Finola Hughes Returns to General Hospital!
Courtesy/ABC
Fantastic news GH fans! Daytime Emmy winner and fan favorite, Finola Hughes (Anna Devane) reported back to work on Monday at the long-running ABC daytime drama series!
That means that very soon Anna Devane will be back on-screen and on the canvas in Port Charles. According to ABC Soaps In Depth, look for Hughes to first be seen on the upcoming September 28th episode! As fans know, Hughes took a longer than expected summer leave from the series, but when Anna gets back in action, will she still be trying to get revenge on Julian (William deVry)? Will she help bring down hospital killer, Paul Horsnby (Richard Burgi)?
In the romance department, we know that Anna and Andre (Anthony Montgomery) looked for a moment that they might be heading towards somerhing more than friendship. but what will happen when Anna gets to know Dr. Joe Rivera (Jeffrey Vincent Parise)… the dead ringer for the man that haunts her, the late Carlos?
Share your thoughts in the comment section below on the news of Finola’s imminent on-screen return and who you think will be the man in Anna’s life?
I’m just glad Anna is going to be back on our screens soon.
Here hoping for some Robert Scorpio & Anna Devane duo action, how about those two extraordinaire characters teaming up as spies and doing something spectacular together?
Second the emotion!
Agree. Wish they would give Tristan Rogers a contract & put those two back together again.
great!! looking forward to seeing Anna, again..
She is very pretty lady..
((gawd I hope she didn’t have work done. I’ll notice in a heartbeat))
Rumor is she had her nails painted…i hope it doesnt upset her fans-lol
That is hilarious, Jimmy. Her finger nails; or her toe nails?
Lol too funny
Gee, Jimmy; I’d like the name of Finola’s mani-pedicurist. LOL.
Oh, no, su…please!! Do you notice how they ( those who had work done) all look like their faces have been ironed?
Coincidentally, Renee Zellweger is on THE LATE SHOW, with Jimmy Fallon. She looks sooo different.
I don’t think Finola needs anything done, anyway.
Finola had all nails done…hands and feet…they were painted yellow with little happy faces-lol
Finola is a beauty.
CeeCee…Saw Rene…still has a great body…but she seemed kinda whacked out…LOL…if her shorts were any shorter…She seemed to be in flaunting mode. Notice how she kept standing up…continued her cheerleader routine after Jimmy seemed done…then kept her shoes off and struck a pose? She was, how shall I put this…ANNOYING! Good actress though…
Yep…its Anna and Joe but im not sure about the chemistry…too bad the writers destroyed both Julian and Paul…mixed feelings tieing Hayden to Liz…Sabrina back at the hospital-i guess there will be a Sabrina, Joe and Anna love triangle…not sure about Andre..could be interesting with him and Anna but Anna had the best chemistry with Robert…jail scenes have been a joke…hospital is back more front and center but there is no suspense in the serial killer scenes…if Paul is truly the killer hope it has something to do with daughter Susan but not really knowing her and killing off day players makes this story not so good!!!
Jimh…I still want to see Anna and Robert together again. But I don’t know how that will happen since he’s still at Y&R. The only advantage to the Robert/Colin duo is that you get a double dose of Tristan everyday.
They are slowly bringing Joe into play again, just in time for for Julian’s trial. Sonny finally got a glimpse of him the other day. Be interesting to see how Anna will react when she sees Joe. Hopefully the summer off did Anna some good.
I still question that Paul is the hospital killer, and the one who pushed Elizabeth down the stairs…even with the cufflink. First motive? And It’s hard for me to believe that no one recognized those shoes as being his. They really stand out. Seems to me that everything is too pat and falling into place re: Paul.
Can’t say I like the story they are building around Ava and Morgan. She’s done some really bad things in the past, but to change Morgan’s pills is really awful And to think I was starting to maybe give Ava another look because I liked her scenes with Nik/Nicholas.
Anna and Robert should had been GHs leading couple…
No chances for Ava–and Paul has been unmasked as the killer already!
