The latest casting buzz following the news of GH Head Writer, Ron Carlivati being let go, is that Michael Easton may be on his way out. Michael Easton joined the cast of General Hospital after One Life to Live was cancelled. Easton went on to continue playing the role of John McBain until ABC had some legal issues with using the names from the axed soap. The GH writers were forced to drop the OLTL names, and wrote Michael Easton as Dr. Silas Clay.
Rumor has it that Michael is on his way out, but nothing has yet been confirmed. Daytime Confidential has also reported of this rumor, apparently, this type of news travels quickly.
It seems as though there has been much potential for Silas. First with Sam (Kelly Monaco), then with Nina (Michelle Stafford), and also with Ava Jerome (Maura West). There is so much that could be done with his character, since he has Kiki (Hayley Erin) as his daughter, Nina as his crazy ex-wife, Ava his ex-mistress and their love/hate relationship. A while back there was a GH rumor going around that Nina didn’t actually lose her baby with Silas, but that Madeline and Ava were in cahoots to take Nina’s baby (Kiki) and pass her off as the product of Ava and Silas’ affair.
Hopefully with the new writing team coming into place, they will be able to find a way to elaborate on Silas’ past and develop his character. Many fans have expressed that a Silas and Ava pairing would be a great idea, especially since there is so much history between those two.
General Hospital Blog will keep fans posted on any new developments related to the status of Michael Easton with General Hospital.
We want to know what you think! Would you like to see Michael Easton stay on GH as Silas Clay?
In today’s tweets, there were some mixed signals flying regarding Nicholas Bechtel’s status with General Hospital. General Hospital Blog would like to clarify that he actor assures his fans that little Spencer Cassadine is “just fine.” Take a look at his most recent tweet, letting fans know that he isn’t going anywhere.
It’s not unlike the soap world to SORAS (Soap Opera Rapid Age Syndrome) the little ones on the show from time to time. We haven’t seen much of the kids of Port Charles lately, including the fan favorite, Spencer Cassadine.
Today, in a comment via Twitter, the actor, Nicolas Bechtel tweeted “When one door closes another one opens.”
It’s uncertain whether or not the young actor was speaking of himself as in working at GH, another aspect of his life, or regarding something else entirely. Some fans have expressed that Nicolas may have tweeted that regarding the recent General Hospital news about Head Writer, Ron Carlivati being replaced.
It seems unlikely that there would be a need to write Spencer Cassadine off the show, or age him drastically enough to have to change the actor who plays the part. We sure hope that Nicolas was referring to another situation, and not his current status with General Hospital.
Let us know what you think. Do you think they are aging Spencer Cassadine and are ready to recast the role?
Check out Nicolas Bechtel’s tweet below!
When one door closes ? another one opens

Rumors have been spreading like wild fire in the last week regarding General Hospital’s Head Writer, Ron Carlivati. The last few weeks, GH ratings have been low, but in the most recent week, ratings again began to rise. It truly is a roller coaster, the way these ratings go out of control. You know what they say, “you can’t please them all.” That’s quite accurate when it comes to General Hospital fans. No matter what is going on on the forefront, there will always be a group of fans who would rather complain and moan and groan, than to support the show that they choose to love. That being said, all the latest talk about the writing on GH brought about rumors that Carlivati was about to be let go.
General Hospital spoilers reveal breaking news, that in fact GH Head Writer, Ron Calivati has been let go and will be replace by two co-headwriters, Shelley Altman and Jean Passanante. According to Soaps in Depth, these changes will take place August 10th, 2015.
Here are some words from the executives: “We are pleased to welcome back two esteemed writers to our GH family,” said Vicki Dummer, Executive VP current series programming, regarding the announcement. “Shelley and Jean’s combined talents and experiences promise to continue the show’s legacy of compelling storytelling that will resonate with our impassioned viewers. We’re delighted with what they have in store for the show as they continue honoring the rich, diverse environs of Port Charles.”
GH social media, including Twitter, Facebook, fan groups, etc., will be buzzing after the confirmation of Carlivati’s exit. Please share this post in hope that we spread the truth, and facts, and less of the rumors and hearsay.
