It’s safe to say that GH fans can accredit General Hospital’s Executive Producer, Frank Valentini for the bit of 90s nostalgia going on in Port Charles. It’s always nice to see familiar faces return over the years, bringing a sense of tradition and history.
Recently, General Hospital’s latest casting news shakes things up around Port Charles, especially the Quartermaine family. Earlier this year, word of Sofer’s The Bold And The Beautiful departure, fans immediately began to speculate a GH return. Finally, Rena Sofer returned to General Hospital as Lois Cerullo after nearly three decades.
According to Soap Opera Digest, Sofer explains how Lois’s return came to be. The actress then detailed the events that lead to her GH return. Evidently, this has been in the works since 2021. Rena explained that she was still playing Quinn on The Bold And The Beautiful at the time the idea originated.
Upon her GH return, Sofer spilled the tea to Soaps In Depth. “Out of nowhere, Frank reached out to me by text asking if I’d be willing to talk to him,” she continued. “I said, ‘Of course.’ The last time I saw Frank was at Courtney Hope (Sally Spectra, The Young And The Restless) and Chad Duell’s (Michael Corinthos, GH) wedding October 2021); we sat with each other and it was really great to see him.
Is Lois Cerullo Here To Stay?
“He was like, ‘I would love to get you back to GH,’” she continued. “At that time, I was still on The Bold and the Beautiful and I wasn’t even discussing it with him. But with this Eddie Maine story happening, it just really seemed like an absolutely perfect time to have Lois come back for a short amount of time to try to get Eddie to remember that he’s Ned. So Frank reached out to me and asked me if I’d be willing to come back for a short amount of time and I said yes.”
“I’ve played a lot of characters in my career and Lois is probably one of the top three characters I’ve ever played in 37 years of being an actress,” Sofer admitted. “So to be able to go back and do it was unreal.
“It’s just interesting to play her at this age,” she added. “She’s still loud and she’s still mouthy. She was still a lot like me, except with a Brooklyn accent and nails. But also, the story isn’t about me. The story is about Brook Lynn. The story is about Eddie Maine and Ned, so I need to respect that. This is not about me coming back and telling my story; this is about me coming back and supporting the stories that are there with me trying to create the knowledge of who Lois is now, 27 years later. So that is challenging, but also, part of the fun.”
Port Charles feels a little more like when I began watching now that Ned, Eddie, and Lois are together again!

Last month, General Hospital news reports confirmed Rena Sofer’s GH return. The iconic actress got her start on Loving from 1988-1991. Then, in 1993 Rena Sofer landed the role of Lois Cerullo from Bensonhurst, on General Hospital. The role became wildly popular as Lois Cerullo brought strength and sass, and a “don’t mess with me,” vibe.
Previously, GH spoilers and rumors speculated about Sofer’s (potential) return after news reports confirmed her Bold and the Beautiful exit. While a current storyline on General Hospital sends a nostalgic vibe, fans being to reminisce of the 1990s in Port Charles. Today, Ned Quartermaine goes by the name Eddie Maine.

GH recaps recall the slip and fall accident that knocked Ned out and triggered a memory disorder. Now, Ned only wants to be be referred to as Eddie Maine, as he has no recollection of his life as Ned Quartermaine.
General Hospital news and spoilers confirm Rena Sofer’s return to GH as Lois Cerullo. An exclusive sneak peek from TV Line gives a look inside Lois’s Port Charles arrival.
Surprise! GH spoilers reveal that Brook Lynn Quartermaine (Amanda Setton) opens the door to her mother, Lois Cerullo. She came all the way from Bensonhurst because she read an article about how Decpetion fired her daughter Brook Lynn. Now here she is, at the Quartermaine mansion.
An exclusive clip from TV Line shows a brief clip to Tuesday’s episode. On October 10th, Lois learns that Tracy manipulated and blackmailed her daughter into corporate espionage against Deception.
There’s a phrase that I’ve kept close in my head and heart ever since hearing it. The line is written by a singer/songwriter/musician named Dallas Green. “The lonely life of a writer,” is a line from his band, City and Colour. Everything about those five words resonate in a way that non-writers may not normally understand. Evidently, expression through songwriting can be triggering. Just ask Ned. I mean Eddie, er, no, Ned. Man, I don’t know!
Around Port Charles, Brook Lynn (Amanda Setton) navigates through life as chaos finds her at every turn. From her job at Deception, to her relationship with Harrison Chase, BLQ has been busy. Additionally, she deals with her father’s identity crisis after he woke up as Eddie Maine.
