Ham Finns son…probably it will be Kiki so Morgan can have some more bipolar episodes…lol

I hope he’s brought on to steer Kiki AWAY from the the Corinthos…

Morgan and Michael are so far and away just lame and immature for lovely Kiki

Amen Patrick!

Brother to Dr. SexyPecs?

Cameron?

He is a very handsome Italian man! I bet he is working with Sonny or Julian with the mob stuff.

Why, Brian? Not because he’s Italian, I hope. That would be stereotyping. LOL.

I think Kristina runs into him at the pizzeria! “Who do you Love?”

Hottie is right- I love him and most definitely interested. There are shirtless pics on his twitter.

Hottie McHot!

Does GH really need yet another useless newbie? Can’t GH use the cast they already have?

When they look like him….most definitely yes.

Maybe for Kristina

That would spoil the chemistry Kristina abd Parker have.

” Hello ” any one …. ????

did I miss the conversation…. when Kristina … came out to Mom’ Alexis?

Kristina is talking to Lucas… and told him… She did not take it well… and that by the end of the conversation… Alexis is telling Julian… that Kristina is “accusing” Alexis of being a homophobe

i’ll have to go and look for it on youtube

At first reading your post I thought- wrong wrong- since why were we taken down ladypond lane- but you are probably right on the money- as soon as they trot her out as possibly gay they will hurriedly trot her back to straight as otherwise she would have to go as they will not have that storyline in any real way I feel.

My comment was meant as Kristina is still confused, she does not know what she is. We do know she had relationships in the past and was married. I do think she is attracted to Parker but her first intention was to get a good grade. I think Parker may be flattered that a young women is attracted to her, as maybe her marriage that she wants to keep is a bit fragile.

If you look at the men she has been with or wanted to be with Ethan, Johnny, Trey and the boyfriend that she killed. Very poor judgement. Verdict is still on her feelings.

I don’t get this!!!! Daytime soaps are always CLAMORING for something that has NEVER BEEN DONE on soaps before!! Here we have it…a bi-sexual. NEVER BEEN DONE ON SOAPS!!! They do exist, you know!!!! Sorry GLAAD! Sometimes, young girls, and guys, experiment with their sexuality, and then realize “Hey, I’m straight.” no big deal. Go for it! Tell the story!! Due to her abusive past, have Kristina experiement with women, but then realize she is straight! No harm, no foul. No need for parades, and pickets. Just a true to life story! I hope Jean and Shelly tell it!!!!

Get Kristina this guy!!

@Patrick.
Yummy….another Italian cutie.
Oh, Patrick; I love your idea….anything to get Kiki out of “Mortem’s” reach.

Thought you might enjoy him, CeeCee darling. I certainly did. #leftovers #meow

Now, that’s hilarious!!!!!! Thanks for leaving me some, Alexis. LOL

Laughing- thanks for that!

@CeeCeeGirl….So glad that you’re getting another piece of tall, dark and handsome eye candy to enjoy, but for the love of God, can we not have just one “Blond Adonis” for those of us who prefer the fair-haired boys? This endless parade of brunette cookie-cutter cuties is getting ridiculous!

I know, I know, my fair Shaybelle. But, that”s your Italian fare. I never tire of the type…LOL.
You know, I keep suggesting my brother infiltrate the industry just for you, Shay….he’s exactly what you’re looking gor. A true Viking. But, he caught my bug for Astrophysics, with a twist. LOL.
But, seriously…look at DeLuca. WOW!!!!! As Timmmy said; I hope he can act; and has a brain….one must go with the other.
If I wanted only a beautiful face and physique on a guy….I could just stare at my husband all day.
However, DeLuca doesn’t look like a cookie-cutter. He does not fit the realm of American Beauty….
One will not find anything of the sort in Italy….not even houses. Everything is unique….no cookie-cutter anything. HaHa.

