Since last week, Kate has come back to Sonny, but things aren’t back to normal quite yet. She is still having visions of Connie in the mirror, and Connie is still out to take over. While arguing about Sonny, Connie told Kate she had a real connection with him. In response, Kate informed Connie that she is unable to have a real connection with anyone, considering she is not even a real person. To Kate’s surprise, Connie replied with stating that SHE is the real person. We have been wondering this since Connie emerged. If we think about it, She was born Constanza Louise Falconeri, and not until later in life, after a traumatic experience, did she assume the name Kate Howard. I think Kate has a long road to self discovery… I would bet on Connie being the real person and Kate is the alter. What do you all think?

Vanessa Marcil and Ingo Rademacher Returning to GH for 50th Anniversary
Soap Opera Digest reports via Facebook that Vanessa Marcil (Brenda) and Ingo Rademacher (Jax) will be returning for General Hospital’s 50th anniversary, and will arrive in Port Charles before April 1st. Ingo’s role as Jax will be brief as he will have his dancing shoes on for ABC’s Dancing with the Stars. Vanessa states that she likes Frank Valentini (Executive Producer), and is excited and honored that she is able to come in and out of the show.
This is such exciting news and I cannot wait to see these two fan favorites back in Port Charles.
Brandon Barash Leaving General Hospital
The rumors are true, Brandon Barash is indeed leaving General Hospital. Despite the fact that Barash tweeted he will begin a career in the NBA, the fact that he is leaving GH is not a joke. The Port Chuck Facebook page has confirmed that this is not a joke.
What does this mean for the band, Port Chuck? Steve Burton has moved on to The Young and the Restless, Scott Reeves has been let go from GH and will be departing soon, and now Brandon Barash has announced he will also be leaving. This leaves Bradford Anderson as the only member of Port Chuck remaining on GH.
Check out Brandon’s tweet!

Dr. Britt Westbourne on Crutches
In case anyone wondered what the heck they missed when they saw Dr. Westborn on crutches, here’s the scoop… Soap Opera Digest informed fans today that actress Kelly Thiebaud has injured herself in real life. The TV villain broke her femur and the writers decided to incorporate her injury into the script.
Ron Carlivati wanted to write in as if Frisco may have had something to do with Britt falling in the parking lot. I like that Britt is afraid of Frisco, and that he is being such a hard ass for Maxie’s sake.
General Hospital Blog wishes Kelly a speedy recovery!
Will GH’s Nikolas Cassadine (Tyler Christopher) Returns for The Nurses Ball?
Nancy Lee Grahn (GH’s Alexis Davis) tweeted that she was happy to see her TV nephew, Nikolas Cassadine, played by Tyler Christopher at General Hospital. There has been talk of having Nikolas return to Port Charles for the revival of The Nurses Ball and for General Hospital’s big 50th anniversary. With Nancy’s tweet we now have more reason to believe that it is more than just a rumor.

Dr. Steven Webber Shocker!
I was right about the fact that this story with Dr. Webber wasn’t going to be as straight forward as it was seeming. Despite my hunch, I still had no clue what was going to happen. It was a total shock when Steve survived. Steve and Olivia ALMOST get married when he is arrested by Memphis police. Remember a little while back when Dr. Maggie Worth and Dr. Steve Webber had that secret from back in Memphis? It ended up that Steve killed a patient in order to save another. That crime will finally come to bite him. Just after he survived a violent stab wound inflicted by his own Mother, he is about to marry the love of his life, Olivia, when it all comes crashing down. Stay tuned to see Scott Reeves’ exit from General Hospital.

One Year Without Robin Scorpio
“I can’t believe it’s been a year without you.” Anna said to herself about her daughter Robin. Earlier in the week we saw Patrick reflect on the loss of his wife and Mother of his child. It has been a whole year since Robin Scorpio has left behind her friends and loved ones. In between, we have seen her come and go as we know she is being held captive by Cesar Faison. Still, her husband, parents, child, and friends do not know she is alive. General Hospital’s 50th anniversary is coming up this April 1st, 2013. We have been prepared that there are going to be many surprises waiting for us.

Julie Marie Berman OUT at General Hospital
Julie Marie Berman, whom we all love and adore has been said to have taped her last episode today, February 26th, as Lulu Spencer Falconeri on General Hospital. As a fan of Ms. Berman and her character Lulu Spencer Falconeri, I am saddened by this news but also wish her the best of luck in her future endeavors. Julie has been an amazing Lulu since October, 2005. Her resemblance to TV Mother Genie Francis as Laura Spencer made it even easier to embrace the talented actress when she first arrive to the GH canvas. Julie’s scenes with TV Father Anthony Geary (Luke Spencer) we nothing short of fabulous. Those two could make you laugh, make you cry, and tug at your heart strings all at once. Ms. Berman and TV husband Dominic Zamprogna (Dante Falconeri) have had undeniable on screen chemistry and have established quite a large fan base for the coupling. Lante, as fans have nicknamed the duo, have been fan favorites for the last few years.
Julie confirmed this news via Twitter.

Actress Jen Lilley (ex-Maxie) has confirmed via Twitter that the rumors regarding casting her as the Lulu recast are indeed just rumors.

Goodbye Dr. Steven Webber aka Steven Lars
Well Heather has really outdone herself this time. After attacking Olivia with a knife for “getting in the way” of her relationship with her son whom she refers to as Steven Lars, she accidentally stabbed the knife into Steve’s abdomen just as Olivia saw in her vision. Who knows what will happen with Heather’s sanity (or lack thereof) after she faces responsibility for killing her own son.
Scott Reeves who plays Dr. Webber made an announcement a few months back that he was let go from General Hospital. R.I.P. Dr. Steven Webber.
