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?

Sam’s Almost-Encounter With Jason!

Just a warning, this article is a spoilers. Typically, spoilers are only posted under General Hospital Blog’s Spoilers and Previews page.

This is an upcoming scene involving Patrick and Sam. Scroll down if you are ready for the spoiler.

 

 

 

 

Sam is convinced that Nina is trying to sabotage her relationship with Silas because she wants her husband back, all to herself. Nina was successful in doing so. After “someone” leaked private information that was between Patrick and Sam, Sam and Silas cannot see eye to eye. Silas is resentful toward Sam for spending so much time with Patrick and for taking his side, and Sam is angry with Silas for believing that Nina isn’t capable of leaking the information to the press, and putting Nina first ever since she came to Port Charles.

Sam thinks she sees her late husband, Jason Morgan, and goes chasing after him. The scene doesn’t involve Billy Miller, the new Jason Morgan. It is actually an actor by the name of Mitchell Fink who is playing an orderly that resembles Jason. However, that orderly is headed towards a room. In the room the orderly apologizes for having to lock the door on his bosses orders. His boss being Victor Cassadine. Behind that door, is Jason Morgan. Sam is oh so close!

If you are excited to see Jason Morgan on General Hospital this August, share this post with your fellow General Hospital fans!

Will Patrick Fall for Sam and Still Keep the Secret About Jason?

Sam and Patrick have been friends for a long time. They have been there for each other through the hard times. Patrick was the one who operated on Jason when his life was hanging in the balance. He saved Jason for Sam and only Sam. At that time, Patrick blamed Jason for the death of Robin, as she was trying to come up with a cure for Jason in the lab when it blew up. Dr. Drake was hesitant to perform surgery on Jason to due the nature of his career. He felt that Jason’s life wasn’t worth saving until Sam stepped in and pleaded with him to save Jason so she wouldn’t be left without a husband.

Sam was there for Patrick when he needed a shoulder to lean on when he was trying to let go of Robin in order to move on with Sabrina. Patrick gave Sam advice when she was unsure about her relationship with Silas. Sam also was in Patrick’s corner when Robin decided to leave him and Emma shortly after finally being reunited with her family. Unknowingly to Sam, Robin is away trying to save Jason’s life and Patrick is keeping the secret from Sam.

Patrick has recently suffered the tragedy of losing his son in a car accident. His good friend and P.I. Sam, has been helping him through it all emotional as well as aiding in the investigation to find out who caused their car to run off the road. Through this journey together, Patrick and Sam have grown much closer. They found out that the car that ran Patrick and Sabrina off the road belonged to Silas, and the one driving the night of the accident was Rafe. Rafe is Silas’ nephew and Sam’s foster son. Sam is even standing by Patrick after the operation on Rafe took a turn for the worse which left her foster son brain dead.

As Sam and Patrick grow closer, they may even fall in love. However, Patrick is keeping a very large secret from Sam. Will Patrick’s guilt keep him from taking a step towards a romantic relationship with Sam? Or will Patrick fall in love with her just as Jason is due to return to Port Charles?

If Sam and Patrick begin a romantic relationship, when it comes out that Patrick has known this whole time that Jason could possibly be brought back to her, it is hard to believe that Sam would ever forgive him. Perhaps Patrick should come clean before they get involved romantically.

The General Hospital and Y&R Saga

It seems as though the General Hospital fans cannot seem to put down the Steve Burton story. It should be simple, right? Steve Burton left his role as Jason Morgan after 21 years because he moved to Tennessee for his family. At this point, we all wish it was that simple. This has been an ongoing saga for months on end now. After leaving General Hospital, it was shockingly announced that Steve Burton was joining the cast of The Young and the Restless as Dylan. Fans were outraged and accused Steve of plotting this with friend Jill Farren Phelps over at Y&R all along. Burton has already made numerous attempts to convince the fans that was not the case but for some reason some of the fans just cannot let it go.Not only is Steve getting grief from his devoted General Hospital fans who have felt abandoned by their favorite daytime actor, he is also receiving some negativity from the Y&R fans. Y&R fans claim that ever since Burton arrived the show revolves around his character Dylan, fans calling it “The Dylan Show.”

