General Hospital
Longtime General Hospital Fan Identified As One Of The Victims In El Paso Shootings
America has been reeling, once again, over the news of two mass shootings happening on the same day this past Saturday; one in El Paso, Texas and the other in Dayton, Ohio.
22 were killed in El Paso at a Walmart. As families waited for the news of loved ones, there was one story revealed by longtime host and journalist, Katie Couric on her Instagram account that made mention that one of this woman’s great joys was being an avid watcher of General Hospital.
In her post on victim Angelina Englisbee, 86, Couric said (along with separate posts on the lives of other victims from El Paso and Dayton): “Angie was talking on the phone with one of her sons when she told him she had to hang up because she was in the checkout line at Walmart. She had seven children. Her husband had died of a heart attack, leaving her to raise the children on her own. Her granddaughter Mia, 16, said she ‘loved watching sports and General Hospital.”‘
The New York Times spoke to Englisbee’s granddaughter, who expressed: “At one point, she was working three jobs at once. She was a very strong person, very blunt.” When the news came, Mia and her mother were in the car, driving to El Paso from their home in New Mexico. “My mom could not stop crying, and I remember thinking, ‘I can’t cry until we get there, I can’t cry until we stop,’” Mia said, adding, ‘It feels like hell — it doesn’t feel real.”’

So very sorry to hear about this and for those who lost a loved on over this past weekend’s tragic events.
so sorry for your loss
There is no love and compassion for our fellow human beings..no morals taught…no respect…it doesnt matter to me what color you are…it doesnt matter if your short or tall..it doesnt matter if thin or fat…it doesnt matter if you are religious or not…what matters if you are a kind, honest and caring person who obeys the laws and treat others the way you want to be treated…hate is a waste of time and time is too short to waste!!!
So love your comment, Jimmy—-thoughtful and compassionate. Respect for humanity starts in the home—-carries on what is taught in school. We, as a society have lost that.
Innocent people, children, lose their lives for naught ….and for those who point fingers must realize that by doing so will only stir the pot even more—-incite the disturbed mind to do the unimaginable. It is time to pray and come together.
My heart and prayers go to all those families; to all those parents who have lost children—-the worst pain anyone could ever have to endure.
Nice to hear from you…my health is on decline but im still here…
Thank you for your always thoughtful replies, Jimh! Sorry to hear that you have not been well, but I’m glad that you are “still here” at MFTV!!!!
So sorry to hear that, Jimmy…..God is looking out for you–stay strong, my friend. Life is fleeting……take care.❤️
@CeeCee…You are so right about the importance of proper home and school teachings and their unquestionable impact upon a child’s sense of both self-respect and respect for others! However, given the de rigueur anti-male social conditioning that is so prevalent in today’s public discourse and curriculum, I fear too many of our precious little chaps are sorely lacking in receiving the necessary support and loving guidance that they so deeply deserve and require, especially beginning at a tender age. Just consider that during the last two decades, most young men—particularly, but not exclusively, those of caucasian background—have been constantly subjected to educational efforts and media messaging intending to demonize, marginalize—and even ostracize—them from the mainstream of society. They have been told time and time again that their forefathers, and even more immediate male role models, are responsible for all that’s been— and continues to be—wrong in the world. What kind of twisted agenda is this to be propagated upon any child, let alone an entire class of boys, who had no choice in the race or sex of which they were born? Quite frankly, I’m amazed that there are not more highly-disaffected young (white) men behaving very badly given the outright discrimination and verbal abuse that they’ve faced on a regular basis from the media and certain special interest groups. (Think of the Covington kids who were nationally bashed and harassed based upon a totally false narrative presented by the left and their accomplices in the press…) This despicable practice has been escalating over the past few generations and it’s finally bearing its poisonous fruit. Until we return to promoting the value and worth of this vast group of individuals, we are going to see more and more of these events perpetrated from proponents of all varieties of radical ideologies because fringe organizations directly appeal to this otherwise largely neglected demographic, and all the gun grabs, weapon-free zones and red flag checks on God’s green earth won’t prevent these tragedies from happening. And by the way, we have seen these occurrences repeated with increasing regularity over the last twenty-plus years, spanning four different presidential administrations, two Democrat and two Republican, with majorities in the House and Senate going back and forth between political parties. None of them came up with a solution to this issue, so to try to place the blame on the most recent situations solely at the feet of the current commander-in-chief is a bit rich. Especially when it’s been repeatedly proved that most of the criminals committing these atrocities are not MAGA supporters, but actually the absolute opposite in terms of the politics they espouse. (Although the media often does all it can to conceal this highly inconvenient fact.)
