Yesterday, General Hospital Blog shared a rumor that had been flying around, claiming that Michael Easton was leaving General Hospital. As it turns out, that rumor has become true.
Michael Easton joined GH after the fallout of our two beloved ABC soaps, All My Children and One Life to Live. He first came to Port Charles as John McBain, his character’s name from Llanview on OLTL. Due to legal issues between Prospect Park and ABC, ABC was forced to change the OLTL name. With some clever writing, Michael Easton soon became Dr. Silas Clay, with ties to the show, Port Charles.
This morning, Daytime Confidential has confirmed that Michael Easton has ended his character as Dr. Silas Clay on General Hospital.
How do you feel about this breaking news? GH Blog is uncertain if Michael Easton has decided to walk away from GH or if the actor was let go. We will keep you updated with any information related to this story.
General Hospital has definitely got some strong willed, opinionated, feisty, women, running around Port Charles. These are the women who won’t take sh*t from anyone, who stand their ground, fight for what they feel is right, fight for their man, and they don’t let anyone walk all over them.
Laura Wright and Kirsten storms play two women that fit this description perfectly. Carly and Maxie and beautiful, strong, and they aren’t going to let anyone mess with them or the ones they love.
General Hospital spoilers reveal that Carly and Maxie will be having scenes together in the near future. Laura and Kirsten exchanged messages on Twitter, expressing their excitement to be working together.
We can’t wait to see what Maxie Jones and Carly Corinthos Jacks have to say to one another. Will they play nice, or will these two gals butt heads?
The latest casting buzz following the news of GH Head Writer, Ron Carlivati being let go, is that Michael Easton may be on his way out. Michael Easton joined the cast of General Hospital after One Life to Live was cancelled. Easton went on to continue playing the role of John McBain until ABC had some legal issues with using the names from the axed soap. The GH writers were forced to drop the OLTL names, and wrote Michael Easton as Dr. Silas Clay.
Rumor has it that Michael is on his way out, but nothing has yet been confirmed. Daytime Confidential has also reported of this rumor, apparently, this type of news travels quickly.
It seems as though there has been much potential for Silas. First with Sam (Kelly Monaco), then with Nina (Michelle Stafford), and also with Ava Jerome (Maura West). There is so much that could be done with his character, since he has Kiki (Hayley Erin) as his daughter, Nina as his crazy ex-wife, Ava his ex-mistress and their love/hate relationship. A while back there was a GH rumor going around that Nina didn’t actually lose her baby with Silas, but that Madeline and Ava were in cahoots to take Nina’s baby (Kiki) and pass her off as the product of Ava and Silas’ affair.
Hopefully with the new writing team coming into place, they will be able to find a way to elaborate on Silas’ past and develop his character. Many fans have expressed that a Silas and Ava pairing would be a great idea, especially since there is so much history between those two.
General Hospital Blog will keep fans posted on any new developments related to the status of Michael Easton with General Hospital.
We want to know what you think! Would you like to see Michael Easton stay on GH as Silas Clay?
Big changes are about to happen behind the scenes at General Hospital. As we learned last week, General Hospital’s Head Writer, Ron Carlivati has been let go after 4 years at GH. He has been replaced by two co-writers, Jean Passanante, and Shelly Altman.
Ron Carlivati broke his silence after the GH news was announced regarding his status with the show. Carlivati reached out to his colleagues and fans via social media, using Twitter as a way to let the audience know there aren’t any ill feelings.
GH cast members returned the gratitude in tweets that thanked Ron for what he has done in the last 4 years.
Take a look at the Twitter exchanges below.
Thanks to everyone @GeneralHospital for 4 wonderful years. And thanks to the #GH fans for all your love & support. It means the world to me.
Thank you @carlivatiron for your words- filled with heart and laughter ? ?? thank you for your hard work and enthusiasm XOXO!! — Laura Wright (@lldubs) July 24, 2015
@TheRealStafford Thanks, Michelle. It was an honor to write for you. xoxo
General Hospital Blog would like to congratulate General Hospital’s Teresa Castillo, (Sabrina Santiago) on the announcement of her second pregnancy. Castillo gave birth to baby girl, Victoria, what seems to be not too long ago.
Teresa announced the news via social media, explaining that her daughter will be getting a little brother.
