General Hospital
‘General Hospital’ Head Writers Speak on Collaboration: “We Work Daily to Earn and Maintain the Trust of our Audience and Colleagues”
It is more often than not, a stressful and at times, thankless job in the world of daytime dramas. The head writers are tasked to map out the long story of your favorite characters including their romances, the mysteries, the medical issues and more that all go into making what viewers and producers hope will be a well-rounded show that grips the audience and captures their attention and holds them there five days a week.
General Hospital is a juggernaut of a show, which now has spanned over 60 years, and is iconic in television history. As we begin 2025, it’s longtime writing veterans, Elizabeth Korte and Chris Van Etten, who are crafting the stories you see playing out each day in the town of Port Charles.
In a rare conversation, where they touch on their collaboration and the rigors of soap writing, Elizabeth and Chris spoke to TV Insider, on just how serious they take their responsibilities as head writers.

The duo expressed, “It’s an incredible responsibility. We must honor the show’s history and the audience’s love for it, as well as the work of all those who preceded us – all while creating new story to challenge and grow its characters. We’re privileged to write for such a talented cast, many of whom have embodied their roles for decades. It’s humbling. We work daily to earn and maintain the trust of our audience and colleagues.”
As to their current vision of GH, the scribe teams shared, it’s “volatile and sexy.” Korte, who has been with GH for over 30-plus years, creating story alongside Van Etten, “I could not ask for a better collaborator and writing partner than Chris, who brings so much creativity, enthusiasm, and experience to the task. I hope that my history with the show enables me to understand the characters, to hear their voices clearly, to honor their complex history, and to track off that history as we move them forward.”

The two shared that their favorite story highlights from 2024, which included the returns of: Jason, Lucas, Lucky, Ric and Lulu. Tragedies such as: Kristina’s fall and its aftermath, Sam’s death and its aftermath, Gregory’s death, plus all the drama with the Quartermaines. All that, in addition to: Bobbie’s memorial, Lulu reuniting with Laura, Finn’s spiral and redemption, expanding the Scorpio family and more.
As to how they work together in the creative process, and what happens when they might disagree on a direction of a character or story, Korte expressed, “We keep the atmosphere safe for voicing any idea, even the ludicrous ones. Sometimes when we rein it in, the ludicrous idea is the most exciting one. There are times when our ideas are in conflict; but in those circumstances we have space to talk it through and find common ground.”
So, are you hopeful for the direction of GH, as we lean into the new year under Elizabeth and Chris? Share your thoughts via the comment section below.
It’s time for more romance on the show. There isn’t a couple that has cheering power for the audience. I feel like the characters dance around each other and never go on a date. Carly/Brennon, Rick/Ava and Jordan/Isaiah come to mind. I’d love to see the writers cool down Lulu with all of the anger and appreciate Rocco, Tracy, Laura, etc. I am holding my breath for Cody/Lulu pairing.
Totally agree.
I agree with all that you said. Lulu is doing way to much for someone coming out of a coma. The previous Lulu was a much calming one.
I think so! But I’d love to see Drew and Ric go. Their characters do nothing.
Time for both Drew and Willow to move to DC permanently. Really dislike the direction these characters have taken. Mathieson commented that they will be the new “Luke and Laura”? I highly doubt it…
The “new Luke & Laura”, my pointy tailed ass! They aren’t even the “new Sonny & Emily”. Because as wrong as that pairing was, at least both characters were redeemable, once that sorry mess was over. I don’t see any salvaging of Hallmark Drew at this point, and Willow’s chances are getting worse every day she stands between Michael and his family.
Drew yes, but a Ric? That character has style and class and he can go toe to toe with Ava- no easy feat.
I have been watching this show since I was a kid . It’s the only show on tv I care to watch during the day.Please bring Michael back & let him and Willow work it out. I would also love to see Sonny. & Carly together again. It’s an amazing cast ! I suffer from Depression,Anxiety & PTSD . I don’t hardly leave my house so General Hospital is my escape to the real world.Thank you
Absolutely not on board with the direction of this show at all. And for them to grant this interview at this crucial moment when there is so much pushback regarding Sam and multiple other but no less glaring issues PLUS the looming behemoth of “Beyond the Gates”? It smacks of a desperate media salvage campaign. But the damage to the show is done. Not even Olivia Pope can paint this over. GH needs new writers and a new showrunner.
