General Hospital
GENERAL HOSPITAL PROMO: Someone is About To Come Face To Face With Their Past!
In this week’s promo for ABC’s General Hospital, you watch and hear “Patient Six” (Steve Burton) say, “Please help me get home to my family.”
And as viewers saw on last Friday’s Cliffhanger, the guy seems to have lost five years of his life, not realizing it was the year 2017!
In this teaser for the upcoming action, it appears that if Burton is the true Jason, when Billy Miller (Jason) and Kelly Monaco (Sam) take a trip, will it hold more than they bargained for?
Meanwhile, what will happen when the key people in “Patient Six’s” life realize he is alive ? Who will they believe is the real Jason? Those people include: Carly (Laura Wright), Sam (Kelly Monaco), Sonny (Maurice Benard), Monica (Leslie Charleson), Elizabeth (Rebecca Herbst).
Watch the promo after the jump, and then weigh-in how you think the next beat of the story will go down, and who do you think will actually be the first person from “Patient Six'” loved ones an friends to see him first? Let us know in the comment section below.
Drew may be a clone of the real Jason, and or vice versa.
I think when the two Jasons face each other, there may be an explosion of a different kind. Each of their memories will blend into one another’s.
Sam and Drew are going out of town and Jason is coming into town?
It looks like Jason is opening up the door to Alex’s house?
GH traditionally heats up a week BEFORE sweeps and then lulls us to sleep!
Lets hope this turns out much better than FLUKE!
don’t say “Fluke” three times, it will unleash more horror!
Thats funny!
We are truly blessed by our brilliant head writer Shelly Altman. She is such a gem for GH.
The door Jason is coming thru looks like Sonny’s patio door. I guarantee his first scene will be with MB his true love!!
i can see them running into each other’s arms in slow motion…lol
I fear you are correct, k/kay!….This is the seminal moment they (but not we….) have been waiting for since the day “Stonecold” was unceremoniously dumped from Pier 52…Sonny and Jason together again…at long last!!!!! (Please pass the sick bag….)
@Shay. I hear Burton & Jackson’s restaurant is closed supposedly moving to a different location?
Now, we’re talkin’ , Kay. You got that right.
How about to Port Charles, k/kay? The town could use a new eatery, not to mention, Lucky’s return! Oh, yeah!
Well, i doubt it will be Monica…
You are probably correct, jimh, but I wish it would be Monica! After all the heartache she has suffered by the loss of her “boys,” it would be a beautiful moment were she to be the first to discover that Jason has returned home to Port Charles and that she actually has twin stepsons to keep the Q dynasty alive!
She will probably find out OFF camera! This show doesnt know how to pull ANY heartstrings!
Would be nice but not with the current writing team…probably will be Sonny..Jason’s one and only love…however, it would be a nice surprise if i am wrong and it is Monica???
So far the two Jasons has been a sleeper..
Steve was brought back in a whimper.
He should have brought in with a BANG!
The story should have been high power from day one not as weak as it is.
it seems most are worn out waiting for something intense and intriguing to happen.
The huge build-up and what was delivered was a fail- snoor..
It was dragged out way too long and now many just don’t care who is whom; the thrill is gone. just worn out.
If this same story had been written under Guza we’d be on the edge of our sets !!
We would be excited for the ‘what’s next’ and we’d be watching with anticipation.!
Imaging what Guza, and others, what they would have and could have given us with this story and imaging that makes me sad to see how horribly dry and stale GH has become.
Carly
IF….. I F – if
GH has any smart left
they will let this be Leslie Charleson MOMENT in the spotlight… her marquee
Monica Quartermaine damned heart – break – spills
tears at her heart
with all the other quartermaine “gone” why shouldn’t GH capitalize on this and
go the mother / son route
doing this… WITHOUT sonny / carly / sam and even Liz knowing whats going on
hash this out
ALL OUT
enter Liz , as she goes and sees Monica at her manse
Looks like he’s walking in the patio door of Sonny’s house when he calls out “anybody home”. That probably means that either Sonny or Carly will be the first to see him. Michael might possibly be there. I doubt they will leave the first Port Charles sighting to a secondary character like Max or Milo.
