Kelly Monaco Tapes Final Episode and Wraps Her Run as General Hospital’s Sam McCall
Friday, September 27th marked the last tape day for GH veteran, Kelly Monaco in the role of Sam McCall, a part she has played for 21 years on the ABC daytime drama series.
The word of Monaco’s final day on set, came from her mother, Carmina Monaco, who shared an emotional and heartfelt post about her daughter’s exit. Kelly started on GH back on October 1, 2003.
Carmina began her post on X, “I want to take this moment to reach out to Kelly’s incredible fans and express my deepest gratitude for the unwavering love, loyalty, and support you’ve shown her throughout her time on General Hospital. On this final day, just four days shy of the anniversary of her first episode on October 1, 2003, Kelly will close the door of her dressing room for the last time.”

Kelly mom’s went on to say, “This moment is a difficult one, but knowing that she has had such an incredible, devoted fan base has given her strength. You’ve stood by her through every twist and turn, celebrating her achievements and providing comfort in the hard times. Your love and dedication have meant more than words can express, not only to Kelly but to all of us who care so deeply for her. Thank you for being there, for believing in her, and for reminding her of the impact she’s made. We will always be grateful for you standing with her through it all.”

The news of Kelly’s impending departure, did not go quietly with GH fans, in fact they launched an incredible campaign, #IStandWithKelly, to save Monaco from being written-off the show, in what has been shared as a storyline-dictated move, since sources also revealed the character of Sam was going to be killed-off.
The fan campaign as of tonight (on September 27th_ had over 16,000 signatures on petition, plus the group took out a billboard in Times Square and a truck with a billboard to drive around ABC Prospect Studios to call attention to the dismissal of their favorite actress and hopes she would be reinstated to the show.
While GH has never given any official statement on Kelly’s exit, nor has Monaco herself spoken on her social media about the departure as of yet, soap fans are gearing up for the end of the run for this major star.
So, sad to hear that today marked Kelly Monaco’s final tape date at GH? Comment below.
I want to take this moment to reach out to Kelly’s incredible fans and express my deepest gratitude for the unwavering love, loyalty, and support you’ve shown her throughout her time on General Hospital. On this final day, just four days shy of the anniversary of her first…

