HOLLYWOOD—One of the saddest endings to 2016 was the death of Miss Debbie Reynolds. I was in total disbelief and shock.

HOLLYWOOD—That happened fairly quickly people! Yep, the powers that be who brought Tom Baker, the guy who raped Elizabeth Webber and tortured Emily Quartermaine back to the canvas of “General Hospital” has gotten rid of the character.
