Will Maxie Jones (Kirsten Storms) ever be able to find an honest man after losing Nathan West (Ryan Paevey)?
That is the question General Hospital fans are asking after watching Maxie go through Hell with Peter August (Wes Ramsey).
Roger Howarth has morphed from Franco Baldwin to Doctor Austin Holt after Franco unexpectedly died at the hand of Maxie’s crazy ex, Peter. But is there more to it than just a character switch up as both Franco and Austin are played by Howarth? Some GH rumors suggest an eerie connection.
General Hospital spoilers and previews indicate Austin is dealing with a mystery man- the one who showed up in Pautuck while camping with Maxie and the Port Charles Pioneers. An innocent and fun event has revealed a dark side.
General Hospital spoilers indicate that Austin is hiding something from Maxie, possibly dealing with a threat on his own. He warned the peeper to stay away from Maxie and her family, but dans wonder why he had to specify. What does said mystery man want?
General Hospital rumors claim Austin may have more in common with Franco than simply sharing is appearance. While some GH rumors speculate that Peter August is still alive and could be stalking Maxie in the woods, this seems to be more about Austin than Maxie.
Fans were caught off guard and remain disappointed that Franco has died and Elizabeth Webber’s (Rebecca Herbst) family has been turned upside down. While she’s recovering in Shady Brook, the man who murdered her husband could be lurking. But the big question is why would Peter want anything to do with Austin- unless Austin IS Franco or quite possibly he his twin.
Nikolas Cassadine’s (Marcus Coloma) parenting skills have been questionable in more recent years.
In Spencer’s (Nicholas Alexander Chavez) eyes he has begrudged his father for faking his death and leaving his only child to believe he was dead, to then choosing Ava Jerome (Maura West) over him after her betrayal; Spencer and Nikolas haven’t been close in years.
General Hospital spoilers reveal all bad things rise to the surface and eventually Spencer (and Ava) will find out about Nikolas and Esme’s (Avery Kristen Pohl) romp in the hay.
Just tack on another dark cloud over Nikolas as he shows his son yet again that he isn’t his priority. General Hospital spoilers and rumors suggest that Esme will not hesitate to throw herself and Nikolas under the bus to reach her endgame- destroying the Cassadine family. Nothing will hurt Spencer and Ava more than finding out Esme slept with Nikolas- and is now pregnant!
GH spoilers and speculation hint that Esme will become pregnant and Nikolas will automatically assume the baby is his after their one night stand. However, paternity is not that cut and dry in the soap world. We know that Esme slept with Spencer the very next night and the probability of the baby being his is just as great as that of Nikolas fathering her baby.
General Hospital spoilers reveal Esme drops a bomb that will rock Nik’s world. Per his prenup with Ava, he is a risk of losing his entire Cassadine fortune. Nikolas is also about to lose a lot more than money. His relationship with his son Spencer and wife Ava is about to go up in flames. The fate of the Cassadine family lies in Esme’s hands.
Esme Prince’s (Avery Kristen Pohl) curiosity about her father, Ryan Chamberlain‘s (Jon Lindstrom) psyche.
Esme questioned Ryan’s twin brother, Kevin Collins (Jon Lindstrom) about Ryan’s detachment to other human beings in what seemed to be of genuine concern; not only for Ryan, but for herself.
General Hospital spoilers reveal things get more difficult for Esme now that she has been barred from seeing Ryan, per Kevin’s orders. General Hospital suggest that the forced distance between Ryan and Esme will allow her to reflect on her concerns.
General Hospital news reports confirm Avery Kristen Pohl has signed a 3 year contract with the daytime drama, leaving over two years left of her role as Esme. GH rumors hint that Esme turns her back on Ryan as a way for the writers to redeem her character.
Recent GH spoilers and rumors hint that the current story is leading up to the reveal of Esme’s mother, and that being said, signs point to Felicia Jones.
It gets interesting where Esme’s biological parents are concerned. Mac Scorpio (John J. York) and Felicia have been reflecting on their experience as parents and the fact that they do not share children together. General Hospital wild speculations claim Esme has nothing to worry about when it comes to inheriting Ryan’s psycho ways because some believe Mac and Felicia will turn out to be Esme’s biological parents! Will Spencer Cassadine (Nicholas Alexander Chavez) and Uncle Victor Cassadine (Charles Shaughnessy) uncover the shocking truth?
