Although it seems as though Detective Ronnie Dimestico spends most of his time on General Hospital trying to arrest members of the mob or yelling at others for not doing the same, with new storylines on the horizon, his portrayer, Ronnie Marmo, is hopeful that there will be a new dawn for his character as well.

Examiner: So Ronnie, there’s a new head writer at the helm of General Hospital. What does that mean for Detective Dimestico?
Ronnie: I hope it means good things! I just shot some stuff where I’m working with Lucky, so I’m excited about that. I’m hoping to be involved in the whole prescription drug ring story. You know, it’s exciting because it’s a new time. I don’t know, we’ll see what happens. I’m certainly working a lot coming up, I just don’t know what I’m doing yet, so that’s good news.
