Didn't the strike writers get rid of her?

If so, then God bless those dirty rotten scabs, lol.

I have thought for years Alexis falling for a woman would be a great idea. I think NLG would be game if they cast it well. She and the actor playing Harmony clearly imbued their scenes with a kind of sexual tension. No idea if the scripts were going there and they stopped it, or if the actors played it that way on the floor and the show ran away from it from that angle.

I didn't know JDP was on GH. Or I forgot. It might have been interesting seeing him paired with NLG, but I can't blame anyone who is wary of a recurring romance (look how much good it's done for Genie Francis).

I've seen a number of fans asking why the show isn't letting Alexis get her Natasha on with Drew. I guess she isn't an important enough character to TPTB for that to happen. I hope she might get her lick back someday with him. I've found the scenes where Alexis tries to help her grandkids (especially poor Scout, who is currently living the life Little Orphan Annie lived every time Daddy Warbucks was lost at sea or presumed dead) moving in large part due to NLG. I sometimes wonder if Alexis compares their situation to hers - helpless children being crushed by an abusive patriarch.

Honestly he just looked haggard and uncomfortable in the role to me. I didn't buy him as a doctor and it was an odd fit for JDP from the beginning. He looks better recently, with a beard etc.

I do like those scenes for Alexis too even if I'll never care about Scout, but yes that is a very accurate description of her current predicament lol. I do wish they'd have Alexis talk about the Cassadine parallels.

Scene from around 1971 between Peter Hansen and Elizabeth MacRae.

Thanks so much @jam6242 . For some reason that uploader takes their stuff down and reuploads it again and again (maybe copyright) so this hasn't been up in a while.

Thanks @jam6242 That episode aired the week of Jan 11-15 1971,going by the promo for the Arthur Godfrey special which aired Sat Jan 16.

Great scene! The direction it took totally took me by surprise, because to my eyes Meg seemed to be acting like a pretty typical early 70s soap character, gossiping and meddling in other characters' love lives. So the last thing I expected to hear was Lee's eminently reasonable suggestion that she go see a psychotherapist because she's overinvested in these other people's lives.
