itty bitty insider Anything on Robin?
Patrick is the one that isn ot thrilled with Lisa.
Does Lisa have an Agenda?
Patrick things so.

11/7
- Robin and Lisa get on well which doesn't sit too good with Patrick. Patrick isn't comfortable when Lisa brings up Patrick's old wild ways in front of Robin.
- Matt and Lisa have a lot in common. Robin sees them as a good match, while Patrick isn't so sure.
- Robin feels like the odd man out, Lisa seems to know Patrick a bit too well.
- Robin confesses that she thinks Lisa being around is making Patrick rethink settling down and giving up his old ways

11/8
Robin gets a glimpse of "old Patrick" and wonders if he misses his bachelor days.

last posted some time in april and told you that abc would not be making contract announcements re: kmc and jt. the word is they have signed for a year and have similar but not identical out clauses.
the challenges lying in wait for robin and patrick are not intended as an end of kind as of what is available now.
it is the general policy not to make contract announcements. some times they do at the request of the actor or if there is a publicity gain to be had but it's rare.
unfortunately I cannot expand further. just be wary of those baiting their hooks to tell you otherwise

I have heard that the outline for scrubs is the following:
Lisa comes to town because she's needed medically.
The secret Robin finds out is that her and Patrick were married on a drunken weekend and had it annulled immediately. Or so they thought.
Evidently they are still married, which means Patrick and Robin are not.
Robin is hurt because 1) she thought she was the only one ever married to Patrick, 2) he never told her and 3) they are no longer married.
It feeds both their insecurities. Lisa is not to be involved romantically with Patrick, but they will be very competitive. If the character (which by the way has not been cast yet) takes off, they'll find a spot for her on the canvas.
Don't look for this to start before Dec/Jan. Nothing is planned for sweeps, not sure why it was in the mag.
It's to go through to February sweeps when Robin get's ill (talk of using the H1N1 flu) and Patrick can't make medical decisions for her.
If they complete the arc, they will remarry in May.
Having put all this out there REMEMBER, outlines change all the time.
Just Little Ole M

Don't know much about Lisa, or even if she will stay for long, but a health crisis coming up your way for scrubs, and it's not the obvious. Matt will also be getting a love interest (there has been word about lainey, but not sure). It's your choise whether to believe me or not. Laterz

10/17
Next week, Jason and Sam teaming up with Robin and Patrick will not be the only time. They will begin to interact more and more in the coming months. Pay close attention to the Sam and Patrick interaction.
Lil Sunshine

^^I can confirm this. Also, look for Robin and Patrick's married life to implode by a secret from Patrick's past that sends Robin running into Jason's arms

10/18
Scrubs info please.
I know Scrubs have some good ol fashioned angst coming their way...but they are going to make it.

Can you clarify stuff on Scrubs? Is Patrick's ex coming to town w/ a kid?
All I can tell you is that there is some angst coming their way but they won't be breaking up.
Will they remain married?
From my info, yes. I don't think there are any plans to break up or divorce Scrubs, they're just getting a storyline and some angst, but I don't think there is anything for the fans to worry about. You need to remember that Scrubs and Jasam are the most popular couples and backed by the network and writers.

I can also tell you that the drops in the IL about Sam getting closer to Patrick and Robin running into Jason's arms are incorrect

Valentin meets Robin and she has NO idea who the evil one is.

The entire cast is at the Haunted Star between Oct 29 and Nov 6. Its there that multiple storylines play out including Claudia's death and Carly giving birth.

10/19

Jason/Robin, Jason/Liz aren't being revisited

Patrick and Robin aren't breaking up permanently, but they will separate.

Scrubbies have nothing to worry about lol. Lady shows up in town thinking Patty boy is single( too bad her friend Louise didn't tell her). Patrick tells her of Robin and Emma. Lisa and Robin get along at first until she learns Patty's wife is HIV +, in her thinking Patty has to be HIV+ too. Start being a b--ch and also blame Patty for her miserable life. Robin is a b--ch back and Patrick loves it (Robin standing up for herself and him). He doesn't cheat and Scrubs remain committed. Her friend on the other hand is in deep drama with Alexis and Diane. All the slutty stuff she did in College might cost her, her job meaning Alexis and Diane are the Duo to go...................go figure. Laterz.

