There is another upcoming return - an obscure old school GH character who was not a BIG name in the past ???

Demi Moore bringing Jackie Templton? Jackie was the reporter on the Susan Moore murder case in 1983

Mark Hamill?

I'm stumped!

John Stamos? Will Blackie FINALLY be released from prison after decades serving time for a crime he didn't commit? FREE BLACKIE!

My first thought was Demi Moore as well. But why would she really? Unless she had a good quick story with Tony Geary and/or Tristan Rogers it wouldn't make sense.

Most of GH's "famous" alums are just annoying to watch (Moore, Janine Turner, Stamos), and I'm not sure they'd come back anyway.

They should try to bring back Joe Kelly.

My first thoughts were Demi Moore and John Stamos, too.

Demi Moore is still recovering from her breakdown.

Blackie had no ties to anyone on the show now.

Oddly enough, John Stamos DID actually did return briefly in 1992 (when he was still on Full House) as himself, I think for something involving the grand opening of Deception, as he appeared with Julia Barrett and Scott (aren't JS and Kin Shriner still friends in real life?).

Who knows if anything was said about his resemblance to Blackie, though. Even a prison joke or two .

I don't think the OP necessarily meant that it would be an actor who is a big star in hollywood in the present...they likened this return to OLTL bringing back Irene Manning. FWIW - hell if I know.

Wasn't there something about Thaao Penghlis saying he would be open to returning to GH? Maybe if the Cassadine feud is coming back maybe it's his Cassadine character.

John Stamos?

That's what I thought, too, at first. But wasn't JS a hot commodity among GH fans BITD? I'm interpreting this to mean it's someone whom GH fans were, at best, lukewarm about back then, but who has since gone on to do great stuff.

Think in terms of camp characters who would appeal to RC.

They don't even have to be camp - he can make them campy. I'm sure Rose Kelly is running a brothel in Bensonhurst as we speak. Cue Comedy Connie turning tricks.

Could "BIG" being in bold be some sort of pun clue? Like, someone named "Tiny" or whatever?
