General Hospital’s Jason Shocker! Is He IN or is He OUT?

It seems like the executives over at ABC’s General Hospital have been going back and forth on whether or not the iconic role of Jason Morgan would be recast after the departure of Steve Burton. Steve Burton played Jason Quartermaine (later Jason Morgan) for 21 years. After leaving General Hospital due to conflicts of interests with General Hospital executives, Burton soon after joined the cast of  CBS The Young and the Restless as Dylan McAvoy. He has signed a 2 year contract with Y&R, therefore, has no intention of going back to General Hospital in that time.

Just because GH doesn’t have Steve Burton, doesn’t mean they can’t have the character, Jason Morgan. We have seen it done many times through General Hospital’s 51 years of existence, Amazing actors and fan favorites have been forced to be recast all the time. Edward Quartermaine, Carly Corinthos Jacks, AJ Quartermaine, Lulu Spencer, Nikolas Cassadine, Helena Cassadine, just to name a few. What makes Steve Burton any different? Although Steve Burton made the character of Jason Morgan who we all know and love today, there comes a time where the show must go on.

We have been hearing for many months now that the role of Jason Morgan would be recast, and the actor to play that role would be Billy Miller from The Young and the Restless. However, nothing has been confirmed or denied. Many credible sources have admitted seeing Miller around LA with GH cast members. When Miller was asked the direct question if he has joined the cast of GH to play Jason Morgan he danced around the question.

Due to many rumors circulating the media, fans were expecting to see Jason return to GH (in the form of Billy Miller), this August 7th-8th. After today’s SHOCKING episode of General Hospital fans are left with more uncertainty and confusion about this subject than ever before. Robin telling Patrick “Jason is dead,” is not exactly what fans expected to hear just one day before Billy Miller has been said to make his debut. It looks like Robin is willing to push Patrick over the edge just to be able to save him from Victor’s wrath. Robin denied that she is being threatened and being held captive. She assured Patrick that she is there because she wants to be even though Jason is dead. She is claiming that her research and work will be of the greater good and that she is helping terminally ill people in the future. What happens next? Is Robin lying to Patrick in order to protect her family?

The Return of Jason Morgan

There is one topic on General Hospital as of lately that just cannot be put down. Fans across the board can’t seem to come to terms with the fact that Steve Burton is gone from General Hospital and is not returning for the forseeable future. Steve Burton has signed a 2 year contract with CBS The Young and the Restless, as Dylan McAvoy. He is happy there, and has no intention of coming back to General Hospital as of now.

But what about all the hype that Jason Morgan will be returning to GH? As we know, Jason Morgan is presumed dead, Sam a widow, and Danny is left without a Father. All of a sudden, Victor Cassadine comes traipsing into Port Charles, pressuring Dr. Robin Scorpio to come away with him. He knows she would do anything for her best friend Jason, so he informs Robin that Jason is alive, and just needs some medical help to wake him up. So, now the fans are well aware that Jason Morgan is supposed to be alive. For months now, the media has gone back and forth on whether or not the role of Jason Morgan would be recast. Things finally seemed to settle on one particular rumor. The rumor that Billy Miller, (ex-Billy Abbott Y&R), will be taking over the role of Jason Morgan has seem to sit well with most fans. There are indeed still some fans that want Steve Burton or no Jason at all. If these rumors are true, we may be seeing Jason Morgan resurface as early as the first to second week in August. Sam and Patrick are investigating Nina Clay at Crichton-Clark medical clinic where Patrick runs into his wife Robin. Knowing that Robin is working on bringing Jason back to life, Patrick is aware that his best friend’s husband is most likely in the near vicinity. Even now, Patrick keeps quiet regarding what he knows about Jason, leaving his pal Sam in the dark about her husband.

Will these rumors regarding Billy Miller taking on the role of Jason Morgan come true? Officials have not yet confirmed this news, and no concrete validation of a signed contract has been revealed to the general public. However, many actors have hinted toward the mews that Miller has joined the cast of General Hospital.

Look for a possible Jason Morgan sighting this week on General Hospital!

Some Familiar Faces Headed to Port Charles

The residents of Port Charles are always engaged in some sort of life altering drama that involves, lies, deceit, murder, baby drama, and rising from the dead.

