Filling in the shoes of a beloved actress on a long-running soap opera: who says that’s impossible?  It may not be the same, but it’s true that a network would make any gamble just to improve ratings.  For a series like General Hospital , it’s going to be tough to find a replacement for Vanessa Marcil’s own Brenda Barrett.  But hold your tear-jerking horses, since it’s only a rumor as of now.  In 2003, Vanessa Marcil left General Hospital after returning to the show following her six-year stint.  She was offered another chance to play Brenda this year, but she hasn’t responded yet since she was busy with another series, Lipstick Jungle .  However, someone who seems to have a lot of time on her hands is actress Alyssa Milano, who has been rumored to be the new Brenda.