I don’t have problems with the writers, just needs them to take a hard look at the history of GH, it’s one of the longest daytime soaps that has fans sine their childhood and it’s generational. I started with my grandmother and I am in my 60s. The lane that GH is going down with the storyline of Port Charles nowadays is really unacceptable there is no interest to watch every day. Please get back to some decency with the writing. I love the show just not interested in what’s happening now with all the characters we tune in for each day.
Then don’t watch. It’s that simple. So tired of people constantly bitching about the writing, acting, stories ad nauseum. If you think you can do better, get a job writing for soaps.
And yup, you’re entitled to your opinion…this is mine.
THERE WAS TOO MUCH DEATH…….Drew has become despicable. I have many opinions,
but for another time.
Sheri, please stop telling loyal fans who love the show to stop watching. In so doing, you are promoting the cancellation of GH. This person is entitled to express her opinion about a show she has watched for decades without you snapping at her to stop watching. Honestly, the love it or leave it mantra is old, tiresome and counterproductive. Just stop.
I absolutely love the new Lulu, absolutely the best! Bring Luke back plz. Lucky needs a bigger role. Cyrus and Laura missed out. You should have let Laura love and bully him into a good guy!
I really miss Sam’s character and Dex had so many avenues to travel: Joss’ husband; back to Sonny’s world; find a family member. Overall, too much death for loved characters while actors were dying too (Bobby, Monica, Epiphany, Sasha’s husband). Thks..
Anxiously waiting to see Caryl and Jack Brennan. Wow, what a great addition to the show. Theve got good chemistry. Also glad to see Liz have some life to her again. She is an outstanding actress as well. Tone down Emma. She’s unpleasant to see. I believe young actress has talen but just a little harsh. Love GH for 60 years.
I totally agree
I applaude shaking things up, but reinventing character personalities seemjngly out of the blue or without provocation is bizarre. There’s been no devlopment of the characters to explain the shrill and nails on a chalk board behavior that’s been written for Kristina and Molly, and most recently Emma. It’s as if our viewing history and investment has been stolen or traded away. Brad is getting a nice arc that explains his shift in character. Nice to see the Qs being rebuilt. Would love to see the Webbers and Cassadines make a resurgence. Love in the afternoon. Would love to see some of it. Can Stella get a story line? Can Lucas?
If that’s the case, they’re not doing a very good job of it. This thought process of going with the most ludicrous story idea, not taking anything off the table and allowing actors to dictate storylines is what’s wrong with the writing on GH these days. It’s why storylines don’t make any sense and end up half-finished.
Drew/Willow are a perfect example of a storyline the fans absolutely hate. Both characters are detestable and not in a “love to hate them” kind of way like with Helena, Ava, or Ric. If they’d actually take responsibility for their actions instead of playing the victim and blaming Michael, it might be somewhat interesting.
The writing has to make sense, and it doesn’t right now. The Drew/Willow affair hasn’t been written nearly as well as Elizabeth and Nikolas’ affair was 15 years ago. The buildup to Willow’s infatuation with Drew that led to her kissing him behind Michael’s back for months was non-existent. The writing’s terrible, so the fallout from Drew/Willow has been more infuriating than entertaining.
The fallout from Elizabeth/Nikolas was worth it, because there was actual buildup, they took responsibility for their actions and were genuinely remorseful. It led to Elizabeth having a breakdown in the end. You have two very similar storylines 15 years apart, but only one of them was actually written well enough to be entertaining.
I agree 100%. Story is wack with Willow and Drew. Makes no sense. Very light entertainment. No true action. Dumbbbbbb move for writers. I’m ready to change soaps
Bye. You lived through the Ice Princess, Casey the alien, and many other ludicrous story lines. They were fun, and silly. You’ll live through this, which, btw, a lot of us ARE enjoying, or you’ll go somewhere else to complain.
LOL Good for you. It doesn’t mean anyone else has to agree. The writing for those storylines was actually good, so the silliness was entertaining. This storyline isn’t entertaining, because the writing is atrocious. A lot of you? LOL Ok, Frank.
