GENERAL HOSPITAL: Nina Has a Feeling She Has ‘A Daughter Out There’
The latest promo for this week’s episodes of General Hospital has been released and from the looks of it – and a key episode set to air on Wednesday April 8th – the mystery surrounding if Nina’s (Cynthia Watros) biological daughter is alive, and if so who is it, looks to be kicking into high gear.
There is that necklace that Nina is looking at in the promo, Nelle (Chloe Lanier) who seemingly now is being given an opportunity to work with Nina thus getting closer to her who notices the necklace, and then there is Willow (Katelyn MacMullen), who many have thought could actually be Nina’s daughter given their original tense relationship.
And coming up on Wednesday, look for a special episode where the show looks at Carly’s (Laura Wright) past with her adoptive parents Frank and Virginia Benson before she came to Port Charles in 1996.
Look for Eden McCoy (Josslyn) to play a young Carly, Cynthia Watros to play Virginia, James Patrick Stuart to play Valentin, and Willa Rose to play a young Nelle. What will we learn from that episode?
Now below watch the latest teaser from GH, and let us know if you think Nina will finally figure out who her real bio-daughter is via the comment section below.

Happy 57th Anniversary Today to General Hospital
ABC’s daytime drama, General Hospital turns 57 today, and remains the current longest-running soap opera on the air. GH debuted back on April 1, 1963.
The show was created by the husband-and-wife team of Frank and Doris Hursley. Originally, the soap was not given a name of a particular town in which the drama of the hospital was set in. However, that all changed in the 1970’s when GH was set in Port Charles.
GH expanded from a 30-minute show to a 45-minute show on July 26, 1976 and eventually went to a full-hour where it has remained back on January 16, 1978.
Throughout its decades on the air, GH was the impetus for two spin-offs; Port Charles, (which aired from 1997-2003) and primetime’s GH: Night Shift (2007-2008),
The show went through many ups and downs over its history, but things changed dramatically for the better, when by the end of the 1970’s and facing cancellation, ABC brought in executive producer, Gloria Monty to steer the ship. Monty created supercouple Luke and Laura played by Tony Geary and Genie Francis, and opened the show up with exciting location shoots, and from then on GH has remained a firm mainstay in the daytime line-up.
Today, Frank Valentini is the series executive producer, and the soap is co-written by the head writing team of Dan O’Connor and Chris Van Etten.
As 80%, as of now, in the US are reported to be homebound due to the COVID-19 pandemic, in the latest ratings for the week of March 23, 2020, GH drew 2.57 million viewers,- its strongest week since March 19, 2018. So, more eyeballs are tuning-in to the drama in Port Charles.

Can’t wait!!!!!!! bye bye Britch
Aww, poor Britt.
Nope its out this week. Then the battle over Ben begins
Maybe its Victor Cassidine funding the Jeromes…not Madelyn or we’ll have two cops, Dante and Nathan, with a parent who is head of the mob! Im still hoping the twist is Maxi is really Bens mother…there could have been an egg switch and Britt has carried Maxis son and Dante is still the father…crazy maybe but dont forget Ron C. is writing this show…LOL!!!
Well I lost faith in RC’s ability to surprise us when he wrote the lame ending to the who killed Connie story— that was such a let down that I no longer believe any wild crazy scenarios are forthcoming with this one; Ben is Lulu’s and Dante’s end of story- everyone guess it months ago when Britt showed up pregnant, just like everyone knew AJ stood for Ava Jermone when Connie died—it was only us with some imagination that held hope for a real shocker than never came. In my book RC is becoming predictable as every other soap writer out there.
I so agree with you…instead of giving us something totally unexpected to make the show fun and exciting he takes the predictable easy way out…no real shockers!!!
Well, his shockers end up being ludicrously absurd so its hard to say whether that is preferable to lamely predictable. I am so annoyed at the way he has ruined GH. I personally wish ABC would go back twenty, twenty-five or thirty years and just show reruns from that time forward. I bet they would get more viewers that way.
