SAG AFTRA reports actor’s and writer’s strikes are over
It’s been about a half of a year since the WGA announced the industry’s eighth writer’s strike since the 1950s. In early May, the buzz around Hollywood and beyond had reached our living rooms. The average everyday viewer became concerned about what this all means for their favorite shows. Then, the actor’s followed suit! Leading to the Actor’s strike.
People started asking questions about the strike and the potential impact. The strike impacts writers and their corresponding applications. For instance, General Hospital and other network Soap Operas film differently than other genres. Daytime dramas are fast-paced and high energy. Therefore, their aggressive pace sets Soap Operas weeks ahead of airing. But even with the grace period, General Hospital’s writers material ran out and that’s when alternative writer’s stepped in.
SAG AFTRA Reports Writer’s and Actor’s Strikes Are Over
After 6 long months, General Hospital news reports confirmed that The Writer’s Strike is officially over. Finally, an agreement has been made between the WGA and the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers (AMPTP). The official SAG•AFTRA Instagram account announced that the picket locations are closed, and the strike is officially suspended as of 12:01am on November 9th.
Thankfully, the worst is over regarding the 6 month old strike. And we no longer need to worry about what might happen if ratings decline during this delicate time. Previously, GH Blog passed along early details of the strike. The information provided was to let us know the risks if the fans stop watching General Hospital. As only one of four Soap Operas left on television, as Days only airs on Peacock, it’s imperative that we keep ratings up to avoid cancellation.
Take a look at the messages shared by SAG•AFTRA as the organization spreads the good news. Finally, the worry is over. Now writer’s and fellow actors can return to work!
Natalia Livingston Pays Tribute To Tyler Christopher
Nikolas Cassadine (Tyler Christopher) and Emily Quartermaine (Natalia Livingston) were EVERYTHING back in what I call the Golden Era of General Hospital. There’s no doubt that the 90s and the early 2000s brought on some of the best romances in GH history! (Ok, that’s my opinion, but many agree!) They were one of daytime television’s most iconic young couples.
Nikolas and Emily’s friendship with Elizabeth and Lucky sparked a lot of attention through the years. Many became invested in their lives and the romances between Liz and Lucky, a well as Nikolas and Emily. Together, they were know as the four musketeers. They were young, vibrant, and full of heart.
Reportedly, Natalia Livingston and Tyler Christopher’s work relationship ended when Emily Quartermaine was killed off the show. It’s no secret that Nikolas and Emily were crazy about each other. GH fans often wondered if Natalia and Tyler were friends in real life. Especially after her GH exit. While not much has been disclosed over the years, recent GH news reports bring forth some light to the topic.
According to GH news and spoilers, Natalia Livingston speaks our agh we Tyler Christopher’s death. The 47 year old actress took to Instagram to express her gratitude, love, and support for Tyler. Below you will find Natalia’s heartfelt tribute to her friend and former co-star, the late Tyler Christopher. Also know as the iconic Nikolas Cassadine. He will forever life inside of our hearts.
Natalia Livingston Pays Tribute To Tyler Christopher
Josslyn Jacks (Eden McCoy) and Adam Wright (Joshua Benard) didn’t exactly make fast friends with each other. Instead, he offended and insulted the freshman college student. Let’s just say that Joss wasn’t too trilled when Adam approached her regarding the viral sex video. That said, it’s a wonder that these two are not study buddies, and even friends.
According to General Hospital rumors, Adam’s fixation with Dex’s girlfriend grows stronger. Right now Adam and Josslyn have spent a little time together, but not enough time to have really gotten to know each other. Although his behavior seems a bit suspicious, Josslyn has yet to catch on.
Reportedly, General Hospital news and spoilers reveal that Joshua Benard and Eden McCoy prepare Adam for a front burner storyline. Joshua seems to be the perfect actor to portray Adam, who happens to have a dark side. In fact, he reminds me of someone, don’t you think? Hmm, who else has a good heart and a dark side?!
Maurice Benard’s son first appeared on General Hospital in November 12th, 2018, as a young Sonny who shot Joe Scully (1985).
Adam Takes Josslyn For A Wild Ride
Fast forward a few years and Joshua Benard returns to GH as his own character. Now, Joshua plays a complex role as Adam Wright sheds his skin and shows his vulnerabilities. General Hospital spoilers tease that Adam’s under a lot id pressure from his parents. His GPA is their number one priority. Because of this, Adam has already confided in Joss as they study hard as college freshmen.
While GH rumors tease that Dex warns Josslyn about Adam, new GH spoilers indicate that there’s a reason for the madness. It’s no secret that something is off with Adam. As it turns out, Joshua walks in his father Maurice’s footsteps as his role in General Hospital struggles with mental health. It’s yet to be confirmed whether Adam is bipolar, or possibly has borderline personality disorder. But according to recent reports, Adam will exhibit sort of a chameleon effect of behaviors toward the object of his affection- Josslyn Jacks.
