NEXT WEEK: The Men Of General Hospital and Kelly Monaco Visit The Chew!

ABC is once again crossing over the talented performers of General Hospital with the cooking foodie/talker The Chew.  But not on an actual fictional episode of the soap opera,  such as with the Relish Wars, but this time, actors themselves will appear on The Chew!

So, that means on the upcoming Thursday October 24th episode, look for some of your favorite men from Port Charles to participate in some cooking and some chatter along with the one GH gal to keep them company, Kelly Monaco (Sam)!

Scheduled to appear from GH are: Roger Howarth (Franco) Jason Thompson (Patrick), Sean Blakemore (Shawn), Tyler Christopher (Nikolas), and the aforementioned Monaco!

The Chew airs weekdays at 1PMEST on ABC.  And in addition to the GH stars next week, Nashville’s Hayden Panettiere will stop by The Chew on Monday, October 21st and help ‘Chew’ host Clinton Kelly make a Roasted Pork Tenderloin with Apples and then the duo will play a prank on The Chew co-hosts.

So, are you surprised that the often press-shy Howarth is part of The Chew segment?  What do you think about the gang from Port Charles cooking up a storm on the series?  Will you be watching?  Let us know!

Roger has lost his mind.

i can’t wait 🙂

I will defintely be watching.

Won’t watch anything that has to do with the Spew. Not when ABC keeps developing talk shows instead of scripted programs. I won’t add my viewership/DVR ratings to their program. No matter who is on the program.

I agree with you MC!!!!!!!

ahh haa!
I’d bet they are happy campers, not..
ABC must be putting out the big dollars for that one..
ohh well they are under contract with ABC and have to give..

Roger Howarth???? Wow! When was the last time he gave an interview or spoke to the media? He’s so private and rarely gets booked anywhere.

No…maybe…yes…im not sure…probably not because i watch Days at that time and i prefer my soaps…GH is still the best…ok i might tune in during DOOLs commercial breaks…thats if i feel like it…not certain…ill wait and see!!!

Shocked about Roger but not enough to make me watch that piece of crap.

WILL NEVER WATCH THE CHEW!!! I think it’s stupid they are doing it, but in sure arrogant Valentini planned it all!!

Oh My Gosh Roger Howarth as Roger Howarth on the Chew
Yay I need to tune in!
Wish Laura Wright was there too

Love him! And love them together

I WOULDN’T MISS IT!!!
I love all these actors…and my favorite girl, Kelly Monaco!!! She’s dynamite!

This is really a great idea!! Now we can see how kitchen savvy they ALL are!! WILL BE FUN TO WATCH : ) Just love THE CHEW!!!

I don’t like The Chew. Never ever watch cooking shows. And never will! The show makes me throw-up. Not to many soap fans like & watch The Chew(silly name)..That’s my opinion..

I definitely won’t be watching. And for those of you who do, which is your privelege, you are just giving ABC daytime the ratings they can use to justify why they cancelled our other soaps. You know the saying…beware Greeks bearing gifts (Trogan Horse). And I’m sure there was a little arm twisting to get at least the boys there…they want to keep GH on and have jobs.

Eeeeep Roger Howarth is with a bunch of fun people Tyler Sean Kelly and Jason
How in the hell can I not watch this!
I need to see this for myself DVRing it
I wish Laura Wright was on too I know they would have a awesome time

Hold grudges much?

There is nothing ABC can do to make The Chew worth watching. The Chew is a cleverly disguised commercial. The Chew is trash tv.

Gee, if The Chew is “trash tv” in your book, what would you call the likes of Jerry Springer, Maury Povich, Steve Wilkos, etc?

Honestly, we need more daytime shows that are fun and feel-good positive like The Chew and much less of the raunchy, despicable, disgraceful crap that I just mentioned.

The Chew is a commercial. It is boring and contributes the obesity epidemic we have in the US. It is a total waste of time…not a feel good show . Please feel free to put in the same category as Jerry Springer.