I told you that no couple is safe. Scrubbies, CarJaxers, Jasammers... hang on tight! 2 of these couples will survive sweeps, one sooner and the other later. One couple was never meant to survive. The fall out from this break up will shake 3 families to the core.

Lisa is definitely the new angst for Scrubs but NOT the last. They aren't ending Scrubs. It's in NO outlines and in NO breakdowns.
Yes, I'm CONFIRMING this too.

Latest Scrubs Speculation @ the Dish ... which is quite possibly false and should be taken with a grain of salt

I don't know where this is going. All bets were off when they re-signed and for all we know they asked for seperate stories. It was weird though that we didn't get any casting news on the role of Lisa.
Soon!! you will. and don't be surprise that Robin is just as "nice" to lisa when she shows up. but .....oh well you'll see.
Who the hell is Lisa?
Patrick's ex-girlfriend, who Robin will ask to move in with them.

Robin will feel a bit threatened when she realizes that Pat's old girlfriend knows her husband pretty well. Also when Matt takes interest in the new lass, Patrick is less then thrilled.

Scrubs fans don't worry, your couple may hit some bumps in the road, but they are still as golden as you get as a GH couple.

Medical mystery is in a holding pattern while the Gooze figures out what to do now that Rick Hearst left the building and he wants to keep Martha Byrne.
Don't forget Patrick knows that Dante is Sonny's son. YOu may think Guza has forgotten. He has not. That comes up soon and promises to play more in the next couple of months.
Wacky hijinks when the family sit down with Spinelli for an 'engagement dinner' .
Also, they'll probably wish they had stayed at home after they run into NIZ with their kids on a day in the park and see Nik go Cassadine on Rebecca in a big way.

Kmc has signed a new contract. JT has not. Look to see who consoles Robin when Patrick is "presumed" dead.
Can someone make this true so I can ditch this shitty show for good?
I dropped that this afternoon. There was already an insider here and I didn't want to step on any toes. JT has not signed a contract...YET! It doesn't mean he won't. One of the stories that Guza has for Patrick if JT doesn't sign is a death where everyone "thinks" he is dead. Guza has Jason consoling Robin (which I hate)....IF JT doesn't sign and also if Jason and Sam don't catch on with the audience.
All I can say if JT fans, start writing in.

Scrubs are in a supporting capactiy but they support Alexis, Carjax, Spinmax so they stay busy.

One relationship continues in bliss while on the hunt for the truth.

For those saying that a dayplayer killed the mistress. Uh, no. The hit and run will be connected to the end of the murder mystery which will be wrapped next month.

I know that Scrubs are safe as can be. Their angst will come from the hospital.
Tiff

The show views the ratings as a "fact of the genre" as all soap opera's ratings continue to decrease year after year. The intent is to try to capitalize on the younger viewers which ABC has been successful at and bring on younger characters to supplement those listed above. That is the reason Drew Garrett and Nathan Parsons were hired on. And you will certainly see more characters brought on that they feel will attract this younger audience. Proportionately, ABC's demos are considered in better shape than the shows on CBS.
How does effect Robin and Patrick? NS3? A break up? Sold as a pairing? thanks
I don't have information on storyline direction. As I stated prior, there are certain core characters this show intends to build story around. Carly, Jason, Claudia, Sonny and Patrick, Robin, and Luke to a lessor degree. I cannot tell you who is breaking up or staying together only that these are considered by the execs at the present time to be the core of the show.

