Maurice Benard Celebrates 22 Years as Sonny Corinthos
Maurice Benard Celebrates 22 Years as Sonny Corinthos! General Hospital news and spoilers report an impressive milestone. His hard work and dedication to the role is appreciated by GH fans across the board.
Reportedly, today marks the day that Maurice Benard debuted as Port Charles mobster, Sonny Corinthos. On August 13th, 1993, Sonny arrived in Port Charles. He quickly made a name for himself around town, and he soon developed a reputation.
General Hospital Blog would like to congratulate Maurice on his 22 year run as one of the most well known television names in Daytime TV. According to recent GH news, Maurice tells fans how he only wanted to sign a 6 month contract with the Soap Opera. However, things didn’t happen quite like that. Thankfully, 6 months as Sonny Corinthos turned into over two decades. Twenty-two years later and we still race to our television sets every day of the week. And after cliffhanger Friday, Monday can’t come soon enough.
To many fans General Hospital just wouldn’t be the same without the mob boss. Undoubtedly, Port Charles changed forever when Maurice joined GH’s cast as Sonny Corinthos. We want to thank Maurice for his hard work and talents, and everything he does to keep fans coming back for more.
@WeLoveSoapsTV I only wanted a six month contract? I couldn’t leave
The role of Agent Sloane was originally portrayed by actor, Robb Derringer. For reasons that remain unknown, Derringer exited the role of Agent Sloane, and was replaced by Grayson McCouch.
An out-pour of support was expressed on many social media sites for Robb Derringer, leaving fans puzzled as to why the role was recast. Many fans expressed that they wanted Derringer back. It looks as though those requests have been answered in a positive way.
The last we saw of Sloane (Grayson McCouch was when Anna was leaving for the Summer to spread Duke’s ashes. When Finola Hughes returns this Fall, Anna will be back in Port Charles, along with Agent Sloan- the original.
General Hospital has switched up this character by recasting Grayson McCouch with Robb Derringer who originated the role.
The last time we saw Anna Devane, she was mourning the loss of her true love, Duke Lavery. She said her goodbyes and went of to spread Duke’s ashes. Finola Hughes went on Summer hiatus, but will be retutning to the canvas very soon.
In a twitter announcement, the actress confirmed on August 6th, that she will be back at GH taping her scenes this week. On August 10th, she tweeted she was back on set.
Look for Finola Hughes in Port Charles, as Anna Devane, early this Fall.
Check out her confirmation tweet! GH Blog is so happy to announce the return of this GH beauty.
Liz doesn’t deserve the kindness that Sam has bestowed upon her. Selflessly, Sam has shown nothing but warmth and genuine support for Elizabeth, all while Liz is lying through her teeth to Sam’s face. These two have been through a lot together and they truly have never been each other’s biggest fan. Still, they are cordial, and Sam has gone above and beyond to be nice to Elizabeth.
Apparently this moment with Sam in the chapel wasn’t enough for Elizabeth to feel any sort of empathy for Sam, and surely wasn’t enough for Liz to come clean. Although Sam has put their differences aside to offer Elizabeth some advice, Liz still will only think of herself and her own happiness.
It’s safe to say that many hearts went out to Sam during this scene where she told Elizabeth (in regard to marrying Jake), to do whatever will make her happy. Elizabeth has definitely succeeded in pulling the wool over Sam’s eyes, leaving her in that dark about Jason. Elizabeth had the nerve to look to Sam for advice on marrying the man she knows belongs to Sam. Soon, Liz’s world will come to a screeching halt.
What is Sam going to do when she finds out Elizabeth has been hoarding her husband for herself this entire time? Today Liz and Sam hug, in the near future, these two ladies will be exchanging something that is a far cry from an embrace.
Tell us what you want to happen with Elizabeth and Sam.
Share this post if you want Liz to get what’s coming to her…
Rebecca Budig joined the cast of General Hospital back in February of this year. She is well known for her role on the former ABC soap All My Children, as Greenlee Smythe. She joined GH earlier this year as a con-artist named Hayden Barnes. Hayden’s main story was revolved around the big Jason Morgan identity crisis. Last month it was announced that Budig was returning to General Hospital, she signed a contract with the show, and her character Hayden was waking from her coma.
