‘General Hospital’ (GH) spoilers reveal that well over ten thousand fans have signed the petition on change.org to keep Sam McCall (Kelly Monaco) on the show.
‘General Hospital’ Spoilers: Kelly Has Been Playing Sam Since 2003
The petition’s goal is to get fifteen thousand signatures, but they only needed about four hundred more at the last check. Kelly Monaco has been on GH for over two decades, portraying the fiery Private Investigator Sam McCall.
Monaco is said to have been “blindsided” by the powers -that- be letting her go, as she’s been on the ABC sudser since October 2003. Fans are in an uproar over losing Kelly and Sam.
The petition, created by a fan named “Holly V, ” was designed to illustrate how much longtime viewers value the character.
Holly wrote
“Sam McCall, masterfully portrayed by Kelly Monaco for over two decades, has woven herself into the fabric of our daily lives, becoming a beloved figure onscreen.”
She continued.
“Now, Kelly has been blindsided and fired after 21 years. The thought of General Hospital without Sam’s character is not just disappointing, it is unthinkable for the loyal audience,”
Holly V explained
“Sam McCall is more than just a character to us. She represents a part of our lives-triumphs, hardships, love, loss,”
She declared
“Without Kelly Monaco, this character’s journey abruptly ends, leaving her viewers with an incomplete story and void that can’t be filled.”
Kelly’s impending departure was announced last week, sending shockwaves throughout the daytime community. Actors and fans alike have expressed their rage and heartbreak over the decision.
‘General Hospital’ Spoilers: The Writers Are To Blame For Sam’s Lack Of Story
Monaco’s fans have blamed uncreative writing for the character as contributing to the decision to kill her off the show.
Fans have pointed out that Sam hasn’t had a front-burner storyline in years, and that’s not Kelly’s fault. The poor writing and the endless turnover in staff are primarily responsible for her sudden exit.
When the writers don’t craft exciting stories for a character, people don’t see the talent of the actor who plays them.
Any issues with the character are the writers’ responsibility, as they failed to nurture and utilize Kelly as an actress.
Another issue is using Kelly for the promo to bring Steve Burton back, yet not even having her involved with his character, Jason Morgan‘s (Steve Burton) storyline, and then unceremoniously firing her to boot.
It’s just downright nasty how they treat a soap vet who has been loyal to the show for this long. Sam is a fixture in Port Charles, and if the network thinks fans will forget that, they are sorely mistaken.
Many fans are also sick of the endless propping of certain characters on the show who dominate the show and hog up airtime with lame and predictable plots. It’s a shame for them to focus so much attention so that a sector of the audience can be happy.
A fan of Kelly’s took to X upon hearing the news of her firing and said,
“Kelly plays one of the most deeply connected, significant characters on the canvas. Sam has had one of the most beautiful evolutions on GH, and no storyline should keep her away from her home.”
