GENERAL HOSPITAL: Who Had the Best and the Worst Valentine’s Day in Port Charles?
The Tuesday, February 18th episode of General Hospital turned out to be the soap opera’s Valentine’s Day episode where lovebirds and potential match-ups collided or celebrated mostly at the Savoy Nightclub, while a few other duo’s celebrated much differently.
First, Maxie the Matchmaker went south, when Spinelli (Bradford Anderson) takes her place to handle the blind date set-up for Lucas (Van Hansis) with model Gunther Erikson. The two men sit and talk, but Lucas realizes he is not ready to date. Gunther gives him his phone number to call him when he’s ready. After Gunther exits, Lucas utters, “What’s wrong with me?” Eventually, he winds up sitting with his ex Brad Cooper (Parry Shen), which is exactly what Spinelli and Maxie didn’t want to happen.
Brennan (Chris McKenna) comes to see Carly (Laura Wright) with flowers in hand for Valentine’s Day, only Carly’s sink goes berserk (of course!). Jack showcases his “plumbing” prowess to her and fixes the leak, but not till (of course!) his shirt gets soaking wet. Jack says his father was a plumber, Carly is intrigued because she thought he must come from a long line of super spies. Eventually, things get even more flirty between the two.

At Liz’s (Rebecca Herbst) house, Lucky shows up (today being played by Guy Wilson) to spend some time with his ex, when Aiden (Colin Cassidy) and his boyfriend, Tobias (Charlie Besso) arrive. Everyone admires the Valentine’s cake Aiden made. Tobias is introduced to Lucky. The two are heading out to the Valentine’s night skating party. Before they leave, Aiden asks to speak to his mom. He asks her if she needs them to stay to “chaperone” her and Lucky. She thanks her very thoughtful son, but tells him all is OK and she is looking forward to spending some time with Lucky.
Felicia (Kristina Wagner) is tending to Mac’s (John J. York) headache, and they discuss Sasha’s choices, and in the end celebrate their love, while at the Savoy, Kai (Jen Austin Austrup) and Trina (Tabyana Ali) have a date. Kai tells her he knows some people to get them into such a hot spot of a club. Trina laughs and says she knows the owner, her dad! Kai is stunned as Curtis (Donnell Turner) and Portia (Brook Kerr) wave to them from the bar area.

The Savoy scene is juxtaposed with the Port Charles PCPD interrogation room where Anna (Finola Hughes) tells Jason (Steve Burton) she is getting an arrest warrant for Cyrus Renault (Jeff Kober) tonight and to please let her handle this and to bring him in. She begs him to not go after Cyrus before she has a chance to do her job. Jason, who is still is reprimanded in handcuffs by Anna, listens to everything she has to say, and the two tell each other how they are now friends, and everyone knows it. Jason tells Anna that of everyone she knows she gets him and Anna says they are very much alike. OK, do we not want Jason and Anna to get together at this point, or what? Things get tense, when Anna gets a call and can’t get the warrant for Renault’s arrest till the morning. Will Jason go after the guy even though Anna begged h
Lulu (Alexa Havins) and Dante (Dominic Zamprogna) are at the Quartermaine kitchen where she has a box of Rocco’s favorite donuts from Eckerts in a box with a card for her son. Dante tells her Rocco has plans tonight, which dovetails into a discussion of how Lulu feels she is a complete failure of a mother, and how she focused so much on finding her daughter, Charlotte, she ignored Rocco. Later, the two have a “cute” cupcake moment where you can see that their is still an undeniable spark between them, but will either of them act on it?

