GH Makeover?

According to Daytime Confidential, with all the biotoxin, and fires the hospital will get a new look. The new set will debut in April.

"This story really became an opportunity to take a shot at revising the look of
the hospital and refreshing it," said executive producer Jill Farren Phelps. "It
felt like the right time to update it. The style of the nurses' station has been
the same for 45 years. In daytime, space is money. This new version
will incorporate a lot of usable new
space."
"It will have a very different look," Farren Phelps said. "We want it
to feel like you are walking into a place that feels fresh and modern. It will
still be inside the same hospital. It will have the same architecture, but it
will no longer be that big round nurses' station we've become nostalgic about
over the years."

I Think It's The Little Things That Count

After today's episode I've come to the realization that I think it's the little things that really help an episode. Today's episode for instance, just that little scene when Anthony was laughing like a hyena and you just saw this weird look come across Spinelli and Maxie's faces. It put a smile on my face and isn't that what we basically need. While Guza does give us many sweep stunts the show is just so dreary sometimes it's difficult to watch. Sometimes I feel like I cry more on this soap than actually get to lay back and laugh while watching romance, humor, and drama all come together. I don't this is just my opinion.

Sami

Spoilers 1/23

Rebecca... Rebecca manipulates poor Monica. Monica goes down after being exposed to the Toxins and think Emily has come to bring her to Heavan.

Nik... Nik sees Rebecca and drops all his things to chase after her. Hearing he should beware of Rebecca cuz she isn't a saint like Emily.

Clic... Hearing one rumor that Claudia is pregnant and this may just be what saves Claudia when the secret comes out she'll be having her brother in laws baby.

Kristina... Rumors are Kristina will be sorased.

What I consider a rumor from an 'insider'

"Steve Burton has decided not to renew his contract. SB fans might be sad but this is a good thing for the show over all. There is worry by the higher ups about what losing their arguably most popular star will mean for ratings. Some are privately saying this is the best possible thing that could happen for the show. The show will be more rounded without the focus aways being centered around one character. Dropping SB's hefty salary won't hurt the show either, just saying."

Soap Scoop

Spoilers 1/21

Theres a lot out there today, and its hard to decipher what is true and what is false so please take with a grain of salt =D

Dante/Ethan... Rumor is that Ethan is Dante. His story is with Sonny. This is just the way he's being introduced. He does have an Australian accent in his first scenes. But in the next scenes, Luke finds him hustling some guys at pool, and the accent has mysteriously disappeared. Luke is ready to get physical with Ethan when he gets the word that Tracy and Lulu are in the hospital and probably dead. Ethan decides to go along with him. Once they are there, Ethan is actually the one who 'rescues' Lulu. But before Luke can thank him, he disappears into the crowd. Later on, Luke tracks him down hustling someone at pool again, and offers him a job. Ethan cheats at cards and Luke doesn't catch on to how he did it until after he has left. He wants Dante to do the same thing at the casino and rip-off the clientele.

Toxin Released... Kate drops to the ground suddenly at the gala. She's been exposed to biotoxin. Several of the others at the party are feeling various degrees of illness and some aren't ill at all. They are put in different parts of the hospital. Sick ones here, Well one there. In the midst of all this there is a fire. The well people who are being quarantined are cut-off, can't get out and no one can get into them. So the are unaccounted for for about a week after the fire. Tracy and Lulu are with Robin and Sonny before the fire. Then they get separated. Later on Tracy and Lulu are rescued but no sign of Robin and Sonny. They are unaccounted for. Leyla is unaccounted for. MOnica is unaccounted for. Trevor dies.

Emily is That you??? Monica thinks Emily has come for her. Nik is shocked.

Jolu... Lulu and Matt share a close moment that leaves Lulu uneasy. Johnny finds Lulu but doesn't like what he sees.

Spinelli, I love you!... Maxie realizes what her relationship is with Spinelli, It's love.

Claire Coffee Off Contract

Seems that the inevitable has happened Claire Coffee has been taken off contract status. I'm hearing she still will be recurring.

Heres the message she left on her message board:

Hi Everyone!
It's been a while since I've stopped by...
I sort of figured this was coming, but wanted to be absolutely certain until I relayed the news.
I have been taken off contract, effective February 8. It's a mutual decision; I completely understand the stresses of the producers and writers and the Nadine storyline seemed to coming to a close. I won't be exploding in a ball of hospital flames, but you probably won't see me much around the hospital, either. Tough times in the economy, Port Charles included! Jill Phelps has been incredibly supportive and I have nothing but respect and reverence for my time at GH. Thank YOU ALL for your support.

