If you caught yesterday’s episode of General Hospital, there was a new detective on the beat, when ‘The Hook’ tried to take out both Josslyn (Eden McCoy) and Britt (Kelly Thiebaud).

Enter former Ambitions star, Kendrick Cross. The actor most-known to soap fans for his role as Titus Hughes on the OWN soap opera, took to his Instagram to announce his gig in Port Charles.

Kendrick shared the casting news, expressing: “Welp I guess the news is out!!! Might as well let ya know that ya boy is on General Hospital.  Been holding on to this secret for weeks lol huge huge shout out to @entlab.la they saw the vision and hopped right on board!!! It’s only going up from here… New episodes coming soon…!!! #LetsGo”

Look for Cross to be recurring on the ABC daytime drama series.   In addition to his role on GH, look for Kendrick to make a guest-star turn in the upcoming January 17th episode of the new ABC crime drama Will Trent.

Now the question is, will Detective Bennett fare better than the other cops and investigators at the PCPD, where somehow criminals slip through their fingers every single time? Time will tell.

So, what did you think of Kendrick’s debut on GH?  Comment below.

I wonder if he’ll be coupled with Jordan? I think they’d look good together. Maybe it would be a secret romance in jeopardy because of them working at the police station.

Why do we need another detective? Put Chase back on the beat.

I agree, Jacqueline. Traditionally the PCPD is just there to provide unintentional laughs, particularly the denser- than-dirt Dante. This guy seems like another waste of space. Let’s have Chase back..at least he’s a good person.

Soaphound
I think they only reason they keep Dante is that he’s Sonny’s son and the friction their relationship causes. I can’t stand him and Sam together. I thought they might grow on me with time but still don’t see anything there. Yes, put Chsse back where he belongs, which certainly isn’t with that controlling Brook Lyn.

while I will agree that Brooklyn is controlling, I do really love Amanda Sellton in the role. She was also wonderful in her Gossip Girl role, back in the original series. I would love to see her and Tracy ( Jane Elliott ) have a big storyline together. It is very humorous when she refers to her as “granny”

HaHaHa—-unintentional laughs!! Good one, Soaphound. I consider Dante a marionette (and,anyone who says “should have “went” instead of should have “gone” is a goner to me) —then coupled with Sam?—- my-oh-my!! The most boring couple on TV—and her voice!! I don’t know which is more irritating —hers or nuTrina’s.

I am bored near to death with the hook story..
It was stupid from the git-go..
Whoever came up with that waste of air-time story should
be sent to Siberia..
A hook killer BWAA HAA for gawdsake–

LOL. Su—-it’s sort of twisted/ironic poetic justice because to me the hook symbolizes Ryan’s missing hand.

Hi Celia –Loooong time, hope all is well and happy in your life 🙂
The hook sucks LOL it’s not exciting, not suspenseful, no drama,
it’s just showing us a hook=lame.
a total snooze..
-it’s merely a way to get rid of characters..-

The show had a perfectly good policeman in Rory and I wish he could come back.

Well if Rory gets to come back from being dead… then so does Britt ? Unless the entire hook storyline is nothing more than a bad dream sequence… Dallas got away with eliminating an entire season doing this…so perhaps GH can too.

On a semi-related note, did I miss something regarding the poison Selina gave Victor? Talk about a nothing-burger!

Bill W
Don’t think it’s been mentioned since, gosh I hate that man

I know., Bill—What happened with that??

For real I was thinking the same thing.

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.

MONDAY, AUGUST 3
Jason makes a sacrifice for Danny. Elizabeth becomes privy to a secret. Carly is touched. Valentin has a warning for Nina. Josslyn cautions Brennan.

TUESDAY, AUGUST 4
Brook Lynn and Chase celebrate a milestone. Trina gets an earful. Carly’s plan backfires. Curtis is skeptical. Michael is anxious about his family’s’ future.

WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 5
Sonny wants answers. Ava is struck with inspiration. Curtis’ trial begins. Brook Lynn wrestles with a big decision. Lucy and Serena scheme.

THURSDAY, AUGUST 6
Sonny makes a stunning announcement. Serena makes her move. Willow faces a new threat. Isaiah takes the stand. Lucy questions Laura.

FRIDAY, AUGUST 7
Josslyn is taken aback. Ava courts a new ally. Jordan and Anna catch up. Isaiah vents to Lucas and Elizabeth. Michael questions Jacinda.

Check out the latest ABC promo for General Hospital entitled, “What Did You Do?” below.

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

Published

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.
