But Guza won't know how to write for him!!! This is terrible. Bring in the Night Shift writers.

Why? Why? GH needs diversity, but they need young actors. They find a love interest for the gorgeous Lainey. I'm not holding my breath. People of color got no place on GH beyond the stereotype.

Sadly, as a black person myself, I agree with you. Like I said before, get the Night Shift writers on that show.

I miss the Ward family during their heyday!! Loved the interaction between them and the Quartermaines!!

Touissant Isn't mob related, how WILL Guza and co. work with THAT?!? They can't and Billy Dee will be having even more "rumored" hissy fits off camera!

Great news! I enjoyed Billy Dee and Sonya interacting on NS 1 & 2 and look forward to see how they'll work Touissant into the GH canvas. I hope Touissant and Epiphany can develop a storyline; my fear is they'll be relegated to window dressing.Yesterday's episode gave many characters a chance to contribute dialogue regarding the hospital reopening; I hope this practice continues.

Another great actor to be wasted in the wasteland called General Hospital!

You don't think they're bringing him on just to kill him do you?

The last time GH had a younger black person on the screen they got knifed LITERALLY in the back. Bring on Billy Dee, I betcha he'd shut Guza and co down when they want to peddle something stupid to him.

Girl please! Billy Dee better get somewhere and sit down and cash that check! He was already acting a fool on the set of Night Shift, being grumpy with sweet Sonya Eddy, like he was still getting calls from Aaron Spelling to appear on Dynasty. These actors better realize it's a new day. Go to work, recite your lines, cash your check and close your mouth!