I think it could be Silas’s mother-in-law back rolling JEROME’S . That’s why they aren’t looking at Ava as he person of interest !
Yeah, let’s go back to when GH was so believable, with the Ice Princess and the freezing of Port Charles… smh…!!!
This has been a year and a half, let the truth be told
I hope that lulu and Dante take Britt through the hoop…she is a liar…walk away Nicholas now
Can’t wait to see the fireworks this week!
I kind of like Britt now…
Can’t wait to see this unravel!
Who is Julian working with? I wonder if it’s Jerry… Again… At this point maybe it’s too obvious to be Rick.
While the indications may seem to point to Jerry, it sounds as though this person is going to be more of a surprise….don’t forget Mr. Jacks already shared a brief scene with Ava and Julian last year when he fell from the roof of the MetroCourt and they rescued him and aided in his escape. If Jerry were bankrolling the Jeromes as partners in crime, wouldn’t it have been more obvious then? Their relationship was not clarified, but they definitely knew each other. Ava was there and seemed in on whatever link they had…..the other day, Julian appeared intent on keeping his benefactor a secret from his sister…..which leads me to suspect it’s someone else. Not buying that it’s Rick either. Maybe “Bill Eckert?”
Luke isn’t Luke. Bill Eckert back from the dead posing as Luke.
Or Jerry Jacks wearing a Luke mask…and behind the Jeromes!!!
Ugh. No more stupid masks!
I am on the edge waiting!!
WHOOOPIE!! the time has come..
I really like RC’s twists and turns and surprises..
But.. I do want Britt to have Ben 🙁
ohh well, it is soap and not always written as what ya want lol ..
I am so sick and tired of Brit getting away with her deceitful ways and her continued lies. It is time for her to pay a price for all she’s done. and it is time for Nikolas to get a grip and walk away from this lying Britch!! Can we wrap up this story line like NOW !!!
This story could have been much more interesting if it hadn’t been so obvious from the onset. Another wasted story opportunity while the audience has figured out the truth for a year or so! Ho Hum!
Can’t wait… let the games begin!!!
This is the most ridiculous storyline, that has gone on for far too long. I actually like “The Britch.” Great actress. Love her scenes with “Muttah.” Dante and Lulu bore me to tears now, now that Julie Marie Berman is gone. Was never a huge Lante fan; Dante is written as a keystone cop with an ego. Not sure he’s ever solved a case. Anyhoo, Lante was bearable with Julie Marie Berman. Not so much now. Love seeing Nik more. Tyler Christopher is so handsome. Great actor, too! Love having the Cassadines back!
I agree with this post…ridic storyline…yes…Dante and Lulu should have had an investigation into why their embryos were destroyed. I love Britt and Dr O. Dante and Lulu WERE my favs when JMB was there…loved them so much and I still miss them. I would rather see Dante move on without this version of Lulu. I love Nik too….he is great with so many including Britt and Liz.
I think the big twist is that Luke is going to rape Kiki.
Just like he did Laura at the disco…hope she doesnt get preggers…ugh!!!
The story has been spun out for so long that viewers really don’t care any more. Let Lulu and Dante have their child so they can fade into the background. There are other stories to be told.
Maxie is coming back — will she have her daughter with her?
Sonny is going to go through meltdown number 153, or something close to that. If he were to land in Miscavige and forgotten by all concerned, it wouldn’t bother me one little bit. Maybe Carly and Franco can share a padded cell with him.
What is up with Luke? Good story potential there.
Obrect’s sudden concern for her daughter is out of character. What is she up to?
I’d love to see Drake Hogestyn come to GH as a vigilante friend of Monica’s who dismantles both the Corinthos’ and the Jeromes’ power base — and does it with extreme prejudice. Monica has suffered greatly at the hands of Sonny and the Jeromes. It’s about time she got some payback.
When is Patrick going to grow up?