I’m really disappointed in GH decision, this is such a great mistake, the only thing I can hope is that we don’t see the character die on screen so that she can show up later being much alive once GH keeps getting bonbarded for making such a bad decision.
Yes I hope so
The day Kelly Monaco leaves GH is the day several people I know stop watching permanently. They do not care about the return of Lucky or Holly.
I will be one of those people who stops watching GH permanently. Kelly was my girl. All you GH fans who dedicate your time watching your favorite on the show remember they didn’t care about Kelly or her fans and they not only fired her they killed her character. Your fav could be next. No one is safe as long as FV, and all the other goons are gone for good!!
I don’t think that’s actually her mom, I think that’s an account that’s been trolling the fans for a while. Why would you call yourself Kelly’s Mom when you’ve got 6 other kids? And isn’t KM almost 50? Either way, I wish her well and can’t wait to see how this plays out!
It’s her mom. And why would she call herself Kelly’s mom? Because her other kids aren’t actors with followers on social media. She addresses comments that concern Kelly on GH, Kelly and Billy, Kelly’s reaction to Billy’s passing, etc.
Yes, I know what the account does…and it’s a little odd when KM is almost 50 and can speak for herself or through professional representation. Just saying, if I was publicly fired, I wouldn’t want my mom guilt-tripping people online over it! That might resonate with the fans, but I don’t see it going over well anywhere else lol.
Sad that abc Disney allows those in charge to repeatedly do this… Finn was written into a dull corner, then written out, same w roger howarth…so when they stopped using kelly we all knew the writing was on the wall… sadly the 5-6 sets of writers in the last year or two are not always up on show history or fan favorites… and ewww w Drew the stalker…
I blame Disney too…they are squeezing ABC. Leave the soaps alone!
I miss RoHo as Franco and will miss KM’s Sam, but I don’t miss Finn. They wrote some many characters for him and none really worked on the show, IMO. I like that they’re bringing back some legacy characters and rebuilding the Laura’s family. I wish they’d also bring back Nicholas, Cameron and Jake.
I’m sorry that Kelly/Sam will no longer be on GH. I know Sam will be killed off, but this show has repeatedly brough back multiple characters from beyond the grave in the past, whose to say it won’t happen with Sam.
I wish Kelly all the best in her future endeavors. I hope Kelly gets the attention of Ryan Murphy or Tayler Sheridan, so she will find much success in primetime or films.
I for one will continue watching GH because the show is bigger than one character. I will continue to support the ensamble cast and crew because they deserve the fans loyalty for all the work they put in to the show.
Pretty sure the photo is from the last good detective-oriented storyline Sam had with Cody saving Sasha last year. I hope that GH does Sam’s character right and at least give her final scenes with each cast member on screen for one last time. That will make the death much more meaningful.
She hasn’t been interacting with many of them for months now – it will make those last scenes so much more powerful.
Also, not sure that in real life her Liver would automatically go to Lulu if she was a match. Lulu is not on the list. But if Sam is brain-dead – then a good story about her being able to donate her organs would be nice.
I have always admired the character of Sam. She was such a strong, independent woman! But, in the last several years, the writers have portrayed her as a simpering, whiny, insecure woman…….huge waste of a huge talent!
I couldn,t have said it better myself
I just don’t understand the writers and producers firing and killing off Sam’s character.This is a mistake I hope when the ratings drop( which they will)they will reverse!I just don’t get it
Why do people say such silly things the ratings will not drop because of one character never has never will. They haven’t used Sam in a storyline for I don’t know how long which probably why they feel she is expendable like they did when Lulu was put in a coma, or when they killed Alan, Emily or A.J off one character won’t effect the ratings one way or another
Their decision to kill Alan and AJ Quartermaine off was horrible! Two legacy characters from a legacy family; they decimated that family. What a stupid, stupid, decision. Stuart Damon was blindsided and devastated from what I read. I don’t blame him….
Thank you Hallie for being reasonable. I’ve been watching GH since the mid 80s when Luke and Laura made this show popular. I have seen many of my favorite characters killed off (Alan, Emily, Jake, Jason, Robin, Franco) and others come and go over the years, but I never stopped watching the show. I’m sad to see Sam go, but I will keep watching for as long as the show is on the air.
Writers don’t make the decisions on who comes and goes.
Whatever is going on, I wish nothing but the best for Kelly and I’m keeping her in my thoughts.
i will never understand why they are doing this to kelly sometimes it dosent pay to be loyal to a tv show it so incredible to beleave they can do this to kelly i will never understand why they dident reunite her with steve when he came back to general hospital they were and will alway be a magical couple.
Well it does seem there was some issues between her and Steve which could be why they didn’t reunite them but since they broke them up Kelly got less airtime and very little story. This isn’t something new for any show characters come and go some get to stay long term some don’t they have killed off many characters that were on for years look at Alan Q. There is no guarantee for any actor on any show this isn’t the first time won’t be the last but there does seem to be some backstage issue at play here
Some fans claim she wasn’t happy when SB returned as Jason in 2017 as his return pushed then Billy Miller out of the role of Jason. But I actually liked BM more as Drew Cain as opposed to Jason. I understand she and BM were close friends and she was loyal to him, but the character of Sam only became popular because of her connection to Burton’s Jason. If KM decided she no longer wanted to work with Burton, then maybe she put herself in this situation. I was surprised to see so many JaSam fans hating on her when Jason returned and she didn’t want Danny around his father. So that could have all factored into this decision.
No one missed LuLu . Everyone will miss Sam !!! Big mistake GH !!!
Don’t make this about “Sam vs Lulu”. Lulu’s comeback was long overdue. The Spencer family has been part of GH’s core since 1978.
Bottom line is if cast cuts were inevitable, they should have drawn a hard line in the brimstone and started (and ended) with characters created after February 2012.
Please don’t generalize not “everyone” will miss Sam. Most long term characters need breaks. Lulu had a good long rest and many (not saying most or everyone) of us are looking forward to the recast.
She will land on her feet more drama back stage then on the show
Soap stars have “ died” on screen and miraculously come back to life at a future date. We have hope for Kelly.
I’m sure this is an unpopular opinion… She was employed for 21 years (or 24 if you include PC). She was let go. If it was for an illegal reason, she and her lawyers will deal with that. But as for the show, Sam has been on the backburner for so long. What has she been doing other than complaining about Jason? And those fans who say “what about her kids?” What a crazy comment. First, it’s a TV show. Second, even if it were real life, parents die. Third, the Quartermaine ophanage has room for them. KM hopefully was wise with her pay over the past 24 years. I’m sure she’ll be fine. Me, I’m looking forward to the story and hope they do a good job with it. I just don’t want Alexis to turn to alcohol. That’s lazy writing.
Rosie O’Donnell revealed that she plans to head back to a seat at the table of ABC’s morning talk show The View.
The announcement came during Monday’s episode of The Tangle Podcast where she shared she will participate in “in whatever way they want” her or “just as a guest” for its upcoming 30th season.
The View’s season 30 will kick-off this fall in September. O’Donnell explained, “They’re bringing back all the hosts, I think. And, you know, I’m pretty proud of that show, what it’s become and how it really speaks to the people and to politics.”

