General Hospital
On General Hospital, Does Alexis Mow Down Julian? Watch The Promo!
Courtesy/ABC
Doesn’t Alexis (Nancy Lee Grahn) already have a history of getting behind a car and hitting someone? Sooo, then this Turkey Day plot turn could spell disaster for the boozing Ms. Davis!
In the latest ABC promo for General Hospital, while the Quartermaines and more gather for their annual Thanksgiving gatherings, and Lante looks to saying their “I-Do’s”, Alexis is in bad shape and Julian (William deVry) may, or may not, be her intended target!
As Alexis is behind the wheel of her car, we see Julian walking, then we we see a body flying after a car goes right for him. Alexis cries, “What have I done?” But was Alexis just watching as this all happens and not the guilty party behind the wheel … or … will it be revealed as is intended in the promo that she ran down the once man of her dreams?
Watch the promo after the jump, and let us know what you think of this latest Julexis conundrum? Comment below!
Julian? I would rather she hit Jordan, Nathan, Nina, Curtis, Andre, Griffin or Finn!
Well, I can agree with half that list, Timmmbo….and add Hayden and Alexis herself! Either have her hit a tree once she’s completed her vehicular homicidal handiwork or perhaps forget to put her car in park before she gets out of her car to inspect her “roadkill,” then, whoops…Alexis gets plowed down, too!!!!
But Shay, who would burn the cookies?
You mean the “red wine brownies!” Lol…
I would only keep 2 from UR list, and U wouldn’t be pleased
w/ my choices …Sorry. Is Alexis going fast enough to knock
some serious sense into him…doubtful. And we all know he
won’t become her next casualty, otherwise we’re looking at
Julian being her third victim. And she has the ba–s to call
Sonny and Julian unscrupulous !!!!! REALLY
Sorry, Fanny. No comparison between mob bosses and a woman with a disease…because at this point Alexis has a drinking problem…she’s not out partying.
@Rebecca, hi… Yes of course I realize Alexis is an alcoholic
and that it’s a disease. That being said… whatever happened
to the real Alexis…Smart,witty, brilliant attorney, great friend
good mother…. Julian happened and I get it, I really do….but
not with eyes wide shut !!! She chose to pretty much ignore
the ugly truth about Julian again and again…. Even when he
admitted to ordering Duke’s murder, she still married him. So
now she’s a Mobsters wife… Did she truly believe her love
would change him, make him a better man…When a man
tells you who he really is believe him. When reality finally
sets in she turns on him…he sees this as a betrayal and
momentarily snaps tries to kill her and all hell breaks loose.
She drowns her sorrow in the hope that it will help her for-
get… That it was all torn to shreds, love, career, self esteem.
But again…all the life altering decisions Alexis made were
done so before the booze became an issue.
All I can say is that NLG is bringing it home with this alcoholism story. She really plays a drunk so very well. The mornings after a bender? Well, you can see the self loathing on her face and if you have a loved one who is an alcoholic, you know that look so well.
NLG is the Meryl Streep of daytime. I just love her.
Hi again Fanny. As Jax said to Carly, ” We don’t choose who we love…” I make allowances when I watch soaps; there are things that so go against my grain that even suspending my disbelief doesn’t change how I feel. Michael returning Avery to Sonny for example. Michael forgiving Sonny without so much as a lingering conflict. But when it comes to love on GH…I kinda go with the flow if I like the two people in the couple. I love Alexis; always have. And, she’s still all the things you described…smart, witty, a brilliant attorney…she’s still a great mother and friend.
I still like Julian. There’s something about him I just am drawn to. And, I do believe he did and still does love Alexis. I’ve come up with several theories of why he attacked her. One: fantastical…Helena cursed the knife that she returned to Alexis…the same knife that she used to slit Alexis’s mother’s throat. If we are to believe that Helena truly can curse people…than that would exonerate Julian in my eyes for attacking her.
