For the February 11 streaming special, viewers can expect to hear a bevy of Broadway classics and jazzy standards. The streaming event will be directed by John Dietrich, who also directed each of the live stage performances.
Dedicated fans also will have the opportunity for one-on-one virtual meet-and-greets with their favorite soap stars on Saturday, February 13. Further information on tickets and the lineup of special guests will be announced later this month.
From 2005-2011, the stars of ABC Daytime took the stage at New York City’s Town Hall one night each year for ABC Daytime Salutes Broadway Cares. The evening featured dynamic production numbers, heartfelt ballads and hilarious skits. Now, 10 years after that final performance, the iconic ABC Daytime actors revisit their performances as they help raise money for those impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic.
When the event began in 2005. it was for a one-night benefit concert to celebrate All My Children’s 35th Anniversary. With overwhelming support from fans, the event continued for six more years and included cast members from One Life to Live, General Hospital and co-hosts of The View. Over its seven-year run, ABC Daytime Salutes Broadway Cares raised an incredible $1.85 million.
“This event is truly one of a kind,” Broadway Cares Executive Director Tom Viola said. “We are so thankful to the stars from ABC Daytime for joining us again as we relive moments from this delightful tradition, while helping to provide lifesaving medication, healthy meals and emergency support to those struggling during this ongoing pandemic.”
“It was such an incredible privilege and joy to join my fellow co-stars to perform in the seven ABC Daytime Salutes concerts to benefit Broadway Cares/ Equity Fights AIDS,” said former All My Children star Susan Lucci. “There are no fans like ABC Daytime fans. Their love and support continue to astonish us. We can’t wait to share these special performances with them and help raise money for so many in need during this difficult time.”
Lucci also shared her excitement on her Instagram account expressing: “We’re getting the fans and cast back together!!! Join us on Thursday, February 11 at 8pm for “ABC Daytime: Back on Broadway”—a fabulous online event revisiting seven years of singing, dancing and plot twists, featuring your favorite ABC Daytime stars. And it’s all to help Broadway Cares support our friends and neighbors who are struggling during this pandemic. Watch the stream at

what a slap in the puss. he is appearing on a show that airs in most markets the same time GH is on the screen:<(
This says allot to me.
I will not watch, I'll be watching GH as I have since 1963……..
see ya SB……next he'll be on Kattie:<(
Not me…I hate what Carlavati has done to GH…..it’s his fault for bringing the idiots over from OLTL. I have already started to watch Y&R and I will continue. The day that Starr came on GH I started watching it on DVR so I could FF her.
I quit watching and supporting GH because I got so sick of GH fans complaining about the OLTL characters being a part of the show…. I can’t wait for the day when OLTL is on, and the fans of the show can have our characters back, and the GH fans that are all in an uproar can go back to watching Sonny 24/7 and all of the crime-mob mess that you enjoy so much.
Well Torrey, you seem to forget that because we are having these OLTL idiots shoved down our throats, we no lnger get to see Nancy Lee Grahn (an Emmy winning actress whose talent knows no bounds), Haley Pullos (who is the best younger actress GH has had since Kimberly McCullough), Kelly Monaco (supposedly a lead actress) and countless other GH regulars. Last timeI checked Molly and Alexis were not in the mob!! Sorry OLTL could never hold my interest other than Dorian, Bo and Marty.
the only idiots are the ones ones who think the actors from oltl are idiots
You must be high or something..lol.
Torrey, if you’re sick of fans complaining online (which is EXACTLY what you’re doing!), then stop going on all these soap news sites. I have zero respect for people who claim “I stopped watching because of blah blah blah”. So you weren’t a real fan after all, so why are you still talking about a soap you don’t watch anymore? As a true fan and I stick through it all (yes, even when storylines aren’t so great, there is such a thing called DVR), and to see people brew such negativity is saddening. I’ve seen people still complain YEARS after… Read more »
You can watch the Talk online 24hrs a day via any internet device.. 🙂
That was my Excat thought as well. No I will not be watching. For what? So he can say he’s going to YR and give another slap in the face to the GH fans? No thank you! Had he been a bit more honest I might have felt differently.
i agree totally a 100% slap in the face to gh fans, why? if he wanted to go to y&r why not just say so i love steve aka jason morgan on GH am very disappointed in the way he handled his leaving at gh in which he had every right to for the move to his family in TN but to go to y&R which is also filmed in ca just why not stay with GH he will not last in that role look at aka laura from gh and diane aka carly from atwt when you have LOYAL… Read more »
I agree with you,my friend… slap in the butt from Steve Burton, I thought he was supposed to spent time with his own family.