I want to clarify one thing. Maybe rather than using the term "core" characters I should use the term "anchors". Carly, Claudia, Sonny, and Jason are considered anchorss. Robin and Patrick are considered anchors as is Luke. That does not mean that they will be the focus of ever storyline it means that they are viewed as the anchors for their respective areas of the show. The Mob Element, The Hospital, and everything not tied to those 2 areas.
So you are saying that characters who are directly tied and needed for storylines with these anchors have more of a shot at sticking around for storyline purposes. For example, lulu, ethan, lucky, tracy are tied to Luke. Whereas a character like Monica or Edward is tied to really none of the anchor characters storyline wise?
First to answer your question yes. And for those who are Quartermaine fans, in the short term you have nothing to worry about. The showrealized the strategic mistake it made in 2007 with the Quartermaines and isn't willing to risk at this point ridding the show of anymore. That could change in 6 months to a year. But for now they are secure.

Also let's get the events in order.
The Mayor's mistress dies
Matt feels guilty, it's compounded when the family wants to file a lawsuit
Diane lets Alexis in on the complaint
Alexis starts to look into it, knows something is fishy, the Mayor interjects and tells Alexis to back off.
Alexis basically tells him to go to hell, then he blackmails her and says if he goes down, he's bringing Alexis down with him by outing the affair
Alexis almost calls his bluff, but reconciders after learning what Kristina has been up to as of late and has just been discussing that Kristina needs some stabilty
Alexis attempts to walk a fine line between covering for the Mayor and doing what is right
Kristina learns of Alexis's secret, she's enraged and publicly outs it

Patrick makes a startling confession during his therapy session with Robin.

Liz is around helping Patrick with Emma

Scrubs are still together but it's very rocky. It's Guza's way of keeping Scrubs front burner, hit with angst. Scrubs are safe but they will continue to be hit with lots of angst.

The GH studios are in a tizzy. They don't know what to do to stop the bleeding. Changes are being made fast & furious.
Plans of having Liz to be a somewhat "3rd party" in Scrubs were scrapped after a horrible reception.

I can tell you that come summer Scrubs will be happy and on the backburner once again.

4/18
Anything on Patrick's revelation during therapy?
He's not sure he believes that Robin has PPD. Sometimes he thinks she just wants out.

Patrick, Matt and Maxie come to the realization that Robin did not have it easy while she was staying home with EMma 24/7.
Robin returns, she and Patrick begin to pick up the pieces of their marriage.
Things go rather well in that department for most of June. There big angsty issues surround the fact that Robin think Matt/Maxie are a good couple and Patrick thinks his little brother can do better.(Yeah, OUCH!)
There is also a hospital issue about to rear its ugly head. No toxic balls this time.
At the end of June, Patrick and Robin are back to themselves but soon thereafter one of them learns a family secret and that promises chaos for the next three months or so.

will Ethan play a role w/Scrubs too?
Ethan will be just about everywhere this summer.
Is the family secret Robin's? About Ethan?
I can't say what the family secret is and I'm not sure how to say this without giving away too much.
There's a body outline in chalk in the immediate future(mid June) of a prominent PC citizen. The wrong person gets implicated in the crime and, because of a family secret, one of the Scorpio-Drakes gets involved which causes considerably angst for the other Scorpio-Drake.I know that's clear as mud but its the best I can do.
Will Liz be involved alot w/ Patrick caring for Emma when Robin is gone?
I don't think there are any scenes indicating that. There may be some hospital references that go like "thanks for helping with Emma yesterda" or something like that but for about three weeks Maxie, Matt and Patrick will share scenes with Emma who, in spite of the fact that Robin didn't seem to pay much attention to her, seems to miss mommy. And acts out on it in a big time way. The scenes are all great but watch for the Matt/Emma scenes especially. Jason Cook has a real flair for doing comedy and for anyone who has ever seen the old Dustin Hoffman movie, Tootsie, think about the babysitting scene and you'll get an idea of what I'm talking about.
You really believe that fanfic?
I've tried not to get too specific because things are changed on a regular basis and specifics can't be counted on. But the big story for the summer is a murder mystery which brings in the Scrubs/Matt family; the Ethan/Luke story; Jason/Sam and Spin and the Sonny/Claudia/Rick/Johnny story. That's happening. You can believe or not but that's the truth.
I'm gone now.

