John J. York first entered the General Hospital canvas about 23 years ago in 1991. His character, Mac Scorpio has many Port Charles connections including, Robert Scorpio, Frisco Jones, Felicia Jones, Robin Scorpio Drake, Maxie Jones, and more. Mac is definitely a fan favorite. He is the good guy, the warm hearted father and uncle that everyone just wants to hug. Mac has always been there for Robin, Maxie, and the late Georgie, and is consistently trying to steer those girls into the right direction. Recently, Mac had been trying to convince Maxie that Levi is no good for her. He has changed her from the inside, and not in a good, self growth kind of way. Maxie didn’t see it that way, as she met Levi when she was very vulnerable. She was down and out about losing custody of her daughter, baby Georgie, to Georgie’s father, Spinelli. She thought Levi helped her through her dark days, when in actuality, he was creating more sorrow and misfortune in her life. Maxie learned her lesson when on her wedding day, Levi was exposed for the scheming con artist he really is. Levi was out to get Felicia’s Aztec jewels and he used Maxie to get there. Many fans have been questioning an even deeper motive that Levi may have for reeking havoc on the residents of Port Charles. Fans also want to know who he is connected to, and who his father is. In a recent interview with Michael Fairman, John J. York touches on some of those concerns.
In the interview, Michael Fairman flat out asks York if he thinks that Levi is Mac’s son. John J. York replied, “I don’t thinks so, but it would be crazy if he was. How ironic if Levi is a little mysterious rogue kind of pirate like Mac was when he first came on the show.” Levi being Mac’s son just wouldn’t mesh well with the story. Levi seems like pure evil and Mac is a good guy. Unless Levi is a disgruntled, long lost child…
John J. York went on about how much he likes actor Zachary Garred (Levi Dunkleman). In regards to the backlash Garred has been receiving from fans about his character, Levi, York said, “I love the story, and I love Zachary. He’s great! You have to embrace the bad guy, and he got a lot of flack from fans at first. Many people for hundreds of years have gone through that. Some people didn’t like Susan Lucci when she played the more villainess side of Erica Kane on All My Children. So there is that love/hate thing, but Zachary is awesome.”
That “fake” Australian accent has been a hot topic on social media among fans. We know that Levi’s portrayer, Zachary Garred is in fact Australian, so therefore his accent is real. But on the show, the character has been pretending to have an Australian accent, and when he revealed his true colors, the accent was dropped. Michael Fairman pointed out that when Mac first arrived in Port Charles, he too had an Australian accent. “That’s right … Mac did too! So there are a lot of things that are going to be surprises coming up!” York responded.
At the end of a very dramatic episode of General Hospital on August 14th, it was revealed that Levi Dunkleman is indeed a dangerous conman. He has been working Maxie to get closer to Felicia’s priceless Aztec jewels. His Australian accent that he has been sporting since he arrived in Port Charles has been a fake this entire time. Just as Maxie and Levi were about to say I do, his plan was foiled when Dante and Nathan busted up the ceremony and exposed Dunkleman for the scheming slime he really is.
As much as Dante and Nathan tried, they just couldn’t diffuse the situation. Levi had Maxie at gunpoint, and just as Dante stepped in to aid Nathan in taking Dunkleman down, Levi’s immigration officer surprised us all as he grabbed Lulu at gunpoint. He and Levi are accomplices and managed leave with best friends, Maxie and Lulu as their hostages. Nathan said to Maxie, “I will find you!” Even though PCPD Detectives Falconeri and West were unable to get their ladies out of the hostage situation, they have every intention of doing whatever it takes to get them home to their families safely.
In recent General Hospital rumors, it has been said that Levi pays a visit to Victor Cassadine. Will Lulu be reacquainted with Stavros Cassadine? What business might Levi and Victor have together? Does this situation have a connection with the Fluke story? Levi is definitely in Port Charles for more than some Aztec jewels!
Leave a comment and let us know where you think this story will lead.
Last week we got to see Milo Giambetti catch up with old boss, Sonny Corinthos. He confided in him about his complicated love life. He told Sonny that the person he has his sights set on is someone his father may not approve of. Later, he went to his pal Felix and disclosed that he has feelings for none other than, Head Nurse, Epiphany Johnson. Now that Milo is back, big brother Max Giambetti will be showing up shortly as well. Derk Cheetwood will be returning to General Hospital this week! Will Max have a new love interest, or will he try to rekindle the flame with Diane Miller?
Looking forward to Heading Back To Port Charles Next week for a few days, Stay Tuned as I'm sure shenanigans will ensue! #GH
Congratulations to YouTube user OOjinx! This fan has created a video displaying the romantic moments between a very hot couple! Patrick (Jason Thomspon) and Sabrina (Teresa Castillo) are featured in this music montage.
Even if you aren’t a Patrina fan, you will love this video! Well done, OOjinx!
Twitter is an amazing tool that helps people reach out to one another. General Hospital executives aren’t shy about speaking out to fans using this form of social media. After the airing of today’s General Hospitla episode, GH Head Writer, Ron Carlivati sent out a tweet regarding the substance of tomorrow’s episode, Friday, August 15th. Can we say Cliffhanger Friday?
