The 50th annual Daytime Emmy Awards Postponed! As ABC’s General Hospital reaches its 60th anniversary, the daytime television as a whole meets it’s own major milestone. According to the latest daytime tv news, this year marks the 50th Annual Daytime Emmy Awards.
Originally, General Hospital news and spoilers indicated that the Daytime Emmy Awards was scheduled to air on June 16th on CBS. But GH spoilers reveal that due to the writer’s strike, everything is put on hold. The celebration requires professional writers to write the witty one liners and the host’s overall dialogue. With the WGA on strike, supporters and picketers complicate matters. More importantly, attendance might be very slim due to the support shown to the writers.
Daytime Emmy Awards Postponed
June 16th is right around the corner and we already bought our popcorn for the IG night. Sadly, General Hospital news reports confirm that the Awards show has not been cancelled. However, a new air date has yet to be determined, and is dependent upon a resolution for the WGA strike.
Fans can count on General Hospital Blog to deliver the latest GH spoilers, updates, news, rumors, and more. Please check back for further updates on the WGA strike, as well as more General Hospital news.
Is Victor Cassadine alive?! …Ding dong the wicked- well, the witch died long ago, but likes to pop up in nightmares. In fact, Helena Cassadine (Constance Towers) recently appeared in Valentin Cassadine’s (James Patrick Stuart) hallucinations. Thus proves soap opera deaths don’t play by the rules. So, what makes the fans so sure of Victor Cassadine’s (Charles Shaughnesssy) death?
When we reflect back on General Hospital recaps, it surely seemed like Victor was as dead as can be. Laura Spencer (Genie Francis) and the only remaining stable Cassadine family members sighed with relief over his demise. However, a recent comment has GH fans questioning whether or not Victor will be back to reek havoc on Port Charles. Although his lifeless body was clearly shown, new developments raise speculation.
Is Victor Cassadine Alive?!
According to General Hospital news reports, Shaughnessy may have just let the cat out of the bag in a statement to Soap Opera Digest. He told the outlet that he’s “not convinced Victor is completely gone.” Now, GH fans are left wondering. How can Victor return from the dead after we all saw him zipped up in a body bag? Well, this brings us right back to Helena and every other character who has “died,” just to emerge from some rock they had to hide under. Sometimes the characters resurface shortly after their presumed death. And other times it takes years.
Can Laura and her family and friends rest easy? Something (General Hospital rumors) tells us that they should sleep with one eye open.
Zeke returns to GH! Portia Robinson (Brook Kerr) and Curtis Ashford (Donnell Turner) were starting a beautiful life together when things came to a screeching halt. Trina Robinson (Tabyana Ali) had put her mother in the spot, and demanded answers.
As General Hospital recaps recall, Portia and Curtis had already said “I do,” in front of family and friends. Among the wedding guests was Portia’s brother Zeke Robinson (Gavin Houston). Zeke popped up in Port Charles in early February. On February 7th Zeke made his first appearance for Curtis’s bachelor party. Then, he was seen again on February 15th for his sister Portia’s wedding.
General Hospital news reports that Gavin Houston announced his upcoming General Hospital status. He revealed that Zeke returns to GH in a “meaty” storyline. We can only assume that Trina’s paternity mystery is so juicy that we can’t help but sink our teeth into it. GH rumors tease that Houston’s character is involved in his tv sister’s family drama. Specifically, Portia’s twenty year secret. Now that Trina has made a decision to test DNA, it’s only a matter of time until they know the truth.
According to Michael Fairman TV, General Hospital news reports reveal an interesting fact some may have missed. Prior to February of 2023, Gavin Houston already appeared on General Hospital. Houston made his first appearance in 2010 as Detective Sly Thomas.
Joss and Dex leave together?! …Michael Corinthos (Chad Duell) hired Dex Heller (Evan Hofer) as an informant. His mission was to get solid evidence against Michael’s own father, Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard). With that, Michael planned to turn over the evidence, and secure Sonny’s future behind bars.
Somewhere along the way Dex fell for Michael’s sister, Sonny’s ex stepdaughter, Josslyn Jacks (Eden McCoy). At first, Joss and Dex’s relationship was a secret because of Michael and Sonny. Neither wanted Dex anywhere near Joss, but she and Dex are adults who couldn’t resist the chemistry between them.
Currently, their relationship is out in the open, and Sonny’s blessing was an added bonus. When he found out, he told Josslyn that her mother is the only one who has a true say in what she does. As for Dex, Sonny was disappointed he kept the secret. However, Dex has saved Sonny’s life so it’s almost as if Sonny gave him a free pass.
According to General Hospital spoilers, Dex makes a choices about his future. Now that Michael called off the mission Dex risked his life for, Dex faces two unsatisfying options. He must choose to stay working for Sonny legitimately, in hopes that he’ll never find out his initial intentions. Or, flee Port Charles, never to be seen by Sonny or anyone again- including Joss.
GH previews indicate Dex tells Joss he has to leave. Moreover, GH rumors hint that she’ll vow to stand by her man and leave along with him. Regarding any potential GH exits, no news has come to the surface about McCoy and Hofer’s General Hospital status. Therefore, General Hospital comings and goings reports show no signs of these two exiting the 60 year old daytime drama. Rest assured, we will keep y’all posted on any developments!