Ahhh, CeeCee….Looks and brains! An unbeatable combination…..sounds like it runs in your family! But seriously…..I’ve already told you I find Michael Easton to have a unique and purely soap-friendly façade and I can also appreciate Griffin’s considerable charms…all well and good! However, variety is the spice of life, and I regard the lack of a golden boy on the GH canvas to be highly remiss. The closest thing is Billy Miller’s All-American appeal, and I do enjoy that, but as I have previously mentioned, one thing this soap did so well in the past was to bring in international talent, so if they cannot locate even one suitable fair-haired fellow on this side of the Atlantic, then by all means, let’s import a Nordic God, Blond Brit or even generically-pale male of European extraction to fill the bill. I’m tired of having to locate them solely for my viewing pleasure on such foreign fare as Scandinavian Noir, English dramas and Italian mysteries, though I must admit that their vast array of attractive men certainly surpasses much of anything I see on domestic programming these days.

Well with two beach movies to his name, we know he is in shape and ready to be shirtless—LOL—- Sonny does need a new enforcer since Sean is in jail and Jason isn’t interested–maybe if he is in many scenes with Sonny it will give me something to look at– no offense to Max– who looks more like a teddy bear than a bodyguard– but Sonny needs a new go to guy and I can see this guy being him.

Alexis needs a paralegal and will have one. Or two.

I make good coffee.

As I have read on here a few times, and believe it is an homage to Rod Serling’s Twilight Zone? Anyway I like it, so- May I present for your consideration- This hot stud and a young hot stud- has arrived for Laura. Yes. Time Genie was thrown a bone and this one seems a magnificent specimen. So what if she is a few months older? I would thrill at a new save the world adventure with her new loving adoring boytoy. When I read Genie got a three-year contract, I was happy- but from these pages I gather that those precious contracts can be quashed without any warning. The cast is huge, and some have called for pruning or a plague, and I am open to that. Maybe what Laura is seeking should be a good-sized hand mirror- or full-length, even. So that she might take a good look at herself- and certainly a pleasing reflection- but who is Laura, really? She spent years in a vegetative state only to occasionally be rinsed in cold water and tossed in a salad that seemed shy on the blue cheese. I would enjoy a slice or two of avocado, as well. When was the last season that a GH star was on DWTS? I can not remember. And is Jax completely out of the picture forever on GH?

OOOOOO!!!!! I love it, Rhonda. Go get ‘im, Laura!!!!

I see what you are getting at- we all would love a Cobb salad and some sourdough bread. DWTS rocks and I vote it is added to coverage on here as it is full of drama but not any daytime stars which is just wrong.

Just curious Mark. Are there two of you. I need to make the distinction…your name is with a capital M….the other MARK is lower case ‘m’? Is that the distinction?

– HERE YE , HERE YE –

“…but who is Laura, really? She spent years in a vegetative state ”

along with being the voice of reason… dutiful mother, and grandma

LIVE ! Laura… the world is your oyster… NO MORE LUKE… IT”S YOUR SHOW

all things relative… it has to be stumping FANS imagination RUN with all that Genie francis can

up to this point… there was some “relish” in that candy bar

PLEASE let that key…. and the connection to SCOTTY BALDWIN … LEAD

the fallout and or outcome… from this mystery ala Helena…

I hope it bequeaths her POWER with the Cassadine Empire…

give her something to do… for her own person

Lass Laura shall seize the treasure of which she was robbed, there will be comeuppance for many of mob and white knight the Scott man will be deep involved. Cassadines will pale when soon we compare, the fierce uber new queen Laura, the lassie so fair.

Love the rhymes Boaty McBoatface and all the humor. Love GH

Maybe he is Finn’s heroin supplier ..
He is the pusherman, yup .. ahaa !

looks like he will be connected to Finn ..

You really think Finn is shooting up, su? Oh, gosh, I so hope not! He is a doctor…holding lives in his reptilian hands. I think he is Roxy’s mate, injecting himself with human cells. That’s it. He is a reptile. Well, why not? It’s GH. LOL.

