General Hospital
GENERAL HOSPITAL: "I Would Know You Anywhere" … Laura Wright & Steve Burton Serve Up Emotional On-Screen Reunion!

86
I think they just conceived a child…lol
Aha, Jimmy. My advice for Six is: STAY AWAY from Carly and Sonny, PLEASE!!
And, forget Sam….I like you just the way you are….she will just turn you into the boring, one-dimensional, she-( Medusa) turned-me-into-stone-again, with her inaudible, inane mumblings.
Turn into Hermes/Mercury and fly away into the arms of someone else.
But is he really Jason or the twin…what if he is someone else=an imposter???
HAHAHA, Jimh, YUP! Celia, Monotone Sam serves up the same scene whether she is comatose in a hospital bed or at a launch party-as boring as they come!
I amend that, Jimmy….I had not watched Carly and Jason interact before I posted. Actually, I think Carly and he belong together.
love your interpretation!
Honestly their chemistry is undeniable…some things never change!!!
Anyone who’s really familiar w/ Jason & Carly’s background story,
will say the same thing….the moment Jason told her to “take a deep
breath and count to 10”. My heart sang!!! He would always say that to
her. Jason like no other could reason with her, calm her, make her see
the light.
Hey, Fanny,
I am not familiar with Jason and Carly, but I sensed the chemistry; the connection between them, as soon as their eyes met …..in slow-mo, now ( lol) across the room.
I felt a shiver …..I get nothing when Sonny and Carly come together.
I do not like Carly, the character….but, I love Laura Wright …..she is a very sensuous woman—what a gift I had today—Burton and Laura fit like a glove……they should be paired. Imagine Sonny’s outrage?….
Sputtering and stuttering while having a conniption.
Personally, my favorite part of their conversation was when Carly attempted to regale “6” with tales of how Sonny seduced her away from Franco….and he promptly put an end to it by saying he didn’t want to hear about it!!!! Yeah, me, too!!!! I knew exactly how he felt!!!! (TMI….)
Well, Jimmy, Jason asvan imposter is a possibility. However, if his memories have been transmitted into his brain by Dr Klein, and/or Andre, Jason will be unaware of that fact.
Either Jasons could be an ‘imposter’, I think.
Dr. FrankenKlein and Patient6 just might be his monster…
You know what, Jimmy?….Jason2 is trying very hard to convince Sam he is the real Jason Morgan.
I saw an icy glare in his eyes, today, which I had never seen before ( Ahhh, Billy….such a good actor).
Has he fooled everyone?
I am so frustrated, I want to scream, Jimmy.
Well BM/ Jason said I would never leave your side even if Sonny told me too stay with him wear your high heeled boots just keep Liz out of it leave her alone
“…Ahhh, Billy….such a good actor ”
after all the introductions and welcome back… sans who “Sam” chooses
so be it
it’s on to the mob
WHO – what character will fly
rise above – the heralded one
this is the opportune time for @GH / TPTB to just let go and lease on life
Billy Miller
he is the reason i’m watching
WAIT – PLUS w/ Steve Burton
please some one – any one
tell me.. that the connection with Liz is undeniable
especially.. with .. the renewed HEART that his first born son – lil Jake – IS
palpitation
I keep thinking of The Terminator when Jason is on…i expected him to say,”You should had known..i be back!!!”….
“I’ll be back!!”…..
@Patrick.
Patrick….I, absolutely, agree with you. Anna and Finn create no BOOM…..nothing, niente, rien, nichts, nada.
Just as bland as Billy’s Jason and Sam . ( speaking of Jason2—could he be an ally of Klein and Andre?…. just a suspicion.)
Now, Laura and Kevin? The sexual undertones are screaming to be heard. Ha!! Love, love, love this couple.
Patient6 is Oliver’s father and Tamara Braun-Dr.Kim(ex Carly) is the mother!
You may be on to something, Jimmy. Six could, very well, be Oscar’s father….Andre did say that the Patient was out there thinking certain people were his family ( paraphrasing). Makes sense.