Not now, not ever! I hope Y&R is boycotted by all loyal GH fans. Burton is a liar and JFP is a terrible writer. I don’t get how he can do this to the show that made him and his many many loyal fans.
Unless he is going to say that his going to the Y&R is just a ugly nasty rumor I don’t care what else he could possibly have to say.
Oh gee,he’s appearing on a “CBS” daytime talk show to make a big announcement,I wonder whatever could it be?
No.
I won’t be watching The Talk – never have, never will. And I don’t care how people get mad because he left General Hospital. He is his own person – he can do what he wants. However, I am all for Steve joining Y&R provided no more current talent at Y&R is shown the door to accommodate him AND provided that he is not paired with Victoria! Now that Billy Miller is staying, I want Billy and Victoria to stay together. Steve most likely will not have chemistry with Jessica Collins – something just tells me. I suppose he could… Read more »
I agree with you! Steve needed to make a change, has moved to Nashville to be with Family (where Scott Reeves lives and Jonathan Jackson )and can commute from there. Going to another show , is a bonus. We all have dvrs so i will be checking out Y&R (used to watch every day as well) and will never stop watching GH . Over the years many actor changes have happened and we have loved all of them as well. I have been a fan of GH since L&L on the run days and will be forever. I am a… Read more »
Agree with you both. I am sure he is coming on TV to say what I guess he’s going too he’s going to Y&R but better to say on TV then send a tweet and not face the music so to speak. I will miss him on GH but hey, it’s his life and may he be wished the best in anything he does. I love GH, I am not sure I will watch Y&R but thats Ok..I hope he does well! Geez…hope if I ever change jobs I dont have the world hate me 🙁
Avery had an ex-husband and the guy she had the affair with, so depending on which one SB is playing- he will start off with her, chemistry or not. Personally I like the idea of Sharon with the New York cop they just introduced. He would be someone totally different for her, someone more down to earth. He is also the only new cast member that I have liked, only wish he had more screen time.
wow, this is all so stupid, or they think we are stupid, he’s going on a cbs show to make a special announcement that what? he’s a trader! i’ve lost all respect for steve burton, big deal, so he’ll join y&r, Jill Faren Phelps will be happy, and who really cares anymore, talk about the worst kept secret/betrayal.
1005 RIGHT!!!
HELL NO!!! IF HE GOES TO Y&R I HAVE LOST EVERY BIT OF RESPECT FOR STEVE BURTON THAT I HAD AND I WILL NEVER EVER WATCH HIS BAND PORT CHUECK AGAIN. WHAT A SLAP IN THE FACE TO ALL HIS LOYAL FANS.
he’s going to have to rename his band, to ‘trader’ or jfp bitch!
i could not have said it better!!!!
No. I have no interest in seeing Steve Burton on The Talk or on Y&R. No offense to Steve. I’m sure he’s a nice enough guy. But Y&R has become unrecognizable the last few weeks with all the new cast editions and set changes. The first couple changes were nice and refreshing but it’s gone too far. So disappointing.
Wow! This feels kind of like a low blow to GH…
yeah mike feel the same way
They say to a little ego is a good thing. But this guy is just out for himself.
Who, exactly, SHOULD he be out for? I’m a fan but I surely do not raise his kids or pay his bills.
Good for him. Carlivati obviously doesn’t know his backside from a hole in the ground and I’ve lost interest in GH after 30 years of watching. I support any of the veteran castmembers who leave and find new opportunities to utlize their talent. Soaps are almost a thing of the past and they shouldn’t let their livelihood be dependant on “loyalty”. If the execs chose to fire Burton they sure wouldn’t have let loyalty stop ’em.
