Kin Shriner (Scotty Baldwin) returns to General Hospital on February 19th, when according to an ABC rep, “Scott Baldwin returns to Port Charles as most of the town is gathered at the Haunted Star for a Valentine’s Day party and the first person he sees is Luke.”
However in a brand new interview out with TV Guide Magazine’s Michael Logan, Shriner reveals that it is a story from the past that could play a huge part in his return, and of course, dealing with Luke (Tony Geary) and the return of Laura (Genie Francis).
When asked about the rumors that Scott’s return has something to do with revisiting the incident where Luke’s daughter Lulu (Julie Marie Berman) killed Scott’s son Logan (Josh Duhon), Shriner replied, “That’s what they tell me. I kinda thought we played that out so I’m wondering where this is headed. Scotty took Lulu to trial and didn’t win. He didn’t really know Logan very well — one day the kid just suddenly popped up in town — but maybe Scotty’s still disgruntled.”
In addition, for those wondering will Scott come back a good guy or a bad guy? Shriner would only offer up, ” Scott’s been through so many incarnations, what with hundreds of writers, plus my own meddling. He’s been a goodie and a baddie. Hey, when you’re happily wed to a woman who runs off with her rapist, it’ll tarnish you. I’m just wondering who else they can dig up for the 50th. ”
So soapers, what do you think could be the reason that GH would bring up Lulu shooting Logan at this point in time? Do you like Scott Baldwin (we prefer “Scotty”) as a good guy or a bad guy? Weigh-in!

GENERAL HOSPITAL: Jason and Britt Reach an Impasse; Is This the End of Their Relationship?
On the Friday, September 11 episode of General Hospital, Jason (Steve Burton) and Britt’s (Kelly Thiebaud) relationship becomes strained to potentially the point of no return.
Things take a turn when an unglued Britt having been traumatized by almost being killed by Anna Devane (Finola Hughes) asks Jason to back her up with the PCPD when she reports Anna for attempted murder.
However, Jason told Britt, he can’t. Jason shares that he does not believe Anna would have gone through with shooting her. Therefore, Britt was not in any real imminent danger. Britt is flabbergasted and hurt that Jason is refusing to tell the police what he actually witnessed for himself on Mount Emerson.

BRITT WANTS BACK UP FROM JASON
Jason counters that he can’t believe that Britt would want Anna punished. or sent to prison, or a mental facility after the trauma she endured while being locked up and mentally tortured while at Wyndemere.
He asks Britt, “How could you even say that you want her locked up or prosecuted for what she did when you knew she was being held prisoner and you did nothing to save her?” Britt is stunned by Jason’s response.
Coming up, official General Hospital spoilers share that on the upcoming Monday, September 14 episode, Jason confides in Carly (Laura Wright), while Britt is stung. In the video preview that aired at the end of the Friday, September 11 episode for this coming Monday, Britt says to Jason, “You don’t believe me. Do you?”
General Hospital head scribes, Chris Van Etten and Elizabeth Korte previously teased in their fall preview of the soap, “Britt and Jason have come a long way and fought a lot of enemies to be together. But the most stubborn obstacle to their happiness isn’t without, it’s within. Decisions Britt made to stay alive while under Cullum’s thumb will come back to haunt her and may prove too difficult for this unlikely couple to survive.”
So, what do you think will happen? Will Jason and Britt break-up over Britt’s lies and Jason’s unwillingness to report Anna’s crime against her? Do you want Jason and Britt to go their separate ways? If they do, will Britt become romantically involved with Dr. Tristan Roberts (Dean Geyer) ? If so, who do you pair Jason with? Anyone? Weigh-in via the comment section.
If Anna Devane’s (Finola Hughes) new therapist on General Hospital looks familiar to you, it’s because actress Kearran Giovanni, who plays Dr. Nichols, previously played a doctor on One Life to Live!.
Viewers tuning-in to the Thursday, September 10 episode of GH got their first look at Dr. Nichols who has been brought in to help Anna recover from her PTSD and trauma following the reveal that she has been suffering from a break in reality since before being put in mental health facility in France, after being gaslighted by Cullum and company earlier in the year.
One Life to Live fans will recall that Kearran Giovanni played Dr. Vivian Wright in 2009, and it was then she first worked with current General Hospital EP, Frank Valentini, who at the time was at the helm in Llanview.

