Jagger Returning to General Hospital
Today Twitter discussions circulated around talk of Antonio Sabato Jr. reprising the role of Jagger Cates on General Hospital. Fans have been Tweeting Frank Valentini addressing their excitement on a possible Jagger return. Nothing has been confirmed except Sabato Jr. Tweeted that he met with Valentini in 2012. What do you think? Should the people of Port Charles be graced with Jagger’s presence after all these years?

Maxie is Pregnant!
It looks like Maxie got what she wanted – sort of. After she miscarried while carrying Dante and Lulu’s baby, Maxie wanted nothing more than to be pregnant again, so they wouldn’t find out she lost their baby. Maxie went to Dr. Westborn to see if she would implant another one of Lulu’s eggs inside her. When Dr. Britt came back with Maxie’s blood panel results, they both got shocking news. Maxie IS pregnant… but it looks like it’s a Spixie baby. Although I would have loved for Spixie to be in this situation ready, willing, and happily together I would take it any way I can get it. Maxie has a lot to deal with right now. From dealing with Dante and Lulu, to handling rejection from Spinelli AGAIN, to now being pregnant with his baby, the question remains… What should Maxie do next?

Jason NOT Returning to General Hospital
I have been getting a lot of inquiries from fans wondering whether or not Steve Burton will be returning to GH as Jason Morgan. The answer for now is no. Steve Burton who played Jason Quartermaine/Morgan for 21 years on General Hospital has confirmed that he has signed on to The Young and the Restless on CBS. Obviously, things change at any given time in the soap world so there is not a solid answer on whether Steve will ever come back as Jason. For now, he is not. As for a recast of Jason, nothing has been said or confirmed on whether or not the character will eventually be played by another actor. Recently Steve Burton was a guest on The Talk and he explained how Y&R is willing to give him a flexible schedule so that he can keep his family in Tennessee where they choose to reside. This will make it easier for him to get back and forth to his family. I hope this clears up all the fan’s questions and concerns regarding Jason Morgan and Steve Burton’s status with General Hospital.

I just love this news! The New York post has named General Hospital one of the top 5 shows to watch in 2013. This is great news on so many levels. The fact that a soap opera was chosen at all in this supposed endangered soap opera time leads me to believe that GH is not going anywhere.
