Mac Scorpio could hush the loudest of critics with his simple presence. As it turns out, his portrayer, John J. York has the same superpower. Despite all the shade that’s often thrown at characters, actors, writers, etc., York and Scorpio remain among the fan favorites. Truthfully, I’ve yet to hear or read a negative comment from GH fans about Mac or the man who plays him, John J. York.

Back in September, York announced that he was going on hiatus from ABC’s General Hospital. Since then he’s revealed his health diagnosis, and an explanation for his hiatus. Sadly, John J. York’s health diagnosis and treatment required him to take a step back from his role as Mac Scorpio on General Hospital. Fast forward about six months, with some updates in between (see article below), GH news reports confirm that York is ready for his first public appearance.

General Hospital spoilers reveal that York reached out to fans via X (formerly known as Twitter), to make a special announcement. Reportedly, John J. York revealed that he’s making his first public appearance since his cancer treatment. The post informs GH fans of an upcoming event. York and his costar leading lady Kristina Wagner reunite for a GH Fan event via zoom. The event takes place on July 14th, and instructions to purchase tickets can be found in York’s X post below.

We surely hope that this means that the beloved General Hospital Vet’s recovery is heading in the right direction. we continue to keep John J. York in our thoughts and prayers, and we cannot wait to see Mac on screen again!

Agent John Jagger Cates (Adam Harrington) popped back into Port Charles out of the clear blue sky. One minute John “Brennan” was sniffing around Bobbie’s (formerly known as Kelly’s), then the next he whipped out his FBI badge and began flashing is all over PC.

Previously, General Hospital news reports confirmed that Adam Harrington joined GH’s cast as a past character. He took over the role as Jagger from Antonio Sabato Jr. The change caused a stir among General Hospital fans, and they took their concerns to social media.

Does Agent Cates Have a Vendetta Against Jason?

So, why did General Hospital decide to bring back Jagger, aka, Agent John Cates? According to recent GH spoilers and rumors, Jagger is the string that ties some PC people together. Some find it interesting that Jagger returned around the same time as Jason, also while Dex Heller’s (Evan Hofer) is in question. When he first arrived in Port Charles, Dex’s family background was a mystery. Then, he revealed that he didn’t get along with his brothers, and his home life was pretty rocky. That’s when rumors really began to take flight. Suddenly, GH rumors claimed that Dex was adopted. And his biological parents are none other than Jason Morgan (Quartermaine) and Karen Wexler.

What do you think? John is displaying red flags when it comes to Jason. Agent Cates’s personal vendetta against Jason Morgan could very well be because of Karen… and Dex!

On December 18th, 2020, Sonny and Carly’s relationship changed forever. That’s when he and Julian fell off a bridge. Although Julian Jerome was confirmed dead, Sonny Corinthos’s body was never found. He was presumed dead and his family had to go on without him.

According to General Hospital spoilers and rumors, Sonny and Carly’s failing external relationships aren’t direct indicators for a CarSon reunion. Despite the fact that Sonny filed for divorce and Drew is breaking up with Carly, the mobster and the former hotel owner may not make their way back to each other just yet.

Sonny and Ava’s bond has grown stronger over the last few months. Like two peas in a pod, Ava Jerome and Sonny Corinthos have mobster blood running through their veins. Sonny is under a lot of pressure and there’s little hope for his marriage to Nina Reeves (Cynthia Watros). Furthermore, Jason Morgan’s return has driven a wedge between Carly Spencer (Laura Wright) and Drew Cain (Cameron Mathison). Carly’s feelings for Jason are so immense that she can’t even describe them with words. Sadly, Drew came to a realization that Carly will never love him as much as she loves Jason. Not even as much as she loves Sonny. So, where does that leave any hope for a CarSon reunion?

Laura Wright is no rookie. In fact, she’s been in the buzz for quite some time. The Emmy winning actress started off on a Soap Opera called Loving in 1991. Today, Laura’s been in the game for 30 years, and counting.

