General Hospital’s Emotional Goodbye

EmmacryingWhen it comes to tear jerking story lines, yesterday’s episode should be ranked as one of the top for being an extremely sad goodbye. Emotions were running high as Sam and Patrick decided to end their relationship and engagement. However, this time, the breakup didn’t just involve two adults. Little Emma, played by the remarkable Brooklyn Silzer, displayed phenomenal talent in Thursday’s episode of General Hospital. Her pain was so real, it could be felt even by those who could never relate to a heart wrenching goodbye. Emma is struggling so hard with the loss of her mother Robin, although she is alive, Emma has been lead to believe that Robin is choosing to live without her. She has had high hopes for finding a mother figure in Sabrina (Teresa Castillo) and now in Sam (Kelly Monaco), and this break up between Patrick and Sam has pushed Emma to her breaking point. After Sam left, Emma begged and pleaded to her dad, crying, “no more falling in love, no more girlfriends, I need mommy (Kimberly McCullough)!”

Jason Thompson and Kelly Monaco were nothing short of Emmy worthy in their performance. This story is a clear reflection of the real life goodbye the cast and crew have experienced as Jason Thompson taped his final episode of General Hospital last week. Jason Thompson has ended his 10 year run as the undeniably gorgeous, Dr. Patrick Drake, son of legendary Dr. Noah Drake, played by Rick Springfield. It has been confirmed that Jason Thompson has moved on to The Young and the Restless, and will be joining fellow ex-GH cast mate, Steve Burton (Jason Morgan).

It’s difficult to say what will happen next with this story. Odds are, they are gearing toward Emma getting her wish, and having Robin return to Port Charles, but no one knows just how long that will last.

Watch General Hospital M-F at 2PM Eastern/Standard to find out what’s to come at this emotional time for little Emma Drake and her Dad, Patrick.

 

General Hospital Spoilers: Tristan Rogers Return, Confirmed!

RobertAnnaWe have had a lot of news passing through as General Hospital gets ready for November Sweeps and the BIG Jason Morgan Reveal story line.

We are excited to inform fans of yet another General Hospital casting news update! It has been confirmed by GH Executive Producer Frank Valentini and ABC Network Manager, Nathan Varni, that General Hospital vet, Tristan Rogers is set to return to the canvas as Robert Scorpio.

What will Robert be involved in when he returns to Port Charles? Now that Duke has died, Anna is free again. Could this be a possible time for Anna and Robert to reconnect romantically?

General Hospital Spoilers: Robin’s Return Confirmed

RobinretunsYesterday evening, ABC TV Network Manager, Nathan Varni, played a little game with General Hospital fans. He announced on his Facebook page that soon, there would be a BIG announcement regarding GH. Varni’s post attracted immediate attention with fans as rumor mills started spinning.

Shortly after Nathan’s “announcement about an announcement,” he then posted a second message for fans on his Facebook page. It read, “The story continues this November on ABC.” Below his message was a picture of actress and GH fan favorite, Kimberly McCullough.

Robin Scorpio will be returning to Port Charles this coming November Sweeps. Her return to Port Charles doesn’t only bring excitement to fans, it also raises a few concerning questions. Will Robin stop Jake and Elizabeth’s wedding with what she knows about Jason Morgan? Knowing that Jason Thompson is leaving General Hospital, will Robin tell Patrick the whole truth as to why she has been away from him and Emma? The question that fans have been particularly concerned with involves Emma. Jason Thompson is leaving his role as Patrick Drake, and nothing has been confirmed or denied on whether or not Robin will be sticking around Port Chuck. If both parents are gone, will Emma be leaving also? There has been no word form GH Executives on Brooklyn Silzer’s upcoming status with the show. We have our fingers crossed that some way, some how, Emma will be able to remain in Port Charles- with or without her parents.

Will a Heartbroken Patrick Leave Port Charles with Robin?

SamandPatAs we inch closer to the Jason Morgan reveal, a lot is at stake for two couples in Port Charles. When Jake finds out Elizabeth has been lying to him about his true identity, these two are destined for doom. As the story unravels and Sam finds out that her husband and father of her child is alive, will she leave Patrick standing at the altar?

Little Emma expressed her concerns to Anna and Sam, wondering if something bad is going to happen at Sam and Patrick’s wedding. She reflected on his wedding to Sabrina, and how Robin came back and stopped the wedding. Sabrina was hurt in the process, as Patrick ultimately chose Robin. However, this time, Emma is worried about it going a little differently. She is worried that this time, her dad will be the one to get hurt. Emma is wise and she connected the dots between her mom Robin coming back after everyone thought she had died, to the possibility of Jason coming back after everything thinking he has died.

That being said, General Hospital rumors have been swirling that Jason Thompson is undecided in regard to renewing his contract with General Hospital. Fans have been speculating that as the Jason reveal unfolds, Sam will eventually choose Jason, leaving Patrick with nothing. As a result, some think that he, Robin, and Emma, will leave together. These rumors have just started to heat up, and the status of Jason Thompson’s contract with GH is unknown. However, there has been no word of a possible return for Kimberly McCullough, or anything that would indicate that Brooklyn Silzer would be leaving the show as little Emma Drake.

Could Emma be right? Will it be her dad who gets hurt this time? Jake is going to find out he is Jason Morgan very soon, and if Emma is right, this will be another Port Charles wedding disaster to go down in history.

