Sonny takes over General Hospital’s Christmas Story Tradition

I don’t know about you but I think that the perfect way for Sonny to contribute to General Hospital isn’t of monetary value. This contribution is something money can’t, or shouldn’t buy, especially this time of year.

Sonny’s conversation with Stella (Vernee Watson) lit the path for an upcoming storyline. Currently, Port Charles is in the thick of its holiday season. The infamous Quartermaine Thanksgiving has passed and everyone is moving toward Christmas and New Years. General Hospital Christmas episodes are iconic. From miracles to tragedies, GH Christmases are unforgettable. Historically, the one thing we could count on was Steve Hardy and the Christmas story.

Sonny Takes Over General Hospital’s Christmas Story

After many years and Hardy’s passing, Alan Quartermaine (Stuart Damon) took over. Those years were just as magical. Then, after his death, consistency went out the window. However, there still have been many memorable Christmases in Port Charles. One year, Monica Quartermaine (Leslie Charleson) read the story!

General Hospital spoilers and rumors hint that there may be a new tradition in town. Sonny’s conversation with Stella started a buzz around social media. Many feel that Sonny Corinthos should take over, and not just this once. Do you think that Sonny should carry on Steve and Alan’s tradition?

Do you have a strong opinion on Sonny playing Santa? Please participate in our GH Poll!

His past co-stars and life long friends shared their condolences to his family with a heavy heart, while expressing their fondness and admiration for such a kind, talented, and legendary man.

General Hospital spoilers reveal GH will create a special tribute episode that will air in honor of Stuart, and is iconic role on General Hospital as Alan Quartermaine.

General Hospital news reports reveal a very telling statement by on-screen wife, Leslie Charleson, who played beside Damn for decades as Monica Quartermaine. At the time of learning of her co-star’s passing, Charles stated, “This is the 30th anniversary for the two of us, in August. The timing leaves me very discouraged about the way soaps are going, the total disregard for history and the blatant disregard for the veterans.” When Damon was fired in 2007 by Jill Farren Phelps, at the order of Brian Frons and Anne Sweeney, Charleson, among many other leading co-stars, spoke out against the decision to just throw away a veteran character.

Although killed off the show in 2007, Damon made appearances heee and there as a ghost and hallucinations, and his last appearance was during GH’s 50th anniversary in 2013.

General Hospital news and spoilers have yet to reveal any details on when this tribute episode will air or what the premise will be other than the obvious. Like the tribute episode for John Reilly and is role as Sean Donnelly, this episode’s main focus will be on the life of Alan Quartermaine. But it’s not clear if there will be a separate storyline as there was in the episode honoring John/Sean.
