Kendrick Cross Debuts as GH’s Detective Bennett

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: Brook Lynn and Chase Have Their Bachelor and Bachelorette Parties

On General Hospital, Brook Lynn (Amanda Setton) and Chase (Josh Swickard) both were treated to Bachelorette and Bachelor parties to shake off any of those pre-wedding jitters. At The Savoy, the ladies have a touching and fun time with Brook Lynn.

The bride-to-be gives a speech to thank everyone for coming, while Lois lets everyone know to try the signature cocktail the “Brooklynn Chaser”, which gets everybody eventually and mostly, drunk.

When Tracy (Jane Elliot) questions Lois (Rena Sofer) as to why there is no music for the party, Lois realizes she forgot, and somehow, who does she call to the rescue? Spinelli (Bradford Anderson)! Saving the day, he winds up playing some tunes and later gets on the dance floor to ‘shake it off’ with the gals.

Lois makes a speech as the mother of the bride, and shares how proud she is of the woman Brook Lynn has become. Wedding games begin, including one of “hot potato” with a wedding bouquet.

When it’s time for the “Silly Poses” section of the party, Spinelli has now morphed from DJ to staff photographer taking memorable photos of the ladies to remember the evening by.

The best part of the event, was when Brook Lynn tries to get her grandmother Tracy out on the dance floor, which, at first, she refuses. After several of the guests bust a move, a tipsy Tracy joins the dance party after Joss mentions that if her grandmother Bobbie was here, she would dance. Tracy says “she agrees” and begins to cut a rug on the floor, much to the delight of the other women.

In the final moments, a tipsy Joss and Kristina (Kate Mansi) have a confrontation about Sonny, and Joss lets Kristina in more on Sonny’s behavior, which looks to have clued in Kristina a bit more as to how something is way off about her dad.

Across town at the Hatchett Bar, Dante (Dominic Zamprogna) and the men with the exception of Anna (Finola Hughes) and Jordan (Tanisha Harper), all attend Chase’s Bachelor Party where throwing hatchets into a dart board for supremacy is the order of the day. Drew (Cameron Mathison) and Ned (Wally Kurth) get into some words over ELQ, while Dante makes a toast to his police partner, Chase.

Suddenly Dex (Evan Hofer) shows up. Chase thanks Dex for coming, but Dex gets some dirty looks from other cops on the force. Dante gives Chase his present, which is a signed baseball by the Boston Red Sox.

Ned (Wally Kurth) makes a speech that although no one is good enough for his daughter, Brook Lynn, Chase has come closer than anyone has, so welcome to the family. Running in at the end is Blaze (Jacqueline Grace Lopez), who just left Brook Lynn’s party, and she toasts her singing partner, Chase, and to the great man that he is.

Cameron Mathison Previews New Game Show ‘Beat The Bridge’ (Promo)

As previously reported, Cameron Mathison (Drew, General Hospital) will be seen doing double duty this summer when he premieres in June as the host of Game Show Network’s Beat The Bridge.

Now, while Cameron will be the host with the most, that doesn’t mean he will stop playing GH’s Drew.  In fact, Mathison taped the game show in 2023, so it will now air for the first time in 2024.

Taking to his Instagram this week, Cameron shared his enthusiasm and some new hosting snaps, sharing, “Our newest game show host reporting for duty😎 Head over to the Game Show Network YouTube channel for your first look at the show and don’t miss Beat The Bridge premiering this June! I can’t wait for you guys to see this!”

In Beat The Bridge, an enormous interactive bridge dares players to cross by stepping on the right answers to challenging trivia questions. As they play, each steps forward and puts money in their team’s bank, with bonus money for each successful crossing. Here’s the catch: the team gets to keep the money only if it can “beat the bridge” by returning one of its players back across before time expires.

Meanwhile, on GH, Drew and Nina (Cynthia Watros) recently had hate-sex. Do you think its a one-time deal? Where will Drew’s story take him next under new head writers, Patrick Mulcahey and Elizabeth Korte? Stay tuned.

Now below, check out the first promo for Beat The Bridge from the Game Show Network with you host, Cameron Mathison.  Then, let us know, will you be checking out the game this summer? Share your thoughts in the comment section.

GENERAL HOSPITAL: Nina Confronts Ava for Sabotaging Her Relationship With Sonny and Signs the Divorce Papers

Looks like Nina (Cynthia Watros) and Ava (Maura West) are back to be each other’s sworn enemy number one. By the end of the Monday, April 22nd episode of General Hospital, the women know where they stand with each other after Nina goes in on Ava accusing her of wanting Sonny (Maurice Benard) all to herself, while her marriage has been on the rocks.

In story, at Nina’s office, Ava shows up to see Nina and says she is sorry about what happened with Sonny and that he reacted the way he did, acknowledging that is was over the top, even for Sonny. Ava says she’ll smooth things over, but Nina says she now understands how manipulative and transparent Ava really is.

Given their horrible history, Nina goes in on Ava and how she should never have trusted her. Nina wants to know how long has Ava had this agenda dating all the way back to telling Nina to turn Carly (Laura Wright) and Drew (Cameron Mathison) into the SEC. Ava says she never told her do to that, but Nina wants to know how long Ava has been playing her for a fool.

Ava says she moved in with Sonny to keep Avery safe and she wants to be on good terms with Avery’s father, Sonny. Nina thinks she likes being in Sonny’s inner circle. Ava tells Nina if she goes to him about her advising Nina to call the SEC on Carly and Drew, it won’t work.  Sonny still considers Nina a traitor and he will think she’s lying because she’s so desperate to win him back. Ava says if Nina would stop blaming everyone else that maybe Sonny would respect her.  Nina says “like he does you?” Ava says Sonny not only respects her, but he also counts on her.

From there, Ava launches into why she and Sonny understand each other, after all, Sonny is a powerful, turbulent, and sometimes violent man. She goes so far to say if Nina wanted someone to just sit by the fire with and play with their grandchildren, she’s got the wrong guy.  Ava then talks about Mike from Nixon Falls (Sonny with amnesia) and how Sonny hid the darkest parts of himself from Nina back then, whereas with Ava they are the same similar creatures, so he doesn’t have to hide anything.

Nina wants to know just what Ava wants with Sonny? What is her end game? Ava responds that they understand each other, in ways she can’t with Sonny. Nina tells Ava she can go ahead and have it all and signs Sonny’s divorce papers. Ava walks out with the documents, while Nina in tears at her desk, takes off her wedding rings and has her assistant come in so she can messenger the rings back to Sonny’s address.

The episode and these scenes featured great performances by Cynthia Watros and Maura West. You can check some of the scenes below.

Now, let us know, what is Ava’s next move? Is she going to become Mrs. Sonny Corinthos? Do you like Ava and Nina as enemies? Comment below.
