The In Depth Story: For Olivia, the various parts of her life that she has desperately been trying to keep separate are about to collide. Sure, she took Leo out of town to keep him safe from Julian, but this week, she returns to Port Charles… and things are going to get awfully messy awfully quickly. What brings Olivia back to town? Sonny’s latest health crisis. After all, she and the Teflon don share a son in Dante. In fact, he’s the very first person she runs into upon arriving, and she shares an important bit of info about his little brother! He’s stashed away at the Metro Court with a nanny! The real quandary? Not surprisingly, Olivia is tired of being separated from Leo and wants to bring him…

The In Depth Story: “My character is a bit of an eccentric,” shares Knight, “who will be assisting Neil in a situation.” Sure, Knight knew he’d earned a lot of fans as Pine Valley’s “Tad The Cad,” but even he was overwhelmed by the response to news of his new gig. “I’m very honored — and I’ve got to say I’m a little surprised,” he admits. “It’s been a while since I’ve worked in daytime, and the world has kept going. There are a lot of actors from ONE LIFE TO LIVE that went over to GENERAL HOSPITAL, and a lot of people from AMC have either floated through or stayed at Y&R. So that people are responding to the fact that I’m here… it’s kind of cool!” Knight credits…

With Bradford Anderson’s Spinelli back in Port Charles, look for the return of his verbal sparring partner, Diane, as well! “Diane and Spinelli… together again,” announced the attorney’s portrayer, Carolyn Hennesy, on Twitter. “You asked for it… you’re gonna get it.” When In Depth caught up with the actress shortly after the news broke, Hennessy told us with a chuckle, “Well, it’s about damn time! Port Charles, from what my loyal fans tell me, is in dire need of the ser vices of the brusque lady of justice. Personally, I can’t wait to return with a mop and broom and see who’s made a mess of what now!” A spokesperson for the soap says that Hennesy will be back on air as Diane in late October.…

Just last month, Marc Anthony Samuel (Felix) filmed a part in the upcoming indie movie Rumor From Ground Control. Samuel will play Nevin Vance in the thriller, in which an investigative journalist stumbles upon a CIA cover-up of a failed NASA mission. Director and writer Seaton Lin tells In Depth that the star’s character is “the son of an astronaut, a hacker and the informant in the film. Nevin makes it his quest to expose the classified space mission that led to his father’s death by releasing the footage to the media.” Lin plans to hit the festival circuit with Rumor From Ground Control next year. Since most of Samuel’s work on the film was done during GH’s three-week hiatus last month, it seemingly did not impact the recurring actor’s…

Michael and Morgan find themselves having to answer to their dad on Tuesday, October 13. Michael would probably very much like to hear the conversation Sabrina has with Felix that same day! In light of recent events, Paul goes looking for answers on Friday, October 16. But is he doing so as the district attorney… or as the guy who wants to take over the local crime organizations? Jake goes looking for answers, too, about his past on Monday, October 19, and Sonny overhears something that does not please him on Tuesday, October 20. As a result, he gathers his family on Thursday, October 22, humbly asking for their support. Will the sometimes fractured family rally around their patriarch during his time of need? Sonny has his back against the…

The walls are closing in on Aiden on Tuesday, October 13. Will desperate times force him to take desperate measures? Theresa does everything in her power on Wednesday, October 14, to prevent her dream from being squashed like a bug beneath Kate’s fashionably-high heel! As John’s journey to find out, once and for all, who he really is continues, Paul offers to lend a helping hand on Thursday, October 15. And on Friday, October 16, fate pushes Paul and the newly widowed Sonny back into one another’s lives!…

YOU WIN SOME... GH’s Patrick asked Sam to marry him… YOU LOSE SOME... … only to have memories of Jason cause her to put him on hold! We’re starting to wonder if the residents of THE YOUNG & THE RESTLESS’ Genoa City might need a good eye doctor. After all, Sharon announced her pregnancy at the same time Sage announced hers… and yet Sharon doesn’t even have the tiniest baby bump, while Sage quite rightly looks like she could’ve swallowed a beach ball! We get that Dylan wants to be sympathetic to Sharon’s mental state, but that doesn’t mean he should be ignoring all the red flags that have been flapping in front of his face — like Sharon repeatedly insisting he not go with her to the Ob-Gyn for…

