Thank you so very much for posting these videos of classic GH. After watching a few of these already (more like hours of them) I feel like it’s the 80’s again and as if I never stopped watching GH. I miss those golden years of General Hospital soooo much.
Lesley was ALL class! Who but she, would sit with and shield a women from complete embarrassment from a cheating husband and his mistress! A woman who made her life miserable for 3+ years! Yep, that's Les - Speak softly and carry a big stick! One of the reasons why I always loved her!!
Did anyone notice the music that was playing at The Floating Rib? "Here Comes That Rainy Day Feeling Again" by The Fortunes. Coincidence? I think not! 😉
Oh that beautiful thing called “karma”. Monica is faced with the same scenario that she created with Rick. Now she is on the outside looking grim. #boom
Every time i watch this clip; which is one of my favorite, i alway enjoy Leslie little dig at Monica after she says " it looks like we spend alot of lonely nights".To which Lesley response was" it dosen't have to be that way if you don't want to".look on Les face Priceless!!
Especially, with Les fully knowing that she, herself, is soon to get a marriage proposal from the man, that Monica said, didn’t love Lesley! Perfect Karma!
Wow... I have never seen this clip before but I think Leslie is the bigger woman here. Always so classy there. To be honest, I'd never have anything to do with Monica after how she treated her during her affaire with Rick. Always amazed me how they could be friends after that. Thanks for sharing!
Hay GH fan friends it is so crazy good... Well I mean about what goes around will always come around when you least excited just when you think you are all along in side your sadness some body comes along to reopen up your heart. Well that is our Doctor Lesley .. yes it is! She has a tender heart even when she gets knocked down she is always there to help feel better about yourself. I for when will always see Lesley strong well to be kind to everyone.... Even thought she herself has been hurt so deeply with her life too. Friendship paths have a way with ones clear conscious you kind of meet in the middle. Crazy right? JMVHO! Love GH Rosie!I’am So very Sorry I meant least expected... Sorry ..
You know what I find strange with the timing of what Monica says to Lesley @ the hospital "Well you are divorced, I'm about to be divorced and it looks like we spend alot of lonely nights". This comment was after Monica overhearing Rick tell Lesley he loved her, when she returned from Greece and stuck in New York due to the weather. Monica at this point, was well aware that Les & Rick were headed back together!!
There's a lot to be said about the scripts for GH in those days. The show had a mellow theme until a crisis arose which tended to keep your attention, unlike the constant chaos that not only GH has these days but the other surviving soaps. Now I'd like to see Lucille and Al Weeks, Sharon and the rest just to reminisce .
Yes.. Amy was a Vining.. Laura's adoptive family. Amy came to PC to visit her sister in the fall of 79. Laura & Scotty were newlyweds living in a tiny apartment, so Amy stayed at the Webber house during her visit. Her father died while she was visiting, so the Webber's just sort of "took her in."
Can someone refresh my memory - how did Lesley and Monica get (relatively) friendly by this point. I watched it faithfully back in the 70s and 80se, but the memory is foggy 😄
@yocathyberger - Cath - do you mean next scene after this one?? It is when they are getting ready for Laura's bridal shower at the house. Rick bumps into Lesley when she is carrying the boxes.... Then the little kiss at the door the next day when they are cleaning up... That's what I have anyway........
I love this scene because it marks the very beginning of Lesley and Monica no longer being enemies. Also, it shows that women do not always have to remain messy over what was how history. That is why I don’t like how they have tried to write any scenes between these two characters in modern times. They completely overlook that Lesley & Monica became friends and that they buried the ax over the Rick & Monica affair.
Where are the Patsy Rahn Monica episodes? She was a much better Monica before Leslie Charlston and also younger, and played a very good villain. Not to mention a real beauty!
Sort of rewriting history, or Monica's trying to: Rick was planning to leave Lesley regardless of a son (May 1979). Just before Laura had her car accident the night of the Krikorian surgery, Rick made plans with Monica, planning to leave Lesley, and this was before Monica became pregnant.
@yocathyberger : "bump"? :-)Ah, grr... The dictionary gives me 10 different german Substantives and 3 Verben for it. What are you two meaning with "bump"? Not laugh, I hear it:-) :-)
Lesley is a true lady. She had the perfect chance to toss it right back in Monica’s face & didn’t do it. Gotta love her. Class class class
Lesley looks so beautiful with her hair like that and her face looks so pretty
Leslie, Laura, Amy, Monica, Alan ~ WOW... it's amazing to see ALL THESE people 31 years ago!!!
No 41 yrs ago
Now 43
I still miss the old round nurses station hub and the big circular numbers on the elevators
The Floating Rib. Boy that brings back memories.
God I miss this when soaps felt like family and had heart!!!
I watch this and I watched an episode this week and all I can say is "Time is a thief!"

I love Lesley's role. 💛
Wow!!! Monica and Lesley actually had a civilized conversation. That's pretty impressive for arch enemies!
Christina Maye I love this scene. It is the VERY BEGINNING of them no longer being enemies.
I love lesley "I'm a grown up doctor person"

Great clip!

So many memories of my mom and I watching GH together in the '70s and early '80s ❤️
See now, this is why Dr. Lesley Webber is the absolute best ever! I mean, the woman felt bad for her arch-nemesis! *sigh* :-}

Leslie is the definition of class and forgiveness.
I loved how Lesley was with her two daughters Amy and Laura Beautiful
Leslie is a beautiful gorgeous woman 6-28-2023

Monica was “fishing” imo
@@jamiestablein5295 Yup!
@@82mmkay Lesley kept it classy, as usual😉

In real life this actress died young of kidney disease. Shell Kepler.

"The Floating Rib". LOL It's been 35 years since the last time I heard that stupid name.
Monica, you've already gone through a divorce! And Lesley knows that.
@yocathyberger - Cath - do you mean next scene after this one?? It is when they are getting ready for Laura's bridal shower at the house. Rick bumps into Lesley when she is carrying the boxes.... Then the little kiss at the door the next day when they are cleaning up... That's what I have anyway........
I've only seen the "bump" in a music montage.

Lesley is so very classy! I want to be like her. Does anybody know what the next scene between Rick and Lesley is?
Wow what a blast from the past. ‘The Floating Rib’
They remind me a little of Krystal and Alexis.
Amy was the daughter of the couple who 'adopted' Laura, yes? How then did she come to live with Leslie and Rick?
Her parents died....Not sure how,I think it was a car accident.
Poppy: what do you mean Rick being back?

Daytime70s remember after Laura's accident Rick realized that he did indeed love Lesley. He went to Monica's hotel to room to break the news to her.
OH. Well I have the "bump". I'll have to post for everyone..... :)
Gloria Monty was fantastic but she did make two flubs. Losing Jane Elliot in 1980 and Denise Alexander in 1984.
And yet kept Leslie Charleson 🙄. Denise was an amazing actress

Small and private.lol.The wedding seen round the world..
For once Lesley and Monica were getting along
