Emily Quartermaine, the heart and soul of General Hospital, was murdered off of General Hospital during November sweeps as part of the Text Message Killer storyline. Emily is part of the fabric of General Hospital and longtime viewers of this show were angry, saddened, and shocked that the writers of this show elected to kill off not only another Quartermaine but a character so beloved. We still cannot imagine the show and Nikolas without the beloved Emily.
We remember when Amber Tamblyn first introduced Emily to us over 10 years ago. Amber played the young and teenage Emily will spunk and vigor and we witnessed her recover from her mothers death, survive heroine addiction, a spinal injury, and become an integral part of the quirky Quartermaine clan.. When Amber left Emily left with her and as fans of the character, we were all saddened.
2 years later, Emily returned to the show as an adult with Natalia Livingston taking on the role. She seamlessly took over the role and fans of Emily immediately embraced Natalia and her portrayal of Emily. Natalia showed us an Emily that was now graceful, intelligent, beautiful and strong. We witnessed her survive cancer, a multitude of murder attempts, rape, divorce, and finally her death. With Emily’s death a part of us died with her, just as she was beginning to move onto more exciting chapters in her life, including becoming a doctor. . As viewers of the show this has left a big gap for many of us.
We as viewers and fans of this show can make a difference. Please click here to find out more about the Bring Back Emily Campaign.