My second more realistic thought is he literally lost his mind when everything started unraveling. He killed Carlos, he felt guilt…but he did it to preserve his life with Alexis. I think when she couldn’t accept that he had lied again, had killed again, he just assumed she’d still stand by him. His love was that deep; he thought their relationship impenetrable. When she went against him by wearing the wire I think he literally snapped from hurt, shock, feelings of betrayal, realization that he was going to lose her and his family…temporary insanity! I tell myself that even though he held the knife to her throat he never would have killed her. If Sonny hadn’t stepped in this is how I want to think it would have gone down:
Julian shaking with fury, holding the knife to her throat, but repeatedly asking “why.” Why, how could you betray me. He thought she loved him..their family..how could she just throw it all away…all the while crying. And then, throwing her away from him, dropping the knife, running away..
Lol. That’s my story and I’m sticking to it. As for Alexis, her current state just cries human to me. She loved him deeply and truly believed he had changed. You don’t get over that kind of love…particularly when it all unraveled so quickly..or the shock, the brutality and betrayal she felt. Couple that with the harsh judgment she received from everyone, losing her license, her pride, her reputation, her life with her husband…makes sense to me.
People go through great times in their lives. Other times, they fall apart if the burden is too great.. Cumulative. She’ll bounce back. Eventually…
One more thing Fanny. If you recall Julian explained to Alexis how he had grown up…in a very cold environment with a mob father. He didn’t feel nurtured, he wasn’t encouraged to feel love or want family. His newfound love for her and his children gave him the incentive to change. So when he told her he would, I truly believe he meant it and so did Alexis. And then…he didn’t. Or should I say he too, fell off the wagon.
Back only to wish Micheal, You, Shay Celia and all other posters too numerous to mention a Happy Thanksgiving…it doesnt look like ill be coming back full time-its been a horrible year and its getting worse!…Sorry, i did not respond last time-been deeply depressed!!!
My dearest Jimmy….I wish you find some solace and joy, somehow.
Have faith, my friend. It will not abandon you. Easier said than done, I know it seems that way now. But, my faith, my husband, my son and family picked me up and carried me during my darkest moments.
Much love.
Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours.
Hoping to hear from you soon.
Jimh…Hoping you feel better soon. You are probably the first commenter I wanted to follow when I started on MF a few years ago. As a “story teller” in your own right you always bring humor and wit to whatever you add. So Happy Thanksgiving to you, and look forward to reading more from you about our imaginary alter universes.
Jim, you are a staple here at Michael Fairman. I hope and pray you have a family member or a church that you can turn to. I dont know what you are going through but remember this, you are a snowflake, we all are, without each of us, there would be no snowman to build, no snowball to throw or not enough snow to ski, hang in there, we need you, EVERYONE counts! Happy Thanksgiving buddy.
Oh, Jim, so sorry to read of your troubles. You’ve given us all so much joy and food for thought with your posts. I know cliches don’t really help, so let me just say that there are people who care, even if we’re only online. That, along with my faith and my books and music and the great acting on our shows, always encourage me to see the good sides of life, even in terrible darkness. My prayers will be with you and remember we need you.
Best wishes jimh…try to have a Happy Thanksgiving and “see you” when you feel ready to come back!
@jimh….Thank you, my friend! Sending thoughts and prayers for brighter days ahead.. We all have our moments when we feel the need to “step away” from the MF Soap threads, but please don’t allow it to become a habit. Your comments “make our day,” and it’s never the same when those always-anticipated remarks fail to appear, At the very least, promise to keep in touch to let us know you’re hanging in there and still lurking “here” amongst the many regulars who call this website “home!” Take care and best wishes for a most blessed Thanksgiving and holiday season.
I would rather it was a GH/DAYS crossover and she hit loud mouth smart butt kate..THIS ISN’T A TWO FOR ONE SALE MAKE UP YOUR DAMNED MIND ADRIENNE…BWAHAHA..when they finally leave the church Alexis should be drunk driving through Salem after a stop off at TBD and runs that cow over.
What beautiful sentiments, Timmm…and so true! Wishing you, as well as the rest of the good people we’ve come to know here at MFSoaps, a Happy Thanksgiving
Thank you Shay. Also, a belated Happy Thanksgiving to all. Hope everyone survived Black Friday! Back in the saddle, Cyber Monday! Spinelli must get some awesome deals!
Lordie, I hope so! If he suddenly died or had to leave town for medical care, I’d root for that.
If it’s Julian, back up Alexis and make sure the job is done!
