On yesterday’s, October 21st episode of General Hospital, Violet shared some very heartbreaking goodbyes with her loved ones as she leaves Port Charles to join her father, Hamilton Finn (Michael Easton) in Seattle. Those moments signified the end of Jophielle Love’s run on the soap opera, for now.

In tears, Violet told Brook Lynn (Amanda Setton) she would miss her the most, told Brook Lynn and Chase (Josh Swickard), she knows they are going to have a baby girl someday, because they are good at raising girls, and that she and Tracy would have a virtual tea party, once Tracy (Jane Elliot) gave her Lila’s good china as a parting gift.

Jophielle spoke to Soap Opera Digest on her exit, where she shared that her final day on set was, “very sad,” but added, “It was fun to end it with a tea party, which is Violet’s favorite thing to do. But the long good-byes … so hard. I think I was already crying before they called, ‘Action!’ ”

Playing Violet’s inner-conflict of being excited to being reunited with her dad, but in the process saying goodbye to the other members of the family, she has grown to love, gave Jophielle all the feels and emotions. “It’s weird to feel so happy and so sad at the same time,” she explains. “Violet was happy to be on her way to see her dad, and also incredibly sad to leave her new home and family at the Quartermaines. And I felt just like that on this last day. It was almost like crying while smiling…  and then I realized I was the one going through that door!”

When GH scripted Violet’s exit, the door was left open for her to make a return down the line, which could be sooner than later, we just don’t know. Taking the decision as best she could, the young Daytime Emmy-nominee, said just how she would like to come back, if given the opportunity.

“I don’t know how or when, but I hope it is not in too long from now, said Jophielle. “It would be great if I could come back with my dad but as we saw, there is no way of knowing what the story will be. I could be back next year or in 10 years!”

So, do you want to see Jophielle and Michael Easton return to General Hospital together as a father-daughter unit? Are you sad to see Jophielle leave the show? Comment below.

I really have enjoyed Dr. Finn and Violet’s relationship on the show. I’m looking forward to their sooner than later RETURN.

Great little actress There are more thins in the future for this Brilliant Beautiful Young Lady

I would love to see her come back with her dad or without. I am tired of them recasting great characters and killing off ones. i don’t like the writers

And WHEN the character comes back, please have her mother Hayden come back too.

Great little Actress

Yesssss!

She didn’t say goodbye to her aunt Elizabeth who was more involved in taking care of her for years than Chase. Ridiculous.

Yes bring both back please♥️

I just don’t like the writers anymore. I have stopped watching because they just irritate me with all the firing of good actors! When GH gets new writers I will come back but until then I am boycotting watching my favorite and only Soap!!!

When did g/h turn to diversity look people slavery is in the past! Holocaust is in the past ! For all you that can’t see we are human we bleed red no matter what color we are ! Sure we have a lot of dumbasses be stop feeling sorry for yourself cause of color or religion ! Bring back good soaps or I’ll watch some stupid game show ! I’d watch g/h in the 50s with my dad now I see it deteriorate shame on the writers

Michael Ryan, you best check yourself before you start saying we censor American History textbooks. I have no idea why you brought up Slavery or the Holocaust because no else did. Your viewpoint is chilling and doesn’t belong in a soap comment section.

I agree. Stop with the racism! I am so tired of it.

I also would like to see more black actors being employed!!!!

Yes I would like to see them both return soon. Miss Violet already

Absolutely

Yes I want them both back. They were both great actors. I will miss them.

I would love to see Dr. Finn return to the show and re-connect with Elizabeth.

There are a lot of other actors or actresses on General Hospital that they should be getting rid of. They always seem to let the good ones go. I really hope they rethink some of their decisions. And it’s really very sad that they killing off Sam.

Portia should go, Holly too

The writers need to stop writing out all the good characters!! You are going to keep this up and run out of fans. I’ve been watching this show since it came on in the 60’s and l really hate to say but the quality of story lines is really declining. Too many comercials and too much re-telling of the lines instead of a good script. I and most of the fans already know the story we dont need to hear a 5 min replay before we get today’s story. Thanks for listening. Signed A loyal fan.

Bring them both back.They both had good storylines and are phenomenal actors

They will both be missed. They are both very good actors, but she is very special and will be a great ⭐

I love the little girl & her beautiful singing voice. Finn is a great character.

I am so sorry to see her leave as well as Michal but at least the writers didn’t kill off Finn as he left the rehab hospital to return home. I had early on read they were going to have him die in a car wreck after checking out of rehab so I am grateful that didn’t happen. Hopefully they can both return.

I so enjoyed watching this young actor grow up on GH. She has come a long way. I hope she returns to Port Charles sooner rather than later. So enjoyable to watch.

I am very sad they took Finn and Violet off. I hope they do come back.

