You Knew It Was Coming! Faison Is BACK On General Hospital!



The writing’s been on the wall for weeks, as Faison has not yet been seen but he is the talk of the town on General Hospital (GH).

In fact, we already know that he’s been in town, but daughter Britt said he recently took off again. Felicia (Kristina Wagner) suggested he might be right on Spoon Island hanging out and she could be right. Perhaps Faison has been around all along.

And, according to published reports, we’ll soon get to see him. Actor Anders Hove made his way back to the states from his home in Denmark for another go around as the deranged villain whose obsession with Anna goes back to the 1990s.

Everyone in Port Charles seems to be after Faison for their own reasons, so with so many people trying to find him, he was bound to make an appearance.


Jason (Steve Burton) wants answers as to why Faison kept him away for five years. Nathan (Ryan Paevey) wants to confront the father he never knew he had.
  
And well, Anna (Finola Hughes) just wants this man out of her life for good. She keeps thinking it happens, but he always seems to come back.

We also expect to see more of the dynamic between Faison and Obrecht (Kathleen Gati), especially since she clearly knows where he is and has been in touch with him in recent weeks.

Will we see more Kelly Thiebaud as Britt, as well? We guess time will tell.

But, it certainly looks like a February to remember coming up as Finding Faison becomes Faison Found. Buckle up, Port Charles, because it’s sure to be quite a ride.

General Hospital (GH) airs weekdays on ABC. Check your local listings for airtimes.

The Young and the Restless Spoilers (Photos): Life-Changes And Realizations!



The Young and the Restless Spoilers (YR) reveal Hilary coming to a stark realization about motherhood. Elsewhere, Cane and Lily make their decision.

It takes all day (after a night of love-making) for the Ashbys to finally decide on their future. It’s not what Cane wants, but it’s more than he can ask for.

Tune in tomorrow to find out what happens to our fan favorites in Genoa City. The Young and the Restless airs weekdays on CBS. Check your local listing for air times.

General Hospital WILD Speculation: Did Anna Give Faison A Son????

The idea is enough to creep any longtime fan out, but imagine if Anna gave birth to Faison’s son once upon a time and doesn’t even remember. Or worse–she DOES remember but had to give her child up because the idea was so horrifying? We think one or the other happened on General Hospital (GH).

It seems pretty clear that Peter August is the “other” son Sonny, Jason, and Spinelli are looking for, but Publisher Peter has to have a mother, right? He didn’t just hatch. Even Petri Dish Baby Charlotte had to have a mom and Lulu fit the bill.

And, we all know how utterly obsessed Faison was with Anna, a woman who had quite a few missing years. We really do not know what happened to Anna those years she was presumed dead.

Perhaps she had amnesia briefly and was willingly with Faison. Perhaps he raped her. Or maybe she was inseminated. Any of those things could result in bouncing baby Peter nine months later.


But, what did Anna then do with her alleged child? Was he taken from her because Faison wanted a son? Did she give him up to a family willing to adopt him?
  
Or, did she block the whole ordeal out of her mind and doesn’t even know she has another child out there?

While we’d always hoped Griffin would end up being Anna’s, Peter being Anna’s would be much more interesting because with Faison as the father, the emotional conflict would be tenfold for her.
Maybe Peter is even the one with Drew’s memories in a disco ball, Anna’s own disco ball given to her by Andre. That is certainly a way to connect the two characters before they ever learn they’re related–but perhaps Peter already knows…

Of course, this is just speculation, but if it’s true, it could rock Port Charles.

Liam, Steffy and Bill:  Emmy-winning performances this week as Liam saw the paternity test in Steffy’s purse and demanded to know why she needed one.  Scott Clifton was phenomenal and the look on Liam’s face as Steffy was forced to tell Liam she slept with his father, was priceless.  Jacqueline MacInnes Wood also gave a phenomenal performance as she and Liam teetered on the edge of doom in their marriage. Don Diamont gave one hell of a performance as he tried to convince Liam to do what is right by his and Steffy’s child, despite the betrayal he felt from Steffy and Bill.