Signing off,

Claire

Rumors::

Big rumor out there today that Michael could be waking up learning that his Step-mom was behind his shooting, and his Dad is still married to her despite what she has done. This could send little Michael up to the Quartermaines.

Michael will be between 15 -17 yrs old. Also, they are tinkering with the idea of aging Morgan as well to 12.He'll be with the Q's and GH will have a new pre-teen set that will be at PC High, more of the changes you'll see in the spring. The teens should be full blown before the summer months.


Insiders Post about script release for Michael:
"This script was just released today to recast for Michael. Michael will be aged due to that wonderful Rapidly aging soap syndrome disease that is so prevalent. The scene opens in Carly's living room where Michael enters after being picked up for speeding. He was released because Sonny called in favors. He is not grateful. Instead he is defiant and angry, but underneath he is secretly afraid that his head wounds have done something to him that is going to cause his parents a lot of pain. He feels that he is damaged forever and will never totally be normal. He's angry and confused. (these are side notes in the script).Michael asks why they waited up for him. That he knew Dad was having him released and that everything is OK now. Carly says that things are not OK and that they need to discuss what happened. She reminds him that he was going over a hundred miles an hour with his little brother in the car when the police finally stopped him (Michael flashes a look of guilt). Michael hangs his head and says that's why she is really upset. Because she was really just worried about Morgan. Hoping that he would not end up damaged like he is. Carly tells him that he is not damaged. Michael yells that this is a lie. That he will never be the same. That he was shot in the head and spent a year in a coma. That she needs to face the truth."

Did Maurice Bernard Re-Sign???
Quote from Insider:

"Notice Maurice didnt take any vacation this year right? well it was for a reason. Maurice Benard signed again with the show but what he didnt tell the fans is that he also asked for 3 months off the show. The current storyline is being set up for him to leave for 3 months- Sonny will fake his death and disappear to South America. Dante will be in town during this time and everyone will have to deal with him being gone and his kid being in town, nobody wont know what really happened to him except Jason and Sam. During this time, the plan is for Dante to be tested and establish himself a bit in town as he is the young version of the next Sonny Corinthos, of course Maurice has signed for at least 2 years so i'm not saying he is leaving the show, just that he is leaving now and there is no guarantee he will resign next time so the show is preparing themselves."

Natalia Livingston Interview

Click Here for Full Interview

Natalia Livingston said that Guza had an awsome idea for a s/l and a way to bring Natalia back, she says that the timing wasn't great than but perfect for right now. Natalia says that she knew it was a possibility to come back but when Guza called her in November and said "We've got this storyline ready — what are you thinking?" I thought, "Wow, it's just such an incredible opportunity." When making a decision about the role she thought about how great her 5 years were and how she could finally have her own role not stepping into a recast like when she joined the cast as Emily. Natalia talks about how Rebecca is more sharper and edgier than Emily's conservative look.

Genie Francis Interview

In a recent interview with The Trentorian Genie Francis reveals that “I think enough time has passed to finally let go of that little ingénue Laura and look at who I am today,” “I’d say I’m just about ready to play Martha in Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf? I’m hoping America can rediscover me in a new way. And I’m honestly feeling like that can really happen now.” Genie talks about what it was like to be in the national spot light for the Luke and Laura days. Genie reveals that everything was overwhelming back then, and wasn't exactly rose petals. “I certainly didn’t grasp the enormity of it at the time at all,” Francis admits now. “I didn’t appreciate it enough. The magnitude of it was just astronomical, and it was terrific to be able to share it with someone as wonderful as Tony Geary, who played Luke. But the show also made a killing off of me, and part of me thinks, ‘I should have made a killing, too.’ I did not.” “It’s still great to get back with Tony on the show because we’ll always share something amazing. It’s like we went to Woodstock together. It was life-changing, transformational, and huge. I love Tony. I feel like when I’m with him on camera, I can do anything. I feel that safe, that taken care of.”

A few months ago I told you about the incident where Christopher Barrios' photo ended up being used on Nighshift. Click Here for past Article. The photo was used as a photo of Touissant's (Billy Dee Williams) son that he abandoned many years ago. Christophers grandmother Sue Rodriquez says ""They ain't got no right doing that -- not a bit of right," after seeing a clip of the show. Now a Lawyer of the Barrio family is trying to figure out how this incident happened. The lawyer found out that a prop master was told to do a google search for a photo of child that resembled Billy Dee Williams. The prop master did a google search for "Black Children" and some how ended up choosing Christopher Barrios' picture. After learning of the incident ABC issued an applogy, "We offer our deepest condolences to the Barrios family for their loss and our sincerest apologies for any pain caused by our mistake." The network than issued a Public Service Announcement on missing and exploited children in Christopher's honor. The PSA aired on SOAPnet. The Barrios family wants to handle this matter out of court, but if they don't get the answers they want than they'll have no choice.

