SoapNet Ready for Second Season of General Hospital: Night Shift By Lynda Hirsch
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SoapNet gears up for the second season of "General Hospital: Night Shift," the cable spinoff of "General Hospital." The 13-week series is set to air in July. Last year's plots paid no attention to what was happening on the dayshift. A character could be dying on the network version, and at night he was competing in a dance contest.
When GH spun off "Port Charles," it did the same thing. Vampires could be roaming the north wing of the hospital, and in the south wing no one knew about it. "General Hospital: Night Shift" was the fifth-most-watched cable show for women 18-35, but viewers of both shows hated the separate but unequal plots.
For the second season the show will focus on Robin (Kimberly McCullough) and Patrick (Jason Thompson). The two major actors from GH's good old days will be integral to the nighttime episodes. Tristan Rogers (Scorpio) is back. When Rogers came back to GH in 2004, his character was practically a cartoon that was searching for the cause of a deadly disease. This time around Rogers will have a potentially deadly disease. Robin, who had little contact with her dad, Scorpio, since she was a child, interacts as an independent daughter and physician who tries to save her dad's life. Antonio Sabato Jr., who played Jagger in the '90s, is set to return.
As the brother of Robin's first love, Stone, he will have an impact on Patrick and Robin's rocky romance. Stone died of AIDS. After he died, Robin learned she had contracted the disease from him. "GH: Night Shift" will have the lush look of high definition. The first season is available on DVD.
I can't wait for the second season. It will not be separate from GH, but actually a continuation. Which, to me is how a spin off should be Both need to coincide and make sense, This has the potentional of being really good. Any thoughts???

1.  thelastwolf113 (2009) | 4 months ago |  I agree. The main reason I didn't like it last year was because of it being totally separate from GH, it had no continuity and that annoyed me.
I'm not sure I will like it, if it keeps up with the juvenile antics of Robin and Patrick, then I can pass on it. I hated when Robert Scorpio came back, that stupid storyline diminished his character greatly. It was a joke, a pardoy of the glory days of GH.
I'll give it a try and hope it's better than last year.

2.  coffeebreak (2832) | 4 months ago |  I'm not interested in NIght SHift - was silly last season. But at least I now know what "high definition" is! I rememebr seeing the "odd" way the movie was delivered...for lack of technical way to put it. It was almost like piped in voices on very animated characters. Can't explain it, but I thought it was really weird - like they were tryuing to make a cartoon in 3-D.

| 3. Trace86 (2745) | 4 months ago |  I for one will be very glad that there will be better continuity of storylines. I also hope that nothing happens on Night Shift that will impact General Hospital too majorly since not everyone gets SoapNet and it wouldn't be fair to them to feel like they missed something important.
So it needs to be self-contained but still true to the parent soap. Does that make sense?
I can't wait!
I also read that Dr Julian is being recast and the new actor is the brother of the previous actor. How cool is that?

| coffeebreak (2832) | 3 months ago | I think many watched Night Shift thinking, of course, it was GH, just at night! But we didn't find until it was nearly ended that although the same characters, it was a totally differnet world! I'll watch it this year with a "seperate" mindset - A good way to do that is to think "I'm watching General HOSPITAL, not General Mob World! | |

| Trace86 (2745) | 3 months ago | I am so excited! It starts tomorrow. I can't wait! Hooray!!!!!
Jagger is hot. | |

| Liasonfan (1121) | 2 months ago | Hey coffebreak--just saw this. Nice to know I was missed. I had a very hectic summer. So glad it has almost come to an end. My 2 year old granddaughter had kidney surgery and is now recuperating very nicely. Then her mom (my daughter) had a gall bladder attack. Not good anytime, but especially not good when you are 7 months pregnant. She will need to have her gall bladder out as soon as the baby is born in October. So I have spent much of my summer worrying and babysitting her 3 kids. Thanks for caring. Keeping my eye always on GH though and the progressing (somewhat) Liason story! | |

|
| coffeebreak (2832) | 2 months ago | Wow, sorry to hear all that. I hope things work well for your guys. I have a 2 year old grand daughtter to - Thank God every day she is healthy! My 7 yo GD just started 3rd grade and I saw her for the first time for a couple week s- they grow so fast and change so much! Good luck to you all - GH can wait! | |

I have seen where they advertise this show to be on in the evenings but I can't find it in the TV guide and I have been looking every day. I check all the TV channels every evening too, and I guess we just don't get the show because I can never find when it is on. Can you tell me when it is on, if you live in Canada it will be on around the same hour as with you, for me, I think. I would really like to watch it as this is one of my favourite shows and I watch the afternoon show every day that I can.
I see from reading your discussion that a lot of the old characters are back on it, and I would love to see them. I just wish I could find the show on my TV and will continue to look for it. I hope I find it here since I really want to watch it.

| Liasonfan (1121) | 2 months ago | General Hospital Night Shift is aired on Soap Net on Tuesday evenings. However, we can not get Soap Net here in Canada (a stupid Disney/ABC thing). My assistant admin at LG2 clips the show and posts the links that are available for downloading to your computer and you can watch the show any time you like--right on your computer. Blease her heart. Don't know what we Canadians would do without her!! You need to have 10 posts accumulated at LG2 (in our general discussion threads) to view the Night Shift clip forum. A very small price to pay!