WHERE ELSE HAVE YOU SEEN KEARRAN GIOVANNI?
Giovanni appeared on OLTL in the recurring role through 2012 and in the final ABC episode of the beloved series was the the ob/gyn who delivered Destiny Evans (Shenell Edmonds) and Matthew Buchanan’s (Eddie Alderson) baby into the world, whom they named Drew Buchanan II after Bo Buchanan’s (Robert S, Woods) late son. In addition, Vivian has been dating Shaun Evans (Sean Ringgold).
In addition to One Life to Love, Giovanni has very impressive credits having appeared in numerous TV series and motion pictures including starring in the TNT drama Major Crimes from 2012-18, ABC’s Designated Survivor 2017-19, the CW’s Black Lightning from 2019-20. Most recently, Giovanni appeared on the Fox series, The Resident and has a recurring role on the CW’s crime series, Walker from 202-2024.
HEALING ANNA
On today’s General Hospital, after Anna’s harrowing meltdown where she almost shot and killed Dr. Britt Westbourne (Kelly Thiebaud) after seeing visions of “Peter August” (Wes Ramsey), Jason (Steve Burton) saved the day and talked Anna down from committing murder. Now, Dr. Nichols was introduced as a valuable staff member at the hospital. Although, this marked the first time in the history of the show we have heard of her character.
So, do you remember seeing Kearran Giovanni on One Life to Live? Happy to see that Anna may have a qualified therapist in charge of her healing, unless the doctor turns out to be not on the up and up? Let us know your thoughts via the comment section below.

GENERAL HOSPITAL: Anna Breaks Down in Front of Jason and Britt After Shots Are Fired
The Wednesday, September 9 episode of General Hospital featured top-notch performances by Finola Hughes and Steve Burton, as Anna holds Jason and Britt (Kelly Thiebaud) at gunpoint on Mount Emerson.
Anna is not in her right mind as hallucinations of Peter (Wes Ramsey) overtake her, egging her on to shoot and kill Britt. Jason begs Anna to put down the gun, but it’s clear Anna is speaking to someone who is not there, but in a direction that is just past Britt.
Suddenly, Anna screams at Britt, “You’re just like your father!” Anna also tells Britt that she knew Britt was aware that she was locked up on Spoon Island and did nothing to save her. Britt turns to Jason and tells him she had no idea Anna was on the Island, “until Cullum showed up in Port Charles.” That declaration gave Jason pause.

“PETER” TAKES A BULLET
Next, Anna is overcome with angst, filled with tears and screams out, “I won’t let you beat me!” She fires the gun where the imaginary Peter was standing, as Britt screams and Jason dove to cover her. Now completely shaken, Jason took the weapon from Anna and ordered Britt to leave the scene as Anna collapsed in Jason’s arms.
Jason was so concerned for Anna. She reveals she’s been seeing visions of Peter August since France. Jason shared his theory with Anna that she was manifesting her worst fears about Faison. However he knows deep down Anna would never have shot Britt. Jason promises to come back and clean up the area, but would take Anna home first.

ANNA ADMITS TO EMMA SHE TRIED TO KILL BRITT
At Anna’s, Jason brings her in the front door as Emma is there. Jason tells Emma (Braedyn Bruner) he would like to return and spend the night. A confused and worried Emma get the full story from her grandmother.
Anna explains she tried to kill Britt and she is not as well as she was pretending to be in France. Cut to: Jason cleaning up the site of Anna’s plot against Britt on Mount Emerson. He moves over and finds bullet casings on the ground and examines one of them.
The story climax also signaled the end of the run for Wes Ramsey, who has been showing up on episodes over the last several months as Anna’s dark side conscience. Now that Anna was able to break the psychological hold visions of “Peter” had on her, it ends this latest return of Ramsey’s.
So, what did you think about the scenes between Anna and Jason? Do you think Jason and Britt’s relationship will come to an end now that seemingly Britt revealed she knew Anna was held captive after Cullum came to town? Glad to know Anna won’t be haunted by visions of Peter August anymore? Weigh-in via the comment section below.

