General Hospital - 1983 Blackie, Lou and Amy v2

[KathieLovesSkittles]

I'm watching these scenes for John Stamos :)

[divadaneen]

And why is Blackie aways so fidgety and twitchy? Was being a cokehead part of his storyline?

[pxlbarrel]

@divadaneen Blackie's trying to hide Lou from Amy and the rest of the family. That's why he's acting so weird.

[divadaneen]

I love how she checks out the room like she's never seen furniture and tchotchkes before. Where does she live, in a van down by the river???

[pxlbarrel]

@divadaneen Actually, she's living on the streets whereever she can find a place to sleep. She's a runaway.

[redsgirl1977]

So young - I remember why I fell in love with him!

[mysterytrax]

Lou's character here does little to show the world just how smokin' fine

Danielle von Zerneck was and probably still is. James Fearley of

The Pogues, was one lucky guy to marry her. I loved Danielle and still do (respectfully of course) to this day.

She was the PRETTIEST DONNA that La Bamba could have EVER cast.

The scene where she picks Richie up in that sweet car; while the soundtrack is playing "This I Swear" by the Skyliners, I will never forget.

Perfect song and perfect girl. WOW!

[TheBarefoot4life]

I love his hair ..

[dndrequiem]

The guy (Stamos) looks almost exactly the same today. Interesting.

[VBFrappy]

I like how he randomly brings up peanut butter

[DevinePerez96]

R.I.P Shell Kepler

[sonyab1974]

pxbarrel what does v2 mean? Lou is a total mess! ROFL! Uncle Jesse giving Amy all that food! ROFL! Then he leaves! ROFL!

[RealLoisLane]

So now I know what the Webber's bathroom looks like --lol!!!

No toilet though......just like The Brady Bunch bathroom!!!!

[95BeagleLover]

OMG!!! Every time I see John Stamos I swoon. He's so sexy!!<3333

[nikkicsonka88]

John wanted to leave the show! Unfortunately! I love him as Blackie!! And Uncle Jesse on Full House, and Gino on Dreams and Matt on You again. And everywhere!! He's a hot man!!!!

[AlyssaLovesSk8erBoyz]

john stamos be sexy

[whalerpro]

Full Houses Jesse!

[Opium1958]

how did Blacky end up leaving the show?

[pxlbarrel]

Blackie goes to prison for manslaughter. Lou dies and even though it's not totally Blackie's fault, his guilt over her death causes him to confess and plead guilty.

[victoriaindigo]

@pxlbarrel By any chance do you have scenes of Lou's accident?

[jess4metoo]

@pxlbarrel I thought he moved to San Francisco to help two other guys raise three sisters who lost their mother.

[TVgirl082]

Why did Blackie go to jail for manslaughter? What exactly happened?

[realyupgrade]

Gosh, John Stamos is so sweet and hot.  Have Mecry!!!

[rayva1]

Gosh ~ this film clip was ages ago...Who was the actress that played Lou's character again?

[kalyssto]

hey, Lou is the same girl who played Donna in La Bamba.. LOL..

[Angelfrostcake3012]

John Stamos is sooo hot and such a great actor!

[rhda8386]

This Blackie - Lou story is a lot like the Frisco - Felicia one that follows a year later...

[EpsilonMK12]

shouldnt he have come back.... it says on wikipedia he was sent to jail for manslaughter for 18 months... he should coem back for a few episodes

[rayva1]

EpsilonMK12: Right around that time, I remember John Stamos' fame and career had begun to take off like wildfire. He was a real heartthrob back in his heyday. I think that getting stuck into a Soap-Op character would've proved too restricting for one so young. Big acts like Demi Moore and Rick Springfield were also part of the cast of General Hospital in the 80s.

[RAMBLERMEZ96]

HOW DOSE BLACKIE DIE

[pxlbarrel]

Ummm... He doesn't.

[RAMBLERMEZ96]

what happens to him

[pxlbarrel]

The last we see of Blackie is when he heads to prison. He was convicted of killing Lou even though he really didn't, he felt guilty about her death and confessed to her death.

[sunny1gir]

I Loved John STAMOS As Blackie Parrish!

WoW,Wow,wow!

[Shakeshack78]

I LOVED Danielle Von Zerneck as Lou. Was so mad when they killed her off!

[utae3]

what ever happened to these characters?

[pxlbarrel]

Well...Blackie went to jail for killing Lou (although it was an accident, Blackie confessed to her "murder".)  Amy just faded away when the producers took the actress, who just died, off contract.

[utae3]

wow, it just shows that when TPTB choose to go in a different direction... they go full steam ahead.

[pxlbarrel]

What's really funny is 10 years later, John Stamos returned to GH for a cameo... he played himself while Scotty, Dominique and Julia stared at him in a restaurant. I posted those clips last year.

[utae3]

i saw and comedy ensued... u know it would've been different had the writers thought of a different way to use the cameo, like i don't know a blackie making it in hollywood type of deal... but eh i guess it would've taken more effort than they were willing to give

[angelbunz]

where can I find that clip? I tried looking for it. I would love to see that. Thank you.

[pxlbarrel]

Search for "gh deception in hollywood" and you'll see my clips. :D

[angelbunz]

Thank you, thank you, thank you! I've been watching the clips for a while now. I enjoyed the clips that I watched and plan on looking at a few more. I'm so hooked!

[Koolson1]

@angelbunz I have that scenen on VHS

[Alycat1022]

Great clip! I was so sad to hear that Shell Kepler passed away on Friday. She will be missed.

[angjoek]

I loved Blackie and Lou! Haven't watched GH since Lou died and Blackie went to jail.

[maxineweiss]

Wow, the Webber house had changed over the years. They got rid of that big dark shelf behind the couch and replaced it with an armoire. Also the big green fern is gone !

[MsTexas73]

well it SHOULD be gone... I mean the Webbers don't live there anymore and I'm sure that Feliica and Mac...who decorated the place have WAAAY different tastes than Rick and Lesley did.

[jeandoodles]

Sorry abuot the spelling

[jeandoodles]

John Stamos was so young here. Do you have more clip of him and Lou? Thnks for posting this. He was all over my walls when I was in High School

[angjoek]

Mine too!!!! He's still a fav of mine

[pxlbarrel]

Yup!

[csluka88]

I miss Amy!!

I swear John Stamos plugs the Beach Boys on every show he's on...but i love them both so it's okay!!
