Ned Ashton’s Father Returns to Port Charles!

It has been a long time since the residents of Port Charles have seen this man’s face. It has been confirmed that the father of Ned Ashton (Wally Kurth), Larry Ashton, played by Hugo Napier will be returning to the canvas very soon. Tracy Quartermaine (Jane Elliot) and her son Ned are taken by surprise when Larry returns to PC.

Hugo Napier stepped onto the GH canvas back in 1988. Back then, he was out for treasure and Tracy was the same black mailing money woman she is today. She blackmailed the father of her son to give her and Ned a piece of the pie when he had his hands on the treasure. Unfortunately, things didn’t work out the way Ashton planned and he left town.

In 1991, Larry Ashton returned to Port Charles and work along side Harlan Barrett and Cesar Faison. Needless to say, they were up to no good. Tracy was a pawn in their game of trying to take over ELQ. Paul Hornsby was to marry Tracy in order to gain control of the Quartermaine family company. Fortunately for the Quartermaine’s, their plan was unsuccessful.

General Hospital spoilers reveal that Hugo Napier will be returning to General Hospital to reprise his role as Larry Ashton. As if Tracy didn’t have enough going on in her life right now as she is trying to figure out what is going on with her current husband, or the man she thinks is her husband, Luke (not Luke) Spencer, Larry Ashton decides to stroll on in.

With such ties to Cesar Faison and Harlan Barrett, could Larry Ashton have something to do with fake Luke?

It is uncertain at this time as to when Larry Ashton will make his debut in Port Charles. General Hospital Blog will keep fans updated on Hugo Napier’s status with General Hospital.

Will Luke Save His Daughter Lulu Before Stavros Has His Way?

The Spencer/Cassadine war has been ongoing for decades. The Cassadines have a sick obsession with Luke Spencer (Tony Geary) and his family and just won’t leave them alone. No matter how many times Luke is victorious in bring down a member of the Cassadine Clan, they always seem to resurface.

Last year, when Stavros kidnapped Lulu (Emme Rylan), he had plans for the two to be married and start a family. Well all his plans were foiled when Lulu was rescued by her family. Nothing would stop Luke, Laura (Genie Francis), and Dante (Dominic Zamprogna) from coming to her aid and saving her from the crazed Cassadine. The battle wasn’t easy, and nothing is ever final when it comes to the Cassadines, especially Helena (Constance Towers) and Stavros (Robert Kelker-Kelly). Although they were “killed” a Cassadine never really dies. Stavros’ body was frozen and now brought back to life by Victor Cassadine (Thaao Penghlis). Victor couldn’t do it alone, however. Dr. Robin Scorpio Drake (Kimberly McCullough) was forced to help Victor bring Stavros back from the dead in exchange for being able to help her best friend, Jason Morgan (Steve Burton/Billy Miller) at the same time. Of course Victor didn’t live up to his end of the bargain entirely. He only wanted Jason to be used as their medical miracle guinea pig, and never really expected he would be able to go home to his wife, Sam Morgan (Kelly Monaco) and son Danny.

Luke has been kidnapped, drugged, and help captive at a facility called Miscavige, the place where Heather Webber spent some time in the psych ward. Whoever kidnapped Luke, stole his identity, his face, his life. It has been several months since the real Luke Spencer has been absent from the lives of his loved ones, while the impostor Luke would walk around the town of Port Charles making everyone believe that he was the same old Luke. People are starting to catch on to Luke’s odd behavior. Little Spencer Cassadine (Nicholas Bechtel) already overheard Luke threatening his uncle Sonny (Maurice Benard), Ava Jerome (Maura West) has seen Luke as her ‘boss’ but knows it isn’t really him… Julian (William DeVry) knows that the fake Luke is actually someone he was in the WPP with a while back. After Tracy (Jane Elliot) has been trying to get in touch with Luke over the disappearance of his daughter Lulu, she starts to sniff out the fishy situation. She knows that Luke would never ignore the fact that Lulu was in danger.

