Last Year's GH Predictions (2023)


Ok everyone. Here are LAST YEARS Predictions. Let's go over them and see how we did. (Our current comments are in RED) 



It's that time of year again when we make our predictions for next year. Every year we hope a few come true, but they rarely do. I had two last year that I do believe made it, if you stretch your imagination a bit.


Jeff Webber will finally arrive. The actor will be someone most of us know, but he will not be someone with a daytime history.

Nailed it. William Moses from Falcon Crest took over the part.

The Nurse's Ball returns. However, it will be totally re-imagined and radically different than the past. Fans revolt.

It was different. Fans didn't revolt though.




Dave: GH will pull out all the stops for the 60th anniversary. It will coincide with the Nurses Ball. They will invite anyone who ever acted on the show to come and sit in the audience for the ball. In between scenes current actors will interview former actors in the audience asking them about their time on GH.

Karen: I hope they will absolutely have an "interview" session with past/present actors, maybe a Prime Time Special!! PLEASE!! So many reboots are happening and past actors visiting the nostalgic past, I would love a huge retrospect of GH. 


Was there a 60th anniversary celebration? Did I blink?
THERE WILL be a PRIME TIME Celebration January 4th from 10pm-11pm est 

Dave: Jax will be recast by actor Trevor Donovan

Karen: Um, I had to Google Trevor Donovan!!  But alas, I do not want a Jax recast. I would love for JERRY Jacks to make a stop in Port Charles as part of Victor's Ice Princess Climate Plan. 

Neither showed up, but here is hoping for 2024.
KAREN SAYS: no to JASPER JACKS !!
YES TO JERRY JACKS BUT ONLY IF IT'S SEBASTIAN ROCHE! 


Dave: Said it last year and I am trying it again. They WILL redo the opening theme song and credits to something cohesive and pleasing to listen to and will debut on April 1. Respect the past, please.

Karen: Ditto 

Nothing. They need to bring back the original music, but with newer contemporary images.


Dave: Leslie C. will retire. The role will be recast, but she will only be onscreen sporadically as needed.

Karen: I predict that they will unfortunately treat Monica like they do Audrey. Just "there" but not "there". 

We both lost...Leslie showed up! Once, but she was there! 


Dave: Tracy's time the show will increase. They will offer Jane a good storyline in the Spring and she will take it.

Karen: OH I hope so. She can be helping with the Ethan situation or something and be in Europe so she doesn't risk being arrested in PC. 

This is a win. Tracy has been on a lot this year. Not bad for someone who left the show to semi-retire.


Dave (and Karen agrees) Sam and Dante go to Las Vegas, party too hard, and get married by an Elvis impersonator (John Stamos cameo) at a little chapel on the strip. While they are saying their vows, the camera cuts to Lulu in bed starting to move her hand. (Soap 101, kids) This leads to...

Lulu (Julie) returns and the drama is there with Dante remarried. (see above)

This didn't happen. But I really really want it to. Especially the John Stamos part!


Dave: (and Karen's biggest wish!! ) Michael and Willow move to Paris to head up ELQ Europe

Fingers crossed 2nd year in a row.


Dave: Yet another takeover of ELQ is initiated. This time it is Mike Webber, president of Barrington Enterprises.

Note from Karen: Oh, great idea! We'd have to call him Mickey because TOO MANY MIKE's! 

Didn't happen. But was a good prediction.


Dave:  A new character will be introduced as a possible love interest for Sonny.

She wasn't new. She was more like rented..

Karen:  My new character prediction will be someone from Sasha's past. Unfortunately if they are going to keep her, I think this card will have to come out. 

Well, this didn't happen unless... Cody is her twin! They haven't kissed yet so there's hope. 



Will THIS be the year Rebecca Buding is enticed to come back? 

No.



Aiden will need some medical procedure that Jeff is an expert with...OR need an organ donation thus reuniting the Webber fam. (guest appearance by Sarah) . NOTE: This was the latest Aidan (Enzo DeAngelis) and I have no idea what he'll look like next!! 

Didn't Happen... BUT!! HE DID COME OUT THIS YEAR!! WOOT!! 


        Rena Sofer is no longer on Bold and the Beautiful. Will Lois pay a visit? You betcha.

"Nail"ed it. Get it? I crack myself up. Welcome back sweetie.

    No wait!!! Dave you were not wrong! She didn't retire, but the role was recast for like a day! Or was it 2 days? So you were half right. :)

    "YES TO JERRY JACKS BUT ONLY IF IT'S SEBASTIAN ROCHE!"

    YES PLEASE YES! :D


    "Dave: (and Karen's biggest wish!! ) Michael and Willow move to Paris to head up ELQ Europe"

    Nahhhhhhhhh. They both stay, but they break up. Then Francesca shows back up and Michael and Francesca start dating!!! They only had 1 date a few years ago.

    OH! And Maxie realizes she still loves Spinny, and they get back together!!!! :)

Sunday Surgery: Rude Awakening

  Such a frustrating week for me!! GH can be so good, then so uneven and just plain plodding along that it baffles the mind. I felt like Thu...
