Many of you have been posting comments to our item on the new shortened General Hospital opening title sequence that first aired on Monday’s episode. Now today on Tuesday’s episode, a different array of characters and performers appear in the line-up with a different theme. And as we explained, we are hearing there will several new cast configurations seen over the next several days.
The music bed theme we are hearing today sounds exactly like the opening sequence theme from GH’s primetime spinoff GH: Night Shift! We think it’s part of the same music theme.
So how do you like this version’s music and the rotating cast? Let us know after watching the video clip after the jump, if you are thumbs up or thumbs down on this one!

Jon Lindstrom and Cady McClain Announce They Have Ended Their Marriage
After much speculation, General Hospital’s Jon Lindstrom (Kevin) and Cady McClain (ex-Jennifer, DAYS, ex-Rosanna, ATWT, ex-Dixie, AMC et al) have officially confirmed and announced they have gone their separate ways and have ended their marriage.
For months on social media, it was clear that the two were seemingly apart, not appearing pictured in any of each others posts.
Now, on a mutually shared Instagram post, Jon and Cady made an official statement on the status of their relationship, beginning with “Cady and Jon here. We are taking this opportunity to make a short statement about our relationship status. It may be obvious to some based on our posts that we’ve taken some time apart. After serious consideration we have decided that our goals have been taking us in different directions and to end our marriage.”

As to the future, Jon and Cady explained, “We remain friends and wish each other every happiness. As people who work in the public eye, it can be difficult to have a private life. Regardless, we ask for your kind consideration in this matter.”
Jon and Cady met when they both appeared on As the World Turns, he as Craig Montgomery, and she as Rosanna Cabot. After four years together, the couple decided to get married in 2014.

In story, Ava (Maura West) comes to visit her ex in the slammer. So, just what does Ava want now? She clearly has been working an agenda on Sonny (Maurice Benard). Is she working with Valentin (James Patrick Stuart)? What will she tell Nikiolas? stay tuned.
Meanwhile, once news of Huss’ return broke earlier on Friday via Soap Opera Digest, he also announced his return on his Instagram expressing, “For all those who’ve been asking, cat’s out of the bag;) Thank you to all my #Nikolas #GH fans for your unwavering support. I don’t take it for granted for a second! (Even when I can’t answer 😊) #generalhospital”

Huss took over the role of Nikolas back in January of 2023, after Marcus Coloma left the soap opera. Previous to that, Huss filed in for Coloma in September of 2021 and November of 2022. Fast-forward to January of 2024, Nikolas gave Ace to Laura and Kevin to raise, while he eventually turned himself into the police for kidnapping Esme and keeping her hostage while she was pregnant and Wyndemere.

The return of Huss comes on the heels of multiple reports that his on-screen son, Nicholas Chavez is not returning to the show as Spencer Cassadine, while in story Spencer is believed to have drowned int the Seine River after falling off a boat in France, when drugged by Esme.
So, looking forward to seeing Adam Huss back as Nikolas? Do you think GH will eventually have him more full-time? Comment below.

GENERAL HOSPITAL: Sonny and Jason Trade Threats on Each Other
The love affair that once was mobster Sonny (Maurice Benard) and hit man Jason (Steve Burton), and having each others back, is now apparently over! On the Thursday April 25th episode of General Hospital, an increasingly paranoid Sonny is confronted by Jason.
Jason wants to talk to Sonny about a “family matter”, but Sonny says they aren’t family now because he’s working with the Feds. Sonny goes on to say how he cannot trust Carly (Laura Wright) or Jason and he knows about Jason buying back the Metro Court for Carly from Nina (Cynthia Watros).
When the conversation turns to Josslyn (Eden McCoy) and Dex (Evan Hofer), Jason informs Sonny that Kristina (Kate Mansi) knows Sonny ordered a hit. Jason is worried about Dex’s safety. He tells Sonny that if he does something to Dex, Kristina will figure out that he is responsible.

