Kelly is an amazing actress, but I agree with TPTB in severing ties with this character at the moment.

Will miss her the storyline that was going to be cousins fighting for Sonny is no existent now, Kelly was fabulous as Kate/Connie, I wish nothing but the best and maybe in the future they will bring her back!!

I wish Kelly well, but I am not going to miss her character of Konnie. Horrible character.

I am disappointed in the GH “powers that be” for DUMPING such a talented actress the way they are! Kelly handled the dual roles of Kate & Connie BRILLIANTLY! It’s so much more than just that, though. Kelly is one of the most gracious, fan friendly GH actresses I’ve ever had the pleasure of meeting/Tweeting with! She will be SORELY missed as Kate/Connie, but hopefully will maintain an ongoing relationship with the legion of fans she’s grown as we follow her to her to her next job/role!

Just as with Julie Marie Berman tptb wasted a GOLDEN opportunity to do some great story telling! Whether they “left on their own” (Berman) or summarily “let go” (Sullivan) Cartini sacrificed these wonderful talents ( and lets include the ones who left previously…Barash, Reeves Anderson) for the sake of bringing back their OLTL favorites! Unfortunately GH has become unrecognizable and has morrphed in to OLTL 2.0 no matter how much they try to deny it!

She was awesome. But is just Connie leaving or Kate too? lol If there was ever a 3rd attempt to revive Dark Shadows she would be great as the witch Angelique. Id like to see her return to GH but some smart show will snap her up…maybe Tainted Dreams?

Sooooo sad to see Kelly go. I love her, her acting and love the character of ConnieKate! You’ve gotten this wrong GH, please bring Kelly back!! As a long time fan and watching this show for 30+ years I do not understand what has been happening lately with some of these storylines.

No great loss. Split personalities are not GH’s specialty, leave the psychological storytelling to OLTL.

Huge mistake for the show to get rid of this multi-talented actress instead of some of the much less talented newbies that we could all do without. I wish Kelly luck in her new endeavors and hope whoever made this decision lives to regret it.

Of course I wish the powers that be would reverse their decision, this is a bad mistake, makes you wonder who will be next..

Yes, she’s a talented actress they should be keeping.

I love the relationship between Connie and Olivia and I hated the idea of pitting those two against each other for Sonny. I hope however they write her off it leaves room to bring back the character in the future. I also hope they don’t split her personalities again– let her leave well and whole for parts unknown. And finally KS is very talented so I hope she finds a new gig soon.

Tracy Thomas, I agree with you wholeheartedly! TPTB wasted great talent–and GH is NOT GH anymore.

Yes I’ll miss her, LOVE Connie/Kate whatever she played! KS is a fabulous actress, big loss to GH, but I’m sure she’ll find something else! Good luck Kelly!!

I think she’ an actress who can be depended upon to hit it out of the ballpark. It’s a sad loss for GH and us fans. I hope she can be brought back on at some point down the road. Best wishes to her.

To be honest, GH never knew what to do with the character of Connie/Kate. Whether it be with this actress or the original actress, she was written all over the wall. I wish the actress well, but I wish the character could have been on recurring basis.

Wishing all the best to Kelly! She’s too good for the circus GH has become anyway. I wouldn’t want to wait around for a couple of scenes in that menagerie, if I had her talent.

Hope she finds something equal to her talent soon.

Kelly is terrific and having a S/L with women friends with Connie & Liv was a nice back to basics move. Unf the geniuses who destroyed the genre keep thinking the fans want far-fetched nonsense instead of insightful relationships developed over time. Kelly never dialed in a performance despite lousy material.

Yes very sad.I liked the Connie/Katie storyline and really like Kelly Sullivan…Wish they would bring her back.

I’m just about ready to watch my soaps online (All My Children and One Life to Live). General Hospital should be keeping Kelly as her story line with Sonny has a lot more to come. As usual the powers that be start getting rid of characters until their show hits bottom. It has been stupid to cast OLTL characters as one person then cast that same person as someone else. This really messed up the whole show. I’m done!!

