This week’s promo for ABC’s General Hospital centers around Billy Miller’s character of “Jake” AKA Jason!

After being under mind control from Helena Cassadine (Constance Towers), it looks like “Jake” is determined to seek answers as to who he really is through any medical and psychological means necessary!

And in the stunner at the end of the teaser, it is Nikolas  (Tyler Christopher) who knows that “Jake” is really Jason! But what will he do with the information, if anything? Will he keep it to himself?  Will he use it to his advantage?

What do you think will happen to “Jake” AKA Jason after he goes through the treatments viewed in the promo after the jump?  Share your thoughts in the comment section.

Maybe Nik is forced by ‘Fluke the Kook’ to keep Jake/Jason’s true identity a secret…or thats not really Nik and its really Stravos Cassidine wearing a mask…lol

Between not knowing Flukes true identity and Jake not knowing his(probably not until May sweeps) i think im going to loose my mind which some believe i’ve done already…’Heather, im comin to join ya’…lol

jimh..
Jake will know he is Jason, soon..
I’m looking forward to the chaos that will create! it is the good part lol
I wonder which personality will be the reborn Jason?

I hope he will retakes his place in the Quartermaine family and slaps Michael to the wall 😉

You’d think with Patrick knowing the Cassidine took Robin to revive other Cassidines and Jason, Jakes mind control by Helene, Jake taking the phoenix figure and having visions of being in bed with Sam and knowing Jake had previous brain work, Patrick would use his own brain and realize that Jake was Jason…just a thought!!!

hi jihm..
noooo Patrick is not the chosen one to out Jason, I think Jake will find his own identity, he is the chosen one of the revele 🙂

Good one jihm (leave it to beaver)!!!

I think Patrick should realize Jake is Jason. Right, Jimh? It makes no sense to me that he would not.
Something else that does not sit well with me is the fact that suddenly, Fluke conveniently develops a split personality. I refuse to believe that this was already written in the stars. My intelligence, as yours, jimh, and, all our other fellow-posters’s intelligence will not be bruised. I feel as if My brain has been punched and knocked around here and there with the ridiculousness of it all.
So, what else is new? All other characters we have seen were figments of Luke’s imagination? Including Fluke? Are we yet to believe Fluke/Luke needs be be explained away because the Luke/Anthony is staying? Lordy Lord, I’m not even making any sense to myself.
Bottom lines or me, jimh? There is no way in the soap world that this trauma suffered by Luke as a child has been in the works. It is a last stab to end this fairytale with a bang. ……”ain’t” working for me. There is no bang to be had.

I just hope Nik tells Sam as soon as he finds out – Please don’t drag out this story

OMG…out of curiosity I checked to see what was running in the Ex-Katie/Queen Latifta hour since they had been cancelled. Now they are silly reality shows…one had the “hosts” with their computers in front of them looking up YouTube type story’s on this and that…you know the kind of thing news programs sometimes sign off on. Maybe they are fill-ins until something “better” comes along. But they solve one problem for the network, they are beyond inexpensive. And this is what we have eventually lost AMC and OLTL to.

That is depressing, Rose.
And Dr. Oz is now on the same time as GH in my neck of the woods. He used to be on at four and now that horrid TMZ is on its time slot.
Yes, how much money can it cost to basically hire people to read celebrity gossip stories? Oh and then there is my all time favorite~ Watch What Happens Live! This show consists of a bunch of people watching Youtubes and responding to them.

The programs I getting from 3-4 are back-to-back Right This Minute. Same premise as your Watch etc.

looks like he told carly and sam, unless that was just an edit to make us think that.

Edit, he keeps the info to himself for now.

whether Helena is “mind control” Nikolas… or …. he’s his own man… and has grown tired of being on the losing end of WOMEN… and turnabout is fair play… and he’s playing Helena for his own intent and purpose…..

