Ian Buchanan To Make Appearances on General Hospital

Now that the cat is out of the bag from Daytime Emmy winner, Ian Buchanan, himself, General Hospital fans should be on the lookout for some ghostly Duke Lavery sightings.

According to the actor on a recent Cameo video to a fan, Buchanan shared: “I’m gonna be there on Monday or Tuesday this coming week. Just appearing… ghosting. But I don’t think anybody knows it. You may be the first. Well, I knew it, and people there knew it, but I haven’t heard about it anywhere else. So you may want to watch it.”

Ian became wildly popular as GH’s Duke, having first appeared on the scene in the summer of 1986 till the character “died” in 1989.  However, Buchanan returned as Duke in 2012 until 2015 when Duke died once again, this time apparently forever.  Enter the ghostly visits!

In story, Anna (Finola Hughes) and Duke were a GH super couple back in the 80’s, and in 2015, Duke was shot and killed by Carlos Rivera (Jeffrey Vincent Parise)..

So how will Duke re-appear on GH? Let us know your thoughts via the comment section below.

Duke is likely to appear as a ghost/vision to Julian as he finally exits the canvas. Wouldn’t be surprised if Carlos, Connie or (gasp) Morgan also reappear.

Morgan didn’t appear, because he’s not a ghost!

Well OK, neither is Alexis, but she probably got drunk and accidentally left her body or something.

Connie’s white blood stained dress has to by one of the most iconic (and I hate that term) outfits in Port Charles history.

Not sure I like this. First off, why the hell did they have to kill off the character again in 2015? i loved the character of Carlos even if he wasn’t a good guy but when he killed duke, the story became jumbled to me and i really thought the writers bombed big time. Now, they’ll bring Ian back but he will be playing Duke as a ghost? It’s going to be tough for me to take interest here.

Duke was somewhat of a legendary character in GH history, though his origins weren’t really that original, as his story was essentially a rewrite of Luke Spencer, only with a Scottish accent. Club owner doing money laundering for the mob, suddenly drafted by the mob to be more involved in the “family business”, etc. Only in his case the mob wasn’t Frank Smith, but the OG version of the Jerome family. He supposedly died in a warehouse explosion in the early 1990s, but that was shown at the time to be a faked death. He was “disappeared” into witness protection.… Read more »

GENERAL HOSPITAL: Marcus Learns He’s Not Trina’s Biological Father

On Wednesday’s episode of General Hospital, Trina (Tabyana Ali) opened the DNA test results that would conclude who is her actual bio-dad. Would it be the man who raised her, Taggert (Réal Andrews) or, the man she more recently has come to know, Curtis (Donnell Turner)?

At GH, Marcus, Curtis and Portia (Brook Kerr) gather to learn the results.  It turns out that Curtis is Trina’s biological father, not Marcus.

However, are these results, correct? Are DNA results ever correct on soaps? Did Selina Wu (Lydia Look) have something to do with switching these in favor of Curtis? Are we digging into this too much?

After the revelation, Trina tells Curtis. they will need to take some time need to figure out their relationship.  Trina makes it clear she’s not looking for a replacement father, and hopes he can understand and accept that.  Curtis promises he will let Trina take the lead on things.

Meanwhile, Taggert, who promised Trina no matter what happens that nothing will change between them, decides to take off and breaks down in the elevator.  Marcus is devastated and in tears, and is left using the elevator as a punching bag for his fists.

You can watch the final moments of the scene, featuring a heart-tugging performance by Réal Andrews below.

Now let us know, are you glad Trina’s bio-dad turned out to be Curtis and not Marcus … or were you hoping it would turn out the other way around? Share your thoughts in the comment section.

DAYS and GH Alum Tyler Christopher Arrested for Public Intoxication

Daytime Emmy-winner, Tyler Christopher (ex-Nikolas, GH; ex-Stefan, DAYS) was arrested for public intoxication at the Burbank, California airport, this past Friday, on May 26th.

According to the Burbank PD and reports obtained by TMZ, Tyler was arrested after they found him asleep and on the ground at the American Airlines terminal.  The officers noted that Tyler displayed clear and objective signs of drinking.  They also reveal he was unable to care of himself.

Christopher, who remains a fan favorite as the former Nikolas Cassadine on GH and Stefan DiMera on DAYS has opened up and discussed his battle with alcoholism in the past.  Last year, he appeared on former GH co-star Maurice Benard’s You Tube series, State of Mind.

GENERAL HOSPITAL: Who Will Turn Out to be Trina’s Biological Father … Curtis or Taggert?

This week’s episodes of General Hospital are set to deliver some needed results and some bombshells.  First, Victor’s will is read, but, in true GH fashion, the evil Cassadine delivers his reading via a videotaped message of himself in a return appearance by Charles Shaughnessy,

Meanwhile, Trina (Tabyana Ali), Curtis (Donnell Turner) and Portia (Brook Kerr) have all been awaiting the DNA tests results to prove that Trina is the biological daughter of Curtis, not Marcus Taggert (Réal Andrews) .

At the same time, Curtis is moving back in with Portia, after his lip lock with his ex-wife, Jordan (Tanisha Harper).

Spencer (Nicholas Chavez) and Trina are at the center of both storylines, because Uncle Victor probably left something behind for Spencer, while Trina will be dealing with the fallout from the DNA results.