The Ice Princess storyline was well written, and well acted. Sure it had some “sci-fi” elements, but it didn’t write half the cast hopelessly out of character for ridiculous reasons like the current writers are doing.
And the best thing that came from the Ice Princess thing? Mikkos Cassadine now makes the best air conditioning systems in Hell! My penthouse on the 666th floor of Beelzebub Towers wouldn’t be the same without him.
I agree with that assessment of Drew and willows affair, it felt fake. Also, where are the medical consultants for the show? They’re worried about micheals scars, which haven’t even formed yet! His other functions need to come first! And Lulu! Just recovered from surgery and 4 year long coma, and she is traipsing off to Europe to find her daughter. I know she’s concerned, but it’s unrealistic! Many parts are un realistic, and Drew has turned into such a slimebag
This is a joke. They’re destroying the show and that’s why they needed this interview. Sonny and Jason are completely watered down. Yet somehow lulu is the most combative recently. The entire show has been watered down. There isn’t a single strong couple on the show that’s a fan favorite. It’s almost like they’re trying to undo the entire shows history instead of preserving it. When you take the mob and crime out of port Charles, you might as well be in Genoa City. Just saying.
The writing on G.H. has gotten atrocious.
I think the soaps are going in the wrong direction. Replace Michael. Don’t send him off with death. It’s already ridiculous about Willow and Drew. Not a good match at all.
I agree with you about not killing Michael off, just replace him. I hate it that the writers wrote this storyline about Willow and Drew, after writing about him and Nina, her mother. But nonetheless I think it’s about to get juicy when Willow finds out. Now that’s going to be interesting.
Cody and Sasha need to discover they are NOT cousins and get back together. Nina has to tell Willow about her tryst with the Senator. Kristina’s fall was sad but such a shock to me. Great writing! I miss Gregory.
Want to see more of Chase and Brook Lyn
I am so disgusted with this show that I stopped watching 2 months ago.
The first thing was killing off the wonderful Kelly Monaco. What a mistake!
The second was the revisionist history of Sasha being Robert and Holly’s daughter.If this team knew anything about the show’s history they would have realized that this was not possible.We haven’t forgot that Sasha’s hair sample during the Cody parentage storyline did not show any Scorpio DNA.
The third thing was Lulu getting up after a 4 year coma and a fresh liver transplant to boot running around town just after awaking. This storyline is so incredibly medically inacurate to say the least. It really was an insult to the audience. She would have required months of very intense physical therapy just to learn how to walk again let alone being able to run around town immediately.
The final straw for me was Drew and Willow. Yuck!! Them being considered by some to be on their way to becoming the next Luke and Laura is just insane!!
I really believe GH is a sinking ship. At this point all that could get me to watch again would be a new head writing team. That is what they will need to save the show once it is competing with Beyond The Gates.
I have been watching since before Luke & Laura running home from school just to watch. Still watch to this day go to work and we discuss yesterdays episode.. Too many deaths and ending of characters. there are a lot of young people to keep the story lines going but Drew & willow was not one of them wondering which one is going to leave next. Sasha baby, Michael gone?
My co- workers and I don’t watch every day any more. SAD
Building on your point with the “expansion” of the Scorpio family. To gain Sasha and lose Robert is not an expansion. I miss the humor that the show used throw at us. The aging Robert Scorpio has become the cast curmudgeon, and TR is so adept at that comedic flair. Jane Elliott is as well, but the writers have written Tracy as the new Lila, and totally de-fanged what used to be a delightfully disruptive character. So much so that I left PC with Robert and Holly. I may peek back if/when they return.
After watching this week’s episodes, Tracy still has plenty of fighting spirit in her.
LMK when I can start watching again. 45 years and it became unwatchable in the last year. So glad I haven’t had to suffer through the Drew Willow thing.
Character development is people waking up from comas, the discovery of some long lost unknown child or a one night stand leading to pregnancy. Loved Nicholas Chavez, that scene at the Qi’s deserved an Emmy. But that was a great legacy character that should have been recast. Instead when they run out of ideas they will fish him and Esme out of the water and bring them back to life.