Hi Rose – I hope they can right the wrong on this ship
what is this? just another plot point to better serve , lord Sonny ? to bring angst to his family for story ?
it would seem J and S ought to know… the general consensus .. less is more of Carly and Sonny
LOL
oh well… it would seem that Ava was clearly heading out of their orbit… what with shared custody with Avery… let bygones be
Ava needs Nicholas for this very reason… plus they had something immediate and palpable… YIKES
the ship with Ava and Morgan has sailed… AVA !? really ? even Kiki is going to move on with Dillon
PS: Dr. Joe meets Ana… ? why not… their was so much steamed stymied and shy away from obvious jail cell tensions… w/ Carlos… Dr. Joe isn’t missing a beat… which if the show goes this route… why not ?!?! JVP as Dr. Joe is so affable endearing and neverending interest.
If Paul is the killer… and Sabrina is the next kill…. i’m going to be dissapointed
Rose…gave you been watching consistantly? There’s no room for doubt, even before today, that Paul’s the killer. Unfortunate…but true.
I feel the same way about Ava, they were getting somewhere with her in a relationship I never would’ve thought of with Nicholas, a kindred spirit that evened her out and touched her heart, then they give her this cheap, twisted story like she’s some out of control, overprotective mom instead of strong mob Queen? I also hate the fact that the killer looks like Paul, because the actor is amazing in all his scenes, and I would be more satisfied if the killer at least worked IN the hospital.
I actually think Paul is going to try to kill Sabrina. As I said a few days ago, Sabrina will help Curtis ‘de-mask’ our friendly, neighborhood DA. I got the impression that Paul gives her the creeps….she suspects something…..just doesn’t know what, yet.
Hopefully Sabrina will tell Curtis this on her deathbed…then Tracy and Joe can fight for custody of the baby…
Ah, Celia, you may be on to something. Sabrina must be back for a reason and we can’t depend on Nurse Amy to suss out the killer. And Jordan The Great is probably only hours away from arresting Jason for the murders. Oh, Anna, take back your job!
I must retract……is it possible for Jordan to have put her Commish hat on? Have I spoken too soon? She seems to be putting the scattered pieces to the puzzle together. Who will finally nab the killer?
Perhaps Jordan and Nathan will prove themselves as incomparable cops. Ha!!
@Jimh(leave it to beaver).
Awwww, Jimmmy-yy!! I love Sabrina. So happy to see her.
You have a point for a good storyline, though. A custody battle.LOL.
ok, just for you i will let Sabrina live!!!
Well, I could not wait to watch GH, today, poor Sabrina. I am so upset about that!!
Oh, please enough of this idiocy now. Get Paul!!
He is responsible for the address mix-up, for sure. And, Scotty is a clown. Too bad, since I like him.
So, Paul laced Alexis’s water with something? How-Thomas -Neill -Cream-of-him!!!!!
Whatever Paul put in that discarded cup ( duh!! The cup will be tested and so on, and so forth), makes Alexis go haywire….all over the place. Poor Alexis, her account will be so erratic…..or, on second thought? Perhaps Paul gave her something that affects her memory. This case will be thrown out of court….just as I stated earlier, Julian will go free. Rrrattzzz!!
What now? Will he accost Alexis trying to get her back? Will he try to make nice with Sam and Lucas? Will he grow more hair on his head?
Alexis should take her younger daughters and go on a long vacation.
I think Curtis should be Andre or Felix rough trade on the DL..Carlivati would have made this happen..oh well
Lol at rough trade, at least Curtis that would give him and Felix a story instead of being denmothers to everyone.
That’s it in a nutshell–“NOT SO GOOD.”
Thank God! Have so missed this woman!
The man in Anna’s life should be Duke. They were never given a real chance. Just 2 years of crumbs.
So true. So far none of the duds they’ve attempted to pair her with since Duke has worked. Finola Hughes is in a league all her own and it takes a special actor, character to play in her league. Ian Buchanan is very much missed.
Yeah, such a mistake to kill Duke! Should have “redeemed” him!
