 Comments

A former All My Children star is checking into General Hospital, while a popular leading man exits in a most unusual way. And the DAYS cast shakeup continues. Here’s everything you missed in the daytime world –with links, in the Soap Hub soap opera news wrap.

New Role for Knight
A longtime All My Children favorite is heading to General Hospital. Find out about Michael E. Knight’s upcoming move to Port Charles. Could he bring Tad the Cad to town to make us all swoon?

Bye-Bye Drew
Billy Miller’s GH alter-ego Drew Cane slipped out of Port Charles to return stolen money to Afghanistan and to find Andre Maddox. But is that really the last we’ve seen of the popular actor? If Peter’s phone call meant anything, then probably.

Days Shakeup
It seems like another major cast member is leaving Days of Our Lives every month. The question is, how will all the exits affect the show? While some performers aren’t on contract at all.

Ghost Story
Haley Erin has been gone but not forgotten as GH’s Kiki Jerome. So it was great to see her back, even as a spirit or a figment of Ava’s imagination. GH left it to the audience to decide what was really happening.

Praise Be
Robin Strasser hasn’t even started airing yet as DAYS’ new Vivian — she debuts in September. But she’s already praising the show’s cast. She also wants fans to know she is not the one who leaked word on her temporary take over as Vivian.

Giving Back
After being diagnosed with skin cancer earlier this summer, Alison Sweeney (ex-Sami, DAYS) has teamed up with Stand Up To Cancer. She’s sharing tips on how you can screen for early signs of trouble.

GH Reunions
Bryan Craig, remembered as GH’s Morgan, was recently reunited with one of his former soap co-stars — well, actually two — to his new primetime show, Grand Hotel. Think a fellow Corinthos family member whose paternity the audience has questioned for years.

Vinessa Antoine (ex-Jordan, GH), who’s shooting the second season of her Canadian hit series, Diggstown, welcomed a Port Charles star to her show, too. It’s someone who works at soap’s hospital, but is it a nurse or a doctor?

The Best Man
Josh Swickard (Chase, GH), who recently got married, had a very special best man at his wedding. It’s a family member, but probably one you’d never expect. Click to have your heart melt.

Double Take
Kiara Barnes, who plays Zoe on The Bold and the Beautiful, has a brand new onscreen gig. Find out why commuting to it so easy for her.

Reasons to Celebrate
Jordi Vilasuso is grateful for his latest soap role, playing Y&R cop Rey Rosales. And the actor recently celebrated a special Genoa City anniversary. Meanwhile, his co-star Bryton James (Devon) is blowing out some birthday candles.