General Hospital star Laura Wright joined the legendary cast in 2005. She had big shoes to fill, and sometimes GH fans tend to express their opinions with vehemence. It’s not easy for recasts as they have to live up to a certain standard. According to past GH comings and goings news, Wright was the fourth actress to take on the role of Carly Corinthos.

First, Sarah Joy Brown originated the role and it was unimaginable to think of anyone else playing Carly. Then, Tamara Braun came along and GH fans were captivated by her raw emotions while portraying Carly. Sadly, Braun left General Hospital as well. Finally, Jennifer Bransford briefly stepped into the role before Wright took over in ‘05.

Reportedly, Laura has played Carly for nearly 19 of her 30 plus years in daytime television. Furthermore, shes worked alongside Mathison for about two years, according to recent GH news reports, Laura Wright reveals that Carly and Drew’s breakup scenes are her favorite scenes between herself and Mathison. Wright tells Soap Opera Digest, “I think they are the best scenes I’ve ever had with Cameron, ” Laura Wright confessed. “It’s some of the best work I’ve ever seen him do. He was so beautiful and raw.”

Stay tuned to see how Drew and Carly’s relationship unravels.

General Hospital Spoilers: Drew Can’t Compete With Jason- His Insecurities Get In The Way

Drew Cain (Cameron Mathison) is tired of taking the back seat. Since his return from Pentonville, Drew is a different person. As expected, his new lease on life has been a shock to those who are closest to him, including Carly.

However, the adverse impact of Drew’s harder personality doesn’t end with Carly being the only recipient of his wrath. In fact, the mother of his daughter Scout was the first to notice the change within Drew.

According to General Hospital spoilers and previews, Jason’s return has a devastating impact on Drew. The old Drew may have taken a few steps back and allowed Carly to take time to figure things out in regard to Jason. But this new Drew doesn’t have the patience for all of that. Instead, he’s got a no-nonsense attitude about Jason’s return and he’s not afraid to tell Carly how he sees it.

Drew Can’t Compete With Jason

GH spoilers tease that Carly and Drew can’t see eye to eye on this, which leads to irreconcilable misunderstandings about Jason. Previously, General Hospital news reports confirmed that Laura Wright spilled the tea on Carly and Jason.

Wright admitted that Carly stands by Jason no matter what, and adds that some problem can’t handle that. Recent GH spoilers and rumors hint that Drew definitely can’t handle Carly’s loyalty to Jason. At this point it looks like Carly and Drew are over for good.

General Hospital Spoilers: Ava Denies Her Feelings Until She Just Can’t Take It Anymore- Ava and Sonny Give In To Temptation

The past is the past but sometimes history repeats itself. Although Ava Jerome (Maura West) and Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard) have never bonded quite like this, they’ve been down a similar road.

For the most part Sonny and Ava have been civil co-parents at best. General recaps recall that Sonny and Ava’s life long connection began after one night of bizarre passion. Sonny’s son Morgan had died and Ava had a hand in his tragic death. She switched Morgan’s (Bryan Craig) medication which led to the events that took his life. So why on Earth Sonny would sleep with her can be chalked up to soap opera logic. On top of it all (or bottom, whichever they prefer 😜), Ava and Sonny conceived their daughter Avery that night. Now, they’re family for life.

General Hospital spoilers tease that the two mobsters have become closer over the last few months as Sonny Corinthos deals with a threat. Since Ava is the mother of one of his children, she was first sought out by the enemy. They wanted information on Sonny, but when their daughter’s safety was threatened, Ava knew that she had to tell Sonny what’s going on.

According to General Hospital spoilers and rumors, Sonny and Ava’s status might slip into a new phase. Will Ava and Sonny give in to temptation?

General Hospital Spoilers: Jason Morgan Works Undercover- He Has Good Reason For What He’s Doing

General Hospital fans and Port Charles residents alike cannot figure out why Jason would go against Sonny. Stone Cold is seemingly against Sonny. From the looks of things, Jason’s prepared to hurt Sonny when given the chance.

