Fans of General Hospital star Kelly Monaco have had a tough few weeks. Rumors began circulating that her character, Sam McCall, might be written off the show, which caused a lot of concern among viewers. As news spread that Sam could be facing her final moments, supporters quickly rallied. Thousands signed a petition to show their love for Monaco and to urge ABC to reconsider letting her go. Then, viewers were in for another surprise when they tuned in and saw that Kelly Monaco had been temporarily replaced by Lindsay Hartley, a former star of Passions. Hartley has filled in for Monaco in the past when recasts were needed, but this time it felt different since there were reports of Monaco's exit. Fans weren’t thrilled about the swap, especially given the uncertainty surrounding Sam’s future. #gh #kellymonaco #spoiler
