Erika Slezak, beloved for her decades as Viki on One Life to Live, is finally stepping onto General Hospital’s stage. According to her fan club president, Walter Miller, she has already completed her first week on set. Erika described her welcome as “warmly received,” highlighting the kindness of the GH cast and crew.

Reuniting with old daytime colleagues has made her transition easier. The actress revealed that reconnecting with friends from One Life to Live added comfort and familiarity to her new environment. While she misses her family and pets at home, Erika is fully embracing this new daytime adventure.

Erika shared that her schedule is already demanding, with long hours dedicated to learning scripts. She noted her evenings are now consumed by preparing lines for the following day’s work. Despite the hectic pace, she is excited and energized by the challenge.

Her fans are eager to see her Port Charles debut. Erika assured everyone that she will share her first airdate once it is finalized. Until then, speculation is running wild about which character she will portray, with many convinced she is joining the Quartermaine family tree.
