Awesome. He’s a true talent. Even though the cast is way big, I’ll be happy to see him. A suspicious Brit? Is he connected to Finn, or Rachel/Hayden, or Laura. Hopefully not the mob.

not familiar with his work, but if he’s brit, hopefully he’s playing some mi6 spy and he knows anna, that would be cool, otherwise i don’t know if it s mob related again then count me bored.

SUPER NEWS…..HE WILL BE A WONDERFUL ADDITION.

Trent is a fantastic “get” for GH! Can’t wait to see him on the show. But as happy as I am to see him again, I am glad it’s just short term, as I feel the cast is too bloated. If someone, a lot of someones, go, then I’m love to see him back for more. He’s a true treasure.

Glad to hear it is short term. There are much better GETS from defunct soaps…

I know that I am probably not alone when I say I have been a huge fan of GH in the late seventies to the mid eighties. Everyday after school my sister and I would be glued to the TV set. After real life and work set in I lost track. I picked it up again when they were having the 50th anniversary nurses ball and I got caught up in the Sabrina, Patrick and Brit storyline. I am glad that Genie Fra ncis is getting somewhat of a story with the Helana Cassidine will reading. What would be nice… Read more »

Love it. I am a big fan of Trent Dawson, still miss Henry from ATWT’S.

I cannot wait! I adored him and Colleen Zenk as Barbara and Henry on ATWT. Maybe he will be connected to Finn or Griffin Munro! Who knows? That’s why we love to watch!

I am absolutely thrilled to hear this! He’s a great catch and a multi-talented actor that can pull off drama and comedy simultaneously! So happy!

Please keep him on permanently – super talented, under-utilized and when the story lines were on fire right when ATWT ended he was in the thick of it. Have him interface somehow with Brad and Lucas or Olbrecht.

What delightful news tonite!! Loved him on ATWT! Looking forward to seeing what he will be bringing. Good move, GH!

I can’t wait to see him back on TV. HE WAS THE BEST THING ABOUT AS THE WORLD TURNS. it’s not often you see true acting chops on a soap, much less comedic ones, but Trent has them and it showed in every scene he was in. Even in his guests spots on prime time he really managed to shine.

I love Trent Dawson. I will look forward to seeing him. Maybe his story is with Felix and Finn. We can find out what Finn is actually up to. The actor is not British.

I don’t even care who this character will be connected to, I’m just thrilled to have the chance to see Trent Dawson on screen again.

I love Trent Dawson please keep him as long as he wants to stay. I want to meet him in person it’s on my bucket list and I am 68 years young.

I am a huge Trent Dawson fan. Met him and his now wife Sharon at one of the soap events. They were both so super nice and chill. He is immensely talented and I saw him on stage in New York City too. He has a baby now who is adorable. I hope he gets to be a dad on GH. I always loved him in scenes with babies on atwt. Really thrilled he’s coming back. We should start a writing campaign to get him a contract like we did with world turns.

Why..

I am ecstatic he is joining the cast. He is a unique talent and daytime has not seen the likes of him ever. I cannot think of a better injection of true talent to the cast to get it energized. He light up the screen every time he’s on it. I didn’t like the storyline at the end of atwt because i wanted him with Katie, but he played his romance with Barbara beautifully. Bravo GENERAL HOSPITAL!

My wife got me hooked on atwt and the only way I could stand it was because of Trent’s character, Henry. He was hilarious and could also evoke true emotion. I have been eagerly awaiting him to get his own show on prime time. That guy would rock a sitcom, or even better, a dramedy where he gets to really show his chops. HBO and showtime are missing out on this true talent. He would be PERFECT on VEEP. I don’t often comment on things like this, in fact, I never do, but Trent is a unique talent who I… Read more »

Yay!!! Trent Dawson is tremendously talented. I’ve seen him on stage in multiple productions in Baltimore (he does a great British accent, btw) and once in NYC. What a multi-faceted talent! General Hospital would be wise to tap into his talent AND his fan base and bring him on board full time. So excited to see this. Not enough true talent on TV in general these days.

I cannot WAIT to see Trent back on daytime, I agree with the other comments that he belongs on HBO or SHOWtime but in the interim, I will take him however I can get him. This is great news for GH and great news for me! I follow him on Twitter and his Facebook fanpage and I love whenever I see news about him Just aweseome.

Yay! So happy to see Trent back on daytime. I have watched all of his primetime shows and he was great, but there is something about seeing him everyday that really appeals to me. He is soooooo talented and is actually a really nice guy (went to his annual fan event, Martini’s with Henry in NYC). He was so engaging and seemed so appreciative that everyone made the trip. I want more of those events!! Anyway, I am thrilled to see him back on TV and hope GH is smart and gives this man a contract. TRUE TALENT!!

Trent is my favorite actor. I say that having seen him on stage and on ATWT. He is incredibly talented. I had always hoped he was gay and he has played gay men on stage in such unique ways that I still wondered. But, alas, he is straight and married to a lovely woman I met at a soap event years ago. He is not my favorite because I thought was was gay (and attractive) but because he is so versatile. He plays a Brit beautifully and a southern minister convincingly and a 1950’s con man to perfection. I never… Read more »

I am not a soap fan–I am a Trent fan. i agree with a lot of other people that Trent is the reason I watched ATWT. My mom liked the show and I always rolled my eyes when she watched until Trent joined the show in 1999. He was so funny and charming and DIFFERENT from the other actors that I just loved watching him. I eventually saw him on stage in NYC and realized how talented he really is. I work in the theatre now doing lighting and have worked with some people who worked with him. They say… Read more »
