Kelly Monaco reported on Facebook that Tony Geary was in the audience for her Peep Show in Vegas last night.
And there’s casting news: Mayor Floyd is getting a wife! Read on SOS all about ATWT alum Martha Byrne joining GH. Ok, so this chick looks JUST like Olivia in a way. Now we’ll have Olivia, Carly, Sam, Liz…Claudia…Alexis, Diane, this lady. Why MAYOR FLOYD? Is he going to be a big crime fighter now? Is the story finally coming out HE’S ‘Mr. BIG”?? AND SHE PLAYED LILY on ATWT. Is that ironic? LOL. She’d better NOT BE FOR SONNY! Why would they bump down RH’s hours and do this? Why don’t they let JZ have more airtime…or LC for that matter? How come OLTL can have Vicky and Dorian have romance? Ok, I’ll shut up. OY!
Question from the peanut gallery: anyone know? I’m not even sure it’s a real condition? It could be something the writers dreamed up. I will google it later. Karla said: Is it FVL ?
I need some help. I need to know the name of the disease that Carly has which
would prevent her from carrying her baby to term. It has something to do with
with blood clots forming that could cause a stroke or worse. Please help.
Thanks.
OLTL today: I love Scott Clifton. I so do. I also think they need to make he and Rex brothers. They are so much alike! STACEY …grrrrrrrrrrrrrr. dang it. “You trying to quit me Cowboy”?? And Rex waving around the bag o’ blood! hee hee. Roxy pulling the plug. She had an internet download on how to Pull The Plug. LOL. Rex/Gigi breaking my heart. wahhh. Todd and Vicky are so cute!
Rebecca: Rebecca Lewis… for all purposes was Todd’s first love and at the time, and was
a factor to a degree when they first attempted to redeem him. She was also
engaged to Powell Lord one of the other men that raped Marty, when he went all
crazy.
Wow, I watched back then and don’t remember her. That was long ago. Bringing back someone from that far back is a gamble isn’t it? I sure think so.
GENERAL HOSPITAL:
OMG! Don’t freak out over the HOLLY/CASSADINE RUMOR! it’s a RUMOR!!!!! The writers probably don’t even know what’s happening next month let alone this summer…all the long term arcs I’ve gotten have gone bust anyway. It’s like they sit around, put stuff out there and then go in a whole other direction!
Olivia walks in on Claudia/Ric. Look at her, she looks like that Martha lady up there! Put Alexis in there and we’ll have everone all a twitter. Olivia and Claudia will kill each other if given a chance. LOL.
GIANT MICHAEL alert. He also looks JUST LIKE JASON! I’m sorry but he could be a kid of his!
Carly…Jason. POOR JAX! He’s so nice to her! So sad. AND SONNY has to come in…sigh.
MONICA ALERT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! With Jason! Love her and he together! Maxie and Jason. LOL. She’s like so selfish and but so cute. Gabbing away to Jason and he wakes up..and grabs her back. hee hee.
Life is so much better when GH is shot IN THE HOSPITAL! IN THE HOSPITAL! Anyone else notice all the vending machines they have in the background? Hope they have HEALTHY snacks in there!
Patrick needs to get off Robin’s back, I mean, I’d be yelling at GH all over for stupid stairs!! MAC DADDY ALERT! Love the sweater JJY has on. KELLY!@ isn’t that a no-no about telling Patrick about her meds? Maybe not if she signed a consent form for Patrick.
WHAT THE HELL is the POINT OF LIZ AND NIK? grrrrrrrrr. what is it? Nik’s suit is SUPER shiny!
Maxie and Spin hug..aww.
INTERVENTION TIME! Robin’s getting the A&E treatment!
The SHOW Today was pretty good!
I LOVE JELLY BELLY’S!!!!!!!!!! Popcorn, tangerine..yummmmmy. rootbeer! 🙂
IT’S NINETY HERE! 90…see, we go from freezing cold to HOT cha’cha in a nano-second!
“I hope they have healthy snacks in the vending machines”
They’re probably filled with Campbell’s Heart Healthy soups and V8 fusion juice.
Hasn’t Nikolas learned from history that when Cassadine men start to obsess over women it never turns out good for them? Especially when a Spencer is involved. He should just ask his father and uncle.. oh right.. they’re both dead LOL
I was a huge fan of the Cassadines and this show was actually must-see-TV for me during 2000 and 2001, even if the whole Stavros thing was campy. Atleast Sonny and the mob were on the backburner somewhat. I hate how they got rid of Stefan… and I hate how they just totally wasted the great Constance Towers last week. Helena should be doing more that propping up Luke’s latest lame storyline.
But Nikolas has just become so annoying. I’ve been bored with the character for awhile and if TC ever wants to leave, they should kill Nikolas off(or he’s presumed dead), bring Genie Francis back and have Laura fight Helena for the custody of Spencer. That would be a storyline worthy of both actresses.
I LOVE Martha Byrne, I was so upset she left ATWT, that I stopped watching it. She may look similar to Olivia, but she is totally a different, talented actress, good addition, if she only gets some decent writing. Now all the need is Gina Tognoni, she could be a great re-cast for Brenda!
Ah, hello! If that is Holly’s birth certificate it would make her only 44. I’m sorry but does that mean she was only around 18 when she hooked up with Luke and Robert? She’s got to be around the same age as Laura (I don’t care how much plastic surgery she’s had – chronologically it doesn’t make sense)
Then again, LuLu should be the same age as my son – 15 LOL
By the way I showed my hubby the pix of Holly with the long hair. He is convinced that it’s another actress and that we dont’ know what we’re talking about. 🙂
I loved Maxie. KS is so wonderful. She looked so sad when Spinelli hugged her. It almost broke my heart. Gee, a character who is multi-faceted. Imagine that!