Sonny goes on to say how much he loves his kids and how he will protect them. He then tears into Jason for abandoning his sons, Danny and Jake, for two years and how he has no right to stand there to tell him what to do.
Jason warns Sonny again to leave Dex alone or he’ll personally stop him. Sonny snaps at Jason, countering, “You’ll die trying!” And at that point, Jason walks out and Sonny slams the door behind him.
What do you think about this split in the longstanding relationship of Jason and Sonny? Do you like Jason and Sonny at odds? Will Kristina be the person to ultimately figure out what is happening to Sonny, or it might it be Nina, who knows Ava (Maura West) is up to no good? Share your thoughts in the comment section, but first watch this clip from part of the Sonny/Jason scenes below.

Breaking NewsApril 25, 2024REPORT: Nicholas Chavez Not Returning to General Hospital
WHO CARES.
I like the music, but I would love if they brought back Autumn Breeze or Faces of the Heart..
I like the fact that they are changing the cast pictures up. It’s nice to not see Sonny, Jason, Carly and Sam in the beginning, but I do miss the GH music.
What are they trying to prove or change up with this? Aren’t they suppose to have “all contract” players in the opening? Where is Traci and Edward? Not sure I like this at all!!
I don’t mind the cast rotating. Fine idea. I believe “One Life” did that. But the “music” is bad, and the photos go by too fast.
I agree! Not a fan of the music and photos are way too fast.
Forgot to say they should bring back the Dave Koz music, or have him write something new. that was the best music GH ever had.
Why not spend a fraction of a second on the significant actors they brought back from the past and what about the temporary ones to lure viewers?
Great idea!!!
To be honest when I heard it today, all I thought about was an updated Anther World opening from 2005. I am glad that they have updated it and made it shorter but would rather have all cast included. I also like the fast paced there taking with the show and opening….maybe this might just work!!
i really like the variety but miss the gh theme…………..
Still thumbs down… but it does go by so quickly you can’t really get a feel for the music. Would like the GH music.
don’t like it
we need to know what happen to every one on OLTL and where is robin going. I liked the ne Todd better than this one
I didn’t care for the music on Tuesday, but today’s (Wednesday), I thought sounded different or maybe I didn’t notice?! Ha! Ha!
In any event, SO glad that Jonathan Jackson is still in the opening credits. That speaks volumes!!
It either means he’s coming back(doubtful) or who ever is in charge of the opening credits doesn’t know who is in and who is out, and it doesn’t surprise me, on OLTL they had actors showing in the opening credits long after they were gone. It just makes them look like they don’t pay attention or care or lazy.
SHORT AND SWEET I could care less about the opening and the music,days of our lives have been showing the same hour glass ,its the same one that I watched 40 years ago when I quit watching when they moved days of our lives at the same time one life to life was on, well i choose to stick with one life to live a decision to this day ,I never regretted,less music,more show time .
the first day it took me playing it several times to get used to it but then second third and fourth day have been horrible, basically they show the same actors in different order, and to top it off in two of those sequence they show Jonathan Jackson in the credits, and he’s gone!. Maybe to alot of people it isn’t a big deal, but I believe even small things make a difference, it shows that no one is paying attention and to add further insult, i heard the music director for the show was fired so that FV could bring someone from OLTL, who in my opinion had one of the cheesiest opening. So MR. FV, why did you fire someone who was doing their job righ?
Does anyone know when the Paul Glass background music/song selections will start to air..? Chaning the intro song is one thing, what is making me nervous is changing the background music, since I think RC Cates is so great. Has Paul Glass’s background music already begun to air? The last couple days for Robin have been outstanding.. is this Glass’s work? Or Cates? This is troubling to me, because if what I heard today and yesterday is Cates, then Valentini fired a true master. If it is Glass’s work already, I can breath a sigh of relief.. anyone know..?
As far as intro goes… I wish they would as least have a version of what we know as the GH intro.. but like I said, what’s really troubling me is to change the backgrouond music, since it will def affect the entire mood/feel of the show… anyone know if Glass’s music has been airing..? I can’t seem to find it on Google….