Will Luke be rescued or break free on his own in time to save Lulu from Cassadine control? Stavros has BIG plans for Lulu Spencer Falconeri and Luke may be the only one who can save her. Come October, we will know who the fake Luke really is… perhaps he will be revealed just in time, before Stavros does the unthinkable to Lulu.

Stavros Cassadine Has BIG Plans for Lulu Spencer

The look on Lulu’s (Emme Rylan) face when that door swung open was nothing less than a look of terror. Stavros Cassadine (Robert Kelker-Kelly) is completely unhinged and was obsessed with Lulu’s mother, Laura Spencer (Genie Francis) for years. More recently, Stavros became fascinated by Lulu and even went to the lengths of kidnapping her, brainwashing her, in hopes that they would marry. The dynamic duo that is Luke (Tony Geary) and Laura Spencer (Lulu’s parents), along with her husband Dante Falconeri (Dominic Zamprogna), came to her rescue. For some time, Lulu was confused and did not remember being married to Dante. Eventually she came around and was able to overcome the traumatic events that took place when kept prisoner by Stavros Cassadine.

The Spencer/Falconeri clans thought they were rid of Stavros after he was killed in Lulu’s rescue… but of course, a real Cassadine is never really dead. Stavros’ body was frozen and was recently brought back to life by Victor Cassadine (Thaao Penghlis), with the help of Dr. Robin Scorpio (Kimberly McCullough).

Now that Stavros has returned, and he already has Lulu in his grasp, he reveals his big plans that he has for the two of them. Stavros is still sickly infatuated with Lulu. He proclaimed obsession and told her that the two of them will be married and start a family. He must know what has been going on in their lives recently with their struggle to conceive a child. Stavros insulted Dante by calling him impotent, and referred to the fact that he and Lulu are struggling with pregnancy.

How will Stavros try and make Lulu have his child? We all know she would never comply. If Dr. Obrecht (Kathleen Gati) is on Victor’s side, or even if she is forced to help Victor because she has been keeping their son, Nathan (Ryan Paevey) a secret from him, it is possible that Stavros could use one of Dante and Lulu’s embryos. It is almost certain that NO GH FAN wants to see a Stavros and Lulu baby! Robert Kelker-Kelly does a fantastic job of portraying this ultra creepy, completely eccentric, man who is obviously disturbed. The Cassadine/Spencer war lives on with these brilliant actors. Stavros wants his Ice Princess and he may just be able to get it…

Alexis Tries to Forget Julian and Moves On With…

Samantha Morgan’s (Kelly Monaco) parents have recently rekindled their old one-night-stand flame. Alexis (Nancy Lee Grahn) met Julian (William DeVry) one night when she was a teenager away at boarding school. She and Julian met at a bar and ended up sleeping together. This one night stand resulted in a pregnancy that the Cassadine clan wasn’t too proud of. Alexis was forced to give up her baby, and today we know that baby as the beautiful Samantha Morgan.

Julian Jerome is a mob boss and Alexis is a straight laced, mother of three, (Sam, Kristina, and Molly) and a lawyer. Julian had promised her that he left the business so that they could be together. Although his intentions were true, his boss had other plans for him. Julian was forced back into the business by threats from Fake Luke (Tony Geary). After Alexis realized that Julian is still very much involved with organized crime, she broke it off with him .

General Hospital spoilers reveal that Alexis is trying to forget all about Julian Jerome. General Hospital rumors indicate that Alexis will try to move on with her old pal Ned Ashton (Wally Kurth). However, since Olivia Falconeri (Lisa LoCicero) and Ned have gotten a little closer since she and Sonny called it quits, it’s unlikely that Olivia will just sit back and watch Alexis move in on her new love interest.

Who do you think should become a new couple? Should Alexis be with Ned, or should Olivia and Ned see what develops in their love story?

