General Hospital to Reunite Santa Barbara Duo (Again)
One of Santa Barbara‘s premiere supercouples will reunite (again) on General Hospital, when Lane Davies, Nancy Lee Grahn‘s scene partner on the long-defunct NBC sudser, pays a return visit to the ABC soap — but in a different role.
On NBC’s Santa Barbara, Grahn played legal eagle Julia Wainwright to Davies’ Mason Capwell, the black sheep of the uber-wealthy Capwell clan. An original cast member, Davies parted ways with Santa Barbara in 1989; Grahn, who joined its cast early in its run, stuck with the NBC soap until it went dark in 1993.
Davies and Grahn first reunited on GH back in 2002, when he was cast in the role of Dr. Cameron Lewis and lightly crossed paths with her (déjà vu alert!) legal eagle Alexis Davis. Davies’ first GH run ended in 2004.
This time around, beginning the week of May 22, Davies will play the GH role of Fergus Byrne, an attorney who crosses paths with Grahn’s Alexis. TVInsider was first to report on the casting.
Grahn was quick to comment on the re-reunion, writing on Instagram, “It never gets old. We do 😂…. but it doesn’t 😍. Lookin’ forward to another romp.”
