Kirsten Storms Gives a Shout Out to Thank GH Fans & Kudos to Wes Ramsey
General Hospital’s beloved Kirsten Storms (Maxie) who consistently delivers in all of her scenes, took to her Instagram story within the last 24 hours to share her thoughts on the recently aired scenes where the truth about Peter’s (Wes Ramsey) machinations have been revealed.
Storms also wanted to thank the GH fans for enjoying and sticking with the telling of the story, relating: “First, I want to say thank you to the fans who are really digging this storyline with the truth about Peter coming out. We’ve all been working really hard, cast and crew, to bring you guys the show during this time when we have all these restrictions in place. But it’s well worth it. So thank you to the fans who are being supportive and have kind things to say.”
Kirsten also took a moment to give kudos to her co-star, Wes Ramsey, for his performances of playing bad guy Peter August which is so different than his real-life persona. Storms expressed: “I would also like to give props to Wes Ramsey. I’ve said this from the beginning, working with Wes, that he is the most professional, considerate, kindest actor that I have ever been paired with on GH. And I truly mean that. Working with him is a joy. And I want to give Wes props for his performances, especially lately. The juxtaposition of Wes’ personality and Peter’s personality is just crazy. They could not be any more different. Which is, to me, someone who really enjoys watching other actors’ performances and kind of taking my own notes on them for my performances, I really think that’s the sign of a great actor. So Wes, great job. To the fans who have been enjoying the storyline, thank you so much.”
So, what have you thought of Kirsten’s performances of late? It’s always heart-breaking to see Maxie betrayed. Will Maxie keep Peter away from their unborn baby? What did you think of the sentiments shared on Storms’ IG story? Comment below.
What a professional and sweet things for her to do. What a kind and genuine thing for her to say.
No matter how nice a guy Wes is IRL, the character has long overstayed his welcome and has dragged down many of the characters he interacts with.
As for the baby, please no more baby switches for the foreseeable future. We are just getting over the Wiley/Jonah drawn out saga; we don’t need another with Maxie and Brook Lynn.
Wes is an incredible actor
Well, he seems to think so.
Kirsten’s work has been exceptionally great lately. Though I’ve hated the Peter Puke pairing since day one, she’s weathered the story like a real pro, entirely believable. I don’t agree about the other performance…I find it to be Snidely Whiplash, cartoon level work. And I HATE the consistent mention of Drew’s death…just makes me miss Billy Miller.
Oh, my Billy!! I don’t believe Drew is dead, Soaphound—-nonetheless, I pray that Billy Miller will resume the role if Drew were to come back. No one else will do.
I can’t stand to even look at Ramsey—-I break out in hives.
Personal feelings aside, it was nice of Kirsten to speak so highly of him—albeit I can’t wait for him to go away!!
brownie points, for the prop. jeez! couldn’t you just have left well enough alone
^^^^”…someone who really enjoys watching other actors’ performances and kind of taking my own notes on them for my performances, I really think that’s the sign of a great actor ”
Wes Ramsey has been propped, spoon fed , given A list status…. nothing came of it
DONE
Thank You, Patrick. I couldn’t agree more. And his new mantra, “Now I’m gonna be Bad Petey” is as threatening as a marshmallow. Enough of this guy!
I fast fast forward through these two. They have zero chemistry. I always feel like the GH’s PR team is trying too hard sell this couple to fans. They almost seem to shrieking, “LOVE THIS COUPLE!”
Harry
Right again. It was very nice of K.S to make a special effort to boost up Wes Ramsey. I also hate the character of Peter but it’s like a lot of fans hate both Peter and Wes. He played a great guy on G.L, and the only thing I have to offer is that especially in this case, he is so good, that we love to hate him. I don’t think in all my many years of watching soaps, have I ever seen such an instant dislike and name calling of an character. Again, Maxie and Peter was a poor choice and maybe seeing them together, the many Maxie fans hated Peter all the more. Does that make any sense at all?
Violet…I still think why Wes/Peter has inspired such dislike with some is because of his association with another character many dislike…Carly which extends to the real life influence they think Laura had in getting him on GH.
Agree. Zero Chemistry. Maxie has chemistry with Spinnelli, JJ Lucky and RP Nathan. Can we please get Jonathan Jackson back recurring. GH fix his schedule however he needs but bring him back.
Two other couples fit zero chemistry for me…Finn and Anna, and Franco and Elizabeth. Will say I think Franco worked well with her “bozys” though. I do like the potential of Jason and “Brita.”
I agree with you, Rose, about all those couples. I don’t dislike Wes Ramsey. I just don’t like Peter, however, I really like him better as a villain. Jason is kind of cute with Britt. He and Sam just seem like the thrill is gone. They just don’t seem that into each other anymore.
Hi Harry 🙂
Sam and Jason were totally worn out 10 years ago.
They outlived their time– They needed to rip —
I luved Franco with Nina..
They clicked a good couple.
Franco was her knight for sure.
He fought through hell for her and I really liked them together.
Yes! Finn and Anna YUCK-
A grandma cougar thing— lol
Damn it to Hell, Sam!!
You should have let Dante COMPLETE THE MISSION!
Cerberus wants Heiny in Hell NOW!
Can’t we simply rid ourselves of this character…..Peter is a nauseating, weak repulsive coward…. Maxi chose this faux savior after being with sweet, kind, beautiful Nathan ❓❓❓Whatever was she thinking….With all the TRULY TALENTED actors on this show who have come and gone, Wes Ramshackle isn’t one of them cut him loose!
Satan–Peter is in with Cyrus now-
Perhaps Cyrus will kill Peter.
AHAA! what a gruesome-twosome- Hinrick and Cyrus. sheeshh
That is great and WR is a great actor and I wish him the very best but it is way past time for Peter to be written off.
I actually feel bad for Peter!! I really liked him. Was wishing it could work for him and Maxie. He’s a great actor. He was trying to have a good life. But he has to much in his past to overcome and when things go bad he becomes that other guy again. I really don’t want another baby switch storyline either. I know it’s only a soap but can’t anyone have a little happiness. Every character is miserable!! It depressing to watch!
Mary..I agree with you in all of your points. Especially the miserable/depressing ones.
And as a shout out to Kirsten/Maxie…while she can be smart, the writers usually have her playing a ditzy, always in a hurry character. Glad to see they are giving her some good script to work and she’s able to show off her good stuff.
rose, she better show off some really good stuff when Peter kidnaps her, and we know he will, but I hope we don’t have to see him deliver a second baby, if it causes her to go into labor.

GENERAL HOSPITAL Preview: Serena Sets Her Sights on Michael; Jason’s Emotional Exit from the Mob
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.

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