LOOK WHO'S STALKING NOW
"Since the show, I've been stalking Tyler Christopher [Nikolas]," retorted newlywed Amanda Tepe (ex-Colleen).

John Reilly

WHAT A TRIP
John Reilly (ex-Sean) joked with the crowd that "Acting with Brian [Patrick Clarke, ex-Grant] was a trip. Usually, a good trip [laughs]. I miss GH, to tell you the truth. We had a great 12-year run."

Eileen Dietz
— THOMAS MONTALTO

THE HORROR OF IT ALL
Scream queen Eileen Dietz (ex-Sarah) shared, "I did one of the worst horror films of all time with Brian Patrick Clarke called Exorcism." "The worst," interjected Clarke.

Brian Gaskill

OUT OF GASKILL
"I'm back and forth between Los Angeles and Nashville," reported Brian Gaskill (ex-Rafe, PC). "They can drag me back [to soaps] all they want. If they come calling, I'll talk to them."

Ian Buchanan

SIR DUKE
Ian Buchanan (ex-Duke) remarked, "I was with Susan Flannery [Stephanie, B&B] in New York and we were walking down the street and somebody rolled down their car window and yelled, 'Duke forever!' And that was 20 years later."

Lindze Letherman
|
GEORGIE GIRL
Lindze Letherman (ex-Georgie) said, "I miss the show every day. I still keep in touch with Kirsten Storms [Maxie]. We went through a lot. I heard Maxie and Spinelli are getting it on. I can't blame her if he can't have me and wants second best [laughs]."

Robert LaSardo
— THOMAS MANTALTO
|
GOOD BAD GUY
Robert LaSardo (ex-Mateo/ex-Manny) revealed, "Father Mateo had to go to Louisiana to be in a horror movie called Autopsy. That was why I left. The fans are incredible. They want to know, 'When are you coming back? We miss you.' It really warms my heart."

Jon Lindstrom
|
REUNION STATION
Jon Lindstrom (ex-Kevin/ex-Ryan, GH/PC) grinned, "It feels like we're at a high school reunion."

Jason Gerhardt

FLOWN THE COOP
Jason Gerhardt (ex-Coop) hosted his own off-campus fan event the night before. "It was a smash hit," he nodded. "We had dinner, dancing. Ignacio [Serricchio, ex-Diego] came and made people laugh. It was a great night."
Bring Back Duke Bring Back Duke! I miss Georgie alot she and Spinelli would of made sucha good couple would of made a good marriage story for them. Hey Maxie getcha corke outta butt and see that spinelli wants to have a relationship with you. Maxie and Spinelli the next super couple.
It was so good to see Brian Gaskill there! Loved him as Rafe and I hope some other show will snatch him up and give him a long-term contract. I'd love to see him on GH or maybe back on AMC as Bobby.
I'd like to see Sean and Tiffany come back now that Anna and Robert are back
Cooper! Jason Gerhardt.. I miss him so much. Cooper needs to be brought back from the dead, they've done it before, they can do it again! He is an amazing actor.. and GORGEOUS. Bring him back please. Maxie needs him. :]
Loved seeing Brian Gaskill there. AMC definitely needs to snatch him back, as Bobby or any new character! I just want to see him back on my soap. I miss Port Charles so much, but would gladly watch him on AMC too.
I sure wish I had gone, would have loved to see everyone!!
