Hot Topic : Rick Springfield's Return

What A Hottie!
Is it just me, or does Rick Springfield look damn good for being 20-some years older than we last saw him?  I mean, he was pretty disheveled when Noah was wasted, but he cleaned up fabulously.  And in that gray suit, he can operate on me anytime!  He's still got that boyish quality that never gets old. - Lola Tenney

Like Father, Like Son
I really like this back story that they've written for Noah and his son, Patrick.  It seems like Noah's drinking is guilt-based, and I bet his son has something to do with that.  It looks like the animosity between father and son is going to cause one of them to explode.  And, by the way, they really look like they could be related.  Nice casting choice. - Frannie Defazio

I'm Hooked!
There had been so much hoopla about Rick Springfield coming back to GENERAL HOSPITAL and, considering I didn't watch the show back then, I didn't get it. But now, after seeing him, I get it!  My mom, who hasn't watched GH in years, went all gaga when she heard he was back and immediately turned on the TV.  Now I know why she reacted the way she did.  Count me in as a new Noah fan, and count my mom in as a returned GH viewer.  - Michelle Chao

A Standout Performer
I have only known Rick Springfield as a rock singer, so it came as quite a surprise that he guy is actually a darn good actor!  He looked so scared and ashamed and in pain.  When he told Robin he couldn't go back to Port Charles because he didn't want anyone to see him "this way," I almost started to cry for the poor guy.  His emotions and sadness seemed very real.  I'm looking forward to seeing how it all pans out. - Ellen Keener

Staying Power
I know that it's up in the air how long Rick Springfield will be around, and I'm not on to beg, but I'm about to...Powers that be, do whatever you must to keep him around, okay?  Know that nostalgia is "in," even if we weren't around to watch those events unfold when they first happened.  And please, don't ruin him by making him crash and burn before his time, like you did when Rick Webber came back.  I still haven't gotten over that. - Bonnie O'Bannon

Music to My Ears
This whole Rick Springfield craze is all new to me.  I didn't know who he was, so I wanted to wait and see him on the show.  Yeah, the guy is easy on the eyes, and he seems to be a good actor.  Then, hearing he's also a rocker, it all piqued my curiosity, so I downloaded "Jessie's Girl" last night.  Okay.  That's enough, I'm sold.  Where's the next concert?  - Lisa MacDonald

Rockin' Robin
I was really impressed by the chemistry and ease between Rick Springfield and Kimberly McCullough (Robin).  Then someone pointed out to me that they made a movie together where they played father and daughter.  It should be interesting to see where they go with this, considering Noah might be her father-in-law someday. - Patty Schaefer

A Love Connection!
If seeing Noah Drake wasn't enough to send me dancing in the streets, seeing him interact with Alan and Monica and then give Bobbie a big, warm hug certainly did it.  I hope Noah and Bobbie hook up again, just for old times' sake.  He needs a confidence-booster, and she needs, well, him!  They were so into each other once that it would be the height of romance if, 20 years later, that fire was rekindled. - Corie Higgins
