GH’s Steve Burton Teases Upcoming Scenes with Jane Elliot, and Gets Emotional Remembering Those We Lost of the Quartermaine Family
Coming up, look for some fun scenes between Steve Burton (Jason Morgan) and Jane Elliot (Tracy Quartermaine) on General Hospital. According to Steve Burton on the latest episode of the Daily Drama podcast with his co-host with Bradford Anderson, he had a blast getting to mix-it up with the beloved soap vet.
In addition, Steve and Bradford took a few moments to recall wonderful moments with the Quartermaine family through the years, and those we have lost including: Stuart Damon (Alan), Bergen Williams (Alice) and John Ingle (Edward). As viewers know, Jason was born Jason Quartermaine, before the car crash that injured his brain where he later took on the name and more steely personality of Jason Morgan.
Steve previewed, “Me (Jason) and Tracy have some funny scenes, coming up … well, she’s funny. So, that’s a good spoiler right there.” He added, “Jane said, ‘I had so much fun doing scenes with you (last week).’ I go, “I know! It just reminds me of all the holidays we (Quartermaines) spent together in the foyer and in the den and all those scenes we did.”

The two-time Daytime Emmy-winner shared that he also told Jane, “I know you probably had a great time before I got here, but as a Quartermaine family together there are just so many memories.” While Jane replied, ‘That was definitely a special time for everybody.”