As for Robin, she is in some serious denial. I think everyone is afraid to step on Robin’s toes because of her temper tantrums. Major control freak. And Kelly isn’t Robin’s doctor so confidentiallity isn’t a problem there.
Poor Jax and Carly… it makes me sad.
Claudia and Olivia, whatever. You could play a drinking game and the line would be, “Get out of my house!”
Michael should look somewhat like Jason, he’s his nephew.
I haven’t been called a peanut since 4h grade. I am 5ft nine and 200 pounds. A peanut I am not-Goober, maybe.
Carly’s illness is ZBT (although I wasn’t sure they weren’t saying CBT until I read the transcript). It’s a made-up illness* so the writers can do whatever they want. (Although they seem to be doing great at messing up/making a mockery of/ the real disorder of PPD)
*There _are_ real clotting disorders that can affect pregnant women, but this one isn’t one of them.
I would have been hilarious if they made up a disorder called CBT because that is a psychological treatment called Cognitive Behvior Therapy, so that every time I heard it I would have been cracking up!
yes, i guess Jason is his uncle because he’s AJ’s after all! I tend to forget that sad fact!
V8 juice in the vending machines. heh
Missed all soaps today. Was gonna say I am QueenPeng #2 – and not watch GH – but I think after reading Karen’s update – I must watch!!! I’ll skip the goody-two shoe scenes.
Ocean Park ‘girl, it was surprisingly “fast paced” today and the hospital was humming.
You do have to endure the stroller whipping down the stairs again but what the hey.
Martha Byrne has been a script writer for B&B since earlier this year. SOD is also confirming her job at GH. She’s a very talented actress with 8 Emmy nominations and 2 wins. I think her hiring is a major coup. (Interesting note: she’s 39 and John Bolger who plays Mayor Floyd is 55.)
I heard the illness as ZBT too… I decided to name it Zooper Baby Tragediosis. I loved Monica talking to Jason. And then Maxie starts poking him while she is yammerin away. I busted out laughing when he grabbed her and she yelped. They gave a half hearted PSA type dialog about the dangers of head injuries even hours or days after the incident. A nice thing to do considering the tragic loss of Natasha Richardson so recently. Did anyone else notice how Epiphany hasn’t been so witchy lately? I thought her reactions and all were far more normal and helpful than her crankiness when the hospital first reopened. I love seeing Mac with little Emma, such cuteness!
Carly to Jason “I have to avoid stress so could you try not to get blown up again in the next 9 months” PRICELESS!!
OLTL Note – for anyone who is/was a BethAnn Bonner (Talia) fan there is some good news. She has a new role, although short term, on Guilding Light and starts airing in early June.
I agree with those who are happy about Martha Byrne. She was great on As the World Turns. I think she more or less grew up on that show, played Lily for a couple of decades. She also played Lily’s twin Rose for 3 or 4 years, who actually sounded like Olivia does. But I totally agree with you about how little sense her new part makes. The Mayor’s wife? What?
I like the updates about who is going to Sam’s strip show. Luke and Spin so far, right? Have there been other? If Jason goes, I’ll eat my shoe.
I am really enjoying the Claudia and Olivia show. They are well matched. I loved it when Olivia said that when Sonny figured out everything he would kick Claudia out on her skanky butt so fast she wouldn’t have time to pack a toothbrush. I laughed so hard. Go Olivia. I’m liking her more everyday.
Why are they giving Mayor Floyd a love interest at all? He’s a total jerk! That poor woman!
I’m not getting too concerned about MB coming to GH – it might be for a few scenes where she has to react. Maybe Floyd is the one who buys it this summer.
Olivia I LOVE. She’s a woman who can keep Sonny in line.
And I’ve got to say, the show just keeps getting better and better and I’m convinced the writers have listened and have changed things around for a reason. Sam talking about the Sperminator the other day, Carly asking Jason not to get blown to bits for 9 months, Monica saying Jason has been in and out of the ER so often she’s immune, Mac being at GH to actually work… it’s happening. It’s improving.
Awww, man, Ocean Park Girl, “was gonna to say I am QueenPeng #2”, that is only one original QueenPeng (that’s me!!) LOL, love your comment tho. Glad to hear that you will skip the skank scenes, heard that she is getting alot of airtime for the next few weeks. Hope that Hells comes back and finds out what happens and does her job, she hasn’t killed anybody in a long time that I know of.
Ummm, a murder mystery, well, I can think that one character that needs to be killed off the show, alas, that won’t happen. If it has to be somebody, let it be Kate. Geez, the show is getting rid of Ric Hearst, really bad move on their part. See, that is why I don’t watch the show anymore, featuring characters (actors and actresses) that can’t act at all while they have a stable full of excellent actors and actresses that has a rich character history. It’s Guza messed up world, natch!!
I thought the same thing about the new Michael…..that he looks so much like Jason. I thought that was pretty good casting considering he is Jason’s nephew and could look like him.
We had bad weather here and several power failures, on and off, all day and night. Dang it. I missed all of GH right when the intervention started. Lori! I laughed so hard I hurt myself when I read your name for Carly’s condition! I had to go back and read it twice more. SOOOOOO funny!
I also like Martha Byrne very much. She’s beyond talented, very natural.