Q. Why did GENERAL HOSPITAL’s Alexis and Ric name their daughter Molly? Greg S. Fort Worth, TX A. If you remember back, Manny Ruiz caused a head-on collision between two trains in the Glencoe Tunnel. Alexis was so stressed out that her water broke and she went into early labor, which, of course, meant that there were complications. Besides giving birth in the ruins of a tunnel, Alexis wasn’t dilated enough, leaving Emily and Robin with no choice but to prepare Alexis for an emergency C-section amongst the rubble! In the end, she gave birth to a healthy baby girl under the worst possible circumstances. “She’s a fighter, determined to be born,” Alexis told Ric, suggesting they call their daughter Molly. “Our unsinkable Molly,” Ric smiled. The name was in…

A lthough appearing on BLUE BLOODS is very dif ferent from starring on GENERAL HOSPITAL, Marisa Ramirez says that chemistry plays as important a role in the relationship between detectives Danny and Maria as it did in the romance of Port Charles lovers Gia and Nikolas. “You have to know your partner and what they’re thinking, because on a moment’s notice, you might have to save their life — that happens a lot on the show,” the actress explains. Leading man “Donnie [Wahlberg] and I have fun banter, and we know how we each take our coffees and what goes on in our personal lives. So we share good chemistry, and that helps us work together, especially on the long, crazy, cold days” of shooting in the Big Apple. Ready…

During the Twilight series craze, Fodé was sometimes compared to that movie’s heartthrob, Robert Pattinson. “I had this wild and crazy, spiky hair, and I always wore a black jacket. I’d hear, ‘Oh my God, you’re like Edward from Twilight!’” he recalls. “I’d say, ‘What is Twilight, and who is this Edward guy?’ I finally watched the first movie, and I was like, ‘Ohhh. Okay.’” It’s been a while since the actor has been mistaken for any big-screen blood-sucker, as these days he’s more often likened to actors Jude Law, SMALLVILLE’s Tom Welling and AMERICAN HORROR STORY star Matt Bomer (Ben, GUIDING LIGHT).…

Who is Nichols’ favorite musical artist? That’s an easy one: his beautiful daughter, Dyllan. “I just saw her perform in New York,” he reveals, noting that she collaborates with instrumentalist Dominick Boyle to create music that has “incredible imagery and emotion. She keeps growing and developing her style musically.” While Dyllan is a talented singer, Nichols says that at heart, his girl is a songwriter. “Her earliest influences were Joni Mitchell and Jeff Buckley,” he offers. “Her songs are poetry; They come from the deepest place in her heart and soul.” Dyllan’s most recent single, “Try,” is available on iTunes, and her music videos can be found at Dyllanmusic.com. “She is a true artist,” the proud papa concludes. “Catch her next at The Bitter End in New York City on…

Q: Which of your co-stars is the cast social director? Ryan Paevey (Nathan, GH) “Truthfully, I’m not sure. I’m not a huge social butterfly myself. I maintain friendly relationships on set, but I don’t really hang out with a lot of people from the show outside of [the studio]. If you find out who that person is, tell them to include me next time!” Scott Clifton (Liam, B&B) “Darin [Brooks, Wyatt] is always giving me [grief] because I don’t hang out with anyone; I just always go home. He’s like, ‘Come on, dude! One of these days we’ve got to hang!’ and I get all psyched up about it, like, ‘Yeah! We’re gonna do it!’ and then I never do anything about it. So Darin, rightfully, is frustrated with me.…