Dancing with the Stars is one of the most talked about and watched show on television. A few of our very own General Hospital stars have made their way to the ballroom, showing fans what they are made of, outside of the set of General Hospital.
Kelly Monaco (Samantha Morgan) was the first every DWTS Champion, and the first of our GH cast members to have competed on the show. Ingo Rademacher (Jasper Jacks/Jax) and Antonio Sabato Jr. (Jagger Cates) also were contestants on ABC’s DWTS.
After posts on Instagram from GH alum, Vanessa Marcil (Brenda Barrett), General Hospital rumors started flying, claiming that she will be on the next season of DWTS. Marcil posted a photo of professional dancer, Maksim Chmerkovskiy with a mystery woman, captioned, “uh oh who’s this?” She also posted a photo of herself and Maksim, together, with her face visible.
Is Vanessa trying to give fans a hint? Will she be the next General Hospital star to hit the ballroom? General Hospital Blog will keep you updated on the status of Vanessa and Dancing with the Stars.
There is a highly likely chance that GH favorite Bradford Anderson is coming back to General Hospital as the tech savvy, good hearted, hilarious, Damian Spinelli. Anderson was most recently on GH as Spinelli when he returned to Port Charles from Portland. Spinelli brought his daughter Georgie for a visit with her mom, Maxie. He was in Port Charles for the duration of the annual Nurses Ball, and stayed with enough time to profess his lvoe for Maxie, all while discovering that Ellie is the one he wants to be with.
General Hospital rumors have been flying that Bradford Anderson will making another appearance in the new future to entangle his character Spinelli in the discovery of Jason Morgan’s identity.
Jason and Spinelli were best friends. Sort of an odd couple, Jason was the tough guy, muscle man, mob enforcer, while Spinelli was his computer wing man. Spinelli did all the investigating for the mob, including computer hacking to get one leg up from their enemies, to recover and sabotage camera footage, etc. These two had a friendship like no other and they truly admired one another. Spinelli still mourns the loss of his BFF Jason. GH rumors claim that Spinelli will come back to Port Charles and aid in the discovery of Jason Morgan. Just as when Spinelli met Jake Doe for the first time, he had an deep rooted feeling that Jake could be Jason. Perhaps on his second return home, Spinelli will get closer to proving his instinct to be right, and uncover the story we have all been waiting for- the BIG Jason Morgan reveal.
What do you think? Will Jason’s BFF uncover the truth? Perhaps with his business partner, Fair Samantha, who also happens to be Jason’s wife, Jackal P.I. may just have a new case!
The revelation of the real Jason Morgan has become so over due that fans are well past the point of waiting patiently. At every turn of events, there is an opportunity for Jake to be revealed as Jason Morgan, yet those opportunities never materialize. More and more people now know that Jake Doe is actually Jason, and soon the secret will unravel.
Port Charles got a huge surprise last week when Elizabeth Webber’s son, Jake turned out to be alive. His adoptive father, Lucky brought him home. Jake had been in Helena’s custody since the accident caused by Luke. While Lucky was in town, he had a heart to heart with his brother Nikolas, which turned into another stepping stone to Jason’s true identity. Nik told Lucky that he and Liz are well aware that Jake is actually Jason. As of now, Lucky has decided not to tell Jake who he really is.
All this time fans have been tossing around ideas and theories of who could discover Jake is Jason. Elizabeth already knows and is keeping him all to herself. Fans have said Sam should figure it out since she is his wife, Sonny because he is his best friend along with Spinelli, Carly, etc. However, now there is someone else in the mix. Little Jake Webber may hold the key to Jake’s true identity. General Hospital spoilers have revealed that when meeting little Jake, Jake Doe had a flashback of playing with cars. Being around Liz’s son jarred a memory. Could little Jake be the one that brings Jake out of his amnesia? It would be quite ironic for Elizabeth, if the resurrection of her son whom she has longed to see again, was actually the demise of her relationship with his father, Jason Morgan.
We want to know what the fans think. How do you think this story will unfold?