I assumed Tamara would be his mother and Wes or whoever of the Jasons Drew is, the fsther.
@jimh…..All I know is that the best reaction to “Jason’s” return—-at least, thus far—–has been Epiphany’s! Wasn’t she just priceless??? So nice they finally brought her out of storage for that momentous occasion!!!!
Im still wondering what happened to Alice???
Alice? Olivia Falconeri Quartermine vanquished her with all of the OTHER PEOPLE, TRADITIONS, AND ASSORTED MAINSTAYS that are House Quartermaine!!!!!!
Or…she was booted for budget.
🙁
It has been must see TV ! The writing and the performances have been top notch and I have to also include the Kevin and Laura engagement as well ! Genie Francis is still stunning !
I agree! I don’t remember when I’ve looked so forward to watching it every day!
John…I really, really liked the Laura/Kevin engagement interlude. Both looked “stunning.” Just the kind of romance many viewers like. Even Anna and Finn have some romantic potential, but also the adventure we associate with Ana and Robert. And agree the writing and performances have been worth waiting for. But I would hope guns become less of the GH story. Way too many in real life news everyday that are not being dealt with…don’t need them in our soaps. Especially one with a hospital name.
I do not think.. there is any chance of Anna and Dr. Finn –
even Mac telling Felicia – ” he’s an uptight guy”
just not any where near Anna personality. the knowing looks are not enough … they do not communicate on any level.
TRY AS THEY MIGHT @GH / TPTB
as they are doing with Roger Howarth; Michael Easton. it’s time to pull the plug
cya
Agree. The acting has been superb through out this whole crazy two Jason story. I am surprised how interested I really am in how the story is going to involve. Steve Burton’s return has been a plus for the show. His acting and just the emotion he shows in his eyes has been a stand-out.
The show is riveting to watch these days. After Jane Elliott left, until Steve Burton came back, GH seemed to be treading water. Even the storylines I’m not crazy about have some good elements as Maxie was finally back when she ripped into Amy.
Maxie finally had her cute back on –
this ask man landers thing… a spoof on and for ” the wooden dream boat” to showcase his finest stud
dag! it doesn’t matter… he’s a keeper.. and I know.. women will charge if he’s any less
I truly wish… @GH would spend the dime plus to get Ellie Trout back on the telee.. that’s where Nathan is so natural…. and dream boated extra
Ellie Trout completed his beefcake
A beautifully played scene; Genie was a complete knockout. And as one (!) person who happened to view that “other” wedding that Laura alluded to, I couldn’t help noticing the parallels: a lovely red velvet in the same color family as the dress Laura danced in at Wyndom’s department store, the “dance” she and Kevin had. I thought it was someone’s (maybe Genie’s?) to somehow pay homage to that iconic scene but to show that Laura is a not that same young woman as she was then–gave depth and poignancy to the scene. Loved it! And I long for more… Read more »
Nancy…Nice reminder about the red velvet. And I so agree it was great to see vintage, unhurried, dare i say “adult” courting…if there is such a thing anymore…leading up to the engagement scene. Sigh!
Nancy – i’m so w/ rose
“vintage, unhurried, “adult” courting ”
dashing beautiful alluring heart fly pulse whetting .. all the charge complete
I love these two… LOVE THEM
What an amazing Emmy performance Laura Wright! It was absolutely stellar. ” It’s know you anywhere.” What more could I say? Welcome back steve.
The best General Hospital in years.
Jason was always there for Sam, Sonny, Carly, Michael and Morgan. Stone Cold is back! I can’t wait for Sam to realize her Jason is back.
The acting is Emmy reels. Steve Burton is the best!
i have enjoyed it myself, although i’m not a fan of the original foursome,( carly,sonny, sam and jason) and how they were always so high and mighty w/ everyone else, its still a great storyline and i can’t wait for the way it will play out , its interesting to note that poor andrew/jaosn is quickly feeling left out by sonny and carly, and soon sam, he’s going to feel like everyone else feels when the holler foursome “reunite” but theres still more to come, i can’t wait for Liz part in this storyline especially given the fact she knows… Read more »
i’m going to shout from the mountain top
Liz and Drew
all the rest be damned
the current day Bonnie and Clyde and everything hotted out
this is passion trigger
what could : Sonny / Carly / Steve Burton / Michael Easton / Roger Howarth possible offer .. that includes @Michael and Nelle. so staid and lackey
When Burton said something like “there’s only one you”, I yelled at the screen, “there’s actually 4 Carlys”.
