Ahh!!! What about west coast?! We want to see them too! 🙁 send llanview out to CA!!

I live 15 min outside Cincy..I am so excited and it’s my moms Bday.:) Cannot wait!

I am on their mailing list WAITING for this event to come to my neck of the woods and i’ll be out of state!!! ARGH!!! Why didn’t the send this to their mailing list?

Williamsburg, Va…..come on!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I wish I could go!!! I’m in NYC and missed the last 1 Jan. Had tckts but was sick, real sick, dumb luck.

Sounds like the last 1was a hit and they’re going to party again:) Seems like they really miss and enjoy each other and a fun group. Wish I could go:( Gone but not forgotten, yep, yep!!!! Can’t wait to see the pics and vids. Will look out for’em. And some important ques will be asked and maybe answered, or will know some answers by then. Exciting!!!

What is ABC waiting to release a special DVD collection of OLTL? P&G did it with GL and ATWT. OLTL should get it own DVD collection too. But, we’re talking about ABC here. Not the brightest people on earth.

I wish ABC would at least show reruns of OLTL this summer instead of more news. If they want to boost ratings and make money they should put OLTL back into production in some form this fall. I don’t buy for one minute that ABC/Disney doesn’t have the money. At least ABC used the one collective brain cell they had left to renew GH. Outside of GH, I still and will continue to boycott all ABC shows and Disney products until they come to their senses.

Thats what I said put reruns of one life to live on we have enough news. abc/disney just bought in to a hispanic news network it will be done in english,Heres a Idea why cant the hispanics tune into cnn,msnbc,and fox, they can listen to the news in english there to, in other words they could have kept the soaps instead of waste more money on garbage ,there is just so many news stories in a day, And I am a news junkie and I know we have enough news places to go, I hope there news channel sinks.

There are reruns of OLTL on the soap channel .. My cable station for it is 158..It’s on 7: 00am & 8:00am .. To watch reruns for me makes me miss OLTL even more…………………….

I wiuld have really liked to have gone to the Loving LandView but I live in Fl. The they were in N.Y…They should have had this in Fl.. The SunShine State….Then I could have gone… Would have been really nice to meet the cast of OLTL face to face….I would probably been tongue-tied…..Or not………………………….

I live in florida to, and it would be nice if loving landview would come here. me, Tongue tied, Never. I would love to ask several questions. And enjoy myself with my favorite characters from one life to live.

Nancy Lee Grahn’s Star-Studded ALS Fundraiser Reveals “I’ll Be There” Video Featuring Soap Opera Notables

Talk about your impressive line-up! It’s a soap fans dream and for a great cause. General Hospital’s Nancy Lee Grahn (Alexis Davis) is prepping her one-night only ALS fundraiser which will feature many of her friends and co-stars.

The benefit is set for May 4th in Glendale, California. Slated to participate are Genie Francis, Jane Elliot, Peter Bergman, Maurice Benard, Eileen Davidson, Thorsten Kaye, Michelle Stafford, Stephen Nichols, Rena Sofer, Jason Thompson, Kelly Monaco, Melissa Claire Egan, Maura West, Kristina Wagner, Gregory Harrison, Trevor St. John, Kate Mansi, Kirsten Storms, Cynthia Watros, and many others.

On Wednesday, Grahn took to her social media and released an “I’ll be there” video shout-out featuring, Monaco, Elliot, Bergman, Bernard, West, Harrison, St. John and more. In a touching and important moment in the new video, Michelle Strogny, who is battling ALS, is featured.

Previously, in speaking with Soap Opera Digest on the impetus of the event, Grahn recalled, “I was actually doing Zoom events during Covid and I met this woman that I just fell in love with, Michelle Strojny. At the time, Michelle had been living with ALS for four years. Now, it’s five years. She is a mom of a teenage son, she has the most wonderful husband, and she has been dealing with this [disease] for quite a while. And obviously, there isn’t a cure yet. It’s not survivable yet. But as she says, it’s not incurable. Nothing is; it’s underfunded. But anyway, I just really dug this woman. She is so grounded and filled with grace, and she spends all of her time working to raise money for the cause. We did a fundraiser for her last year and then I thought, ‘You know what? The soaps don’t ever get together to do something for charity.’ Collectively, we have this amazing community and we don’t collectively use it for a good cause, and I think it’s such an easy thing for us to do and we could potentially really make a difference.”

As GH viewers know, Gregory Harrison is playing the character of Gregory Chase, who is also battling ALS in a touching storyline that is currently playing out shedding a light on this disease.

‘General Hospital’ Writer Shannon Peace Let Go, and Shares on Sprina: “One of My Only Regrets is to Not Have the Opportunity to Develop That ‘Ship’ Further”

As General Hospital’s new head writing team of Elizabeth Korte and Patrick Mulcahy gets off the ground and running, there are still changes a foot on the writing team.

Now comes word via breakdown writer Shannon Peace that she is no longer on contract with the long-running ABC soap heading into its 61st season. Peace shared a heartfelt message on her Instagram, thanking the fans, and the show for the opportunity and the importance of diversity in the writers room.

Peace began, “After almost 3 years on staff and 106 episodes penned, I am no longer on contract with General Hospital. Writing for this country’s longest running television serial drama has been an education of epic proportions; I will forever be grateful that I earned my WGA card on a daytime fixture that holds memories for so many.” (Peace pictured below with GH EP Frank Valentini and script writer, Charlotte Gibson from about ten months ago).

Shannon added “Even more importantly, as the sole Black breakdown writer (and only POC in the writers room) during my tenure, I pushed for vital interactions and discussions that prioritized inclusion, visibility, and representation”

The writer pointed to the example of vital interaction when in story, “Stella and Portia’s frank July 2022 conversation about the role race played in Esme’s framing of Trina is just one example of the impact I’m gratified to have had.”

Acknowledging former GH co-head writers was also part of Peace’s farewell expressing, “Appreciation to my former bosses, Chris Van Etten and Dan O’Connor – not only taking a chance on me, but for valuing my opinion and championing my voice.”

Many GH fans know that Peace was key to the development of the love story between Trina Robinson and Spencer Cassadine as played by Tabyana Ali and Nicholas Chavez. Shannon gave a special shout-out to ‘Sprina’ fans, “I also want to thank fans who were supportive of my work, especially the recognition of my love for ‘Sprina’. One of my only regrets is not having to develop that ‘ship’ further.”

She concludes her statement with,”In the aftermath of a historic writer’s strike that shed new light on the troubling ways writers are regarded in daytime, my sincere hope is that General Hospital recommits to valuing staff writer efforts and input, with a more intentional focus on diverse viewpoints — and thrives for another 60 years.”

Accompanying her post, Shannon added, “Thank you all for the love and support these last few years. I hope GH fans get all they hope for and more!”

So, what do you think about GH not renewing Shannon’s contract? Will there be more continued changes afoot? What do you think is the future of ‘Sprina’ anyway at this point as viewers wait to see if Nicholas Chavez officially returns to the show?  Comment below.