Nikolas get’s ??? endless story for Tyler Christopher… let him corporate… chess piece with the mobs… foolery with the PCPD

it’s intriguing

although… if he’s stated… “no harm comes to my family” and Sam finds out he knew? and Liz doesn’t like the new Nik ?

still the best stuff TC Nik has had in a long long time

i’m in

I like Jake with Liz. They have good chemistry. Ric needs to go away and stay away. Liz never has a good sl anymore. I don’t get why they don’t like her over there. Remember when they were about to fire her but the fans revolted???

Madluv4 you, I agree. It’s not the actress’s fault that Liz does not have good story lines and they have her get pregnant from every man she meets and doesn’t use birth control. She was a stronger character when she was younger. Wish they would give her back the spark and story line.

LOVE Billy Miller in this new role of Jason! Miller is such a better actor! I wish Sonny would have met him maybe Sonny would have figured it out! LOL OR Spinelli!!!!

I really liked Steve B as Jason, so no complaints there. That said, Billy M has been strong in the role. He’s somehow captured Jason’s stoic nature and embued it with subtle emotions. He has chemistry with everyone on screen – he will be a powerhouse in this role!

I agree. Billy Miller has been great.

Yes, he has been very good and seems to get better every day. As tired as I am of the dreary and endless Fluke, Tony Geary interacting with Billy Miller in jail yesterday was somewhat interesting.
(I am trying here)

I’m with u suzanne ! Billy is so amazing he played his role of billy abbott on y&r to the best of his abiltiy ! I c another emmy in his possession for the role of jason morgan ! Luv u billy ur the bomb !

No, Nik won’t tell because I’m sure Helena will blackmail him. He won’t remember what he remembered as he was going under. Patrick won’t recognize him. Spinelli will.

The biggest complaints I see about Billy Miller’s Jake/Jason is that he’s boring. I love him but I actually understand what they’re saying-this man has been a victim w/no purpose for almost 6 months! 2 months would’ve been fine & I think that was their original plan, but as usual RC, who I do like most of the time, has dragggeeeddd it out again!

My fav scenes were when he slammed Carlos, slammed Patrick, sneaked around in Sam’s (his) home like a ninja & jumped the real server on the docks meant to work the Haunted Star party-why? He had a purpose, if though I hated the purposes & don’t want him to be a hitman!

Please stop making him an apologetic victim! Shot, frozen, brain-washed complete w/chip in head, hit by a car was bad enough. He just reacts to others problems (Carly), looks down, mumbles, apologizes for having to sleep on Liz’s couch, for Carly putting him up, for planting a bomb, for kidnapping Sam, basically, for breathing, shoveling snow. He’s Helena’s victim & toy soldier & even Dr. O’s (who shouldn’t even be in this s/l) victim-she kicked him out of hospital before he healed (so Liz said anyway). You have the reigning Lead Actor Emmy winner here & he’s not w/his son, wife, friends, working (anywhere!), has no home, no name, no memories, fresh outta jail w/chains on spewing out dialogue about his outstanding hospital bills from now his 3rd visit in 5 months to General Hospital! Stop making him a victim! I also feel Kiki especially also had no purpose & was just written reacting to other’s lives. RC has to give Maxie, Morgan, NuKiki, Jake, Sam even, Nina, Franco jobs like he did w Lucas.

“…Please stop making him an apologetic victim!”

I was thinking the same thing after watching Tuesday’ ep:

as he was bemoaning “Luke” : you didn’t have to treat your own daughter so badly… ???? huh? he’s commiserating with Carly about her sons… ???
his “puppy dog” eyes… as he’s telling Sam and Liz about Helena “mind control”

———–

i’m hoping

the surgery will lease his memory back to the original Quartermania days… and this will move ON… back to the original days…

up to this point… it’d be great to see him with Monica and Tracy… and Alice

he’s got to end up with Liz… this is where the passion is most obvious

———-

LOL disgruntle time

Carly to Michael…. “I know deep down in your heart you still love Sonny.” as she’s berating Michael for suing for custody of Avery ????? another huh? Carly ??? seemed like she was going against her own son…

if GH is going to prop Chad Duell… which I”m so over … KEEP Sonny, Carly, and Michael apart…. they just do not mix well together… this is whats so tiring… the same things with these three … blech!

food for thought ….

