Remembering Lila pt.1

scenes surrounding the death of the beloved Lila Quartermaine protrayed by Anna Lee. July 16,2004

[@maryhlad5277]

Lila Quartermaine was a amazing lady-loving, & caring. It’s those special qualities that Ned inherited from her.

[@imzadibeloved4735]

Anna Lee was a very special lady ! I remember this episode, it made me cry , a I came to realize that not only that they killed off Lila , but the legendary ANNA LEE had passed away. Up to that episode, I had no idea !!!!

[@steffweffi]

Lila and Anna Lee was such a beautiful woman. She is very missed. The actors did amazing with these scenes.

[@krissymconnorsvlog7321]

Alan finding out about his mother is one of the saddest. I cried when he found out

[@mansourtabrizi7267]

This is the only episode where Jason and Edward don't argue and have a heart to heart moment (that I know of after the accident with Jason in 1995). And I find it sad that Jason wasn't there to see Edward or mourn his death.

[@elizabethsanchez8126]

I've been watching GH for 45years now and I remember everything! I love our real original Character Lois ( Rena Sofer) Rip Edward and Lila Quartermaine John Ingle Anna Lee 🥀🌹🙏

[@pamnamisniak3158]

I still miss Lila and Edward. I can’t believe how long it’s been. Where has all the time gone.

[@pedrogates3189]

Edward was my favorite character on the show miss him a lot he was funny as hell

[@hair2show1031]

Edward was so ornery! The way him and Monica took jabs was the best. Those days are missed and so are they :(

[@cynthiastines8918]

Lila was the reason everyone in town put up with the rest of the Q's., and she knew how to keep Edward in check.

[@singingredhead2010]

I know! I was very saddened that John Ingle was not playing Edward at the time.

[@rahdrecussmith5933]

Me too. He deserved to be there and had real emotions then the one they had to portray him

[@cjermainesmith5229]

Me too, what happened with that? Where was he?

[@lisaweiner215]

Anna Lee was & always will be an Excellent actress.

[@sarakennedy2633]

tracy broke my heart the most when this happened, her "I want my mommy" RUINED ME. I know they killed Lila because Anna died irl same with why they killed Edward but it's still one of the saddest things ever on GH.

[@callmehchloe4074]

I wish that scene was still on KZbin

[@janinelemieux3099]

The actor who played Edward john Ingles played him originally I think, he died days or day after his last scene.

[@sarakennedy2633]

@@janinelemieux3099 yeah I know that but he was alive when lila died and I wish he played edward at this time! john ingles died in 2012 idk why he wasn't playing edward when lila died which was in 2004.

[@kelsadilla367]

I remember Tracy's reaction when Lila died. She goes "no. No. Noooo!"

[@KiraKiraSekai1]

Lila was the best part of Tracy.

[@lmitchell477]

the look Jed gave Jason when he Walked in with Emily, he gave a great performance

[@msnicole74]

Anna Lee was let go about 3 years before she died. There's even an interview with her son where he speculates that her being let go from the show hastened her death

[@GaelinW]

Which would be weird since she was last on the show in 2003 and both she and the character died in 2004.

[@rahdrecussmith5933]

She was let go in May 2003 and passed in May 2004

[@angelamorales2118]

Everyone loved and cared about lila so much

[@angelicabond8724]

I love Jed he was a wonderful actor. But way too young to be Edward he was only a year and a half older than Stuart Damon.

[@sarahswomley2580]

It's a shame John Ingle wasn't playing Edward when this happened.

[@PunkRockDiva1979]

this was so sad Lila IMO was the best of the Q's

[@RealTreyOlds]

Shanon Isbell I loved Lila and Edward

[@SidJustice1]

Rena Sofer played ‘Lois’ so much better.

[@cuppycakesmommy567]

For real!!!

[@rah62]

It's a shame that the scab Edward was there instead of either of the two actors who *really* understood the character.

[@hair2show1031]

Only the FIRST Edward was the REAL Edward! Those were the BEST DAYS of GH.

