Who went down and hit the floor?  That was the question Revengers were waiting to find out on on last night’s midseason finale of ABC’s Revenge, the series that always rocks the house with a gut-wrenching emotional death scene did it again! But who bit the bullet?  DO NOT READ ANY FURTHER IF YOU HAVE NOT SEEN THE EPISODE!

After a fantastically orchestrated battle scene between Emily (Emily VanCamp) and the evil Agent Taylor (Courtney Ford), with fistacuffs, guns, bullets, being thrown through glass, etc, as the two women battle two men happen on the scene one is Daniel (Josh Bowman) and the other is Jack (Nick Wechsler)! Rot-ro!

Throughout the entire episode, and in true soap opera tradition, Daniel came full circle through flashbacks with his manipulative father Conrad, yes, great to see Henry Czerny on screen again!

Daniel realized he had chosen the wrong path and wants to right the wrongs of himself and the family, something he tried to do back in 2008, but his dad convinced otherwise.  In current time and in key scenes, after learning that Margaux (Karine Vanasse) is pregnant with his child, and as the in-battled duo decided to meet up and discuss their relationship and start anew  …  and as Margaux is getting all gussied up for Daniel, the younger Grayson ends up in the line of fire and takes bullets from Agent Taylor meant for Emily!  Jack has also now happened on the scene intent on saving Emily.

Daniel dies in Emily’s arms! But not before there is a five hankie moment between the former marrieds, where Daniel and Emily sort of admit they loved each other in their own way:  Emily: “You’re going to be OK.”  Daniel: “Stop lying to me.”  Emily: “I want you to know that it wasn’t all a lie.  Not with you.” Daniel: “I know.”

On Twitter last night Emily VanCamp tweeted to her real-life beau Josh Bowman on his performance: “#JoshBowman owning that scene like a champ! Phenomenal work throughout the entire episode.”

So, what did you think of the final scene between Josh and Emily? Were you surprised it was Daniel that got the axe, although we knew awhile back Josh Bowman let be known he wanted to be written-off?

Revenge returns with all-new episodes on Sunday January 4th where we pick up at Daniel’s funeral! Comment below on your thoughts on the whole shebang!

Really sad to see Daniel go! He was magnificent in his last show!!!

I love the show. I think they are taking things to a whole new level now that David is back.. I just don’t like having Conrad and his son gone in what may be the final season….Couldn’t they some how have waited till the end? DOOL should snag him for the new EJ

Josh Bowman is a fine actor! His performance was outstanding and made you believe that he would have turned his life around. Great writing!!! Good luck on your future endeavors!! Whatever you decide, I am sure you will be incredible.

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.