Piz isnt gone for good.
What does Patrick say to Robin at the therapy session?
He doesnt believe her about Brad.

There is no Piz. There never was a plan for Piz. Scrubs are solid and will be front burner all Summer. I'm done talking about this.


For those who think Scrubs are over let me remind you that TPTB are trying to get them to re up NOW and now wait to resign at the end of 2009. So have fun trying to rile scrubbies there is no end of scrubs in the future. HAND

Patrick keeps turning to Liz for advice and help with Emma

Patrick and Robin fight about Jason.

atrick and Robin's marriage will continue to spiral downwards. Jason and Elizabeth were chosen specifically for their roles because they are not a threat. Jason is just being a good friend, he won't turn Robin away due to history and he won't reveal her secrets which irks Patrick. Liz is also the one woman in PC who has never fallen for the doc's womanizing charms. She is also just being a friend because she sees how alone Patrick feels with Robin turning to every other man but him and everyone against him as if he is a bad husband for not being able to deal with his wife.
Patrick and Robin's jealousy will get a bit out of control. It's all one big misunderstanding.

Robin puts Emma in danger on the 24th when she crashes her car into a railing. Patrick turns to Elizabeth for comfort after Robin chooses to go away and seek treatment against Patrick's request to stay.

General Hospital ~ Baby Blues
While many fans are upset with Robin’s behavior of late, we have to give props to GH for bravely taking one of its most beloved characters and exploring her dark side while trying to shine the light on the issue of postpartum depression. Ever since the birth of her beautiful baby, Emma, Robin has felt an aversion toward motherhood and has unintentionally placed her daughter in harm’s way on several occasions. Then, she graduated to ducking out on her husband and child to live vicariously through an unattached alter ego. Serious stuff. We may not like what she’s doing, but Robin’s actions have made us concerned and uncomfortable, just like absorbing drama should.
ABC HotSheet spoiler For the week of 4/6:
Robin survives her plunge into the frigid waters of the Port Charles harbor -- but after she continues to resist treatment, her marriage to Patrick might not be so lucky. It doesn't help that Robin keeps turning to Jason for support while Patrick is leaning on Elizabeth.

kay. We'll see. I'll bet right now Pip is going to talk to Liz about her suddenly closeness to Patrick.
Then I guess you will be shocked when Pip gets her I did not know you had PPD scene with Robin and Patrick when Patrick brings her into the ER

GH in May?
Easy as 1.2.3
1 person will die
2 people will get caught in a compromising position
3 people work together to keep a secret

4/4
Folks really want to know why some things are occuring on GH, Frons got chewed out for the Monavie situation on one of his soaps. All parties involved are either out, on their way out or facing stinging slaps on the wrists. Oddly enough the biggest Monavie person out there isn't being touched other than denied anything he wants, since his popularity has an insular effect. All other players are either no longer seen DC, are going recurring GV, or on their way out RH. One BH isn't an actual party involved, but she is feeling the affects also.
Some of SB's bitterness is that most feel like the complaints were driven by a certain fanbase. Another who became a participant at the bequest of a friend BA, is grateful he has a legitimate excuse to back gracefully out. And even those that have complained IR, aren't getting any pats on the back due to airing dirty laundry on set and no one likes that any of this has become any ugly mark on a once prestigious soap.

Robin's PPD storyline continues to generate controversy among GH fans, but KMc insists that everything depicted so far is based on reality. "TV is always extremely exaggerated - especially soap opera - but it's true to the extreme McCullough assures. "There are all types of cases of postpartum. You can have it all the way from very mild to very extreme; it just depends on the person. I have two really good friends who have had it. The strangest thing about postpartum is literally not wanting to hold your baby; not wanting to be close to your baby; not wanting your baby to exist, basically. That's very real."

