Fans of General Hospital, always love when James performs at the Nurses Ball’ but now here, Stuart delivers several original songs with his unique vocal style that make it unmistakable JPS.
Check out a preview of the album below.
Now, let us know if you will be adding “Clean Slate” to your playlists and more via the comment section below.
I have to say, they have found the perfect screen partner for Finola Hughes. They definitely have chemistry. He’s a very good singer too!
They deleted my previous comment wishing J.P.S well on his new album, but also warning him off Anna. She’s a very nice person but her relationships have not worked out so well.
I wish I DID like this pairing, Violet, but I just don’t feel it. I liked Valentin with Nina and that’s about it. With Anna, he seems like a high school science geek drooling over the head cheerleader. It’s not a good look.

I agree, that’s why I was warning him off Anna. As I said, she’s a nice person but has that black widow spider vibe going and we all know what they do to their mate. Actually, I can’t see him with anyone but Nina. I also can’t wait to see that whole mess explode, and hopefully Valentin sees Sonny in N.Y and they all come back to P.C Iam sure a lot of us will be dissappointed who ends up with whom.
Violet and Soaphound…I figure Anna and especially Valentin can get caught up in the moment and have temporary romantic feelings. And like Soaphound said, he may be acting out on his unfulfilled romance with Anna way back when. But I can only see Anna with Duke or Robert, and Valentin with Nina. As for Nina, she’s hop skipped around since coming to Port Charles, never settling long term with any one guy. Strangely I like her with “Mike,” but this will be doomed by her lie of omission when Sonny gets his memory back. And for Sonny, of course the Carly/Jason drama waiting for him when he gets back home. But who knows… maybe he will remember he was a better and happier man as Mike with Phyliss and Lenny as true friends, and forgive Nina. Can he incorporate Mike and bad boy Sonny together? Jason will go back to Brit. And Carly…I don’t care.

I have mixed feelings concerning Valentin.I like him sometimes and others, not so much, depending on what he’s up to. Iam kind of liking him and Brook Lynn now,and waiting for how terrible it will be when he finds out that baby is not his.I do not like he and Anna as a couple.
Oh Rose, can’t you just hear Carly’s clumping shoes when she confronts Nina? And then she’ll proceed to ban her from ever seeing Wiley again. No doubt Nina will then need to get the courts involved. Such drama! I’m so fed up with this stupid “secret” of why Carly and Jason are getting hitched. Spinelli can figure it out but Michael, Jax, Josslyn, Monica, Britt, and especially Super Sleuth Sam are clueless. Right.
I suspect this album isn’t the only way old Val has been keeping busy lately. I think he’s the one who took Heiny’s body out of the freezer & stashed it somewhere.
Val was completely in charge of the Cassadine “empire” for a few years, while Nikolas was playing dead (and before he found out he wasn’t Mikkos’ kid after all). During that time, I’m sure he read up on all of Helena’s secret projects over the years, which would have included the not-so-secret basement laboratory at GH.
Val was obviously very suspicious about what Heiny was up to, during his last weeks up there on your side of Earth’s crust, and he seemed to be hanging around GH during a lot of that time, while “coincidentally” you have a patient (Chase) with some bizzare “mystery illness”. Val – as both a former spy and as a Helena offspring – knows something is up with that! Perhaps he might have even assumed Heiny was using the basement lab himself. Which wouldn’t have been out of the question, since he has a track record of doing business with Helena in the past. Given the level of dust & cobwebs in the basement, this would prove to be a false assumption, of course. But there’s still a working freezer down there….. now what could that be used for?
And of course, should Heiny suddenly disappear from the planet, Val might think Anna was resposnible for his disappearance. So when he removed Heiny’s body from the freezer, he did so, believing he was “protecting” Anna. Will he admit to her that he has the body, once he realizes she had nothing to do with Heiny’s death??
Love your theory but I always thought those freezers could not be opened from the inside.
Well, now that you mention it, I never saw anybody lock or unlock the freezer with a key, so it might not have ever been locked. But no, Heiny is still in Hell, so his body didn’t get up out of the freezer and walk away.
Val acted liked he was totally shocked when Anna told him the story, so maybe it wasn’t him – as he would have no reason to lie to Anna about it now. So if it wasn’t him, who would be likely to mess around with secret labs & dead bodies.
Faison & Helena are also both still dead and here in Hell, so it’s not them. Only two suspects seem likely, that being the case.
Liesel Obrecht – she might have taken Heiny’s body just to make sure he was dead, but also to do some of her own brand of mad scientist research on the corpse, thinking she could work on a cure for Huntington’s Disease, as Heiny would be a likely genetic match for Britch.
The other suspect would be Anna’s twin sister Alex. Most mortals assume she’s dead. I don’t, because she never came to Hell (and she definitely would not have gone the other direction) The cameras to the basement were off at the time, and if Alex was picked up on security video anywhere else in the hospital, nobody would question it, and just assume it was Anna, who seems to visit the building at least once a week, for any number of reasons.
How she would have removed Heiny from the basement… that’s a whole other story. But remember, there IS another way out of that lab. During the original lab story some 20 years ago, Stavros left through a trap door in the floor which Luke & the others who were after him assumed was some sort of “bottomless pit”. Since Stavros did end up as a popsicle again, it must have been a long way down. At least then. But if Helena could build the entire lab unseen directly underneath a busy hospital, then she (or somebody affiliated with her) might have just have easily built a new escape tunnel which connects with that trap door.
So whether it’s Liesl, Alex, or some unseen Cassadine family member, it’s possible that somebody took Heiny’s body out through a tunnel that’s underneath the sub basement. And where would such a tunnel go? Well, if anybody affiliated with the Cassadines built it, that would probably mean it joined up with those old catacombs that somehow manage to stay intact underneath whatever body of water it is that surrounds Spoon Island, and end somewhere right around the Windemere stables.
Nikolas is living in the old family homestead again, so you would think that he would notice if he had uninvited guests running around the estate…. or possibly taking up space in his own freezer, in Heiny’s case. But then, he’s been way too distracted worrying about his divorce and the fact that Shawn Butler is now out of prison & looking to nail the person who put him there…. which of course was Nick himself.
Satan, Wow,Wow and Wow you covered it all especially Alex. I never believed she died, and that was mostly because Anna was so adamant that she had killed her. So, my money is on her.