Is Mac going to survive? What is going to happen with Maxie and Lulu? Will Levi and his accomplice get away? What does Levi really want, and who is he working for? How deep does his operation actually run. Do you think Levi has any connection to fake Luke, aka Fluke? And Is Fluke connected to the evil Cassadine family that is about to be defrosted?
There are so many possibilities with this exciting story. Make sure you stay tuned to General Hospital to find out what direction all this will go.
Check out Carlivati’s tweet!
Fair warning: Tomorrow's episode of @GeneralHospital is going to be EPIC. #GH
No everyone, I am not just talking about that disaster of a hideous wedding dress! (Which Kirsten actually looked gorgeous in anyways). I am talking about what happened to poor Maxie on her wedding day. But really, did we expect anything else? First of all, this is Port Charles, it is very rare that a wedding goes off without a snag. Secondly, we all knew Levi was a con artist, but what we didn’t know is how dangerous and determined to get those Aztec jewels that he really is. Even his immigration officer is a fake! Who saw that one coming? Now that Levi has Maxie, and the immigration officer has Lulu at gun point, will Dante and Nathan be able to save their women from these evil sleeze bags?
This raises a very important question… who are they working for? In a previous article, we mentioned that actor Zachary Garred) told Michael Fairman in an interview, that his father is someone who has ties to Port Charles. Can you take a guess as to who that might be? Perhaps the Aztec jewels are a small portion of a very large operation. Some say his Father is the one and only ‘James Craig’ aka Jerry Jacks. What do you think? Let us know by sharing and commenting!
Nobody saw it coming. The quiet, sweet kid with the sociopathic father, and a vampire loving mother. His Father is gone, he watched his mother get murdered before his eyes. Sam Morgan adopted Rafe and made him part of her family. He fell in love with her sister, Molly, but her feelings were not reciprocated. His uncle Silas fought Sam for custody, only to give in and realize Rafe was better off with Sam. Silas and Sam then fell in love. Rafe had a tough life and he eventually turned to drugs. Still, nobody saw it coming. The writers had Rafe be responsible (physically) for running Patrick and Sabrina of the road, which ultimately killed their son. It came as a shock to us all when Molly and Rafe were involved in a high speed police chase, crashed, and Rafe ended up brain dead. They even teased us a little more when Nina was hallucinating that Rafe was awake and speaking to her.
It looks as though the fans were not the only one shocked by Jimmy Deshler’s exit from General Hospital and the death of his character Rafe. In a recent Soaps in Depth interview, Deshler explains that his character’s demise was shocking news to him as well. He learned that Rafe would pass away only days before having to tape the episode. “I guess it was just confidential and they didn’t want any of the story getting out, so I found out the Monday of the week it was happening. I guess it was a surprise to all of us,” he tells Soaps in Depth.
Deshler has been a part of the GH family since January of 2013. Although it is sad to see him go, there is no doubt Deshler will succeed in any project he pursues next. He disclosed to SID that there is a possibility he will be attending college, and focusing on someday being a part of the big screen. “I have kid of set it as my goal to get a feature film and have that be my next project I work on.”
We already miss that sweet face!
As much as we hope Victor Cassadine has him frozen in a cryogenic chamber with Jason Morgan, it looks as the Rafe will not be returning from the dead for the foreseeable future.
Executives at ABC have been going back and forth with the decision to change General Hospital’s time slot yet again. Due to the cancellation of the Katie Couric show, Katie, ABC has decided to move the 51 year old soap opera back to 3PM Eastern/2PM Pacific time.
The Katie show first aired in September of 2012 on ABC at 3PM, taking the place of the longest soap opera still on air to this date, General Hospital. General Hospital moved to 2PM Eastern and it took some time for fans to get used to the change.
The Official General Hospital Facebook page has announced the change will take place on, Monday, September 8th, 2014. The change will take affect in these EIGHT areas: San Antonio, New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, Philadelphia, San Francisco, Houston, and Raleigh-Duhram.
Does this time change work for you? What was more convenient, 2PM or 3PM?
Sam told Patrick how important he is to her- how important he has been to her since Danny got sick. She said she couldn’t have gotten through it without him. He was there for her yesterday and all the time in between. Yesterday, he held her close and let her talk about how much she misses Jason and how up until now, she has felt like he is out there somewhere.
Sam has been there for Patrick throughout the years as well. He has her to lean on when it comes to Robin, Sam has given him advice about Sabrina, and she is helping him investigate everything that happened the night that he and Sabrina were ran off the road. Patrick called Sam his “adventure buddy” but it looks like there may be something more between these two besties.
Patrick has known for some time that there is a possibility Jason is alive. For unselfish reasons, Patrick has not told Sam. Now that he thinks Jason is dead, per Robin’s lie to protect her loved ones, will Patrick go after Sam romantically?
How far do you think Patrick and Sam will take their relationship before Jason comes home to Port Charles?
Before marrying Levi, Maxie had just had a talk with Mac, and then with Lulu regarding Nathan having feelings for her. She started remebering special moments they shared since the moment they met.
