I don't think it's a bad move. Who knows what will happen. Jason and Kirsten had a huge fan base that will follow them over at GH. It sure beats watching another mob storyline! Or another Lulu storyline! It's not like it's going to bring GH's ratings down they got the mob wars for that.

Oh his character will somehow end up in Lulu's orbit. Every male character in that age range always does.

They had Disney channel chemistry. The type of stuff Id see on Hannah Montana.

OMG. Shawn and Belle reunited. Too bad for Spinelli, no way they hired him for anyone other than Maxie.

I bet Days hires Ted King for Tamara Braun next.

Jason Cook Joins "General Hospital"

Huge news: SOAPnet.com can exclusively confirm that Jason Cook is joining the cast of "General Hospital." Jason is best known as Shawn Brady, the "Days of Our Lives" character he played from 1999 to 2006. Shawn was one half of "Shawn and Belle," known by longtime fans as "Shelle" -- the pair who put the "super" back in supercouple in fictional Salem. And just who played Belle? That's right: Kirsten Storms, aka resident "General Hospital" fashionista Maxie Jones.

Jason will be playing a doctor who joins the staff at Port Charles's infamous hospital; no first airdate has been set, but he'll likely start appearing in June. We CAN tell you his character will be crossing paths with Maxie very early on. Could there be a "Shelle" redux? You'll have to stay tuned for more details!

What do you think is in store for Jason and his character?

Really? REALLY?!

Okay, I swear, I'm not putting anyone down. God knows I've liked a LOT of characters others hated. (I even came around to Jeremy Horton about two seconds before he was fired, so that tells you how "strong" my tastes are.) But really? Jason and Kirsten had, like, show-following fandom? I mean - Stephen and Mary Beth, I get. Lane and Nancy - I get. But Jason and Kirsten? Really?

They always struck me as a pair that Corday WANTED DESPERATELY for us to treat in that fashion. But they actually made it? They actually crossed that finish line?

I'm stunned.

And Ryan, I guess you're forgiven. You're so on probation though. "that guy who played Cameron" I'll kick your ass. Next I know, you'll be saying "that chick who played Lucy Coe" And then you're dead to me.

I thought he was the perfect Shawn. Not the best actor, but he fit the role and had great chemistry with his parents. I never liked Brandon Beemer in the role. Glad he's back on soaps!

Oh, I liked him. I liked him just fine. But I'd never follow him to another show. He made a decent Shawn, but that's about it.

About the same way I liked Brandon. Shawn-D is a thankless role, but if you can pull it off with some integrity (which JC and BB both did), without seeming like you don't give a rat's ass, then you've done your job.

Still, I reiterate - Jason Cook is playing A DOCTOR?! Jason. Cook. Went to college for 8 years and did a three year intership. At a hospital.

Wow. I know all about suspension of disbelief, but still...

I think what hurt ALL versions of this pairing is that as soon as they were together, there was something or someone pulling them apart. Jan, Colin Murphy shooting, Mya, Jan again, Philip, Mimi and the list could go on. Corday wanted to be a couple destined to be together, but he was constantly having torn apart, it gets to the point it is hard to cheer for them.

But I did sort of chuckle at a thought. I bet Corday is crying about this because you know deep down he was hoping to get the original verison of Shelle back and you know if could have done it he would of. Now if only Martha and Brandon get picked up by another soap, Corday will have to complete recast the couple AGAIN and that would probably kill whatever fanbase they had.