Agreed, and the worst part is they had the nerve to kill Duke and then bring his son on the show? What a slap in the face to Duke/Anna fans.
i’m glad shie’s coming back soon, but seriously none of the guys on the show now are good for her, ande is a bore, carlos twin now that would be in very bad taste, quit repulsive honestly. Anna needs someone like Robert, if not Robert himself, she needs a wsb type guy. someone who is mysterious, lives life on the edge, a little dangerous, but still a good guy, hence a wsb type guy.
I agree, aria. No one suits Anna on the show, right now. I was thinking Jeff Webber? Is he married already? So many actors, to play the part, have been suggested. But, who would make us ‘catch our breath’ when paired with her?
In my opinion, the sexiest is Victor Alfieri….so hot!! But, he’s too young. The best for the role is Walt Willey.
Oh my gosh Walt Willey would make an excellent Jeff Webber.
@Jimh(leave it to beaver).
Lol, Jimmy. I called it!!!!! I just had a feeling Paul would get Sabrina. Will he kill her?
Applause not necessary!! LOL.
oh my gosh darned it
“…but what will happen when Anna gets to know Dr. Joe Rivera (Jeffrey Vincent Parise)… the dead ringer … ”
giddy time
Rumors are Sabrina will die this week, Paul will kill Sabrina.
Stop teasing me!
Timmmmmmm-yyyyy. Hush!!!!! LOL.
Isn’t this news the absolute “cat’s meow,” Timmmbo???? I had to pinch myself to be sure I wasn’t just dreaming when I read the spoilers and that we weren’t being set up for a huge letdown with Sabs living to see another day! All I know is that it’s about time for this useless character to go bye-bye! Please, please, PLEASE let it be thus!!!!!
Hey Paul, get your paws (er, needle) off/out of MONICA! Sabrina, save her, please!
Really, David? LOL. And, here I thought I made that up in jest.
Yes yes wonderful news, my sweet Finola is back. I love that pic of Finola, she has a nice smile. Beautiful lady and terrific actress. I adore this lady. Welcome back Anna Devane..
Oh, Claudio, you are so right! This woman exudes beauty, class, talent, and a sense of rich history that the show really needs right now. I know we must bring on new characters, but why so many in such a short time? I love Anna’s friendship with Griffin and hope to see more of that. As far as romance, I always thought she and Franco (with a decent haircut) would be Explosive! Barring that, what about Curtis? Why waste him on that twit Valerie?!
Yes, show is in dire needs of a sense of history!
You bet, Claudio.
You and Soaphound describe Finola/Anna to the letter. I have been a fan since her role as Alex on AMC.
Anna should be involved in Wsb Stories. I’m sick of her running around the pcpd playing cops and robbers whilst trying t take down mobsters and dealing with rather pedestrian criminal activity. The wealth of her history is based in wsb/dvx. Give her and adenture plot, intrigue us.
Paul would have been a good choice for Anna if the IDIOTS in charge hadn’t decided to make him a serial killer. How short-sighted of them!
How about Ric? Get him back on my screen more!
Or Ned? Put him on contract now that he’s been demoted at DOOL.
I was really beginning to like Paul! Once they seemed to have reinvented him back to a good guy (though when I thought about it he did use Ava sexually and kill Sloan in cold blood)… But LOL BECAUSE I forgot about those events I could have seen him with Anna or Alexis.
Would love to see Ned back full time and back with Alexis. Love Rick but there’s no way Anna would date him.
Someone mentioned John Schneider the other day to play Jeff Weber. Now HE is a stunning guy! They should bring him as Jeff…or as a WSB dude…for Anna.
Hi, Rebecca.
Yeah, that was funny….but, with iPhones, iPads etc. nothing is surprising. That’s ok. No worries.
I did watch Monday….only because my sister was here, and she loves the show.
Yes, the security guard over-did his duty. I think he used muscle to give himself a sense of power/authority. Then, again, one never knows what may have unfurled.
By the same token, I felt no pity for Lochte. He had one purpose; win or lose; to represent his country. Honestly, Rebecca? I take that personally. I am a proud, steadfast patriot. What this idiot did was reprehensible. He’s no child….should have known the consequences. ….know what I mean?
I, do, however think that he did the right thing by continuing to be visible instead of sulking and hiding. Sometimes it’s the only way.