Where is Jerry Jax? He can’t be finished?
What is Scot Baldwin up to, besides being incompetent as a prosecutor? Where is his daughter(s)? Kevin needs more story. Get him away from Lucy. She is just too zany these days.
Where are Tracy’s sons?
Is Lucas going to remain in Port Charles? Give him a story more impressive than being a gay third wheel.
I think Jerry is wearing a Luke mask…Tracys son Ned is returning…where is Bobbi? If Drake was on the show(he is back on Days) id like him to play Jeff Webber…
I hope the truth comes out …………. this storyline as been dragging on way to long. I can’t stay Britt! As for the surprise I have no clue! Cheers!
can’t wait for the stuff to hit the fan… the fur to fly… and is Britt really the bio daughter of Fiason and Obrecht? Always wondered if Leisel (?) did the same thing trying to keep Faison.
Me too! Liesl’s reaction to Victor Cassadine’s initial appearance seemed suspiciously tense, like she had something to hide, perhaps her daughter’s true paternity? Normally, this lady is usually so cool, calm and collected, yet she was truly unhinged when she encountered him that first day at Wyndemere. But then again, if Britt is actually related to Nik, wouldn’t Dr. O. have been opposed to her upcoming marriage? Hmmmm…..
she seemed scared of him, to me. Which is odd, since he seemed like a nice Cassadine, not obviously evil like Helena I mean. So wonder if he’ll be around any more? I figure the egg he gave to Spencer was a bug for Robin’s house. Was hoping Patrick would have found it when he broke the other day…. otherwise the bug is now hiding in Kelly’s diner! ha!
Don’t let Victor fool you because he is so charming and debonair….he is still a bad one, just not quite as evil as his brothers, Helena and crazy nephew(s.) But he has always been my favorite Cassadine, and from what I have read, there is a good possibility that he will return….I certainly hope so! I think he has a lot more going on in Port Charles than meets the eye! Never considered a bugged Faberge’ egg angle, but that would have been a clever idea!
If they bring back those stupid masks, then the nickname ReRon for the head writer really is appropriate.
I can’t wait!!
I don’t want Britt to have the baby either!
I want them to give us a scene with Leslie Charleson and Donna Mills. Something like
MONICA: You remind me of my sister. She was bich just like YOU are!
I actually watched an old LOVE IS A MANY SPLENDORED THING scee on You Tube. Amazing to see the both so young!
I posted that a few times about Donna and Leslie but i want them to play estranged sisters on the show who havent talked to each other in years because Maddie stole Ninas father from Monica which couldve happened before Monica was involved with the Webber brothers and before she moved to Port Charles. It would be sort of a nod to their old soap where they played sisters in love with the same man played by David Bernie…Leslie and David use to date in real life!!!
That’s too bad, because I love Nik and Britta, but I can see now that they’re going to destroy them to reunite him with Liz. Well, sorry but I will never like the two people who broke Lucky’s heart in such a cruel manner.
As for Lulu, I’ve never liked her, hated the way she treated Maxie over baby Georgie, and do not want her to have a baby. Ben belongs with Britt, but having him be Lulu is all a part of destroying Nikitta I suppose.
Everyone wants Britt to pay for what she has done, well tell me who on this show ever pays for what they have done. Sonny shoots people in cold blood all the time. he is standing right in front of them and they live Dante, AJ . No wonder he thinks Shawn is a great killer for hire. Two peas in a pod. I have changed my mind and I like Britt. I also like Lulu, Dante the perjurer not so much. . I won’t bother to watch this .I don’t care . Will Scummy shoot Britt? Maybe Faison can return and show scummy how its done. he can kill Sonny. The surprise party crasher is either Ned or Sonny .sonny is the only one who would show up where he is not wanted. Look what he did at Robin’s funeral !I will read about it after it happens.maybe.
I am trying to find out where I can get the dress that Lulu was wearing at the engagement party. The black and white.
