The ceremony originally scheduled for September 18th on Fox, now is looking at alternative dates with one in January 2024 as the most likely. Somebody from the Jimmy Lee branch of the family treeĬoming as no surprise to anyone, the 75th annual Primetime Emmy Awards are the next kudofest to be postponed due to both the WGA writer’s strike and the SAG-AFTRA performers strike. So if they’re really keeping this guy on payroll, bring him on as a new character. As Roger Howarth himself knows well from his OLTL days (and as Steve Burton could remind him) anytime the original portrayer of such a character decides to come back, they’ll throw the recast under the proverbial bus in a heartbeat. Recast as Drew Cain/Lucky Spencer/any other long absent character? That would be a huge waste of time. Not to mention Gang Rapist Todd could NEVER be paired with Elizabeth Webber. And a return of Blair and especially the completely void of talent Disney Bubblegum Princess, still crying over her dead kid is just intolerable to even think about. Because they couldn’t do it without dragging in the rest of the OLTL freakshow with him. Return of Todd Manning? No, that would make zero sense. So let Frodd come to Hell and meet his fate. And as we saw, even that ultimately did not end well for him. Ironically, the best thing the character ever did was clubbing Whiny Heiny over the head with a crowbar and then threatening the coward with torture to get a confession out of him. The 666 different redemption stories they tried to write for him proved that, and none of them accomplished it. My prediction is that they’re going to create a new character for him.įrodd never worked as a character. Dismayed the covid wiped that out last year and see he’s on the gh lists for fan events this year, but so is William Devry and he’s off the show, so guess I’ll have to wait and see. Was hoping to do it again at another fan weekend. I finally got to meet Roger and spend time with him about two years ago. I really enjoy the dynamics of his relationships with Cam, Liz, Scotty, Leisel…why bring her back to help Franco if they’re just going to kill him off? Why wasnt Dante protecting Franco? I hope Franco is just in a coma and comes back to us. Curious that Heather was mentioned earlier (letter to Ryan). Why didnt the paramedics announce he’s dead, not typical GH fashion they weren’t covering a dead body (they did Shiloh’s.) Why did they put up the head restraints if he’s dead?ĭon’t know why Todd would come back to Port Charles with out ties… except for Heather. I can’t believe Franco would be gone so quickly without really getting Peter for killing his Andy! Did Franco tell him anything? Where is the phone with “Drew’s” video message to Franco? And the phone with Peter’s confession? Did Franco hit Send? I was hoping this was yet another setup Franco didnt tell Elizabeth about… No time in this case. Why would Peter have a gun in the room of his hotel room that was just for getting ready for his wedding? That’s odd. Where did the gun come from? Was it the same gun Peter got out of his safe? They could have had Franco paint “Peter” on a canvas or two. Remember that Connie wrote “AJ” in her own blood after she was shot… It just took them a while to figure out it stood for Ava Jerome, not AJ Quartermaine. So, who do you want Roger to play next? Todd, Franco (maybe he did not really die?) or someone else completely new? Share your thoughts and theories via the comment section below. In the meantime through April 9th, Howarth is now on Cameo with 100% of his proceeds going to help. Roger will be taking a break on-screen from GH for awhile, as we await just whom Howarth will play next. I have great faith in the people who think of these things. In speaking with SOD on his future in Port Charles, Howarth shared: “I’m really excited. Those rights have since returned to the network. The Daytime Emmy winner came to GH from One Life to Live in the role of Todd Manning in 2012, and then took over the role of Franco (originally played by James Franco) in 2013, when Prospect Park took over the rights to One Life to Live’s characters from ABC. However, Soap Opera Digest is reporting exclusively that Franco’s portrayer, Roger Howarth is not done with the ABC daytime drama series. If you have caught today’s episode of General Hospital, you know that in a struggle for the gun with Peter (Wes Ramsey), none other than Franco (Roger Howarth) was shot and killed.