As emotional as they got, Carly reverted to typical pushy form coercing him to go see Sam at GH. In the car, she probably reminded him not to see his mother while he was there.
Still waiting for Burton’s character to ask “Where’s Connie?”
4 Carlys??
Even Jason has probably forgotten about the literal trainwreck that was Carly 3.0
Thank all that’s unholy that they pulled the plug on that mess and brought in Laura Wright, who has played the role well ever since. (As did SJB & TB, but I really didn’t think Claudia was necessary, and I’m not convinced that TB is going to work that great as Oscar’s mommy – and probably Drew’s long lost wife)
@Satan….I’ve never understood the romance some viewers seem to have with the character of Carly….I’ve always found her eminently unlikeable, regardless of her portrayer, although Laura Wright is the only one who has made her even occasionally bearable. The other two notable actresses who played the role both managed to turn me off big time, and, as such, bringing them back to the GH canvas in alternative guises has never seemed like a sensible prospect to me. Claudia was an ghastly disaster and I have no expectation that TB’s Dr. Nero will prove to be any more of a welcome… Read more »
I had forgotten about Connie! Well, not the character, but the connection between her and Jason. It will definitely be interesting to see Jason’s reaction to learning that Ava killed Connie and was partly responsible for Morgan’s death too. After her acts in Russia that helped save him, will Jason forgive her? Will he help Sonny and Carly reach forgiveness too?
and I am still waiting for the Burton character to ask,”Where’s AJ?”
Why would he? As far as he knows, AJ has been dead since the last time he was a short guy with dark hair.
The last Sean Kanan appearance didn’t begin until after Jason’s alleged “death” in 2012.
I’m sure eventually somebody will eventually mention it to him though. If they bring up the subject of what happened to Connie, it would be kind of hard NOT to mention AJ.
Actually, Burton’s character would think AJ died years ago when Billy Warlock left the show. Sean Kanan returned as AJ the week after Jason went into the harbor. Since we’ve never seen Billy Miller’s character mention AJ, I doubt Burton will.
AJ came back from the dead the day after olJason was shot on the pier by Faison (masked as Duke).
Yes, when? If?
She’s such a liar!
My comment got cut off.
I meant to say that Carly is a liar because Sonny tried to explain to her that it was Jason and he had been talking to him, but she was a doubting Thomas. She flat out believed him. Now, she says, the minute she saw him, blah blah blah. LOL!
I love the friendship. I think something is to be said about male-female platonic friends like this. My best friend is a guy too and it is like having another brother.
Hi, Chrystie, You’re right, of course…I thought the same thing. But, Carly had not seen Jason in person. It was a shock, I guess. Diane, Sonny and Carly are very adamant denying him….especially Carly. There was no doubt in her mind. And, as we saw today, Diane is not one to be easily fooled…there are always tell-tale signs about someone one knows well. Nonetheless, this is a soap and ‘facts’ may change at any given moment. Agreed, my friend….love Carly and Jason together….the relationship should go further than platonic. I see/read so much more in their look; their touch. And,… Read more »
Well, Laura hit it out of the park with the Burton return. No surprise there. What DID surprise me was Carly’s acknowledgement of how great Billy/Jason has been to them and how devoted he is to Sam. Quite a difference from that ungrateful Sonny, who seems ready to forget about Billy altogether. I’m waiting for him to try and put a hit on Billy/Jason any day now, with only Carly to stop him. I know I’m in a minority here, but I’m already re-bored with Mr. Burton’s limited bag of acting tricks, though the story does interest me, primarily because… Read more »
Being “Re-bored” is your right but you must be awfully hard to please! Steve has done an amazingly emotional job!