I will watch it.
So, he didn’t leave GH so his family could move to a nice little town. He left GH cause he was tired of playing the same character for years & wanted something new. If he was going back to GH, he wouldn’t announce it, or he would on the View on ABC. I like GH better since he left, Im glad AJ is back. Gives Michael,Sonny, & the girls more to do.
I don’t miss him on GH so go on to Y&R if you’d like. I’m not going to watch Y&R anytime soon; it’s always been a boring show. Lots of great characters & actors to love & support on GH!
Acting is a job. I do not understand why people are upset with SB because he decided to take another job. His life. His family. His decision. He doesn’t need to ask for our approval.
Geez, finally someone I can agree with! He left one job to go to another one! So what?! He probably got tired of playing the same character, day in and day out. Don’t other people get tired of their jobs and start looking for a fresh start? I know I’ve done it a few times. IT’S A JOB. THAT’S IT. Sometimes I think these “fans” really are FANatical…!
This! Who did he “betray”? Not me! I follow Burton’s Twitter feed and he posts pics all the time of his son’s football team practices…IN TENESSEE lol. He didn’t lie. He just didn’t say he would be open to other soap roles!
agree
It’s not that Steve took another job…it’s that he wasn’t up front about it. All the “cover” stories as to why he was leaving GH were obviously just that…cover stories. If Steve had just been honest about why he was leaving, I think people would have been more understanding. Twenty years is a long time to play the same role and I certainly would have understood if he had just said it was time to move on to another role. Since he and JFP are such good buddies, I was not surprised by this move. I just think it’s funny… Read more »
Do we ever know the “real” reason that someone leaves? Perhaps he was unhappy with the new writers. Maybe he was asked to take a pay cut. And lets not forget that he did actually sell his house and move to TN. All he really had to say when asked if he was leaving GH was “yes.”
Sometimes the public doesn’t have the full story, often actors are pushed out, but in order to receive a big paid out they are bound by a legal agreement never to reveal the real cause. I am not saying this was the case, but sometimes we just don’t know. Also, he may had every intention of doing what he said he was going to do and his friend JFP talked him into this as a favor for her. But even if he did it like so many think he did, with lies- the old adage of to err is human… Read more »
agree with you 100%
I agree with you !! I also watch Y & R so it will be nice to see him on there. But I will not be watching the Talk because GH is on at the same time 🙂
agree!! They become actors to play different characters after all.
GH is better off without him. The only storyline left for him was to get his memory back as Jason Q and he refused to do it. Most actors like to mix up their character and test their acting chops but SB seemed content wearing a black tshirt, flashing a gun and blinking. I wish him the best but really have no interest watching him on Y&R. Is it really a surprise that JFP hired her favorite GH pet after getting rid of vets like Genie and not inviting Tristan back as originally planned?
I do not like big fat liars. He left GH with the lame excuse he wanted to spend time with his family. I watch Y&R but this might make me not watch it anymore and especially since I cannot stand JFP.
i agree nancy what a liar and he should have been honest
I hate to mention this but;
Steve B is not anyone’s property and needs no permission to further his career anyway he sees fit to 🙂 and if or if not some won’t watch Y&R (ya sure) I’d bet he could care less and your loss not his LOL 🙂
If SB can run some out , so to say, then he has a lot of power over ya lol 🙂
I’m looking forward to see SB portraying a different character ;….
…………………. he is no longer Jason ..