In regard to the entire issue with GH and Y&R fans, Steve explained what actually is going on, he said, “Listen, without the fans we don’t have a show. I understand their frustrations and I know that they don’t necessarily like change. I guess maybe my coming to Y&R upsets people because they don’t really know the truth of what happened. What you and I both know — that GH didn’t make a deal with me. And that’s the whole truth. My contract was up and they didn’t want to play ball and make it work. At the time, I didn’t want to throw anyone under the bus over there but of course, as soon as it was announced I was going to Y&R, people thought the whole thing was planned by Jill from Day 1, which it was not. I vividly remember my manager telling me how ABC Business Affairs had called him to say, “Hey, is Steve going to Y&R now that Jill’s over there?” And my manager said, ‘No, he wants to make a deal with you! Quit dragging your feet. Make a deal.’ But they wouldn’t.”

You win some, you lose some, and you can’t please them all. There was more real life drama in the soap world when actress Michelle Stafford left her role as Phyllis on The Young and the Restless and joined General Hospital. Fans over at Y&R are missing their longtime fan favorite of Genoa City just as GH fans are missing Burton. With the arrival of Nina Clay, Silas’ wife in Port Charles, Michelle Stafford hasn’t exactly gotten a warm welcome from General Hospital fans. Maybe Steve Burton is right, and people just don’t like to accept change. But if things don’t “change” at some point, or if fans don’t cling onto that small hope that their favorite actor or actress will be coming back to the roles they are best known for, these stories about Steve Burton and Michelle Stafford just may never be put to rest.

As for now, Steve Burton is happy at Y&R and intends to stay there for the foreseeable future. Stafford is happily playing the role of Nina Clay on General Hospital and has no intention of leaving and reprising her role as Phyllis on The Young and the Restless. The role of Phyllis has already been recast and will now be played by soap vet Gina Tognoni. Rumors are still up in the air on the Jason Morgan recast. It is still rumored that Billy Miller will be playing Jason Morgan, but no new news about a signed contract has been confirmed by executives.

Billy Miller as Jason Morgan; Maybe Not?

Trying to figure out what is going on with the role of Jason Morgan is almost as dramatic as the character Jason Morgan itself. After months and months of rumors regarding a recast for the role of Jason Morgan, a few weeks ago it was confirmed, or so it seems, that The Young and the Restless actor, Billy Miller had left Y&R  due to a recent disagreement with Jill Farren Phelps, and was headed to General Hospital. Billy Miller was said to be replacing Steve Burton’s 21 year stint as Jason Quartermaine (Jason Morgan).

Now things are looking a little uncertain. ABC has not confirmed any contract with Billy Miller. As of now, the actor has not signed a contract with General Hospital. ABC may just be keeping this information private for the time being, but rumors state that Miller will join the GH cast this coming August. Time is running out if a contract indeed still needs to be signed.

Comment below and let us know what you think of replacing Steve Burton as Jason Morgan.

Liz Sees Dead People

 

The newest rumor flying around the General Hospital fan media is that Elizabeth sees the dead… or not so dead. Rumor has it that she is either going crazy to think she is seeing people who have been thought to be dead, or she actually sees these people. Supposedly there will be three.

The question is, who could they be? Some names have been thrown out there and these are just a few the fans came up with… Jason, Ric, AJ. However, if one of them she sees is Jason whom we know is coming back to GH, (Billy Miller), it might make sense that the other two are possible Stavros and Helena. After all, Victor Cassadine needed Robin’s help to bring some Cassadine’s back from there cryogenic state.

If this rumor ends up being true, and Liz is about to see three people she thought were dead, who do you think they would be?  Comment below with your guesses!