Let us know what you think. Will Jason Thompson leave his role as Dr. Patrick Drake? Could Kimberly McCullough be making a comeback only for Robin to take Patrick and Emma out of Port Charles?

Kimberly McCullough Returns

The last anyone has heard from Robin Scorpio Drake is when she lead her loved ones to believe she was moving to Paris by her own desire, even though we the audience know that Helena (Constance Towers) is forcing her to stay away from Port Charles. Robin and Patrick have since divorced, and Patrick (Jason Thompson) has moved on with Sam Morgan (Kelly Monaco).

The latest General Hospital rumors indicate that Robin will be headed back to Port Charles just in time for the Annual Nurses Ball event. This year, the Nurses Ball is to honor the memory of Robin’s first true love, Stone Cates (Michael Sutton). Brother to Jagger Cates (Antonio Sabato Jr.), and good friend of Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard), Stone meant a lot to the people of Port Charles.

Robin’s in and out has ruffled a few feather’s with fans, the uncertainty of this character’s future is unsettling to some. However, Robin is an iconic character, and the actress who portrays her is well respected by fans and TPTB at GH alike. As long as Kimberly McCullough wants to keep making appearances on General Hospital, it is safe to say that she will always have a home there.

It is uncertain how long Robin’s return will last this time around, perhaps long enough to tie of a few loose ends, or maybe even to create more.

General Hospital Blog will keep fans updated on the latest General Hospital spoilers, news, and any confirmation regarding the return of Kimberly McCullough as Robin.

General Hospital News: Rebecca Budig, GH’s New Robin Scorpio Drake?

Early this month General Hospital Blog reported that All My Children Alum, Rebecca Budig, (Greenlee Smythe) would be joining the cast of General Hospital. Loyal ABC soap fans went wild with this exciting news, as they celebrated the news of this casting decision.

When AMC went off the air, there was much disappointment and fans felt the loss of both AMC and OLTL. OLTL fans were fortunate to be able to catch their favorite stars (Roger Howarth, Kristen Alderson, and Michael Easton) join the cast of General Hospital. Now that Rebecca will be joining GH, AMC fans have something to celebrate.

However this good news does not come without controversy. New General Hospital rumors have been circulating in regard to who Budig will be playing when she arrives in Port Charles. After Executive Producer, Frank Valentini tweeted that Budig will join GH in a “killer new role” most fans took those words literally, and speculated that she would be playing another GH villain. Now that the dust has settled and fans have gotten used to the news of her coming to PC, it can’t help but to cross everyone’s minds…

GH rumor has it that Rebecca Budig will be replacing Kimberly McCullough as the icon Robin Scorpio Drake. McCullough joined General Hospital at the age of 7, beginning in 1985. Recently, the actress has come and gone in her role as Robin to pursue her directing career. The executives at GH have always left the opportunity open for McCullough to return to the show as long as it was feasible to writer her into the script. Kimberly McCullough has been GH’s sweetheart for decades, and the thought of a Robin recast to fans has been very difficult to take it.

Could these rumors be true? Do you think that the crew over at ABC and General Hospital would recast such a role as the legendary Robin Scorpio Drake? Let us know what you think by leaving your comments below.

GH’s Kimberly McCullough Lands Gig On BIG ABC Prime Time Show

General Hospital news just hit the media that General Hospital’s own Kimberly McCullough (Robin Scorpio Drake), is doing just what she set out to do. She left her role as Robin Scorpio Drake a few years ago, and has since returned a few times for cameo appearances. McCullough left to purse a directing career which she has had much success with since she left the show.

As ABC-Disney Program Director Kimberly, has been a part of Disney Channel’s Shake it Up directing team, along with the new Disney Channel show, KC Undercover.

Kimberly has just landed a new gig with the ABC-Disney network and this murder mystery is ready for McCullough’s creative mind. Kimberly will be directing an episode of the thrilling murder mystery, Pretty Little Liars which airs on ABC Family.

 

A Frisco Jones Return?

In the last year or so, the executives at GH have been known for bringing back fan favorites and vet characters. With all of the WSB and Frisco Jones talk that went on last week, could the writers be giving the audience a hint? Last week when Maxie was in her air plane dilemma, she reached out to her father, Frisco Jones to come to her aid and get her home to Nathan before the new year. Also last week, Agent Sloan brought up the fact that Frisco was now the head of the WSB to Anna Devane.

If Jack Wagner does return to his role as Frisco Jones, there are many possible story lines he could tie into. For one, his daughter Maxie will always hold a special place in her heart for her father, also he has many long time friends and colleagues that could be part of a Frisco story line. Since he is now head of the WSB, there is potential there as well with the involvement in the entire Fluke, Jerry Jacks, Helena Cassadine saga, since Victor Cassadine and Anna Devane have been linked to the WSB for many years.

Many times, name dropping like this is a way for the writers to hint that a certain character may be on their way back to Port Charles… but not always. Jack Wagner (Frisco Jones) was most recently part of General Hospital during the 2013 Nurses Ball. When the character was written off, fans had expressed opinions that implied their favorite character had been written out of character this go around. Jack Wagner himself had trouble with the direction the writers had taken Frisco and it was no secret that Wagner left the show on rocky terms with the executives. That being said, are the General Hospital rumors about Frisco returning true, or is it pretty unlikely to see Wagner back in the role of Frisco Jones? Perhaps fences have been mended between the actor and TPTB over at General Hospital. General Hospital Blog will keep fans updated with any information confirming or denying this GH rumor.