General Hospital fans took to social media following the airing of the Wednesday, October 21 episode of the ABC daytime drama series. In story, Molly (Kristen Vaganos) reveals to Alexis (Nancy Lee Grahn) that she has received an offer to join the top law firm in Chicago that practices civil law. She says it’s her dream job.
The problem Molly says is relocating from Port Charles and uprooting her life and being away from her mother, Scout and boyfriend Cody Bell (Josh Kelly). Wistful that she may lose another daughter to a long-distance situation (Kristina left a few months back to go to medical school in California), Alexis urged Molly to get Cody to go with her.
Molly still seemed concerned and has trouble committing to the idea. Alexis tells her to talk it over with Cody. Meanwhile, Cody asked Tracy (Jane Elliot) is he can have Thanksgiving off because he and Molly planned to spend Thanksgiving together with their families. After initially balking, Tracy agrees.

WILL MOLLY AND CODY HEAD TO CHI-TOWN?
Later, Cody shows up at Miller & Davis and the conversation turned to Thanksgiving dinner that Alexis is hosting. Molly and Cody asked her not to cook anything. Cody hugged Molly reassuring Alexis that he and Molly would take care of whatever was needed on Turkey Day.
So, this raises the question, why out of nowhere are we learning that Molly received an amazing law offer in Chicago, if the character was not being written out? If Molly leaves the canvas, would the character of Cody make his exit too?
Kristen Vaganos joined GH as a recast Molly Lansing-Davis back in September of 2023 and went on contract in August of 2024. Josh Kelly began playing Cody Bell back in June of 2022. Initial reports were that Kelly joined the show on contract and then as of June 2025 went on recurring status with the show per his choice.
Do you see a world where GH is writing out Molly and Cody? Would you be sad to see Kristen and Josh exit the soap opera? If this is not what is going on, is this just a plot point for some other story that is upcoming? Share your thoughts and theories via the comment section.
It’s been over two-years since his last appearance on General Hospital, now fan favorite Kin Shriner (Scott Baldwin) has taken to social media to share his thoughts on the casting of his grown-up TV daughter, Serena Baldwin now played by Kelly Kruger.
Kelly took over the role of Serena on-screen starting with the July 30, 2026 episode and has been ensconced in the storyline with her mother, Lucy Coe (Lynn Herring), in trying to win back full creative control of Deception for her.
In fact on the Monday, October 19 episode of the ABC soap opera, Serena tried to dupe Jason Morgan (Steve Burton) into signing over Michael’s (Rory Gibson) shares of the company. Jason caught on and wondered why she was doing this. She claimed she just wanted to help her mom gain creative control from Tracy (Jane Elliot) rather than full ownership, and begged Jason to keep quiet about it, which he agreed to for now.

WHERE IS SCOTT?
On Monday, Shriner also took to X and said, “I think Kelly Kruger is doing a great job on General Hospital, and she and Lynn Herring work well together.” That was followed by comments in his thread about the show needing to bring back Scott too.
In fact, back on August 25, Shriner also took to X with a reminder that Scott is still around and ready to come back to Port Charles, sharing, “Scotty Baldwin always fits in he just needs the right sport coat !!!!”
The last time Serena mentioned her father Scott was when Kruger made her debut and informed Lucy that her father was, “living his best life in Key West.” Meanwhile, Shriner posts on his X account continually and shared back on August 2, that it has been 49 years since he made his on-screen debut as then teenaged, Scotty Baldwin and thanked the fans for al the love and support.
So, now let us know, are you enjoying Kelly Kruger as Serena Baldwin? Do you want to see GH bring back Scott Baldwin into the story, so Serena has both her parents in Port Charles? Do you like the potential of Jason and Serena pairing? Weigh-in via the comment section below.