Fan Favorite Returning to General Hospital! Check out the Script!

There is a lot going on in Port Charles right now, especially a lot of people coming back from the dead. Wives and husbands surprising their spouses with life after death. Villains are resurfacing and Cassadines are getting unfrozen.

Victor Cassadine is headed back to Port Charles… the one who took Robin away from her family in order to bring Jason back to life. He is frozen along side some Cassadines that Victor wants thawed out. He needed Robin’s help, and since Jason is her best friend, she jumped at the opportunity even though it meant leaving Patrick and Emma behind again.

It looks like Robin (Kimberly McCullough) will be accompanying Victor (Thaao Penghlis) back to Port Charles this time around. Earlier today, actress Kimberly McCullough posted a photo on Instagram of  a script. Her caption reads, “Try to say something bad about soap actors. I dare you. I freaking date you;) this is one day people and only my scenes, not the whole script.”

Donna Mills Headed Back to GH?

She blasted into Port Charles reeking havoc on the residents of Port Charles. Madeline Reeves, Mother-in-law of Silas clay, and sister of Liesl Obrecht turned the lives of her loved ones (or enemies) upside down. She came into town because she wanted Silas to sign over his rights to her daughters finances. Her daughter, Nina Clay was said to be in a 20 year coma. When Silas started to ask questions, Madeline told him that she had past away. Her son, Nathan West, (which we found out was actually her nephew, and son of Dr. Liesl Obrecht, sister of Dr. Britt Westbourne), also was lead to believe that his sister, now cousin, Nina had died.

Nina is far from dead. She is alive and out for her husband Silas. Since encountering her in the park, Silas and Sam have hit a speed bump in their relationship. Nina, Silas’ wife, whom he thought was dead, is now found to be alive, and is driving a wedge between him and his girlfriend, Sam.

Now that Nina is back, and already causing trouble, will her Mother be close behind? Surely Silas will have a lot to say to Madeline, as will Nathan. She made them believe Nina was dead, therefore it’s obvious she has something to hide. What could she be hiding? Fans have speculated that Nina’s child just might be alive. Who will it be? SOme say they have a feeling Kiki is not Ava’s and perhaps Madeline made a deal with Ava to raise Kiki as her own.

Rumors have been circulating that Donna Mills is already taping and is expected to make another appearance in Port Charles as Madeline Reeves very shortly.

Comment and share to let us know if you are looking forward to all the upcoming drama that is in store for Nina, Silas and Sam, Nathan, Britt, and the rest of the gang!

The TRUTH About Why Steve Burton Left General Hospital

The last few weeks have been crazy with the announcement of Billy Miller (ex Y&R star), coming to General Hospital. It has been rumored for months that Miller would replace Steve Burton as the legendary mob enforcer, Jason Morgan.

In a recent interview with TV Guide’s Michael Logan, Steve Burton wanted to set the record straight and let everything know why he left General Hospital. He said that money was definitely an issue, and when it was time for Burton’s contract to be up, executives over at General Hospital were not willing to negotiate. Burton said to Logan, “What you and I both know – that ‘GH’ didn’t make a deal with me. And that’s the truth. My contract was up and they didn’t want to play ball and make it work. At the time, I didn’t want to throw anyone under the bus over there but of course, as soon as it was announced I was going to “Y&R,” people thought the whole thing was planned by Jill on Day 1, which it was not.” Steve Burton stated that he did not necessarily want to leave his 20 year role of Jason Morgan and that GH had the opportunity to bring him back. That being said, he wants fans to know that going to The Young and the Restless was not a set up between himself and Jill Farren Phelps. Burton did what was best for himself and for his family at that time.

Steve Burton is now happy over at The Young and the Restless although sad that things didn’t work out for him over at General Hospital. It has been said that the door is always open for Burton at GH, but for now he will be staying at Y&R as Dylan.
