I found this on Soap Central. What do you think? I may set my DVR to record it for me and check it out. My husband may flip if I get addicted to another soap opera. LOL Night Shift Cast Announced Posted Wednesday, April 11, 2007 7:54:34 PM Billy Dee Williams has joined the cast of SOAPnet's primetime General Hospital spinoff, General Hospital: Night Shift.