We talk in circles, my dear Shaybelle. It is what it is, but this deplorable knows her ‘stuff’—I did say to you that I was ready to vote for Hillary until the last minute—-the discovery of the machinations and means she and her deceitful ‘peons’ used to achieve the purported deceptive and criminal ends is mystifying. I could not believe what I read—No need to explain any further.
All I can say is that only the ignorant fall for the propaganda—everyone should read the Manifesto. It’s a blasphemous credo……one expected to be adopted by this country? Not I!!!!
I was taken in—was one of said ignorant believers, until I reasearched and read without the influence of the lying media……impartial reading goes a long way.
I care not about words that were illegally gotten—-I look at the actions and the outcome.
Russia, Russia, Russia—-we will soon find out how enmeshed the ‘others’ were…..and, it all happened during Obama’s administration. Hmmmm—Trump was given the burden to bear.
I am leaving for MV on Monday, mia cara…..I hope I will have some respite—-hard with an extensive family such as mine…..I will try peeking in when I am able—
Luv-ya, bella. Enjoy the rest of the summer❤️
Baby we are beyond that evil has a name and it has been growing strong for years please do not blame a president people are going nuts I feel very sorry but no it won’t stop and every idiot had his day they feed off the media do we have a answer ??? No
People are frightened to walk out their door I have a alarm system armed still scared to death every day that some wack job is going to come charging thru
The whack jobs are domestic terrorists–they are white, male and American. No wall is going to help.
I am sorry, but that orange sociopath’s words were echoed by the El Paso shooter in a manifesto he posted on social media. Yes, these massive killings have existed twenty years before the orange sociopath took office. But the orange sociopath has taken a match and lit up the angry, white nationalist. He needs to take responsibility for that. Moreover, he is HORRIBLE at making people feel better in the aftermath of a massive tragedy–all he does is make folks feel more nervous, insecure and scared. America is under attack and the enemy is ourselves–this is domestic terrorism.
And, the Dayton shooter announced he killed in the name of socialism, dear Harry. He went on to say he worships Sanders and Warren….yet, we do not hear this from the far-left media and the Dems. Was Obama to blame for the Sandy Hook shooting of innocent children? I have friends in Newtoen ( Sandy Hook) whose children were in attendance. My friend is grateful and thankful everyday her children were safe and well.
Why do you discriminate against someone’s skin coloring? Would you say that to a black, brown or yellow HUMAN being?
It is the radical left who dons a black mask and coverings—yeah, ANTIFA? Cowards!! They condemn fascism—yet, they are the ones who act like Mussolini’s minions.
Keep in mind, Harry, that I hold you in the highest esteem—and, I am not Republican. But, I know global history like the back of my hand, as it were.
The wall was not Trump’s idea…..it would behoove you to read, my friend….you will be surprised what you will find.
Trump is simply seeing it through. We do not need sex traffickers; we do not need criminsls borrowing and recycling children to use as a ticket into the country. There are pirts of entry. Separation of children from the parents? Well, as much as it pains me to say this, when an American commits a crime, he/she is separated from his/ her children. Crossing the border illegaly is a crime. We have borders and laws to be respected. Free for all? Where’s the money? Let’s be judicious here.
Why is it that you do not call out Big Mouth Maxine? She propagates hate with her incendiery remarks. Why do you not call out Hillary for fraternizing with members of the KKK…or when she said all black people look alike; thinking her mic was off?
Why not call out a certain democrat, who sold his soul to China to protect his drug-addicted son?
