Excerpt:

(EW. com) -- It's the comeback that "General Hospital" fans have been waiting for: the Emmy-winning Genie Francis, who spent a little over a year on "The Young and the Restless," will return to the ABC soap that made her a household name, EW has learned exclusively. Francis just closed a deal to reprise her role as Laura Spencer for the drama's 50th anniversary this year. She'll report to the sudser's Los Angeles, California, set sometime later this month for a February 11 debut, which is actually 50 days before the series' April 1 anniversary. It's unclear how long Francis, a.k.a. Laura, will stick around Port Charles this time. Lance Armstrong agrees to Oprah Q&A Speculation about Francis returning to GH fired up as soon as she left Y&R in November, where she played Genevieve Atkinson since May of 2011. "Everywhere I was being asked!" Francis tells EW.

• Aggregate Sentiment is meant to be an indicator of an individual's overall sentiment.
• The Mean is meant to be an indicator of an individual's average comment sentiment.
• The Standard Deviation, when there are enough quotes, will indicate an individual's consistency of sentiment (i.e. a Standard Deviation of 0 would mean they were very consistent in their sentiment and 1 would mean they were very inconsistent).

Note that quote stats are likely to be meaningless beyond the aggregate score due to the tiny sample size. However, they are always provided just in case you find something useful there.
