Dante Falconeri (Dominic Zamprogna) and his father Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard) have a mutual respect for each other’s career choices. Although they’re at opposite sides of the law, they’ve come to an understanding when it comes to family and business.
General Hospital previews indicate that a current situation puts Dante and Sonny’s understanding and respect for one another to the test. In a shocking twist, Dr. Austin Holt (Roger Howarth) was shot dead in cold blood. As a detective Dante must do what it takes to solve the crime, even if that means that he has to question his father.
Who Killed Austin Holt On General Hospital?
A doctor is dead and Dante has reason to believe that Sonny knows a little something about the situation. Of course, Sonny and Ava Jerome (Maura West) know more about Austin than some would guess, but that doesn’t mean they know who killed him. General Hospital spoilers tease that Dante investigates the crime and questions Sonny about Austin’s death. Some GH rumors claim that Cyrus Renault is the obvious choice, but something tells me that’s not the case. It just seems too easy.
Moreover, GH recaps recall the look on Austin’s face when he came face to face with his killer. He was puzzled to see this person but didn’t seem all that afraid. Did Ava lash out after she discovered that Austin’s been lying to her? Or is Nikolas Cassadine creeping around Port Charles with a vengeance?
Let’s be honest, the everyday grind isn’t easy. In fact, most of us fantasize about ways to live without being a slave to money until we die. Although the typical 8-5 workday isn’t the most appealing, the grass isn’t always greener on the other side.
Taylor Swift once said, “Don’t you know that cash ain’t the only price?” Sure, someone you know might have body guards, an endless coffee supply, a private island as a safe-house, or designer clothes, a room at the Metro Court, or all of the above. But what is the price outside of monetary terms for the finer things in life? Often times money can buy frivolous purchases but it’s how the money was earned that sits uncomfortably with some people. Or not. Sadly, some people can sleep like a baby while knowing that they are the reason for someone’s pain and suffering.
On the flip side, others life everyday in constant fear of the enemy. That’s when protecting your own becomes more than your first priority. More importantly, an attempt to fortify your entire family’s world becomes your way of life. Port Charles mob boss Sonny Corinthos is a powerful man. Yet, he continues to find himself at odds with a new enemy.
Is Yuri A Friend Or Foe?
A body guard is a highly trusted, highly skilled professional that is hired to protect another person or group. So far, the Quartermaine’s bodyguard Yuri (Cyrus Hobbi) meets both of those expected attributes. He’s been nothing but kind and helpful to the Q clan, especially Brook Lynn (Amanda Setton). Yuri even called her by a nickname. From the looks of things, Yuri is quite fond of Miss BLQ and the entire Quartermaine family.
The Russian Mob 2008
Despite his big Teddy bear-like assets, Yuri could very well be a plant. No, not the kind that grows upon water and sunlight, but rather a decoy. Apparently, Yuri may not be the all-powerful protector like we all thought. Is Yuri there to carryout his obligation to serve and protect the Quartermaine family? Or is the Russian stationed with ulterior motives? General Hospital recaps highlight the year 2008 and its Russian storyline. Sonny had a new enemy, Karpov.
General Hospital spoilers and rumors, Yuri insinuates himself into Gloria Cerullo’s (Ellen Travolta) predicament with the Russian mob. He doesn’t rent to help Gloria. In reality, this is all part of a grander plan to get to Sonny.
You’re probably wondering how in the Hell Portia Robinson (Brook Kerr) and Nikolas Cassadine (last played by Adam Huss) would ever get together. Well, it’s complicated. It’s no secret that Portia can’t stand the entire Cassadine family, but ill feelings didn’t stop Ava Jerome (Maura West) and Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard) from their random crypt encounter. In fact, something much bigger than themselves resulted from that night.
So, does that mean that someone has to die inorder for Portia and Nikolas to throw themselves at one another? Odds are that won’t be the case. Instead, one thing leads to another upon Nikolas Cassadine’s return. General Hospital spoilers tease that Portia isn’t done meddling in her daughter Trina Robinson’s (Tabyana Ali) love life. Currently, Trina and Spencer Cassadine (Nicholas Alexander Chavez) are at odds over this situation with Esme (Avery Kristen Pohl) and baby Ace (Jay and Joey Clay). Regardless, Trina and Spencer truly love each other. Maybe they’ll work this out, maybe they won’t. But this is for Trina to decide.
