Scene & Heard

MY GUYS Lindsay Arnold (Allie) had a very warm welcome to DAYS, thanks to some helpful former costars. “Greg [Vaughan ex-Eric] was the first person I worked with and has such a calming energy, which really helped me because that made me feel a lot more comfortable being the new person on set,” she recalls. “Chandler Massey [exWill] might be one of the funniest people ever. I remember laughing pretty much up until they called action whenever we worked together. He was also really helpful from the beginning and was always there to answer any questions I had. Freddie Smith [ex-Sonny] was always there to help answer any questions I had and made me feel welcomed from my very first day. He was always so bubbly and always smiling, which is amazing energy to have on set.”

After discovering that Belle and Shawn know she woke up from her coma and left the hospital on the night Charlie died, a furious Jan holds Claire at gunpoint and reveals that yes, she is the one who killed Charlie. “Jan loves to be in control and Jan thinks she’s smarter than everyone, so she’s obviously gone to great lengths to plan this murder and fake a portion of the coma,” points out her portrayer, Heather Lindell. “She is excited to finally be rid of Belle and be with Shawn, so this is kind of her moment, where everything that she’s ever been dreaming of is coming together.

Best Of Show Or Worse For Wear? Digest Decides.

SOUND OFF What's on your mind?

FOUR SURE I have been watching GH since I was in the womb and have continued watching into my adulthood. This is the first time I am reaching out because I am just so disappointed in the decimation of some beloved couples. Although I understood the Chase/Sasha/Michael/ Willow switch, I was ecstatic when the truth was finally revealed. But in just a few short weeks, the attempt at rekindling the former romances was dismantled. I absolutely love the dynamic between Chase and Willow. He has such a pure love for her; it’s beyond endearing. Sasha clearly loves Michael, as well, so I was shocked to hear them say it wasn’t working. Willow and Michael are just not a good fit for each other. Nothing against the actors — they are phenomenal. And now to ruin the relationship between Jordan and Curtis? I adore them together. I am truly hoping the writers will see that breaking up actors with insane chemistry is just plain wrong. Thank you for continuing to be the only magazine I read!
