General Hospital
Nikolas and Hayden Hit The Sheets This Week On General Hospital!
Courtesy/ABC
In On-Air On-Soaps recent interview with General Hospital’s Tyler Christopher (Nikolas) he alluded to the fact that there will be another woman most likely entering Nikolas’ orbit, but it wouldn’t be the all in encompassing love kind! Enter Hayden (Rebecca Budig)!
The duplicitous woman in need of moolah may have her match made in heaven with Prince Nikolas Cassadine! In this week’s promo from ABC, looks like Nik and Hayden have a steamy encoutner Is Nikolas going to use this woman to help keep the secret that he know .. that Jake (Billy Miller) is really Jason Morgan?
What do you think of a Nikolas and Hayden sexcapade? Do you think these two could ultimately fall in love, or just use each other for monetary gain, keeping the Jason secret and for some hot sex?
Watch the promo below and then share your thoughts in the comment section below!
Prepared to be stunned this week on #GH
Posted by General Hospital on Sunday, April 5, 2015
She said she has needs! Ric’s loss. I would pick her over Liz ANYDAY. I didnt know Rebecca from her other soaps. She is a handful and I like that! She has been on two weeks and has made more of an impression than Michelle Stafford! Sorry Michelle, love you!
Ugh, no.
Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaawwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn…
James…my thoughts exactly, Brother!!!!! Absolute and total Y-A-W-N all the way!!!!!
Peace, Brother!!!!!
Hayden begged Ric to sleep with her after Jake turned his back on her in bed.
She tells Ric that she has needs and has a healthy sexual appetite.
Um…..I do not mean to be vulgar but aren’t there battery operated gadgets which could help Hayden scratch that itch?
Lol harry! I dont like this character at all. Wasnt a fan of hers on amc either.
Ive grown tired of predictable bedhopping just for instant gratification or to get info out of someone…so will Hayden get preggars next and claim the baby is Jakes…will Hayden blackmail Nik…PREDICTABLE…and Spenser stealing a ring from his fathers safe to give to Emma so itll end up at the Drake house for Sam to find it…PREDICTABLE…i hope Spenser with that mask wont turn into ‘The Little Phantom Of The Soap Opera’ who plans to make Emma an opera singer for the nurses ball…lol…Danny runs to Jake—Jake had brain surgery—Jake has memories of Sam—Spin calls Jake STONE COLD—no one looking for a missing person but Jason is missing since no body recovered—why no one puts that all together???—now was that really Patricia Spenser or will she be another lookalike?—we already had Luke as Fluke so maybe Patricia could be Fatricia…lol
and i still see Valerie and Dante…goodby Lante and hello Vante…lol
I agree. they looked hot together! Valerie could basically be paired with any of the men on the show!
VANTE are meant for each other….boy, I really was not impressed by Valerie’s washed-out acting today. ….so forcefully forced. I hope she claims the character and exploits it to the limit. I do like her, but her story needs to be so authentic and riveting, that my head will spin . At the same time, a story that we can all relate to….what was her life like growing up; her education; her family life ; did her mother talk about her childhood?; her siblings?; where is her father? Etc.
Will SUPERninny(or nanny) Santiago step in, figure Mikey was drugged and save sappy Mikey’s arse…lol
@jimh….Oh, it’s “ninny,” indeed! How much more inconsequential can this vacant shell of a character become? I am so Sappy-ed out, it’s not even funny anymore! Just seeing that lunatic nurse holding and pushing Avery around in her stroller makes me see red! That baby is such a precious little angel and she has two completely idiotic, ineffectual human beings looking after her….by comparison, Sonny seems like “Superdaddy!” I am so hoping this sophomoric storyline is soon tied up….how much more stupidity must we be subjected to with these subpar players and plot? P.S. By the way, did you see my “Phantom” reference to Spencer on the previous post, or was it simply a matter of great minds thinking alike????? Lol…..
C’mon..
way too many were bellyaching how they wanted love in the afternoon stuff..
well, love in soaps is also hot sex lol .. gotta admire that aspect..
GH has a lot of couples evolving ..
I’m not big fan couples with the exception of ”Tad the Cad” and his love adventures / told to me by my neighbor/ he had it going!!
Suoo, I forgive you for all of your trespasses for mentioning Tad the Cad.
That actually cheered me up.
Thank you.
Evolving into what, Su? Lol. Super sex-fiends? It’s not real! Actually, many of them are digressing into Neanderthals….just kidding, su.
I know all about ‘Tad, the Cad’. In the end? He was left with a bitter taste in his mouth. He too, had had father issues and as weird as they come, mother. Soooooo, you must love to watch those wallowing in dysfunction, yes? ‘Gotta’ love you, Girl. I really love, love, love reading your posts. What extravaganza ….you fill my plate with it…..later.