General Hospital spoilers and news have hit social media with more details of Budig’s contract with GH. The actress has signed a whopping 4 year contract with the ABC soap. It goes without saying, but it’s apparent that Hayden will be sticking around Port Charles for the foreseeable future.
As a daytime favorite, Rebecca Budig stole the hearts of her fans with her memorable role as Greenlee on AMC. She is no stranger to daytime, and will make a wonderful, full-time addition to the cast of General Hospital.
Where would you like to see the writers take this character? We want to know the fan’s thoughts on Budig’s 4 year contract, the character of Hayden Barnes, and what they would like to see for Hayden, including love interest, etc. Please leave your comments and share with friends.
One of the most controversial fan base wars has just taken the drama to an entirely new level. The Liason vs. JaSam wars date back to practically a decade, and it doesn’t look like there will be an end to all the chaos any time soon. General Hospital fans have been waiting for what seems like forever for the big Jason Morgan reveal. Ever since Billy Miller took over the role of Jason Morgan, and stepped into Steve Burton’s shoes, true Jason and Sam fans have been waiting (im)patiently for their great love to be reunited. All the while, Elizabeth and Jason fans have been in their glory during the current story line involving the love between Jake Doe (Jason) and Liz.
We all know that Elizabeth and Nikolas are keeping an enormous secret from the rest of Port Charles. Aside from Laura and Lucky Spencer, they have told no one of Jake’s true identity. Helena knows that Jake is really Jason because she is the reason Jason “died” in the first place. Hayden Barnes is well aware of Jake’s true identity, but since she is having trouble with her memory after waking up from a coma, the threat she poses has been put on the back burner. Nikolas however, isn’t taking any chances, and he has proposed to Hayden, that she live at Wyndemere.
This story line just crossed a new level of drama, as Jake asked Elizabeth to marry him. Unsure of what to do, Elizabeth turned to God for a sign. Although she knows Jake really is married to Sam, and Sam walked into the chapel as Liz was asking for a sign from above, she still, despite everything she knows about Jake and his loved ones, told him yes to marriage.
In General Hospital spoilers and news, recently GH’s Head Writer, Ron Carlivati was let go and replaced by two co-writers, Jean Passanante and Shelly Altman. Currently, the show is still airing episodes written by Carlivati, but soon enough, that will all change. It goes without saying that this wedding will ultimately end in disaster, if Liz and Jake even make it to the altar. General Hospital rumors have been speculating, that the big Jason reveal is going to happen sooner rather than later. The current changes with the GH writing team gives fans hope that this story will be moving along more quickly now, and that Jake will soon find out he is Jason Morgan. More importantly, Sam and Jason will be reunited as husband and wife. For the time being, Liason fans are enjoying the ride, however, Jason and Sam will inevitably be reunited. That will make for one disastrous wedding indeed.
How will it all go down? Give us your thoughts and theories revolving around Liz and Jake’s demise, in preparation for the JaSam reunion. Will they make it down the aisle before Sam finds out that Jason is alive, and Elizabeth is marrying her husband and the father of her son, Danny?
When fans found out that Michael Easton’s character, Silas Clay had been written out of the show, GH executives received a lot of backlash from that decision. Easton is a long time ABC soap vet, gaining most of his popularity as John McBain from ABC’s One Life to Live.
When he joined the vast of General Hospital, Michael Easton reprised his role as John McBain from Llanview, only now then he resided in Port Charles. Due to legal issues between ABC and Prospect Park, GH was no longer allowed to use the name John McBain. Easton was then brought to the show, as the brother of Stephen Clay, from the GH spin off, Port Charles.
General Hospital rumor has it that co-stars such as Kelly Monaco (Sam Morgan), are very displeased with the way Easton and his character were written off the show. The buzz started at the General Hospital Fan Club Weekend in California, where people claim that Monaco expressed her dissatisfaction with losing Easton at GH.