i want scotty to reveal that he has been in paris with laura building a very deeply committed relationship………….
Oy. Ron. You need to take a step back. I love seeing the old characters back on the show, but the history isn’t really working. People are not happy about the Caleb story. I watched Port Charles and the only reason I liked the vampire story was because of Michael Easton. PC had other stories and really talented actors that held my interest – didn’t really care for this story. Having said this, I trust you so I’ll give you a chance……..
As for Kin being back, YAY!!!!! But he left with Laura – or should I say – stowed away with Laura when she left. Doesn’t make sense that he’d go after Lulu. But again, I trust you, Ron Carlivati, so I’ll give you a chance.
Llike him… would prefer this time that he be a good guy. Glad he’s coming back sounds like he might be married to Laura already?
If they are going to revisit a story let it be to to r everse the horrible annihilation of another GH super couple Rick and Lesley Webber! I don’t care how implausible just reunite them and tell us that somehow it was all a scam or a bad dream and Rick’s been imprisoned somewhere and pining for Lesley! Btw, in my opinion Scott is much better at being the bad guy. So he and Helena concocted the whole thing?
I agree about Rick and Leslie. im the one who wrote how they could bring Rick back and how Helena and the Cassidine would be invovled in his disappearance. Its on this site if u havent seen it.
First of all Lulu did not shoot Logan,she stabbed him to death and Lulu did not go on trial for Logan’s murder Johnny did,so she could still be tried for his murder.
We’ll take Scotty and any vet back no matter why they’ve return. ILL even accept any story if Alan or Rick(Webber) were to return from the dead. Maybe Alan is alive and was in a coma after being shot and in some hospital far from PC and Edward was responisible for his care. Monica seen his ghost out of wishful thinking, and Tracy seen his ghost out of some sort of quilt for not being a better person. The Cassidines could have tricked Laura into believing she or was it Scotty had killed Rick Webber and Helena has kept Rick a prisoner all this time. The Rick everyone thought was murdered was actually one of Helenas men with a mask kinda like the way Faison fooled Anna to believe he was Duke. I just feel it was a mistake when those two characters were killed off, and wished they finda away to bring them back even if short term.
I wrote the above hoping Alan is alive somehow and is the missing ELQ share holder. Would he give to Tracy or the son who shot him?
Jimj, I think you should take over for Carlivati!! like your thinking!
I’m not as much interested in that as I am interested in finding out what went on between Laura and Scotty.
When last seen Laura left for Paris and Scotty showed up on the plane…fade to black.
Laura is coming back harboring a big secret…..I want to know if Scott is somehow involved in that.
And where the heck is Serena ,Scott’s daughter ?
Do you think that Scott and Laura had a kid?
No Bonnie ,I don’t think Laura and Scott had a child together.
But maybe the big secret she has is that she and Scott are married.
Scotty was a good guy back in the day and I liked him because he was sweet – but he got crapped on and turned into a baddie when he lost Laura to Luke.
I think Laura even made reference to that the last time she was on GH…. if I recall she told Luke that they had a hand in making Scott into a villain.
So who knows what’s in store.
I’ll take Scotty anyway they want to give him to me! Kin Shriner is fantastic and always makes it work.
Lulu stabbed Logan. She didn’t shoot him. LOL! Just a clarification there. 🙂
I really feel they to fix the Rick Webber story, Rick came to town with a mysterious agenda and then Wham, Laura thinks she killed him, while Lucky and Nic tried to move the body (in a silly Weekend at Bernies salute). Later it is revealed it was Scotty that killed Rick. I always believed that Rick faked his death and Hoped he was wasn’t gone for good. He was to important the History. I am hoping they will bring him (and Alan) Back.
I love Kin Shriner’s attitude always have always will. Who else can they dig up for the 50th too funny. I had almost forgotten about Logan.
it sounds like its going to be fun, the best part of this is seeing how excited the actors are about being back, i think they realize that this regime delivers and its so rewarding for everyone from the actors to the fans. As for the storyline they have him coming back for, well, I hope they don’t make Scotty so set on revenge, afterall he really didn’t know Logan, and Logan was no innocent victim here.