Things aren’t always as they seem since clues indicate that Jason doesn’t want to hurt Sonny- or anyone else from his past. Instead, General Hospital spoilers and rumors suggest that Jason’s (Steve Burton) protecting Sonny. Everyone knows that Jason’s highly skilled at what he does. The man doesn’t miss a shot. According to General Hospital recaps, the attack at the island was one of the first clues that Jason is the “shooter.” Like Ava said, Jason knows Sonny’s organization inside and out. Including the layout of the island.

Jason Works For The Enemy…

Since no one can figure out why Jason would ever go against Sonny, let alone shoot at him, perhaps it’s because she’s pretending? GH rumors hint that Jason Morgan works undercover to protect Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard). Is it possible that Jason is working with one of Sonny’s enemies, but only to oversee the operation, and to ensure Sonny’s safety? We all know that Jason would never hurt his best friend, they’re like family.

As much as Carly Corinthos (Laura Wright) couldn’t believe her eyes, she knew that her best friend was standing right in front of her. Jason Morgan (Steve Burton) and Carly stood face to face as he assured her she can trust what she sees.

General Hospital recaps highlight March 8th’s intense episode with Jason, Carly, Jagger (Adam Harrington), and Anna Devane (Finola Hughes). Just as Jason and Carly were starting to get comfortable, they were interrupted by a knock on the door. As suspected, it was Jagger and Anna, and they were looking for Jason.

Moreover, General Hospital spoilers tease that law enforcement knew exactly where to look for the undead mobster. Without a doubt, anyone who knows Jason knows how close he is to Carly. That was definitely not a smart move by Jason because he should have known that they’d look there.

According to General Hospital spoilers and rumors, Carly panics as Anna and Jagger search her home. A photo of Jason having his mugshot taken has been floating around online for a least a few days. It looks like Carly is stressing over the search warrant and there’s nothing she can do. Sooner or later they’re bound to find Jason.

Steve Burton’s return has been nothing short of incredible for the majority of General Hospital fans. Based on GH fan reactions across social media, Steve Burton’s return debut continues to receive raving reviews.

Today, GH Blog also has growing TikTok, Pinterest, and YouTube profiles. Thanks to the dedicated General Hospital fans and GH Blog supporters, we’ve gratefully been sharing our GH content for 13 years.

Over the past 13 years we’ve had the pleasure of engaging with fellow General Hospital fans on a daily basis. That said, GH fans express their ideas, thoughts, and options on all things GH. Yesterday, Steve Burton received the warmest of welcomes when he debuted as Jason Morgan. According to GH news, Burton was hired to play Jason Quartermaine in 1991. Fans were drawn to his portrayal of the preppy- rich-kid-turned mob enforcer. Unfortunately, Burton left GH in 2012, but returned in 2017. Then, he was let go from the soap opera in 2021 due to a covid vaccine mandate. Needless to say its been one big roller coaster for GH fans.

Steve Burton Reveals How Jason Morgan’s Storyline Changed Course

Thankfully, prayers were answered when his surprise return was announced. Fans immediately began to speculate about how Jason would be reintroduced to the canvas. According to the latest GH news and spoilers, Burton revealed the decision for Steve to return came before the recent writer switch. As a result, Jason’s storyline took a different direction.

GH spoilers reveal that Burton opened up to Soap Opera Digest about his storyline. “So apparently there was a whole different story planned and then the head writer switch happened and then they kind of rebooted (the story arc). I know Patrick (Mulcahey, one of the new head writers) a little bit, but I really know Elizabeth Korte (who was promoted to co-head writer).” Burton disclosed to the news outlet.

“There’s no one in the building that loves that show, knows the history of the character, and is invested in it 100 percent than Elizabeth. There has never been a more deserved promotion, ever. Once I know that she was (one of the head writers), I was like, ‘Oh, this is gonna be good! I cannot wait.’ And it has been exactly that. Everything has been amazing.”

It sounds like Steve is just as excited about his comeback as the rest of us! His faith in the new writing team gives hope for an exciting future at General Hospital.
