The Davis Girls Stick Together

Kristina (Lindsey Morgan) is coming home to PC in just a few days, and now more than ever will The Davis Girls really need each other. Sam disclosed her deep secret about Franco and the baby to Molly, and like any good sister, Molly was there for Sam to listen and comfort. Haley Pullos is such a good actress and is just so lovable. She brings innocence and intelligence to Molly which is something fresh for a child character. It makes me happy that Molly isn’t a snotty, bratty, defiant little child. It is nice to see a well behaved teen on a soap. (Except for sneaking around with TJ, but that isn’t so bad). Hopefully Molly’s current actions with TJ won’t go any further than what they have. So let’s leave the bad girl image to her sister Kristina! We know that Kristina has done things in the past just to get under Sonny’s skin and to get his attention. Now that she is back from college, she will be more defiant than ever. This trouble maker will need the love and support of her sisters, and I am sure Sam will have to intervene in some arguments between Alexis and Kristina. I am really excited to see these girls working together in their upcoming story lines. Alexis, Kristina, and Molly will be able to help Sam through this rough time because that’s what the Davis Girls do!

Nancy Lee Grahn Tweets on Recast of Kristina Davis

The twitter world of General Hospital has been buzzing all night ever since the news came out regarding the recasting of GH character Kristina Davis (Corinthos). Previously played by Lexi Ainsworth, the role has now been filled by Lindsey Morgan. GH fans are on opposite ends of the spectrum, some cursing Frank Valentini and Ron Carlivati for any input they may have had to recast this role. Others are happy for whatever is to come and have embraced the changes at General Hospital. According to Daytime Emmy winner, GH Actress Nancy Lee Grahn, Lexi Ainsworth did not want to commit to the role and sign a contract. Check out Nancy’s Tuesday night Tweet!

GH Casting News Kristina Davis to be Played by Lindsey Morgan

Now that I have had time to process the casting news, I have been able to rationalize and although I am truly disappointed in the fact that Lexi Ainsworth will not be entertaining us as Kristina on GH, it is unfair to not give the new actress a chance. I will try to stay positive because I know supporting General Hospital is imperative to it’s survival. I will always be a GH fan and therefore I would rather have aspects of the show that I am unhappy with than not have the show at all. That being said, I hope all of us GH fans can find it in our hearts to accept the things we are not 100% behind for the sake of the show in it’s entirety. I want to thank @HaleyJean45 for helping me put things into perspective. We as fans all need to stick together no matter what decisions are made, even if that means our favorite couple calls it quits or our favorite character becomes something they never were. I wish the best of luck to Lexi Ainsworth in her future endeavors and to Lindsey Morgan on her new role as Kristina Davis Corinthos.

GH News: Lindsey Morgan Cast as New Kristina Davis Corinthos!

As a fan of Lexi Ainsworth and her portrayal on Kristina, I don’t really agree with Kristina needing to look older or more mature. This isn’t specific to Kristina either. I just don’t feel that a character needs to be changed simply to age them. However, Lindsey Morgan looks  a lot like Ainsworth, just older. I am worried she looks too close in age to Kelly Monaco (Sam). Sam is supposed to be Kristina’s older, wiser, more experienced sister and Lindsey Morgan (to play Kristina) looks more mature than Ainsworth which in my opinion may interfere with the fact that Sam is much older than her little sis. Grahn, Monaco, Ainsworth, and Pullos were perfect together and it’s always hard for me to get accustomed to change, but that’s just me. I do think that Ms. Morgan will end up pulling off a stellar Kristina just like other new actors have pulled off replacing other characters. It was hard for me when Tamara Braun left as Carly and Laura Wright eventually took over, and when Maxie was taken over by Jen. Needless to say these women took charge and made these roles their own and made me love them! Good luck to Lindsey Morgan, the GH and Kristina fans welcome her to the canvas.
