ABC Soaps In Depth的5/22/2017目录

Can Jason And Franco Save Jake? Watch for several stories to collide as the word “chimera” takes on a special meaning for more than a few Port Charles residents. And it looks as if the search for answers will force rivals to work together under terribly difficult circumstances! “Franco and Jason are not a likely or harmonious partnership by any means,” laughs Altman, “but they do have a similar stake in finding out what’s going on with Jake. Yes, the boy is Jason’s son, but Franco cares about him, too.” On Cassadine Island, “they will discover something that will help them begin to unravel the mystery. As for them teaming up, it could go either way. They might find a way to work together against all odds, or they could…

The In Depth Story: The docucomedy explores the bond of Jodie Sweetin (FULL HOUSE), Beverley Mitchell (SEVENTH HEAVEN) and Christine Lakin (STEP BY STEP), former child stars who grew up in the spotlight in the 1990s. As child stars themselves during that time period, the Tom sisters were more than happy to join in on an episode with their longtime pals. “They’re friends of ours,” Tom says, “so when they asked us to do the show, I said, ‘That sounds like a blast.’ And it was!” The ladies commune with Mother Nature in the loosely- scripted episode. “The situation was set up for us, but it was all ad-libbed. We all go camping, and you see the hijinks that ensue,” previews the actress. “The joke is that the Tom sisters…

Is Jax Gone For Good? Thanks to Sonny’s manipulations, GENERAL HOSPITAL’s Jax was deported and ordered to never return to the States. But can ICE really keep Ingo Rade macher and his character away from Port Charles? The In Depth Story: Jax’s recent visit wasn’t long, but the quick hit saw him mourn his mother, bed Carly and, perhaps most importantly, confess to buying Nelle’s kidney. “It was probably one of the best storylines I’ve ever been involved in,” Rademacher raves to Soaps In Depth. “Having that twist and having my character still keep some dignity throughout this story was a good choice by the producing and writing team at GH. “There were definitely concerns about doing this to Jax,” he continues, “because we didn’t want to take away from…

Dylan’s side of the bed is barely cold, but it’s looking like THE YOUNG & THE RESTLESS’ Sharon has already found herself a new man: Scott, one of the few people in Genoa City who can look at her and no t s e e a baby - snatching, paternity-testtampering pyromaniac! “Scott sees Sharon as this warm person who is very approachable,” says his portrayer, Daniel Hall. In fact, Scott may like Sharon for the same reason she likes him — she’s willing to look beyond the baggage he might bring, having been rec ent l y kidnapped. “She doesn’t question what he’s been up to… and that’s attractive to Scott,” reflects the actor. “Lauren has been super supportive, but there’s been a bit of micromanaging!” Hall admits that Lauren’s…

Twitter Handle: @WilliamdeVry1. Honor Role: The actor considers it a “great tribute” that GH trusted him to play out this wild ride. Biggest Fan: While watching his girlfriend in Moonlight In Vermont, the GH-er admits, “I shed a rare tear.” Team Efiort: “I used to come home to nice, comfy meals, but now Rebecca’s working a lot,” says deVr y.

Hats OfiFor Daytime! GENERAL HOSPITAL’s Lynn Herring (Lucy) doesn’t just love ranch life — she’s always working to sustain her community and our planet. In addition to being involved locally with husband Wayne Northrop (ex-Roman, DAYS OF OUR LIVES), the Northern California cattle rancher is a vocal environmentalist and activist — which she says is part of what makes popping into GH a good thing. “I get off my high horse and realize I can get a little preachy,” she laughs. “‘Stop! You don’t have to go off on your environmental, Red Cross, animal rights stuff!’” Every now and again, GH gives the actress an excuse to leave her social responsibilities behind and just throw herself into Lucy’s antics. “It’s been fun to get back to the shenanigans of the…

Tight-Knit Laura Wright (Carly, GENERAL HOSPITAL) and her kids are as close as can be Anyone who follows GENERAL HOSPITAL’s Laura Wright (Carly) on social media can see she gets along with her children , Lauren, 18, and LJ, 16. “The three of us have a great time together,” confirms the actress, who lives a few hours north of the GH set. “I come down to work in L.A. a good deal, and around day four of my being here, I’ll get the text from my son asking when I’m coming home. And if Lauren can, she comes to L.A. when I have to. We like being together.” Now, Wright’s not suggesting her kids are always Instagram-ready perfection. “There are times when they’re a pain in the butt,” she laughs.…

For months now, GENERAL HOSPITAL fans have watched with mixed emotions as Alexis has struggled to figure out how she feels about the man who held a knife to her throat and yet still maintained a firm grip upon her heart. And in the wake of Julian’s return from the dead, it was easy to see why the show trusted Nancy Lee Grahn with the complex story as she made it impossible for us to give the Gold Star to anyone else. Heartbreak Hotel Thanks to Grahn’s handling of a powerful script, even viewers who had diffi- culty with the notion of Alexis falling back into bed with the man who had physically and verbally abused her found themselves understanding the tumultuous emotions being felt by the disgraced attorney. After…

That same day, David Faustino — who will forever be known as MARRIED… WITH CHILDREN’s Bud — will reprise his…

Will Jason Get Answers From Daphne? With Jason following Jake’s mystery to Cassadine Island, Andrea Savo returns to GH as Daphne on Monday, May 8. When we met the beauty last summer, she claimed to have been the one who carried Lulu’s embryo. As it turned out, that was just a ruse, but the mysterious young woman clearly has some connection to Helena. Will Daphne be able (or willing) to answer Jason’s questions about the time he and his son spent on the island? Look Who’s Home!