Emme Rylan (Lulu) Talks About Upcoming Involvement in Luke Story

There is a lot going to happen with the residents of Port Charles in the upcoming weeks. Many of the characters have been tied together in connection with this huge story involving Victor Cassadine. Robin, Patrick, Sabrina, Rafe, Nina, Levi, Nathan, Sam, Silas, Maxie, Lulu, Dante have all been directly affected in one way or another by Victor Cassadine. We know that Jason Morgan, Stavros Cassadine, and Helena Cassadine will soon be awake and also involved with Victor. One person that could tie all of this together is Luke, or Fake Luke Spencer.

In recent General Hospital rumors, it has been said that Levi (Peter Harrell Jr.) has another boss besides Victor. Could Fake Luke be behind all that is happening in Port Charles? What leads us to believe that Fake Luke, Fluke, has his part in this entire thing is that actress, Emme Rylan, (Lulu Spencer Falconeri) shares some very insightful information. She says, ” When you see us, we are chained up. And if Dante is with Lulu, he’s not out looking to save her, so it feels pretty hopeless. When I saw the script, I was shocked. I had no idea that this is where it was going. It’s kind of like, Lulu and Dante have been on this track, this baby track, and they’ve kind of been in their own world. Lulu hasn’t really been involved with anything happening with her dad, nothing. They’ve just been in baby bliss. Until now. For them, this is completely out of nowhere. What Lulu has been dealing with is nothing compared to what’s about to happen. This makes everything we have gone through in the last year and a half look like nothing. It is bad.”

It looks as though, according to General Hospital spoilers and Emme Rylan, Lulu and Dante will be heavily involved in a story that includes Lulu’s father, Luke Spencer. We know that Victor has taken her, and Levi has been answering ti him. However, if Emme Rylan states that Lulu and Dante are about to be involved with Luke, this could quite possibly mean that Fluke is behind this enormous operation involving The Cassadines, The Spencers, The Scorpios, The Drakes, Dr. Obrecht, Nathan West, Levi Dunkleman, The Falconeri’s, The Jeromes, The Corinthos Clan, and more.

Tracy Finally Realizes Her Husband is a FAKE

The wool has been pulled over Tracy’s eyes for far too long.  Fans have been asking, “How can she be this clueless?” After years of being close to and intimate with Luke Spencer, it’s pretty strange that Tracy hasn’t noticed that her husband isn’t actually her husband. Fake Luke, aka Fluke has been duping Tracy Quartermaine for months now and it is about time that she come to her senses. We all see what we want to see when in love, and perhaps that is why Tracy turns a blind eye to all the red flags that have been right in front of her regarding Luke’s behaviors.

General Hospital spoilers reveal that the straw that breaks the camels back is when Luke doesn’t even come home when he learns that his daughter Lulu Spencer Falconeri has been kidnapped. Tracy knows how much Luke loves Lulu, and how the real Luke would stop at nothing to bring her home safely.

In a recent Soaps in Depth interview, GH Head Writer, Ron Carlivati states, “Her questions about Luke are growing. Lulu’s missing and where the hell is Luke? He makes excuses, but Tracy is really determined to find him and find out why he’s not there when his family needs him.”

It seems as though Tracy may finally see the light when it comes to Fluke. Hopefully she will start putting all the pieces together. If and when she does, will the other residents of Port Charles believe her? What will it take for everyone to finally realize that Luke isn’t really himself?

We won’t be finding out who the impostor Luke is until Fall, possibly in October when Tony Geary returns from medical leave. In the mean time, Luke’s family and friends can start adding things up and figuring out what is really going on.

Let us know where you think this is headed.

The Fluke/Faison Connection

Cesar Faison. Just hearing (or reading) that name makes me shudder. Faison has been played by actor Anders Hove since 1990. He has been causing trouble for the residents of Port Charles, mainly, Luke Spencer (Tony Geary), Anna DeVane (Finola Hughes), Duke Lavery (Ian Buchanan), and Robert Scorpio (Tristan Rogers) from 1990-1990, then from 1999-200, and more recently in 2012.