As far as Renee….you may be right. Her nervousness could be due to shyness. I suppose there’s a difference being in front of a camera shooting a movie; from being live on a show. There’s no: CUT!!!! Perhaps she was self-conscious.
Time permitting, I’ll watch a few of her movies. LOL. Later.
Hi Rebecca…Oh, I have been watching consistently. Re: my not sure Paul was the hospital serial killer, I think it was partly wishful thinking. I have liked him as an actor, even on other shows, and was hoping that they could find a reason to keep him on GH. Not s sure if he has to go to prison…or worse.
Hi Cee…I agree in terms of why the security guy may have done what he did…but on the other hand the other security guy took a “peaceful” approach and just grabbed the other protester and walked him off. As for Lochte…there are far worse crimes than his. I’m not defending him per se and in fact I might find him quite arrogant/full of himself to boot if I ever met him. But I’m just thinking at the time of the incident he and his friends were probably riding high…LOL…I don’t mean literally but maybe they were…I think they were pumped with adrenaline and excitement, got rowdy, got caught. It looks like they were held at gunpoint by the security and supposedly they were asked for money on the spot if I got that right…his story wasn’t an outright lie but an exaggerated one. I don’t think he or his friends meant to cause an international incident! I think they weren’t thinking…and it spiraled. Brazil took offense that an American was criticizing their country…America had to apologize. This isn’t as I said to defend Lochte..he and his friends should have known better, acted more responsibly and the whole thing should never have happened. But these athletes train all their lives. Their sport, the competition, their reputation, representing their country…it’s all so important that I can’t believe he would do anything to jeopardize any of it if he was actually using his brain…nor do I think he did anything with malice, rather with stupidity and immaturity. Make sense? He is paying the price. Suspended, humiliated, tainted. Meantime killers and rapists are walking free on a technicality….
I think you’ll like Rene’s movies, from Jerry Maguire to Bridgette Jones Diary. Start with the first one…the current one is whet she’s promoting now.
Hi Rose. Hope you didn’t think I was being sarcastic or condescending. I really didn’t know if you were catching every episode; thought you had said you weren’t but maybe I was mistaken. But I know what you mean! I really like Paul (took me a while to warm up to him) and was getting very comfortable with him becoming more prominent on the show. WAs looking forward to him interacting with the Q’s, his relationship with Dillon, a possible relationship with Anna or if Alexis is REAlLY single again could see them together too. He and Ava make great enemies…fun to watch their cat and mouse game. Sigh. But no. He’s guilty. I’m not one of the fans who want characters to pay for their crimes…because if I like the character that’s, to use a cliche, cutting off my nose to spite my face…LOL…which is the STUPIDEST expression….but, if they pay they either die or go to jail. And then they’re off the show. So, I WANT Julian to go free because I like the character and the same for Paul. I’m stuck though on Sonny paying for killing AJ. More along the lines of Michael’s complete rejection of him and continued loyalty to AJ and the Q’s…and Ava taking back Avery. For a long while at least…don’t want to lose Sonny either. Just wanna see him twist! 😉
I’m glad Anna will be back on my GH screen soon as for the man dept. I was hoping Paul could of change his ways to be closer to Anna, but that might not happen she most likely work with the PCPD to bring down the hospital killer as for Andre he is still duable to match up with Anna he might have am edge to him if he let loose but who knows Jordon will be too jealous and she might want to hurt Andre for really liking Anna if she finds out he confess to Anna about his feelings Jordon will flip on him and he feel sorry for Jordon. I always love Anna/Robert together but I know that won’t happen!! Just glad she is coming back!!
She needs to bring Paul down–and take over her rightful position–Commish!
Yes, so right but if she brings Paul down who knows she might be the new top notch DA, she be over the commish for sure I can see her take over the top DA role
Welcome back beautiful Finola! I guess Julian is going to skip jail? I hate when the writers write a character into a corner and come up with a lame ass excuse to free these crooks. Sonny and Ava got these breaks, as well. I dont know what Julian’s freedom does to Alexis and Anna? I suppose Julian will play hero when something happens to Danny or he runs to Alexis’s side after she is DUI and kills someone? But anyway, Anna, I like that Robert will be around to assist Anna in taking down Paul. After that, Robert will be gone so Anna will need a lover. I still think her and Grif? Kind of odd but no blood relation. Grif may not even be Duke’s son? Who knows. Good to see a grade A actress back on GH with Jane Elliot!
