Well, the Malone interview in question has been scrubbed because it was done by Nelson Branco, and TV Guide Online destroyed all that material. Otherwise I'd quote it. It was from fall 2008 - Malone was asked about the Todd/Marty rapemance storyline on OLTL, and he said very specifically that he was there when Ron was brought onto the show. Malone did work with Jean Passanante at that time.

Maxie to Lulu: How could you do this to me?

Every day, a new reason for me to want to punch Maxie in the vagina.

Could Delia have had a child before Johnno? Yes. Could that child have been fathered by someone else? Yes. Especially if it occurred one night, let's say, when Pat and Delia had had an argument, and Delia had sex with a guy (who turned out to be Jerome) in order to "punish" Pat. However, I have a hard time believing Delia would not at least have been tempted to pass off the child as Pat's in order to hide her ONS and keep her tied to the Ryans -- which, after all, seemed to be her whole reason for living. If she could have faked blindness in order to hold onto the guy, she could have pretended Ava was his daughter as well.

I agree but dee said today she had Ava prior to marrying Frank. I cant remember were Dee & Pat together b4 she married Frank?

Wow. And I had assumed he had relocated to LA - and that Jean had left some time ago. Interesting.

This was right before Robin premiered onscreen. He clued me in to tune in and watch for the surprise. He still lives in NYC and writes remotely. Frank does live in LA now. He was very nice, and very willing to chat. In fact, I had to to break off the convo as I was late for a conference call. It was a real treat, and he has been cordial since.

I believe Patty was always Dee's first choice, but she settled for Frank because he was more ambitious and Patty didn't really want her.

Careful not to hit any brain cells!

Thats what I remember as well

Ilene Kristen comments at SOD Online:

I made up a little backstory for myself that a lot of her dreams had not come true, that she was working over at Ryan’s and had to go back to a place that maybe she didn’t want to go back to. The most important thing that I believe that I did when I did GENERAL HOSPITAL was show her vulnerability, because that is what Delia always had, a tremendous amount of vulnerability.

There's apparently more in the newsstand edition.

How I would have done the GH's Ava Jerome is RH's Delia Reid Ryan's daughter. I would have made Ava younger than John Reid Ryan as I said before however,remember when Ilene left in Nov 83. Frank had set up that job & Dee left town and then Robin Mattson became Delia in June 84?


Well I would have wrote/rewritten that Dee had an affair with Victor in summer 83 but found out he was dangerous and ended things. Then in Nov 83 she learns she is 3-4 months pregnant. She tells Frank. Both are worried that Victor could hurt Johnny that Frank sends out of town on a ruse she got a job. Dee has the baby in spring 84 and meets up with Matthew crane. Matt learns of her story & helps get the baby adopted to protect Ava. He then falls for Delia and Matt & Delia plan to marry. Delia sees as a way to get money.

She then returns to RH in June 84 (Robin Mattson as Dee) married to Matthew just how it appeared on screen

Cast of GH at ABC's Casino Night

My god, Tyler looks like Stuart Damon with those glasses

Mr. Valentini needs some sun.

Roger's turtleneck is hideous.

Frank - a very attractive man - has looked a lot better.

Patrick was Delia's first in high school. She only ended up with Frank because she wanted to remain in the Ryan family. Once Frank tossed her over for Jill and Patrick was back in NYC and more accessible she got him back for a time.

Ron looks like one of those "eccentric" puppeteers who popped up on variety shows in the 50s.

The less I have to see Tyler's hideous tattoos and the more he avoids resembling The Thing, the better he looks.
