They used the rich history of these people that we love so much to tell a great show today that set the foundation for many show to come. Past, present and future. This whole GH50 celebration, using the veteran actors for all of these weeks, working the fantastic history of the show back into the current stories in such a relevant way, has been wonderful.

My mother was a loyal fan (never missed an episode even without VCR and PVR) until she passed in 2009. Today's episode was amazing and brought back wonderful memories that my mother would have enjoyed immensely. To the writers, producers, actors, and everyone else involved, thank you from the bottom of my heart. I hope it lasts another 50 years!Arlene Thttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13522043966928796065noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2585163331194032530.post-45029789520647609592013-04-02T22:39:59.675-04:002013-04-02T22:39:59.675-04:00So Happy they finally brought everyone back.

So much of the stuff touched upon in this episode, from Audrey remembering Steve, to Laura and Ethan's talk, to the mentions of the various Hardys to Rick and Alan burying the hatchet in the afterlife - all would never have been touched on by the previous regime. And they were all done and done well in ONE HOUR!<br /><br />Kudos to Carlivati and Valentini and everyone involved. Thank you so much for giving me back the GH I have loved since the 70s.<br /><br />And we need Natalia Livingston back full time. She lights up every single scene she is in. Damn, what a mistake it was to kill Emily.Wings1295https://www.blogger.com/profile/08045644215235749353noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2585163331194032530.post-45110098124570731612013-04-02T18:42:00.971-04:002013-04-02T18:42:00.971-04:00A great episode from the Epiphanny talking to her ...A great episode from the Epiphanny talking to her friend Doris about her husband Frank to finding Ethan, to Audrey remembering Steve... all excellent!<br /><br />I have simple demands as a soap viewer-- give me the characters I love, honor their history and keep me entertained.

A marvelous celebration of the show! If only As The World Turns had been treated with the same love and care. Bob and Kim move to Arizona? I can't picture it. There should have been a huge, happy party for Doctor Bob's retirement. But no. The final months of the show saw beloved characters with rich histories being greatly ignored while Goutman kept the focus firmly on his new personal little pet (Doctor Arrogant Neurosurgeon). What a waste and what a shame!! I truly apologize for being negative - but on days like this how deeply cheated I felt by the final months of ATWT comes rushing back. Back to the topic at hand - raising a glass to the brilliant General Hospital!Cherylhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16659771509509165718noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2585163331194032530.post-7055099559159769472013-04-02T16:21:10.378-04:002013-04-02T16:21:10.378-04:00zyx * Ray, teared up here too!
