I must hand it to JZ. I don't think I would be as positive and optimistic as she is.

I hope the new writers continue to use her but I figure she'll be reactionary again, if on at all. Sigh.

Didn't they use Traci and Jill when they were at Y&R?

That's true. They did. And both went MIA the second Pratt came aboard.

I'll try to be optimistic when it comes to JPiss and Altman but my expecatations are low. Not that I'll miss Ron but I have nothing to be excited about by Altman and Pissanante.

But Frank is still there so there's some hope the recurring vets get used. Piss wrote for Lynn Herring on ATWT, I believe, right?

Yeah she did

JZ is always incredibly positive, I hope she continues to get written for - if only to provide an income to her.

Great interview! Love Jackie, I sincerely hope Bobbie sticks around. LMAO at the below.

Luke came to Port Charles some 37 years ago to help his sister Bobbie get Scott Baldwin away from Laura … and all to herself! What do you recall about meeting Tony for the first time, and upon hearing he would be coming to GH to play your on-screen brother?

JACKIE: I was excited! I was living in Beverly Hills, and I was driving to work down the hill of Coldwater Canyon to go to the studio, and a rock hits my windshield. It sounded like a gunshot! So there is a hole now in my corvette, which I had at the time. I then had a flash before my eyes. It’s a flashback of a past life in France, except that Tony is a woman and I am a man. It’s 100 years ago, and we are getting on stage and in the scene he gets shot, but I am assuming it was an acting scene where he gets shot and not real. It was the weirdest thing! And just the night before, I had been in my bedroom in Beverly Hills and this Indian appears as I am meditating and said, “Tony”. So I knew he meant Tony Geary. I then remember going into work and thinking, “Oh, God. I don’t do drugs, I don’t drink, and I never even smoked pot. Tony is going to think I am off my rocker, but I have to tell him about this.” I am such a boring person when it comes to things like that. I am not a party girl at all. So I go, “Tony, an Indian came into my room at night and said ‘Tony’ (Laughs). And I don’t know why, but I know he meant you.” (Laughs) Tony responds, “Oh, yeah. I have a spiritual guide that’s Indian, so thank you, I will check in with him.” I continue on and go, “I know this is going to sound really weird, and I swear I don’t take drugs, but I was driving this morning and a rock hit my car. Come with me to the parking lot.” So, I take Tony to the parking lot and I show him the front of my corvette with what looks like a bullet hole on it. And I say, “So it sounded like a gunshot when it hit, and what I saw was you were a woman and I was a man. We were on a stage in France and we were speaking French.” And Tony looks at me and goes: “Oh! I was doing some past life regression last night with a therapist, which was about the life that I had in France many, many hundreds of years ago.” So, he and I have had connections in different lifetimes! And, probably this won’t be the last. (Laughs)

I love her.

I just hope she doesn't continue to use the little she's making off her recurring appearances on her face again. Her face looked positively revolting during this stint, moreso than it did the last time she was on.

I really think if not for what she's done to herself she would appear more.

I thought she looked okay in the scenes with Brytni but then when she was on with Tony, it was just like whaaaaaaaaaaaat just happened. I think the same goes for Leslie, she would probably be on more too were it not for her incessant plastic surgeries.

I think Leslie looks worse than Jackie At this point

Actually, at this point, I think it's neck-and-neck (...and chin-and-chin...and eyelid-and-eyelid...).

It's ridiculous because I think a large part of why Leslie was off screen for six months was because she had multiple procedures again. I'm not sure how long it takes to recover fully from these but it was blatantly obvious she had more work done since last December. I actually think she looks a bit better this go-round though, they fixed some of the issues from her last round.

I still don't understand why Jackie and Leslie decided to go under the knife