Lol, jimh. Oh, that ring under Patrick’s sofa is so glaringly obvious, it’s blinding. I am enjoying these little hints here and there, though. …not much thought behind these scenes, but, at least, no more Fluke? Right? RIGHT?….LOL.
Please… NO MORE BABY STORY LINES!
Awwwww, Iakovos…..just when I was going to tell so many cute stories about my own baby-girl…Lol.
I love baby storylines. But, they have to be happy and healthy babies. No deaths, no fighting over custody, parents getting along….just joy all around. Not soap-worthy? Lol. We need fodder, right?
So, I agree, in that respect, babies should be kept out of soaps. Something tragic always happes to or around them. Sad!!
By the by, Iakovos? Pardon my curiosity…..Does your name translate to Jacob? I am a linguist, a history buff, English Lit. buff, and I love deciphering the derivation of names.
I should have been more clear, CeeCee. I am just tired of stolen embryos (ripped from the womb!?!?!), doubted paternity, and switches on stormy nights. Y&R seems to do OK allowing Cane and Lily’s twins to grow normally, although they botched Kyle with the SORAS. Seems in recent years the ideas of romance, marriage, and parenting are not taken as seriously in storytelling. Too easy, too quick, no shame or no fear. All done for convenience more than good plotting.
Iakovos is Greek for Jacob. I am a James and That name is akin to Jacob. All part of my Greek heritage of which I am proud.
And so you should be proud of your heritage, Iakovos. The Greeks and Romans transformed the world ….whether it be architecture, inventions, or philosophy etc.
I know that Giacomo ( very similar to Iakovos) is Italian for James. So, I suspected your name translated to Jacob/James.
You are right, of course. I am not sure if you watch Days, but Kristen did exactly that….ripped Theresa’s baby out of her womb and had it implanted in her own. Yes, it is very disturbing….in the world we live in…not so far-fetched.
Actually, something similar was done on AMC. Erica’s embryo was taken from her womb, supposedly decades ago. So, Days and GH are not the first. It is sickening, I agree.
Believe me, my grandmother paints such a beauteous picture …all the days of yore, where soaps were simple and relatable. She makes long for yesteryear…..a period that is decades before my time. She’s an enthralling storyteller.
And, when I ask her about the revolutionary 60’s? She says, those were the best years of her life….LOL. SHOCKING!!!! LOL.
What a mess, Nicolas doesn’t even act interested in Elizabeth anymore, RC writing is so inconsistent, I think nikolas is loss, he’s got a bratty son who goes around calling a family friend a towny, how insulting, it is not cute, and then he’s trying to take over ELQ, and now he’s sleeping with Hayden, ok I’m ok with that but still,Nicolas needs a good women. He’s going to pay when Sam and liz find out he knew bout jake/Jason..
You know, I hope Nikolas is able to bring about the good side in Hayden. She isn’t an evil person, she’s just blinded by the idea of a handsome paycheck at the end of her task. Money drives people to do crazy things, and even when this is all said and done, Hayden can be redeemed. If people like Franco, Nina, Sonny and even Jason are walking around freely, there’s no reason why Hayden should be condemned.
yaaaah!
It’s about time that Nik gets some!
and– for the 1st time ever with a woman who won’t be a mammypammy and I’ll get to see Nik’s wild side!
Hayden=trouble! .. I like it!
Wow, Liz is going to hate Ric for bringing this woman to PC. Especially now that she’s hooked up with Nikolas!! What a tangled web………
richard..
A ”tangled web” is ”good stuff” ask CeeCee, and I totally agree!!
stuff is inevitably gonna hit the fan! lots of excitement coming!
I’m luvin the hot dual !
You’re right, Su. Wow!!!!!!!! Nik and Hayden were hot….not that we saw much…but, the implication was loud and clear…good stuff…you bet, girl.
Of course this was already a fait-accompli, as far as I’m concerned. Here they are; partners in crime, per se. Who ‘woulda thunk’?….. So obvious and amateurish. Not surprised at all.
Nonetheless. I will love Nik and Hayden as a couple…she the sultry, deceitful coquette; he, the dashing ( not-so-sure-yet ), devious prince. I will certainly be attracted to this storyline. They will join forces, knowing Jake’s secret , but will keep it hush-hush, as the love for each other blossoms.
It will definitely be interesting to see where this shared venture will take them…..good stuff.
Yes, CeeCee! ”good stuff” !
Nik is handsome geerrr wealthy and young he needs to have a great love/sex adventure and not be tied down with a dull dull and more dull mother Elizabeth..