Thats funny! Sonny under the front tires and Julian under the back tires!
Save one tire for Franco
All I know is that the Quartermaines better have to call out for pizza on Thanksgiving—the highlight of the GH thanksgiving episodes is always when the Q’s are SOCLOSE to having the traditional turkey when something goes wrong at the last second and they have to phone out for pizza. I do love that running gag!!!
I agree totally, back up the car and go home and eat some turkey, you just killed one.
Maybe Alexis runs over the pizza delivery guy– Happy Thanksgiving everyone
Why didn’t Sonny hire Alexis to take out Julian?
.
.
NO ! no no, it is NOT Julian that she hits..
But– Julian saw who her drunk hitting whomever and then he blackmails her to take him back as her husband..
J&S are are very weak writers.. can she what’s coming before they finish the script..
That’s what I had plotted out as well. Now Alexis can be even more weaker under Julian’s thumb. BLACKMAIL it’s in the air!.
hi Nina..
we have it !!
Julian will blackmail Alexis to take him back, yup..
theses drunk person hit&run’s whomever are common.. Y&R has used that one more than a couple of times..
0ooh my neighbor (here) just told me it was a favorite plot on AMC, too, she said Brook.for one.
She definitely hits Julian. He probably runs in front of the car preventing her from driving away plastered. I like that list of better targets in another post much, much better. But not Curtis. Someone’s got to rescue him from the Lets All Make Sonny the Mobster Feel Better storyline.
Natasha needs to have her driver’s license revoked.
Lol…leave Natasha alone….
Does Alexis mow down Julian? Probably not, but one can certainly hope. Lord knows he deserves it. Love Nancy Lee Grahn, she’s been knocking it out of the park not only recently but this entire year.
Can we please get some skid marks on Kiki’s back? THAT would be wondrous!
This sweeps period has got to be the dullest on record for General Hospital. One wonders what we’d be watching if Bryan Craig hadn’t opted to leave the show. These stories…save for Anna, Valentin and company…are a snooze-fest!
Will Nick Stabile ever be returning as Nikolas? This is way overdue. Bring him back, Mr. Valentini!
I wish it was Ava and Julian that she hit, maybe now,she will stop hitting the bottle. Not a good look for her.. Diane should be married to Sonny. She gets him..
Looks to me like she hit Nathan, Julian witnesses it and will try to help her cover up. She wants her license to practice back at beginning of the year so she will go with the cover up. Plus she doesn’t want her girls to know she’s been drinking…
Hey, maybe she hits Nathan and he wakes up from a coma and he can act!
See? That’s funny! Timmmy and his dry humor. Love it!!
Why did you let Carly an sonny get married
Again only to put Carly back with Jax.
Alexis is a weak wanna be who doesn’t really
Have a part in the show except for being
A wineo maybe this will spice up her life.
Leave Franco an Elizabeth together continue
To keep him a softy but don’t let him b to soft.
Hey what if it’s sonny? How would Carly feel if he’ on his death bed again?
Sonny is under house arrest.
Well, maybe Alexis could mistake the accelerator for the brake and ram into Sonny’s mansion thereby running down Sonny lounging on his black leather Lazy Boy while watching Bay Watch repeats.
OK…you know what: I think that Alexis should MOW DOWN the following characters: Ava, Carly, Dante, Griffin, Jordan, Nina, Sonny and Spinelli.
Just an idea……….
I like the way you think, Jaybird.
Thanks. Much, much appreciated.
Mrs Kravitz…’lounging on his black leather Lazy Boy while watching Baywatch repeats’…TOO FUNNY…LOL!!!!! GOOD ONE!!!!!
Take care.
….or watching BEWITCHED repeats.
ABNER!!!!!!!!!!
