About the temp recast of Maxie, though the reason why is not given https://www.soapoperadigest.com/content/general-hospital-temporarily-recasts-maxie/

They seemed to suggest they were doing it for people to learn from it, but it wasn't clear if they were addressing us the viewing audience or making a video or ongoing series of videos to some audience that is eager to learn from their mistakes. I didn't really like it and I didn't particularly like any of the principals. I'll watch another episode to see how it goes, but it's already on shaky ground as to whether I'll stick with it

Definitely hate that

Overnight numbers for the special were 4.73 million viewers. It was 3rd for the night, behind King Charles’ speech at 1st with 7.48 million viewers (shown across multiple channels) and Strictly at #2 with 5.29 million viewers

That was pretty entertaining though the direction and music were a little too schmaltzy at times

All because they didn't want to wait a few months

I thought it was a cute episode. Roz’s lack of a gift for Dan at the end and his reaction was hilarious. Kareem’s acting wasn’t bad

Hey, we’re back! The show will mourn Bobbie Spencer and her portrayer Jackie Zeman on January 10 and 11.

SOD's Best and Worst of GH for 2023 https://www.soapoperadigest.com/photos/general-hospital-2023-best-worst/?utm_campaign=true_anthem_soapoperadigest&utm_content=new_content&utm_medium=social&utm_source=twitter

I thought tonight’s performances were all pretty good. I don’t think I disliked any of them

Today’s episode (all caught up) Ohhh, Esme seems to be starting to remember

7-days number is 6.848 million viewers and 10th for the week, behind Strictly's 2 episodes and I'm a Celebrity's 7 episodes

Today, Ruby Sunday meets the Doctor, goblins, stolen babies and, perhaps, the secret of her birth. Writer: Russell T. Davies Director: Mark Tonderai Trailer

I saw that GH also won for Best Casting

I finally saw this last night on Max. It was totally nuts and funny but dramatic, and all that somehow worked to make a fun movie that was also serious about men and women's places in the world. The "I'm Just Ken" number was great. Is that available to buy digitally? I'm glad to see it made over a billion dollars, especially given the idiotic anti-"woke" naysayers. And it contains the new Doctor of Doctor Who Ncuti Gatwa. The only thing is, I've seen Greta Gerwig in at least one recent interview and she seemed very unsure of herself, which makes me wonder how she's become such a good director

I used the media thread for the show wins if you want to discuss further there

The Daytime Emmy Awards was tonight. GH won for best soap and the late Sonya Eddy for best supporting actress plus was given a tribute, Robert Gossett (Marshall) won for best supporting actor, Eden McCoy for best young performer and Alley Mills for guest performer. The show also did a tribute to Tyler Christopher https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/tv/tv-news/daytime-emmys-2023-winners-list-1235760191/