[@gabelogan5877]

“Scab”. Not cool. Jed Allen was just a working actor hired to fill a role. When John Ingle was first fired, the producers tried to rehire him but he moved on to another role. So they had to fill the role with someone.

[@tootiewilson893]

General Hospital was my favorite soap opera

[@adamdicy]

Oh, yeah in 2004 after Anna Lee was let go from the show her son Jeffrey Byron really went to ABC and literally tore them a new one, so sexybrown305 he put the fear of god in them. The only sad thing about it is that no one had the heart to go and tell Anna Lee that she was fired after playing Lila Morgan Quartermaine from 1978-2004.

[@adamdicy]

What makes me mad, and all the GH fans that Anna Lee was abruptly let go from the show back in 2003, and no one had the heart to tell her and I read somewhere that her son Jeffrey Byron blasted ABC for his mother's firing.

[@lizpizano7684]

Adam Dicy i always thought tht she wasnt doing well so she worked less.

[@giotrapani7852]

@@lizpizano7684 she was paralyzed below the waist in a car accident in 1994 so she prolly knew the end was near in her last appearance in 2003.

No offence to the actor playing Edward but this storyline would have been so much better with either of the former Edwards.

[@sarahswomley2580]

They could have cut out the whole pill thing in the beginning

[@astronautmikejones]

What she did wasn't only gross, it was illegal. Jesus, Lois.

[@LBF522]

The writers on GH have written all of the parents as being awful. Luke and Robert along with Felicia.

[@blatheringblathers347]

Ruined in the name of Sonny, that is why!

[@jennloweryginnett1366]

It sounds like Felicia just has a weird accent and speaks through her nose.

[@twistedhalo759]

It's comical to hear Felicia talk about being there for her family when she wasn't there for hers and was called on it at......Georgie's funeral, of all places.

[@isaiahhill2104]

That was Guza rewrite garbage. She did seem to have a period in 99’-early 2000 where she neglected her family, but she was even there for Maxie when she got her first job at Kelly’s in 2002.

[@natalieps2387]

The latter gh brass like jill phelps & guza ruined gh. With fronsie. Anna lee was promised a lifetime contract on gh as long as she still wanted to act. This was by the previous regime . When the next regime took over they fired her. Her son says it broke her heart so much she died sooner than she would have. Some people stop living when they get old & have no work to go to or have lost a child .

[@angelicabond8724]

Jed was WAY young to play Edward he was a terrific actor but he ad Stuart were about the same age!

Sadly both have passed away Jed two years ago stu just a week ago.

[@ginacameron1545]

I am sorry but I just don't feel the Edward punch with this Edward. This is just my opinion.That was a tender scene with Jason though. It was just the delivery that was missing.

[@krisandrabutts6072]

I actually liked all 3 Edwards

Although I could not be away from my TV when GH was on - during the BEST years, 1980’s, I became wasn’t so impressed after Gloria Monty left, so I quit watching. But I know that actor who’s playing Edward. Jed Allen was on Days of Our Lives, for many years. I had no idea he played Edward. 👎🏻Bad casting. I was introduced to Edward by David Lewis - simply the best. I realize he passed before Anna Lee. John ingle was awesome also. Jed Allen NO

[@twistedhalo759]

Jed Allan was a great actor; I loved him as CC Capwell on Santa Barbara and Rush Saunders on the OG Beverly Hills 90210. With that said, he was a poor choice for the role of Edward Quartermaine. Wasn't he younger than Stuart Damon, who played Alan??

[@Stefanie2530]

Love Tracey's sarcasm-she's one of my fave GH characters. But I also love when we get to see her soft side.

[@babiphat20]

Completely forgot that kirsten storms hasnt always been maxie.

[@adamdicy]

Yup, John Ingle opted to leave GH to go to DAYS which was a huge mistake, they replace him with this idiot, he couldn't even act one bit. John Ingle played Edward Quartermaine for 11 years he took part in some of the most diabolical schemes like blackmailing Emily back in 2000 and other family drama, I for one am glad when John Ingle returned in April 2006.
