Kiki Jerome Recast

General Hospital News…

As fans come to terms with the fact that Kristen Alderson has decided to leave General Hospital, it was inevitable that the role of Kiki Jerome would have to be recast. Kiki is too involved in current story lines to just have the character killed off the show or move away. Also, Kristen Alderson has already taped her final episode, which would leave no time to develop a story for the character’s demise.

TPTB moved quite quickly in hiring the new actress to play Kiki Jerome. The Young and the Restless star (Abby, 2008-2010), Hayley Erin will take on the role and step into Kristen Alderson’s shoes.

General Hospital Blog sends well wishes to Kristen in her life’s new direction! Kristen as been part of the ABC Network since she was 6 years old. Her role as Starr Manning on ABC’s One Life to Live has left a lasting impression with soap fans everywhere. We also welcome Hayley with open arms to the GH family.

What are your thoughts regarding this recast?

Tristan Rogers Entertains the Idea of Returning to General Hospital

This past year, ABC’s General Hospital and CBS’ The Young and the Restless seem to be having fun playing a good game of actor swap. From Maura West to Steve Burton, 2014 was full of exchanging stars from one soap to the other.

Tristan Rogers is yet another daytime star that has bounced from Y&R to GH from time to time. Although the actor, and GH legendary character Robert Scorpio is currently away from GH as he plays Colin on Y&R, there is hope that he will be able to work out a deal that allows him to take part in both daytime dramas. Rogers just signed on with The Young and the Restless for another year, but that doesn’t necessarily mean that he cannot appear on General Hospital as Robert Scorpio.

Rogers expressed via Twitter that the issue regarding being able to appear on GH while still under contract with Y&R has yet to be resolved. That being said, it is highly possible that the two networks are ironing out an agreement to let Tristan Rogers return to General Hospital while he is also playing Colin on Y&R.

Rogers’ character, Robert Scorpio would fit perfectly into current story lines over in Port Charles. The identity of Fluke is about to be revealed, which Luke and Robert have a long history with each other. Also, Robin, Robert’s daughter, is still being held by Helena Cassadine. General Hospital rumors have indicated the return of Robin Scorpio in the near future. What better timing for dear old dad to return as well, right?

Let us know if you’d be excited to see Tristan Rogers reprise his role as Robert Scorpio on General Hospital. Comment below!

Zachary Garred’s Possible Return As One Of GH’s Most Hated Villains!

General Hospital has had many villains come an go over the decades. However, not many of them made such an impact as the more recent villain that swept into Port Charles unannounced, caused quite a stir with not only the GH audience, but also on-screen with the other General Hospital characters. The residents in Port Charles new there was something very off about Maxie Jones’ (Kirsten Storms) new friend. She brought him back home with her after she went on her Eat, Pray, Love, journey of self discovery. She was totally under his spell. Maximista was no longer a fashionista, but she was an anti-meat eating, inner spirit seeking, yogi. Levi Dunkleman caused some serious reactions with GH fans and friends and family of Maxie.

In his time away from General Hospital, Zachary continued his acting career with taking part in a Christmas film auditioning, and guest starring on a few TV series.

A couple months back, the executives over at General Hospital sent out a tweet to actor, Zachary Garred, telling him that they wanted to call him back for some time a GH, but unfortunately, he was back in Australia at that time.

In recent GH news, General Hospital spoilers reveal that actor Zachary Garred hopes that his character, Levi Dunkleman aka Peter Harrell can return to the canvas. His death was sort of left open-ended. Although Maxie thinks that Levi was dead, with all the craziness that goes on, it is uncertain whether or not he will turn up alive.

Would you want to see Levi come back to General Hospital? Let us know by leaving your comments and opinions.

Kelly Monaco Interview: “I’m Glad They Put Me In Jason’s Arms”

Kelly has played the beautiful, strong, sensitive woman, Samantha McCall since 2003. Immediately after debuting as the scuba diving bad-ass con-artist, she won the hearts of GH fans everywhere. Sam is one tough cookie with a whole lot heart. Sam’s epic love story with Jason Morgan (then Steve Burton) will live on forever.

In this must-read ‘On Air Soaps with Michael Fairman’ interview with Kelly Monaco, Kelly tells Michael and the fans all about working with Steve Burton, Jason Thompson, and Billy Miller.

When Kelly was asked by Michael Fairman about “Samtrick” which is the ship name for Sam and Patrick as a couple, Kelly had many good things to say about this pairing on and off screen. Monaco explains to Michael that she and Jason Thompson have been fighting for a Patrick and Sam pairing for a very long time. They two are great friends outside of the workplace and have a real trust and bond between the two of them. Michael Fairman asked Kelly:

MICHAEL:

Let’s talk about Samtrick.  When they said we are going to pair you with Jason Thompson and try to broach a romance between Patrick and Sam, once they had established their friendship, what were your thoughts on that?   Were you at all worried it wouldn’t play?

Samtrick fans will love her heartwarming response…

KELLY:

“Jason and I have been fighting for that for a long time, since Steve Burton left, basically.  We were in New York like a year and half ago, and we went up to Ron Carlivati’s (head writer, GH) office and the writers over at General Hospital.  We both sat there and we’re like “Well?”  And they said, “No, not yet.  You guys are friends,” meaning, of course, our characters on the show we’re friends.  Jason and I were like, “Just try it!”  And lo and behold, I don’t know when they decided, but here is it is, and I love it.  Jason Thompson is my friend in real life, and he’s my family.  So it’s really great working with him – it’s fresh and new, and we hadn’t had the opportunity to interact like that on-screen before.  There is a trust there that you can make out on-screen, or whatever.  I am not taking anything away from Michael Easton.  I have known him for 15 years, but if they were going to shift me and put me somewhere, I am glad they put me in Jason’s arms.”

We want to know, what are your thoughts about Sam and Patrick as a new hot couple? Does Sam belong with Jason, or is the time finally right to move on with someone else? Are you #TeamJaSam or #TeamSamtrick?

Rosalie’s Secret

The mystery of Rosalie’s big secret has been weighing on our minds for several months. Every time it seems like we were getting closer to the revelation, Rosalie would disappear from the canvas and we were left hanging time and time again. Now more than ever, General Hospital story lines seem to take an eternity to evolve and conclude. In the past year, stories have been written so that they linger on due to the fact that they are completely on hiatus and are not revisited for weeks at a time. That is absolutely what has happened with Rosalie’s secret. The writers at GH seem to be “taking turns” with the characters. Some characters will be up front and center for quite some time and then suddenly vanish from our screens. These characters are not written off the show, but rather just set aside for a later date. Most recently we have experienced this with Felicia’s election story line. It had been literally two months since this story commenced. 

This week on General Hospital, we were finally able to get closer to Rosalie’s secret. She confessed to Michael that she isn’t actually a nurse. That she and Nina have been pretending that Rosalie is certified to care for others and give them medical attention as a nurse. If that didn’t seem juicy enough, there is definitely more to the story. Although it hasn’t come out of Rosalie’s mouth directly, it is safe to assume that Rosalie has a connection to Helena. Helena mentioned that she has someone on the inside working for ELQ that was getting hired on the spot. As the scene cut over, Michael and Rosalie were in a discussion about her starting to work for him. So is this part of Rosalie’s big secret? Rosalie is working for Helena and is going to help Helena take over ELQ from the inside. What more does Helena have up her sleeve for Rosalie? 

Do you think there is more to this story? Does Rosalie’s secret go deeper than being Helena’s employee? Share your thoughts in the comment section!