::Golden:
Soapzone spoilers:
Patrick discusses PPD with Carly, who went through it with Michael’s birth, hoping it will shed light on what’s been wrong with Robin, who’s living in denial.
Carly assesses Patrick’s situation with Robin, then strongly advises him to get her treatment, now.
Elizabeth experiences Robin at her worst.
Patrick discloses his concerns about Robin and PPD with Elizabeth.
Elizabeth stays on the fence about a specific diagnosis – Robin may have PPD, but then again maybe she’s just overwhelmed as a first-time mom. That doesn’t do Patrick any good.
Robin bristles at Patrick’s growing concern, taking everything he does and says as an insult.
Matt offers to operate on the latest patient, instead of Patrick, who’s preoccupied with concerns about his PPD-suffering wife.
Matt makes the costly error of rushing to operate without first scanning this patient’s charts.
Patrick somehow does scan this patient’s (Earl’s) charts, his x-rays, and feels a cold chill rush over.
Patrick stares incredulously at Earl’s x-ray which points to five spheres stuck in the stomach region.
Jason rings Patrick up right at that moment, to relay Agent Rayner’s request to interrogate a suspected terrorist admitted to the hospital. His name is Earl Bragg.
Patrick absorbs more information, puts two and two together, drops everything and sprints to the OR to warn Matt and the scrub team.
Matt has already cut into Earl when he slices into one of the five spheres, which emits a deadly biotoxin into the atmosphere. It turns out that Earl swallowed these spheres containing biotoxins to destroy as many people as possible.
Patrick pounds on the OR window as he helplessly watches his brother Matt, Elizabeth, Monica, Leyla, and others in the scrub team breathe in the biotoxin. Matt hurriedly pushes his scrub team toward the exit doors, but they’re already compromised and the OR itself bursts into flames.
The biotoxin makes its way out of the OR into the other rooms, taking patients down as it goes.
Agent Rayner orders a hospital lockdown, nobody gets in and nobody can leave. He’s forced to remain on the outs.
Donning a hazmat suit, Patrick goes into the OR, where this started. He assists some in exiting, and those who are out cold.
Patrick examines Earl’s dead body to determine more about these biotoxins. Earl’s stomach acids destroy the rest of the spheres.

why can't GH get good writers? And who is writing Robins' story - I know it isn't Guza
I actually think its Frons. Or more specifically, someone in his office did the research for the PPD story and it went 'through' Guza to the breakdown and script writers who are doing a good job with the info. I think quite abit of the Scrubs story has come from Frons and went 'through' Guza rather than actually being written by Guza.

This show can do all it wants but nothing is going to bring back the audience that it has lost GH has killed off it's vets and has lost the heart of what GH once was period. Any pairing at this point ain't going to save them period there is no effort in the pairings now nor will ever be.
I think TPTB agree with ya. so thats why Scrubs is up front and center and others couples are being swapped around.
IF you notice less and less of Maurice and Steve THAT WILL BE THE TELL TALE sign that mob is limited now and COUPLES are the way they writers are told to go.
Time will tell, time will tell.

Robin reaches her breaking point

Scrubs are fine.

Patrick is sitting there talking to Agent Raynor knowing that Robin, Emma and Matt may very well be dead. Obviously they aren't.
When you see how they are discovered to be alive, you'll know exactly how -'platinum' Scrubs are.
Is that a good thing for Scrubs fans?
YES!

The things posted here can be amusing but every once in awhile you guys do get it right.
What you are seeing at GH right now is 75% BF and 25% BG. That is what is happening and has been happening since the latter part of Sept. Changes were implemented at that time and writers were given a short period to accomplish those changes.
Once last comment, there are always numerous drops made about FG's here and on other boards. That is the most amusing thing of all, the actual data from FG's is only given out to a select few. Even actors and actresses aren't given breakdowns of info, instead they are sometimes told they did well, seldom are they told if they were received badly. The very last amusing thing is that couples, which generate so much conversation here, and at other boards, are seldom evaluated as separate entities. BF has also often acted against what these FG's promote as "positive fan interest" regardless if it is about a storyline or actress or actress or the rare couples.
Do you have any spoilers?
This is the only thing I'm going to tell you and then I'll be leaving the board (as last time I was here someone biggypacked my drops). This pre-sweeps bio-toxin tease is not indicative of changes coming to GH. The only thing that will change what is occuring on GH is if viewers tune out. Patrick and the hospital look to be a huge focus of the upcoming story, but GH is and will continue to be about the MOB, Sonny and Jason and the people in their lives.
Viewer complaints about the lack of love stories and romance are to be addressed with Scrubs and the return of LL2. These couples will be your couples. The younger set and the will they, won't they stories will be the love story angst with the Mob and those involved being the primary focus.
That is what you will see. I understand that many won't believe that, that is a good thing, but watch what is actually on your screens and then remember that you were warned.

