BREAKING NEWS: Ted King IN at One Life to Live!




 
Shut yo mouth! Entertainment Weekly is reporting former General Hospital alum Ted King is heading to One Life To Live! King will play opposite Kassie DePaiva. Said King:
We’re creating this together,” King told EW exclusively. “It was an opportunity I couldn’t pass up on. When I was originally hired (for GH), it was for a short period of time. I had every attention of going back to primetime. But during that time, I really enjoyed myself with the role – a lot more than I thought.”
 

King will head to Llanview on Jan. 21.

Guza and MAB are probably seeing red right now because this broke in the "mainstream" press. This makes me happy. Next to Billy Warlock and Ric Hearst, he is my favorite GH castoff. It looks like Ron C. and co. are planning to keep up the awesomeness into the new year. I eagerly await his arrival. This is a well deserved in your face to Guza, but I will not get into my anger over how Lorenzo and Ted King were treated there, and enjoy the good news.

Thats It! OLTL is officially the best soap on TV! They have been on fire with some of the best casting lately and storylines.

I hope they are teaching the other two ABC soaps that being the "black sheep" isnt so bad!

I love Ted King, but wow--just how big is this cast going to get? The OLTL cast is huge, even with the recent losses. Are there more exits to come?

I'm glad he's coming back to daytime, and on one of the hottest shows to boot! GH wasted him and TK w/KD's Blair? I'm all in! It's the best news I've heard all day. Big smile

Knowing OLTL, it'll be some brand new character...sigh... we already got too many of those...
That being said.....

GET IT BLAIR!!!!!!

This is awesome news for ABC & OLTL!!!
I think its sad that AMC didnt grab him to fill th evoid left by TK.

I think this is awesome for OLTL-- I think Kassie & Ted would sizzle. Ted would even work well with Susan, Robin S, Gina T, Melissa A, Bree, Florenzia, and Terri C
A leading man in this age group is something OLTL has been lacking--- besides John & Todd-- OLTL is lacking men in their lat 30s to late 40s. I would like to see Blair & Marty in a triangle with Ted Kings character- and NOT Todd

Who will Ted be playing???????? A new role or a recast??
Could he be playing one of his other ABC roles on OLTL-- like Danny or Lorenzo?

This is news has caused me to make a very important decision in my life...

GH...the trial separation is over...I want a D-I-V-O-R-C-E.

Ted King is BACK! They treated him like dog-doodie at GH...OLTL writers aren't IDIOTS...I CANNOT WAIT to see what they have in store for this man. He and the OLTL writers will make the Sonny & Jason Happy Hour look like the whacked-out hack job it is. I'm too excited!!

Yay!! Yay!! Yay!!

I hate Marty....She's such an annoying and boring character. Now that her equally annoying son is off to sing sing she needs to go too.....But double YAY that Ted King will be gracing our screens....I hope they make him a good guy and not another psycho...I want someone hot for Blair but I really want to see her happy again.

Oh lord in heaven, why do I feel all my CarLo naughty-hot chem in full effect all of a sudden? I miss Tamara Braun and Ted King's inconvenient (for Maurice Benard, at least) chemstry. Those were some good times!!! Ah well, I wish him and OLTL the best.

Excellent news!! Love Ted King and love Kassie (Blair) and this pairing should be HOT!!! Please let him not be a psycho. Blair needs a chance to be happy for a change!

Stay away from Marty! She needs her medical license revoked and to be fired as soon as possible!!! Maybe she can move to whatever city her son's prison is in so we don't have to see her anymore!

Too bad this announcement isn't on the GH page as well! Big loss for GH and huge gain for OLTL!!

This is AWESOME news! OLTL is such an excellent show now. I hope its ratings go up and up. I do hope they don't make Ted King's character into a psycho or something like they did with Matt Walton's Eli. Blair deserves a good guy for a change and one who stays that way!

HA! HA! HA! Big smile Big smile

I am sure Guza and GH are seeing red. Also the fact that EW broke the news love it.

BIG GET FOR OLTL!!!!

With Ted and Kassie, Blair and Luis will be the next OLTL supercouple!!!!

Look's like Frank and Ron C. are going for the gusto.

I don't watch this show but Kim brought me in peeking in their door so I will definitely check out Ted. I liked him as Lorenzo Alcazar didn't care for how he exited GH at the end of his run they wrote him out of character a.k.a trashed him.

I agree that this is GH's loss but I'm glad he's not going back under the pen of Guza so this is great news for this fan. My Elizabeth / Lorenzo fantasy was long gone only to live forever in fan fiction.