Spencer and Trina Spark Nikolas and Portia’s Tawdry Affair
GH spoilers tease that Nikolas’s return triggers Spencer. Nikolas abandoned his son in the past and Spencer can’t see past the selfishness. So when Nik comes home, odds are he won’t receive a warm welcome from his son. But instead Spencer lashes out at his father. Additionally, GH rumors tease that Trina finds out that Portia has even sabotaging her relationship. After all, Trina’s mother is the reason that Esme moved into Laura Spencer’s (Genie Francis) home in the first place. Of course, Portia knew exactly what she was doing when she nudged Esme to move in close to her ex.
Shocking General Hospital spoilers and rumors claim that Trina is so angry with Portia that she shuts her out. Moreover, Spencer follows suit and writes off his own father. These dysfunctional parents both pushed their kids to the limit and now they face the consequences. As it turns out, life gets lonely when your children won’t speak to you. But how lonely will Nikolas and Portia get? Enough so that they lean on each other to cope with mistakes?
Since his memorable role as Todd Manning on ABC’s One Life To Live, Roger Howarth has been an icon and fan-favorite. Despite OLTL’s 2012 cancellation, Roger’s popularity grew. That’s because he landed himself a role on ABC’s longstanding General Hospital. Fast forward to today and we all know the rest.
General Hospital news and spoilers report that Roger Howarth’s GH exit caused quite a stir. So much backlash for TPTB flood social media platforms. No one wanted to see Roger go, and now the GH Executives are receiving backlash for their decision not to renew Roger’s contract.
According to GH news, GH fans petition Roger Howarth’s return. It’s true that there is a change.org petition to get Roger back on General Hospital. Evidently, fans are just as dismayed by losing Austin Holt as they were when Franco Baldwin was suddenly killed. It’s obvious the that common denominator is Roger Howarth. He’s a beloved actor in the Daytime Television community and GH fans aren’t ready or willing to let him go.
Our friends over at the General Hospital Blog Facebook Page have helped us by finding the petition link. Thank You, Judith Sugiura and Nancy Melman for sharing the link in our comments section!
What a surprise! Real ones know exactly how to bring a friend out of a funk, even if it’s temporary. Thanks to Robert, Anna was reminded of all that she’s thankful for. So, is Emma Drake back in Port Charles temporarily to brighten Anna’s Thanksgiving, or is she here to stay?
There’s no doubt that Robert Scorpio (Tristan Rogers) is a true friend. Even more than that he is loyal and authentic. He’s there for Anna in good times and in bad, and he’d never betray her trust. On the other hand, Valentin Cassadine claims to love Anna but doesn’t think twice about compromising her well-being to suit his needs.
General Hospital recaps highlight the recent events that lead to Anna’s less-than holiday spirit. Anna Devane (Finola Hughes) has been down in the dumps after she accidentally shot Charlotte Cassadine (Scarlett Fernandez). Since Anna’s melancholia set in, she planned to spend Thanksgiving alone. Well, Robert couldn’t bear to see the mother of his child sulk in the dark, alone. So instead he took action and did what he could to cheer her up. Now that’s a friend.
General Hospital spoilers and rumors tease that Emma Drake and Cameron Webber (William Lipton) return and get swept away by romance. However, GH news has yet to confirm any rumors that claim Lipton’s returns GH. Additionally, Brooklyn Silzer is back, but the question is how long.
GH spoilers and news reports reveal Brooklyn Silzer’s statement regarding her GH status. Recently, Silzer spoke with Soap Opera Digest regarding her GH return. “My mom told me I was jumping for joy,” She admitted. GH spoilers reveal that Brooklyn Silzer also disclosed the duration of her time at the Daytime Emmy winning drama. “I was so excited to be back and see everyone! I was there for two days, and I was so glad I got to spend a little extra time with some of my favorite people, like [on-screen grandparents] Finola [Hughes, Anna] and Tristan [Rogers, Robert].”
Sadly, it looks like the all grown up Emma Drake was only here to brighten her grandparent’s holiday.
Reportedly, the 17 year old has been applying to nursing school. “I’m pretty busy with school,” Silzer explained. “I’ve been applying for nursing school. That takes up most of my time. I’m taking pretty hard classes this year, but I’m hoping to stay local for college, maybe I can come visit General Hospital more often. That would be really cool.” It’s kind of an ironic career choice she and admits that her time on General Hospital “definitely inspired” her career path. She continued to divulge her reasoning, “ever since I started, I’ve known I wanted to be a nurse, I think since I was six years old. I always said, ‘I want to be a nurse when I grow up,’ and it just stayed with me, and I’ve become more inspired as I’ve been doing volunteer work throughout my high school years.”