GH spoilers warn, Josslyn better buckle up for this wild ride.
Ava Jerome (Maura West) turned to Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard) for help when Mason Gatlin (Nathanyael Grey) became a threat. Although his cousin Dr. Austin Holt (Roger Howarth) has a thing for the blond, former mobster, Mason has a job to do.
Austin’s lollipop licking cousin Mason
According to General Hospital recaps, Ava and Austin hit it off as friends before things quickly became physical. But that’s when threats escalated and there wasn’t time for any type of messing around in any aspect. So, was Ava and Austin’s encounter a “one and done” situation?
GH rumors tease that Austin can’t be trusted but he’s also not purely a bad guy. Instead, he’s been forced into this by family. Cyrus and Austin’s pasts are tied together and it seems like Cyrus uses that fact as leverage. Now that we know that Cyrus Renault (Jeff Kober) pulls the strings, it’s easier to see that Austin truly cares about Ava and doesn’t want to engage in Cyrus and Mason’s games. But Austin remains dishonest with Ava about the most important element of this entire situation. Not until Laura Spencer told Ava about Nikolas Cassadine’s bank activity did she think that her ex was alive. She eels to be in the dark about some important facts that could either keep her safe or risk her life.
Sonny Thinks Ava’s Sleeping With The Enemy
General Hospital spoilers and rumors tease that Ava questions Austin after Sonny gives a warning. According to recent GH previews, Sonny tells Ava that she’s in bed with the enemy. And the look on her face is worth a thousand words. Although she is fond of Austin, I don’t think that she fully trusts him anyway. How is she going to react when she discovers that he has know that Nikolas was alive this whole time?
It’s been almost two full months since General Hospital star John J. York revealed that he would take a break from his role as Mac Scorpio due to a recent diagnosis.
Previously, General Hospital news and spoilers reports revealed York’s announcement. That’s when John J. York addressed his recent medical diagnoses, which lead him to reveal that he suffers from two blood and bone marrow disorders. Those disorders are myelodysplastic syndromes, or MDS, and multiple smoldering myeloma, two blood and bone marrow disorders.”
York’s announcement brought fans together in support for the search for a bone marrow match. In his announcement, the GH vet gave information on how we could become potential donors. Moreover, it wasn’t just his fans that displayed immense support for York. His friend Jon Lindstrom reached out to the world via social media, sharing donor information. Then, soon after, John announced that they had found a match! Fast forward two months and his friend and co-star John Lindstrom updated fans on his prognosis.
John York Health Update
General Hospital spoilers reveal that it’s a big week for GH’s Mac Scorpio, aka his portrayer, John J. York. The actor took to social media to ask fans to send “healing thoughts” as York faces a “big week.”
Adam Wright (Joshua Benard) made quite a first impression on Josslyn Jacks. It wasn’t necessarily a good first impression, but it was an impression alright. Adam first approached Josslyn with ill-intentions, and she quickly out him in his place. Then, he apologized after he realized the severity of the situation and how it effected Joss.
First, Adam got caught up in the viral revenge porn video that Esme (Avery Kristen Pohl) and sent out to the entire campus. The nature of the video fueled its viral status, and also ignited something in Adam. That’s when he made his misogynistic comments to Josslyn about her and Cameron’s sex video. At the time, he didn’t know that it was unintentional and that it was deemed revenge porn. Then, Josslyn explained that she was indeed a victim, and from then on she and Adam became friends.
According to General Hospital spoilers, Adam takes his friendship with Josslyn to another level. But it might be a while before he openly admits that he wants her as more than a friend. Instead, GH spoilers and rumors tease that he keeps his intentions to himself for the time being. But even though Adam hasn’t revealed his true intentions, his behavior raises suspicions.
General Hospital spoilers Dex warns Josslyn about Adam. Apparently, GH fans aren’t the only ones who think that there’s something off about Adam. He’s troubled and Josslyn is too close to the fire.
Devastation and loss seem to have come in surplus lately as the General Hospital community suffers great heartache. From Sonya Eddy to Jackie Zeman, Billy Miller to Tyler Christopher- and more in between, it’s undoubtedly been a hard year.
According to General Hospital news reports, sadness continues to loom over the GH community. Just 6 short days after Tyler Christopher’s death, another loss hits close to home. For General Hospital star Eden McCoy, everyone else’s “close to home,” is her actual home. Sadly, Eden McCoy mourns her mother’s death.
GH news and spoilers reveal that Eden became very vulnerable in her public, emotional message. The young star shared the news via Instagram, which she referred to as, “the most impersonal space.” Her post contains a picture of her mother, along with another picture consisting of Eden and her parents.