That’s why I am so lukewarm (PUN intended!) about GH–their “lame excuse to free crooks.” Just grates! 🙁
Yes, Robert should assist Anna in taking down Paul.
Very enlightening post, Timmmy. You pegged these characters so correctly.
I don’t know if you had read my post way back, when I did say that Duke is probably not Griffin’s father. Good storyline right there!!
And, yes, I am enjoy Tracy, myself. She looks like she lost some weight….
I agree about Tracy, CeeCee. I said on some other post she looks great…younger…less tired. Either she had some really good work done or maybe it is something as simple as losing weight as you said which I thought as well. But ever since she recovered from her strange exotic brain bug she looks fantastic!
@Rebecca1.
Hi, Rebecca,
I love Tracy’s temperament. She tells it like it is. Love that about anybody.
I don’t think she had anything done to her face, though. I can spot ‘them’ a mile away….I am surrounded by them, LOL. not in my family, thank God.
Jane Elliot is aging gracefully and she’s beautiful!!!
She looks very happy.
CeeCee…did you watch DWTS? Have u been watching AGT?
@Rebecca1.
Hey, Rebecca,
I am not very ‘enamored’ of DWTS. I only catch a few shows here and there, depending who the dancers are. The last time I watched was when Candice Cameron was on….because of FULL HOUSE. LOL. I make a point of not watching, especially, when Max Chmerkovskiy is on. I cannot tolerate arrogance. The guy thinks he is a gift to the female population. I like his brother much better. So humble…love that about a guy. Ironically, the brothers are close to Candice ( whom I love) because her husband is Russian….they have that in common.
The same goes for AGT. As I said to Shay, I try watching whatever I record that interests me. I usually watch AGT, avidly, the first eps when all contestants try out.
I looove FLIP OR FLOP, and such!!!!
As far as Renee with Fallon? She has never been one of my favorite actresses. She’s strange!! LOL.
i don’t know if you recall, not too long ago, Renee transformed so much to elicit so many negative comments. The tabloids had a field day. I do not know if she is a good actress or not. I do not watch her movies.
I do believe she made her debut in JERRY MAGUIRE. I was ten. But, I never watched the movie, as an adult, because I can’t stand Tom Cruise either….so, there you go!! LOL. Later.
Good Morning CeeCee…
I had a love affair with DWTS since it first jitterbugged its way across my TV screen. The dancers, spectacular choreography, the music…just the epitome of joy and entertainment. Couldn’t get enough! Then…the CONFLICT. LOL. They put it against The Voice which I also love. I’d watch for an hour, then switch channels…I’d watch one, then catch the other OnDemand. Alak, sigh…I sorta drifted away from DWTS…not because the show went downhill, but my schedule wouldn’t allow…or I thought I’d eventually catch up but then the winners were announced…should be our biggest problems in life, right?
This is funny…not. Okay, maybe a little. I wrote like three more paragraphs but scrolled up to read for auto spell bloopers..hit send…and it only sent the part I scrolled up to! Completely wiped out the other paragraphs! Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Summation. Asked if u watched DWTS because of the Ryan Lochte thing. Thought you did (watch the show regularly). Anyway, I watched last week when the protesters rushed the stage. Actually felt bad for Ryan, but also felt the security guard went way too violent on the protester. Still love the show. Whenever I catch it it’s just as creative, incredibly choreographed… love the competition combined with the comraderie. Excellent entertainment show and I can’t revel enough in the dancing. Max? He was my fave when the show first started. Loved him with his long hair…and he is talented. I didn’t mind his attitude; he never got nasty, just kinda full of himself. LOL. I’ve dealt with those kind of guys in my dancing days…love throwing their arrogance back at them. Then it just becomes a game and the ones I’ve “put in their place” usually laughed, (good-naturedly) at themselves, with me. But agree, arrogance in general is obnoxious.