Don't Expect to See Genie Francis Again Anytime Soon

From Tele-buddy's Tinseltown Tales:

Don't expect to see Genie Francis back to GH anytime soon. She hasn't been asked back and she is starting to fill her schedule. According to Tele-Buddy's Tinseltown Tales, she has her new Hallmark Channel movie, "The Note II: Taking A Chance On Love" airs Jan. 31. She's also interested in working with Marc Cherry from "Desperate Housewives" and is not ruling out the idea of jumping ship to another soap, like CBS's "Bold and the Beautiful." Genie Francis says "I don't think the writers are interested in a mature Laura," Genie Francis believes that GH likes to remind viewers of who Laura use to be but she isn't in her 20's anymore now Laura has 3 kids and a ex-husband and not a real story to tell.

  Insider Quote About Benefit:
  

"You know from the press release that the patient carrying the bio toxin is cut
into at the end of the Wednesday January 28 show and that is when the bio toxin
is released. Before that you have an hour by hour count up to that moment. You
will have gala scenes on January 27. That is people arriving. January 28 is some
being called away to the surgery and the surgery gone wrong in the last scene.
From January 16-January 28 they are setting up the tensions that will be the
background for this crises. That means that those days aren't really centric to
Patrick, Jason, Sonny, Carly. For a comparison go back and look at the week or
two before the MC especially those last few days when the hour by hour started
but Jerry hadn't taken the place hostage.From January 28-Mid February Patrick is
a featured player. He is the one in charge at the hospital during the crises as
Monica falls ill with the initial bio toxin release as does Liz. Jason and Sam
are also featured as they are trying to figure out who did this. Nik is also
featured because of Rebecca's appearance on the scene. Robin does not disappear
but remember I said above that the scenes in hour by hour count up is setting up
stories for after the bio toxin is released so yes her PPD is an issue that makes
her help not all that helpful.There is a quarantine but people at the gala start
falling ill and they start going upstairs."

Spoilers 1/7

Just to let you know some of these spoilers/rumors I'd take with a grain of salt some of them seem off so I'm just throwing them out there.

L&L2/JaSam... Sam will be conflicted between Jason and Lucky but eventually chooses Lucky. Lucky goes to Liz who is basically waiting with open arms. Rumors indicate that Jason's feelings for Sam arose first. The "Insider" says that you will notice Jason and Sam brush up against eachother with that 'look' in their eyes. I'm hearing even more rumors that Rebecca Hearst could end up leaving the show. Lucky and Liz almost kiss, Sam sees them almost kissing and goes to Jason. JaSam is said to not even go to romantic before March. Lucky and Liz get back together which in turn brings Jason and Sam together as they look in from the outside. More rumors say that Liz will die and JaSam will fight for custody but I think thats getting ahead of ourselves. Lucky is at the gala, Liz is there also she might just be working at the hospital.

Slaudia/Skate... Sonny and Claudia share a night of passion. Kate knows Claudia is behind Michael's shooting and is ready to tell Sonny. Kate does spill Olivia's secret. Sonny surprisingly worries for his wife. I'm hearing an interesting rumor that when Sonny finds out it was Claudia, Claudia is pregnant and you know Sonny wouldn't kill a pregnant women especially when the baby could be his.

Sason... Sonny believes that Jason has agreed to give him up to save Spinelli. Alexis and Sonny have a confrontation where she basically tells him she's tired of the mob violence and will put him in jail.

Spixie.... Spinelli and Maxie have a falling out.

Matt... Matt has an encounter with Rebecca.

CarJax... Carly and Jax are still in love but have been unable to work things out. Olivia attends the gala with Jax. Diane suggests to Alexis that they help Jax and Carly to reconcile.

Nikadine... Nadine feels the pressure to sign over the patent. Alexis sets up a Senate hearing so that Nadine can testify against Equinox Nikolas has his hands full building her self confidence.

Jolu... Lulu agrees to attend to honor her cousin but Johnny forgoes the festivities.The Quartermaines also are in attendance. Luke and Johnny are off getting Johnny's name cleared. Lulu is one of the first to fall sick. Maxie and Lulu attend the benefit together. Maxie loses it with Matt over Lulu's illness and things heat up between the two. Lulu and Johhny have a falling out before hand and then all hell breaks loose, causing Johnny to go find Lulu.

Rebecca... After Nikolas gets over his initial shock of seeing Rebecca, Rebecca's lack of interest in Nikolas comes into play (pure comedy). He gives it back to her as good as he gets it. She will get a little play time with other male characters, but she is for Nikolas.