THE BOLD & THE BEAUTIFUL After Eric stepped in to help arbitrate their feud, Steffy offered Ivy a job assignment that left the Aussie ill at ease. Knowing that Steffy’s plan was a malicious one, Liam privately expressed his disapproval. Wyatt sensed that his girlfriend was squeamish about her new role in the company, so he threw his enthusiastic support behind her. Ridge told Caroline about his vasectomy, and she, in turn, confessed to him about sleeping with Thomas. Unable to forgive his son, Ridge ordered him to leave town, but Thomas begged Caroline to intervene on his behalf. Zende hinted to Nicole that he was ready to take their relationship to the next level, and Maya suggested to Rick that they think about adding to their family. Steffy and…

In late September, GH executive producer Frank Valentini posted a video on his Twitter page of Lexi Ainsworth (Kristina), who had a message for the soap’s fans. “Thank you so much for welcoming me back to the show,” the young actress cheerily told viewers. “I’m looking forward to spending more time here in Port Charles!” So does that mean that Ainsworth will be moving Kristina back to town permanently? While the actress’ statement seemingly indicates as much, a show spokesperson could not confirm that that is, in fact, the case, telling In Depth that there is no additional information to report at this time.…

Via her official Website, Kassie DePaiva penned a heartfelt message to fans confirming she’ll soon exit her role of DAYS OF OUR LIVES’ Eve. “As the sand runs out of my hourglass over at DAYS, I have no regrets,” ONE LIFE TO LIVE’s former Blair said. “I had a truly remarkable experience there. From the beginning, as Eve showed up in town, and throughout her bumpy ride through Salem, it has all been a good time for me.” DePaiva went on to say that she received the opportunity to work with other ac-tors whom she’d admired for years while at DAYS, and specifically thanked co-stars Melissa Reeves (Jennifer), Casey Moss (JJ), Jen Lilley (Theresa), Wally Kurth (Justin), A Martinez (Eduardo) and True O’Brien (ex-Paige) for helping her find what she…

Bill is amused by Steffy’s plan for retribution against Ivy on Monday, October 12, but Katie voices her disapproval. Wyatt can’t help but wonder, on Tuesday, October 13, if Ivy is still hung up on Liam. After learning about the favor Maya and Rick have asked of Nicole, Zende realizes that he and his girlfriend may be on different pages on Wednesday, October 14. Both baffled by Ridge’s behavior, Steffy and Brooke draw their own conclusions about his motives on Thursday, October 15. On Friday, October 16, Caroline stands by her man and defends the decision Ridge made regarding Thomas.…

THE BOLD & THE BEAUTIFUL’s Thomas and Caroline have attempted to sidestep the reality of their one-night, drunken encounter, but now that they’re related by marriage, things have gotten decidedly more awkward. “Thomas’ emotions led him to misinterpret things” on that fateful night in the hotel room, explains Pierson Fodé (Thomas). “Now he’s having to live with those regrets. Meanwhile, he and Ridge had been attempting to work toward a better father/son relationship, but this is going to potentially make things really tough.” (Gee, you don’t say?) Further complicating matters is the turmoil Ridge and Caroline’s marriage is currently undergoing now that she realizes that her dreams of starting a family may not materialize the way she’d hoped. “Ridge may have already had a family, but Caroline also wants to…

FYIFYIFYI Birthday: February 14. Birthplace: Pasadena, CA. Busy Body: When she’s not working on Y&R, Linder has been appearing in a slew of movies, including Miss Meadows with Katie Holmes. “I played the principal, and she played a teacher that worked at my school,” Linder shares. “That was a lot of fun! At the [recent Y&R] fan event, someone came up to me and said, ‘I saw you in Miss Meadows, and you were so mean!’ Everybody loved Katie’s character, Miss Meadows — except for my character!” No one was more shocked than THE YOUNG & THE RESTLESS’ Kate Linder when her alter ego, Esther, finally hung up her feather duster and left the Chancellor mansion after 33 years. “At first I was like, ‘Oh, no! Leaving the house? Oh…