General Hospital spoilers and rumors reveal that Eddie Maine has flashbacks as Ned! Recently, BLQ focuses on her career as a music manager. Amidst the daily drama, Brook Lynn stays true to her passion, music. While BLQ and her dad Ned butted heads about ELQ, she and Eddie work collaboratively as members of the music industry.
GH spoilers tease that Eddie’s songwriting process triggers Ned’s memories. But that’s not all. Since Eddie and BLQ double down to finish his song, she just might be there to witness a quick glimpse of her dad, Ned. According to recent GH rumors, Eddie Maine has flashbacks as Ned while he and Brook Lynn try to finish his song. Will he remember what he wanted to tell Drew before he fell?
I am big on music, especially lyrics. As a writer, it’s second nature for me to listen closely and analyze every line, down to each and every lyric. Because what’s created for, or heard in song has a unique way of guiding us through our journey. Have you ever heard a song or a certain part of it and was instantly brought back to a specific place and time in your mind? Well, music has some powerful attributes, including helping people in a coma find their way to consciousness. So why wouldn’t it trigger memories of another life? That is, if you have an alter ego! ????
Eddie Maine gets l@id?! After a couple months of resisting and denying Eddie’s truth, Olivia surrenders. She and her husband have reached an understanding. Finally, the animosity has been put aside for respect and compassion.
Things seem to be going smoothly for Olivia and Ned now that they’ve found common ground. Instead of backward steps, they’ve made some progress. GH recaps recall that Eddie Maine isn’t too keen on Ned Quartermaine’s (Wally Kurth) wife. He even called Olivia (Lisa LoCicero) uptight when talking to Carly Corinthos (Laura Wright). But now that they’ve sort of agreed to respect each others feelings, Olivia doesn’t seem so bad in Eddie’s eyes.
Eddie Maine Gets L@id?!
According to GH spoilers, Olivia won’t give up on husband, no matter who he is. As he and Olivia spend time together, GH rumors tease they grow closer. Now that she have him some breathing room, Eddie can get to know the real Olivia. Currently, the only version he sees is the wound up, naggy woman who wants him to be someone he’s not. But since Olivia has stopped resisting her husbands new identity, GH rumors tease that one thing leads to another and Eddie and Olivia sleep together.
Tracy sends Ned to Ferncliff?! It’s difficult to tell if Ned Ashton Quartermaine (Wally Kurth) genuinely believes he’s his 1990s rockstar persona, Eddie Maine, or if it’s a dirty scheme. As much a possibility it is for this to be all a lie, it’s hard to believe it. Ned had Nina right where he wanted her, and now dropped it cold turkey. Either he has something up his sleeve, or his sleeve rice memory is genuine.
General Hospital recaps recall Ned had discovered that Nina Reeves (Cynthia Watros) was the one who turned Carly Corinthos (Laura Wright) and Drew Cain (Cameron Mathison) into the SEC. And just as he was about to spill the tea, he himself took a nasty spill. As a result, Ned’s memory now only fixated on the 1990s when he was a rockstar. Now, Eddie Maine navigates Ned’s life and Nina gets off scott free.
Meanwhile, his wife Olivia Falconeri (Lisa LoCicero), daughter Brook Lynn (Amanda Setton), his son, little Leo (Easton Rocket), and mother Tracy Quartermaine (Jane Elliot), deal with the fallout. According to GH spoilers and previews Tracy has had enough. She tells Olivia that it’s time to have Ned committed. If Tracy sends Ned to Ferncliff, will Sasha gain an ally? Or will Olivia put a stop to the whole thing?
…Although new to Port Charles, Cody Bell is all too familiar with his childhood bestie’s mom. In fact, Cody and Dante Falconeri (Dominic Zamprogna) go way back. Those two troublemakers take it back to Bensonhurst, where they met and became childhood friends. But back then, Olivia was Mama Falconeri, not Mama Q., as Cody’s named her today.
According to General Hospital spoilers, Olivia continues worry as she watches Leo struggle with the circumstances. Her heart breaks for her son as he tries to make sense of why Eddie looks like his bad, but insists that he isn’t. Thankfully, Cody has been a great friend to Leo. The time spent together in the stables helped develop the bond bet Erb them. Now, Cody and Leo have each other’s backs. That’s why Cody’s offer was an easy decision on Cody’s part.
GH recaps recall that Olivia and a Cody already made arrangements for Cody to move into the main house. As a result, Cody and Olivia move closer as she leans on him for support. GH rumors hint that Olivia falls for Cody when he steps up for her and Leo. Is Ned wasting precious time as he rejects his wife over and over? Will he find Olivia and Cody when it’s too late?