It is now our chance to help get Michael Easton back to General Hospital as Silas. There is a petition with almost 8,000 signatures already. All we have to do is band together and sign, in hopes that TPTB will be able to bring this character back, despite the way the story for Silas was written under Ron Carlivati’s doings. Now that Carlivati has been let go from GH and Jean Passanante and Shelly Altman are taking over, there is possibility that we can get Silas back to Port Charles.
Please help us get Michael Easton back on General Hospital! CLICK HERE to sign the petition.
Share this post as many times as possible in order to maximize the potential of every signature to get Easton back.
GH Blog wants to thank you in advance for you support.
This cannot be expressed enough, “don’t believe everything you read.” Especially when it comes to the internet. Today, many internet sources post false information and completely misleading headlines just to get an audience to view their posts. In this particular case, that is exactly what has happened.
Despite the rampant rumors regarding the return of Kristen Alderson as Kiki Jerome, that line of you know what, is absolutely false. This rumor is the result of a non-credible source, trying to cause a stir with GH fans, simply for the clicks and publicity.
General Hospital Blog wanted to clarify, and let you all know that Nathan Varni has confirmed, Kristen Alderson is NOT returning to GH, that it’s not in the works.
Please check out the screen shot below which a fan asks about Kristen, and Nathan responds.
Kristen also clears up the rumor via twitter.
No truth to the rumors. Sorry guys! Where do they come up with this stuff? lol
The ABC soap vet and All My Children alum, Rebecca Budig, joined the cast of General Hospital back in March of this year. She was brought on as her character was part of the Jason Morgan/Jake Doe story line. As of right now, in Port Charles, Hayden Barnes, played by Budig, holds the key to Jason’s true identity.
Sure, other people are aware that Jake Doe (Billy Miller) is actually Jason. Those people include, Nikolas Cassadine (Tyler Christopher), Elizabeth Webber (Rebecca Herbst), Lucky Spencer (Jonathan Jackson), and Laura Spencer (Genie Francis). Well since Nikolas is the original person to harbor this secret and let Liz in on it because she is in love with Jake/Jason, and since Nik is now acting like a full blown Cassadine, there’s no chance of him or Liz coming clean. Nikolas told Lucky about this so that Lucky could have peace of mind if he decided to leave town. Knowing that Jason Morgan was caring for his children, Lucky felt it was right for him to leave and let Liz be happy. Therefore, Lucky has skipped town, and won’t be back to tell for the foreseeable future. Laura Spencer overheard a conversation Nikolas was having that she obviously was never meant to hear. Although she doesn’t agree with what Nikolas and Liz are doing, she feels that it isn’t her place to reveal the truth and expose their lies.
This leaves Hayden Barnes. Hayden is the woman that Nikolas out a hit out on in order to keep her quiet. Recently, Patrick has been receiving reports of her condition, that she is waking up.
General Hospital spoilers have revealed that Rebecca Budig has already started taping for GH, and her character will return this Fall. According to Soap Opera Digest, Budig has signed a contract with General Hospital and is here to stay… well at least she’s here until her contract is up.
General Hospital Blog will keep fans updated on any news related to Rebecca’s status with GH.

There have been multiple breaking news stories regarding the cast and crew of General Hospital this past week. Some news disappointing, some see them as it being a good time for a change. However, this most recent GH breaking news is one that should make the majority of General Hospital fans extremely happy.
One of our personal favorites on General Hospital, spoilers have just revealed that actress, Lexi Ainsworth will be returning to General Hospital to reprise her role as Kristina Corinthos Davis. The daughter of Alexis and Sonny, sister of Sam Morgan and Molly, Kristina has been on and off the canvas for years.
Lexi Ainsworth joined the cast of General Hospital in 2009, and was replaced by Lindsey Morgan in 2012. It was rumored that the executives over at GH wanted a more mature looking young woman for the role. GH received a lot of backlash when Ainsworth exited the daytime drama, as fans were unhappy with her departure,
Soap Opera Digest has conformed the return of Lexi as Kristina and it has been said that she is expected to make her first air date in late August to early September.
General Hospital Blog is ecstatic to welcome Lexi back to General Hospital, as her performance as Kristina was absolutely STELLAR.
The Davis Girls are back! Help celebrate with us! Share this post and let your fellow GH friends know the good news!