Logan was attacking Lulu, that’s why she got a knife to defend herself. He not only attacked Lulu, but Maxie too. So Logan was not innocent. Scotty never believe that, just because it’s Luke’s daughter. That;s how he was gonna make Luke pay, putting Lulu in jail. It’ll be a shock to Dante i’m sure that’s one reason they are bringing it back up. Sonny was there for Lulu when she was put in shadybrooke. At least Julie might get something interesting to do again. (this baby stuff is killing me…so stupid.)
well put
I hope Lauras secret is Rick Webber is still alive, and Luke goes off to find where Helena has kept him captive. This would be a good explaination for Luke being gone again(when Tony Geary takes his usual break from the show.) I heard they were casting a young actress who could possibly be Scottys daughter Serena. If down the road Luke and Laura were to be remarried i want it be a repeat at the original location where they first wed and up on that balcony Laura tosses her bridal flowers to the guest below and once again its Scotty who catches them. Sometimes it can be exciting to see history repeat itself. WELCOME BACK KIN SHRINER!
I want Scotty mixed up with Heather and Lucy and imagine him going toe to toe with Todd LOL
And definitely bring on Serena. Maybe she can compete with Starr for Michael?
Jenny
Lulu really does need something else to do, she is so boring and always on Maxis back boo hoo
I loved Scotty when he and Laura were together as teenagers, however I like her better with Luke. Surely, Scott has matured and maybe he could be a good guy again.
The last regime did everything they could to ruin so many great characters – Alan, AJ, Scotty, Stefan, Georgie, etc – by taking them out of character. They’ve managed to bring AJ back – and I’d be happy to see any of the above return, since Frank and Ron have such a keen understanding of the history. How cool would it be to find out that Frisco recruited Georgie for one of his missions, and that’s why they had to fake her death?
I’m all for great characters coming back but some should stay dead. If no one really dies how can we be invested in the drama? Much more has come from Georgie being dead than any story when she was alive IMO.
I suppose I just despised the previous regime’s penchant for taking established characters and then offing them or having them behave completely out of character simply for shock value. What was point of building Georgie as a character just to kill her off? Or killing Alan? Or bringing back Stefan, have him act like a mustache twisting villain and then kill him? Or making Rick Webber a villain? For years, GH suffered from character abuse, and its nice to see the opposite happening now.
I totally agree with you. GH was unwatchable for me for many years. I don’t think Georgie or Alan should have been killed or Rick Weber made into a villain!
Just a thought…since Scott is coming back ,bring back Serena Baldwin,Scott’s daughter by the late Dominique Stanton Baldwin (Lucy’s surrogate daughter).
Carly Schroeder played her and she is now 23 – Serena would be 20.
I think it would be interesting to throw her into the mix.
I just figured he was coming back for Lucy and/or Laura in as a lawyer… he could even have dealings with Tracy
Yes, I really wish they would bring back Alan as well as Rick. I would love to think Helena was behind the imposter that MUST have been Rick Webber. No way did the true Rick come back and not reunite with Lesley! I don’t assume that any of these actors care to work full time but I would be happy with a reunion between Rick and Lesley and have them spoken off screen until holidays and funerals. Same goes for Alan and Monica!
Serena was a tween during the PC years – so she should be at least in her late 20s, 30s (esp if Rafe is now a tween). If they wanted – they could make her be someone on screen already ( Ellie or maybe Dr Britt. Lucy meet Sabrina so she couldn’t be Serena).
i hope kin comes back as a nice guy letting by gons be by gons..the last mystery great grandchild to elq will be sabrina, and please get rid of that dr. brit who was with patrick. she is ugly and has horse teeth and looks like she could be a vampire. plus her telling maxie she lost lulus baby in newe years eve how could you go and have sex the same night and get pg. with spanellis baby. shes a liar and i hope maxie finds out before its to late of getting in her scheme to get sabrina fired.
First of all, Caleb story = stupid… Maxie/Lulu/Baby story = predictable & been done before. Second of all, anyone else think maybe Logan isn’t dead & sent the black rose replica to Lulu? Maybe thats also ehy Scott & Laura are in town? That’d be interesting. Need some action around here.