I knew Hayden and Nik would be joined, it will be ”good stuff” ! 🙂
lots to come from the pairing, for sure!!
Why would Nik keep Jake/Jason a secret if he isnt decietful…does Nik want ELQ and why…he is a wealthy prince so he doesnt need to steal someone elses company…he has never acted power hungry…does he want Liz…he might still get her if he told the truth…after all Jake is Sams husband…Nik was so outrage that Britt was keeping secrets but its ok for him…Pot meet Kettle!!!
Exactly, jimh. Too many whys, where Nik is concerned. By all of your accounts and other posters, I am to assume that Nik is acting out of character. I am still willing to give him the benefit of the doubt for that reason. He is working with Sloane for the greater good. Perhaps his wanting ELQ is a front for something more….whatever it may be. Otherwise, everyone has been fooled by Nik’s double facade all this time? Is that possible?
I also agree with you about bed-hopping, especially having just met. Then again, that’s
something personal. I would have to be in love with whomever I get intimate.
Thus, perhaps, they are using each other….or, they are so ferociously and sexually attracted to each other, they can’t help themselves? As I said, I like these two together…if not Britt, then a Hayden-type-woman, as the Mythological siren, Lorelei, will do. I really think they will be hot as a couple….very exciting. I usually FF ‘love’ scenes, but, I think I shall watch this one….I am intrigued. Lordy, Lord….I am so glad it isn’t Cameron Mathison with whom Rebecca is wresting in the sheets. Ugh!!
jimh..
Helena said the Cassadines lost a lot of their fortune..
They need ELQ ..
Nichols has the Cassadine DNA.. he can be the good bad guy ..
I feel a Cassadine Quartermain power play would be very intriguing=DYNAMITE!
I like Nik now, he is becoming interesting.. hot sexy and Cassidiny! (finally ….
Nik and Elizabeth were horribly dull..
Mother Elizabeth is not a good character to be paired with too lackluster lol
Hayden and Nik <—-''good stuff'' !!
I feel Hayden and Ric had better chemistry but ill wait and see how this work outs…Hayden is somewhat Britt-ish—maybe Nik misses Britt and sees her in Hayden???
I must add….what a cute baby !! OMG,……don’t you just want to squeeze those cheeks? And, her eyes are so lucid and observant.
So true, CeeCee….She’s probably thinking why am I stuck in the care of these two utter, complete morons who spend more time in this bar rather than luxuriating in my beautiful, plush nursery that my mafia don daddy and his skankgster ex-wife put together for me at his house? Say what you will, but that little girl was well-looked after at Chez Corinthos, and was probably in the best possible place until Ava, Silas or even Delia could arrange a permanent situation for her. I just hope this custody nonsense is over soon….it’s excruciating to watch the antics of those halfwits Mikey, Sappy, Kiki and Morgan….none has the right stuff to be in charge of an infant!
p.s. : thanks JimH for remembering Britta
every one else in Port Charles (LOL) got a ticket out of jail
course, i’m still vigilante for Ava
and i’m still on the fence with : will it be Silas or Sonny who cares for lady/tigeress Ava
I agree with U CeeCee, that is the Cutest and sweetest baby.
Now let’s talk the PROMO with Michael, he loses it !!! In more
ways than one, we all know he will not retain custody of Avery,
his Crazy out of control behavior will take care of that matter.
Thanks in part to Morgan & KiKi’s “MESSING with him”.
I dare say ( hoping U don’t all HATE on me 4 saying this ) Michael has
brought a lot of this on himself… Too be tabled 4 now, & picked apart later on.
BLOW # 2 he’ll most probably lose ELQ to the BIG BOYS, Nik is leader of
the pack.
That’s where the show picks up momentum again,the ins and outs, dips
& turns of soap OPERA drama.
Fanny…Michael didn’t bring anything upon himself. People pulled crap on him…and he reacted. I believe his motivation for wanting Avery/AJ was twofold…both to protect her from Sonny’s gangsta life…he himself victimized over and over because odpf it..and to pay back every wrong committed by Sonny to his bio dad, AJ.
Sabrina did not take the baby to some seedy bar,,,the metro court is an upscale hotel, restaurant…and Michael had no intention of getting drunk. He was doing a business lunch, as an adult, having a drink…and he was not currently taking care of the baby. He got out of control only because he was drugged by Morgan and Kiki…I see, unfortunately, history repeating itself if he becomes victimized like AJ Q was.
Sabrina is great in her current position. Loyal, caring, protective over the baby and Michael’s voice of reason.
@Shay.
Hi Shay.
On the contrary, no one in his/her right mind would disagree with you. I would have been very happy if Kiki had fought for custody and won. But, not this flighty Kiki. It should have been a Kiki en par with Kristen…mature and with her head screwed on right.
