ABC’s General Hospital, which has been firing on all cylinders of late, has released a super-sized promo, that was first shown live to fans over the weekend at the series 2nd annual event at Graceland in Memphis, Tennessee.

Look for major stories to kick-off and some to tease what is to come. According to this week’s promo, a turf war is definitely upon us and the Corinthos family as someone is coming after the clan. But who?

Meanwhile, just how will Nelle get away with insinuating herself in Wiley’s life by blackmailing Bead? How will she keep Willow away from the child she thinks is hers?

Then, it’s the return of Nicolas Bechtel as Spencer Cassadine as Nikolas with Ava in tow, finally tells his son that he is alive! Looks like Spencer will not be as forgiving as one thought. Will he seek revenge on his father?

And it looks like Jax and Nina may finally give int o temptation and their longstanding attraction to one another, as Valentin faces custody issues with Scarlett via Lulu.

The end of the teaser, reveals gun-fire and a shoot out that goes down on the pier that could change the course of lives forever, with it looking like Mayor Laura has bee shot.  How will this all turn out?

Watch the extended promo below! Then, let us know what you think will happen in these storylines on General Hospital via the comment section.

LOVING my GH…To me GH and BB are the only two shows that still feel like the good old days of soap writing…KEEP it COMING…Oh BTW, GH and BB has the best background music of the 4 left…Y&R always had that honor but it’s #3 now IMO when it comes to background music…Music staff at BB use to be with Y&R for years…I know it’s off the topic of the PROMO..Have a GREAT week everyone and let’s keep watching GH…

Yay! Looking forward to all these stories unfolding! (Now, if only the network wouldn’t interrupt their schedule for the impeachment hearings. That’s one soapy mess I’d rather get a summary of at night and watch on C-SPAN if I want to hear more.)

ABC made two huge errors a few years back…

The first one was cancelling the SoapNet channel. If that was still around, all 4 of the existing soaps could run in prime time and they wouldn’t have to worry about all the timelines getting shot to Hell (and not in a good way) like we saw with the failure of GH episodes airing in the proper order over the Helliday season.

The second was ABC caving into the greedy cable monopolies and locking down the access to streaming episodes from their website (and previously Hulu, when they still had a free option|). ABC is a free to air network, and the content on their website should be free as well. It’s not like most viewers aren’t paying one of the big oligopolies for their internet access anyway, and they embed ads in the stream, so it’s not like they aren’t making money from it.

You can watch a weekly show 8 days later and not miss much. But that doesn’t work with a show that airs Monday-Friday every week.

Time for ABC to bring back either Soap Net, same day free streams from their website, or both.

(for those of you who know how to use a VPN, there’s always the City TV website in Canada, of course. Though be advised, the ads they run up there are often 10 times louder than the actual TV program. You were warned!)

Hi Satan .. 🙂
thing is;
Daytime TV is struggling to stay alive
(unless useless talk shows/no cast/no scriptwriters/no sets
and huge casts/actors to pay. etc.)
Soaps are extremely expensive, considering they’re daytime..
We’re lucky to still have 4 soaps, actually.

All that is gone will stay gone.
And better all that gone than a soap being gone.

I’d luv to have soaps on cable or broadcast evenings
but–
that will never happen.
it all comes down to $$$ and soaps fall short.

Perhaps a monthly fee will eventually save them.
(if even enough fans to pay to sustain them.

Is it me, or is Gladys incredibly annoying? It’s just awkward, how she pops-in on random scenes. Insipid Lulu can go. Brook, she can definitely go! Jordan and Taggert, awkward and forced. & Ramsey, the child actors could give him acting lessons. He’s the worst. I like NuNina, and NuNik is growing on me.

I so agree, DMRR. Gladys is a good actress, but an annoying an unnecessary character. Lulu and her new, lifeless romance are boredom at the highest level. Jordan, Taggert….more “who cares” drivel, and Peter Peter Scene Eater is singlehandedly ruining this show for me. We can’t get the great Billy Miller or Rebecca Budig but we get double doses of that lying worm? No wonder I’m glued to the FF button.

YUP, I know, Soap Hound. AGREED!! The show is unwatchable.

Nell…biiiiiitch. LMAO The biggest shock of them all. Morgan or Jerry Jacks. Or Dr. Rolf crossed over from Days and gave his sister Liesel his life giving serum to revive Faison and Helena.

FINALLY !!
that’s all I got-
Finally ..

Who is Bead pr do you mean Brad???

kinda looks good

I’am so sick of Neill why she just doesn’t tell everyone about Wiley begin Michael and her son and what makes Neill think Willow is scared of her you know quite people will hurt you Sasha is not the one I guess Neill is going to try her I hope Sasha kick her ass a shoot out on the water front Laura gets shot Jason and Sonny are trying to figure out who is coming after them after the shoot out mob war is on and popping now

Omg is Sacha the daughter of Faith Roscoe?? With Rick??? Is Faith back????

She better not be! I’m getting really tired of these escapes from Hell!

This show has done such a great turn around!! The promo is outstanding!! Getting back to its roots and core families. The production has been outstanding and love their use of veterans. That Nikolas recast is so good and you can’t go wrong with that stellar cast of veterans bringing it everyday!! Other shows (hint: Days of Our Lives) need to pay attention!

loving GH right now, but have since early 80s , well except about between 2011 – 2016, GH was a soap of a soap, if that makes sense, there was no dialoge, all fluff, and didnt enjoy ron c ‘s writing, probaly a better fit for days style, not GH. I do believe shelley Altman and Jean Pasenette had alot of work on there hands but did steer GH back in a good direction, yet with Chris van etten and dan o’connor at the helm GH is doing great, the heart is there and it’s got a spark back to it. keep it up GH,oh and abc would be smart to keep promoting and investing in its flagship soap especially whe its sailing so greatly.

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.

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.

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.
