General Hospital

By noreply@blogger.com (Roger Newcomb) Tristan Rogers has been a favorite of soap fans since he first appeared as Robert Scorpio on GENERAL HOSPITAL in 1980. In recent years, through his online chats, video blogs and posts on his official websites, fans have gotten to know his thoughts on the world of daytime drama and what it tak...

By Shouldless@gmail.com (Damon L. Jacobs) In Part One of my interview with longtime GENERAL HOSPITAL star Jacklyn Zeman, the actress shared reflections on her early career and Bobbie Spencer’s backstory before coming to Port Charles. In Part Two, she looked back on two groundbreaking storylines, how Bobbie Spencer helped wome...

By mendie Do you remember Sigmund the duck, the Outback, or the Nurse’s Ball?  Well I do.  I remember light hearted moments sprinkled throughout the show that was filled with laughter and happy times.  I remember rolling on the floor laughing as I watched Lucy end up on stage year after year with a maj...

By mendie On the other hand I am so happy to have Jonathan back where he belongs.  Some characters can be recast (Carly being the prime example) and the new portrayers will go on to make it their own.  But as we all know some characters should never be recast.  Can we really imagine anyone else but Robin McCullough playing Robin Scorpio or perhaps Anthony Geary playing Luke Spencer?  Of course not.  It boggles the mind to even contemplate the idea.  I have always felt that Lucky was one of those characters because the original actor was so loved in the part that it was hard to imagine anyone else playing him.   I can only hope that by bringing Jonathan back that all this Jason/Elizabeth nonsense goes by the wayside and that the fallout that deserves to happen wh...   [read the full post]

By mendie Yes I am quite aware that Robin is now married to Patrick, but seeing as how Robin and Stone were the main reason I became a loyal fan of General Hospital I figured it was only fitting.  Plus if the truth must be known I was getting bored with the standard pictures I have been using and wanted to ch...

By tenillypo I’ve had a love/hate relationship with Kate for a long time. When she’s on…she’s on: Carly: You did take Michael to the warehouse without my permission. Things I was more excited about this week than watching General Hospital: pulling hairs out of the s

Welcome to 2009, Serial Drama readers! We hope you had fabulous New Year's Eve celebrations. Did you drink chamgagne, like Jax and Carly did on General Hospital? No? Well, better luck next year! (You have to appreciate how committed GH is to failing on every single level.) We know many of you...

In the December 9th issue of Soap Opera Digest, we turned our attention to Days of Our Lives, General Hospital and The Young and the Restless. After the jump, Becca looks back on the quality entertainment that Days and GH provided (she is as surprised as you are that she made it to 500 words), a...

By Sara A. Bibel Fancast.com Agnes of Goddessness Happy 10,000th episode All My Children! 2008 has been ABC’s year of anniversaries. The network earlier celebrated 45 years of General Hospital, and 40 years of One Life To Live. It’s interesting... By Sara A. Bibel Fancast.com Agnes of Goddessnes...

By Becca Not to pat myself on the back or anything, but I had predicted that General Hospital would win the best drama series Emmy, pretty much since the nominations came out. (You can never go wrong underestimating the taste and intellect of award show voters!) That may be why I haven't gone complet...

By We Love Soaps(noreply@blogger.com) New NIGHT SHIFT promises continuity with original GH SOAPnet has picked up GENERAL HOSPITAL: NIGHT SHIFT for a second season to launch in July, after the General Hospital spin-off scored record ratings for the cabler in its first year. HOLLYOAKS video clip: The "Confession Time" update

By Becca Do you sometimes wonder whether General Hospital is some kind of social experiment, in which we as viewers are being tested as to how much horribly crappy un-soapiness we can be subjected to without going postal and storming the studio? It seems like a risky strategy, but it makes far more...

By Becca Let's start with the biggest General Hospital news of late, the Daytime Emmy nominations. Mallory covered the high and low points brilliantly already, so I won't take up much of your time with this. (Mostly because knowing our readership, if I spend much space discussing GH being held up as...

By Becca I still don't really care about this show, but once you got past the cheesy "special" effects early in the week, without a stupid and implausible serial killer reveal or any more homicides of legacy characters, this week didn't suck quite as much as many. I'm not interested enough to do a ful...

By Connie Phillips On July 12, 2007 the cable network Soapnet launched their much hyped spin-off of ABC's daytime drama General Hospital to the best rating the network had ever seen. For weeks before that initial episode, the PR promised us a gritty, late-night soap that would show viewers what happened in t...

By Becca How boring is General Hospital right now? Why, with this cast and history, isn't this the best soap on daytime? Oh, right, the writing. I bet you wouldn't think that if you could watch the show on your Blackberry, though! ...

By Connie Phillips The inaugural season of Night Shift comes to a satisfying, yet confusing, close.

By spikey Jaxis and Alexis in general---enough said. Sonny/Kate-- Together and apart. Luke Spencer is returning. Crazy Johnny-- Will he be crazy like Logan or just misunderstood? Robin/Patrick- I don't for one minute think this is the end of them. They are so great together.. Jason/Robin =chemistry.

By Connie Phillips As Leyla wheeled her into the elevator, she noticed a panicked couple at the desk who appeared to only speak Farsi and told Jason and Spinelli, who were on the elevator, to take her to ten and rushed to help the other couple. Another contraction hit, Stacy cried out, and Spinelli pushed the bu...

By Connie Phillips We saw a brief break from the curse, or angel of death, that is stalking the halls of General Hospital's night shift last week, but she returned in grand form this week in an episode that focused on well known patient Stacy Sloan, the HIV positive woman who has had complications with her preg...

By Connie Phillips Robin was just as disturbed as I was by the father's selfishness surrounding his son's recovery, and found herself talking about that and her own fears about becoming a parent with Jason while Patrick quietly observed and overheard. It wasn't quite clear if was more upset about her rekind...

By Connie Phillips Three new patients, and one a familiar face, found their way into the Emergency Room lat Thursday and we checked in with one from two weeks ago. We were also treated to plenty of drama between the doctors, nurses, and staff of Port Charles' favorite hospital.Having been seduced by Dr. Kelly Le...

By Connie Phillips His parents consist of an over-protective and extremely distraught mother and an angry and fed-up father who has no clue how to relate to his son any more. When Patrick explains his diagnosis of a cerebral edema (the same affliction that turned Jason Quartermaine into Jason Morgan, by the...

By Connie Phillips Skin Deep" didn't have the super slick feel "Frayed Anatomies" had and the pace felt a bit slow, but the intricate and interesting storylines had me wishing the Night Shift could cross over into the daytime more. General Hospital: The Night Shift airs on Soapnet. New Episodes premiere Thur...