Esme Prince (Avery Kristen Pohl) knows how to play everyone in her orbit. She knows just the right things to say and do to successfully manipulate those around her to achieve her ultimate goal. At this point, do we even know what her endgame is?
Daddy dearest is using Esme for his own agenda- coming between Ava (Maura West) and Nikolas Cassadine (Marcus Coloma). They are succeeding thus far, because even though Nikolas and Ava have discussed their love and desire for being together, Nikolas is hiding his betrayal. Not only did he betray Ava with his son Spencer Cassadine’s (Nicholas Alexander Chavez) girlfriend, he violated his prenuptial agreement with Ava. He’s about to lose it all and the future of his fortune lies in Esme’s hands.
General Hospital spoilers reveal Esme ropes Kevin Collins (Jon Lindstrom) in her wild game. Not knowing that Esme is his niece, Kevin gives Esme attention she doesn’t deserve when she seeks out advice from him. She has already managed to pull the wool over Laura Collins’s (Genie Francis) eyes with her fake sob story about her lonely, misguided life. Now she is paving her path to get her hooks into Spencer’s step-grandfather.
GH spoilers suggest that Ryan and Esme’s hidden agenda is about to hit the fan, and Kevin will be blindsided by her brother Ryan yet again.
Anna Devane (Finola Hughes) and Valentin Cassadine’s (James Patrick Stuart) developing romance has been a long time coming- years in the making.
These two went from enemies, frenemies, to friends and one sided infatuation to mutual attraction. General Hospital spoilers reveal Anna and Valentin are just getting started, but his confession could stop things right in its tracks.
General Hospital previews and spoilers indicate Valentin will make a confession to Anna as their first official date gives him the courage to open up.
General Hospital rumors claim that Valentin will confess about what he was doing when he seduced Jennifer Smith (Holly Gagnier) to gain access to her safe, framing her. He did all of this without Anna’s knowledge.
If Valentin confesses, how will Anna take this blow?
It’s been one thing after another for Detective Harrison Chase (Josh Swickard) the last few years. His career at the PCPD has been put on hold.
Chase keeps getting suspended from the PCPD due to circumstances that have been initiated by doing something that is technically wrong but for the greater good. Now, he got himself roped into another dilemma while defending Brook Lynn Quartermaine (Amanda Setton).
General Hospital spoilers reveal Chase is in hot water and his career is now more in jeopardy than it has ever been. Brook Lynn was being disrespected by Linc Brown (Dan Buran) when Chase stepped in to come to her rescue. Now he’s been slapped with an assault charge while already on probation from work.
General Hospital spoilers and rumors suggest that Brook Lynn will blame herself for what’s happening to Chase. She feels guilty that he is under fire on her behalf. Chase has had one misfortune after another and is hitting rock bottom with his career, all because he stood up for what’s right. Linc has been an ongoing problem for Brook Lynn and it looks as though his presence in Port Charles is causing problems for Chase and others in town too.
If Brook Lynn blames herself will Chase reassure her that it’s not her fault or will he start to second guess getting close to her?
Hamilton Finn (Michael Easton) is working hard on Elizabeth Webber’s (Rebecca Herbst) behalf as he does does what’s necessary to comfort her boys and keep things as normal as possible during their mom’s absence.
General Hospital spoilers reveal Finn continues to hold down the fort while Elizabeth is at Shady Brook. Liz’s son, Aiden Spencer (Enzo de Angelis) is having a difficult time adjusting to everything that’s going on, so much so that he’s even concerned about Jake’s inevitable days of college and being left to fend for himself. As much as Elizabeth’s family has suddenly been turned upside down and since the death of Franco Baldwin (Roger Howarth) has impacted them all so deeply, with Finn, there has been hope.
General Hospital fans have been concerned for Elizabeth and her portrayer Rebecca Herbst. Due to the fact that General Hospital news and spoilers had not given any insight on Herbst’s status with the daytime drama, fans began to question her status.
General Hospital rumors started circulating, making claims the actress has left the show. Recent General Hospital news and spoilers reveal Rebecca has taken to Twitter to clear up any rumors about her alleged departure. With lighthearted sarcasm, Rebecca made it as imminently clear that she and Liz are not going anywhere. She used fan’s ridiculous reasons for her absence as her way of explaining. Bottom line, Rebecca is just fine. Fans accused the actress of “having cramps,” or the fact that she has children as the reasons she hasn’t been seen on screen in some time.