I think the show they envision they are writing and what’s playing out is completely different. 2024 they miss more then they had hits, I mean they got rid of Sam and for what? whatever they picture her death would bring is really not landing with viewers, It hard to put down here everything that was awful about GH in 2024, it was all to much, a lot of actors left and a lot of characters were recast, and comebacks were a miss in my opinion( Lucky was hard to watch and boring), and personality change with a new face(Emma), and coming to realize no matter whose playing LuLu she is F*cking annoying. Highlight were Jane Elliot as tracy, she could break your heart one minute and have u laughing your ass off the next, I’m glad Liz is on the radar with Rick and Lucky, although they need to bring back Jake. Another of my fave Anna, please don’t make her rely on Jason to much, I do like their friendship, but lets not have them hook up, and Jason doesn’t need to hook up with Sasha either, its gonna make him look stupid and like a hypocrite if he gets together with Sasha after Drew did the same with Willow. Then we’ll have to perv brothers that are more alike then they want to admit.
Waiting for Kristina to go into Sonny’s world. She would be awesome as a mafia princess
They totally need new writers and I mean new writers not the recycled ones! There’s a reason you let them go, don’t bring them back! I understand you can’t please everyone with your stories but these writers give the impression that they don’t care what viewers want, they write what they want! They need to comprehend the viewers are the ones that keep them on the air!
We listen and we don’t Judge.
They need to stop breaking couples up and killing off fan favorites.
Still mad about Dex and others which has colored my decision to watch the show.
It’s time to get back to a real soap opera. Some of GH is good but after killing Kelly Monaco (amongst others, like the irreplaceable Roger Howarth ) I’ve lost my taste for it. I want the GH of the Cassadines & Quartermaines. The Metro Court shooting (though they shouldn’t have killed Alan). I still watch but these particular writers being lauded for their writing skills is a joke.
Egad – the writers killed off the character of Sam McCall – not the actress Kelly Monaco. Howarth’s third character never caught on and the network would now allow Todd to return.
Agree totally on Alan’s unnecessary demise, but that was a different EP and writing team.
I’m afraid my idea will send the lynch mob after me for suggesting this, BUT, I think they have to let Monica go now that L.C is gone. There are so many possible S.Ls in the aftermath, her last wishes, her Will and who gets the house, Alan gave her. Does anyone agree?
I think the the powers-that-be were informed about Leslie Charleson’s worsening health and that her death was near, which is why they’ve been mentioning “Monica” and her failing health more often lately. I’m pretty sure “Monica” will pass in-story, and they will have a tribute to the character and the actress…
I’m willing to bet any number of souls that Monica’s memorial has already been scheduled, and it will be this year’s “anniversary” episode in April, since the writing is clearly pointing to her demise, as opposed to constantly claiming she’s “out of town at a medical conference”, which had been the previous excuse for her absence the last several years.
Where is Scotty Baldwin? It’s time for an explanation.
this is a joke right? They don’t pay any attention to fans/they don’t remember history/they change characters when they return, etc etc etc…..
The writers are lazy or incompetent. Perhaps they need to watch some k dramas to get their juices flowing. They have taken multi dimensional characters and made them cardboard figures. For example the Drew character has no redeeming features to humanize him. Do better or G H is toast.
These writers do nothing to support the fans. This is the biggest bunch of hogwash I ever read. They do the opposite of what they want. Korte writes her own fantasies out.
Willow and Drew the new Luke and Laura – not!!! Do something with this horrible storyline. Its disgusting. Nina needs to speak up sooner rather than later. Say something Michael. Love feisty Tracy, speaking her mind like no one else. Do right by Jason and get some romance going – not with Sasha! Sonny, Sonny mafia man. You’re losing it. You’re not running things like you used to. Lulu’s storyline is so unbelievable, it’s insulting, wasting Sam’s liver. Was she not in a coma 4 years?! Life went on w/o her. Deal with it. Sick of Brooklyn and Chase.
How will L. Charleston’s death be addressed? Miss her already.
