General Hospital
(WATCH the PROMO) Is Dex the Next Man Down on ‘General Hospital’? Will He Survive?
General Hospital and ABC have released the promo for the action in Port Charles the week of December 9th through 13th, and Digitalis, the drug that took the life of Sam McCall and caused her to have a fatal heart attack, looks to play into what happens to potentially even more characters on the canvas.
From the looks of it, officer Dex Heller (Evan Hofer) must be on to some evidence, as someone comes from behind and either stabs him or injects him with a drug. Is it Digitalis? Is Dex going to be the next character to be killed-off of the ABC daytime drama series? Bets have been that Cyrus Renault (Jeff Kober) is behind Sam’s lethal injection, as he wants to also silence Lulu Spencer (Alexa Havins), which seems have been his main target. How does Dex play into this, or does he?
As the promo cuts to the shocked faces of Josslyn (Eden McCoy) Brook Lynn (Amanda Setton), Chase (Josh Swickard) and Olivia (Lisa LoCicero), we hear the voice of Jordan Ashford (Tanisha Harper) saying, “Office down, I repeat, officer down.”

In the video preview, it also looks like several people who live at the Q’s including: Willow (Katelyn MacMullen) and Drew (Cameron Mathison), plus visitors Carly (Laura Wright) and Nina (Cynthia Watros) are somehow watching what could be a videotape of Willow and Drew having sex, as Michael (Chad Duell) looks mortified. Is that what they are all aghast about?

Watch the promo for this week’s General Hospital below. Then let us know, what do you think the fate of Dex will be? Why does Michael look like he is about to be sick? Share your theories via the comment section below.
Yep.. Dex certainly has faded into the background since becoming a cop. I could see him being shown the exit door.
Looks like Dex is the next victim….who’s got the syringe? And reactions are about that tape Michael shows the family of Drew and Willow….
What was that look between Cyrus and Dex? Is he Cyrus’ long-lost son?
Cyrus realized he made a big mistake the day before. Dex had questioned him about breaking the restraining order Laura had against him, since he was seen on the 10th floor of the hospital on Halloween. Cyrus said he did not visit Lulu that day.
Well, then what was he doing on the 10th floor? And what else happened at GH on Halloween? That was the day Sam died, of course. And Dex might not be the sharpest knife in the drawer (or in his back, for that matter) but it wouldn’t take a rocket scientist to connect the dots there. Cyrus accidentally implicated himself in Sam’s murder, and he wanted to make sure Dex was taken care of, before he made that connection in his own mind and talked about it to anybody else.
Dex survived the stabbing, but what if he had a “heart attack” while recovering from surgery, just like Sam did? Or like AJ did the last time he came to Hell, for that matter?
The odds of another patient of Isiah and Lucas dying after a successful surgery are looking good. Since we’ve never met Dex’s family it’s not a big surprise.
Now, if eagle-eye Felicia gets in Cyrus’ way, that’s how he’ll likely be caught.
Dear God please don’t kill off Dex. Let him survive and arrest Cyrus for Sam’s death
Once Jason returned, the show didn’t really know what to do with Dex. Making him a lowly patrolman at the PCPD had him marked for death. Rory Cabrera, Cooper Barrett. Dex fits the mold.
If he does depart, Joss starts to catch up with her brother on dead paramours. Before Sasha and Willow, Michael’s bed partners (Abby, Sabrina, Nell) met an early demise. Will Dec join Oscar in the great beyond? At least this time, there won’t be an Dex’s meadow.
Please stop killing off the good guys. I don’t want to watch any more .Now the same old guy is back killing again.
omg, just leave Dex alone, he grew on me, I was team Cameron, still miss him and love him, but Dex grew on me and dammit he’s hot ok, I said he’s freaking hot. don’t kill him off GH, lets not have another serial killler storyline please spare us.
I like Dex, but they haven’t done much with him since making him a cop. He’s kind of just there. Once he passed the test, he had maybe one or two scenes with Chase and that was it. They need to give him more to do or write him out.
A Shocker all right… just watched Fridays show.. I truly thought we all were wrong.
But no.. Cyrus strikes again

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

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