Today as we head into the Christmas holiday, the producers of Beacon Hill have released their second promo entitled, “Will History Repeat Itself?”

In it, Sarah Brown (Katherine Wesley) and Alicia Minshew (Sara Preston) the two female leads in the story of Beacon Hill are shown in clips about their relationship… will they get back together after six years apart?

Meanwhile, Crystal Chappell stars as Alicia Minshew’s mother Claire, while GL and OLTL favorite, Ron Raines plays Chappell’s father and Minshew’s grandfather, Senator William Preston!  From the looks of it, both Claire and William looked to have some serious issues going on!

And as for the other loves potentially and currently in the lives of Katherine and Sara, well those are played by One Life to Live’s Jessica Morris as Diane Hamilton, and soap newcomer Rebecca Mozo as Laura Parker.  ATWT’s Scott Bryce also appears as Senator Tom Wesley, the father of Katherine in this new teaser!  Look for Beacon Hill to debut in March of 2014!

Wow this show looks really good, I will watch it, because i love sarah brown. I want sarah brown to come back to gh. She was the original carly. the second carly was good too. Her name was tamara braun. she is also a wonderful actress. laura wright, has been playing carly since 2005 is allright, but i want her gone. i want sarah brown back as carly.

Love Sarah too but I think it would be cool if she came back as Claudia and Tamara should play her sister or some kind of relative

Laura Wright is not Carly—I agree.

I am looking forward to this series in a major way! Crystal Chappell and others like her are visionaries; they realize years ago the web is the future of entertainment series, videos also for creativity and artistic control of your own creations.

I wish Sarah would be Carly again on GH. I love Tamara Braun on Laura Wright, but Sarah will always be Carly for me.

Oh, no, I LOVE Laura Wright as Carly! She is feisty, in-your-face and takes no prisoners! Love her!!! As far as watching “Beacon Hill”, it looks like a show about a bunch of lesbians in love. Love Alicia Minshew, but nooo thanks…

I so love this promo, it’s such an interesting story. Great cast an awesome people.

Looks great!!! Such a good cast!!! Love Boston!!! I will be watching!

This show looks amazing! I totally can’t wait for this to start and I kinda wish it was on Logo or something instead of just online.

I am so excited about this series. And love that it was shot in Boston, such a beautiful city to shoot in. Very exciting! SJB should come back to DAYS as Madison, and save Brady from himself!

The cast is incredible. Must see.

So is this a new series? Or is it the 2nd-3rd season?
Where does it air? I know it’s internet, but is it on Hulu or Netflix?
I’m kinda new to these internet shows…sorry to sound so dumb! LOL
😉

It’s appealing and I love the quality of the scenery.

Carol Burnett Talks About Being a Superfan of ‘All My Children’ on ‘Live with Kelly and Mark’

In a heartfelt reunion, of sorts, the one and only Carol Burnett appeared on Monday March 25th episode of Live with Kelly and Mark.

Burnett had first met Kelly Ripa (Hayley) and Mark Consuelos (ex-Mateo) back when they all appeared on All My Children together. Carol played Verla Grubbs first in 1983 and then again in the 90’s.

Host Kelly Ripa (ex-Hayley, AMC) noted to Burnett that “we go back a long time”. She also described Burnett’s character of Verla Grubbs, “extraordinary in every way.”

Carol’s love for All My Children is well-documented, hence legendary soap creator, Agnes Nixon, created the role of Verla for Burnett.

Speaking on how her passion for All My Children began, Carol told Kelly and Mark, “It started with my kids. They would watch at noon. I said, ‘What are you guys doing?’ I sat down and I started to watch and I got hooked!”

When Carol’s family decided to travel through Europe during one summer, the comedic legend recalled thinking, “How am I going to last if I don’t know what’s going on in Pine Valley?” She revealed she had a friend, “who sent me a telegram to the (different hotels) on Fridays to bring me up to date.”

In a hilarious moment from the segment, Carol recalled receiving a late night telegram while in Lake Cuomo when there was a knock at her hotel room door from the hotel manager who was shaking.

Carol related what it said, “Erica is still in a coma. Mark slipped again and ran away from rehab.” As Kelly and Mark broke into laughter, Burnett continued, “Chuck has learned that Donna is carrying his baby, who was once a hooker.”

Check out Carol explaining how she became an AMC Superfan below.

Malachy McCourt, ‘Ryan’s Hope’ and ‘All My Children’ Actor, Dead at 92

If you watched Ryan’s Hope through its 14-year-run, you know that Kevin the bartender became a beloved “member’ of the Ryan clan on the defunct ABC daytime drama series. The character of Kevin MacGuiness became so loved by the fans because of the actor who portrayed him, Malachy McCourt.

Sadly, according to his wife Diana McCourt to The New York Times, Malachy passed away on Monday from a heart condition and battling cancer. The actor was 92-years-old.

Playing Kevin on Ryan’s Hope was not much of a stretch for McCourt, because in his lifetime, he was the owner of 1950s Irish pub Malachy’s on Third Avenue in Manhattan. Known as one of the city’s great story-tellers, patrons from longshoremen to the actor Richard Harris would stop in and talk all things Irish with . On Ryan’s Hope, Kevin was best friends to “Ryan’s Bar” owner, Johnny Ryan (Bernie Barrow) and he tried to keep Delia (Ilene Kristen) on the straight and narrow.

In his soap opera career, McCourt also was widely-known for his role of Father Clarence McCourt on All My Children especially come Christmastime. Was Clarence, actually St. Nick? That was always the proverbial question. McCourt also appeared on the New York soaps: One Life To Live, Search For Tomorrow and Another World. Other roles included: Devil’s Own, Brewster’s Millions, The Molly Maguires, and Starman, to name 

Later in 2006, Malachy ran for governor of the state of New York as a Green Party candidate. He tackled social issues of the time including being an advocate for gay and lesbian groups to march in the annual St. Patrick’s Day Parade.

McCourt’s childhood was recounted within his brother Frank McCourt’s Pulitzer Prize-winning memoir Angela’s Ashes, which detailed their mother’s attempt to raise the four of their surviving seven children in poverty in Limerick, Ireland. Later, Malachy wrote his own memoirs: 1998’s Monk Swimming, and 2000’s Singing My Him Song.

Malachy is survived by his aforementioned wife, Diana, daughter Siobhan McCourt; sons Malachy Jr., Conor and Cormac; stepdaughter Nina Galin; nine grandchildren; and one great-grandson.

Share you remembrances and condolences for Malachy McCourt via the comment section, but first check out this scene from a 1983 episode of “Ryan’s Hope” featuring the late actor with Ilene Kristen.
