I'm not saying recycle characters lol!  But I'm saying it's time to start reinventing characters with the similar characteristics and personalities.  I'm hoping that the nurse, Amy, is Amy's daughter!  That would be a great tribute to the original character and actress.  It's just time to start looking at the past and yes making it modern, but get the soaps back to there glory where we were vastly entertained and invested.

Not really. This all sounds like yet another example of the current writers' lack of originality. At the very least, provide this recycled character a different name. I'm all for adding more characters to the hospital setting, and making greater use of the existing hospital-based characters, but this doesn't sound promising.

Risa%20Dorkin.jpgToday marks the first GH appearance of GH newbie Risa Dorken, who plays the role of Nurse Amy, a character who is an homage to Nurse Amy Vining, the long-running character played by the late Shell Kepler. Reports Minnesota native Dorken, “I’ve gone back and looked at old footage of her, but I’m not imitating her. It’s not supposed to be her, but it’s definitely a wink in her direction.” The actress is thrilled to have landed on the show her late grandmother was devoted to. "Every time I drive to the lot, you see the actual General Hospital sign, and just seeing that gives me butterflies in my stomach. I have to pinch myself that I’m actually there!” For more with Dorken, see the issue of Soap Opera Digest on sale now.
