General Hospital Spoilers: Jake (Jason) Dreams of His Wife, Sam Morgan

Fans are about to lose their minds when it comes to the Jake Doe, Jason and Sam (Kelly Monaco) story line. Die hard JaSam fans just want the reunion sooner rather than later. Sam and Jason have been considered one of Daytime TV’s ultimate super couples. This relationship which is just short of an entire decade has had a huge fan following since the beginning. Every since Jason took Sam in while pregnant with Sonny’s baby, these two were meant to be. They have been there for each other through it all, the good, the bad, the unthinkable. This couple possesses passion, love, selflessness, humor… together they make one bad ass mob team, Jason the enforcer and Sam his leading lady, P.I.

Ever since Steve Burton left General Hospital and Jason Morgan “died,” true Jason and Sam fans have not been completely content with the love interests that were introduced for Sm Morgan. Some jumped on the Silas (Michael Easton) and Sam bandwagon, and there is no doubt that  Patrick (Jason Thompson) and Sam make an adorably hot couple. But the fact remains, that Jason and Sam have YEARS of history, and no other man compares when it comes to being a match for fair Samantha.

Now that Billy Miller has taken on the role of Jason Morgan (Jake Doe for now), fans have been waiting in anticipation for him to regain his memory, stop messing around with Liz (Rebecca Herbst), and realize that Sam and Danny are his family. Ric Lansing (Rick Hearst) just put a huge wrench in things after he hired a con artist, Hayden (Rebecca Budig) to pose as Jake’s long lost wife, in an attempt to get him away from Elizabeth Webber. Thus, setting back the reunion for Jason and Sam even further.

Recent General Hospital spoilers reveal that Jake will have a dream about Sam, which will include flashbacks of their life together. GH rumors have been speculating that these flashbacks will ultimately lead to Jake discovering that Sam is his wife.

Are you ready for Jason to finally remember who he is and who he loves? Leave a comment and let us know if you are excited for Jason and Sam to be a family again with their son, Danny.

52 Years of GH! General Hospital’s Time Warp Episode

You won’t want to miss this year’s General Hospital anniversary episode. April 1st , 2015 marks General Hospital’s 52nd year on the air. The daytime drama aired on April 1st, 1963 and is now more popular than ever. In the last couple of years, the writers and executives over at ABC’s General Hospital have made the anniversary of the show really something special. In 2013, General Hospital celebrated 50 years on the air. Flashbacks and cast come backs have been huge since GH’s 50th with many iconic vet actors coming back to reprise their roles.

Three very special actors have been chosen to carry the weight of this special 52nd anniversary episode. Jason Thompson (Dr. Patrick Drake), Rebecca Herbst (Elizabeth Webber), and Ryan Carnes (Dr. Lucas Jones), will be leading the show with what has been called a time warp epsiode of General Hospital. This trio will be portraying the original characters that debuted in the first ever episode of General Hospital.

Jason Thompson will play the legendary Dr. Steven Hardy (John Beradino), Rebecca Herbst will take on the role of Nurse Jessie Brewer (Emily McLaughlin), while the role of Jessie’s husband, Phil (Roy Thinnes), will be played by Ryan Carnes. These scenes will all be in black and white to display the full effect of the original 1963 GH debut.

The three stars are extremely honored to have been chosen to make this extraordinary tribute come to life. Jason Thomson tells sources, “None of us took it lightly. It was a real honor to pay tribute to the cast that launched our show. Let’s face it: If they hadn’t done their jobs extremely well; if they hadn’t grabbed the attention of the audience right off the bat- none of us would be here today.” Thompson, Herbst, and Carnes studied the original episode in depth, and they are excited for the opportunity. “It was so much fun getting into such a different style of performance.” Everything was very serious and straightforward back then, almost formal but really cool. And no one was overacting.” Rebecca Herbst tells TV Insider.

In the episode, keep watch for the recreation of the original nurses station, with original props, costumes, and more.

It’s safe to say that if you are a fan with a real emotional attachment to this show, whether you have been with it since day one, or have been watching for only a short time, this will really be an amazingly emotional thing to see.

Check out a clip from ABC’s General Hospital in 1963 as the first air time debut on April 1st.

General Hospital Spoilers: Jake Has A Dream

Before Jake Doe was operated on by Dr. Patrick Drake, he had a very revealing memory which let him know who he really is. He tried to mutter out the words to his friend and nurse, Elizabeth Webber, but the anesthesia prevented him from getting out what he needed to say. The entire time Jake was in surgery, Liz was hoping that Jake would be able to tell her, and everyone else his true identity.

Fans along with Jake and everyone who now knows him as Jake, were disappointed when the thought he had before surgery was gone. Even after Patrick performed the operation in hopes to undo what Helena had done, Jake still doesn’t have any memory of his past life.

New General Hospital spoilers indicate that by the end of this week, Jake will have a dream that is more like a memory. His dream will lead him to who he really is, and possibly indicate his relationship with his wife, Sam, his son, Danny, as well as other close friends and family.

Nikolas is well aware of Jake’s true identity and struggles with having to withhold the truth from his cousin Sam, and his friend Liz. Helena has threatened him and is blackmailing him into not telling. But will Jake remember who he is before Nik even has a chance to do the right thing?

What do you think? Is it finally over? Will Jake remember that he is actually Jason Morgan this week on General Hospital? Watch it all unfold weekdays on ABC at 2PM Eastern.

Jake Remembers He is Jason Morgan! Will He Live to Tell the Secret?