However, Avery does not belong with Sonny, albeit he is her father…biology means nothing in this case. He is not worthy.
Michael winning custody was dumb from the get-go. Again, the writers ‘screwed up’, in my opinion. And yes, he succumbed to his rage and angst and lost control.
I despise Kiki and Morgan for doing this. It is wrong and vicious.
Furthermore I hate the idea of pitting brother against brother…..as I have said in the past. Enough of Cain and Abel. Be original, stop emulating the Bible.. I guess all roads lead to Rome AND the Bible….LOL. Later, girl.
Well, CeeCee, sadly, for that sweet little girl, she lost the parent sweepstakes on both counts. Despite Ava’s fierce lioness instincts and noble selflessness which emerged during her pregnancy and subsequent ill-timed delivery, she is not a fit mother in the strictest sense of the word, either. Sonny and she are two sides of the same Cosa Nostra coin….so what to do, what to do? Allow nurture over nature to prevail, and deny both blood parents their own offspring? I concur “old Kiki” was a suitable (temporary) choice for custody of Avery, particularly with Silas in her corner to oversee things….it worked. But this nuKiki creature is another game altogether….she’s a complete nightmare and it’s rubbing off on Morgan, as well. Having said that, I did enjoy their little takedown game today, because something must be done to get that cute dumpling out of the hands of Mikey and his nutter nanny….I simply cannot abide watching those two self-righteous idiots parading around that child who has been reduced to nothing more than a pawn in the Quartermaine heir’s sick thirst for revenge. Just another key example of a really badly executed and ridiculous storyline (with Sappy featured again, no less…..)……wonder how the show runners will worm their way out of this one? More musical paternity revisionism? Only time will tell, but I hope for yet another reversal of this failed custody course, and soon!
@Shay.
I do agree to a certain extent, Shay. That is, Avery (do not like to call her AJ) ought not to be with either of her parents. One could argue that Kiki turned out fine being reared by Ava……yes, oldKiki….sadly the Jerome imprint is manifesting itself in the present Kiki, albeit I noticed a tell-tale of compassion for Michael yesterday; and, possibly regret.
I know you hold a great antipathy for Sabrina ( and Nina), but she is a good person. Her heart is in the right place ….she would never hurt the baby. She had a breakdown….very common , not only after giving birth(post partum depression), but also after losing a child. This is fiction, of course, but I do adhere to the fact that fiction, is based on reality.
I never tried hurting anyone or go into much of a depression or ‘lose’ it ( I have a very strong will and healthy mind and body), but when I lost my boy, I went to hell and back.
So, I have forgiven Sabrina for that momentary ‘out-of-touch’ with reality.
Moreover, Sabrina is exactly what Michael needs right now. She is his guide when he can’t see….she will keep him grounded. I would rather see Sabrina take care of the baby than this Kiki turned criminal; especially because her mother hated Sonny, and Kiki knows it. Kiki and Morgan, at this point are going down the same path of destruction and a life of crime, as their parents…Ava and Sonny.
Yes, Michael is not squeaky clean by any means. What he did was underhanded. However, Morgan paying the waitress to spike his brother’s drink with Kiki as an accomplice is far worse. When everything comes to light, even Sonny will be raging mad with Morgan……which brings me to this conclusion. It all stems from The Great Sonny…..the Don Corleone ‘wanna’ be!!
@Patrick.
Hey, Patrick….I haven’t forgotten Britt either; not by a longshot!
“she” is surprising me… how much her “presence” is melding
and if this is gangbusters… of ole
then Tyler Christoper, needs this
his acting is superlative
think what one will : of, “Fluke” : “Jake Doe” : Franco N’ Nina” (and I love my Franco) : and where (?) is my Ava; and how will she fare ?
it’s a lot of acting that highlights all this GH
I couldn’t be happier that Nikolas is reeling
LOL… he is acting top drawer
Let the Cassadine stud muffin his being, whet the senses
this lot is pushing to the top of some pie
Kudos to some Tyler Christopher/Nikolas
@Patrick….Count me in as another Britt fan who terribly misses her presence….GH really has not been the same without her! I do especially pine for those Drs. Obrecht-Westbourne mother-daughter scenes!
Maybe Nik is still a good guy…maybe he is trying to protect Jakeson and ELQ from Hellena???
Yeah, Jimh. That’s what I’ve been saying. It could all be a put-on by Nik and Sloane. Perhaps they are trying to deflect something bigger than we know or think. Worth the wait.
Don’t think so, jimh…I still think Nic, at his core, is good..but he’s definitely keeping Jason’s identity a secret for selfish reasons…to steal ELQ. Pretty difficult to fathom he’d keep such life altering information to himself, and the fallout will be huge.
