TeeVee329 February 10, 2015 Share February 10, 2015 I could see it being Jax, or possibly Brenda, because how else could they break up Sonny and Carly now that they've been together for five seconds. 1 Link to comment
Fellaway February 10, 2015 Share February 10, 2015 Apparently it's Rebecca Budig in a new "killer role." Link to comment
TeeVee329 February 10, 2015 Share February 10, 2015 Oh gawd...could she be the Nina coma baby? Link to comment
Fellaway February 10, 2015 Share February 10, 2015 (edited) I was so hoping for an old "killer" character, like Laura, though I do realize the likelihood of GF coming back was next to nil. Ah, well. Just what the show needs, another new character. Edited February 10, 2015 by Fellaway Link to comment
tvgoddess February 10, 2015 Share February 10, 2015 Like this show really needed to add more unneeded dead weight. Link to comment
TeeVee329 February 10, 2015 Share February 10, 2015 You know, I think she'd have been a decent fit as Anna Donely... Link to comment
admiralrodcocker February 10, 2015 Share February 10, 2015 I love Rebecca! But no to more villainous type characters. You know, I think she'd have been a decent fit as Anna Donely... Isn't she too old? Rebecca is in her early 40s. Link to comment
magnolia11 February 10, 2015 Share February 10, 2015 And yet no actors will ever leave. How big can this freaking cast get, and where are they getting the money for all these contract roles? 3 Link to comment
ulkis February 10, 2015 Share February 10, 2015 I can only assume they've had thier paychecks slashed in half from the Guza days. Link to comment

admiralrodcocker February 10, 2015 Share February 10, 2015 I'll be so glad to see Rebecca on screen again where she's not forced to act opposite Cameron Mathison. She seemed really dull and lifeless during those last few Rylee years. Greenlee was such a spitfire during the Leo/Greenlee days and one of my faves, so I know RB can bring it when she's having fun. 2 Link to comment
HipOldBat February 10, 2015 Share February 10, 2015 Sigh. Once again, I am confused. I looked up this actress - first on Twitter (sorry I did, it's an ass-kissing jubilee over there), then on Wikipedia. Her character was on All My Children, right? But her character's name (part of it) is Devane Lavery, so...is she related to Anna and Duke, and if so, how? Yes, I know I could have read the mind-numbing character bio but I am lazy.

OnceSane February 10, 2015 Share February 10, 2015 RB is the "big" announcement? Ugh. Don't get me wrong, I loved loved loved her as Greenlee; but, silly me, I thought this announcement wouldn't be another "we're the greatest, look at our get!". 1 Link to comment

Rebecca Budig is playing a new character on GH. On AMC, her character - Greenlee Smythe - was at one point married to Aidan Devane, who was a distant relative of Anna's (Finola Hughes played Anna on AMC for a few years in the early '00s). The Lavery comes from Cameron Mathison's (odious) character Ryan Lavery, who Greenlee was oft paired with. Edited February 10, 2015 by TeeVee329 Link to comment

jsbt February 10, 2015 Share February 10, 2015 Talented but wildly unnecessary. But I've already said why in the News thread. 2 Link to comment
WendyCR72 February 10, 2015 Share February 10, 2015 I have nothing against Rebecca Budig as an actress, but we have ENOUGH people on GH as it is, and most are people who have actually been on for a while. How about writing for them? Oh, right. It's all about power grabs and newbies. History and things that make sense be damned. 7 Link to comment