Good luck, Steve Burton. As an actor or any working person, he can seek out/choose his opportunities. If he felt GH was not the place for him, he left. f Y&R and JFP made him an offer, well he accepted it. I love my shows and characters as much as th enext fan, but shows evolve, actors leave, roles are recast. I hope Y&R can accommodate Burton as the show failed us and Maura West, Jennifer Landon, Gene Francis, Debbie Morgan, and others. Let’s hope Y&R and Burton are better for this development. GH will go on successfully without Jason… Read more »
Amen !! 🙂
I loved Steve Burton as Jason for the better part of the last 21 years, and I truly miss his presence on GH, and my choice would be to have him return to GH, BUT as I have said on this site before, and as others mentioned above, we all make career choices that are best for us and our families, so why should Steve Burton not be afforded that same choice? Plain and simple, it is his right to do what he believes is best for he and his family. I also believe Steve did not want to hurt… Read more »
Also, this coming week on GH, John McBain gives Sam the news that Faison shot and killed Jason, so she will now work on accepting this. Again, that closure storyline coinciding with Steve’s Y&R announcement is probably not coincidental, and to me, could possibly point to his being “asked” not to discuss his move for a period of time.
Very good point remember when Trevor St John told everyone no one asked him to come back to OLTL and he was in the final shot. I liked it better when the audience was not tipped off on every little thing. He told everyone he was leaving and he did ,he told everyone he was moving his family and he did, I do not think he ever said I will never accept a job on another soap. I would however demand not to wear black t/shirts over there. Lol
lol…they didn’t find the body so i assume Jason floated 125 miles down the river hitting his face on rocks and wood floating on top…someone found him and has been nursing him back to health his face destroyed and his memory gone…alas a wonderful doctor has pity on him and gives him a new face and a new name (Mortimer)..he accidentally wanders into Port Charles falls in love with Sam, who has moves on with John. Just before John and Sam’s wedding all of Jason’s memories come back to him..He crashes the wedding declaring his love for Sam, but she… Read more »
This is for Judy- you realize you just made some poor writer throw away a year’s worth of story line because you reveal everything they were going to do. I don’t know what your line of work is Judy- but I think you missed your calling as soap opera writer- all up to last line, I would have watch a story like that. Too funny.
Totally agree.
Well said Elhu!!! Totally agree with you!!! Tired of the nasty rants! Steve has every right to do what is best for him, his family and his career. I love GH and I love the character Jason. Would have been over the moon to have him come back as Jason Q. I even think it would have been fun to see him as Jason Q be with Carly. However it does look like he is going to Y&R and he will be great there too… unless the writing and character are not done well. If JFP cares about him… you… Read more »
I completely agree with those supporting Burton’s right to make any decision he see’s fit. He owed GH NOTHING and he never said he was done with soaps. He said he wanted to try new things after 21 years in the same roll. None of us know the particulars of his contract or his plans with his family. I know he did indeed move to TB as he’s proudly been sharing photos of his time coaching his son’s new junior league footballs team there. We have no idea what lead to this decision or how he will conduct his family… Read more »
I don’t care what he had to say on a show that is on when GH
IS on! A SLAP IN THE FACE!!!! So much for country living! He
should have been honest with his fans! GH should announce
they’re getting a new Jason on MONDAY!!! The part of Jason
Morgan will now be played by….,,,,,
LOL Steve owes nobody nothing and surly no explanations for he does with his life..
He’s moving on and I’m gonna be watching him SB, Y&R..
It is time for him try new challenges before he is too old to become anything more than Jason Morgan..
🙂
true but he will lose alot of his fan base as i feel like he should have been honest with his fans at least maybe he could not say at the time he left gh but u know he may regret his move to y&R and i cannont see any chemistry with avery or even nick she is okay in my opinion but do not care for her at all with nick i am a nick and phyllis fan and it is uck sleeping with his ex wife sister just my opinion maybe steve burton is only doing a few… Read more »
Sandy… calm down.
I agree with you wholeheartedly. Just be straight forward, that’s all! He’s off my list, too………..watch , he’ll play another thug!
Steve Burton making a ‘Decision” for himself and didn’t ask for his fan permission. How could he? Steve didn’t have to tell anyone his plans except his family. He announced to his fans he was leaving General Hospital, he doesn’t owe you the fans anymore than that. Some are mad because Jason and Sam didn’t get the happy ending they wanted. Be happy you got your “Sam and Jason’s baby” you craved for. Now some of his so-called fans come out with the nasty hate for a man , a actor choosing to move on. This is not Jason moving… Read more »
Brad Pitt? lol, if only. steve burton claims he’s a man of faith, can someone let him know lying isn’t part of being a man of faith.
yes aria agree!!!
right on sandy agree 100% with u
I can’t wait to see Steve on Y&R. As much as I hated to lose Jason on GH the new writers really screwed up his character. I like how The Talk promotes soaps. I wish ABC would do the same.
