Felix Dubois’ (Marc Anthony Samuel) on-screen family is  starting to grow … and… it also brings in another character for the younger set for General Hospital’s summer storylines!

Soap Opera Digest relates that former 666 Park Avenue star, Samantha Logan joins the cast as Taylor Dubois!

GH head writer Ron Carlivati related on the story for Taylor:  “She comes to spend the summer and takes an immediate liking to TJ, which will complicate what was already a pretty complicated situation.”

Look for Samantha to be first seen on-air as Taylor on June 4th!

So, what do you think about Felix getting a sis? And adding a new face to the younger set?  Let us know!

I can’t wait for them to bring on their father… Toussaint DuBois from Night Shift… played once again of course by the one and only Billy Dee Williams!

Was that BDW’s character’s last name on “Night Shift”? I didn’t realize. And if that’s the case, why hasn’t Epiphany mentioned this? Although I guess “DuBois” isn’t that uncommon a last name.

anyone know where Epiphany is lately ?? I heard she’s on a different show..

SOUNDS REALLY INTERESTING TO ME, AS HAVING ANOTHER FAMILY ON GH IS FANTASTIC. NEW AND OLD FACES COMING TOGETHER MAKES ALOT OF SENSE. I DO HOPE THE ENTIRE DUBOIS FAMILY IS COUNTED IN ON THIS IDEA, AS OUR HEAD NURSE WAS ALSO INVOLVED WITH THE POP. LOVE THE IDEA. GOOD THINKING TPTB. REALLY LOOKING FORWARD TO IT. CAN’T WAIT TO WELCOME ALL OF THEM TO GH.

Glad to see some roots being established. I like Felix and hope that continues with his family showing up.

She is beautiful, looking forward to more Du Bois!

she’s cute, it should be fun!

I hope she can act

she was on the tv show 666 park ave and in my opinion she can act.

Great, I love me some Felix. Hopefully, this expands his screentime.

She looks beautiful and i dont mind Felix getting a sister but i want to see more Mac, Felicia, Anna, Duke, Laura, Luke, and Scottty plus a Robert Scorpia update…is he still in a coma?

You are not going to see TR anytime soon if ever his airtime concerning Robin was only because TG was not available to do those scenes. I wish them the best of luck GH but I never watched it full time on the 50th soapnet tribute I could count on one hand how many episodes I had watched over the years. Just bored out of my skin but I wish them nothing but the best to stay on the air.

I was going to try to say something negative about having too many characters on the show, but i do like that they do move the storylines much faster than soaps used to so I am happy to see what happens….

I feel exactly the same way. For a show with budget issues I can’t imagine how they afford all these actors.

they get pay per appearance, recurring actors do, contract player get a guarantee pay.

Molly – TJ – Rafe.

I adore Molly…. she needs to remain a little girl for awhile longer…. at least not romancing TWO. TJ and Rafe… even tho… she’s definition CUTE with. she’s good with either or….

I like her with TJ… definately because i like the interracial perspective. that goes a long way in communicating to younger viewers.

Summer time teen angst time…. at best… GH has the young talent and they’re cute and fun to watch.

Enough with the newbies. Bring our Vets back.. Especially Frisco Jones..

He came back. He was gross, he left! Yay!

I love the african american presence on this show, and love some Felix!!!!! This is definitely gonna get good and she is gorgeous!!!! Can’t wait!!!!!

i have been re-watching old episodes of “One Life to Live” on SoapNet and on one episode I counted SEVEN African-American actors. I hope that “CarlaTini” can bring some of that inclusiveness to “General Hospital” where so far we have Shaun, TJ, Epiphany, Felix and soon Felix’s sister.

Oh my goodness…my son knows her! Oh, I’m so happy for her and really happy they are extending Felix’s family – love me some Felix!

Awesome! Loved her on Park Ave 666 she’ll be great on GH!

I am a HUGE Felix fan and I am glad he is getting a sister to give him more presence on the show, Felix adds so much everytime he is on screen. Way To go also, with the Alexis/Shaun Relationship, I love how they are together.

She is so horrible! I think I am giving up on GH again.

She is a good actress, but the show doesn’t need another unlikeable character. There are way too many unlikeables on the show.

Felix, however is great, and if having a sister on the show increases his airtime, I’m all for it!

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.

GENERAL HOSPITAL: Jason Learns Britt Died and Tells Anna He Has Been Working For Cates Since November 2021

On the Tuesday, March 26th of General Hospital, Anna (Finola Hughes) and the viewers learn about where Jason (Steve Burton) has been for over two and half years. However, Jason gets some news of his own.

Anna is visiting Jason at the PCPD interrogation room. She asks him if he shot Dante (Dominic Zamprogna), which he flatly denies. Anna believes him, but she tells Jason it doesn’t matter, because video footage shows him on the roof at the time of the shooting

When talk turns to Jason not willing to speak without his lawyer present, Anna can’t grasp why Jason would instead spend an hour alone talking with John Cates (Adam J. Harrington).

It is then that Anna brings up that John went by “Jagger” and that the two of them knew each other in high school. Jason doesn’t recall much of his time in high school following his brain injury, but then he gets furious realizing John knew about “Jason’s” past. That is when Jason slams the table and tells Anna, “I’ve been working for John Cates since November 2021.”

Next, Jason explains further that he has been working as an informant for the FBI. Anna wants to know how this came about and he tells her that after the tunnel collapsed, and he couldn’t make it to Britt (Kelly Thiebaud)… all of a sudden he sees Anna’s face drop.  Anna is the first person to tell him that Britt died and was murdered. She tells Jason the killer is in custody, but he continues to be shocked, overwhelmed with tears welling up in his eyes. Realizing he has to pivot to save his life, Jason continues telling Anna how he wound up working with John.

Jason explains that after the tunnel collapse in Greece, FBI agents grabbed him and placed him under arrest and took him to Quantico where he met John. At Quantico, John played a recording of RICO violations and offered Jason a deal if he agreed to be an informant against Pikeman, the illegal arms dealer.

Anna hears from Jason that he thinks Pikeman is selling illegal arms to anyone flagged by the NSA but has ties to the WSB which they needed a civilian to infiltrate their organization as a military soldier, a mercenary.

Jason tells Anna he was a part of the team brought into eliminate Sonny (Maurice Benard). Every time an attempt was made on Sonny’s life over the last two years, a different team was sent to do the job. Anna gets furious when she learns that John told Jason his job was to kill Sonny and she was with John at the warehouse that night. Jason ensured the sniper missed Sonny and left the rifle behind. However, they were supposed to meet an extraction team. Before he was shot, Dante saw it was Jason on the roof and when he turned around with his hands over his head, Dante was shot by the other guy. Jason says if Dante dies, he’ll be charged with capital murder and then will be useless to the FBI.

Meanwhile, John visits Bobbie’s and runs into Carly (Laura Wright). She learns Jason is in custody and is going to head to the PCPD. Before she does, Carly has some words with Cates when she learns not only does John have a vendetta against Sonny, but Jason too.  Carly tells John he should recuse himself from the case.

So, what did you think about the moment when Jason learned Britt died? What do you think of Jason’s return storyline thus far and what we learned about Jagger/Jason and more? Comment below. But first, check out a moment from today’s GH with Jason and Anna.
