General Hospital fans know that there are so many ways to be a favorite on this show. Your favorite actresses can come and go over the years. You have your favorite of all time. You have your favorite of the year. You have your favorite bad girls. Your favorite good ones. Your favorite moms, your favorite wives, your favorite agents. There is no shortage to this list of favorites, and we know that. But, there is one thing that we probably don’t discuss much, and it’s our favorite of the least favorite. Well, that’s probably not quite how we want to put it, but we you get what we are saying. These are women who might have come into a role and shocked us with how good they are in that role, specifically. It might be someone who has been around for a while, but who finally got a good story line and rolled with it. Either way, we’re discussing some of our favorites, and we think you might agree with us.
Nancy Lee Grahn
She’s been Alexis for a million years now, but you know that she’s been shining this year. She’s not always a woman who has a big role in everything, but the attorney has been given a beautiful gift in 2019. She’s shined this year, and we love her for it. She’s done all the things, from being at total bad you-know-what in the office and in her job to being a total love queen with the one and only Julian, to being a tough mom to Kristina and a worried mom for Sam and someone who has taken on Sonny and been just fine with it. She’s not a flower, and she’s nothing short of strong. Delicate is not a word that we can use to describe how she’s been this year, and we love it. She’s taken the role and made it a more powerful one that it’s been in a long time, and we’ve been falling more in love with her all year for it.
Laura Wright
She will probably land on all of our lists as a favorite in any way, shape, or form. She is so good at being Carly that it’s easy for us to all forget that she’s not the original. We can remember a day when she was not the one who was in this role, but we cannot remember anyone better doing what she’s doing. And, while she’s always been good at what she does, she’s shone this year. 2019 has given her a chance to make her life as good as possible in terms of making this role her own, and she’s rocked it. She’s made it hers. She’s brought so much life to this character, and we love for her for it. She’s done all she can to make this role amazing, and it’s showing in everything she’s doing. She’s done some horrible things, she’s been through some horrible things, but seeing her take on the health risks of this surprise pregnancy as well as embrace the differences her little daughter will have now that she’s alive and well, and from being a good wife to a good mom; she’s done it all, and she’s amazing.
Maura West
She also gets a spot on all of our most favorite lists. Ava Jerome is fascinating, awful, and never quite right. She’s always been one to look out for herself and no one else, but she’s been through so much this year we cannot even get enough of her. She’s done it all from being a horrible woman to being a victim to being someone who has so much else to prove in her life, and we cannot handle anything but the best of the best. But, she’s also someone who cannot make things right in her life when she’s given a chance. What she’s been able to do with this character this year from making her vulnerable to angry to having us believe she’s slightly crazy and not all there is something not many actresses can do. We dare anyone to top how she’s been this year, what she’s brought to the table, and how she rocks this role.