It was felt the show needed to have at least some "perceived" happy families on the show, even it they are only a backdrop. Scrubs will be drawing both their families into their story and will drive secondary storylines on the show. LL2 will undoubtedly have much less airtime but they will be shown to be a "happy family" this along with periodic stories involving the hospital and the "families" to even include occasionally the Q's are hoped to satisfy fans on those fronts.

I love people talking about Scrubs being platinum and how great their storyline is? Has it or their wedding done anything for ratings? No I didn't think so as they did nothing for NS2 also,
The show has been about the mob for the last decade, and because of that the show has lost boat loads of viewers. Why would you think a wedding for a "B" couple would bring in ratings? As far as NS2, if you would like to share ratings, then share. The ratings were not published. NS1 lost more then half of their viewers due to storyline line decisions & basically pulling a bait & switch on viewers. TPTB realize that now, and unfortunately for them, not all the viewers came back to NS2.
As far as Scrubs being golden, that has nothing to do with ratings. It has to do with the fact that TPTB have no current plans to end them. This crisis story is not the beginning of the end as people like to say it will be. I understand fans of other couples may not like this. But this is just how it is. Their "platinum" status can change at the drop of a hat, but for now it is what it is.
Patrick knows everyone who was in the boardroom. He is in charge of quarantining them.
thank you
No need to thank me. I have no idea how this idea of "golden" or "platinum" got mixed up with ratings. It simply means they are pretty much the only couple on the show that TPTB see as a solid couple. That doesn't mean Scrubs will get airtime, or a great story or anything their fans may want. It means their status as a couple is solid.
That's all
IA. Thank you. I don't think Scrubs is a B couple on GH. I would say the A couples are (or were): Scrubs, Skate, CarJax, JoLu. Everyone else would be a B (or even C) couple.
They are a "B" couple, so is CarJax in the minds of the TPTB. Carly, however, is an "A" character. Scrubs airtime & storyline concentration never came close to Skate or JoLu. Yet they always perform better with the audience. Maybe their lack of airtime might help them.

Thanks-when does he find out Robin and Emma are missing?
Emma and Robin aren't missing for very long. Maxie/Johnny finds Robin and then Maxie/Johnny/Robin get to the van. All make it to the hospital where only part of the hospital is quarantined.

Patrick doesn't think his family is missing. Robin and Emma make it to the hospital by early ihe first week of February. He doesn't even know they got caught in the snow. There is a question after the fire about who survived but Emma is not part of that question. Robin is.
I'm confused. The first week of February is when Robin is cracking up and when she/Emma get in the van though.
Sorry. Meant the second week. I misspoke.
Can you say what the deal is with Robin being found in the snow and Emma being missing? Is she in the van, and where is Robin? Right outside the van or a ways away?
Emma is in the van because the van broke down and Robin had to go try to find help. The van isn't right next to her but it isn't that far away.

The airducts in the OR are mistakenly connected to the boardroom, which is why those two places are compromised, and why the people in each of those rooms are quarantined. The rest of the hospital should be okay...except the fire supposedly spreads to the 10th floor nurses station.

The gases that are released that eventually ignite to catch the nurses hub on fire start getting released this week. The fire isn't until later. Like every episode up through January 28 is one hour the episodes following are over a short but not defined time period.