When is Jason going to be exposed?????? Oh no not Liz and Rick again
I do not care if Jason comes back..
I love Jake!!
I like Jake much better than Jason, actually..
Billy Miller is now Jake, I like that..
When he realises he is Jason, ehh I still like Jake !
He certainly seems to have more personality than old Jason…he even smiles. And I think Steve B is finally settling into a decent storyline on Y&R.
su0000, I like your take on Jake vs Jason! I think most fans would agree… 🙂
I agree with you , Su. But, it is vital for Jake to remember who he is. Too many doors are left open….anyone could walk in and out at his expense…..as we have already seen by Rick’s and Hayden’s behavior.
Let’s just hope that when he comes out of his ‘stupor’, Jake will emerge as Jason Q. Later.
I like seeing the “bad boy” side of Nikolas, like him conspiring with Sloane and Mayor Lomax to rig the election, and his plot to overtake ELQ, and when he put Helena in her place, and now hopping in the sack with this gold digger. He is a Cassadine after all, good to see him acting like it, lol! Goody two shoes Nikolas gets boring after a while.
Yes!
I love Nik as a real Cassadine, too
It looks like Nik is having a turn to a bad boy .. WOOPPPIE!!
Nik and Hayden are about to bring some excitement!!
they will be a helluva pair, for sure!
I have mixed feelings about Nicolas turning “Cassadines”. He’s done so sine Britt’s last betrayal…too much loss for him. Instead of Luke/Fluke we now have Nivk/Prick! c’mon…keeping Sam in the dark about her husband? It is bad enough in and of itself….but to Sam? Who has been consistently good to him….Sam, daughter of Alexis, his closest, dearest Cassadine? And all to take over ELQ…steal from the love of his life’s family.
This is why it’s so ludicrous for all these characters to judge each other. I’m sure Nic will judge Rick to be a manipulative arse when he finds out he’s behind it….yet what he’s doing is actually worse.
Mixed feelings because the show needs balance. I’d rather they have gotten Nic involved in a Luke Laura type escapade than have him deceive people he loves….but then again he did have a relationship with Liz, betraying Lucky.
Don’t like Hayden. I see nothing appealing about her in any way. But I understand two people with a stake in keeping Jake in the dark could pair up. Have no idea how Nicolas will redeem himself when this is all over…although when he tries that might be another opportunity to bring back Laura. He’ll need her influence….
Rebecca1…agree with your comments about Michael not bringing his current predicament on all by himself. And I’m really not liking how Morgan and Kiki are setting him up. To help along someone with possible alcoholic tendencies is evil. I also like Sabrina, always have. Maybe she’s not or flashy as the other’s in her demo, but she seems more solid, loyal, kind, studied hard to become a nurse, and actually held down a job. More than I can say for some of the others. And she seems okay as a nanny for AJ and confidante for Michael. As the story progresses I hope everyone will chill and have some access to AJ.
Hi Rose…ya, I’m glad they’re keeping Sabrina. She really is such a solid, grounded character…truly a good heart. I think she looks great…less eye makeup, back in shape…and she has a calming presence. I actually think she’d be a great match for Michael. He needs a good, honest person in his corner.
As for baby AJ, I don’t see the battle over her ending any time soon. If Michael ever finds out Morgan drugged him, their brotherly love will be a distant memory. I truly want Michael to remain a Q, but I do fear they’re trying to duplicate history when Carly sabotaged AJ so he’d lose the fight to gain access to Michael. And then there’s Ava…can’t count her out yet…
As it is said, Dan….we all have a dark side. I like Hayden and Nik as a couple. But, I bet, as conspiring as they seem, they will both fall pray to that ‘little thing called love’, for each other.
Furthermore, I am yet to be convinced that Nik is on the other side of the law.
When the PTB figure it out, they will tell us. What do you think? You usually are en par with jimh, in that you are pretty good with predictions.
However, in the meantime, I agree with you….I am very interested to see some of the Cassadine DNA make a tiny, little appearance within Nik’s persona….yet, he must then revert to his ‘good’ self.
I also would like for Hayden to give up her wayward ways for love (Nik). LOL. Yes?
LOVE THEM!!!!’ Brit who? Emily what???
I hope for once someone on GH is using birth control! I’m not a big Rebecca Budig fan, sorry. I kind of wish Ric would have been on the up and up this time.
Right? I don’t think anyone on any soap are aware that there is birth-control available out there…LOL.
Well, Lin, as you well know, leopards do not change their spots.
Surprising for a soap. I would have thought that TPTB would have changed Rick’s spots for Liz’s sake. I am assuming that Rick will soon be on his way out. But, not before he gets tangled in his own proverbial web.