You may be right Timm. We all have our faves. And I admit some of my frustration with the powers that be may unfairly trickle down. I just don’t connect much with Mr. Burton, but right now I’m so angry with Sonny and his treatment of new Jason that I’d take a full hour of old Jason instead of that ingrate Corinthos. I think the 2 Jasons should become friends (if not brothers) and kick Sonny to the curb! CHEERS, Timm.
Limited bag of acting tricks? How ridiculous. He has shown more range of emotion, more intensity even in the scenes when he was not talking than all the other big stars from other soaps combined. Burton is an actor who takes on a role, stays in character and commands attention. Miller has zero expressiveness in his face and garbles his words with a voice that is barely audible. Howarth just squints, makes the “I smell garbage” face, blinks, stutters and flails around. He’s a tick actor who chews the scenery and steps on other performers. The scenes with Carly were… Read more »
Soaphound : let’s bond and hand tricks out
I too fail to see the relevance of kick off and much ado about
this battle of wills between Jasons over Sam.. after all the shock absorbers fail
his eyes speak the same dramatic effort
Sonny and Carly are cray cray
this has got to stop
FOCUS on the rest of the denizen
so it’s said to be a 9 month penetration.. and 3 year contact … contract ?
Great performances as has been during this entire story. And to anyone who knew Jason when Steve Burton played him, it leaves no doubt that he is the Jason they’ve all known and loved. Yet, it’s so obvious that perhaps it’s not him. Two twins, same “before” face, same DNA, same memories. Yet, Billy’s Jason doesn’t act like the original Jason. Even to us viewers (who knew Jason before.) The question is, is there a Jason Morgan that we all knew who married Sam…but was always Drew? Or, did the experiments on one of them (and his memories ) only… Read more »
I am keenly back… watching Billy Miller performance every since; the Media Party. it’s a little tough watching him with Sam… like Sonny , these two drag watching his expression and body language as he’s told Sam that every one is believing SB IS Jason. i’m holding fast that Billy Miller launches himself OUT and , as we all know, BM fighting spirit will kudos , at last, that Billy Miller is getting material to let us know .. he’s not lost his skillset. mindset… dang ! when Sam awoke @hospital…. and their they were standing side by side… YIKES… Read more »
glad your enthusiasm is back, Patrick! 😉
Yes, Rebecca, I agree the story has been compelling and better than I anticipated. And thank you for highlighting my pet peeve — the cruel, ungrateful abandonment of Billy/Jason by Sonny. The way he just shrugged his pompous shoulders when Billy was begging for help finding Sam? Unforgivable! Even Patient 6 acknowledged that Billy is a victim also. But not Sonny! Let’s hope our Billy is treated fairly in coming storylines. And a bonus…that sexy Dr. Klein (Gene Farber). That’s one scientist I’d like to ‘experiment’ with.
Naughty, naughty, naughty, Soaphound. LOL.
Soaphound…you crack me up! You and Dr. Klein…he’s a cutie. Can act, too. But not sure we’ll be seeing much more of him. I completely agree with you as you know regarding Sonny’s dismissal of Billy aka Jason…especially after how many times he’s put his life on the line for him. But I do disagree with you regarding Steve Burton…I think he’s been superlative since he’s been back. I’ve been riveted and I’ve felt for both Jasons. I don’t like how Burton’s Jason is back in the Corinthos fold, though…for BOTH Jason’s to put their lives for Sonny/Carly is beyond… Read more »
“..And a bonus…that sexy Dr. Klein (Gene Farber). That’s one scientist I’d like to ‘experiment’ with. ”
I’m envious that you can say that with such relish
he’d be perfect for Anna…
it left me wondering
when both Dr. Klein and Andre were both adamant that this was a complete negligence from the get go
who will rise above this audacity
I VOTE Dr. Klein… he’s IT
He is not Jason, he is Stone Cold but not Jason, most likely Drew.
It has never been said the twins are identical, never.
And– they were seperated at birth and Heather sold one to the nurse.