General Hospital news and spoilers report that Silzer conformed that she’s all about visiting GH more often. It’s obvious that her experience as Robin and Patrick Scorpio-Drake’s daughter has been a positive light her life, along with her GH family.
Nikolas Cassadine has his share of reasons to stay far, far away from Port Charles. First, his relationship with his son Spencer Cassadine (Nicholas Alexander Chavez) was rocky ever since Nikolas faked his death. It’s understandable that Spencer felt abandoned, and distances himself from his father. Emotionally, the two were further apart than ever. Spencer was back from boarding school and living at Wyndemere, distance separated father and son.
Nikolas had other problems in his life but they all stemmed from the same issue. It was a vicious cycle back when Spencer and Esme both had it out for Nikolas and Ava. As a result, Spencer’s resentment towards his dad and step mom helped fuel Esme’s agenda. Additionally, Spencer unknowingly fed into Esme’s trap which helped lead Ava and Nikolas astray from each other. It was the straw the broke the camel’s back for Spencer.
Nikolas Killed Austin Over Ava?!
Once Esme seduced Nikolas and she became pregnant, time eventually did its job. It was only a matter of time that Spencer found out about how his father Nikolas slept with Esme. At this point Spencer had been betrayed by Nikolas enough. And on top of that, he found out who is girlfriend really was.
Ava Jerome (Maura West) was roped into the middle of it all between Nikolas and Spencer. But Ryan’s fixation on Ava fueled Esme’s entire plot, resulting in Ava’s marriage to Nikolas. According to General Hospital spoilers, Nikolas gets his revenge! The last time that he saw Ava was the night she thought she killed him. Until recently, Ava assumed that he was dead. Thanks to Austin, Ava was able to hide Nikolas’s body, or so she thought. That’s when one thing lead to another and Ava ended up sleeping with Austin. Now, Nikolas wants revenge.
GH spoilers and rumors tease that Nikolas killed Austin for revenge. He knows that Ava thought that she killed him, and the fact that she slept with Austin might be enough motive.
It’s never a dull moment in Port Charles, but excitement at this level should come with a warning! If you think that your family has holiday drama, then you need to take a seat and watch the Quartermaine family do Thanksgiving. As a General Hospital fan it’s just one of those things. If you know you know.
General Hospital Thanksgiving 2023
General Hospital spoilers reveal that Port Charles is right on track with the typical holiday season hijinks. The Quartermaine’s do not disappoint when they come together in celebration of the holiday. Despite the bickering, blackmail, and betrayal, the wild bunch is full of love for one another.
This year, the Q mansion has a little added spice to go around at this year’s Thanksgiving meal. Now that Lois Cerullo (Rena Sofer) is in town, the family has additional added Bensonhurst flare!
Previously, GH Blog shared the latest Thanksgiving spoilers. Robert came through for Anna in a big way! Brooklyn Silzer’s GH return took fans by surprise when Robert presented her to her grandmother. She’s just what Anna needs during this difficult time.
GH spoilers tease that there’s much more where today’s thrills came from! You won’t want to miss a beat when it comes to Thanksgiving in Port Charles!
Anna Devane has seen better days. Based on the nature of her work and her life as a whole, you’d think that Anna has had worse days as well. While that might be since she’s been through so much, there isn’t much worse than having shot a child. Anna’s really going through it and so she falls into a funk.
General Hospital spoilers reveal that Anna deals with the guilt after she shot Valentin Cassadine’s (James Patrick Stuart) daughter Charlotte Cassadine (Scarlett Fernandez). Clearly, the fault lies with Valentin as he neglected to come clean to Anna. GH recaps recall that Valentin knew for a good amount of time that his daughter was behind much of the suspicious attacks against Anna Devane (Finola Hughes). He and his trusted friend Nina Reeves (Cynthia Watros) conspited to conceal Charlotte’s crimes. Sadly, this lead to the tragedy that they now face.
According to General Hospital previews and spoilers, Anna is in a funk. She’s had a lot to deal with and what makes things worse is that she doesn’t even have Valentin to lean on anymore. Instead, she now deals with the reality of his betrayal. Thanksgiving is here and it’s time to celebrate with family and close friends. However, not everyone is up for celebrating. GH spoilers indicate that Robert comes through for Anna to pull her out of her funk. This Thanksgiving, Anna is thankful for friendship despite the hard times she’s going through.
Dr. Austin Holt (Roger Howarth) was doing the right thing after doing a many things wrong. Although Cyrus Renault (Jeff Kober) pulls the strings, Austin still carried out criminal acts on top of the lies he told to Ava Jerome (Maura West). The thing is that Austin wasn’t a bad guy but he did bad things because Cyrus had the upper hand. After all, it was Cyrus who paid Austin’s way through medical school. But was it really worth it when Austin was never able to outrun his debt?
