  1. I feel bad for Jen. It was always temporary but it had been so long.

  2. Hopefully Jen will get snapped up somewhere else. Too bad she can't stay on General Hospital. This is a bittersweet situation since I'm glad Kirsten's coming back but I really like Jen. I wish her the best.

  3. Such a class act. I really like her. Though at the same time I'm happy Kirsten is returning

  4. Well, I for one am disappointed. Jen Lilley is a hundred times a better actress than Kirsten Storms. Jen made Maxie layered and interesting. Now we go back to one-note Maxie with the highly untalented Storms.

  5. I am not happy , Jen Lilly is more my favorite #Maxie . Her bubbly personality appears on screen everytime . I wish Kirstin had been asked to return to #Days

  6. If Sarah Brown can come to GH and NOT play carly, than why can't storms? I LOVED jEN, She reminded me as a Heather in Training (a Young Mary O'Brien). Send Storms Back to Days!

  7. I think that Jen Lilley is the definitely the better of the two. She gave Maxie real layers and personality. I felt like she was going to take the character somewhere instead of never moving forward. I will miss her terribly. I think they are making a huge mistake letting Kirstin come back. Jen just did it better.

  8. Wow, I am sure Jen is a great person and maybe a good actress but not as Maxie. I tried to give Jen a chance but could not get used to her. I am so so so happy that Maxie is finally going to come back. Jen just could not pull if off. She was to wining and not sassy like Kirsten. They dressed her so badly. Maybe Jen can create her own character and Kirsten can finally bring Maxie back.

  10. I really loved Jen, i just started watching GH in feb, when the OLTL characters came over... i do love Kirsten too, she was the original Belle on DOOL, my favorite soap... Hmmm... Lightbulb goes off... What if Days were to bring her on as Belle, and Jason Cook as Shawn D! ?? (i thought it was a good idea... LOL)