AGT had the most amazing array of talent I’ve ever seen on any televised show! Some of the acts were visually stunning, one all-guy dance act from Argentina was hot and exciting and “off the chain”, LOL, to quote the gorgeous Mel B. There was a contortionist which I don’t normally like watching…but this girl combined an almost ballet-like/steady flow of beautiful movement combined with acrobatics…amazing! And a juggler! Except no ordinary juggler. Dressed in a skin tight flesh-colored unitard…complete with bald head and dramatic makeup he looked like a male sculpture of perfection as he juggled against visually captivating backdrops with dynamic precision…beautiful, graceful, unique, artsy, indie…he was incredible. And Simon Cowell was a plus. So fun…not nearly as brash.
Renee Z. Is a fantastic actress! I’ve liked every film she was in. She’s been nominated for many awards and won, I believe, an Academy Awatd and Golden Globe. She was married to country singer Kenny Chesney for about a day; they got their marriage annulled. I watched her on James Cordon last night. She was as fidgety…pulling at her skirt, tapping her hands or legs…but she comes off very nice. I wasn’t annoyed by her as I was on Fallon because I think, after seeing her again, that she’s very humble and unfortunately insecure or self-conscious. Maybe it’s because she feels judged by the work she had done on her face? She was adorable so I think people wondered why she’d mess with surgery. I still think she’s beautiful…but looks very tired, which is the opposite of what plastic surgery tries to achieve. Still, she’s honoring her commitments and promoting her new film…with a friendly attitude. I like her!
So happy she is coming back soon. Her absence has been most glaring; a huge gap in the canvass.
I hope she has good story when she returns. In the romance department, I hope she’s not paired with Andre. He’s too boring.
Yes, GLARING!
Yes, do NOT pair her with Andre!
I agree with Aria about Anna needing a good guy. I am happy with her return to GH.
MAYBE GRIFFIN. THAT WOULD BE A HOT COUPLE
Well, if Griffin is Duke’s son? Gee, I think that would not sit well with many, paula.
Besides, I doubt Anna would break from conformity that easily.
But anyway, I would rather see Grif with Liz. Anna could hook up with Valentin? That could be explosive! OR, cut the cast and bring in a new, sexy police commissioner that Anna falls for. THAT way Anna falls in love and we get rid of JorDUMB!
Yeees! Valentin……,in the guise of a lover. Explosive is good, Timmmy. So much so, that Valentin will become putty in her hands….her slave. Anna’s reasons would be to fish out so many secrets. Then NAB him. What if Helena has Duke ( prisoner) and Valentin discloses this fact? Hmmmm. I still like Walt Willey, though.
But, if age is not an issue….then Victor Alfieri. Now, that would be HOT!!!! He should be cast as Valentin, in my opinion.
Speaking of getting rid of someone….I vote for Morgan. Thanks to Ava ( which is so inconceivable for her to replace pills…dumb move by the writers) Morgan is hyper again. Do not like seeing how he is turning into a freak.
Again, straighten him out, or ship this character to College….far, far away; since he’s suddenly so gung-ho on education.
Anna does not have a clean record. She has saddled up with Duke and Luke [Sounds like a tween show on the Disney Channel!} so it wouldnt be out of the question for her to hook up with Valentin. I like how you think, yes Helena could have Duke locked away and Anna could find him in the midst of her tryst with Val. We know in our hearts Helena is a live. I dont think we see Duke again until Frank Valentini is gone. He made the decision to ax him and bringing him back would be an admission of being wrong! Something he doesnt seem to ever be guilty of?
@Timmm.
Hey, Timmmy,
Ahaha!!!!! Duke and Luke. Sounds like a 60’s musical duo. Maybe they are JAN and DEAN in disguise ( LITTLE OLD LADY FROM PASADENA).
I have heard how Anna ‘likes’ the bad boys before. Hmmmm. It’s Valentin then…!!
I’m surprised she never hookd up with Sonny or Julian….or did she?
Anyway, speaking of Julian……he had a razor in his hand….shaving…..in jail…..Was anyone in the cell with him? Is that even allowed?
