Below are
some comments by fan about Finola's Anna character.
 Ta-Ta!:
Didn't AMC's Anna (not to mention fans of her portrayer, Finola Hughes) deserve
a better exit than she received? Seeing as just about every case she ever
investigated- in Pine Valley or Port Charles- involved her friends and family,
having the cop skip town because she was too intimately involved with those
caught up in the Cambias case made no sense. Worse, she left town without saying
farewell to her nephew, Aidan! The least she could have done was leave him a
note like the one Jackson received! (SID 10/28/03)
Fan Campaign of
the Week: This week, fans are talking about AMC'S Anna and daughter Robin.
Many are wondering why the duo hasn't reunited on-screen for Anna's pregnancy
and birth. "Robin would never choose anything over being with her family in
a time of need," huffed one viewer. "She should at least return for a little while to lend Anna support."

 The
Fine Line: As much as we've enjoyed David and Anna's love/hate relationship,
the writers need to realize that a little back-and-forth goes a long way. In a
single recent episode, David tried to win over Anna, who rejected his attempt at
wooing her, after which the dejected doc declared himself unworthy, leaving the
mother of his child attempting her love! Miss a day, miss a case of romatic
whiplash! (SID 12/10/02)
Sister,
Sister-
"Just when I thought I was through with AMC for good, the powers-that-be
brought back GH's Anna Devane as Alex's twin sister," praised an ABC
enthusiast. "Now AMC has a chance to recapture the magic they've been
losing. Tears came to my eyes when Anna briefly remembered her husband, Robert
Scorpio, and their daughter, Robin. Those were the days on GH. Maybe AMC can
talk to some of the actors who played Anna's family and friends about appearing
on the show." (SOD 4/3/01)
No Place Like Home-
Robin's flight to AMC has ruffled the feathers of GHites. "I can't believe
ABC has the nerve to reunite Anna and Robin on AMC," blasted a GH viewer.
"That belongs on GH." Others hope the reunion will pave the way for
both women to return to GH. "I'll enjoy seeing Robin on AMC," admitted
a fan. "And I hope that Robin will escort Anna home to Port Charles and GH,
where Anna's life is." (SOD 5/15/01)
 A New Home-
"I am a former GH viewer who is enjoying the Anna/Alex storyline on AMC.
Finola Hughes is doing an outstanding job portraying both Devane sisters, and I
applaud AMC for having the guts to tell Anna's story. Watching Anna struggle as
she regains her strength and memories and becomes the Anna we all loved is what
makes this story interesting. The GH of today is different from the one that
Hughes left nine years ago. I'm not even sure the show has room on its canvas
for a strong, female character like Anna Devane. Luckily, AMC does." (SID

Robin's Return-
"Thank you, AMC, for bringing the wonderfully talented Kimberly McCullough
(Robin) back to daytime!" says Heather S. of Redwood City, CA. "She
has been sorely missed. Let's just hope that Kimberly- and Robin's- next visit
will be longer." But some, like Phyllis Naylor of Morenci, MI, would rather
see the character where they believe she belongs. "Please bring Robin back
to Port Charles to be with Mac and her friends." (SID 6/24/01)
The Phantom
Menace- "After consulting our spy-games handbook, we finally figured
out why Anna's return has left us a tad disappointed. As any James Bond fan
knows, every spy story needs a charismatic villain, and none have been present
in this story. Seeing Anna, one of daytime's most progressive and spunky ladies,
be addled by amnesia and forced to cower (a WSB agent... cower?) for so
long for fear of a faceless foe turned the former snapdragon into a shrinking
violett. Whether the baddie is Charlotte, Fiason or someone else, let's give
Anna someone whose butt needs kicking!" (SID editors, SID 7/10/2001)
 Who is Alex?- Fans
are buzzing about the arrival of Hunt Block's Guy in Pine Valley.
"I'm sure he somehow is connected to the mystery of Alex's
past," writes G. Landers of George. "But I'm dying to find out
exactly how! Ever since Finola Hughes and Alex first debuted, I've been
glued to my screen!" (SID 4/4/2000)
The Mystery of
Love- Alex's past may be shrouded in mystery, but there's one thing that's
perfectly clear to fans: She and Edmund are ideal together! "I thought I'd never
accept anyone but Maria in his arms," writes M.B. of Chicago, IL. "But that was
before Alex came along! Knowing that Maria could possibly return again makes
this story all the more fascinating!" (SID 5/2/2000)
