General Hospital News: GH Debuts Sneak Peek Of Poolside Set At The Metrocourt

The Quartermaine mansion, The Corinthos family home, Maxie’s (Kirsten Storms) apartment, The Savoy, Kelly’s, and General Hospital itself are just a few of the main sets we as GH fans see, and that have become staples around Port Charles.

Every now and then, General Hospital will redecorate a set or two, or introduce an entirely new set.

According to TV Insider, General Hospital news and spoilers reveal, Executive Producer, Frank Valentini has made an announcement regarding the latest set change on General Hospital.
GH is very excited to announce the opening of The Metro Court Pool and Spa — the place to see and be seen this summer for all the heat and drama.”

Under the direction of Frank Valentini, set designers Jennifer Elliot and Andrew Evashchen were to make the poolside set as realistic as possible. Valentini wanted the actors to be able to actually get into the pool, which required the design of the pool to be made deeper than normal for a TV set. Evashchen told TV Insider, “It’s about three feet deep,” this allows for the set to look more believable which was Valentini’s main goal.

Evashchen disclosed some intricate details to building the set, “We lined [the water tanks] with a certain material that’s like a bed liner for trucks. It works really well for pools. It’s durable and watertight. We chose a specific blue that Frank really liked and had the pool sprayed and sealed in that color.”

GH’s Eden McCoy had great things to say about the new set, as she has filmed some scenes poolside, along with co-star William Lipton. Josslyn and Cam will be spending time there in this Summer heat. McCoy told TV Insider, “It’s so much fun to work in this set, “I haven’t gone fully into the pool yet, but they keep it warm for us. It feels different taping in this set, very relaxed. Shawn Reeves (Wardrobe) has been styling us with these cute bathing suits and new wardrobe. McCoy also disclosed that this set will be around for quite a while since they have already begun filming episodes that will air in September, and the set is still being used.

General Hospital spoilers reveal the set will be unveiled on the Thursday, July 15th episode of GH.

General Hospital Spoilers: Nina Has Her First Encounter With Carly

Nina Reeves (Cynthia Watros) just received some good news that frankly, she doesn’t deserve. With persuasion from Jax (Ingo Rademacher), Michael Corinthos (Chad Duell) called Nina to let her know he is willing to allow her to visit his son, and Nina’s grandson, Wiley.

Nina rushed backed to Port Charles at the chance to see and build a relationship with Wiley. General Hospital spoilers reveal Nina has to answer to Carly Corinthos (Laura Wright) when it comes to the grandson they share.

General Hospital previews show Nina’s first encounter with Carly since Nina skipped town and landed in Nixon Falls. Nina left to clear her head after feeling betrayed by Jax and Carly, after they kept her in the dark about Nelle Benson (Chloe Lanier) being her long lost daughter.

General Hospital spoilers reveal carly is cordial with Nina, which is more than Nina deserves.

Nina has done some major damage to the Corinthos family by discovering Sonny is alive and never having the courtesy to put his family out of mourning. Not only has she kept this secret, but she has betrayed Sonny in more ways than one. Let’s start with how she has led him on, and now they’ve both developed feelings for one another, knowing damn well that he is a happily married man. Nina would never stand a chance with a man like Sonny if it weren’t for his amnesia.

General Hospital rumors indicate that time is near for Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard) to make his way home to PC, without knowing PC is his home. Although Nina’s first encounter with Carly won’t be volatile, what’s coming Nina’s way will be everything she deserves and more. No one crosses Carly and Sonny without paying for it.