ROSIE ON HER PREVIOUS GO-ROUNDS ON THE VIEW
As fans of The View know, O’Donnell famously had two different one-year stints on the talk show in 2007 and again in 2014- 2015. She often feuded with then co-host Elizabeth Hasselbeck.
However, during her discussion with host, Kyle Ridley on The Tangle Podcast, O’Donnell also noted she often had tense moments with longtime moderator and anchor, Whoopi Goldberg.
O’Donnell also expressed, “Many, many people got the short end of the stick there. It was, you know, it was a factory where people were being churned in and out and their tenuous security, nobody got to be calm. It also was a show at the time that was run by a man. A show created by a woman, for women, about women, and the man was deciding what we should talk about. And that didn’t sit right with me, you know.”
Back in 2023, Brooke Shields had asked Rosie on her podcast, Now What? with Brooke Shields, about how she felt on her two stints at The View and all the controversy that surrounded it. Rosie at that time, stated, “I know this, it’s not the best use of my talent to get in a show where I have to argue and defend basic principles of humanity and kindness. It was not something I’d ever do again.”
You can check out the clip with Rosie and Kyle Ridley discussing her return to The View in some form for its upcoming 30th season below.
Then weigh-in: Would you be excited to see Rosie, even for a one-day or a week guest stint on the upcoming celebratory season of The View, or not so much? Let us know via the comment section.

In what could prove to be a massive shake-up ahead, both the TV Academy (ATAS), who presides over the Primetime Emmys, and the National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences (NATAS), who preside over the Daytime Emmys, are in exploratory reunification discussions to merge the two organizations into one.
Both sides received an overwhelming vote and support from their boards to evaluate what a unified Academy could look like. However there is no formal calendar at this juncture for the discussions. In addition, because of the ongoing unification talks that should occur, the TV Academy board has voted to extend all current sitting Governors’ terms by one year so they can see the process through.
Boards at both organizations voted overwhelmingly to evaluate what a unified Academy could make possible: a strong vision for the Academy’s future, more effective thought leadership for the industry, broader service and support for members coast-to-coast, and new momentum and opportunities across the full complement of national Emmy competitions.

AFTER NEARLY 50 YEARS, CAN THE EMMYS BE UNDER ONE BANNER?
In a joint statement, ATAS and NATAS shared, “Television remains the most powerful medium we have to shape culture and prompt conversations that define us—no matter the size of the screen, With the business of television undergoing such a monumental transformation, this is the right moment to explore a reunification of our Academies, providing our members and our industry with a bolder voice advocating for them and a stronger partner to navigate the future with them.”
If the reunification talks continue, this would be the first time since the two Emmy organizations split back on June 30, 1977 that they have tried to come together, all of this after almost three decades of often uneasy and strained tension between the two.
The most recent joint change came in 2022 when a move of the game show categories went from NATAS to ATAS’ and now are in the Primetime Emmys.
Deadline notes that a unification of the two television academies who overall preside over nighttime and daytime programming would be similar how SAG and AFTRA used to represent performers from completely different dayparts of work.
Could the Daytime Emmys finally see some love in primetime and have their major categories televised as part of the annual kudofest every September? Stay tuned.
Meanwhile, the 78th Primetime Emmy Awards ceremony will take place live on Monday, September 14th starting at 8:00 p.m. ET / 5:00 p.m. PT and air on NBC and stream on Peacock emanating from the Peacock Theatre in Los Angeles. While, the 53rd annual Daytime Emmy Awards will take place on Friday, October 30, time to be announced, live from the Hollywood Palladium and will be streamed on watchtheemmys.tv
The National Academy of Television Arts & Sciences (NATAS) is a service organization dedicated to the advancement of the arts and sciences of television and the promotion of creative leadership for artistic, educational and technical achievements within the television industry. It recognizes excellence in television with the coveted Emmy Awards for News & Documentary, Sports, Daytime and Children’s & Family programming, as well as achievements in television Technology & Engineering.
The Television Academy (ATAS) strives to shape and advance the dynamic television landscape; cultivate a diverse, inclusive and accessible professional community; and advocate for the television industry while capturing the spirit of a new generation of content creators and industry professionals. Through innovative programs, publications and events, the Academy and its Foundation foster and empower storytellers. The Academy also celebrates those who excel in the industry recognizing their achievements through awards and accolades, including the renowned Emmy Award. Membership in the Academy is open to working professionals in the television industry.
So, would you like to see the Primetime Emmy and the Daytime Emmys fold into one show if the two unions reached a unification arrangement? Do you hope that after almost 50 years, the two organizations can finally make some serious headway? Share your thoughts via the comment section below.