Why not call out a certain president, who rubbed shoulders with the Russians promising things would be different once he was in office?—no scandal? Uranium; Vera Baker; Farrakhan ( who wants to exterminate Jews)—Rev Wright; who wants to pulverize all whites?
Being driven by hate is cancerous—therefore, before people assume this holier-than-thou hypocritical attitude, we must all look in the mirror.
Rev Martin luther King’s own sister and granddaughter verbally fought tooth and nail to dissuade the notion that Trump is a white supremacist. Would they be friends with him and his family if they even suspected Trump was racist? I foubt it.
He is the best president since forever. Why? The country comes first. If we want our bodies, lives, minds and our life-savings to be taken over by the government ( Orwellian overtaking of the psyche–Big Brother) then yes, we should vote socialist—at this point all the Dems are parroting each other like good, little non-sensical puppies. Why? Driven by hate and not wisdom. Then, once whoever is in office; the promises thry made are flushed down the toilet!!
Have a great day, Harry—pardon the typos.
Sad, but oh, so true, Kay! Despite the all-too-familiar finger-pointing, blame-gaming and political posturing that occurs every single time one of these evil nutjobs goes off the handle and shoots up a place, nothing—including punishing innocent, law-abiding citizens with ever-stricter prohibitions—is going to stop these nefarious characters as long as the media enable them with both a platform to share their sick manifestos and an ultimate public moment of glorious recognition which they so obviously crave. Where there is a will, there is always going to be a way…whether via the blackmarket for desired weaponry or simply another means to an end, like Oklahoma City, 9/11 or other highly deadly examples which killed many, many people without a single gunshot.
Well said as usual…they go on about Trump and what he says and blames him for this-and maybe so-but why constantly repeat it over and over and over…i think the news sometimes makes it worse with the constant reminders
Shay…Using your words, “where there is a will there is a way,” why not apply this to lawmakers? Especially Mitch’s group and those in both parties beholden to the NRA and gun manufacturers right her in the US. There has been these kinds of atrocities before the present administration, but not so many as the last few years. And unlike other presidents, words that help fuel the fire coming from the present “leader” of our country. For someone who appreciates language and words I would think you could see this. And another note about “where there is a will there is a way.” My grandson just came back from a school sponsored trip to China where they visited the Great Wall. It didn’t solve their problem either. And it’s very tall. But at least it was built with slave labor, not taxpayers money (sarcasm here.)
A lot of these problems started decades ago…he may add to the problem but not totally responsible…things should had been done after McDonalds even more so after Sandy Hook…we blamed the killer for those…and had things been pushed years ago much could had been prevented..we do not need military style rifles Mags ex…
So very true Jimh. Thank you.
Peace.
peace to you too…and you’re welcome
Totally agree with you Jimh…it’s so devastating, horrific, tragic and sickening how we continue to have these senseless horrific acts of violence…IMO people need to have more compassion for one another…Thoughts and prayers to all family members affected in El Paso and Dayton…
Please stop with the useless “thoughts and prayers.” Can someone please tell me why any civilian needs to own an assault rifle with high capacity magazines?
They dont..what gets me is the opiod crisis..pills are taken off market…people are limited with what they can get hold of…the same should be done with guns-that is just a big crisis too…
Ahhhh, Jimmy….of course there shouldbev a bi-partisan meeting of the minds to control this cancer. However, this has nothing to do with guns, fake racism, fake Naziism etc….No, my friend….this has everything to do with How-can-we-incite-the-people-to-hate-Trump-as-much-as-we-do. Soulless, Godless, excuses for human beings.
I have eyes. I have ears. I have a brain!! The blatant odium for one man and his family, down to the youngest child; a baby , is something to behold!! Shame and double shame.
These killers are sick—hopefully, these weapons will be not as readily available—but, we should not point fingers at innocent people.
Jimmy, you are the most thoughtful and kind man ever….