Ironically, with the help of Helena Cassadine, it has been proven that she has been controlling Jake Doe with mind conditioning and a microchip. Dr. Patrick Drake confirmed Helena’s claims with a brain scan, finding the microchip hidden deep within Jake’s brain. He is undergoing surgery to finally put an end to what Helena has done.

All of Jason’s leading ladies are right by his side. He has Elizabeth with him in the operating room as Sam and Carly stand by and pray that he survives. At this time, these women are there to support a friend. Liz has been by Jake’s side since he was first brought to GH, she let him into her home and life, and wants the best for him. Sam has felt some strange connections to Jake, as her son Danny mysteriously clung to his side when they first met. Carly also feels a familiar bond with Jake, and she and Sam also want him to pull through to over come the damage Helena has done.

On the operating table, just before he went under, Jake had flashbacks of Helena giving him orders, and explaining that he is in fact the one and only Jason Morgan. He is in the middle of an extremely risky surgery and even Dr. Drake doesn’t know if he will make it out alive.

Will Jake live to tell Helena’s secret and reunite with his wife, family, and friends? Check out GH at 2PM Eastern!

General Hospital Spoiler: Sam Confronts Jake

Port Charles’ John Doe patient, “Jake” has been walking around the city and getting acquainted with people he was once very close with, as Jason Morgan (Billy Miller). Jake had no idea who he really was, and then one day, Helena Cassadine (Constance Towers) strolls along and decided to clue him in on her diabolical plan to control his mind. At that moment, Jake learns that he is Jason Morgan and that he and Liz Webber (Rebecca Herbst) share a son that has passed away, and that he is currently married to Sam Morgan (Kelly Monaco), and has a son, Danny (Corbin and Caden Rothwither). The catch was though, that now Jason doesn’t remember Helena said that at all because of her extreme mind conditioning.

Helena is using Jason’s impeccable skills as a body guard/hit-man to her advantage. She has him controlled, that when she gives him a job to do, he goes out to perform her request, and when he is done, he cannot remember that he engaged in those events. His first task was to distract the PCPD so that she could help Cesar Faison escape from police custody. In order to do that, Jake had to grab Sam and hold her hostage so that Anna, Dante, and Nathan were more focused on saving Sam, than what was going on in the background with Faison. Helena’s plan was successful and Faison was able to go free.

However, Jake may not be so lucky. Sam is a private investigator and has great instincts. In her quest to find the man that helped Faison go free, she realized that the voice of the man was a perfect match to Jake. He also said the exact same thing to her in casual conversation as he did when he was under Helena’s control. He said, “it’s not like I haven’t got all day.” Those words in combination with the sound of his voice rings clear to Sam, but of course, no one really believes her. Especially Elizabeth. Sam approached Liz with her theory and Liz basically told Sam to get lost.

General Hospital previews show that Sam confronts Jason aka Jake regarding the hostage situation. Will she get anywhere with him? Since he doesn’t remember doing it, and he has no idea he is really capable of pulling it off, he will most likely wonder why in the world Sam would accuse him of such a thing. Or perhaps it will jog his memory a bit causing him to have brief flashbacks. How do you think Jason will react to Sam’s accusation?

Billy Miller Discusses His Own Spin on Jason Morgan

General Hospital newcomer, Billy Miller explains his plans for the character of Jason Morgan. Billy Miller had some extremely large shoes to fill by taking on this role after Steve Burton created the Jason Morgan persona for over 20 years. Fans have survived many recasts of their favorite beloved characters throughout the years. The soap industry is known for their ins and outs, and the potential of characters being recast. This is nothing new, yet the news of Steve Burton leaving General Hospital to go to The Young and the Restless hit fans harder than any other recast in General Hospital history. The recast process seemed to take forever, and the powers that be did a fantastic job of throwing everyone off. With the on again off again rumors of Billy Miller replacing Steve Burton, fans were kept in the dark on if and when this big change was going to happen. When the news was finally confirmed, it stirred up all sorts of mixed emotions among the fan bases. Die hard Steve Burton fans were angry, Billy Miller fans were ecstatic that they would be able to see their favorite actor on screen again, and many people just wanted to give Billy a chance and then make a decision on whether or not he could be the new Jason Morgan.

Billy Miller is a hit with the fans. He is living up to the legend of Jason Morgan and his chemistry with Rebecca Herbst (Elizabeth Webber) is undeniable. Obviously, any recast is going to have minor and major differences from the previous actor who played the part. It is important to realize that in these situations, we will never get an exact replica. It’s important to welcome these changes with open arms, and appreciate the work that the actor is doing in order to entertain the fans. Billy Miller discusses the differences he is creating in this new Jason, aka Jake. In a recent interview, Miller said, “It would be ridiculous for me to mimic (the way Burton played him).” Miller states that this new Jason is a bit brighter, he smiles more, and throws in jokes to lighten the mood. He continued to explain, “It’s more fun in this genre whenever you can add some lightness to it or make it funny. You don’t get a lot of room for that so I usually look for it. It’s a scary position for this guy who is so lost and doesn’t know who he is, so you match that with a little bit of humor.”

Billy Miller is looking forward to when Jason finally comes in contact with his past. His past that includes his old lifestyle. His job. Miller looks forward to working with legends such as Maurice Benard (Sonny Corinthos), Roger Howarth (Franco), and Tony Geary (Luke Spencer). In regard to working with Geary, Miller says, “I can’t wait for that acting class.”