Faison left the canvas not too long ago when Anna, Robert, and Duke got their revenge. Dr. Leisl Obrecht suspects that Anna, Robert, and Duke had a hand in the demise of Cesar Faison. Anna has never directly came out to say that Faison is dead. Faison has many ties to the residents of Port Charles now more than ever. Together, Dr. Obrecht and Faison share a child, daughter, Britta Westbourne. She resides in Port Charles and has been on and off involved with Prince Nikolas Cassadine.

Could Faison be Fluke? Rumors have been circulating and focusing on a few individuals who may indeed be the fake Luke. The theory of Jerry Jacks has been addressed, but here is some more food for thought. Faison has always had it out for Luke. He has always despised Mr. Spencer and even abducted his son Lucky under the order of Helena Cassadine. In past years, Faison arranged for Felicia Jones to be abducted in order to distract her husband Frisco. We also know that Faison is responsible for shooting Jason when he fell into the water off Pier 52.

Robin Scorpio, Mac Scorpio, Luke Spencer, Felicia Jones, Helena Cassadine, and more have all been involved with Faison. Since Victor is working on bringing Helena back from her frozen state, she has been rumored to return to GH along with Stavros. If Faison is Fluke, the story has the potential to tie all of these characters together, just like in the past. It would make sense that Robin is involved and has been forced to work under Victor Cassadine’s order. It makes sense that Maxie Jones (daughter of Frisco and Felicia and step-daughter of Mac) was a target in Levi’s plan to steal Felicia’s Aztec jewelry.

With all this connection to the resident of PC coming to light, do you think Cesar Faison is out for revenge in the form of Luke Spencer? Comment below and let us know your thoughts!

General Hospital’s Best Kept Secret

ABC’s General Hospital has had 51 years to keep it’s fans coming back for more. There has been so much drama and suspense throughout the years that lure us to tune in every single day. We feed off the “who done its” and the “cliffhanger Fridays.” We even get frustrated with storylines at times because the mysteries are so intense and we are too impatient (with excitement) to wait and see how it all unfolds.

Throughout the years there have been many stories that have kept us on our toes, kept us guessing, and frustrated us to no end, just to try and figure out who was behind a murder, who is really someone’s baby’s father, who kidnapped someone’s child(ren), who is the masked man, etc.

In recent years, there have been mysteries from the text message killer, to what happened to and who was behind Robin Scorpio Drake’s disappearance, what really happened to Jason Morgan the night he was shot and fell in to water, Who caused Patrick and Sabrina’s accident, Jerry Jacks (aka James Craig) in the Metro Court hostage crisis, and many, many more.

Currently, General Hospital writers are doing an excellent job with the keeping Fake Luke’s identity a mystery. Every single GH message board, GH Facebook group, fan page, blog, twitter, tumblr, and any other form of fan participation in the media is constantly stirring about who Fluke really is. In this age of General Hospital, it is safe to say that Fluke’s true identity has been General Hospital’s best kept secret. Everyone has their educated guess based on characters of the past and storylines that involve villains who hate Sonny, want revenge on Luke, is a pervert, and wants to take over ELQ, It seems that no one is 100% sure on who exactly fits that bill. Suggestions from Damien Smith, to Anthony Zacchara, and Jerry Jacks to Helena Cassadine are filling the fan sites. Everyone has their reasons for theorizing the upcoming plot involving the real Luke Spencer, and his impostor Fluke.

Fans have been waiting months for this story to unfold. Since Tony Geary is out on medical leave after having back surgeries, he will not be back to tape until this coming Fall. Writers and Producers have stated that fans won’t be finding out who the secret mob kingpin really is until at least October. General Hospital Blog would like to know who you think could be behind the biggest mob ring in Port Charles. WHO IS FLUKE, and which storyline (past or present) do YOU think is GH’s best kept secret? Let us know your thoughts and theories by commenting below.

A New Lucky Spencer Could Be on His Way to PC

Lucky Spencer is the son of legendary lovers Lucas Lorenzo (Luke) Spencer (Tony Geary) and the beautiful Laura Spencer (Genie Francis). He is the half brother of Prince Nikolas Cassadine (Tyler Christopher) and the ex-husband of the lovely Elizabeth Webber (Rebecca Herbst), among many other connections in Port Charles.

