GREAT LINES BY THE STARS AT THE GH LUNCHEON
SATURDAY, THE NANCY LEE GRAHN EVENT
Nancy Lee Grahn: If you don’t fit into the 18-35 demographic, as an actress, you don’t exist.
NLG: (about
the story lines) It seems like they
are making it up as they go along
Constance Towers: And
forgetting it as they go along.
CT: (when
NLG’s little girl put her dress over her head)
Look, she’s just like her mother.
NLG: I enjoy
stories with some foundation of reality. I
leave Passions for the 12-year-olds, then there’s Days, but then, GH froze the
world.
NLG: (referring
to times when Alexis has been written to do something very NOT Alexis)
I know when you guys know and I’m hating it as much as
you are.
NLG: We [the
Cassadines] all
have nicknames: Perplexis, Stuffy,
Tickolas, Queen of Darkness and the Popcicle.
CT and NLG: (when
asked what male character on the show they’d like to be)
Luke!
Wally Kurth: (when
asked what female character on the show he’d like to be)
Alexis, because she gets to kiss Wally all the time.
NLG: I’d
really like for motherhood to happen to Alexis.
I picture it like Diane Keaton in “Baby Boom.”
NLG: (told a
story about when her daughter kissed her for a long time and said, “Just like
Wally does”)
WK: Wait until
she starts opening her mouth.
WK: (referred
to GH as “The Sonny & Carly Show”)
WK: Tony Geary
has it in his contract that he can rewrite anything…and he DOES.
If everyone had carte blanche to rewrite, we’d have a pretty
interesting show!
SATURDAY, THE STEPHEN NICHOLS EVENT
Stephen Nichols: (when
asked “Boxers or briefs”) It
depends on what I’m wearing…or not wearing. Usually boxers, but not the baggy kind.
Stephen Nichols: (when
asked what he would name his volleyball if he was shipwrecked on a desert
island) Baby.
Stephen Nichols: You’ll
notice that the new regime is hiring a lot of new faces.
Disney has a budget. When
new people come on, old ones have to go.
SUNDAY, AT THE LUNCHEON
Billy Warlock: (when
asked if he wished Robin Christopher had not been cast as his sister)
You know it’s bad when the question you get is, “Isn’t it a shame
you can’t sleep with your sister?”
Maurice Benard: (when
asked why Sonny didn’t leave the cabin sooner)
I think he wanted to find out what was going on with all the white
dresses.
Stuart Damon: (when
asked if Monica and Alan would ever renew their vows) Who cares?
Vanita Harbor: (when
asked if she is able to stay in character when she is in the background scenes
of formal events) Actually, at one
point, John Lindstrom and I were talking about strip clubs.
Robert Kelker Kelly: (when
asked if Stavros is really the devil incarnate and if he has any redeeming
qualities) Yes and No.
Brad Maule: (when
asked if he is more afraid of Luke, Helena or Stavros:
Wendy Riche
But of all the fun stuff said by people
during a
fantastic weekend, the award for best line goes to:
Billy Warlock: I used to apologize for being on Baywatch, but compared to the crap on General Hospital lately, Baywatch is Shakespeare.
