If you watched Wednesday’s episode of Revenge, called “Justice”, there were so many twists and turns that it kept viewers on the edge of their seats.  How many double-crosses can you put in one episode? Apparently several,  and they were all riveting!

But in the end when the dust settled (for now), it was clear, or was it? …  that Emily (Emily VanCamp) and Jack (Nick Wechsler) have their attraction, while Daniel (Josh Bowman) was on to Emily and then some true  “Grayson” popped out of him!  Yes, jealousy runs rampant in the Hamptons!  But, does Daniel still love Emily?

So we ask our soapers …  who do you think Emily should end up with?  Jack or Daniel?  Or, do none of the guys deserve this revenge-thirsty gal?

In addition, EW.com also has a very clever and hilarious photo gallery out that takes a look at the Top Ten Emily Thorne Tactics for seeking revenge!  When explaining Emily’s plots and thinking, EW.com juxtaposes them against other motion picture or television characters and their tactics!  The Top Ten list titles are quite amusing, and include:  The Rachel Leigh, The Inverted Mr. Ripley, The Michael Dawson Bullet; or Ow How My Arm Hurts!,  The Mia Kurshner Cat Burglar Explosion, and The Olivia Dunbar Hair-Color Mood Ring (Our favorite) plus  several other comparisons!

Let us know what you think of the gallery and Emily’s revenge tactics too!

Emily needs a real man and that is Jack

Emily needs to be in love with a Grayson–‘
Daniel

I say after being absent for all these years, clearly they should have a chance. You can see he felt something the first time he saw her, that connection and she clearly feels it to. Give them an honest chance. I say JACK!

Since they won’t put her with Nolan… then Jack!!!

Difficult. I really like Daniel and Jack. On the one hand I feel like Emily and Jack were meant to be…long lost childhood “sweethearts”…on the other Daniel has been nothing but good, loving and trusting toward Emily and is collateral damage under Emily’s plan. In a sense he’s her victim, undeservedly so.

Declan. Because otherwise there is no need for the character to even be on the show.

I have wanted her with Jack since the beginning.
I believe it will happen. She doesn’t love Daniel. She is all about REVENGE. Now she is pissed off that he got off! and she is ‘stuck’ lo!

I WANT JACK LOST CHILDHOOD SWEETHEARTS JACK KEPT HER DOG ALL THOSE YEARS GREAT GUY….

Definetely Jack its the only reason I watch the show. Their love story is beautiful

Jack <3

Daniel all the way!!!!!!!!!

Daniel because he loves her and he would do anything for her I know why you might pick jack because of their childhood but Emily changed and she should be with someone who makes her happy Daniel all the way!

Jack

Daniel! He’s sooooo adorable!

JACK & REAL AMANDA = END GAME!

I hope the writer wont bore us with an emily & jack ending.

Story wise, there is nothing more riveting than to see Emily fall in love with Daniel for real. For those who knew her, takeda and nolan keeps telling emily she might have feelings for Daniel, which she has kept denying at every turn.

Her affections for jack are so blatantly obvious, it makes me think the brainiac behind this story shouldnt go to the nearest solution. If ever Emily comes to see Daniel as more than her entry to Victoria and the Initiative, her vengeance would face a more serious hindrance, which adds excitement to the story.

Afterall, Emily exacted this revenge out of her love for her father.
What if something happen that wasnt in her master plan, like falling for the enemy’s son?

Wow, I am pro Jack, but I always said it would good writing if Fauxmily actually fell in love with Daniel and not be using him. Also, if Daniel actually fell in love with her as Amanda Clarke, b/c he is pulling away from his family. I also think it is good writing if Emily and Jack were secretly involved and Fauxmily letting her guard down while Jack plot his vendetta against her. . .Jack is the one that actually distracts her, and I could see him take her down b/c of this. I don’t see the spark w/ her and Daniel like I do w/ her and Jack. Victoria, even notices she doesn’t love her son. But if she actually noticeably (spark in eyes) fell in love w/ Daniel, that will make Victoria so tick, which is the only reason I would want her to fall for Daniel. . .would be a good ploy against the Graysons, her love for Jack has no negative impact on the Graysons, but could self destruct(which I think will happen will eventually happen). Her love for Daniel hurts the Graysons, her love for Jack hurts her, when the series ends, I can see both the Grayson and her go down, unfortunately I don’t think there will be a Happily Ever After for Fauxmily

Daniel!

Nolan – I am hoping for the unexpected – he is the only one who truly deserves her and is on par with her! Please don’t turn him into her brother, please!

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.