If you said there was never a dull moment in your life, your friends would probably roll their eyes at the exaggeration. But when GENERAL HOSPITAL’s Maxie says it, you bet your Jimmy Choos people believe it. And after reviewing her history from A to Z, you’ll understand why! A Aiding and abetting: Maxie shouldn’t have helped fugitive Zander Smith. But he was so darn hot, she couldn’t help herself. B B.J.: When Tony’s daughter was killed in a school bus crash, her heart was given to her cousin, Maxie. C Crimson: Although working for the fashion magazine was clotheshorse Maxie’s dream job, her boss, Kate Howard, was a well-dressed nightmare. D Dunkleman: Peter Harrell Jr. assumed an Australian accent and the name Levi Dunkleman as part of a nutty…

Put GENERAL HOSPITAL’s Dominic Zamprogna (Dante) and Emme Rylan (Lulu) on screen together, and you get magic. Put them in front of Soaps In Depth’s camera, and you get mayhem — adorable, hilarious mayhem. See for yourself!…

GENERAL HOSPITAL’s Paul Hornsby isn’t greedy. He already has money to burn. No, what he craves is power, and when he really set in motion his plan to get it — lots of it! — portrayer Richard Burgi turned in a series of performances that played like an offer we couldn’t refuse. So how could the soap veteran not walk away with this week’s gold star? Partners In Crime Although Ava was a huge part of Paul’s scheme, he wasn’t about to trust her with all the details. And, frankly, he didn’t have to, not when he could threaten her with questions like, “Are you going to join my cause… or be my first conviction” as D.A.? Side note: Wasn’t the term “handsome devil” coined just for the purpose of…

The In Depth Story: “We’d been out shopping for my daughter’s birthday,” Gaskill tells In Depth. “There was a moment when a car pulled up next to us [at the light]. The driver was a Muslim woman whom Ambika turned and smiled at — she was beautiful — and then she turned back at me. The next thing we knew, it was, ‘Boom, boom, boom!’” The fugitive, Jacob Ross, was reportedly driving a stolen car and collided with another vehicle in the intersection, only to then plow into the SUV ahead of Gaskill. “Then that car hit us and the fugitive also hit us on the driver’s side where I was sitting, then we hit another car,” he explains. “I didn’t see it coming, so it was very surreal —…

The latest comings and goings — and how they will change your shows! The In Depth Story: Whether Spinelli will become part of that arc (we hope he will) or again wind up in Maxie’s orbit (which we guess he won’t be, after the way the twosome agreed to part ways earlier this year), Anderson is happy to return! “The great thing that’s happened to me in the last couple of years since I left is that I haven’t been completely gone, so the familiarity still exists, but there’s also an element of newness when I go back,” he tells In Depth. “GH and I are kind of in a longdistance relationship. We see each other once a month, and when I greet GH at the airport, I wear a…

Has Kathleen Gati (Obrecht) landed herself another side job? The actress retweeted a Variety story about FEAR THE WALKING DEAD’s companion Web series, FER THE WALKING DEAD: FLIGHT 462. While that by itself is rather innocuous, Gati added a comment of her own, telling her followers, “You never know who might show up in this!” and including several winking emoticons. A 16-part Web series, FLIGHT 462 follows a group of airplane passengers who discover an infected traveler. The series made its debut on AMC.com last week and will continue to play out ever y Sunday, both online and during THE WALKING DEAD now that the flagship show has returned to the cable network for Season 6. FLIGHT 462 is meant to bridge the gap between the main series and Season…

Delia’s family gathers on Monday, October 12, to reflect on her loss and honor her memory. Not surprisingly, Adam spends Tuesday, October 13, asking for forgiveness. That same day, Devon decides he can no longer sit around and wait for things to play out. Instead, he takes matters into his own hands! Victor tries to shut the Paragon Project down on Wednesday, October 14. ALL MY CHILDREN alum Michael E. Knight joins the cast as Dr. Neville on Thursday, October 15. And Lily gets a major shock on Friday, October 16!…