I don’t want to give the Talk ratings. It feels like steve lied to his devoted fans. He said he was leaving to be with his family. If that was true why isn’t he coming back to GH rather than going to Y&R? It is not that actors can’t change it is the fact that fans feel we have been lied to….Steve what happened on GH to make you leave??.
Steve did not lie to anyone.. He said he wanted to move his family to Tn and he did.. He said he wanted more time with his family and he as had more more with time them.. He has been wanting to leave GH for a few years and he has said so.. His contract was up and his house finally solid, he left GH and moved, something he had wanted to do for a long while. Steve is in his prime and if ever there is/was a time for him to leave Jason behind and find new acting challenges… Read more »
I have to say, if this is true….Steve is going to YandR…..it is a betrayal. He could have stayed at GH for the rest of his life…at a comfortable pay. Instead he betrayed his fans. Not good.
How is it a betrayal? Because after 20+ years he wasn’t feeling like portraying the same character. People need change and this is the change he is likely wanting. Plus, I don’t believe Steve enjoyed his final years/months on GH at all.
So excited!!
I do not need to offend anyone. BUT some of you really need to grow up!! This is a soap opera and not real life. I welcome actors switching things up. He played “Stone Face” for so many years it will be nice to see him in a different character with different actors. As well people do change there minds like when people retire. They get board and miss the work. They want to do something different or change things up. There is nothing wrong with that. He is not owned by us or GH. He should be able to… Read more »
Just the idea of Steve Burton and Amelia Heinle in scenes togerther is making me scream of joy ! I always wanted Amelia as a recast Brenda on GH but this is even beter !! YAY!!!! Thanks Steve !!! Now if only they could recast Lily, Y&R would be perfect
Amelia as Brenda? Ouy! That would be the biggest mistake and worst re-cast since bringing Kirsten Storms back to the series as Maxie. Rebecca Budig would have made a better Brenda than Amelia. I’m still hoping they recast Victoria with Sarah J. Brown on Y&R, or even Tamara Braun. Those two would excel in the role and bring some fire back to the character that hasn’t been seen since Heather Tom in ’03.
Lily doesn’t need recasting at all.
SB is not a traitor! He’s had the SAME job for 21 years and the opportunity for change. How many people still want to work a job they started at the age of 20? It makes sense. Also, he was probably forbidden contractually to say anything about changing networks.
At least he stayed in soaps, supporting our beloved genre!
And, as both a GH and OLTL fan, GH is great! We’ve had Anna, Duke, Robert, Faison, Noah, Heather, and Lucy show up in the past year.
It wouldnt have been so bad if he was just hinest with his fans. Everybody has a reason for what they do in life. Telling everyone he was leaving to spend more time with his family and then findingout rhere is a possibility he will join the y&r family stinks. I hope this is not true. I would like to believe there is a good reason for this i thought he was a religous.
Love it, but a slap in the face to General Hospital and ABC.
exactly!!!
I love how some are upset because we are upset with SB. We have every right to feel they way we do as do you. I don’t go around saying why are u ok with it you should be mad. We each have our take On the sistuation. I think he should have said Hey I’m taking a couple of months off and I’m ready to play other roles. As great as playing Jason was. Ok I can understand that. But he didn’t. He made it sound as if he was retiring like he was going to Tenesse and maybe… Read more »
C;mon.. Steve is not obligated to share his personal life and plans with anyone other than his family ..
He said his contract was up and he wanted out / truth
He said he wanted to move his family to Tn, he did / truth
He wanted more time with his boys and he has / truth
We are fans not his family..what he decides to do with his private life is none of our business/ we are not privileged to know his business lol …
In the old days people who do that would be called a busybody or nosy-snoop LOL 🙂
No one is saying he has to discuss his decisions with his fans. It’s the way he did it I have a problem with. Like I said your entitled to feel the way you want, as am I.
