So, do you think Ryan will finally get caught? Do you think before he does he will claim another victim? Share your thoughts via the comment section below.
As great as Jon is playing Ryan, we need to see Kevin plus, this story is making everyone look clueless. This would have worked better as a 6 to 8 week story.
The police and Laura know that Lulu was the victim of the serial killer and yet no one thinks of stationing in armed guard outside her hospital room?
I wish they would wrap up this story. I’ve been trying to stick it out but it’s actually getting annoying to watch. The police work is a joke and why isn’t there a guard outside of Lulu’s room? Please end this story!
Ryan’s storyline had so much potential. Unfortunately, others get more air-time than Felicia, etc. (Carly, Lulu, Peter)
He is going to get caught soon
We need to get Carly at Ferncliff with Laura and they find Kevin
But when they get him out, Ryan is gone
All I have to say is this storyline needs to end. It’s way over due time.
RIVETING STUFF
@Shelly – AND – Chris
you (s) “surprised” ME … YES ! YES ! YES !
Kevin is still BLIND !!! W – O – W
WOW .. hows this for dual role REAL !!!! for REEL.. this is top draw
NOW … hope beyond that Shelly and Chris take their time in fleshing out the interactions AS BROTHERS…
COULD ??? Ryan play this off… that “Kevin” walked in on “the attack” and get Lulu to be convinced it wasn’t “Ryan” ??? THIS IS THAT GOOD… TO DISTEND … OK ? AND this is @GH
Hats off to Jon Lindstrom… thee only thing going on in Port Charles.. and he’s EPIC
it’s just startling… AND it’s all because he doesn’t have the annoying Carly and Laura nipping at his heels… the actor is playing out stuff…. jeez louise get it Shelly and Chris. play stuff out…
for example.. even if we know that Sam married Shiloh father and he lost his inheritance… PLAY OUT THE GORGEOUS Shiloh… OK he’s a little staid… and if we have to wait over a year for “stuff” to play out… wink wink… now that the trigger shot – off – with little left to the imagination… we can now overlook Sam and Jason… oy ! this is going to be so annoying.. watching Kelly Monaco ‘ Sam be front and center… so ho hum… now that Spinelli is just a phone call away… and now Sonny will have time to do his interject… GOD it was so annoying watching Sonny and Laura play out the waiting game as Lulu is in surgery. he’s a little man of no consequence. nothing earnest ever plays out with Sonny and Carly. YOU(s) Shelly and Chris have written EVERY THING possible for this couple.. and nothing has truly worked… certainly not with the desired demographic… 18-49 women .
think about it… you have a budget constraint.. you have lack of imagination.. you focus entirely on these two.. and to no avail….. FOCUS .. on all the readily available cast !
Jon Lindstrom… is bringing you(s) bells and whistles… ring him up ! it’s just gobsmacking good stuff.. because he’s so handsome.. and to see him so lively enchanting even.. how his dark side and his direct approach.. ie: Laura.. and how easily he dismisses his agenda… and plays with Ava. dag! he rung up Anna and Robert. LOL
my one chief complaint… why does Finn have to be Anna lap dog… he’s the stink on shit … since when did this miracle cure doctor… become a WSB agent… helping with interrogation GOD it’s painful to state:
it’s just not the same giddy excitement that Anna brings any more. knowing she is stuck with Finn and Peter… just riles and is right up their in character assassination… KNOWING SHE’S STUCK W/ Michael Easton AND Wes Ramsey… is losing all enjoyment of Finola Hughes… PERIOD
I can’t wait to see the ratings of January 24, 2019. ie: any uptick having to do with Jason and Sam celebrating their love with their legion of fan
Hilarity ensue: Laura w/Lulu telling “Nurse”
Laura: “she got “really” upset”
Nurse: “Ok, I’m going to increase her pain meds”
laugh out loud… can we say opioid connect ? what better way for “Ryan” to shut her down… dependency hysteria
in the interim… now that the story is in full throttle… we must be able to see Kevin and Ryan dual role EPIC. flesh this out !
OKAY another Laura un momento
she’s with Ava in the hospital
Laura : “Thank you for checking on my daughter”
Ava: “I wouldn’t wish what happened to kiki on any one daughter, or their mother” as she also shared : “I’m glad your daughter was able to escape” then she walks. AS ONLY Maura West CAN DO : RING IT UP !!!! you feel sorry for Ava.. truly do.. because it was the one constant we loved about Ava… her motherly instinct with both Kiki and Avery… outside of the torried affair.. it was all that.
I cant exaggerate ^^^ this EPIC play w/thee Jon Lindstrom… when all the fans have at one time or another clamored for the rest of the cast to be featured.. and this one man show is a veteran. pull out all the stops does he not?
GOD – isn’t if fair to say : Shelly and Chris AND Jean, in the past HAVE RUNG OUT EVERY THING… out of Sonny and Carly ; Jason and Sam ; Michael ; Finn ; Franco ; Peter ?????? GOD it’s so tiresome to watch these same old same old lost so much luster ; lost so much care ; lost so much light. there’s no mindset for repeat …
@General Hospital has a huge cast to fill that one hour; 5 day a week for 52 weeks. it just boggles the mind that this is pure laziness . just no imagination.
FEATURE YOUR WHOLE CAST – PLEASE
hi Patrick..
Anna is too old for Fin..
She’s a grandma with a teenaged grandchild
also- too old for any agency as-
The FBI, CIA, MILITARY age limit to enter is 36 years of age..
and this WSB has senior citizens as their agents ahaaa!!
I really really want the dark players back, they are sorely needed.. GH has become excruciating dull, I want some hardcore drama !! like the old days, the 90’s ..
OMG Ryan is going to be hypnotizing Lulu and Franco. Certainly Jordan will want to be present, but will Ryan insist that there be no audience. Even if Ryan tries to have Franco “confess”, I have always heard a hypnotized person will never do something, they wouldn’t ordinairily do when not under a spell. Next few days should be pretty good. Too bad this is so boring to some people, I am enjoying it, but want it to be resolved soon, although I am not looking forward to the new SL wainting in the wings, with that freak Shiloh. He’s too creepy for me. He’s got Krissie mesmerized, which is his intention, I’m sure.