I am an Independent….my husband is a staunch Bostonian democrat—for him to take Trump’s side ( not a fan of his) on so many issues, made me do a double-take. Why? He rationalizes the pros and cons—anyone with a certain knowlege of political issues; the economy; the will of the people; the outcome of any irresponsible action or inaction, tells a story.
Stay well, my dear, dear friend.❤️
Colt produced the AR-15 assault rifle was made 1957 / quite old, like 60yrs old.
(it was 1st made by the USSR, yup )
I’ve fired one/ heavy not and not as accurate as the M16, the one I carried.
(The receiver markings is stamped’
M16A2 property of U.S, government Cal 5.56 mm / saw that near every day.)
The newest rifle is the M4, so AK-15 is quite old used in Korea and Vietnam.
So, any person not of the military in possession of an AR-15 should be jailed, in my opinion.
I’ve seen what the assault rifles can do, 2 persons can take out an entire enemy camp in 4 minutes firing the M16.
An AK-15 can fire 500- 400 rounds per minute!
The M16 900-1,000 per minute.
Not for use outside of the military, never.
Congress needs to act, it will get bolder and worse, have no doubts.
Thanky that these shooters were never in the military, that know how to use an assault weapon to its full capacity.
It could be 600 and up dead in a stadium within minutes.
It’s become scary- what is happening to our America..
If they want to fir assault weapons and kill people then should join the military and have an actual purpose,
su000…Thank you for your comment which I assume can also apply to other assault type guns, adapted or original.
Harry…So they can go hunting for innocent animals who also have a right to live. Sarcasm intended here.
That’s the truth. Agreed
you couldn’t have said it any better Jim. Hate IS a waste. What’s happenig to this country? What happened to “love thy neighbor?” Too many shootings, so little regard for human life.So sad!!
Thanks
My deepest sympathy to her family, friends and community. May she rest in peace.
May God give each and everyone strength in this difficult time.
Heart breaking, and we have a president who has engaged in hateful, racist speech right there in El Paso. I guess building that senseless wall would not have prevented this from happening. Our president is a sociopath who is incapable of admitting where he went wrong and also incapable of showing empathy. He needs to stay away from El Paso (besides, he owes the town 500,000 from his last hate rally he held there) and also stay away from Dayton (which he idiotically called Toledo). If he really loves his country as he attests, he will stop with the hateful and racist rhetoric. But he won’t because this is how he appeals to his base. The best thing he could do for our country is to resign now because he cannot undo the fact that he has made himself the very personification of hatred. He self identifies as a nationalist, not a patriot and if anyone doesn’t agree with the aforementioned, then you are as racist as he is.
Harry…He also held a rally a few days before Dayton in Cincinnati which is just a few miles down the road.
That, Harry, is absolutely not true!! Trump defends himsef from a sea of evil and damaging words. Cannot blame him—-but, if course you do—-cynical words, Harry.
I would not engage in name-calling…but, you’re forgiven considering it is part of a democrat’s make-up.
We need peace of mind, love in our hearts, not hate—the propagation of hate is well demonstrated by Maxine Walters and her ilk.
Everyone is a scholar now? Please…..
I think those who appreciate Socialism should move to Russia, Venezuela, NK, Iran etc. It does not work. Why? The people are oppressed!! They may deny this ideology, but that’s exactly what radical demicrats crave….until their world crumbles.
The same applies to the notion that we have twelve years until the sky falls? Seriously? OMG!!!!!! Idiocy at its best—this lie made million upon million for Al Gore—he doesn’t believe it because it will not happen in the next several lifetimes—he knows it!! …and, by then, geological progress will be made. Someone should really straighten AOC out—stupid woman. She graduated College?
And this is how stupidity is seminated and becomes credible by those who have no clue about what makes the world go-round. Literally.
My thought are with u and many prayers sent your way to all the victims families of this massive shooting,it’s so sad that this happened to anyone. God will help u through this tragedy. Again,my thoughts are with u and prayers are sent. God Bless
I’m a huge fan of General Hospitals as well
It’s so crazy ! All this Damn Hate! It’s not only mental illness. You have people out in the world already going thru issues, then you have this Evil that’s running this country and teaching All this Hate and mental ill racists see this as a time to strike! And that’s what they r doing. So thank the Evil that Y’all elected!! That Evil will never be my president and never has been! Didn’t vote for Evil Racist! GOD WILL TAKE CARE OF THAT EVIL! GOD IS LOVE NOT HATE FOR ALL HIS CHILDREN! EVEN THAT EVIL THAT’S RUINING THE WORLD!!!