We’re not entirely sure what motivated Brad’s return to the dark side, but it’s been rather fun watching his interactions with Griffin and Finn. On the newly-sober doc’s first day back to work, his crankiness left most people running for the hills. But when Finn pushed Brad’s buttons, the lab tech happily returned the favor, leaving us to wonder if the surgeon has any idea just how low his new “playmate” is willing to go! Meanwhile, we’ve begun to get the impression that there might be something brewing be- tween Griffin and Hayden, and we fully support this idea. So far, Finn and Hayden’s biggest stumbling blocks have been of the plot-point as opposed to emotion-based variety. And Griffin has had literally no romantic storyline — no, we do not…

While Julian was skulking around pretending to be dead on GH, deVry and longtime girlfriend Rebecca Staab (Elizabeth, PORT CHARLES) were refueling in Florida. “We were on the beach, between Daytona and Cocoa Beach, for about two weeks, just watching dolphins play,” shares the Canadian, who lived in Florida with his mom before going Hollywood. “I love it there. It was beautiful every day of our visit — even the rain was beautiful. All I did was work out, spend some time with my mom, do a couple of chores for her and go down in the evening or morning to enjoy the beach.” The actor, who’s a regular GH viewer, even took a break from tuning in. But there was no escaping Port Charles. “There are a lot of…

No scheme is too outlandish for GENERAL HOSPITAL’s Obrecht.

Birthday: April 6. Hometown: Jacksonville, FL. Going The Distance: Darbo and her hubby, Rolf, have been married for 43 years! Herd Mentality: Darbo voiced one of the sheep in the 1995 ? lm Babe. the introduction of an all-new Spectra gang earlier this year on THE BOLD & THE BEAUTIFUL was a nostalgic nod to the show’s original Sally Spectra (played by the late, great Darlene Conley) and her merry band of mischiefmakers. Though it’s been a decade since the original Sally delighted B&B fans with her sassy, brassy attitude, turns out, she had a sister all this time! DAYS OF OUR LIVES alum Patrika Darbo (ex-Nancy) debuted on the show in January as that sibling, Shirley, in a story twist no one saw coming… well, unless you count Darbo,…

Back In The Day: “I played baseball and football,” Archey reveals. Did You See It? The actor says he played a “total sweetheart” in PixL’s recent release, Can’t Buy My Love.

Having grown up without his father himself, Eli’s portrayer, Lamon Archey, says that he knows just what that experience was like. “All his life, Eli really felt like he needed that father figure;…

The In Depth Story: The actresses would have zero complaints about their longtime on-screen feud, except for the fact that some folks have trouble separating them from their alter egos! “I love a good old catfight on daytime, and our fans can go at us all they want — as long as they’re addressing the characters and not us personally,” Monaco says. “You can call Sam whatever you want to call her. Same with Elizabeth. But Becky and Kelly are off limits. “We’re friends,” she continues. “Becky’s actually one of my closest friends in Los Angeles — in the world! I don’t think the fans know how much she and I get along.” Herbst and Monaco’s characters have caused a long-standing fission amongst GH fans, and the actresses appreciate the…

On DAYS OF OUR LIVES, Eli’s been holding a mammoth grudge against his mother for keeping him from both his late biological father and the Horton family. However, time has a way of healing wounds, and it’s looking like this gaping one is finally starting to close. “Valerie’s worst fear happened when her son was like, ‘Who am I? And who are you?’” her portrayer, Vanessa Williams, recalls. “So the child that she’s so bonded with had become distant with her. That was hear tsickening.” To regain that lost trust, Eli will first have to accept, if not understand, Val’s motive for isolating him. “She made a decision based on her experience with [his dad] David,” Williams reminds, “and on his relationship with his other child [Scotty], whom he ignored.”…

Hot Topic: Sonny/Carly/Jax Let’s get this out of the way right up front: No matter how hard GENERAL HOSPITAL has tried to explain the whole kidney storyline, it still has more holes than a motheaten shirt. But the fallout has been pretty fantastic, especially in the wake of Jax’s confession. Even as Sonny continued to blame everyone around him for the unfolding events, Jax tried to do the right thing by taking responsibility for his actions. The story has brought out the worst in Sonny and Carly — with her refusing to acknowledge Nelle’s genuine contrition, and him instinctively lashing out — even as Michael tried to be the voice of reason shouting into the swirling madness. Maurice Benard’s Sonny became — as he so often in the past has…

Having failed to win Nick Viall’s heart on THE BACHELOR, vivacious 31-year-old attorney Rachel Lindsay will be the one doing the choosing on ABC’s THE BACHELORETTE. Series host Chris Harrison promises that when the season premieres on Monday, May 22, viewers will be impressed with her options. “Casting did a great job,” he enthuses. “If you have a girl like Rachel who sets the bar very high — she’s ver y smart, professional, has a great sense of humor and is a wonderful conversationalist — it takes a ver y strong, proud man to keep up with that.” All Kinds Of Guys Harrison says that choosing an African- American woman for the coveted position left the door open to more diversity in terms of her suitors, but they will also…

THE BOLD & THE BEAUTIFUL Knowing she was facing jail time for stealing Forrester designs, Sally told her employees that Spectra Fashions was officially kaput, a development that left Bill salivating to finally get his hands on their building. Thomas felt sympathetic to Sally’s plight, and he confessed to Steffy that he wished he could do something to help his former flame.