People were fat long before the chew…i dont care for the show…but people need to take responsibility for their own actions…they need to take a good look in the mirror and see who is really responsible for making them fat…there was fat people long before tv…people today are LAZY…they depend on fast and convient quick fix meals that were never meant to be consumed often… and adults sit in front of .. we used to find things to keep us active and meals we prepared were often made from scratch and often healthier…we didnt run to some fast food joint as people do today..back when i was a kid we might have eaten out once or twice every two months as a treat but it doesnt seem that way anymore…many dont want to take the time to cook healthy but ive been seeing some change that more people are starting to…like they say ‘Guns dont kill people, people kill people’ and the same rules apply to obesity ‘Tv cooking shows and fast food joints dont make people fat, people make themselves fat’…People are responsible for their own actions especially people who get fat…if i see im at 200 pounds i have the intelligence to know im to blame for that…i dont wait til im 300 pounds and then blame a tv show for it…i know im to blame…im the one who should watch what i eat…now i agree The Chew is boring but who did you blame for the obesity epidemic b4 The Chew ever aired?

Didnt edit enough but big deal…children and adults sit around playing video games, texting or on computer too often…

Overheating is an addiction as is smoking , gambling, etc. Do you put a smoker who is trying to quit in a room full of smokers? The Chew celebrates food which is ok if it is healthy food but The Chew has very unhealthy food most of the time.

I agree with Kate. The Chew is trash. And it is VERY boring! Carla (oh no)! This show should have been put on the food network. That’s it’s proper place & where it belongs. Who in the heck wants to know how to make fish tacos, please!

The Chew has evolved into a nice show and the hosts are endearing. Soap fans need to get over the cancellations. And contrary to what most soap fans think the Chew gets great ratings with better demographics.

I completely agree. When it first came on, I was unsure of how it was gonna be. But, I gave it a chance and I ended up loving it. The hosts are fantastic. Clinton creeps me out with the crafting, lol. I don’t know why, but something about a guy doing crafts just isn’t right. But, it’s a great show. Need to get back into it.

Sorry, I never ever watch food programs. Have no interest to watch one . Never watched a cooking show . Why should I start no. Boring… Glad you like it.

It’s cool, Susan. I used to watching cooking shows all the time when I was little. I don’t watch them as much anymore though.

I’m not really thrilled about the crossover because I won’t watch that program. However, I do hope that GH gets the “heck” promoted out of it during THE CHEW, the way they incessantly promoted that show during GH’s Relish Wars storyline. GH has much bigger stars and they deserve to be promoted big-time; not treated like the proverbial red-headed step-child of the network.

Roger Howarth on The Chew ! ? I will believe it when I see it. The only thing that makes sense is that RH may be one of the celebrity buddies of Battalli and MB does a lot of charity work around NYC to help feed people. If not RH must have lost some kind of bet.

I wasn’t planning on watching… until you said “roger howarth”!! I’ll be recording it for sure! He is a hoot!

I won’t watch. Clinton Kelly called soap fans, including me, moron and turds on his Facebook page. GH is the only show on ABC I watch. Sorry Michael I know you don’t like people posting that. P.S. the only reason the Spew’s ratings are up is because it runs into GH’s 2pm time slot.

Linda you are so right. When I watch the dvr I always get a few actual minutes of the chew just before GH .No I will not watch. Clinto should look in the mirror .The morons are the ones who allow him to make complete fools of them on his CANCELLEd show what not to wear !

I am going to watch because of Kelly Monaco!!!!!!!

But where is Michael Easton.???????

Looking forward to watching!!!!

I will not be watching The Chew on 10/24.. I don’t care who appears on it.. I don’t watch cooking shows. Never watched one in my life , why should I start now. Had no interest in those kind of programs ever…

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

Published

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.

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

Published

By

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.
