Who says the soaps don’t have top notch performances? Well, TV Line each week comes up with their choice for Performer of the Week and this week they chose Katie LeClerc of Switched at Birth for top honor! HOWEVER, guess who was in the running and made their Honorable Mentions? None other than the Kirsten Storms (Maxie Jones) of General Hospital! Kirsten was also in good company with another Honorable selection in Jes Macallan of Mistresses!
As for Storms, what a surprise and treat it has been over the last few episodes of the ABC soap to see sisters Maxie and Georgie in scenes together which carried heavy emotional weight for Maxie!
TV Line related about Kirsten’s performance: “Kirsten Storms delivered a major punch to the gut when her beloved character Maxie was both treated to and haunted by a surprise reunion’ with her late sister Georgie. Through sobs of joy and sorrow, Maxie was forced to face some unpleasant truths about her recent questionable actions (she’s currently carrying her own child, but passing it off as the unborn baby of her best friend), and appeared to come out the other end of the otherworldly visit better for it. Storms turned in a performance that evoked sympathy for her selfish alter ego, no easy feat indeed.”
So what do you think GH fans … did Kirsten knock it out of the park? Did you enjoy the scenes between Maxie and Georgie? Were you surprised? Share your thoughts … and congrats Kirsten!

Definitely knocked it outta the park! Heartbreaking and beautiful scenes.
DITTO!
The scenes were sooo good! I cannot tell you how much I miss Georgie and the Jones Girls together. It seemed just like yesterday they were sharing scenes together. Kudos to both Lindze and Kirsten!
Love her!
Kirsten did an awesome job!!!!!!
Also- I am so ready for this story to end..
I am losing interest, it drags on and on and on , nuff already..
(I hate long drawn out stories)
Can’t wait to see more scenes with Georgie & Maxie! It was so good seeing her again.Georgie is just there to help her sister. Give her the courage to tell Dante and LuLu that the baby she is carrying is hers ! And that their baby died. Looks like a good chance Spinelli & Maxie will get back together.
couldn’t agree more. why can’t they just have a three-month pregnancy? oh wait, because they’re not
She did an excellent performance but, she always does. She is a great actress congrats Kristen
I love Kristen Storms as Maxie and she did an excellent performance on the surprise visit of the ghost of her sister, Georgie. I loved the chemistry between them as sisters and hope Georgie will pay more ghostly visits to Maxie on GH!!!!!!
LOVED those scenes and I wish they would bring Georgie back. Maybe Frisco put her in hiding to protect her or one of his enemies took her after making it look like she died. I’d take Georgie any day over Ellie or Sabrina. Much richer character with a great history!
Kirsten is always great… but she was even better this week with Georgie there!!! I wish Georgie could be back more often… they are so great together! Kirsten deserves a power performance shout out!!! Well done Kirsten!!!
Regardless of how much one loves or hates this story, Kirsten did an amazing job, and I was moved to tears at the end of Friday’s General Hospital!
Loved having Georgie back! Awesome scene! Love KS! But I am also ready 4 this s/l to end.
Definitely heartbreaking and wonderful “come to Jesus” scenes with Georgie! Awesome job Kirsten!! I was just waiting for Georgie to say not to worry, because Brit is carrying Dante and Lulu’s baby! so much for wishful thinking
She was excellent!! She had me in tears with Maxie! Hope how soon she and Spin reunite and raise their baby!
It will be a journey for Spin and Maxie to get back together..
Spin has love and is committed to Ellie Trout, and he will not dump her and run to Maxie, Spin would not do that..
Ellie will need to let spin go..
Ellie’s purpose on GH is to be with Spin…
So unless she will be leaving GH, it will be awhile before Spin and Mixie reunite..
If spoilers/rumors are to be believed, Ellie is kidnapped and possibly killed . That def would open the door for a Spixie reunion.
I really enjoyed the scenes with Maxie and Georgie! Kristen has really grown as an actress!! I loved seeing the Jones sisters together again!!
Duh, she was great, she always is!
First let me say,my criticism of the writing,direction of the show notwithstanding,she is a phenomenal comedic actress,she is the real deal,she is worthy of the Emmy next year for this alone….there are still some parts of this show that still captivate me..this is it!!! Congrats to K.. …….
It’s was an excellent episode and enjoyed seeing Georgie…miss the sister connection. Bravo Kirsten and Lindze. Ron & Frank kudos for a great surprise!!!
She is and has always been one of the best in daytime. She should have had an emmy this year.
Way to go, Kirsten!
I hope she submit those scenes for an Emmy nod next year. Just incredible.
Yay! Go Kirsten. She’s always been a favorite of mine.
Kirsten did knock it out of the park!!! She is a fantastic actress and I know that those were real tears in her eyes when she saw and talked to Georgie. It was a wonderful episode, and I really enjoyed watching it!!!
I hope Maxie tells Lulu and Dante about the baby being hers and Spenelli’s very soon. I know Lulu and Dante will be devastated, but I think there’s a twist there just waiting to come to light. I think Britt’s baby is actually that second embryo and this will be discovered soon after Maxie tells the truth. Am I close???
Which only begs the question – Why was Georgie killed off the show to begin with?
Clearly Maxie only does well when her sister is around.
I adored the scenes btw Maxie & Georgie. Why, WHY, WHY can’t the writers find a way to bring Georgie back? Such a waste. Another casualty of the incredibly destructive Guza Regime.