I am so sorry for your loss words are not sufficient. I am sorry to lose someone from our GH fan family. Sending love and prayers to your family.
My heart feels deep loss and compassion every time these senseless acts happen…again and again. Seems to me there are some real common sense things that can help…way less access and ease to to all kinds of guns would be a major help in the right direction. And words and statements about people and groups also count big time. Especially coming from those whose voices are heard often, and likewise to those who remain silent when these thoughts and words are expressed. Then there is social media and I’m afraid Pandora’s box has been open. Just wish they can find away to shut down what is called the “dark web,” which seems to be a place for a lot of sickos to live. But I won’t hold my breath on this one. On the other hand we may not have known the extent of what was hiding under rocks and in caves if social media hadn’t happened. Which brings it to a social issue we have to address as a united nation…who we are and who we want to be. And here I want to thank Michael Fairman for a place to be able to talk to each other and grieve in a civilized way, even if the conversation started with the soaps.
Nicely said, Rose. Trump’s whole campaign platform was predicated upon pitting us against “them.” Amplifying white man’s anger (what are they so angry about?) is his way of firing up his base. When his supporters shriek “send her back!” or “shoot them!” he smiles and laughs. We need our president and our leaders to act like calm, responsible grown ups. We saw McCain do this when he gently corrected a frightened and confused old lady by telling her that no, Obama was not a Muslim, that he was a good Christian man.
No, it was actually the exact opposite, my dear Harry! For the eight years preceding Trump, your guy gave the middle finger to Middle America at every opportunity! People lost homes, lifelong careers, investments and health care that they liked and had earned the right to keep whilst he was more interested in being a celebrity-like “president of the world,” bashing law enforcement, letting all and sundry cross our Southern border at immense expense to taxpayers with no concerns for the safety and welfare of our own citizens and micro-managing personal life matters like what one’s child eats for lunch and which restrooms people should be using…the latter two which should have been decided (if at all) at the state and local government levels, not by federal dictate. Instead of espousing “American exceptionalism” and trying to unite the country over the ties which bind us, he never failed to criticize with great relish our nation and its founding (both here and abroad) and sanctimoniously lecture us as to “whom we are”—-aka, what he opined we all should be—rather than allowing individual freedom of thought and expression. In no way did he represent or speak for me—or anyone I know—with his condescending rhetoric or deeds which did more to divide us and stir resentment long before Donald Trump ever assumed his campaign mantle. Yet, despite all these legitimate grievances that a broad portion of the population harbored over the previous administration’s policies and attitudes which negatively affected a wide swath of America, all the left can come up with to explain our current president’s amazing victory is “racism” (and/or “Russian collusion!”) Instead, try “realism!” We lived through the daily consequences brought by the results of elections 2008 and 2018, and found them to be totally unacceptable. Until Donald J. Trump came along to listen to our concerns and actually do something to address them, nobody in either political party demonstrated the will or gumption to do so…that is why he so strongly connected with his base and continues to remain in our good graces. And by the way, all the pejorative labeling, doxxing, milkshaking, threats, harassment, protesting, Hollywood-based mockery and censorship efforts directed toward the Trump family, GOP officials and MAGA supporters is not going to change that fact….it only serves to makes us stronger, even more unified and deeply determined to see our man re-elected in 2020. Have a good weekend, Harry!
Shay…I know your comment wasn’t addressed to me, but since we do on occasion have things in common I just wanted to say it can be a mystery to me how we see things like you expressed above sooo differently. I’m sorry about that.