This week on General Hospital Patrick runs into his wife Dr. Robin Scopio Drake (who was once thought to be dead) while helping his good friend Sam, investigate her boyfriend Silas’ wife, Nina Clay. Wow, that was a mouthful. All the while, it has been rumored that Sam’s presumed dead husband, Jason Morgan, is also in that very clinic (Crichton-Clark) that she and Patrick are in, searching for dirt on Nina Clay. Sam is convinced that she isn’t as helpful as she presents her self to be, and that she may indeed be able to walk.

Along with Robin, it has been rumored we will be seeing another familiar face. The man that brought the brilliant doctor Robin with him to save Jason’s life, Victor Cassadine. Of course to save Jason’s life there was a catch… she also was obligated to resurrect a few Cassadines. Has Robin succeeded in saving Jason’s life? Sam may just come face to face with her husband. Who do you think will be coming back from a cryogenic state? Helena, possibly Stavros?

What familiar faces of past PC residents and the un-dead are you hoping to see in the upcoming weeks?

General Hospital’s Best Kept Secret

ABC’s General Hospital has had 51 years to keep it’s fans coming back for more. There has been so much drama and suspense throughout the years that lure us to tune in every single day. We feed off the “who done its” and the “cliffhanger Fridays.” We even get frustrated with storylines at times because the mysteries are so intense and we are too impatient (with excitement) to wait and see how it all unfolds.

Throughout the years there have been many stories that have kept us on our toes, kept us guessing, and frustrated us to no end, just to try and figure out who was behind a murder, who is really someone’s baby’s father, who kidnapped someone’s child(ren), who is the masked man, etc.

In recent years, there have been mysteries from the text message killer, to what happened to and who was behind Robin Scorpio Drake’s disappearance, what really happened to Jason Morgan the night he was shot and fell in to water, Who caused Patrick and Sabrina’s accident, Jerry Jacks (aka James Craig) in the Metro Court hostage crisis, and many, many more.

Currently, General Hospital writers are doing an excellent job with the keeping Fake Luke’s identity a mystery. Every single GH message board, GH Facebook group, fan page, blog, twitter, tumblr, and any other form of fan participation in the media is constantly stirring about who Fluke really is. In this age of General Hospital, it is safe to say that Fluke’s true identity has been General Hospital’s best kept secret. Everyone has their educated guess based on characters of the past and storylines that involve villains who hate Sonny, want revenge on Luke, is a pervert, and wants to take over ELQ, It seems that no one is 100% sure on who exactly fits that bill. Suggestions from Damien Smith, to Anthony Zacchara, and Jerry Jacks to Helena Cassadine are filling the fan sites. Everyone has their reasons for theorizing the upcoming plot involving the real Luke Spencer, and his impostor Fluke.

Fans have been waiting months for this story to unfold. Since Tony Geary is out on medical leave after having back surgeries, he will not be back to tape until this coming Fall. Writers and Producers have stated that fans won’t be finding out who the secret mob kingpin really is until at least October. General Hospital Blog would like to know who you think could be behind the biggest mob ring in Port Charles. WHO IS FLUKE, and which storyline (past or present) do YOU think is GH’s best kept secret? Let us know your thoughts and theories by commenting below.

In the July 30th episode of Comedy Central’s The Colbert Report, James Franco was Stephen Colbert’s guest star. In the interview, Stephen and James discussed his new film Child of God, his degree in English that will give James a new title (Dr.), and much more.

When mentioning Franco’s upcoming accomplishment in education, Colbert jokingly asked him if he would be going back to General Hospital. Get it? A Doctorate degree? Haha. Well James clarifies that he will be receiving this degree in English, but… Are you ready for James Franco’s answer to Stephen Colbert’s question?

James said, “I would be a doctor of English, but I still might go back to General Hospital.”

I don’t know about you all, but this news is extremely exciting to me. James Franco was an amazing talent on General Hospital and it was such an honor for him to play on our beloved favorite soap. James is a man of many talents including acting, painting, directing, and teaching young minds as a professor at UCLA. What he brought to the table at General Hospital was pure, raw, talent which displayed a tremendous amount of mystery, drama, and excitement. As a fan og GH and James Franco, I feel we the fans would be blessed to be graced with his presence on our show again.

SHARE this post if you want James Franco to return to General Hospital.