In the grand finale, Chase (Josh Swickard) and Brook Lynn (Amanda Setton) arrive at the Savoy, little does she know he has a major surprise for her. When it’s time for the musical act to take the stage, it’s Chase who gets up in front of the crowd backed by the band and performs his love song to Brook Lynn, “Stay.” Brook Lynn is so touched, as Chase’s performance plays over a montage of all the highlighted couples throughout the show. The episode comes to a conclusion with a knock at Liz’s front door. Thinking it’s Lucky. who has come back for the piece of cake she prepared for him, she is stunned when she opens it and Cyrus Renault is standing there. We fade to black.
So, who do you think had the best and worst Valentine’s Day from the couples noted above? Who are your rooting for to become a bonafide love match on the show? Weigh-in via the comment section below. But first, in case you missed it, check out some of the moments between Dante and Lulu.
I was happy to see Chase sing and show his love for Brooklyn. It was great too see him so in love and not living life upset that he cannot father a child.
Spoke too soon…as the next episode had Chase sadly telling Dante…
I really hate to see people make the same mistakes over and over and over again. That said, I truly hope TPTB are not planning to re-couple Elizabeth and Lucky. First, in all likelihood, history will repeat itself and Jonathan Jackson will leave the show once again and, therefore, Lucky will be off again. It’s just not worth the trouble. Plus Elizabeth has grown as a person and can take care of herself and her nearly adult children. It would be great for Elizabeth to have a love interest. But, with someone new.
Also, I hope they are not going to reunite Lucas with the scheming, lying lab tech. Been there, done that. Lucas deserves better.
Can we get consensus that a Lucas and Brad reunion is not what viewers want?
How is Lucas not ready to date after SIX YEARS??? If that’s the case, he’d better book an appointment with Kevin – oh wait, that might not be an option right now…
Geez, six years? Did he take a vow of celibacy or something?
Wait, what? No Ava & Ric in the episode? I’m one day behind… but this article doesn’t mentioned Ric & Ava…. Now that’s a couple I want to happen and for the long-haul. They have amaze chemistry and they’re both devious types yet have a heart of gold for their daughters.
This is the couple I rooting for!
For the long-haul. Their scenes are heaven, Maura and Ric play so well together. Ava needs love as does Ric… it will ground them. But they can still remain devious… together.
I’m very excited for the exploration for Ric and Ava and what that looks like… wait till Molly finds out! Wait til Sonny finds out!
Let the games begin!
#Ric&Ava #Ava&Ric
I agree. Ric and Ava are throwbacks to classic 1930 movies. They’re high brow, stylish and witty.
Ric and Ava certainly deserve each other.
luke jazz club was better the savoy back then the has real singers like bb king lukes was an amazing club.
Nice to see Chase sing, but what would be even nicer is if these people would sing a nice love song, that everyone knows.
That is a great question… I guess Chase could have covered All I Need. I wonder how Felica would have reacted. Personally, I think it would have been hilarious and wonderful all at the same time.
It would also be nice if Brook Lynn could close her mouth once in a while. The constant sighing and mouth breathing is getting on my nerves.
Soaps don’t have the budgets anymore for the licensing fees for popular music.
Even they would have recycled Firsco Jones ( Jack Wagner ) All I Need? I still think they missed out on a humorous moment…
Oh thanks, I always wondered why they don’t sing stuff, most people know, except for the previous Nurses Balls, where we heard the music we knew and loved performed by the cast. Especially loved Sonny and Mike.
Today Portia asked Curtis why Willow can’t see what a bad person Drew has become. It seems Willow worships Drew like a cult member. I fully expect to see her at one of Drew’s rallies with a red baseball cap that reads,” Make Port Charles Great Again.”
That’s hilarious, Harry!
OMG, wonderful!

GENERAL HOSPITAL: If Jason Leaves the Mob, What Will He Do Next?

As had been teased since Jason Morgan’s (Steve Burton) captivity by the WSB and his release on General Hospital, he is clearly having issues speaking about what happened to him, after he was dragged away from Port Charles when he took the fall for Rocco (Finn Carr) who shot WSB director Ross Cullum (Andrew Hawkes).
Now. as Jason tries to reacclimate to life back in Port Charles, he has already displayed that he wants to do better for his son, Danny (Asher Antonyzyn) and the people he loves and to show up for them.
In addition, things took a turn on the Friday, July 31 episode where after Sonny (Maurice Benard) questioned Jason if he was having an issue with Ric (Rick Hearst) working side by side with his half-brother, Jason had something to say.

An emotional Jason tells Sonny, “I can’t work for you anymore.” The moment left Sonny dumbfounded, and viewers won’t know the pick-up of the conversation till Monday’s August 3 episode of GH.
Could it be that this time Jason will cut ties with Sonny and the mob for good? If so, it would be the end of an era for Jason and Sonny, sort of the Batman and Robin of GH with a twist.
Previous teases from the GH co-head writing team of Chris Van Etten and Elizabeth Korte, and Burton himself on his podcast That’s Awesome ,seem to indicate there is a change coming for Jason that sends him off in a different path in his life.
However, we should learn Jason’s reasons shortly, and if Sonny can talk him back into the mob, or can just wish Jason the best and let him go. But now the question becomes, if Jason exits life as Sonny’s right hand man and henchman, what do you see him doing with his life? We do know that Jason is aware that Dr. Tristan Roberts (Dean Geyer) has tied to the WSB, since he escorted him to Port Charles via Jakarta on the plane which may be a clue.
Weigh-in below: Do you want Jason to go work for the Quartermaines and truly join the family in full? Do you see him doing something to help those in need, or do you see him going undercover with the WSB to expose some of the treacherous things they perpetrated on him and others, or do you see Jason doing something completely different with his life? If so, what? Let us know your hopes and thoughts for Jason in the comment section below.