Eden’s touching message not only displays her pure love for her mom, but she also puts things into perspective. I can somewhat relate to Eden as she grieves for her mother. When I was pregnant with my first child, my mom passed away suddenly. As it turns it, she had Acute Myeloid Leukemia, and she died within two days of going to the ER. Although not all situations are the same, the pain of losing a mother is uniform. According to Eden’s post, her mom suffered a two and half year battle with cancer. No matter how you look at it, losing a mother hits different regardless of how it happened.
I recommend you you read Eden’s beautiful tribute to her mother. The images and words shared can be seen below. Please keep Eden and her family in your prayers.
How much pain and agony can Laura Spencer (Genie Francis) face? It seems like many of us focus on the hardship of certain characters while overlooking those of others. I’m not sure of that’s totally true in this case, but from what I’ve witnessed, it could.
Undeniably, General Hospital fans went crazy over everything Sasha Gilmore (Sofia Mattsson) went through. Gladys and Dr. Montague’s stunt was the last straw as fans demanded justice for Sasha. She’d suffered to major human losses, and lost her own freedoms while entrusting it to Gladys. As if that wasn’t enough, then her own mother-in-law sold her dead husband’s garage from under her nose. Naturally, Gladys Corbin has to pay off her gambling debts somehow. So, why not sell what belonged to Brando (Johnny Wactor)? That’s just how Greedy Gladys thinks. Next, she stole Sasha’s money to pay off even more, and hired a creepy doctor to keep her drugged and unfit to look over her own finances. Sadly, this scheme almost kicked Sasha, but Cody (Josh Kelly) and crew print into action, and you know the rest.
If we go back in time, it’s clear that Sasha isn’t the only damsel who has been distressed beyond the norm. Laura Spencer, among others, carry that reputation as well. However, as the years go on, Laura continues to feel loss and heartache. Not to mention she was also held captive in her day. General Hospital spoilers reveal that Port Charles is shaken to its core after Anna shot Charlotte Cassadine (Scarlett Fernandez).
Lately, Lulu Spencer’s (Emme Rylan) has been named-dropped quote often. Typically, when a character is mentioned time and again, over the course of some time, they tend to make their way back to the scene.
In Port Charles, a young life is in jeopardy as the doctors over at General Hospital work tirelessly to save a gunshot victim. Charlotte Cassadine (Scarlett Fernandez) was struck by Anna Devane’s (Finola Hughes) bullet. Stunned and devastated, Anna must face what she’s done.
According to General Hospital previews, Anna and Jake Webber rush to Charlotte’s aid as Anna’s world spins like a never ending ride on the Gravitron. How will she ever explain this to Valentin Cassadine (James Patrick Stuart)? From the looks of things, emotions run high between Anna and Valentin. Expectedly, the incident sparks ambivalent feelings between Anna and Valentin. General Hospital spoilers tease that the incident sparks ambivalent feelings between Anna and Valentin. That’s when Anna slaps Valentin! This leads me to wonder what would lead her to slap him, unless he confesses that he’s known Charlotte was her stalker the entire time?
Will Charlotte Survive Anna’s Bullet?
As we know, Valentin lied to Anna for months, while keeping this secret about Charlotte. If only he would have come forward with truth, maybe his daughter’s life wouldn’t be in the line. Now, Anna faces the guilt of shooting a child. Charlotte isn’t just any child. Instead, she is the daughter of the man she loves. Of course,
Maurice Benard honors Tyler Christopher in State of Mind Tribute
The daytime television world was shaken to its core when the Emmy winning, General Hospital and Days Of Our Lives star, Tyler Christopher died suddenly. He was only 50 years old. Recently, he had bravely opened up about his life and the hardships that he faced due to mental illness and addiction.
Previously reported, GH Blog shared the news after General Hospital’s Maurice Benard broke the devastating news via social media. General Hospital news reports confirmed that Tyler Christopher died on October 31st, 2023.
As the community mourned Tyler’s passing, many took the opportunity to spread mental health awareness. Particularly, Tyler’s friend and former co-star Maurice Benard. Tyler joined Benard on his YouTube series, State of Mind, and discussed mental illness, addictions and other life experiences and struggles. Tyler’s vulnerability and strength were transparent in his interview as his darkest hours were aired for all to learn.
General Hospital news and spoilers reveal that Maurice has re-aired Tyler Christopher’s State of Mind episode. Additionally, Maurice Benard honors Tyler Christopher in a State of Mind tribute.
For the full interview, make sure to check out Maurice’s State of Mind interview with Tyler Christopher. I think that I’ve watched it four times now. Twice before Tyler’s unexpected passing, and twice hereafter.
Please continue to keep Tyler’s family in your prayers as they process the news and grieve for their loss.
If you know anyone who shows signs of mental illness and addiction, do your best to be what that person needs. Never kick someone when they’re down, and always extend a kind word. It could save a life. Please spread mental health awareness!
