What GC Resident Will Emma Be Connected To? Alice Greczyn Joins The Cast Of Y&R!

There is a new face coming to Genoa City, who according to CBS Soaps In Depth will be connected to someone in the town! But who will it be?
Actress Alice Greczyn has been cast in the role of Emma, who is reportedly a young woman who works at Genoa City Memorial Hospital.
The role is said to be recurring, and Greczyn will first be seen on-air sometime in early September on the number one CBS soap opera.
Alice’s other credits have included: The Lying Game, Make It Or Break It, and Privileged.
So, who will Emma know in Genoa City? Comment below!
I really liked her on the lying game. She could give Lily run for her money with Cane!
Am sure she will be sleeping with Victor by Christmas. In fact, I wouldn’t be surprised if a “Who’s the Daddy?” storyline unfolds in the spring involving her Victor and Noah.
Oh, great – first we get “FOJ” (friends of Jill) popping up on “Y & R” and we get “FOP” (friends of Pratt)?!?
THE LYING GAME was another lame attempt by Pratt to create an hour-long drama on cable – didn’t last long and now we’re going to be subjected to castoffs from his prime-time abortions?!?
Thinking she will have something to do with Neil and them probably something to do with Malcolm.
Most likely she is some long lost relative of Katherine’s and she will be romantically linked to Stitch. Stitch is badly suited for Abby and I am sorry, his pairing with Ashely is just odd and borderline creepy.
Amendment to my original comment–I think she is the sister of the soldier who served in Afghanistan and who died. He was Stitch’s patient and today he said he was going to notify his next of kin.
Hi dear Harry..
I believe you are correct, yes!…
She even matches with his family characteristics- hair, eyes..
My first thought was she might be related to Victor’s manservant that used to be at the ranch years ago– Miguel. He left the ranch in 2008 to help take care of a sick aunt, maybe Emma is her daughter–Miguel’s niece. Or maybe Marissa will turn out to be related to Miguel. Because if they are going to have newbies it would be nice if they could tie them to the history of the show. Speaking of Marissa, does anyone else have this sick feeling there is a Marissa-Victor hook up coming down the pike? Brrrr gives me shivers just thinking about it.
Mary–like your idea better than mine. I loved Miguel and was just thinking about him.
Yes, the sickening thought of Victor hooking up with Marrissa did cross my mind when she told him that she was raised in an orphanage. Did you see Victor’s face perk up? Considering that he’s old enough to be her grandfather (just like Jack and Marco) and she is romantically involved with his grandson, it would be especially troubling.
PS> I like the actress who plays Marrissa–she’s easy on the eyes and her acting is not half bad. She reminds me of a younger Eva Longoria, who also got her start on Y&R.
Oh goodness, yes. I saw Victor’s lips get even more moist when she told him she was an orphan. And that thought crossed my mind and then I thought: no. The lowest of the low was him marrying Sharon who was like a daughter to him for years, not to mention his actual daughter-in-law. To have Victor compete with his GRANDSON for a woman would be a whole new level of science fiction/fantasy that I’m not sure I could sign up for. Like you, Harry, I like Marisa and I think her acting is better than that of some other newbies we have seen. I would like Victor to take his eyebrows, his mustache and his moist lips….on a long business trip. Far, far away.
It doesn’t matter who she will be connected to..
If she is not a Newman or Abbott she will be near insatiable ..
Great, Just what the show needs, 2 more newbies (They signed a new actor also) -Whose airtime will they be at the expense of this time? I wonder if she may be related to Sage. Just what we need more family of hers to keep her in Genoa City.
Totally agree, Vicki!
Sage may be one of the most boring characters in dayitme. She has zero personality. I fast forward through all of her scenes.
Of course the head writer earns more revenue for characters that he or she created which is why so very often core characters are ignored by new writers.
So true, Harry. Sage is so completely bland and her pairing with Nick
is ridiculous, too. Like you, I also FF Sage. When I see her, I always
am like Why? Why is she there?? And too many core characters are not.
Nanci, the other day Sage freaked out when there was a fly in her room and Nick saved the say by swatting it with a fly swatter. Both Sage and Nick just stared at the dead fly as if it represented something.
That was the most riveting scene in which Sage participated thus far.
Previews showcase Sage trying to clean the streaks off her glass sliding glass door and she cannot figure out if the streaks are inside or outside. She becomes hysterical and somehow blames Adam….or Windex.
Stay Tuned! Sage is as exciting as my robo vacuum. No, I take that back–my robo vacuum is far more exciting.
LOL, Harry! You are hilarious…I cracked up reading that, especially Sage
with the glass sliding door…totally got a visual of Sage in that whole scenario!
The only fly in ointment of that theory is Pratt didn’t create Sage, Altman did. What Pratt did was change Sage from a mastermind con artist who used Bingham money to make Adam Gabe so she could collect the fortune to Suzy Sunshine who wants nothing more than to be barefoot and pregnant in Nick’s kitchen.
The same thing happened to Avery. MAB created her to be a tough as nails lawyer with an ax to grind and Griffith came along and made her Betty Crocker 2.0
It is really sad when female writers create strong and powerful women, just to have a male writer turn them into helpless damsels in distress who want nothing more out of life than to be with the man they love–
So if Sage is dull as dishwater it is only because it seems male soap writers are stuck in the 50’s in their portrayal of women or else rumors of JFP hatred of smart intelligent female characters has overrule every writer desire to move female characters on the the soap into the present century
All Pratt writes for on women is nuts or sluts!
She is Sharon’s doppelganger’s daughter who will mistake Sharon as the doppelganger. She is going to replace Sharon’s medication with placebos! Sharon will go for treatment in the psychiatric hospital where her doppelganger works!!!
I see her being Marisa’s younger sister.
When I first saw her picture, my thought was that she looks very similar
to Marisa.
If Pratt was going to pull someone from Lying Game it should have been Christian Alexander as the new Fenn.
Hi K/Kay,
Trying to find a bright spot of some women not nuts or sluts,
and I did have to think hard actually, lol. But we do at least
have Chelsea, Jill, Lily, Phyllis, Mariah, Victoria,and Marisa who don’t
act nutty or slutty. Those are the only ones who come to mind!
General Hospital
Who Should Justin Bruening Play on ‘General Hospital’? Wife Alexa Havins is Down for His Return to Soaps
Will General Hospital be able to reunite on-screen real live loves and former All My Children co-stars Justin Bruening and Alexa Havins, by casting Justin in a role on the ABC daytime drama series?
The subject came back up when Alexa, who attended the 53rd annual Daytime Emmy Awards on Friday, October 30 to root GH on to its sixth Outstanding Drama Series win in a row, spoke with Swoon.
Havins shared, “There’s always talk about him: ‘Is he going to come (on the show)?’ That would be amazing since we started (on a soap). Why not? He would definitely come in and play,”