GH has a casting budget..
Kate/Connie was cut out and Ava brought in..
an even exchange in my opinion,.

It was either pay for Kate/Connie or Ava …

It is about budget for cast payroll, which character is best for the show,

I love Kelly and Connie. They should have kept Kelly as Connie and let go the actress who plays Olivia, Boring.

Kelly is a great actress . Its a shame to have her leave the show. They could have cancled the OLTL crew. there acting is sub par. She will be missed just another nail in the coffin of GH .

Maybe Kelly will go play Phyllis on Y&R? I think she would rock that role!

Kelly is a very talented actress. She should have been kept on GH. SO many characters just take up space – so many tired story lines. I hope that they can make magic with what they have and create a new interest inthe show. I think she is a big loss

BIG Mistake!!!!

Kelly was certainly much more enjoyable than the previous actress who played Kate. And I enjoyed when she went full Connie and was into the leopard print outfits and hitting on every man in Port Charles. But once the tow characters/personalities got reintegrated and she was much more Kate Howard but with Connie’s name, I lost interest. One of the great things on “GH” is when they have “ethnic” characters who go beyond stereotypes. Lois was probably the first, and I really enjoy Olivia when she’s in full Bensonhurst Italian Mother mode. When Kelly was Connie she was like that… Read more »

I wish Kelly well in whatever she does next!!! I was ready for the Connie/Kate story line to be over and if that means the new Connie one is too then we have to accept that. If she was sidelined to let Maura in for a longer stay… I have to approve! Maura is fabulous and her story is front and center at the moment and Connie’s is not. I am sure someday Connie may appear again…

I want her to stay!!!

One of the best performance that I had seen in a while. Sorry to see you go.

Ive been watching GH since before Luke and Laura came onto the canvas. and I need to do some venting here. Before I do, I just want to say that I will miss Kelly a lot , I think she did the most with what she given and wish her a great career going forward-she is very talented and has a lot to offer. I am over the fact that Sonny cant make up his mind who the love of his life is/was. First it was Brenda,then we found out about Connie from around the way, then enter the long… Read more »

I really liked her I’ll miss her.

ah too bad, really like her and what a fabulous actress with a fabulous character, WHY GH WHY

Why did they let her go because of budget but then hire someone else? RIDICULOUS! …BRING HER BACK!!

I have to be honest, I didn’t really care for either one of the Connies/Kates for a long time. It wasn’t until recently when Connie started to remember the cause of her split personality and talked about what Joe Scully did to her. I have to say, I don’t cry over this show except for when a kid dies, but the way Kelly Sullivan played that part literally had me in tears. Since then, I’ve had the up most respect for her as an actress. I was hoping there would be a little drama between Kate, Sonny, and Olivia to… Read more »

I LOVE her. ABSOLUTELY LOVE her! She is so amazing and just super awesome! I hope she becomes a HUGE star! I am going to miss her hilarious moments as crazy Connie vs. conservative Kate on GH but I wish her the best in her future. **)

I’m a HUGE GH fan and have been watching since Luke/Laura days. For the first time, i felt compelled to write about the departure of Kelly, aka Kate/Connie. When I read her contract was not re-negotiated and she was being let go, my first thought was WHY would the Powers To Be at GH let such a talented actress go? We all saw the scenes Kelly provided us fans as she Mastered the Kate/Connie Personalities. She was BRILLIANT and brought chills to my body when performing her scenes. Than it hit me why GH mistakenly let her go….it will now… Read more »

I would like to see Kelly sullvan played role of Jessica Buchanan one life to live

I miss Kelly and I stopped watching General Hospital because she left, I think it was a bad mistake letting her go! She was the best thing about General Hospital and I used to enjoy watching it because of her but not anymore!