The plot begs for conflict……more than a love-triangle this !!!! There are so many people with a stake in this storyline…let’s not forget Sam, who should be the first to know….Nik better have a valid reason for not disclosing Jake’s true identity. This man has a child, for goodness sake. And, Nik is a father himself; very selfish and unconscionable, indeed!!
P.S. We have not seen the Jake imposter lately. I doubt very much he will forget to collect more of the blackmail money. Also, when all Rick’s schemes come to a halt, what will happen to Hayden. The actress/character has not been well received by many. Personally, I hope there will be a loophole somehow, and, she will stay.
Correction…first sentence in the post before should read……”I don’t think anyone on any soap IS aware…”, NOT ‘are’….
As if all this Luke retconning were not distasteful enough, now we have more terrible newbies (Valerie and Hayden) and deplorable storylines to endure….this whole fake Jake wife business and now Nik romance is an utter waste of time, and so is the custody nonsense with Avery. Just explain what the heck happened with all the gaping holes in the Luke Spencer saga, move on with Jason’s rediscovery of his true identity, reveal Ava’s fate so her child can find a suitable home and cut out all the extraneous filler nonsense. It’s so mind numbingly dumb and boring that it’s insulting. And please, let Liz wake up and smell the coffee regarding Ric once and for all….she needs to send that reptile on his way….permanently!
You know, Shay….I love Liz, she is one of my faves on GH. But, I do not understand this character. Did she ever stick to her guns? Why does she need to have a man, right now, in her life? I would just take a breath…going from one guy to the other….how does one’s heart become so fickle? So volatile? I’d be in a tizzy, Lizzy.
Rick is scuzzy, but good-looking…..I wonder why he looks so red? His hair? His face?
All he needs is a Dali mustache and/or horns to complete the picture of evil.
I have given up expecting any kind of explanation or delving into the wild and crazy world of Fluke/Luke. None will be forthcoming because the storyline had no rhyme or reason. TPTB cannot explain it, and they know it. I am just happy the merry-go-round is over. Let’s move on, yes? LOL.
So, for anyone to say the story made perfect sense; a story which led to the ultimate episode (which, I repeat, was worth watching) of Luke remembering, must have been watching something completely different from me. I must be outnumbered.
Outnumbered? Perhaps, CeeCee….but at least you are in fine company with those of us who remain as skeptical as yourself on the so-called Luke “reveal.” Even with TG’s considerable talents, this tawdry tale is truly headed nowhere, and the addition of the ill-cast newbie playing the angry and aggressive Valerie isn’t helping matters at all. Today’s episode was just more blah, blah, blah….it’s as if the show runners want to keep rubbing their selective sleight of hand storytelling in our faces. I’m pretty much done hoping for otherwise. Time to move on, indeed…..As for Liz, I totally agree that she needn’t constantly be defined by a man, yet her character is written as compelled to do just that, whether the beau in question is one worthy of her attentions…or not. It is tedious, and especially so where Ric is concerned…he is a complete snake and nothing will ever change that. I also see him as rather demonic in appearance…..nothing terribly attractive there from my perspective, just more of the same old, same old …cannot wait for him to leave. (I liked him much better dead…LOL.) Hence, until Jake is “freed up” from that “faux sa femme,” Nurse Webber should cool her misdirected ardor, curl up and read a good book.
Looks like i was right about Superninny figuring out about Micheals pills and will save the day……and i need Freakostein and Ninannoy to go…Freako laughing over the baby carriage mishap was disgusting—at least Ninannoy told him that wasnt a laughing matter but these two are just waste-of-time filler characters who dont even feel like they are part of the show—i liked RH but not as Freakostein and i never liked the overated MS—someone please put her back in a coma!!!
@jimh…..Cannot disagree with you, particularly about Ninannoy…great moniker! Just please tell me she isn’t going to traipse off with that sweet little angel…again! It’s making me crazy how all of these so-called adults are playing “musical baby” with Avery. In the end, Silas and Delia need to have some sort of care arrangement for her, because they are the only responsible, mature people in this whole scenario…..and who woulda ever thunk that Mrs. Coleridge would be described as such? Just goes to show how bad the other parental/guardian choices are in this custodial mess! As for “Phyllina.” yes, she needs to go back to her comatose state….it’s the only manner in which to ever make her bearable! P.S. We certainly do think alike in a lot of ways….as with the “mini-Phantom” Spencer! As soon as I saw him that “Music of the Night” idea popped into my head…..boy, do I hope Dr. O. is part of that spectacular! She would be magnificent!