The actor portraying Finn quit GH. He said he needed a break. Remember he was on All My Children.

Between the firing of Kelly Monoco, loss of Violet, loss of Marshall I don’t even like the show anymore. Not sure what is driving all this. Kelly gave up part of her salary and was fired anyway. Between bad business decisions and poor writing this show is being run into the ground

Violet is such a wonderful asset to GH. Having her leave would be a tragedy.
i have watched GH since its inception. Violets leaving would be awful

I loved Finn and Violet and it would be awesome to see them return

I cried when she left!! Great lil actress!!

I love the father , daughter. Fillet and fan just fit. Please bring them both back. I loved them and broke my heart when they left.

Mark Teschner has a great track record in finding young talent. Jophielle was one of the best finds since Kimberly McCullough. Miss Love held her own with veteran performers.

Here’s wishing her a lifetime of happiness and success.

Finn and Violet come back

  • Yes I would like to see them return to GH.

Yes, bring her back along with her dad and her mom. Sooner than later.

She’s been such a delight to watch grow up. The first sight oof her in the hospital bed – she looked like an angel. I hope she comes back. I miss her already.

This little actress is one the best actress for her age, not to mention the absolute cutest. I hate to see her go, but I think they should definitely have her visit Port Charles during the summer or when Finn does doctors without borders or something like that. Not to kill him off, but to have him missing or something. GH still needs to finish the storyline with Violet’s mother. Leaving open for so long is irresponsible.

Yes I would love to see them return please and thank you

Don’t miss Finn at all. Will miss her!!!! Storylines need to move along!!!!

I hope Violet and Finn come back together. I really enjoyed watching their relationship blossom.❤️

See, this is another reason I’ve stopped watching for almost a year. Either same storylines with different characters, or changes with characters. Not as good as it use to be. Disappointed since I’ve watched from the very 1st show.

Would love to see Violet return with her Dad…absolutely!

Yes let them both come back

I’m upset about violet leaving I think she does a great job and she is so freakin cute!!!!

I look falward to ther return ,sooner then later.

Yes. Bring her back. They are getting rid of good people and bringing killers back on the show. In this world we are living in today keep good things on GH. Not killing and drugs etc. it’s all to real and stressful. It’s too much. Not enough good.

Josephine is phenomenal
Never should have let her go
She will be picked up by another show so fast

Michael Easton is also absolutely outstanding

It is getting ridiculous how the writers are writing off so many wonderful wonderful and important actors and actresses from this program. You are ripping out our hearts with Finn and Violet. I’ve loved Finn for a long time but bringing on Violet to be his daughter brought his character to a new level of greatness and she has added so much love to the show making such a positive difference in so many relationships. Why do we get so involved these characters for you writers to so swiftly dispose of them? Also removing Sam (Kelly Monaco) after all of these years is cruel to her an us. It’s getting hard to get to involved now, knowing that they might be gone as quickly as they came. I do hope to see them back soon.

I liked Finn with Anna, his relationship with Tracy, Alexis, Chase, and especially with Violet.   I did not like the pairing with Elizabeth as there was zero chemistry between them.  (It was agonizing to watch them together.)   So yes, I’d like Finn & Violet to come back; however, he needs to have chemistry with his love interest & that won’t happen with Elizabeth.

Yes, I want to see Jophielle Love return to General Hospital and Michael Finn. Today;s show was a tearjerker, and a heartbreaker.

Bring violet back and finn

I could live without Finn, but Violet was a delight and a wonderful little actor! She was one of my fave characters and I’d love for her to come back— with or without Finn!

Both finn and violet need to return. It is not displaying without them and their relationship

Bring them back

GENERAL HOSPITAL: Jason and Britt Reach an Impasse; Is This the End of Their Relationship?

Published

By

Jason and Britt

On the Friday, September 11 episode of General Hospital, Jason (Steve Burton) and Britt’s (Kelly Thiebaud) relationship becomes strained to potentially the point of no return.

Things take a turn when an unglued Britt having been traumatized by almost being killed by Anna Devane (Finola Hughes) asks Jason to back her up with the PCPD when she reports Anna for attempted murder.

However, Jason told Britt, he can’t. Jason shares that he does not believe Anna would have gone through with shooting her. Therefore, Britt was not in any real imminent danger. Britt is flabbergasted and hurt that Jason is refusing to tell the police what he actually witnessed for himself on Mount Emerson.

BRITT WANTS BACK UP FROM JASON

Jason counters that he can’t believe that Britt would want Anna punished. or sent to prison, or a mental facility after the trauma she endured while being locked up and mentally tortured while at Wyndemere.

He asks Britt, “How could you even say that you want her locked up or prosecuted for what she did when you knew she was being held prisoner and you did nothing to save her?” Britt is stunned by Jason’s response.