@Rose…Why apologize for seeing things differently? That’s called being an individual, so, of course, we aren’t going to share the same thoughts…I’m all for that. You weren’t rude or nasty to me about whatever matters upon which we disagree, although for what it’s worth, I am just as mystified by those who fail to understand my views. But that’s life….I can deal with the fact that not everyone thinks alike and respect that, albeit I do have a huge problem when the negative methods I listed above are employed to denigrate and criticize those with whom one does not agree, particularly the constant use of the “r” word for anyone whose opinions do not comport with another person’s ideas. What I was trying to point out is that there were plenty of valid reasons that people voted for Donald Trump and they had nothing to do with hatred, just extreme disapproval for the direction of the country and the way it adversely affected either them and/or their friends and family during the last administration…..many really suffered due to the policies and decisions which were implemented, and their concerns were basically ignored and even sometimes ridiculed by those then in power. Although I didn’t come here to express my deep displeasure over a myriad number of issues throughout those eight years, I was often just as frustrated, aggravated and profoundly offended by the things your leader said and did as you apparently now are by mine. It’s just when the shoe’s on the other foot, one normally doesn’t realize that what pleases them is quite unsatisfactory to others…we’re too busy enjoying having it “our way” to recognize that roughly half of the population isn’t sharing that feeling of elation. (Except in the case of the current president…it’s nearly impossible to miss the daily barrage of OTT opposition that incessantly churns away, but hey, I do my best to tune it out…Lol.) At any rate, Rose, I always welcome and appreciate your comments and make the effort to politely reply to them, even though they often don’t post. (Like the one I sent to you last evening regarding your above interesting remarks…Just wanted you to know that I did respond….) Lastly, I’d like to close by adding that I wish we could have the privilege of meeting in person since I believe we’d have some very illuminating and civilized conversations regarding not just those subjects upon which we agree, but especially those where we do not necessarily see “eye-to-eye”…’twould be lively, for sure! And, if all else were to fail, we’d still have our mutual love for Dame Maggie and Downton Abbey to save the day!!! P.S. Just wanted to correct a typo from my original post…it was meant to be “2012,” not “2018!” My bad….
Shay…Add our mutual love for Discovery Of Witches. Speaking of Dame Maggie, wonder how she feels about Brixit and Boris Johnson. Knowing me a little guess how I think about it.
My Prayers Sorry for Everyone’s loss
My heart is broken for all these people and their families. I am so saddened to think our world is like this.May God help you through this
It’s scary just knowing that anything can happen to any of us regardless we walk out our doors,or if we’re in a vehicle and or even sitting at home or somewhere bcuz of all the violence,u never know what could happen at any given time or any given place. It’s scary to let your kids/ grandkids,etc.play outside due to the violence. I’m not sure what to think of this world anymore but it’s crazy and alot worse than ever before. My condolences go out to the families from the shootings in elpaso and Ohio. May God bless u all. I’m so very sorry for your losses.
General Hospital
Kelly Sullivan Gives High Praise to ‘General Hospital’s’ Maura West Recalling When Ava Shot Connie (Exclusive)
It was just over 13 years ago on General Hospital when Ava Jerome (Maura West) shot and killed Kate Howard/Connie Falconeri (Kelly Sullivan) in an effort to keep her quiet from revealing that Derek Wells was actually Ava’s back-from-the-dead brother, Julian Jerome (William deVry). It’s a crime that somehow Ava never has quite paid for either.
The episode back aired on August 13, 2013 and viewers had to say goodbye to Kelly Sullivan who played Kate and her alter, Connie. In the story, just before she died, Kate/Connie scrawled the letters AJ in her own blood, initially making the PCPD and Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard) think that it was AJ Quatermaine (Sean Kanan) who did the deed.
Now, Sullivan recalled sharing scenes with the three-time Daytime Emmy-winning West, during a live conversation on You Tube’s Michael Fairman Channel. Kelly was the special guest talking about her recent return to the soaps in her new role as The Bold and the Beautiful’s Darcy Dylan.

FIRST IMPRESSIONS OF MAURA WEST
Speaking of her final GH scenes and working with Maura West, Sullivan gave her then GH co-star major props. “If you’re going to be shot by somebody (on the soaps), you want to be shot by Maura West, c’mon!”