Well, now…our Ms Lizzie. She plays the little she-devil very well. I love the scenes between her and Hayden. They are so completely different but yet, so alike—-oxymoronish, but true. A long life together on GH for these characters. Right now, they make the show and I enjoy every minute of it.
Happy that Finola is coming back. If they are not bringing Duke back from the dead, then put Anna & Robert back together.
I don’t want to see her with Joe; no point in that long-term.
Tristan and Finola still have chemistry, and lots of history.
Given the current storyline for Colin on Y&R, they could easily write Tristan off Y&R in a month or so.
I know Tristan is not on contract with either soap, but GH should scoop him up while they can. It would help their ratings.
And how about more interaction with Mac and Felicia? We see them a few times a year!
Totally agree. I was an early eighties to late eighties fan of the show. Stopped, and picked back up for the 50th anniversary show. Have been watching very sporadically as of late. To mant characters to keep track of. But I would watch more if they took some of the “vets” out of hiding. They really do need to gut some the cast.
Thank the Divine she is back! She is the lifeblood of this show for me. Although I like a few others, I don’t really care for most of the main players on this show.
Duke. I will always want her with Duke and why else bring his son on (and is he her son too?!) and not bring him back. RC did him wrong and us fans when he killed him off so hastily. Those last scenes on the dock were amazing as they tried to escape. They were the only SuperCouple left on the show. We need at least one to set the bar higher for these young actors. Besides, if they are going to build an entire storyline around him for a year and mention his name mega times, he is important enough to bring back and write story for especially since he was used so little by RC and FV last time around. There is gobs to write about the guy.
“SOO Excited Finola, “YEAH”!!!!!! Is Tyler coming Too!!!??!!!
Tyler is out. FV lowballed him to make more room for his OLTL pets.
“SOO EXCITED FINOLA IS COMING BACK”!!!”What about Luke and Nicholad?”!!!<
Awesome news…….. Her majesty returns. Can we pull out the stops with her and Griffin? He could be her son she allegedly miscarried. Bad girl Olivia Jerome could have taken the fetus.

Adam Huss Makes Another Return to General Hospital as Nikolas Cassadine
Nikolas Cassadine will be back on your screens next week but now via Pentonville. That means, that actor Adam Huss is back for a visit for all-new episodes of General Hospital.
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.
Photo: ABC
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
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.
Courtesy/ABC
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.

REPORT: Nicholas Chavez Not Returning to General Hospital
For those who were holding out hope that Daytime Emmy winner and fan favorite, Nicholas Chavez would be returning to General Hospital after filming his leading role in Ryan Murphy’s Monsters anthology, it looks like those hopes have been dashed.
According to a report from TV Line, although unconfirmed from General Hospital or a representative for Chavez, the actor will not reprise his role as Spencer Cassadine on the long-running ABC soap opera and continue the love story of Sprina opposite Tabyana Ali (Trina, GH).
Chavez was cast as Lyle Menendez over the the summer of 2023 for the second season of Murphy’s limited Monsters series on Netflix. In the upcoming season, the series will focus on the the case of Lyle and Erik Menendez, the two well-to-do Beverly Hills brothers accused of murdering their parents in 1989.

After word from Chavez casting was revealed, GH fans were concerned over the fate of the Sprina story, a spokesperson for GH shared, “We support Nicholas’ endeavors and look forward to having him return to General Hospital once this project is wrapped.”
In story, the series “killed off” Spencer when he went overboard with Esme to the steely waters below after being injected with a drug, thanks to Esme and falling into the Seine River in France. However, his body was never recovered, and believed to have drowned or washed away. Thus, leaving an opening for Spencer to return in the form of Chavez or be recast down the line.

TV Line shared that ‘multiple sources’ are confirming that Chavez is not returning to the ABC soap opera, which is what many had suspected might be the case once he left for this major starring role in a Ryan Murphy project. Chavez has been relatively quiet on social media for months.

The Michael Fairman Channel spoke with Nicholas Chavez for a virtual interview when he first joined the show in 2021, and spoke to him right after when he won the Daytime Emmy in 2022 – you can see those below.
No word yet on when Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menéndez Story will debut on Netflix, but it is assumed later this year.