mybabyaidan February 11, 2015 Share February 11, 2015 I freaking LOVE Rebecca. I am ecstatic over this. Greenlee and Leo were and will always remain my all time favorite soap couple. I even have old VHS edits of all of their scenes. I stopped watching AMC after a while, so I never really saw a lot of Greenlee and Ryan. I'll pretend that never happened. She found Leo and they are living happily in Paris. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RLNSUWcxtjw *sigh* 4 Link to comment
Chairperson Meow February 11, 2015 Share February 11, 2015 We have Greenlee because Ron got a new shiny actor. Billy Miller wanted to like act and stuff. Gah. He kept like questioning the script, plots, and character. Ugh. And TG is just..... look a shiny object. 1 Link to comment
Kitty Redstone February 11, 2015 Share February 11, 2015 I don't understand why they keep casting new people instead of writing good stories for the ones they already have. The way this show is ran is mind boggling. And infuriating. Bite your tongue! The only characters I have hated more than Lily were SWSNBN and Laura English on AMC. Lily is DEAD DEAD DEAD. DEAD. Oh how I hated Laura English! Not as much as SWSNBN, but it was very close. 5 Link to comment
Lola16 February 11, 2015 Share February 11, 2015 Pardon if this has already been mentioned, but my eyes are twitching from perusing all the spoilers on this board to see if it has been... "Michael files a wrongful death suit, step one in bringing Sonny down." http://www.generalhospitalcriticallist.com/Spoilers.html I think this is a great idea, and I love it. Bankrupt Sonny, at least for a little while. Well that list also has Ava shows up on Sabrina's doorstep asking for help when it turns out it's Carlos and Johnny. I do like some of the other spoilers. I forgot Ric is a lawyer so that explains why he's visiting Jake. Link to comment
ulkis February 11, 2015 Share February 11, 2015 Yeah, critical list is iffy. It just rounds up most of the spumors on the web and legitimate spoilers and puts them in one place. Link to comment
Tiger February 11, 2015 Share February 11, 2015 (edited) I'm glad that Anna & Ava are going to be back on-screen soon. This fuckery is so much more tolerable with those two around. And as much as I love Dante, he also isn't enough of a reason to keep tuning in. Edited February 11, 2015 by Tiger 2 Link to comment
peachmangosteen February 11, 2015 Share February 11, 2015 When should we expect them back? They do both immensely brighten up the show for me. 1 Link to comment

tvgoddess February 12, 2015 Share February 12, 2015 I can't speak for Silas, but without Ava he would be in no man's land. He has no story whatsoever. He's done with Sam, he's done with Nina, he has no friends, nothing in his life except Kiki. It's been how long since he started, and he's gone absolutely nowhere. What else would they do with him? Treat a cancer patient once every six months? I'm personally not happy about it, because I'm ready for him to leave the show. But I think this is (unfortunately for me) the only place he has to go right now. Otherwise, he has no purpose, medical degree or not. 2 Link to comment

Mrs. Stanwyck February 12, 2015 Share February 12, 2015 I mean the man barely had time for Nina his wife who he was a party to causing her coma I don't care about Silas at all; if he just disappeared and was never mentioned again, I don't think I would notice. That being said, while he was absolutely a shitty husband, he is in no way responsible for her coma. Madeline gave Nina the overdose because she was pregnant and Madeline didn't want there to be a Silas baby that could inherit the money. Nina did not overdose herself because of Silas's affair; she had made the decision to forgive him. Madeline is solely responsible for Nina's coma. Of course Silas would be stupid enough to risk his medical career to help her. Eh, every medical professional in Port Charles risks their medical career to help a criminal sooner or later. I'm surprised its not a prerequisite to getting your license. None of them seem to suffer any consequences for it. 6 Link to comment
33kaitykaity February 12, 2015 Share February 12, 2015 (edited) Greenlee????!!!!!! UGH Exactly. Kill me now. I stopped watching AMC because of Babe and Shouty McYellorson, but I hated Greenlee almost as much. Edited February 12, 2015 by 33kaitykaity 2 Link to comment
TeeVee329 February 12, 2015 Share February 12, 2015 (edited) So Rebecca Budig tweeted that she apparently is going to be in scenes with Ric/Rick Hearst. Huh, was not expecting that. Also, I saw SPECULATION that rang true to me that Budig will end up playing someone somebody hired to pose as Jake(son)'s wife. Edited February 12, 2015 by TeeVee329 Link to comment
Chanandler February 12, 2015 Share February 12, 2015 If that's true, I'm guessing Ric is probably the one who hires her, as a way to keep Jake away from Liz. Sounds right up his alley. Argh, I just realized this buys them yet more time to keep dragging out this Jason reveal. Link to comment
HeatLifer February 12, 2015 Share February 12, 2015 I have a feeling the Jase reveal won't happen until late this year, possibly October. And then BM will leave. Lolz. 2 Link to comment
Chanandler February 12, 2015 Share February 12, 2015 NGL, I kind of want BM to leave as soon as his contract expires. It would serve Cartini right- they've done nothing with him or this story. I also want to see how Ron would take out his petty frustrations of "how DARE he leave when the story was just heating up? No, really, it was! He should've trusted in my brilliance, waah!" in the writing. And on Twitter. 8 Link to comment
dubbel zout February 12, 2015 Share February 12, 2015 You know that's exactly what would happen, and Ron would also plead that he has to write for the other characters, too. THEN STOP ADDING NEW CHARACTERS. Jesus. 6 Link to comment