Lucky left Port Charles after being betrayed and hurt by the love of his life, Elizabeth and his own brother, Nikolas. Liz and Nik were best friends for many years. In more recent years, after being on and off again with Liz’s great love Lucky, and Nikolas losing his true love and Liz’s best friend Emily, Nik and Liz grew to be more than friends. There relationship became romantic and was a steamy love affair. Lucky’s heart belonged to Elizabeth at the time and Liz was torn between the two brothers. When Lucky found out that he had been betrayed by the two people he cared for most, he ultimately ended up leaving town.

Since actor and portrayer of Lucky Spencer, Jonathan Jackson is now on ABC’s hit series, Nashville, it doesn’t look like we will be seeing him reprise his role as Lucky any time soon.

There have been recent rumors circulating regarding Lucky returning to GH and who will be playing him. It seems like General Hospital has been getting a few stars from NBC’s The Young and the Restless, such as Michelle Stafford (Nina Clay) and possibly Billy Miller who has been reported to play the new Jason Morgan this August. The most current news regarding a new Lucky is that Y&R star Michael Muhney will be cast to play General Hospital’s Lucky Spencer. Recently, he and actor Rick Hearts (Ric Lansing) have been quite friendly with their twitter exchanges. There is a possibility that the two have gotten to know one another taping on the set of GH. With Michael Muhney’s recent departure from Y&R, it is likely that this rumor will come true in the near future.

General Hospital Blog will keep fans posted on any concrete news from executives that confirm this casting rumor. In the mean time, hang tight and keep watching GH!

Tony Geary Talks Fluke and Personal Health

Tony Geary recently let fans in on his personal life as well as the life of GH icon Luke Spencer in a fantastic interview with TV Guide. Geary touched on everything from his role(s) on GH to his real life recent health issue.

Although Tony Geary is not permitted to disclose who “Fluke” actually is, he mentioned that he will be back on screen in October after recovering from back surgery he had in April. Tony stated that the recovery was different than he expected and that it took him two weeks just to walk again. A lot of hard work and physical therapy is involved in his recovery which prohibited him from coming back to General Hospital at the time her initially anticipated.

We all know what a great talent Tony Geary is and has been on General Hospital for 36 years. In recent years he explains that he had felt that the writing for his character wasn’t exactly letting his abilities shine, which got him thinking he might want to let go of Luke altogether and leave the show. He says that the Fluke story enables him to go to a dark place in his acting and since Luke Spencer isn’t a sociopath, he has to be someone else. “Doing Fluke has been a real cleansing after all my years of complaining and wondering what happened to Luke’s black hat. To be able to take something this far and this dark has been a real joy after 36 years. Of course, we had to do it with a different character, since Luke is not a sociopath,” Geary stated. It’s obvious that Tony Geary is very happy with Ron Carlivati’s work and grateful for this Fluke story line. In the interview he laughs and says, “That name (Fluke) started on the Internet and now they actually put it in the scripts!”

A lot of time and effort went into this new side of Luke, aka Fluke, and to play him so flawlessly didn’t come without hard work and dedication. Geary took time to research sociopaths and built the persona from there. Everything from slowed speech and differences in the pitch of his voice had to be altered. His personality is quite shocking as well. Geary makes light of the fact that Fluke is such a pervert. It’s nice that the cast members can all find humor in the way this role is written regarding his forward passes at the women of Port Charles. Since Kiki is Flukes main focus in town when it comes to being suave with the ladies, he stated that Kristen Anderson took a little time to get used to playing opposite his character.

It seems as though things are going very well health wise and career wise for Tony. The fact that he didn’t walk away from his 36 year role as Luke is such a blessing to the fans. What would General Hospital be without Lucas Lorenzo Spencer anyways? We are very thankful the writers could come up with a story that could peak Geary’s interest and that is able to show his multifaceted talents. We look forward to seeing more of Fluke Skyping with Tracy, and for Geary’s full time return this October.