I really would like Carlos with Carly…. what about Carly and Ric Lansing… ??? I think this would be her best get…. if she’s propped so much… at least try and get someone who she gells with… someone strong with whit and machismo to play with

Sonny ??? he actually has it going with Ava…. even tho it pains me she’s not with Morgan…. but if, once again… GH needs to propped … this is his best bet

I was pleasantly surprised… OK… give it back… but when Sabrina showed up at the Q… to talk to Michael…. and they sat down together at the table that was set for Ned and Alexis… I thought… they looked good together… what an opportune time.. for two of the dullest … to no holds barred … put something together.. spark, render, and clean slate together…. they are both by nature soft spoken… caring… and … ????

this part of the GH equation… will always stump me.

Morgan is the meat and potato of Sonny brood… id reel him … it’s too bad they didn’t hire Kelly Missal as the new Kiki… these two would have smoldered

———–

GH production… you lucked out in turning Michelle Stafford around… THANK GOD… she’s dynamic again… and so is Roger Howarth… whew!

get on the sticks and move Billy Miller.

Oh dear Patrick…..Sappy and Michael???? No no no…a thousand times NO!!!!! Today was the second occurrence in as many weeks that she was sniffing around the Quartermaine heir’s lair and continuing with that lame, insipid apology tour of hers. And what’s with all this sudden unloading of Michael’s personal business upon this irksome miss? Enough already….the Sapster needs to be sent packing instead of wasting time and energy inventing something for her to do. (Besides, isn’t the shady Grossalie supposed to be the clueless Q’s new confidante???? Not that I miss her….)

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)? Can Carly (Laura Wright) with the help of her brother, Lucas (Van Hansis) rescue Josslyn (Eden McCoy) from captivity at Wyndemere? 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!

FINOLA HUGHES RETURNS

The final moments of the teaser promo reveal Anna in a psychiatric clinic in France. We have not seen her for months after Cullum, Sidwell and Pascal fed her hallucinogenics to make her believe her arch nemesis, Cesar Faison was alive!

Now, the doctors walk towards her hospital bed, where we see the super spy calmly knitting. Is Anna back to normal and playing everyone to get out of her predicament, or does she still remain deeply traumatized … or both?

Take a look at the rest of the official GH spoilers for the week below.

MONDAY, JUNE 22
Willow gets an unwelcome surprise. Trina sticks to her guns. “Nathan” wants reassurance. Ethan advises Ava. Brook Lynn receives an update.

TUESDAY, JUNE 23
Dante cautions Liz. Laura learns a secret. Brook Lynn confides in Michael. Sonny challenges Ava. Chase makes a decision.

WEDNESDAY, JUNE 24
Anna meets with her doctor. Carly makes a stunning confession. Britt extracts a promise. Cullum pulls a fast one. Gio and Emma hit the pool.

THURSDAY, JUNE 25
Josslyn clashes with Cassius. Lulu and Dante make a discovery. Chase receives a warning. Jordan seeks help. Alexis is summoned to the PCPD.

FRIDAY, JUNE 26
Anna takes a huge risk. Britt is in grave danger. Willow is in disbelief. Danny must act fast. Curtis jumps to the wrong conclusion.

Check out the latest General Hospital promo entitled, “Rescue Mission” below.

Now weigh-in: Do you think Anna is still mentally off-balance, or OK, and just pretending to be troubled to get out of France and get back to Port Charles? Will Josslyn finally be rescued, or will Carly and Lucas find themselves locked up with her? And, who will get to Britt and Rocco first? Cullum, or Dante and Lulu?

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

Published

By

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.
