As the ABC daytime drama series, General Hospital, continues to be preempted by the impeachment hearings of President Donald Trump, and episodes are not being made available on any other platform at this time, two videos were posted in last 24 hours to the official General Hospital social media accounts.

To tide you over (while you are clamoring for all-new episodes of GH) the soap released an extended promo featuring the folks in Port Charles filled with lots of joy, hope, and love. It’s main message, “We have to lean into hope” – as the series tells us to “sit back, relax, and enjoy the ride.”

Take a look at some of the reunions, hugs, and special moments featuring the Q’s, Corinthos, Cassadine and other clans in the promo below.

In addition, Finola Hughes (Anna) and Michael Easton (Finn) along with Jophielle Love (Violet) were featured in another video, where the key messaging to fans is that they are currently taping all-new episodes of GH, and that viewers should keep tuned ans posted to GH’s social channels for updates on when new episodes of GH will return.

As of late, GH has been on the upswing in the ratings, too. So, it’s always frustrating for everyone when weeks of preemptions hit the daytime viewers experience to enjoy the on-going stories of the soaps.

Let us know … your favorite moment in the GH promo … your hope for the return of all-new episodes soon, and what you hope happens next for the characters you love in Port Charles, via the comment section.

Jason Loves GH

I love this promo. It showcases the very best of General Hospital and is a testament to why I so love this legendary program. I’m happy that the show’s ratings are improving too. GH is really good right now. Long live General Hospital!!! 🙂

P.S. I enjoy it when the vintage/former opening credits are shown. It’s a nice piece of nostalgia.

Lean into hope that Peter will get his pink slip. What a useless, propped up character.

Since O’Connor took over as co-head writer, all storylines are moving along quickly, except Peter’s.

Beloved characters Anna and Maxie are not portrayed as the strong women they always have been. At least Robert and Jason haven’t drank the kook aid. Would be amusing if they have to team up with Liesl to finally bring Heinrich down.

ABC is really dropping the ball big time. They knew these impeachment hearings were coming for a long time. Everyone knew. They had plenty of time to figure something out when it came to airing General Hospital. For them to have no plan and to leave GH off the air for several weeks, a month, who knows how long, is just ridiculous. Put the episodes on overnight like they’ve done in the past, publicize it so people can update their DVR’s or whatever, put them up on the ABC website, put them up on Hulu, there any number of viable… Read more »

^^^^ this bears, mention;Nancy Lee Grahn AND Joe Flanagan. Hot enough to forget Alexis, no? if it brings Neil, who is the hottest MENtion, since James Patrick Stuart’ Valentin argh !!!! “taken” from ; DIRTY Laundry – “…It’s worth mentioning that Neil isn’t onscreen much and doesn’t seem to be a priority for General Hospital. There’s a chance that’ll change in 2020, but there’s also a chance they intend to scrap Neil and Alexis’ love story.” why would they do this ???? to torture us with scenes with her tired daughters as she will be WITHout ?

GENERAL HOSPITAL: Peter’s On Ice, But Is He “Dead” Dead?

June 17, 2021

Wednesday’s episode of General Hospital provided more to the back-story of what Finn (Michael Easton) and Elizabeth (Rebecca Herbst) did with Peter’s (Wes Ramsey) body after Finn tussled with the guy and Peter fell down the stairwell and hitting his head on the wall, to his supposed death.

In story, Liz became worried when thinking back to how she suggested to Finn – and that they carried out – putting Peter’s body in a freezer in the sub-basement of the hospital.

As she recalls their plot (to keep Peter’s body from being discovered until they have time to move him permanently), Anna (Finola Hughes) is on the move of the hospital and uncovers a hidden service elevator that might just take her to the sub-basement, where she could discover Peter’s lifeless body.

But hold the phone! While we know it was revealed that Wes Ramsey departed GH, could it be that Anna could discover the freezer with no sign of Peter in it? Do you really think his reign of terror is over given that he is Cesar Faison’s bio-son?

Share your thoughts: Do you think Peter is really dead, or will the character come back to haunt everyone and try to get revenge on all who tried to stand in his way of Maxie and his child? Comment below.