Nikolas may have a shred of decency left in him. After seeing Nik tell his brother Lucky the truth about Jason Morgan, maybe there is hope for him yet. What made Nikolas feel compelled to tell Lucky the truth? He told Luyxky that he wanted him to know, that no matter what his decision, the boys were in good hands. Whether or not Lucky stayed in Port Charles, Nikolas was trying to reassure him that Cameron, Aiden, and Jake, would be alright, either with Lucky, or with Jake as he is really Jason Morgan.
Nikolas is trying to rationalize his and Elizabeth’s decision to keep Jake’s identity a secret by using the fact that Sam is now with Patrick, and everyone who loved Jason has moved on. Lucky may not see things the same way. General Hospital spoilers reveal that at the end of Tuesday’s episode, Lucky was shown at Liz’s porch, ready to knock. When he saw Elizabeth, Jake (Jason), and little Jake inside playing happily, he turned away. That doesn’t mean that is the end of it. Lucky could still have a change of heart. Knowing that Jonathan Jackson is returning to Nashville makes fans well aware that Lucky Spencer won’t be sticking around Port Charles. That being said, perhaps Lucky will want Jake to know he is Jason, so that he can take care of little Jake while knowing he is his biological son.
Do you think Lucky will do the right thing and tell the truth about Jake’s true identity, or will he justify keeping the secret as Nik and Liz have?
We only have about two weeks left until Luke Spencer leaves Port Charles forever. Tony Geary and his co-stars have outdone themselves in these moving farewell scenes for Luke.
Jonathan Jackson (Lucky), Nathan Parsons (Ethan), Rebecca Herbst (Elizabeth), and Constance Towers (Helena), have been absolutely amazing thus far.
There is more to come in these emotion-filled, next two weeks! Which scenes have been your favorite thus far? Who tugged at your heart strings the most?
It all makes perfect sense really. It was nothing the General Hospital writing team had planned on doing, but to them, and now to the fans, it completely makes sense in regard to Luke Spencer’s (Tony Geary) exit story. However, the lasting impact on resurrecting Elizabeth Webber (Rebecca Herbst) and Jason Morgan’s (Billy Miler) son, Jake, will have a lasting impact on the people of Port Charles as a whole.
In an interview with Soap Opera Digest, General Hospital Head Writer, Ron Carlivati explains why they decided to bring little Jake back from the dead. He said, “It really was not something we were planning to do.”
Luke Spencer’s exist story had to be one for the books. Since Luke was the one who actually hit little Jake and caused his “death,” the writing team felt this was the perfect way to make Luke and Laura’s (Genie Francis) adventure to be as memorable as possible, while also leaving a great story for the rest of the town, even after Luke leaves the canvas.With all that is going on with Sam and Jason, Elizabeth and Jason (Jake), and Liz and Nikolas, having Jake be alive will stir the pot for many story lines.
For all the fans that have questioned little Jake’s organ donation, Carlivati explains, “We had to pull out a bag of tricks, and go to our go-to person, Helena Cassadine, for help, and made it work.”
So what does this mean for Elizabeth and Jake Doe? Sam and Jake (Jason)?…
Elizabeth is still hiding Jake’s true identity from him. Knowing that he is actually Jason Morgan, Liz is depriving the man she claims to love of his real wife, Sam (Kelly Monaco), and his son, Danny Morgan. General Hospital rumors speculated that Lucky Spencer (Jonathan Jackson), little Jake’s adoptive father, is on his way to inform Elizabeth of the news regarding their son. Once Liz finds out that Jake, her son with Jason is actually alive, will she finally tell Jake Doe that he is actually Jason? We think so. Judging from Liz’s past behaviors, it isn’t enough right now that Jason has a wife and son out there, but once she finds out THEIR son is alive, her whole tune is likely to change. In our opinion, we predict that Elizabeth will want the real Jason Morgan to get to know their son, little Jake and will ponder her decision to finally come clean, now that she too has a family again with Jason.
We want to know where you think this story will lead. Share this post and comment with your thoughts and theories.

The latest casting buzz following the news of GH Head Writer, Ron Carlivati being let go, is that Michael Easton may be on his way out. Michael Easton joined the cast of General Hospital after One Life to Live was cancelled. Easton went on to continue playing the role of John McBain until ABC had some legal issues with using the names from the axed soap. The GH writers were forced to drop the OLTL names, and wrote Michael Easton as Dr. Silas Clay.