Agree with a lot of your points, especially Drew’s proclamation of he and Willow being the new Luke and Laura.Would love to hear Genie Francis take on this garbage. I think Nina will speak up as a last resort, to “save” her daughter from Drew.Sonny is now dealing with his heart condition plus every thing else and will be greatly weakened. I’m not crazy about new Lulu’s SL either and don’t like that Sam’s life was wasted for Lulu’s craziness.I can’t stand Brooke and Chase either, should say Brooke really, Chase is o.k. Hope they deal with Monica’s death sooner than later, there is so much story potential there. Somehow , it didn’t seem right while L.C was still alive but now, it can be dealt with.
Yes, I agree ! More romance , less violence and hate. Loving Sonny and Natalia. Finally, a perfect fit for Natalia. Changing her into a caring person made a huge difference !! Also, looking forward ,maybe, to a Sasha and Jason love story !!!
Cannot really discuss the sad direction of the writing for GH. Unfortunately Beyond the Gates may sink this 60 year show. Hope not but Guiding Light will remain my favorite soap ever!
As a long-time viewer, I hope for less personal sniping, petty vendettas, fewer children (who are never seen), and constant adult partner swapping. I would like to see some longer story arcs like those that put General Hospital on the map. Some examples: The Prometheus Disc, The Susan Moore murder, The Mexican Treasure. These involved hospital personnel, PCPD, and WSB, and viewers couldn’t wait to tune in every day. I would also like to see some veteran GH actors, who return periodically, especially Robert and Holly, integrated as party of these story lines together with current GH actors.
I have an interesting storyline but a lot of fans won’t agree with it but I don’t care I like it and would like to see it happen. It involves Michael and Molly being an couple. Yes I know they’re cousins but they’re not blood related. I see potential sparks between them and believe they could be the next super couple in love. If the writers tell the story right based on love, deep connection, trust and friendship yes they could be it. Just an idea and I hope you consider it.

GENERAL HOSPITAL: Sonny Tells Dante, “I Don’t Want a Son Like You,” While Michael Tells Brook Lynn to Bide Her Time Till Chase and Willow Have an Affair
On the Thursday, October 1 episode of General Hospital, both Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard) and Michael Corinthos (Rory Gibson) had some things to say and what they had to say didn’t go over well with whom they were talking to!
Sonny had a confrontation with his son, Dante (Dominic Zamprogna), while Michael leveled with Brook Lynn (Amanda Setton) over Chase (Josh Swickard).
GH is setting up a scenario where everyone is going to make it look like Sonny was responsible for having Sidwell (Carlo Rota) beat up in Pentonville; while viewers already know Ava (Maura West) and Drew (Cameron Mathison) were behind it.
Courtesy/ABC
A VISIT WITH DAD
Now, Dante comes to Sonny’s house. He wants to know straight up from his dad if he ordered the attack at Pentonville. Sonny flatly denies any culpability or responsibility, but Dante refuses to believe him.
Dante informs Sonny he has video footage of Sully and Vito at the prison. Sonny explains to Dante he doesn’t know why Sully beat up both Curtis and Dante. Things escalated when Sonny was deeply hurt that Dante refused to believe him. Dante says he was disappointed that his father didn’t respect him enough to be truthful with him!
Sonny asks Dante to consider that he was being set up. He says all he did was to tell Vito to instruct Sully to keep a watchful eye on Sidwell, not to harm him. No matter what Sonny said, Dante continued hammering him with how he knew deep down, even though he said he left the mob, he had to finish off Sidwell for himself.
Next, Sonny explains everything he has ever done was to provide for and to protect his family. Dante fired back that he doesn’t want to deal anymore with Sonny’s half-baked truths. As the two men argue, Gio (Giovanni Mazza) shows up at Sonny’s front door and overhears Sonny losing his temper and shouting at Dante, “Get out of my house! I don’t want a son like you!” The scenes featured an excellent performance by Maurice Benard.

MICHAEL THE MANIPULATOR
While this is going down, outside the Quartermaine boathouse, Brook Lynn opens up to Michael about living at the Q’s with Chase being there, since he only came back due to legal advice from his lawyer, Monet Mitchell (Blythe Howard).
Brook Lynn questioned whether they should get legally separate. Michael insisted that would be a big mistake. When she asks why, Michael tells Brook Lynn to bide her time until Chase and Willow (Katelyn MacMullen) have an affair; then she’d have full custody of Phoebe.