IS IT TIME TO REUNITE JUSTIN AND ALEXA ON-SCREEN IN PORT CHARLES?
However, when taking to the red carpet, it was obvious Justin was not with his wife, and she clarified while she attended daytime’s biggest night, the former Jamie Martin of Pine Valley dropped her off at the Emmys, and went home to take of their four children. Alexa smiled, “Right now, he’s watching all my children. That’s my pun!”
Bruening and Havins married back in 2005. Recently, and as reported, Justin came to visit his wife at the set of General Hospital and posted some photos from it via his Instagram. One caption read directed towards Alexa, “You’re cute…..What are you doing the rest of your life? I’m thinking……… 4 kids? House in the burbs? 1,001 pets?”
General Hospital is also the current soap home of Bruening’s former TV father, Michael E. Knight (Martin Grey) who played Tad Martin on the beloved All My Children. So, if Justin nabs a role, he could be reunited with both his wife and Pine Valley father!
So, put your casting director hats on! If Justin Bruening were to come to General Hospital? Should be play an original role created for him? Should he be a recast for a character currently off the canvas? And, should he brought on as a love interest for Lulu Spencer or someone else? Let us know your thoughts via the comment section.
Days Of Our Lives
Raven Bowens Breaks Silence About Being Fired From ‘Days of our Lives’ and Her Future Plans
Days of our Lives actress Raven Bowens has opened about publicly about what happened when she learned back at the very beginning of 2026 that she was being let-go by the soap opera after playing Chanel Dupree for five years.
Bowens took to her TikTok and explained in a video what went down and how that helped inspire her next move in life. “On January 2nd, before I could even start on any of my New Year’s resolutions, I got fired,” shared Bowens after receiving a call from DAYS early that morning.
“For the backstory, I spent five years working on Days of Our Lives. I played Chanel Dupree. I love my character. I love the show. I love everyone that I worked with. I had just signed a new contract that was for nine months, but every three months, your contract can not be renewed or picked up.”

THE DREADED CALL
Chanel recalled the moment she found out. “It’s like, eight o’clock in the morning, and I am completely blindsided” Next, Bowens recalled saying to her sister in that moment, “‘Why would my producer be calling me on January 2nd? We don’t go back to work for a week. Something is going on. I think I’m getting fired.” Then, Chanel revealed, “I answered that call, and that is what that call was.”
As to the reason for her pink-slip, Raven shared, “I was told that they didn’t have a storyline for me at the moment and so they will be writing my character off at the end of my current storyline.”
Trying to buckle up after hearing she was being fired, Raven recalled, “While that isn’t fun, that is the business of show business, especially on soap operas. So it is what it is. That’s the contract I signed. I had to accept it. But it was a really hard reality.” She realized, “Having spent five years in Salem, I got comfortable. That was like my second home.”
RAVEN BOWENS EXITS DAYS ALONG WITH THREE OTHER ACTORS
As Days of our Lives fans know, Bowens along with her on-screen love Carson Boatman (Johnny), Leo Howard (Tate) and Ashley Puzemis (Holly) were also let go at the same time. Since DAYS tapes nearly 10-11 months in advance, Raven and Carson’s final airdates should be right around the corner, although nothing has been released.
After explaining the life-changing job news, Raven explained what she is up to next: “My next chapter is not my acting career ending because I’m an actress. I will always be an actress. I have sacrificed so much for this life and for this career and I love it. I will never give it up and I will never quit. However, losing the job made me realize the importance other streams of income.”
THE NEXT CHAPTER POST-DAYS
From there, Bowens encouraged fans to follow her journey on TikTok to become a millionaire by the end of 2027 with money and wealth management. In fact, she launched a new TikTok series, Millionaire Pending where she plans to document the financial journey she is with advice from a financial adviser, wealth coach and her father.
Bowens explained, “When that job ended, I was kind of shocked. I had felt a certain sense of security, even working in a non-secure profession, and I didn’t really prepare. This series is me trying to put myself in a position so that nothing like this ever happens again.”
So what do you think about Raven coming forward with how her dismissal from Days of our Lives went down? Will you miss Chanel and Johnny when they eventually exit Salem? Will you be interested to check out Raven’s wealth management series on TikTok to see if you can pick up any pointers for financial security and success? Let us know via the comment section.
