny “standing”

Sonny tells his main henchman…. he lied once again to Carly

argh! i’m so done with the Corinthos’ Clan

before i’m told off… I love soapboxing pressing knocking bringing to the attention just how dull Port Charles is… with Sonny and Carly

seriously ? I actually feel for their kids… either that… or they have an inside joke… and think they run the whole shebang

dull

GENERAL HOSPITAL Preview: Serena Sets Her Sights on Michael; Jason’s Emotional Exit from the Mob

Published

on

By

This week on all-new episodes of General Hospital, new and old motivations come into play with dangerous consequences. According to the just released GH video spoilers video for the week of August 3-7, a bailiff calls out, “All rise!”

Now it’s Isaiah (Sawandi Wilson) vs. Curtis (Donnell Turner), as the surgeon is suing the owner of the Savoy for assault that ruined is ability to operate. At the end of the day, which of these men has enough evidence against the other? Portia (Brook Kerr) is by Isaiah’s side, while Jordan (Tanisha Harper) is with Curtis.

Next, Lucy (Lynn Herring) has a plan to get the controlling shares of Deception away from Michael (Rory Gibson). She wants her daughter, Serena (Kelly Kruger) to seduce Michael. She tells her, “Pick out your most seductive suit.” Soon, we see Serena in her bathing suit at the Metro Court face to face with Michael.

Later, there is a small baggie containing three blue pills. Nina (Cynthia Watros) ask Willow (Katelyn MacMullen), “What did you do?” We also see Michael asking the same thing of Jacinda (Paige Herschell). Leading into this week, viewers know that Willow doesn’t want the former escort anywhere near her children, Amelia and Wiley. Is this how she stops her, or is Jacinda up to old tricks and wants to frame Willow? Remember when Jacindsa drugged Drew (Cameron Mathison)? Stay tuned.

Finally, in the pick-up from last Friday’s cliffhanger, an emotional Jason (Steve Burton) continues to tell Sonny (Maurice Benard) that he cannot work for him anymore. Sonny ask, “So that’s it? You’re Out?” We fade to black.

Take a look at the official GH spoilers for the week below.

Vincent Pastore of ‘Sopranos’ Fame and ‘General Hospital’s’ Maximus Giambetti Dies at 80

Published

By

Vincent Pastore, best known for his memorable role as Salvatore “Big Pussy” Bonpensiero on HBO’s The Sopranos has passed away.

The veteran actor was found dead on August 1st in his home in the Bronx, New York. Pastore was 80-years-old. The cause of death is yet to be determined.

As well as his role on The Sopranos, many soap fans will recall he played multiple smaller roles on the beloved One Life to Live from 1995 and 2004. However, in 2008, he landed the short-term role as Maximus Giambetti on General Hospital.

PASTORE WANTED TO BE ON GENERAL HOSPITAL

Maximus was the mobster father of Sonny Corinthos’ (Maurice Benard) bodyguards: Max (Derk Cheetwood) and Milo (Drew Cheetwood)

According to Soap Opera Digest, Pastore told Soaps In Depth back in 2009, after appearing in a SOAPnet promotional campaign as a celebrity fan of General Hospital: “‘I’d love to be on the show. So they called up GH’s casting director (Mark Teschner) and Bobby (Robert Guza Jr. ex-head writer, GH) and they wrote me in!”

Pastore was a huge General Hospital fan from way back, who at one point told producers that he would watch the ABC soap opera while working in bars and nightclubs in the 70s and 80s.

Throughout his decades long career, Pastore appeared in films including: Goodfellas, Carlito’s Way and Men of Respect, The Jerky Boys: The Movie and the 1996 HBO TV movie Gotti.

In TV, besides The Sopranos, Pastore’s credits included: Law & Order, The Practice, Son of the Beach, Queens Supreme, Hawaii Five-0, Wu-Tang: An American Saga, plus the miniseries The Last Don II. Most recently, Vincent was a series regular on Gravesend and guest starred on Yellowjackets.

Pastore is survived by his daughter, Renee, son-in-law and granddaughter.