Earlier this week, General Hospital star Roger Howarth confirmed his GH exit and Austin Holt’s unexpected death. General Hospital recaps recall the latest storyline shocker! Dr. Austin Holt took the righteous path and was preparing himself to give Cyrus up to the PCPD in exchange for immunity. After all, he only commutes those crimes and told those lies because Cyrus and Mason (Nathanyael Grey) gave him no choice.
Austin Dies
General Hospital spoilers reveal that Howarth has filmed his final episode. His two and a half year run as the peculiar Dr. Austin Holt from Pautuck is over. But this isn’t the first time that Howarth’s role has been given the axe. The Daytime Emmy Winner is best known for his role as Todd Manning on One Life To Live. Since the Soap Opera’s 2012 cancellation, Howarth has played various Daytime TV roles. In fact, he became known for playing more than a couple characters on the same Soap. First Roger brought OLTL’s Manning to GH. Then, he was written off and he has played two other roles on GH following the Llanview legend. While General Hospital fans mourn Austin’s death and Howarth’s departure, hope remains that he returns as someone entirely new.
“Several weeks ago I got a phone call from somebody I’ve known for a very long time who I love very dearly [GH and OLTL Executive Producer Frank Valentini] telling me that when my contract was up at ABC I would not be offered a new contract and that the character of Austin would be killed, and that this was something they both wanted and needed to do to move story,” the iconic daytime television star revealed to Soap Opera Digest. “And it took me a minute to kind of adjust, to kind of hear the news; it took a second for me to let that settle in.
“And then, immediately, I realized how lucky I was to have been able to do something I really love doing for more than a decade with people who I really enjoyed working with,” Howarth continued. “I’m a lucky guy. I had a great run and this was a decision made by people who make these kinds of decisions for a living. For me, I felt it was very much like that scene in Moneyball and Jonah Hill had just told me I’ve been traded. I feel very respected and supported. For a long time, I’ve enjoyed coming to work, learning lines, and saying them with really cool people.”
Will Roger Return In His Fourth Role?
So much is to be said about a 30+ year acting career. Daytime Television has been luck to have a talent such as Roger. The best is yet to come!
Clearly, there is no bad blood between Howarth, Valentini, and TPTB over at GH. Roger’s statement clarifies any misunderstandings that may have developed through recent GH rumors. Although Roger cleared the air and shared the truth behind his GH exit, one thing remains uncertain. Soaps are known for some wild casting shifts. And it just so happens that Howarth is iconically known for his role change-ups. Three different roles on one drama is impressive but can he match co-star Michael Easton at four?
The General Hospital cast is full of family. Some get along, and some don’t. And some are super loyal, while others plot against each other.
Mostly, mothers and daughters have either a deep bond with unconditional love for one another, or a strong hatred that could go one or both ways. Moreover, some mother-daughter duos like Alexis Davis (Nancy Lee Grahn) and Samantha McCall (Kelly Monaco) had to build their relationship back from below ground level. Similarly, Carly Corinthos and Bobbie Spencer aka Barbara Jean (the late Jackie Zeman), also started off on two wrong feet. However some mother-daughter relationships ew simply beautiful from the beginning. Take Carly and Josslyn Jacks (Eden McCoy) for example. There’s no doubt that those two spitfires are thick as thieves. Well shoot, count Lois Cerullo (Rena Sofer) and Brook Lynn Quartermaine (Amanda Setton) in there too!
General Hospital news and spoilers highlight mommy-daughter relationship that is strong even outside the set of General Hospital. Rebecca Budig and her television daughter’s real life relationship is even close than that they share in screen. In fact, Violet Finn’s (Jophielle Love) on-screen mother left Port Charles and she’s been raised by her dad.
Will Hayden Return For Violet?
Additionally, Violet’s aunt Elizabeth has most definitely played a large role in her niece’s life. But Hayden isn’t the only one that Aunt Elizabeth has gotten closer to. Liz and Finn are officially a couple. While Violet is comfortable around Elizabeth, things will be different while Finn is busy fighting the lawsuit. GH spoilers and rumors tease that now is the perfect time for Hayden to return.
According to GH news and spoilers, Rebecca and Jophielle reunite. Rebecca and her tv daughter spent time together recently, but they weren’t alone. A recent Instagram post displays a highlight moment when Rebecca and Jophielle hung out with a bearded dragon.