This is similar to what happened on DAYS with Melissa Archer; love the actress, hate the story. MA was wasted on DAYS with a bad and dull story, and now she’s leaving the show. Rebecca Budig is a great actress and I think she plays feisty very well. But the story was very predictable from the minute she claimed to be Jake’s wife, and it hasn’t gotten much better. It’s not as bad as the elephant statue nonsense on DAYS, but it isn’t great by any means.
I hope that whatever the outcome of this story is, Hayden stays in town because I really do like Rebecca and there is tons of potential for her character. For example, I love the idea of pairing her with Nikolas. Right when news broke that RB was hired, I knew she’d be paired with Nik. And yes, even though Hayden is not exactly a saint, that doesn’t matter. If other bad guys and gals can be redeemed (yes, I’m looking at you, Sonny) so can Hayden.
Jimmy..
I do not like any character being ”redeemed”
when they turn goodgie they become boring, so much less than what they were. they lose their excitement and therefore they are not written for as much as they once were..
I do not mind a mellowing out but never redemption, that kills an intriguing character..
not many turn into a soap to watch Mother Teresa and her band of angels..
most like the intriguing bad guys, the characters that are bad with a hidden side of goodie.. they have two sides to them, but never redeem them unless they are done being written for and used as wallpaper/just there ….
I agree, I don’t like characters becoming saints either when they started off as baddies. By redeem, I mean in the sense that even though the character has done bad things, there is still that hint of good in them and they aren’t truly evil. Characters like Helena, Stavros, Faison, etc. will never be redeemed, but characters like Hayden who aren’t evil still can be bad, but have that hint of good that makes you root for them still.
don’t like her character and gees, where did the Nik we loved so much go?! I keep wondering if his dear old granny has screwed with his mind too…. burning votes, keeping friends and relatives in the dark about Jason, which why is that a thing anyways. Why keep that a secret anymore? They all know Jake was brainwashed by Helena, they all know that Robin is alive and left to help Jason and Helena, so what is the big deal in keeping who he really is a secret?
anyways, this gal and Nik. ewwwww! it’s like he’s sleeping with a younger version of Helena. Yuk!
Hi Christy.
I don’t think Hayden can be compared to Helena. Admittedly, Hayden is a double-crosser; a gold-digger, but Helena is satanic….people die by her hand or by her orders.
I hope ,to high heaven , Hayden is not so methodically diabolical.
I do agree with you about Nik keeping life-and-death information about Jake, though. What he is doing is potentially very dangerous.
I’m loving it! Love Hayden. Love Rebecca Budig. I’ve missed her on my T.V. I’m in!!!
Anyone notice that Nikolas/Tyler performs the same way during sex scenes. It’s the exact same scene just insert different actress.

GENERAL HOSPITAL: Chase Proposes to Brook Lynn; Kristina and Blaze Share a Kiss
Finally, many GH viewers got their wish, when on the Monday, December 4th episode of the ABC daytime drama series, Chase (Josh Swickard) got down on one knee (a few times) and proposed to Brook Lynn (Amanda Setton).
At first, Brook Lynn balked at his attempt as she believed Gloria (Ellen Travolta) and Lois (Rena Sofer) were pressuring him to do so. When she tells Chase marriage is off the table he pulls out an engagement ring. Chase reveals he was planning on proposing at Christmas, so he had the ring ready to go. A romantic Chase shares that he doesn’t want to waste one more day as he clearly knows what matters now … her! With that, Chase gets back down on his knees and proposes again, and this time Brook Lynn says, “yes!” The two seal the deal with a kiss!
Molly (Kristen Vaganos) breaks the news to TJ (Tajh Bellow), that she now wants to accept her sister, Kristina’s (Kate Mansi) offer to be their surrogate, after all the failures they have been through in trying to find a candidate that will stick. While TJ voices his concerns, he eventually comes around and tells Molly, “Let’s have a baby,” and now seems excited about the prospect of Kristina being the answer to their prayers. They seal the deal with a kiss!

Kristina and Blaze (Jacqueline Grace Lopez) get together with a bottle of champagne, since Blaze’s latest song just hit number one on the charts. During their conversation, Kristina asks what is Blaze’s real name? She reveals it’s “Alison”.

Later, Kristina opens up about her past and her abusive relationship with Keifer, her short marriage to Trey and then how she went away to college and fell for her professor Parker Forsythe (formerly Ashley Jones). She then reveals Parker went back to her ex. However, Kristina’s takeaway was she realized she was clearly into women. That leaves the moment open for Blaze to make a move on Kristina and the two share a kiss.

So, three kisses moved the stories forward on this episode of GH. Which are you most happy about? Chase and Brook Lynn getting engaged? GH moving forward with a same-sex romance for Kristina and Blaze, or TJ and Molly coming together to agree to let Kristina be their surrogate? Three kisses, three different stories.

