General Hospital
Nancy Lee Grahn's GENERAL HOSPITAL NOW Set To Bow in January 2015!
Courtesy/ABC.com
The new Nancy Lee Grahn (Alexis) hosted online series, General Hospital Now, will finally have its unveiling in January 2015!
The show which ABC is touting as Nancy asking the hard-hitting questions that fans want to know such as ““You are really good looking. Have you had work done?” looks to be a hybrid of late night talk show and sketch comedy! General Hospital Now will feature a panel of celebrity GH fans, soap studs, fun games and an overdose of side-splitting sketch comedy! It will feature many cast members from GH too!
Fans will be able to check it the show via WATCH ABC & ABC.com! And, they can use the hashtag #GHNow when discussing it and more!
Now after the jump, watch the first official teaser for General Hospital Now and then let us know what you think of it?
I like that..
I will be watching, looks like fun..
and-
I test my ”work done ‘ skills..(kidding)
I worked with a plastic surgeon for 8 years and everytime I see work done I smile with a ”caught jah” lol
Nancy asked Duke if he had work done, yes he has and I know where lol an easy one..
OK– I’m ready to watch!! .. most all the GH cast have a great sense of humor and are humorous.. they seem to be a happy group that has a good time.. Hope Roger will be a guest!!
((I wonder if there will be guests from other soaps)
It’s about time they did something like this. They need to have more online shows. They could even bring back OLTL and AMC in some form and put them on ABC.com.
Can’t wait
It looks like a fun show. I will be watching for sure.
Looks quite fun…and Monsieur Ian Buchanan aka Duke is so good looking, refined, elegant…love him! I have mixed feelings about these types of shows..even when I watch one of your (Michael Fairman) interviews. I so want to get lost in these shows/characters, that I don’t want anything to break that fourth wall. On the other hand, if it’s a good show and the actors I like seem likeable in “real” life…I might just tune in. Either way, I like Nancy and I trust whatever she’s involved in will be good.
Sorry to b off topic…was that a FAIKEson with Dr. Liesl today…i doubt it was the real Faison…he doesnt love Dr.O…Faison is the Luke with Tracy while Jerry Jax was pretending to be Faison pretending to be the Fluke holding a gun on Julian…there are two Flukes in PC while the real Luke is still missing!!!
I don’t know jimh! when “Luke” first walked in with Alexis during Thanksgiving many of us thought Helena had switched the real Luke with Fluke…because she seemed too calm when Alexis and Julian found out where Luke was being held. I was SURE they had switched them! Then today…I thought maybe it really was Luke…his personality was so much more like the real Luke that I’m wondering if it’s an imposter again…why didn’t they have him acting more Luke-like from the beginning! So…if it is the real Luke…I’m wondering if Lord Larry is Fluke…after he escaped from the Q’s he could have put on the mask and rushed over to Julian’s to kill him. Faison? I think it’s really him…not sure if he’s had a change of heart over Dr. O…but he’s definitely part of the master plan as we know since he and Helena were talking. The story is great for the very fact that they still have us guessing! Kudos to the writers!
Thanks for your explaination…sounds good…i still fear real Luke is being held and we had seen two Flukes in PC and a FAIKEson and maybe even a fake Larry…the Fluke at Julians is Jerry Jax also pretending to be Faison while the real Faison wore a mask pretending to be Larry while at the Q mansion that Fluke is Anthony Z…meanwhile, that Jake may not even be Jason….i think too much…its given me a headache…lol
Actually, maybe it’s really OLTL disguised as GH! And nobody is who they appear to be! 🙂
You could be right…sometimes it does feel like im watching OLTL and not GH…lol
Honestly? You know what I’d love? And I knowwwwww this would create mad chaos and divide amongst fans who feel the canvas is too big as it is. But, in this day and age of dwindling soaps…I think it would be great to bring MORE fan favorites from other bygone soaps…on. For me, it would be Bo and Nora, Vicki, Tea, even in sporadic appearances. Let Tea or Nora go up against Alexis or Diane…or even be called in to work in conjunction with…let Bo be called in to help Anna…just to keep these characters alive in a crossover that would obviously only cross in one direction since the GHers would have no Llandview to visit… Sigh.
Oh. And Vicki…let’s see…Vicki could give the Q’s a run for their money and mansion…or get back to her working in the diner days and open up a new cozy cafe! yay! or not… hmmmmm….
Id like Erika Slezak’s Viki to somehow be related to the Qs…
she’s too different than them…unless they aged her and brought her in as Lila’s sister…the voice of reason and soul of compassion…until of course she became her evil twin, cousin, sister etc in the many faces of Vicki!
Yes. This is going to be really great !!!
I cannot wait! I love seeing a different side of the actors and the behind the scenes stuff will be really cool.
Wow This looks really really good, I will tune in for this. I love Nancy Lee Grahn, she is a terrific actress and looks sexy for 56 years old. Alexis Davis is the boss, love her so much.
The show looks like fun. So, I’ll tune in. But, I hope they also feature some behind-the-scenes GH staff, who people always ask about. GH fans are always asking about Ava’s, Jordan’s, and Duke’s wardrobe. So, it would be nice to have the costume designer on. Maybe even go shopping with one of the assistants!

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.
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.

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.