Mr. Fairman,
I would love to know if it’s true that TPTB are planning on redeeming Julian and how far they will go? That is, will they mow over Duke and Anna/Scorpio/Classic GH history in the process? The Jeromes are to Duke and Anna what the evil Cassadines are to the Spencers so if this is a continuation of tossing aside everything Classic GH to accommodate what’s considered hot at the moment (though I hardly think it will still be talked about even 3 years from now), it’ll only confirm the worst fears of lapsed fans. I do recall that Jelly said previously in one of your interviews that they wanted Anna to get her Justice for Duke. Since that hasn’t happened, I can only assume the execs/FV changed the direction to keep WD on canvas which is highly disappointing and much too late considering we haven’t had a chance to sympathize with him at all the entire time. He’s had very little POV. To fill it in now with what is inconsistent with his history and his almost slashing of his wife’s throat with the dagger that killed her mother is hideous at best. Thanks for your reporting as always.
Hey, JMER,
Great post….sympathy for a character has many faces.
Now, I love WD, the actor. Not so the character. And, regardless of any redemption coming his way; I have a problem giving him tabula rasa.
Everyone deserves a second chance, but, not Julian; not; Sonny; not anyone of this ilk…..not, when the same pernicious deeds are committed without the blink of an eye on a regular basis. It is pretty presumptuous of them….sticks to the craw when they keep getting away with it.
So, I care not how much Julian loves Alexis. I care not if she may forgive him. I care not how popular a character Julian is with the ladies. I care not how enticingly perfect his derriere is……a cad is a cad is a cad.
Furthermore, I have come to appreciate Alexis….I would be soooo disappointed if I had to revert back to my old concept of her.
…..Follow your brain, Alexis !!!! Stay away the deep!!!!…..even the most beautiful, serene, invitingly blue waters are infested with sharks.
I hope the writers listen to my oh, so sagacious words! LOL.
General Hospital
GENERAL HOSPITAL: Jason and Britt Reach an Impasse; Is This the End of Their Relationship?
On the Friday, September 11 episode of General Hospital, Jason (Steve Burton) and Britt’s (Kelly Thiebaud) relationship becomes strained to potentially the point of no return.
Things take a turn when an unglued Britt having been traumatized by almost being killed by Anna Devane (Finola Hughes) asks Jason to back her up with the PCPD when she reports Anna for attempted murder.
However, Jason told Britt, he can’t. Jason shares that he does not believe Anna would have gone through with shooting her. Therefore, Britt was not in any real imminent danger. Britt is flabbergasted and hurt that Jason is refusing to tell the police what he actually witnessed for himself on Mount Emerson.
Courtesy/ABC
BRITT WANTS BACK UP FROM JASON
Jason counters that he can’t believe that Britt would want Anna punished. or sent to prison, or a mental facility after the trauma she endured while being locked up and mentally tortured while at Wyndemere.
He asks Britt, “How could you even say that you want her locked up or prosecuted for what she did when you knew she was being held prisoner and you did nothing to save her?” Britt is stunned by Jason’s response.
Coming up, official General Hospital spoilers share that on the upcoming Monday, September 14 episode, Jason confides in Carly (Laura Wright), while Britt is stung. In the video preview that aired at the end of the Friday, September 11 episode for this coming Monday, Britt says to Jason, “You don’t believe me. Do you?”
General Hospital head scribes, Chris Van Etten and Elizabeth Korte previously teased in their fall preview of the soap, “Britt and Jason have come a long way and fought a lot of enemies to be together. But the most stubborn obstacle to their happiness isn’t without, it’s within. Decisions Britt made to stay alive while under Cullum’s thumb will come back to haunt her and may prove too difficult for this unlikely couple to survive.”
So, what do you think will happen? Will Jason and Britt break-up over Britt’s lies and Jason’s unwillingness to report Anna’s crime against her? Do you want Jason and Britt to go their separate ways? If they do, will Britt become romantically involved with Dr. Tristan Roberts (Dean Geyer) ? If so, who do you pair Jason with? Anyone? Weigh-in via the comment section.
If Anna Devane’s (Finola Hughes) new therapist on General Hospital looks familiar to you, it’s because actress Kearran Giovanni, who plays Dr. Nichols, previously played a doctor on One Life to Live!.
Viewers tuning-in to the Thursday, September 10 episode of GH got their first look at Dr. Nichols who has been brought in to help Anna recover from her PTSD and trauma following the reveal that she has been suffering from a break in reality since before being put in mental health facility in France, after being gaslighted by Cullum and company earlier in the year.