Coming up, official General Hospital spoilers share that on the upcoming Monday, September 14 episode, Jason confides in Carly (Laura Wright), while Britt is stung. In the video preview that aired at the end of the Friday, September 11 episode for this coming Monday, Britt says to Jason, “You don’t believe me. Do you?”

General Hospital head scribes, Chris Van Etten and Elizabeth Korte previously teased in their fall preview of the soap, “Britt and Jason have come a long way and fought a lot of enemies to be together. But the most stubborn obstacle to their happiness isn’t without, it’s within. Decisions Britt made to stay alive while under Cullum’s thumb will come back to haunt her and may prove too difficult for this unlikely couple to survive.”

So, what do you think will happen? Will Jason and Britt break-up over Britt’s lies and Jason’s unwillingness to report Anna’s crime against her? Do you want Jason and Britt to go their separate ways? If they do, will Britt become romantically involved with Dr. Tristan Roberts (Dean Geyer) ? If so, who do you pair Jason with? Anyone? Weigh-in via the comment section.

Kearran Giovanni

If Anna Devane’s (Finola Hughes) new therapist on General Hospital looks familiar to you, it’s because actress Kearran Giovanni, who plays Dr. Nichols, previously played a doctor on One Life to Live!.

Viewers tuning-in to the Thursday, September 10 episode of GH got their first look at Dr. Nichols who has been brought in to help Anna recover from her PTSD and trauma following the reveal that she has been suffering from a break in reality since before being put in mental health facility in France, after being gaslighted by Cullum and company earlier in the year.

One Life to Live fans will recall that Kearran Giovanni played Dr. Vivian Wright in 2009, and it was then she first worked with current General Hospital EP, Frank Valentini, who at the time was at the helm in Llanview.

WHERE ELSE HAVE YOU SEEN KEARRAN GIOVANNI?

Giovanni appeared on OLTL in the recurring role through 2012 and in the final ABC episode of the beloved series was the the ob/gyn who delivered Destiny Evans (Shenell Edmonds) and Matthew Buchanan’s (Eddie Alderson) baby into the world, whom they named Drew Buchanan II after Bo Buchanan’s (Robert S, Woods) late son. In addition, Vivian has been dating Shaun Evans (Sean Ringgold).

GENERAL HOSPITAL: Anna Breaks Down in Front of Jason and Britt After Shots Are Fired

Published

Finola Hughes

The Wednesday, September 9 episode of General Hospital featured top-notch performances by Finola Hughes and Steve Burton, as Anna holds Jason and Britt (Kelly Thiebaud) at gunpoint on Mount Emerson.

Anna is not in her right mind as hallucinations of Peter (Wes Ramsey) overtake her, egging her on to shoot and kill Britt. Jason begs Anna to put down the gun, but it’s clear Anna is speaking to someone who is not there, but in a direction that is just past Britt.

Suddenly, Anna screams at Britt, “You’re just like your father!” Anna also tells Britt that she knew Britt was aware that she was locked up on Spoon Island and did nothing to save her. Britt turns to Jason and tells him she had no idea Anna was on the Island, “until Cullum showed up in Port Charles.” That declaration gave Jason pause.

“PETER” TAKES A BULLET

Next, Anna is overcome with angst, filled with tears and screams out, “I won’t let you beat me!” She fires the gun where the imaginary Peter was standing, as Britt screams and Jason dove to cover her. Now completely shaken, Jason took the weapon from Anna and ordered Britt to leave the scene as Anna collapsed in Jason’s arms.

Jason was so concerned for Anna. She reveals she’s been seeing visions of Peter August since France. Jason shared his theory with Anna that she was manifesting her worst fears about Faison. However he knows deep down Anna would never have shot Britt. Jason promises to come back and clean up the area, but would take Anna home first.

ANNA ADMITS TO EMMA SHE TRIED TO KILL BRITT

At Anna’s, Jason brings her in the front door as Emma is there. Jason tells Emma (Braedyn Bruner) he would like to return and spend the night. A confused and worried Emma get the full story from her grandmother.

Anna explains she tried to kill Britt and she is not as well as she was pretending to be in France. Cut to: Jason cleaning up the site of Anna’s plot against Britt on Mount Emerson. He moves over and finds bullet casings on the ground and examines one of them.

The story climax also signaled the end of the run for Wes Ramsey, who has been showing up on episodes over the last several months as Anna’s dark side conscience. Now that Anna was able to break the psychological hold visions of “Peter” had on her, it ends this latest return of Ramsey’s.

So, what did you think about the scenes between Anna and Jason? Do you think Jason and Britt’s relationship will come to an end now that seemingly Britt revealed she knew Anna was held captive after Cullum came to town? Glad to know Anna won’t be haunted by visions of Peter August anymore? Weigh-in via the comment section below.