((the DNA was switched by the people that had stone cold for 5yrs, of course))
At the end of 9 months it will be revealed that Franco is indeed a Quartermain twin as Heather has proclaimed him to be.. ahhh how sweet it will be 🙂
(( gotta love Heather and her notorious switcherooos ))
The Huge Earthshaking KAAABOOOM! promised will be– Franco Quartermain 🙂
Dragonshit….
Frodd isn’t a Quartermaine. It’s ridiculous enough that they call him a Baldwin. Lee was rolling over in his grave about that before he was even actually dead.
Thank you, Satan! (There are words I never thought I’d utter…..)
there is so much disconnect , no matter that they are brought in to prop.. this dullard conniption Ava and Franco.. are still in disconnect.. no matter that both of them are fully aware of what’s going on I hate that Roger Howarth is not written as strongly and astute as Todd form OLTL. why does he continually have to REEL with oddities and emotionally wrenched and no one cares ? outside of Liz.. she certainly doesn’t need this junk.. to be trapped to prop for Roger Howarth.. GH WRITERS STINK !!!! they will give Ava for the time being..… Read more »
The two Jasons make me crave Ben and Jerry’s ice cream, and I finally figured out why.
Jason Morgan’s nickname is Stonecold and Drew’s nickname is Chubby Bunny.
I think Laura Wright has sometimes been given very difficult material to play at times, and Sonny and Carly are not always likeable characters. That being said, this woman never phones it in! She always brings it – the full range of emotions and I teared up during this episode because it was honest, heartfelt, believable and authentic. Whether you prefer another actor in the role from the past or not, she is a soap veteran for a reason – she can act with the best of them! I am enjoying the show more than I thought I ever thought… Read more »
the full range of emotions – she does NOT possess.. anything of the like
@GH thinks they have the IT girl.. to trot out and speak with her presumed presence and almighty john deer tractor fully loaded with dung
I do not post here to criticize actors or other fans who disagree with me. You are entitled to your opinion but do it on your own – not a reply to my posts. Your negativity and silly John Deer metaphors are not needed.
I concur, Dan,
I am not a Carly fan by any stretch of the imagination but man, that Laura Wright always brings it. She has my utmost respect.
SOAP WATCHING DOESNT GET ANY BETTER THAN THIS! LAURA WRIGHT HAS BEEN TERRIFIC…I SEE ANOTHER EMMY IN HER FUTURE!
@GH stomped all over the Emmy process.. trying .. and failing.. in exasperation to finagle a rigged emmy reel.. and LOST ( with the death of Morgan )
this year is going to be Kassie DePaiva @DAYS
Steve Burton is Jason. Andre took his memories and put them into Billy Miller. I love Billy Miller , but there is only one Jason and Steve Burton proved it when he burst back into GH as no one else can do. The writing is fantastic and everyday leaves us waiting for the next one. Thank you GH writers and Frank V.
You know any of you Steve Burton naysayers who thought he was “Stone Cold” only, I hope you are impressed with Steve’s amazing performance since returning to GH. Case in point, if you watched Jason’s reaction when Carly told him Morgan was bi polar, you could see Steve show his character being taken back by the news and then those eyes sealed the scene. What an amazing job. He has made Carly express her admittance to being wrong, guilty and vulnerable with her feelings and not her usual shouting and snootiness! Great job by both actors!
You bet, T…….I am thoroughly impressed with Steve and his role. This story is sooooo unrealistic, it is better told on Mars….that’s how fantastical it is…but, Steve makes it believably real.
I am completely floored by his talent.
Right now, his is the only story which keeps me mesmerized.
Although this storyline is awesome and the writers are twisting and turning to make us think that the Jason car accident back in the 1900’s was when the switch took place, it’s not gonna change my mind the SB is the real deal. I get it. If they want to prolonge this story, they have to make everyone think it’s a possibility and piss you off. Kudos for that GH. BUT…….BM is Drew. Why? The real Jason don’t react like he does. BM acts like his brain is about to explode when he’s angry. Not to mention the dashboard head… Read more »
Darnell : thank you for sharing
if this storyline.. extradites Billy Miller OUT of the Corinthos’ Orbit.. it’s all I’ve asked for. he’s an incredible actor.. that @GH cannot write for ?
is this Shelley and Frank time for redemption ?