Or Finns son

I was like …. WOAH !

i’m surprised the message boards aren’t on fire … with Finn extra curricular activities

my first thought is that he’s using his body as a test subject ???

I was more annoyed that Carly shows up with fresh towels… and their , those two… go again… gushing about Roxie.

two ad nauseam bonding scenes between these two… do not make them an interesting pairing

@Patrick.
Hey, Patrick,
That’s an excellent premise. Finn using his own body as a testing subject. Would I go too far and say that he may have injected himself with some kind of parasite/microbe/organism in order to find a cure?

Heroin? Could it simply be insulin?

Well, Walter. That is the first thing I said when Finn pulled out that immense needle. For medicinal purposes. As he is an infectious disease specialist, he may have contracted a tropical disease? I also think Roxy provides him with the serum….and, he is using it on Tracy, as well.

What in heaven’s name do we need another new face on the G.H. canvas for when those of us who’ve been watching this show for decades don’t get to see the people we really tune in for??
I want to see Mac and Felicia, Lucy, Laura, Scott, and anyone else who’s been missing from Port Charles or is only there off-screen. These characters’ history with the show and fans should be equally, if not more, important than bringing on yet another new face.
And can we please stop having these actors referred to as ‘hotties’ and ‘hunks’. They are actors with experience and, presumably, talent to bring to whatever show hires them. It’s not always about sex appeal, okay?!

Oh my god, sexy man. Now I need to take a cold shower lol.

Oh, yeah, Lorenzo. He is Italian, afterall. I have one of those!!

I’ll have Carly bring some fresh towels.

He is really handsome. I hope he can act! He will either be connected to Finn, Griff or Nathan. I see him working in the hospital as a rehab specialist with Kiki. I hope she dumps Moron and also dumps that god awful name! Go by Lauren, your not 15 anymore! Haley rocks baby!

Yum I’m gonna start watching GH again!

Michael,
He’s certainly hot. I personally hope he’s not connected…….BRand new an d mysterious. would love that……

The new Spencer…he has been on the island and rapidly grew up

Good one!’

I’ll bet he’s Roland Berlin, brother of Rachel Berlin and son of Raymond Berlin whose Ponzi scheme is the talk of the town these days…

Good call Alan. I think they should cast Mr. and Mrs. Berlin as well.

Isn’t Raymond Berlin dead? I am not sure….well, Bernie is. Lol.

I’m glad GH took my suggestion. I just don’t think the cast is large enough….

Vey good casting

I think the kid could be Brenda barrette kid with sonny a secret love child she put up for adoption come to gh to stir th epotup and lands JOSHLAIN JAX

hum a 30 year old man and 12 year old girl??

Sorry thought he was a kid apologies

He should be a love interest for Kristina. She is clearly not gay. She is just confused and rebellious.

yes

No!!!!

Better for Molly….both so pretty…LOL.

Gay people LOVE being told they are confused. Smh.

Another character to eat up more screen time when they can barely write for all of the characters they now have on canvas. Guess this means we’ll have another Lucas and Brad siting sometime next year. Forget about ever seeing Felicia and Mac again.

@CeeCee Sweet, weirder things have been played out on the show,
nothing would surprise me at this point. Loved Nina ripping into Julian
on yesterday’s show..she’s so pretty!! That black dress was EVERYTHING.
I don’t know about you, but….. I’m really tired and bored w/ Sam & Jason
I was done with them before it began. No spark, No chemistry, No chance,
they’ll never be the “super couple” TPTB were hoping for. That magic was
with the original Jason played by Steve Burton…. For me B Miller will always
be Jake. Moving on to Hayden…she’s got to STOP calling Elizabeth’s children
brats or make any other derogatory comments about them, that sincerely irks me.
I see the writers testing the waters and pairing unlikely characters together…Some
actually look quite good as an alternative “couple”… Curtis could make a piece of
toast look gooooooood!!! even rotten Hayden. Nick & Elizabeth should give it ONE
more try… down the road, there are no secrets, no lies between them, there’s a lot
to be said about your long history with someone… They R very protective of one
another. Julian and Nina looked better suited together than he currently looks w/
Alexis…Don’t get me wrong I was a huge Julian & Alexis fan when they first met
and bonded over Danny. The reveal at the gallery and subsequent love affair was
spectacular. Julian needs to be his mobster self again, under the guise of the
newspaper editor. Since Anna & Sonny are gunning for him…Should he go down…
he has to dirty his hands in order for the storyline to come full circle.
Nathan, Claudette storyline who cares another dead end. Finn is still a puzzle
to be solved, lots of possibilities. Just my take. ❌⭕️ Sweets.