Maura West debuted back in May 2013 as Ava, and Sullivan remembered when the As the World Turns favorite began on GH. “I remember when Maura West first arrived at GH. She walked in with this cute little bob (hairdo) and she’s just delicious,” shared Sullivan.
A STREETCAR NAMED DESIRE
Kelly revealed more about Maura, adding “I think she’s amazing! I remember right before I left the show, someone suggested, and I would still love to do this with her, if she ever want to, but someone suggested that they wanted to direct the stage play A Streetcar Named Desire with Maura and I, where I would play Stella and she would play Blanche! Wouldn’t that be great?”
Speaking of the Ava/Connie showdown scenes, Sullivan expressed, “On television and on General Hospital specifically, Maura West is able to play a character who does the most horrendous things and you still care about her and that’s the mark of a really great actor. In other words, you’re able to be liked in the midst of the most horrendous things, and as a performer not shying away from that, and to just have the courage to do what’s on the page (in the script).”

KELLY SULLIVAN PARTING THOUGHTS AS SHE LEFT GENERAL HOSPITAL
Kelly also shared her sentiments when she walked off the set of General Hospital after her run back in August of 2013. “I really was honored. Every day I would go to work and I would say a little prayer, which is I want to do justice for my character, explained Kelly. “It’s between me and my character. I get to walk this path with her and to leave the show on that note, which is, I left every out there. I just gave it my all and again what an honor it was to play Kate/Connie.”
You can catch the full conversation with Kelly where she talks about her time on General Hospital, The Young and the Restless where she played Sage Warner and now The Bold and the Beautiful below.
So, do you remember the Ava and Connie scenes where Ava shot and killed her? What did you think of Kelly Sullivan’s sentiments about Maura West? Share your thoughts via the comment section. But first, watch the reveal where Ava recalls murdering Connie below!
The question of will Steve Burton (Jason Morgan) stay awhile at General Hospital after his recent extended hiatus from the show earlier this year, has reportedly been answered.
TMZ via court documents obtained in Burton’s ongoing legal battle with his ex-wife Sheree Gustin, shared that Steve actually inked a new three year deal with the ABC soap opera back in June.
That is significant because it was June when Burton returned back to work as Jason. In addition, the court filing confirmed that Burton had already moved back to California from Tennessee.

STEVE’S HIATUS AND HIS RETURN TO PORT CHARLES
GH fans will recall, it was back in February of 2026, that Burton announced via his Instagram that he was stepping away from his role of Jason Morgan for short break and pointed to wanting to spend quality time with his new wife, Michelle Lundstrom Burton with whom he tied the knot back on May 17, 2025.
Steve expressed at that time, “I’m newly married and looking forward to spending some quality time with my family.” It was back on March 25 that viewers saw Jason carted away by the WSB after taking the fall for Rocco Falconeri (Finn Carr) who shot then WSB Director Ross Cullum (Andrew Hawkes).
Burton returned to work on June 1, and due to General Hospital taping roughly six weeks ahead of air, made his on-screen comeback on the July 13 episode.
GOING FOR GOLD AT THE UPCOMING DAYTIME EMMYS
Then, Steve and his enduring fans got an extra special treat on the same day, when it was revealed on Extra that he was nominated for the upcoming 53rd annual Daytime Emmy Awards in the Outstanding Lead Actor in a Daytime Drama Series category.
Steve previously won in the Supporting Actor category for his work as General Hospital’s Jason in 1998 and as The Young and the Restless’ Dylan McAvoy in 2018.
Now with Jason and Britt’s (Kelly Thiebaud) relationship seemingly hitting the skids, plus Jason’s commitment to staying out of mob life to focus on being present for his son Danny Morgan (Asher Antonyzyn), what does the future hold for the fan favorite character? Stay tuned.
So, happy to hear that Steve Burton signed a new three year deal with General Hospital? Knowing that, what storyline would you like to see Jason get involved and with who? Share your thoughts and theories via the comment section.

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.