And like
You said in the old days when someone went around telling people they were wrong we called them a know it all. Lol 😀
This is likely his confirmation that he is joining Y&R as Dylan. I’m semi-excited about it. I cannot wait to see him in a better role than that of Jason. Jason got annoying the last few years. I want him to portray a good guy, and maybe even make a friendly connection with Nick Newman! That guy needs some male friends to shoot the bull with!
Yes Steve played a Quatermaine but then he began not wanting to do this or that… the only way they could play him was Stone Cold. I’d like to see him ACT different but on stage he has a difficult time feeling comfortable with Port Chuck and although I am sure he loves it…he is not a Scott, Brandon, or Bradford. Is he good looking and a smart business man yes! Was he open and honest to fans? Will he do whatever he is asked to do on Y&R? He won’t be the big man on campus there…or will he?… Read more »
There will never be pleasing some people about GH…They complain about all mob all the time, they complain that OLTL stars take up all the time…Whether its true or not, they perceive it when their favorites aren’t on…
Will the shows be aired on television or internet or both?
I have been a fan of soaps since the late 60’s. I dont know if you call Dark Shadows a soap but it started there when I was in college. Everyone on my floor in college would work their class schedules around so they wouldnt miss Dark Shadows. I started watching the soaps when I got married in 1969. I have been watching One Life to Live and All My Children ever sing then. I wa so upset when they took them off the air. I am glad to hear they are bringing them back. Cant wait to see them… Read more »
i do remember dark shadows and loved it have loved soaps for yrs and
cannot wait for oltl and amc to return via internet or anyway we can get them back
rrWe sll should be happy for Steve Burton! He is icon soap actor….He played the character of Jason Morgan Quatemine for a long time….. And if you look at his fans, and non fans he 20,000 views, at SOC boards (Y&R)…..Oh!, don’t get me started at GH, to many views!! I ‘ve was a suppporter of JASAM, since she lost her baby in Nov.2004……I could tell you about all their major videos from A to Z So Steve Burton is going to get a lot of mileage from going to Y&R The question should be ”What’s Next For Sam”? If… Read more »
By the way, I forgot
Don’t “The Talk come on at 2pm, Eastern Time?
Is that same time General Hospital comes on? in the East?
Steve Burton vs General Hospital….who will win?
…….well well
GH I will record the talk on another network..Gh is2 but in the west its 4 pm..just add US Superstaions and you will get timeshifting
The Talk come on at 1pm. in the Central Time Zone.
I do think Steve Burton needs to announce his intentions to his GH fans – should have already done so. The Talk is on opposite General Hosp in Orlando, Fl – so I will watch GH. I am sure Steve’s announcement will be shown on all the Entertainment Shows and we can get the info there. Also on the Web. I will be watching GH as usual – sadly without Steve (Jason). I hope he has a reasonable explanation for his “lying to his GH fans” if he knew already he was going to Y & R when he departed… Read more »
right on girl!!!
WOW! The outrage of some of the fans here is pretty unbelievable to me. I for one will be watching The Talk as I hardly watch GH these days anyways. I don’t blame Steve for going to Y&R after the way Cartini dogged him. He was a 21 year vet on GH and the minute they took over, they started pushing him to the background and writing his character completely OOC so they could prop ME as the hero of the show. Steve, like many of the fans, was excited for the payoff of Jasam getting married. He said so… Read more »
I agree with you 100%
Agree, perfectly said!
