I never thought I would see Lane Davis again.😍

That SOD sweeps article is mostly summaries of current character conflicts we're aware of, and they mention the wedding and the people arriving for the wedding, which we mostly knew about.  Seems like the SOD staff is mostly just summarizing  stuff we know?
As Vee said, we can guess at the death.  The new person is the only thing new.
Even the photo is old.  That pic of Ava/Carly/Sonny is from the March 28 episode.
I mean it's clearly not a preview of the month, because half the cast isn't mentioned.

Maybe Korte/Mulcahey will give their own preview in a few weeks? Either to SOD or to tvguide/tvinsider.

These were my thoughts as I read it. Probably the new person is Gio.

So will we get a tongue in cheek comment how he looks like Zander's dad lol 

I'm wondering that myself.  Will they make the connection or...?

I hate this. I love this!

I haven't watched GH in an eternity. I am/was a Mason/Julia uberfan! And I loved the potential of Cameron/Alexis, but Guza wrecked that.

I don't want to watch GH again, damn it! But now I may have to. Hey, if Michael Easton and Roger Howarth can play multiple characters, so can freakin' Lane Davies!

With Patrick Mulcahey being responsible for so much M/J goodness on SB, this intrigues me.

Wow.  I loved Mason & Julia on Santa Barbara!

It's total bait-casting, of course, but Mason/Julia on SB meant an awful lot to this nerdy kid back in the day. And with Patrick Mulcahey writing? I'm already intrigued.

This Lane Davies and Mason & Julia fan gave a little yippee. 

I'm all for it, but didn't they try to do Lane & Nancy on GH back in 2003, 2004? Why did it not work then?

I felt that it didn't quite have the 'it' factor until the end of his run, by which time Lane's time on GH was already marked. And the end felt rushed, with GH desperate to squeeze some of the old chemistry out one last time before his character Cameron was bumped off.

Lane had great chemistry with Chad Bannon who played his son.

It was a disappointment because HW Bob Guza was part of the Santa Barbara brain trust (a breakdown writer at one time), and Mulcahey was a breakdown writer for GH and had penned Julia & Mason's greatest scenes on SB. 2003/2004 was deep in Sonny/Jason/Carly era, though, and Guza was obsessed with The Good Mob. Everything else was just a peripheral illustration of how hard 'love in wartime' is when you are Sonny Corinthos and Jason "box of pain" Morgan.

I think the character worked at the outset and the chemistry was definitely there, but the scenes often devolved into Cameron scolding and castigating Alexis bc of the show's attitude towards her at the time. Then came the humiliating fake DID and Dobson stories for Alexis which he got caught up in which made it worse (Zander sees Cameron kissing "Dobson" and thinks he's gay, haha!). By the end of that he was just irrelevant. But I never thought LD didn't work on the show or that they couldn't make a good pairing. It was the scripts and stories.

We need a new thread for May

 

 

I know @Vee is happy not to have to see Enzo's "Easy-Bake 'fro" anymore.