Ryan left Esme everything! Esme Prince (Avery Kristen Pohl) arrived in Port Charles on a mission. While posing as Spencer Cassadine’s (Nicholas Alexander Chavez) doting girlfriend, the boarding school brat had a secret agenda. Ryan Chamberlain (Jon Lindtrom) was the mastermind behind the disturbing plot to come between Nikolas Cassadine (Marcus Coloma) and Ava Jerome (Maura West). Moreover, Ryan’s obsession with Ava lead to a sequence of unfortunate events.
According to General Hospital recaps, Esme’s amnesia took her from a dangerous con-artist to a loving and responsible new mother. Despite a personal vendetta against his ex, even Spencer sees Esme’s maternal instincts kick in. Spencer’s grandmother Laura Spencer Collins (Genie Francis) has been a constant support for Esme and baby Ace. After all, Ace is Laura’s grandson.
Ryan Left Esme Everything!?!?
General Hospital spoilers and rumors tease that Esme is presented with independence. According to GH rumors, Esme’s father Ryan left everything to his daughter. As a result, Esme acquires financial freedom. Currently, Esme’s vulnerable to her environment because she truly has nothing and no one else. But if GH rumors regarding her inheritance are true, Esme considers her options.
Does Ryan leave Esme the opportunity to break free from the Cassadine’s financial hold?

Anthony Geary’s Jackie Zeman tribute reminds us of why General Hospital has been going strong for 60 years. …It’s not every day actors jump aboard the ship of a new working endeavor and sail off into paradise. In reality, a well-written storyline can only take a show so far. But it’s the actors who light up the screen that make the magic happen. Arguably, much of General Hospital’s success can be attributed to it’s extraordinary cast.
In television, many times the chemistry between co-stars is nonexistent. And sometimes there is some underlying reason that a show, a storyline, or even the characters themselves become a flop. Most gratefully, that’s not the case when it comes to the actors who made General Hospital what it is today. Jackie Zeman leaves her legacy as having been part of what was quite possibly the most iconic daytime tv crew. Her group of co-stars and off-screen pals include Anthony Geary (Lucas Lorenzo Spencer), Genie Francis (Laura Webber Spencer Collins), Kristina Wagner and John J. York (Felicia and Mac Scorpio), among other veteran actors.
General Hospital News
Following the tragic news of Jackie Zeman’s passing, co-star and life-long friend Anthony Geary paid tribute to his former co-star and tv sibling. Geary’s statement was told to TV Line after news about Jackie broke out. He said, “I was fortunate enough to play Jackie Zeman’s big brother on General Hospital. In all those years, I never heard her utter one disparaging word about any actor, crew member or co-worker. In fact, I never heard Jackie express an unkind word about anyone, ever.
“In a highly competitive profession where ego, feelings and emotions are bread and butter, I’ve found this quality to be extremely rare. I expect it will be even more rare now that dear Jackie is gone,” he added. “She was quite simply one of the kindest, sweetest people I have ever known.”
That has got to be the most genuine thing to say about someone. Although we didn’t know her personally, it’s obvious that Jackie’s presence was a peaceful, lighthearted, and positive spirit to be around. Thanks to Geary, the fans have a better understanding of who Jaclyn Zeman was as a beloved mother, friend, actor, and more.
Over the years, Zeman and Geary became close friends. The love and respect they have for one another is crystal clear in Anthony’s statement. When reflecting on his friend’s life, he added, “I will miss her laugh, and the deep, soulful look in her eyes whenever she expressed the love and pride she had in her two lovely daughters. Tonight, l already miss her, and feel a powerful ache where Jackie’s smile used to be.”
We continue to keep Jackie’s loved ones in our thoughts and prayers. Please keep checking back for updates regarding GH’s tribute episode.

Taggert warns Portia to stay out of it when it comes to Trina and Spencer! …Although Marcus Taggert (Réal Andrews) and Portia Robinson (Brook Kerr) split up long ago, they are both very involved parents. They’ve each remained heavily involved in their daughter Trina Robinson’s (Tabyana Ali) life. Simply put, they want the best for their daughter, and continue to worry about the choices she makes.
Over in Greenland, Trina and Spencer Cassadine (Nicholas Alexander Chavez) have a happy reunion. Meanwhile, back home in Port Charles, Trina’s mother awaits her own reunion with Trina. Recent General Hospital recaps recall the sensitive nature of Portia and Trina’s current relationship. After having betrayed her family, Portia’s lies brought forth consequences. Prior to the tragic events on the Haunted Star, relationship with Trina showed signs of strain.
According to General Hospital news reports, Réal Andrews returns to GH as Trina’s father, Marcus Taggert. Despite Portia’s paternity drama, Taggert raised Trina and will always be her father. Although it’s possible that Curtis Ashford (Donnell Turner) is Trina’s biological father, that won’t stop Taggert from fulfilling his fatherly duties. Thankfully, both Taggert and Curtis love Trina and will do anything to keep her safe.
General Hospital spoilers and previews tease that Portia and Trina’s reunion is filled with gratitude for her safe return. However, GH rumors say that their relationship is still on thin ice. Despite almost losing each other, tension between the mother daughter duo could creep back into play if Portia says her piece about Spencer. General Hospital spoilers indicate that when it comes to Trina and Spencer, Taggert warns Portia to stay out of it. In addition, he reminds Portia that putting the blame on Spencer isn’t a great idea. If she wants to keep Trina close, telling her adult daughter who she can and cannot see isn’t going to fly with this obviously capable and independent young woman. Will Portia take Taggert’s advice? Or will she push her limits with Trina during this rocky period in their relationship?