It’s not so much that Steve Burton is going to be on another show (although I would prefer to see him with a great storyline on GH), it’s that he seems to have lied when he left GH. He said he was leaving in order to spend more time with his family. Then, not long after he leaves GH, he appears to be going to another soap. I think what GH fans are having a hard time with is why didn’t he come back to GH if he was going back to soaps? He knows how loved Jason is and… Read more »
i could not have said it better myself thank you for saying what i was thinking
I will only watch GH too Steve Burton was a major character..a lot are going to be disappointed if he doesn’t come back..anda lot of fans I would bet feel as strongly…if he wants his charactere to evolve let it..there is a whole lot of ways and stories it could go
Whether he lied or not, it’s HIS business. Frankly, I would rather him lie about something silly like this, then something that actually mattered. We do not know that he lied. Maybe he had all intentions of leaving showbiz for a while; maybe he knew Jill said she would get him on Y&R if and when she could; maybe he knew he would be joining Y&R and left GH to have some time off before he started filming. He airs on 1/29/13 so it isn’t like he has been taping for months. I say just leave the man alone. Personally… Read more »
Snooze, oops sorry! This is deemed as break news, I’ll tune into my GH where good storylines are breaking havoc everyday.
Kelly should have a fabo year…..THAT’S ALL
Ron C. put your thinking cap on!!!
And try to grab the some of those ratings!
Because Mr. Burton is gonna getting the “goo-goo eyes , trust me!!!!
I don’t know if he lied or not…..Frankly, I don’t give————–
I care about GH only!
Mr. Burton got pubilicty up the A–
Get Sam Mcall:

Burton is back with his girl,JFP…whatever!
I agree. I’m ready for Sam to be back front and center.
He’s getting so much pubicity behind this……I don’t like itt!
Ron gotta do something for Kelly Monaco!!!!
Make sure Michael Easton trim his hair, just a little bit, or like
he had it on PORT CHARLES, and OLTF….I enjoy Mcbain interaction
with STUD MUFFIN, on September 24th……He was good with Jason

Ron is gonna have Sam and John get married+ Adopt his son…Aleast I hope
RON——GO BIG, OR GO HOME!
I’m ready for a change for Kelly!!!!
Steve change, so it’s time for Kelly!
I am looking forward to seeing Steve play a different role. Very exciting.
GH is better without him.
YAY! I just heard this news. As an ex-Y&R viewer, I am THRILLED that changes are being made to the show. Had no idea Maria Murderous Bell was fired!!! I quit watching last year after the utter destruction and humiliation of Sharon Cases’ character. But to hear positive things are on the horizon is making me excited to tune in again! Didn’t know who SB was until I Googled him and WOW! He and SC would make a smokin’ hot couple IF rumors are true! If not, I refuse to watch until the writers treat SC and her character with… Read more »
I hope the soap world won’t cancel GH and Y&R after reading all the negative comments on the net. I don’t care if he changes shows…I am just glad any soaps are even still ON TV (whether I watch them or not). Complain too much and you wont have anything to complain about.
Oh, oh….maybe he is announcing he is taking acting lessons!
Sorry, but he was boring on GH and unless he has some major overhaul in his abilities will be boring on Y&R. Though, I should be thanking him. Since I usually FF through anything involving Victor, Cane, Lily I can add Burton’s scenes and zip through an episode in 20 minutes.
Oh, and would lay bets that although initially he will be tied to Avery (presumed dead lover) he will end up as Sharon’s newest squeeze.
i have been watching gh over 30 years and always liked the charcter jason morgan ,people feeling betryed by steve is ridicoulus he is an actor and makes his own decisions on his career for himself nd his family not for anyone else i wish him the best on whatever he decides ,people wanted to see him back on tv again and it looks like that will happen even if its not on gh ,if you are a fan then just wish him good luck with his decision and let it go good luck steve …
I know but he lied he said it was because he wanted to spend time with his family.
one life to live can’t replace Steve with someone else Jason was one of the reasons I watch General Hospital…its like replacing Sonny and if the part is not revived alot of people like me will tune out… Now the Todd and Star playing in General Hospital is great but remember they are playing same characters I would hate to see them go back to One life…./Todd is such a believable, mischief making character he is estgablished on GH so please leave him there.. the only thing after all this timeis AMC and who David was going to be his… Read more »
Maybe they should take Steve cast of AMC and One Life and create a new soap with same characters but different plot..
GH should reward his disloyalty by having Jason’s body recovered and positively identified. No back from the dead option.
Come on people, these are soap operas! Since when is anyone really dead?
DISAPPOINTED! He could be honest with his fans:(