Daytime Emmy Lead Actress Nominee Luncheon; The Tradition Continues
On Sunday, it was Mishael Morgan’s (Amanda Sinclair, The Young and the Restless) turn to host the annual Lead Actress nominee luncheon, for this year’s talented woman who are going for gold at the upcoming 50th annual Daytime Emmy Awards on Friday night, December 15th on CBS.
Morgan took home the Daytime Emmy in this category in 2022 becoming the first Black actress in the now 50-year history to ever win it. In a tradition that was started by four-time Daytime Emmy winner Susan Flannery (Ex-Stephanie, The Bold and the Beautiful), the winning actress from the previous year has to pick up the tab, choose a restaurant and host a fun afternoon gathering for this year’s crop of nominees.
Attending the festivities were 2023 Lead Actress nominees: Melissa Claire Egan (Chelsea, The Young and the Restless), Michelle Stafford (Phyllis, The Young and the Restless), Sharon Case (Sharon, The Young and the Restless) Finola Hughes (Anna, General Hospital), and Jacqueline MacInnes Wood (Steffy, The Bold and the Beautiful).

Mishael (Last years winner) put together a brunch that was BEYOND spectacular with gift bags even!! I mean Mishael, you are an absolute class act. Thank you for the beautiful day 🧡”
Finola Hughes posted her sentiments as well, “Yesterday was the leading ladies lunch for the Emmy’s. It’s a tradition started by the inimitable Susan Flannery. (The previous years winner throws a luncheon for the nominees). Yesterday was a very special lunch. Mishael Morgan raised the bar! The conversation was at once light hearted and deep. This was an amazing group of women, supportive, funny and caring. Thank you all for a brilliant few hours 💕 🌸 ✨”
Posting on their Instagram Stories were Michelle Stafford who gave us a little more behind the scenes of the luncheon, where Mishael also handed out a gift bag to each of the ladies, and Sharon Case who accompanied her photos with the tune “This One’s For the Girls” by Martina McBride.

General Hospital’s Jon Lindstrom Shares Heartfelt Message to Mark His 30-Year Anniversary as Dr. Kevin Collins
It’s hard to believe that it’s been 30 years since back on December 3rd, 1993, when General Hospital viewers got the shock of their lives as the ABC soap opera introduced the psychiatrist twin brother of serial killer, Ryan Chamberlain, in the form of Dr. Kevin Collins.
For soap fans that meant we got to see even more of one of the finest actors ever to appear in the genre in Jon Lindstrom. The talented actor started on GH a year and half earlier in June of 1992 as Ryan.
Fast-forward to 2023 and Lindstrom is in the running for this year’s Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Drama Series when the 50th annual Daytime Emmy Awards are given out in less than two weeks on Friday night, December 15th on CBS. Could an Emmy on his 30th year playing Kevin and Ryan be in the cards? Stay tuned.

It has been well-documented that former GH creatives Wendy Riche (ex-EP), Claire Labine (ex-head writer) and Michelle Val Jean (ex-writer) were all instrumental in keeping Jon in Port Charles with a second role as Kevin, when he could have headed to As the World Turns at the time to play the role of Damian Grimaldi, that eventually went to Paolo Seganti.
Taking to his Instagram on Sunday to acknowledge this special milestone, Jon shared via video message, “I woke up this morning to see that today December 3rd, marks 30 years since I debuted as Dr. Kevin Collins on General Hospital. I knew that it had been a long time, but 30 years since the doppelgänger to Dr. Ryan Chamberlain was introduced. It really is remarkable. It’s been a great ride, a great run. it’s like an entire career right there. I’ve enjoyed every minute of it. It’s just been great.”

Lindstrom paid tribute to those who helped create Kevin, expressing, “I have a lot of people to thank about that, let alone people like Wendy Riche and the brass at ABC at the time … Claire Labine who was writing the show back, but Michelle Val Jean was really was the one who I had the pleasure of working with to develop and bring to life Kevin Collins. She’s still a great friend today. So, there’s been a lot of blessings around this for me, and don’t think, I don’t know it. I pretty much drop to my knees every day in gratitude. Thank you world for supporting Dr. Kevin Collins and Ryan Chamberlain, for that matter. I’ll do it as long as they’ll have me.”
Accompanying his video, Jon wrote: “So grateful today for my 30 years of ‘Kevin Collins’ (and ‘Ryan Chamberlain’) on General Hospital, and for the wonderful journey my life has been, for my friends, my the family and incredible opportunities I’ve had. Hope you all have much to be grateful for.”
Share your congrats and well-wishes to Jon for 30 years as GH’s Dr. Kevin Collins via the comment section below.