We are uncertain whether or not this pregnancy will be written into the GH script. If fans recall, when Teresa was pregnancy with her first child, Sabrina was also pregnant with Patrick Drake’s baby, that they ended up losing because they were in a car accident, caused by Rafe, on Victor Cassadine’s orders.
Share this post and help us say congratulations to Teresa Castillo and her family.
Check out the Instagram announcement below!
In today’s tweets, there were some mixed signals flying regarding Nicholas Bechtel’s status with General Hospital. General Hospital Blog would like to clarify that he actor assures his fans that little Spencer Cassadine is “just fine.” Take a look at his most recent tweet, letting fans know that he isn’t going anywhere.
It’s not unlike the soap world to SORAS (Soap Opera Rapid Age Syndrome) the little ones on the show from time to time. We haven’t seen much of the kids of Port Charles lately, including the fan favorite, Spencer Cassadine.
Today, in a comment via Twitter, the actor, Nicolas Bechtel tweeted “When one door closes another one opens.”
It’s uncertain whether or not the young actor was speaking of himself as in working at GH, another aspect of his life, or regarding something else entirely. Some fans have expressed that Nicolas may have tweeted that regarding the recent General Hospital news about Head Writer, Ron Carlivati being replaced.
It seems unlikely that there would be a need to write Spencer Cassadine off the show, or age him drastically enough to have to change the actor who plays the part. We sure hope that Nicolas was referring to another situation, and not his current status with General Hospital.
Let us know what you think. Do you think they are aging Spencer Cassadine and are ready to recast the role?
Check out Nicolas Bechtel’s tweet below!
When one door closes ? another one opens

The entire month of July, the ABC Network and GH have paid tribute to Tony Geary by putting together many video compilations of his work on General Hospital. There have been countless interviews with Tony, discussing his work and his life on the set of General Hospital over the past 37 years. Tony’s co-stars, friends, and loved ones have expressed their feelings toward the experiences they have had with Tony, what he means to them, and how much he will be missed.
Saying goodbye to Luke Spencer won’t be easy, but on today’s episode of General Hospital, we will see Tony play Lucas Lorenzo Spencer for the very last time.
Tony Geary has made such an amazing mark in the world of not just Daytime Drama, but as an iconic figure for many, making himself a household name to many adoring fans.

The entire month of July, General Hospital has been releasing #FarewellTony videos, to honor the legendary Tony Geary, for his amazing work on General Hospital for 37 years. Tony has made Luke Spencer a household name, and has touched the hearts of so many.
This most recent video posted on the General Hospital Facebook Page, Kirsten Storms (Maxie Jones), Ian Buchanan (Duke Lavery), and Laura Wright (Carly Corinthos Jacks), and ABC’s The Chew, bid Tony farewell in this heartfelt video message that will have you in tears.
Don’t miss the surprise star at the end of the video, it will turn your tears into ironic laughter. Tony has shares so many memories with many different co-stars on General Hospital, and it’s certain that they all wish him much love and happiness, even if he is a villain in Port Charles… 😉 Check it out!
Rumors have been spreading like wild fire in the last week regarding General Hospital’s Head Writer, Ron Carlivati. The last few weeks, GH ratings have been low, but in the most recent week, ratings again began to rise. It truly is a roller coaster, the way these ratings go out of control. You know what they say, “you can’t please them all.” That’s quite accurate when it comes to General Hospital fans. No matter what is going on on the forefront, there will always be a group of fans who would rather complain and moan and groan, than to support the show that they choose to love. That being said, all the latest talk about the writing on GH brought about rumors that Carlivati was about to be let go.
General Hospital spoilers reveal breaking news, that in fact GH Head Writer, Ron Calivati has been let go and will be replace by two co-headwriters, Shelley Altman and Jean Passanante. According to Soaps in Depth, these changes will take place August 10th, 2015.
Here are some words from the executives: “We are pleased to welcome back two esteemed writers to our GH family,” said Vicki Dummer, Executive VP current series programming, regarding the announcement. “Shelley and Jean’s combined talents and experiences promise to continue the show’s legacy of compelling storytelling that will resonate with our impassioned viewers. We’re delighted with what they have in store for the show as they continue honoring the rich, diverse environs of Port Charles.”
GH social media, including Twitter, Facebook, fan groups, etc., will be buzzing after the confirmation of Carlivati’s exit. Please share this post in hope that we spread the truth, and facts, and less of the rumors and hearsay.