GENERAL HOSPITAL Preview: Carly and Lulu Make Plans to Rescue Their Children; Anna Looks Determined to Secure Her Freedom

This week on all-new episodes of General Hospital, the race is on! Can Lulu (Alexa Havins) and Dante (Dominic Zamprogna) get to Rocco (Finn Carr) and Britt (Kelly Thiebaud) in time to ensure their safety from Cullum (Andrew Hawkes)?

These questions may be answered, plus the return of the one and only Anna Devane (Finola Hughes) are on tap!
In the just released General Hospital spoilers video for the week of June 22-26, Lulu tells her mother, Laura (Genie Francis), “Dante and I have to get to Rocco before Cullum!” Meanwhile, Rocco (Finn Carr) looks angered and emotional as Britt walks through their cabin hideout. Does Rocco know his parents are on the way to find them, or has Cullum already tracked them down to the British Virgin Islands?
Back in Port Charles, Carly is informing Lucas that his niece, “is a WSB agent.” She knows Josslyn (Eden McCoy) is being held against her will at Wyndemere, and she has to find a way to get her out. Lucas agrees with Carly’s plan of, “We go in and we don’t leave without Josslyn!” Elsewhere, Josslyn is looking worried for her future as she is stuck in captivity thanks to Cassius, Cullum and Sidwell!

Maurice Benard Gives High Praise to ‘General Hospital’ Writers; Teases Upcoming Sonny Scenes with Anna, Jason, Justine and Ric

With the highly-anticipated returns of Finola Hughes (Anna Devane) on this week’s June 24 episode of General Hospital, Steve Burton’s (Jason Morgan) upcoming return on July 13, which also serves as the ABC daytime drama’s 16,000 episode, things are about to fire on all cylinders in the story, as noted today by series star, Maurice Benard (Sonny Corinthos).
On Father’s Day, the three-time Daytime Emmy-winning actor and mental health activist took to his Instagram and expressed in a video that he has some unbelievable upcoming senes with the aforementioned Burton and Hughes. Add to that Nazneen Contractor (Justine Turner) and Rick Hearst (Ric Lansing), where Benard gave credit where credit is due to the GH writing team, which is led by co-head writers, Elizabeth Korte and Chris Van Etten..
In this video, Benard said, “I just want to get on here and say that I did some work with Steve Burton, Finola Hughes, Rick Hearst, Nazneen Contractor, and they’re all just fantastic. Truly fantastic. But, I want to say the writing was just exceptional. It truly was. It was exceptional. So, thankful for that kind of writing. I know writers don’t get the credit a lot, but I just want to say to the General Hospital writing team, keep rolling!”
GENERAL HOSPITAL PREVIEW
So now the question becomes, with a major tease like that, what is about to go down between Sonny, Anna, Jason, Justine and Ric? Will we finally get to the end of the line for Sidwell (Carlo Rota), as previously teased by the GH co-head writers? Will we learn what happened to Jason and Anna, fully? Will Justine and Sonny becomes closer or stop their liaisons? And what of Ric? Will he be true blue to his brother or double-cross him? There is a lot at stake as we move further into the summer and one that looks like it could be one of the more exciting ones in years!
FINOLA HUGHES CONFIRMED AMAZING SCENES WITH MAURICE BENARD
As a punctuation point to his video, Benard also shared this written message in the post: “I just did some wonderful scenes with Steve Burton, Rick Hearst, Finola Hughes and Nazneen Contractor and and unbelievable writing, freaking amazing scenes that you will see in the near future on General Hospital.” In fact, Finola Hughes jumped in the post comment thread and responded, “I loved our scenes so much xxx”
Fans will most likely see all the scenes Benard referred to later in July, since GH tapes approximately six weeks ahead of air.
So, are you excited to see what Maurice is talking about? Are you hyped for what’s to come on GH? Any clue on what you think will go down between the main characters on the soap with the returns of Anna Devane and Jason Morgan to the mix? Weigh-in via the comment section below.

SINCE LEAVING GENERAL HOSPITAL
Previously, since his departure from the ABC soap opera. Chad starred alongside Zach Mendez in the world premiere of of Yum Yum at Annapolis, a new play written by Bruce Reisman. Duell last appeared on General Hospital on the January 21, 2025 episode.
The part was recast with Rory Gibson who debuted as the new Michael in May of 2025 during the Nurses’ Ball episodes and who has remained in the role since that time.
In an interview earlier this year on The Able Show, Duell said on his decision to exit the soap opera, “I was blessed to be part of that (show) for as long as I have, but what happens sometimes is if you’re doing the same thing, especially in a creative field for such a long time, you can get a little burnt out in a way. It can make you a little depressed, so that’s kind of what happened. On top of that, I had other things going on in my life at the time. My father passed away recently and I just needed a reset. So, I stepped away. A lot of times you have to go through some stuff to really step into that next level. I needed to kind of feel uncomfortable.”
So, what type of musical genre will Chad’s new song be? Country? Pop? Rock? Dance/Club? Something else? Let us know your thoughts via the comment section below, and if you are eager to hear the new single next week via the comment section below.