Yes he is Jake to me also

Ah, Fanny, ma chere amie,
You know how much I love my Michelle. So happy to see Nina divest herself from thst girlish perdonality affixed to her by the bosses.
Oh, yes….she’s gorgeous…those legs go on forever…I am jelous…LOL. A little, black dress can do wonders to any womanly body. Stunning.
Tell me sbout Sam and Jason. They hang out, sit around, have their indecipherable, mumbled conversation ( just ask Timmmy, lol) …no emotion, no expression. Then, Sam asks, ” want to go check it out?”… Or something to that effect. Jason shrugs his shoulders and follows like a little lamb. Nothing! Nada! Rien! Niente! Nicht! No dparks. And, you and Bonnie are right….he will always be Jake….or Billy Abbott.
As yourself, I really liked Alexis and Julian together, at the beginning. I thought they were steamy hot….until their sexusl interludes became too much for a working mature woman ( actually any woman, man) who found so much time to indulge anytime, anywhere…..to the point where their offspring and then some , kept walking in on them.
Obviously, that was the direction they were given, but it got to be too unrealistic for me. My opinion is my opinion, and I hive it without reservation or apologies…comme vous, ma belle dame.
If today’s display of ‘a hissy fit’ from Nina is any indication of sexual tension between herself and Julia…?….I don’t know…maybe. But, he is such a miscreant….a snake, ready to pounce at any given moment. The last thing I want is for Nina to get hurt.
I care not what happens to Alexis. She new better. She’s as burly as he, been around. If she gets hurt by Julian, she’ll survive the syorm as she has many others before him. But Nina is a butterfly with delicate wings. She is just starting to spread those gossamer feelings. And, yes, ajulian should go down; only because he is not trustworthy nor forthcoming with his wife or anyone else. He is a doublecrosser…no contrition.
I have already said that this Claudette thing is stupid. I had spun a tale when i first said thst the glove belonged to a girl in Nathsn’s past. However, i also expected for her to materialize in zpC. THAT would make for a challenging story/love trisngle. Other than thst, it is a wash.
Kisses and hugs to you, as well, my sweet lady. Please forgive the typos.

Jason got boring as soon as he became JASON and got back with Sam, together they are a snooze fest. I hope Liz gets with Griffen, and I agree about Hayden needing to stop picking on Liz kids, Liz should tell her call me anything you want but leave my kids out of it . Love Nina too and I hope Anna gets Julian soon he needs to pay for his crimes.

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)?

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

Published

on

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.

‘General Hospital’ Alum Chad Duell Announces Upcoming Release of His First Single, ‘If You Need Me’

Published

In a surprise move, Daytime Emmy winner, Chad Duell (ex-Michael Corinthos, GH) is getting ready to unveil a new chapter of his career in music.

The former GH star, where he played the son of Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard) and Carly Spencer (Laura Wright) for 15 years, has announced his new single, “If You Need Me” will drop on Friday, June 26. The single is now available for pre-order on Spotify and major music streaming platforms and is distributed by DistroKid.

Taking to his Instagram story over the weekend, to announce the pre-save of his new single, Chad expressed, “I’ll make a full post about what I’ve been up to and my music once it goes live next week, but you can pre-save my first single so it goes straight to your Spotify once it drops next week.”

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.