I don’t follow Twitter, but apparently Steve has already mentioned working with Laura Wright again, so that would be a point in Carly’s favor.
THE – thing, that bothers me…. if Monica gets … her son back.. plus a twin… plus an older son, in Franco . WITH Ned@the manse.
won’t this be too much…. testosterone ? for me ? I don’t have enough endorphin
I NEED Skye Quartermaine to help me
GH – balance the Q. and hire Robin Christopher. let’s make this cat on a hot tin roof
that way… you can fire all the Corinthos clan and let’s watch them rot
whilst the cast as it were can find life
GH blows all the others away !
I wouldn’t go that far. I find GH boring as all heck.
I recommend anyone who had trouble falling asleep put on the other 3 soaps, Zzzzzzzzzzz
I don’t think he’s going to be revealed as Jason yet. That would be too easy
It looks like the door 2 Sonny’s house, I think it will b Carly he sees first, this is a great story so far, the writers are doing a really good job
I agree…I am enjoying SB’s stealth and story, so far. The downside is my ‘spending’ more time with St. Sonny and his sidekick, Carly.
Since Monica already had her “not-dead son walking through the door” moment with AJ, I doubt these writers will go there. It’s not Alexis’ house, as she was still in the lake house when SB/Jason left, so unfortunately it has to be Sonny.
I’m more interested in finding out what happened to Drew when Betsy said he supposedly died. I don’t think Helena had the forward thinking to take a 3-year old knowing he’d have killer instincts. Either Susan didn’t die at the hands of Crane Tolliver or perhaps she, too, had a twin, either of whom came to claim Drew from Betsy. Gail Ramsey hasn’t acted in 25 years, but it would be great to see her again as either Susan or her unbeknownst twin.
Could it be the balcony entrance at Sam’s? Makes more sense that Jason would wish to return to his wife and son first….(Yes, Steve, even before he goes to genuflect before the altar of St. Sonny!) As for “what happened to Drew?” Maybe Heather found someone else wishing to buy a little boy, so she absconded with the child in order to receive an additional payout. I never underestimate Ms. Webber’s greed and ingenuity when it comes to pulling off such capers! All I know is we need another Heather appearance to shed some light on this ongoing mystery! Paging Robin Mattson!
The split second Steve Burton rolled into the water that day I knew he’d be back. This is all very Todd Manning-esque.
“at the end of the day”
TPTB really care about fan tune in and neilson ratings
expletive
i’m not so far off track to insinuate the gall that muddles this show.. with overload on Sonny and Carly.. the dullard
if shelley and frank are on “THEIR” course
Steve Burton will run in to :
Maurice Benard.. yeah i’ll say the actors name who stinks .. as Sonny
will it be him ? who is an affront , to keep .. the focus of GH, his
and MB and GH trot out Laura Wright.. because she’s loud enough to bring their show an emmy ? are they that dingbat cray cray to sting the audience that much more ?
Carly is not meaningful enough to carry any more.
I’ve posted above.. that it had better be…. Monica and then Liz.. who will reel all the emotion
I’ll give GH 1 year before there is an R.I.P. next to it. Anna and Finn are a bore. It ‘s as though the writers don’t know what to do with them, and it shows. Lucas and Brad where “dropped like a hot potato !” Alexi, Ashley, and Watkins are being let go. Now, Jessica Tuck, another new face is coming to town. Pristina is the best story that GH had going. So what, Parker is NOT Kristina’s professor. They are 2 consenting adults. There is nothing wrong with this pairing. They have amazing chemistry. I know chemistry, I have been married to my amazing husband for 32 years !! However, It seems to be acceptable for a mob princess to have sex with a priest !! So sick of Carly and Sonny. Their relationship has been re-hashed so much, I can’t remeber if they are married. Valentin and Nina are nauseating. Now, Steve Burton has decided to honor us with his presence and TPTB are bowing to his every move !! Hopefully, Kristina and Parker will relocate to Genoa City !! Y & R knows how to write a love story.
