According to ABC Soaps in Depth, Patty – who has filled in for actresses on daytime shows like As The World Turns in the past – says that she feels so great on the set of General Hospital that she’s hoping to extend her run a little bit longer. It wasn’t easy at first, but she managed to settle in pretty quickly.
She said, “It was like jumping into ice water at first. But my background in theater and live TV kicked in. Everyone’s so supportive and kept saying, ‘You’re very brave.’ So I felt good about it.”
Patty is best known for her role as the evil Rhoda Penmark in the classic film The Bad Seed. But she’s no stranger when it comes to the world of daytime television, as she’s filled in some pretty big shoes before.
“I stepped in for Kathryn Hayes (Kim), who had an incidence of Bell’s palsy,” she explained. “It was way back in the late ‘70s for about three months.”
Fans will just have to tune in to see what’s next for Patty! Also, don’t forget that General Hospital airs weekdays on the ABC network. Check your local listings for times. In the meantime, drop us a line with your thoughts in our comments section below.

No .why so many liveing GH???
Leslie fell from a horse & is recouperating—-not sure why Dante is going…I like him.
Noooooo.. when’s Monica coming back !!!
No, no, NO!!! Leslie C. Get well soon and fast. Praying for your recovery!
DONT MESS WITH LESLIES JOB!!!!
I think she’s doing a great job filling in for Monica! She was a great replacement while Monica has been gone.
i hope Leslie C. Returns to the role. I don’t find Patty a good fit for the role of Monica. I could absolutely see her playing Helena though if they thought to resurrect the role.
Helena –wow yeah you know Helena is never going to die!! Although Monica can only ever be Leslie!! Patty is doing a terrific job though–I also liked the temp replacement for Maxie but I think facebook was really rough on her—hope they can give her a FT gig here.
Sure…I think she’s doing a great job! Of course we all miss Leslie. Filling in for a veteran is so difficult, and Patty is doing a great job!
No
I love Leslie but think Patty is doing a great job of filling in.
Absolutely not!!!
Characterization doesn’t even come close!!!
I don’t see her long time in the role we our dr Q back
Yes
