"One Life to Live" Alums to Reprise Characters on "General Hospital"

"One Life to Live's" Kassie DePaiva, Roger Howarth, Michael Easton and Kristen Alderson will soon be a part of "General Hospital", where they'll reprise their characters, "General Hospital" executive producer Frank Valentini announced Wednesday.

"We have a very exciting story planned for the citizens of Port Charles, with Sonny Corinthos at the center of it! I am confident viewers and fans alike will be excited for the arrival of John, Starr, Blair and Todd," said Valentini.

"Incorporating characters from 'One Life to Live' continue the legacy of the show as we weave them into 'General Hospital'."

Production on the ABC daytime soap's new story line will begin at the end of this month.

After months of speculation about the long-running soap's fate, the network announced in November that "One Life to Live" would not have a future online. After 44 years (and more than 11,000 episodes) the series finale will air Friday.

The show certainly doesn't really seem to be ending well since it had to do a cliff hanger. I don't know how the GH crossover will end up working out but maybe it will at least manage to wrap up some of the stories they had to leave hanging.

If the show is ending and was canceled, why have a cliff hanger? Makes no sense whatsoever.

I believe that they finished taping before the word got out that they wouldn't be continuing online.

They left it open because it wasn't going to be "the end".

I don't like Starr. Blair's okay if she beats the crap out of Carly and she don't have teh sexytime with Sonny. But...

John and Todd...SQUEE!

Now that makes sense. I never thought about that. It's a shame they can't continue it on line but I wonder if that storyline will be continued on GH?
