If they are going to do this then they need to make Didi the mother. Didi was probably one of the big loves of Bo's life, and the actress was striking. She also looks like Rex. I'd like to see ghost Didi, and see how Bo interacts with her, and how Nora reacts to all this. Finally a female character from the past they can't kill off, she's already dead.

Thanks for that clip, Carl! Screw Nora, Didi was the love of Bo's life. That's my story and I'm stickin' to it. Didi, then Sara. Then Cassie. Then Megan. Then Delilah. I guess he loves Nora more than...um...Melanie.

Oh how I wish they would hire Liz Keifer to reprise her role of Didi's sister, Connie O'Neill, as Clint's next real love. Not that Connie and Clint ever had any real connection but I want Viki and Charlie to work things out and Clint to fall in love and JVD and LK have the kind of rare chemistry that I do think will translate even in different characters. Having her play Didi's sister again would just bring more texture to she and Clint's relationship with Bo.

Oh, this whole story was a waste of time, starting w/ Shane's need for a bone marrow match. What good did it do to have Rex tied to someone like Mitch Laurence? Were they worried fans didn't care enough about him, or about him and Gigi? Because, I have to tell you, making him Mitch's son didn't make me feel sorry for Rex. If anything, it just gave me a valid reason why he and Shane needed to leave, ASAP.

Frankly, I don't care if they ever resolve Rex's ongoing paternity/maternity issues. If he has to leave town to find out who he really belongs to, fine. If he decides he's happy as long as Bo is like a father to him, and Roxy like a mother, that's fine, too. Just shut up, ONE LIFE, and move the hell on!

Why did they even bother with any of this? Rex's paternity was better left a mystery than turned into this mess and now it's gonna get even messier AND make the whole bag-o-blood story even more nonsensical than it already was.

Sh-t like this makes me glad I dropped this show. Makes NO SENSE. Rex's paternity story was a mess from the getgo when they first introduced it as a red herring for stupid Paige's long lost son story. I don't know WHY they keep revisiting and rewriting it. They've thrown Walter Balsom, Spencer, Bo, David, Charlie and most recently Mitch at him. At this point no gives a flying rats ass who Rex's father. (actually no one gives a rats ass about Rex either) They think Rex is so great that I wouldnt be surprised if RC wrote it that Rex gave birth to himself in a daytime first.

Seriously, Rex is worthless and practically nobody cares anymore. Even fewer people give a damn who spawned him.

Even worse, with Rex no longer Roxie's son, ONE LIFE will have even less of a reason to keep Ilene Kristen around even in a recurring capacity. At this point, I wouldn't be surprised if they just stop referring to Roxie at all.

I hate this show so much.

Roxy's outlook ain't good, especially with Kyle gone. Roxy's relationship with Kyle was far more interesting and popular than the one she had with Rex.

I think it's [!@#$%^&*] ridiculous to rewrite Rex's paternity again and I don't believe it comes from the show, which invested three or four years in making Rex Mitch's kid eventually - I think it's another part of all these network purges and rewrites, to erase any trace of much of what's been going down. I don't know why the hell they would remove all Roxy's blood kin, but I suspect this was done by Frons to give "all those Rex fans" a big wish fulfillment fantasy with him being Bo's son after all. I assume Rex will be either Didi's, or "the real Drew Buchanan."

Just tired. Another Buchanan, and Roxy without any sons, not even surrogate boy Kyle. Sad.

There's a lot of story potential if they bring Connie back w/Liz K, give her roots in the community, have Rex as Didi's, have this as being during a time of horrible trauma Bo probably does not even like to think about (being imprisoned), and have Bo react very badly to Rex being a memory of that time. Use this to undercut the Bo/Rex relationship, which is very lazily written and all about propping, and build it back up. Use this to cause some new story for Bo and Nora. See how Matthew deals with yet another long lost son of Bo's. Bring back Becky Lee to talk to Rex about Drew, and use this as a way to honor history.

I know that none of this is likely, and it will probably just be two lines and then Rex and Bo hug and go back to having the same scenes they always have, but there's a way to make something valid for all the characters involved if the show makes the effort.

it's really sad that Roxie is most likely the next to go....her only friend: GONE, her first son: NOT HERS, her real son: LEAVING....what's left? look for her to be the next to go..

horrible.

I don't mind a good twist in paternity once in awhile but this is ridiculous. Sky is LEAVING, there is NO point to this. If they kept him around, this would be great. Now we find out he's actually Roxy's and within a month he's dead. What's the point?

And who's Rex's father? At this point, who cares?

At this point, I'm willing to accept anyone, even Victor Lord, as his father, just so we can move the hell on!!!!

Crossover! John Paul Lavoisier and his charater, Rex Balsom, makes his way to General Hospital and All My Children in search of his real mother and father. Who will turn out to be the proud father? Adam Chandler as Rex is revealed to be his bastard son, first mentioned weeks ago.

I think he's one of Sonny missing children. Or RC going to say he's the father of Rex. That's my story & I'm sticking to it.

Rex is Clint's son, okay? No, I don't know how (he could be Rex's dad). Clint had some chick on the side (you know, while helping Viki resolve her Niki crisis) and Asa had his mistress' doctor, Walter Balsom, make sure no one found out about his bastard grandchild (until now). There. I'm satisfied. NEXT!

that'll last for about 2 months until they decide they want Rex to be with Jessica, so we will find out that the DNA tests were compromised and his paternity goes unresolved for a few months until its revealed that he's really John's son

He can still be with Jessica. Mitch is her biological father, not Clint.

I actually can see them making Rex John's son though. Imagine Natalie's reaction.