An angered Brook Lynn pushed Michael into the water and accuses him of moving Willow back into the gatehouse with intent on putting Chase and Willow in closer proximity and sacrificing Brook Lynn’s family in the process. As the two cousins bicker, Chase shows up asking Brook Lynn if she is OK. Michael punctuates their talk with “You know, I’m right.”
CURTIS FIGURES OUT A WAY TO GET OUT OF THE SLAMMER
At GH, Willow visits Curtis (Donnell Turner) in his hospital room. Curtis wants Willow to get him pardoned and keep him out of jail, and in return, he will help her nail Sonny.
Next, Willow tells Dr. Tristan Roberts (Dean Geyer) she wants Curtis held for observation for three more days. He agrees to do so under one condition, that she understands that he may need to call in a favor from a congresswoman.
So, what did you think of how Dante accused his father and refused to believe Sonny’s answers? Is this the end of their father and son relationship for good? Is Michael the most manipulative person of all, except for Willow? Do the two deserve each other? Do you want Chase and Willow to have an affair? And what of Curtis? Does he have many redeeming qualities left? Share your thoughts via the comment section, but first check out the talk Michael had with Brook Lynn.

GENERAL HOSPITAL: Ava and Drew Revealed to be Behind Framing Sonny for Sidwell’s Prison Beatdown
If you thought that the person responsible for the Pentonville brawl that saw Sidwell (Carlo Rota) and Curtis (Donnell Turner) taken to General Hospital was Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard) or even Sidwell himself, you were dead wrong! On the Wednesday, September 30 episode of GH, it turned out that the culprits were actually Ava (Maura West) and Drew (Cameron Mathison).
In story, Drew apparently bankrolled the attack on Sidwell and framing Sonny. He told Ava their planned worked (she came up with it!) but was horrified when Drew informed her that Curtis got caught in the crosshairs. Ava is visibly upset because of her longtime friendship with Curtis’ daughter, Trina Robinson (Tabyana Ali). Drew tried to make Ava see the bright side. Curtis was witness to it and his presence will cast doubt on Sonny’s claims to that he had gotten out of the mob and gone legit.
Later, Vito shows up at Drew’s. They informed him that his guy on the inside of the slammer made a big mistake by hurting their friend and ordered him to leave town.

BOATHOUSE BRAWL
In other major developments, Danny (Asher Antonyzyn) and Rocco (Finn Carr) have a blow out fight as Danny blames his “brother” for the reason Charlotte was sent off to boarding school.
Rocco told off Danny for Charlotte’s (Bluesy Burke) reckless behavior and he explains he had to protect his sister. He went in on Danny saying that his mother Lulu (Alexa Havins) has been right to send Charlotte to boarding school and far away from Danny.
However, Rocco went a bit too far when he shouted, “And if your mom was alive, she would send you away too!” Next, Danny punched out Rocco, leading to a terrible brawl. An angered Danny yells at Rocco to, “Stay away from me and everyone in my family. And don’t you ever mention my mom again!” Danny storms off.
Courtesy/ABC
Now alone outside the boathouse, Rocco flashes back to his first kiss with Scout (Kayden Brenna Tokarksi), hoping that his fight with Danny will not escalate and ruin their budding romance. Meanwhile, a bloodied-mouth Danny heads over to Sonny’s and Jason (Steve Burton) is there at the same time. He then admits that he has a bad fight with Rocco and they are both beaten up.
WILL SCOUT WISE UP?
At the end of the episode, Scout, who had a fight with Alexis (Nancy Lee Grahn) over Drew, and who keeps telling everyone how good a man her dad truly is, comes upon a suspicious scene.
Scout hides behind the wall outside Drew’s. She sees her dad, Ava and Vito talking. Next, Scout seems to overhear Vito assuring Drew and Ava that their business dealings are done, and he’ll be leaving Port Charles for good.
So, what did you think of the reveal that Ava and Drew were behind framing Sonny for the prison beatdown of Sidwell (and Curtis)? Do you think Danny and Rocco’s relationship can be repaired, or do you think the teenagers will continue to be at each other’s throats? Finally, do you hope Scout gets a clue and stops thinking her dad walks on air? Weigh-in via the comment section, but first check out how Ava and Drew conspired below.