THE YOUNG & THE RESTLESS’ Adam has already tried to destroy Newman Enterprises from the outside by unleashing the Paragon Project. While that hasn’t exactly worked out like he hoped, could the schemer have better luck from inside? The fact that he could even get a job within his dad’s company may send fans’ heads spinning, but executive producer/headwriter Charles Pratt Jr. says that deep down, The Mustache is happy to have his child return from the grave. “The son that he never made amends with is alive! He’s come back!” Ah, but that could ultimately have dire consequences, especially when Victor tries to finally repair their relationship by bringing Adam back into Newman. “Nick, who is now a part of the company, will question if he wants to stay,”…

The Other Davis Girl Kristina’s back! Yes! I never really understood why they wrote her off the show two years ago, considering she’s the love child of two of GENERAL HOSPITAL’s most popular characters. With DNA like that, you know there’s a wealth of story available for her! AlexisForPrez via soapsindepth.com Endless Love I absolutely loved the Carly and Sonny montage. It proves to me what I already knew — CarSon are soul mates! They are complicated and messy but, at the end of the day, they love each other more than life itself. Daphne Loring via E-mail Let’s Play Doctor! I’d like to see GH go back to being a show about a hospital. They can still show the lives of the people who are working there, but get…

This summer marked the second anniversary of the passing of Jeanne Cooper (Katherine). Yet Kate Linder doesn’t need an anniversary to remind her of the co-star she worked with for more than three decades. “We had our routine for years and years and years. And that routine doesn’t happen anymore,” she shares quietly. “I remember the first day with her like it was yesterday. Y&R was her life. At the end of her scenes, she would always say, ‘Good night, everyone!’ And I still wait to hear that. She is definitely missed, but I know that she wouldn’t want us to fall apart. She would want us to go forward and make this the best show that we can!” On screen, Y&R once again honored Cooper’s alter ego by devoting…

FYIFYIFYI Birthday: November 6. Hometown: Moses Lake, WA. Minding Their Ps: Fodé has two older brothers, Preston and Payton, and a younger sister named Pharron. “We all have names that start with P,” he says. “I think that started off unintentionally, but my parents just came to like it.” Rapid Aging Syndrome: Don’t believe everything you read about the actor, especially as it pertains to his date of birth! “The Internet decided I was a different age at one point,” he chuckles. “Everyone thinks I’m almost 25, but I’ll actually turn 24 in November.” In recent months, THE BOLD & THE BEAUTIFUL’s Pierson Fodé (Thomas) has had plenty of in-your-face encounters with nosy paparazzi clamoring for a snapshot of the hunky actor and his cute celebrity girlfriend, Victoria Justice. But…

Since exiting ONE LIFE TO LIVE in 2007, Renée Elise Goldsberry (Evangeline) has been wowing audiences on the Great White Way. Currently, the Carnegie Mellon University graduate is drop-ping jaws and winning awards for her performance in Hamilton, the hit musical that’s got everyone buzzing. “I play Angelica Schuyler. I introduce Hamilton, played by Lyn-Manuel Miranda, to my sister, Eliza, and eventually become his sister-in-law,” Goldsberry explains. “Our wealthy father, [Revolutionary War general] Philip Schuyler, was prominent in politics. They’re all historical figures that did a lot during the birth of our nation.” Flashback With A Beat Not only does the musical that combines hip-hop with R&B, jazz and pop give Goldsberry a chance to demonstrate the versatility of her pipes, but it also educates. “It shows the role of…

Who could forget Patch and Kayla, one of DAYS OF OUR LIVES’ supercouples that defined the soap in the 1980s? Certainly not the fans, who are enjoying the formerly-wed pair’s story now that Stephen Nichols, who plays Steve “Patch” Johnson, is back with the show and acting opposite Mary Beth Evans’ Kayla Brady. But will the one-time supercouple reunite? “Steve knows that it will be dif ficult to overcome the hurt he has caused both Kayla and [their son] Joey,” his portrayer suggests, “so he needs to tread very carefully if he wants to win them back.” The More Things Change… A lot happened in the years that the Johnsons were apart — things that Steve has yet to open up about. Likewise, Kayla worked hard to re-establish herself in…