I agree that Anna and Finn lack chemistry. Finola’s an excellent actress, but she seems to playing down in this storyline.
While it was a mistake to bump Watkins off contract, it appears he’s staying on recurring for a while. Ainsworth booked other tv/movie work, so she was not let go. Hopefully her career takes off, but she can always return. Without Kristina, there’s no need for Parker.

GENERAL HOSPITAL Preview: Serena Sets Her Sights on Michael; Jason’s Emotional Exit from the Mob
This week on all-new episodes of General Hospital, new and old motivations come into play with dangerous consequences. According to the just released GH video spoilers video for the week of August 3-7, a bailiff calls out, “All rise!”
Now it’s Isaiah (Sawandi Wilson) vs. Curtis (Donnell Turner), as the surgeon is suing the owner of the Savoy for assault that ruined is ability to operate. At the end of the day, which of these men has enough evidence against the other? Portia (Brook Kerr) is by Isaiah’s side, while Jordan (Tanisha Harper) is with Curtis.
Next, Lucy (Lynn Herring) has a plan to get the controlling shares of Deception away from Michael (Rory Gibson). She wants her daughter, Serena (Kelly Kruger) to seduce Michael. She tells her, “Pick out your most seductive suit.” Soon, we see Serena in her bathing suit at the Metro Court face to face with Michael.
Later, there is a small baggie containing three blue pills. Nina (Cynthia Watros) ask Willow (Katelyn MacMullen), “What did you do?” We also see Michael asking the same thing of Jacinda (Paige Herschell). Leading into this week, viewers know that Willow doesn’t want the former escort anywhere near her children, Amelia and Wiley. Is this how she stops her, or is Jacinda up to old tricks and wants to frame Willow? Remember when Jacindsa drugged Drew (Cameron Mathison)? Stay tuned.

Vincent Pastore of ‘Sopranos’ Fame and ‘General Hospital’s’ Maximus Giambetti Dies at 80
Vincent Pastore, best known for his memorable role as Salvatore “Big Pussy” Bonpensiero on HBO’s The Sopranos has passed away.
The veteran actor was found dead on August 1st in his home in the Bronx, New York. Pastore was 80-years-old. The cause of death is yet to be determined.
As well as his role on The Sopranos, many soap fans will recall he played multiple smaller roles on the beloved One Life to Live from 1995 and 2004. However, in 2008, he landed the short-term role as Maximus Giambetti on General Hospital.
PASTORE WANTED TO BE ON GENERAL HOSPITAL
Maximus was the mobster father of Sonny Corinthos’ (Maurice Benard) bodyguards: Max (Derk Cheetwood) and Milo (Drew Cheetwood)
According to Soap Opera Digest, Pastore told Soaps In Depth back in 2009, after appearing in a SOAPnet promotional campaign as a celebrity fan of General Hospital: “‘I’d love to be on the show. So they called up GH’s casting director (Mark Teschner) and Bobby (Robert Guza Jr. ex-head writer, GH) and they wrote me in!”
Pastore was a huge General Hospital fan from way back, who at one point told producers that he would watch the ABC soap opera while working in bars and nightclubs in the 70s and 80s.
Throughout his decades long career, Pastore appeared in films including: Goodfellas, Carlito’s Way and Men of Respect, The Jerky Boys: The Movie and the 1996 HBO TV movie Gotti.
In TV, besides The Sopranos, Pastore’s credits included: Law & Order, The Practice, Son of the Beach, Queens Supreme, Hawaii Five-0, Wu-Tang: An American Saga, plus the miniseries The Last Don II. Most recently, Vincent was a series regular on Gravesend and guest starred on Yellowjackets.
Pastore is survived by his daughter, Renee, son-in-law and granddaughter.