GENERAL HOSPITAL: Ethan Lovett Hightails Out of the Country, Christian Howard Wraps His Stint

That was quick! Christian Howard, who now looks to have literally stepped in for Nathan Dean to wrap up a few episodes for the character of Ethan Lovett made a quick exit on Friday’s July 31 episode of General Hospital.
GH viewers were stunned earlier this week on the Monday, July 27 episode when a voiceover announcer shared that Christian Howard was now playing Ethan Lovett. Next, Ethan hits the sheets with Ava Jerome, played by three-time Daytime Emmy-winner, Maura West. All seemed to be moving forward when suddenly at the end of the Thursday, July 30 episode, Ethan spots newcomer Hudson (Troy Lennon Appel) at the Metro Court Pool, and makes a quick getaway.
Then, it’s revealed after packing his bags at Lulu’s (Alexa Havins) house, that out of nowhere, Ethan received a lead on an incredible opportunity so he has to say goodbye to Lulu and run out of town and was leaving Port Charles.

RUNNING OUT OF TOWN
In fact, Ethan was in such a hurry, he forgot to say goodbye to Ava who had been waiting for him at the Metro Court pool. There is clearly a connection to Hudson and baby Phoebe after Ethan spotted the guy, because Ethan also glanced over to the baby and Brook Lynn (Amanda Setton) at the Metro Court pool, before he ran to Lulu’s to pack his things. All of this points to Howard being an emergency recast for Dean.
It’s definitely been a week of change on-screen on the ABC soap with the news of Maxie, Spinelli, James, Georgie and Bailey all suddenly leaving Port Charles for Australia, after Spinelli got an offer he could not turn down.
That exit was written because Kirsten Storms is at this time,, and the very foreseeable future, not returning to General Hospital and is living in Tennessee. As she had documented via her Instagram stories and posts, she has been going through several personal ordeals. In addition to Storms, Ryan Paevey also exited the series earlier this month when he ended his run as Cassius Faison, while leaving the door open for his return down the line.
So, will newcomers Kelly Kruger (Serena Baldwin), Dean Geyer (Tristan Roberts) and Troy Lennon Appel fill the void of the multitude of exits? What are your theories on Christian Howard’s departure as Ethan Lovett on GH? Let us know via the comment section below.

‘Knots Landing’ Favorite Donna Mills Joins ‘OnlyFans’

Donna Mills, who at 85-years-old is still turning heads, booking film and TV roles and co-hosting the We’re Knot Done Yet podcast with her Knots Landing pals, Michele Lee (ex-Karen) and Joan Van Ark (ex-Valene), is now joining the world of Only Fans.
The news came Mills herself in a statement, where she shared to Variety, “I’ve always appreciated the incredible support and encouragement I’ve received from my fans over the years. Social media has been a wonderful way to stay connected, but I’m excited to join OnlyFans because it offers the opportunity for a more personal and direct connection.”
While OnlyFans is primarily known for its steamy content, Mills is taking a different approach, explaining that she will be “sharing moments from my daily life, behind-the-scenes glimpses, and engaging with fans in a more meaningful way. It’s simply another platform to spend quality time with the people who’ve supported me throughout my career while staying true to who I am.”

WHY DID DONNA MILLS JOIN OTHER CELEBRITIES ON ONLYFANS?
Andy Bachman, CEO Creators INC who presides over OnlyFans also shared in a statement, “This is not about changing who she is. It is about giving her longtime fans more access to the personality, style and behind-the-scenes moments they already love. Donna has always been fearless and ahead of her time. She told me, ‘YOLO — let’s do it,’ and that perfectly captures her attitude. She is approaching OnlyFans on her own terms and creating a space that feels authentic, personal and completely true to her.”
Mill’s move to OnlyFans comes on the heels of others in Hollywood who are pivoting to the platform not only for its revenur, but to control their own narrative of what they want put out into the world about themselves. One example is Shannon Elizabeth of American Pie and Scary Movie fame, who told Variety that since April she has earned more than $1.2 million in seven days via her OnlyFans account.

FROM THE CUL DE SAC AT SEAVIEW CIRCLE TO PORT CHARLES
While Donna Mills is best- known for her role as Abby Cunningham Ewing on Knots Landing from 1980-1989, 1993, she also won a Daytime Emmy for her role of Madeline Reeves on General Hospital. Mills played the evil mother to Nina Reeves (then Michelle Stafford) and sister to Liesl Obrecht (Kathleen Gati) from 2014-2015 and again in 2018.
The veteran actress also had a leading role in the soap opera, Love is a Many Splendored Thing, where she and GH’s late, great sister, Leslie Charleson (ex-Monica Quartermaine, GH) played sisters Laura and Iris Donnelly from 1967-1970. Mills began her soap career on The Secret Storm back in 1966.
So, what do you think of Donna Mills joining OnlyFans? Do you think the once exclusive provocative content platform, which is going more Hollywood, will ultimately be where big named celebrity post their own content? Share your thoughts via the comment section below, and in case you missed it, you can check out the Michael Fairman Channel’s most recent chat with Donna Mills from earlier this year and our livestream with Donna, Michele and Joan from 2025 below.