Carly Corinthos (Laura Wright) just laid it all out for her ex husband, Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard). She told it like it is, reiterating how things played out after his presumed death and return from Nixon Falls.
General Hospital spoilers reveal Carly can’t reason with sonny about the way he pushed his family aside in support of Nina Reeves (Cynthia Watros), the woman who kept Sonny away from his wife and kids and kept him all to herself. The Sonny Carly once knew and married 5 times is now a stranger.
General Hospital fans speculate that Carly is ready to move on. General Hospital spoilers indicate that after his argument with Carly, Sonny second guesses his recent decisions while Carly looks forward.
General Hospital previews and spoilers suggest that Carly could be ready to move on with Drew Cain (Cameron Mathison). In upcoming GH previews, Drew requests special treatment from his friend and owner of the Metro Court hotel. Will Carly be willing to extend specially privileges?
General Hospital news and spoilers have reported the 59 year old daytime drama has filmed it’s 15,000 episode. Previously the tribute episode was set to air on June 17th, it was then pushed back to June 20th, and now, due to news coverage in GH’s time slot, the celebratory episode will air on June 21st.
When General Hospital fans reflect on their favorite soap opera, they can’t help to think of some key players such as Luke (Tony Geary) and Laura Spencer (Genie Francis), Sonny (Maurice Benard) and Carly Corinthos (Laura Wright), along with Jason Morgan (Steve Burton), Sam McCall (Kelly Monaco), The Quartermaine and Cassadine families, and so many more.
General Hospital news reveals discussions from a recent interview with Daytime Emmy winner and 7 time nominee, Laura Wright as General Hospital’s leading lady, Carly Corinthos.
General Hospital spoilers reveal Cleveland.com has acquired some inside information in Laura Wright’s take on the longevity and legacy of this iconic American soap opera. When asked to explain her take on GH’s impressive longevity, Wright explained, “It’s the fans and their love for the show. We’re really here because of them and their love for the characters, the stories and, gosh, the history.”
As a proud fan myself since the mid 1990’s, I feel honored and appreciated at the credit Laura has bestowed upon the fans.
When it comes to taking the risk, and “going there” regarding bold, realistic, raw, and controversial story lines, Laura feels the risk isn’t a threat [because], “those are stories that should be told. So, I don’t find it risky. I find it current and true to humanity. We’re just telling people’s stories. I don’t know if it’s risky to tell the Alzheimer’s story or the transgender story because we are reflecting people in the world today and I think that’s important.”
Are the days of soap operas numbered?
It’s true that General Hospital is one of only 4 remaining soaps on television, and the only daytime drama left on ABC after the cancellation of All My Children and One Life To Live back in the earlier 2000s. However, Laura has a bright outlook when faced with the question of whether or not she finds the days are numbered for the soap genre. Wright explains, “I think the future of daytime is strong with all the different platforms you can watch the show on. The fans love that they can get us anytime, whether it be on ABC or Hulu.” Thank God for all of that!
Carly Corinthos: Wife, Mother, Strong, Capable, and a true force to be reckoned with, all while loving to her fullest ability!
Laura Wright touches on her feelings for her character Carly, and what it’s like playing this passionate, strong, intense, and loving woman. When named a “force of nature,” Laura agreed. She went on to describe Carly. She said,“First of all, thank you. I agree, she is a force of nature. It’s amazing and exhausting to be Carly depending on the day because I’m also Laura and she has her life. It’s really interesting, the difference between playing in Carly’s world and being in Laura’s world. But it’s super fun and I love doing it. One of our writers explained Carly as the woman that everybody wants to be friends with and I was like, oh my God, I love that. It’s so true.”
General Hospital spoilers and reveal Laura has spilled the tea on what is ahead for Carly this Summer. She admits that many changes are in store for her character, and her developing relationship with Drew Cain (Cameron Mathison) is just the beginning.
Ultimately, Laura tells die hard fans exactly what they want to hear when asked about diving into another 15,000 episodes. She declared, “Hell yeah. Bring it on.”
Here’s to General Hospital’s 15,000 episodes and 15,000+ more!