Later, Bradford got Steve a bit misty when he mentioned the names of his on-screen father, played by Stuart Damon and grandfather, John Ingle. “I looked up on You Tube the Jingle Jackal storyline, because I reference it in our holiday show coming up,” recounted Anderson. “I wanted to make sure I got my details right. There is a beautiful scene where Alan has basically past, but in the scenes, Tracy can still see him and they still bicker. Monica can’t see him, and with Tracy continuing to bicker with Alan, it really upsets Monica, because she is like, ‘Don’t play this game. This hurts me when you do this.’ Bergen Williams was there, who we lost as well, and of course, Jane was there, and John Ingle was there. It was just so cool to see that company.”
Are you looking forward to seeing the scenes between Jason and Tracy that Steve taped last week on GH? What are you favorite Quartermaine family memories as we head into Thanksgiving, where you that Turkey Day never goes off without a hitch … and some pizza! Comment below.
I love anything Quartermaine. I hope they show a flashback since Monica can’t be there.
Jane Elliot is the goat, she really knows how to play in scenes with others, she’s that good, so its fun to see her with anyone because if she likes them you see the fun nice banter and if she foe with them its fun to see her go at them with her sharp tongue. So I’ll take Jane Elliot with anyone because it will be good regardless..
I look forward to these scenes. I love Jane/Tracy. I also admire Steve’s respect for the show’s legacy actors. And anytime GH gives us comedy (like in its hey dey) I love it. Laughter is the best medicine.
I’m actually sick of the pizza thing. So old now- just have a damn turkey!
I agree with that! Let this be the year where they actually have a THANKSGIVING dinner, and not pizza!…. AGAIN!
I just read a Spoiler, that if it’s true , will never be another like it! Pizza, be damned!
Come on it’s called tradition
Other than the great actors the one thing that keeps me watching GH is the true history of the story lines that come out from time to time, the special being one of them. I look forward to it. Bradford, I think we need you to sing again… Any chance of another cd?
Since Jason appears to be moving back to the Q mansion after 28 years away, I’m thinking there’s going to be an epic PizzaGiving at Monica’s house (Alan gave it to her) this year!
House and stables a male stronghold at last and really looking forward to Sasha having to feed probable carnivores and teens! Be happy please
I always love anything that is a reminder of the illustrious past on GH. I’ll give Frank Valentini credit for doing an admirable job honoring the history of the show, and keeping it alive as much as he can since he’s been running the show. That certainly wasn’t done under the Jill Farren Phelps regime, to say the least.
Jane Elliot is an icon and a treasure. She’s one of the last links left to the old Quartermaines. I’m glad she’s still on the show regularly, still doing great work, and as lovely as ever. I hope she continues acting for as many more years as she wants. Looking forward to the scenes with Jane and Steve Burton.
Wouldn’t be Thanksgiving with out the pizza’s
It definitely would not be Thanksgiving at the Quartermaines w/o the pizzas! When my husband & I were empty nesters & moved to FL, there were a couple Thanksgivings when we didn’t want to cook the turkey, but now that we’re back & our son is coming over, it’s turkey time!
Shawn and Tiffany
Who?
Sean and Tiffany Donelly. They were on the show back in the Luke/Laura/Robert/Holly days. They were the 3rd couple during all of their adventures in the 80’s, lol!
He passed away a couple of years ago, and the woman who played Tiffany, is quite ill. That’s why they had her call on the phone, instead of showing up to the funeral in person. Sean Donelly’s real life daughter was there though. It was a nice tribute to him.
The favorite I love of the Q Family is the Thanksgiving after Edward dies and the voiceover of John Ingle singing and then the whole family starts singing and Edward and Lilah walk up the steps together. I know they were both stunt people, but it was a wonderful tribute of the Patriarch and Matriarch of the Quartermaine Family.
I remember that too. It was just lovely. One of the most poignant scenes ever on GH!
Tracy and Jason aunt and nephew together again
I’ve never seen interactions with Jason and Tracy. It should be fun
Took way too long. I’ve been hoping for a revival of the Qs for a long time. Though many are no longer with us, the writers need to start writing for the ones who are. I love that Jason’s moving back in. They need group scenes: Tracy, Ned, Jason, Lois who was a Q back in the day, Brook Lynn..bring back Dillon and AJ. Find a way!
The Jason/Tracy scenes should be enjoyable. Having him back in the house will be interesting. Others (mainly Gio) need to depart.
As for Thanksgiving, predict that Sasha prepares a great looking meal but then has her first bout of morning sickness over the turkey causing Ned to call the pizza parlor.
Maybe killing off Sam was the event need to restocking the Quartermaine mansion… and a way to also have Jason willingly move back in.
Yes they’ve already gotten storylines from Sam’s passing. I’m excited to see the Q’s rocking it all under 1 roof .
Well… I am eating my words a little after reading about Chad Duell
Seems they built a story out of their decision to fire Kelly Monaco. Kelly feels their decision to fire her was out of “retaliation” for behind-the-scenes issues she had with them since Billy Miller’s passing.
We’re losing too many vets regardless of whether it was their decision to exit or they were let go.
This is so sweet to see! My name is Lynda and I’m Bergen’s sister. I know her fans really loved big alice and I’m working on a book now a memoir about her life if anyone’s interested look for it next year! Thank you so much for including bergen in your story. ❤️
Best of luck with your book, Alice was a treasure!
Always a pleasure when any of the Q’s are on. Now, with the additional move-ins, I imagine the house is brimming to overflowing with Q’s and Q-adjacent folks running around there. Monica would be in her glory, as would Lila. Edward, not so much. LOL!
I used to know Jane Elliott when we both lived in New Jersey. We met at an association meeting that led us to do some traveling in the area together and we went to movies and we talked a lot. She helped me emotionally when I was going through a divorce. I moved to the PNW. She traveled back to Calif via a stay in Ashland, Oregon . Then she returned to General Hospital and continued her reign as Tracey Q. I have not watched the show, but love her as a person.
Well, Lucky you! I didn’t care for her caustic and uppity airs, when I first started watching, but have grown to appreciate her work more, and now enjoy most of her scenes.
It’s always good to hear that the actor behind the character is a decent, intelligent, person. Because of social media we gèt to see the actors as themselves, and many times they’re unlikeable. You have to really suspend your disbelief when watching a show or film to not let your dislike for the actor interfere with your love for a character. Hearing such a glowing opinion of Jane is is a win-win. I always loved Tracy and am so glad she was bored enuf in her retirement to miss GH and come back, lol. Fingers crossed she stays on…
Oh, am looking forward to these scenes. What a welcome relief and treat to see Jane and Steve in one scene!
I love Thanksgiving with the Qs they are the best drama when Thanksgiving they always have pizza never fails love them ❤️ Happy Thanksgiving GH have some turkey
I was there and oh how I couldn’t wait to watch with my mom and 3pl EST. We only had 1 TV so my brother and I would fight all the time. He wanted to watch Batman and Beyond. Some many Friday cliffhangers…. I longed to one day be an actress and become Jason Morgan’s new love!!!! Happy Holidays all!!! Tameeka Williams NY
I am very happy to hear that Jane Elliott and Steve Burton have scenes together. With most of Quartermaine family deceased. It’s great that Tracy and Steve’s characters are finally together sharing scenes together. I can’t wait to see the episodes coming up. Thank you GH.
I’ve always wanted to have pizza on Thanksgiving because I don’t like turkey.
I love Tracey Q. Thanks for bringing her back. She’s as beautiful as ever and rocking her role. I am over the moon that Jason is back. I also love Carly, Sonny, Diane, Alexis, Maxie and Joclyn. Everyone who’s a part of their families makes the show ever lasting.

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.

Later, there is a small baggie containing three blue pills.

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.