I realize that @GH at one time.. had HOT talent that the audience accepted.
I’m not going to sit here and drool and whet myself over :
Sonny / Carly / Steve Burton ?
seriously
GH showcase your talent.. the rest of the cast is ready to turn
There’s another take to this situation that can be explore red. Over the past few months, there’s been speculation about AMC character David Haywood coming to GH. AMC fans know that David performed similar experiments and would fit perfectly here. But James DePaiva character is a must go. This character is horrible and not even believable. GH need to turn him into a killer whose targets women with issues like Kiki due to mommie issues. And furthermore, Amy should go into a Fatal Attraction kind of thing with Nathan and Maxie.you’re on an upswing GH, keep it going!!!!!!!
@Darnell….I’ve long predicted that beneath Nurse Amy’s perturbingly perky exterior beats the heart of a bonafide psycho, so I’m with you all the way on the “Fatal Attraction” storyline suggestion. I also quite like your notion of the unsettlingly creepy Dr. Bensch as a serial killer, not for the least of reasons being that the GH canvas needs an efficient manner in which to clear the decks of its many annoying newbie femmes, and this odd duck of a doctor would make a most compelling cleaner-upper!
Since Jason has no recollection of Robin post-lab explosion, we now know it was Drew that she broke out of Crichton-Clarke and they he was there for memory mapping cleanup and programming by Helena and Victor.
Oh Lordy the big liar Carly you were dying to marry Franco and it wasn’t because of Jason. I know I am not going to be able to stand it this constant laying all over Jason. Sam even if BM is not the true Jason stay with him because the other one is more in in love with Sonny & Carly then he ever was with you. Ugh!
Carly having anything to do with Frodd was completely out of character. It was also ridiculous to pair her up with Todd Manning before they had to change his name for legal reasons, but even more so when we were supposed to believe that Todd had become the serial killer who arranged the prison rape of Carly’s son and terrorized her friends Jason & Sam (among his many other crimes). Carly would never have anything to do with that person… It was all about ReRon & his vanity compelling him to tie his OLTL pets to core GH characters, even… Read more »
ahahhahaha!!! “dragonshit?” never heard that one. I LIKE it! lol… Roger as Casey the alien. Again…points to you! 🙂 Howeva…I’ve said it before. I like Roger as Franco. I don’t even think of James Franco’s Franco because he’s become such a different character. As for Carly, you’re right. They did have to tie in the characters…but..since she DID fall for him and he DID save her life and loved her to pieces and was nothing but good to her…which she repaid him by cheating on him…it is beyond ludicrous that she has amnesia about all that and paints him as… Read more »
That pissed me off, too, k/kay! On the one hand, Carly DID get close to Franco when she thought he was Jason’s twin. I do remember that. But she always really fell in love with him! She believed that his dangerous actions were because of the tumor and she defended him against anyone who didn’t believe it! He also risked his life to save her when psycho Heather kidnapped her! Sonny didn’t lift a finger to find her. It was Franco who was frantic, it was Franco who wouldn’t give up searching for her and it was Franco who found… Read more »
second sentence: always should be “also”
salute.. because I’ve always said.. aint nothing wrong with a discerning eye to eye
this fait ac·com·pli is just that… after all the climax
this show is right back @ Sonny and Carly with dead Michael
Both guys are Jason Morgan, in the way they’ve both lived in Port Chuck as Jason Morgan, one for real and the other brainwashed by Maddox and Helena Cassadine. (Burton) This guy grew up with Betsy and Franco as Drew until the pushing down the stairs bit (bet it was Drew who pushed Franco, probably caused the tumor) . When the real Jason was i the car accident with AJ, the switch was made. Now Jason conveniently didnt remember who he was, who anyone else was, was was out of sorts with his Quartermaine family, joined Sonny and became a… Read more »