One Life to Live fans will recall that Kearran Giovanni played Dr. Vivian Wright in 2009, and it was then she first worked with current General Hospital EP, Frank Valentini, who at the time was at the helm in Llanview.

WHERE ELSE HAVE YOU SEEN KEARRAN GIOVANNI?
Giovanni appeared on OLTL in the recurring role through 2012 and in the final ABC episode of the beloved series was the the ob/gyn who delivered Destiny Evans (Shenell Edmonds) and Matthew Buchanan’s (Eddie Alderson) baby into the world, whom they named Drew Buchanan II after Bo Buchanan’s (Robert S, Woods) late son. In addition, Vivian has been dating Shaun Evans (Sean Ringgold).
In addition to One Life to Love, Giovanni has very impressive credits having appeared in numerous TV series and motion pictures including starring in the TNT drama Major Crimes from 2012-18, ABC’s Designated Survivor 2017-19, the CW’s Black Lightning from 2019-20. Most recently, Giovanni appeared on the Fox series, The Resident and has a recurring role on the CW’s crime series, Walker from 202-2024.
HEALING ANNA
On today’s General Hospital, after Anna’s harrowing meltdown where she almost shot and killed Dr. Britt Westbourne (Kelly Thiebaud) after seeing visions of “Peter August” (Wes Ramsey), Jason (Steve Burton) saved the day and talked Anna down from committing murder. Now, Dr. Nichols was introduced as a valuable staff member at the hospital. Although, this marked the first time in the history of the show we have heard of her character.
So, do you remember seeing Kearran Giovanni on One Life to Live? Happy to see that Anna may have a qualified therapist in charge of her healing, unless the doctor turns out to be not on the up and up? Let us know your thoughts via the comment section below.

GENERAL HOSPITAL: Anna Breaks Down in Front of Jason and Britt After Shots Are Fired
The Wednesday, September 9 episode of General Hospital featured top-notch performances by Finola Hughes and Steve Burton, as Anna holds Jason and Britt (Kelly Thiebaud) at gunpoint on Mount Emerson.
Anna is not in her right mind as hallucinations of Peter (Wes Ramsey) overtake her, egging her on to shoot and kill Britt. Jason begs Anna to put down the gun, but it’s clear Anna is speaking to someone who is not there, but in a direction that is just past Britt.
Suddenly, Anna screams at Britt, “You’re just like your father!” Anna also tells Britt that she knew Britt was aware that she was locked up on Spoon Island and did nothing to save her. Britt turns to Jason and tells him she had no idea Anna was on the Island, “until Cullum showed up in Port Charles.” That declaration gave Jason pause.

“PETER” TAKES A BULLET
Next, Anna is overcome with angst, filled with tears and screams out, “I won’t let you beat me!” She fires the gun where the imaginary Peter was standing, as Britt screams and Jason dove to cover her. Now completely shaken, Jason took the weapon from Anna and ordered Britt to leave the scene as Anna collapsed in Jason’s arms.
Jason was so concerned for Anna. She reveals she’s been seeing visions of Peter August since France. Jason shared his theory with Anna that she was manifesting her worst fears about Faison. However he knows deep down Anna would never have shot Britt. Jason promises to come back and clean up the area, but would take Anna home first.

ANNA ADMITS TO EMMA SHE TRIED TO KILL BRITT
At Anna’s, Jason brings her in the front door as Emma is there. Jason tells Emma (Braedyn Bruner) he would like to return and spend the night. A confused and worried Emma get the full story from her grandmother.
Anna explains she tried to kill Britt and she is not as well as she was pretending to be in France. Cut to: Jason cleaning up the site of Anna’s plot against Britt on Mount Emerson. He moves over and finds bullet casings on the ground and examines one of them.
The story climax also signaled the end of the run for Wes Ramsey, who has been showing up on episodes over the last several months as Anna’s dark side conscience. Now that Anna was able to break the psychological hold visions of “Peter” had on her, it ends this latest return of Ramsey’s.
So, what did you think about the scenes between Anna and Jason? Do you think Jason and Britt’s relationship will come to an end now that seemingly Britt revealed she knew Anna was held captive after Cullum came to town? Glad to know Anna won’t be haunted by visions of Peter August anymore? Weigh-in via the comment section below.
