General Hospital
On General Hospital, Does Alexis Mow Down Julian? Watch The Promo!

Courtesy/ABC
Doesn’t Alexis (Nancy Lee Grahn) already have a history of getting behind a car and hitting someone? Sooo, then this Turkey Day plot turn could spell disaster for the boozing Ms. Davis!
In the latest ABC promo for General Hospital, while the Quartermaines and more gather for their annual Thanksgiving gatherings, and Lante looks to saying their “I-Do’s”, Alexis is in bad shape and Julian (William deVry) may, or may not, be her intended target!
As Alexis is behind the wheel of her car, we see Julian walking, then we we see a body flying after a car goes right for him. Alexis cries, “What have I done?” But was Alexis just watching as this all happens and not the guilty party behind the wheel … or … will it be revealed as is intended in the promo that she ran down the once man of her dreams?
Watch the promo after the jump, and let us know what you think of this latest Julexis conundrum? Comment below!
Julian? I would rather she hit Jordan, Nathan, Nina, Curtis, Andre, Griffin or Finn!
Well, I can agree with half that list, Timmmbo….and add Hayden and Alexis herself! Either have her hit a tree once she’s completed her vehicular homicidal handiwork or perhaps forget to put her car in park before she gets out of her car to inspect her “roadkill,” then, whoops…Alexis gets plowed down, too!!!!
But Shay, who would burn the cookies?
You mean the “red wine brownies!” Lol…
I would only keep 2 from UR list, and U wouldn’t be pleased
w/ my choices …Sorry. Is Alexis going fast enough to knock
some serious sense into him…doubtful. And we all know he
won’t become her next casualty, otherwise we’re looking at
Julian being her third victim. And she has the ba–s to call
Sonny and Julian unscrupulous !!!!! REALLY
Sorry, Fanny. No comparison between mob bosses and a woman with a disease…because at this point Alexis has a drinking problem…she’s not out partying.
@Rebecca, hi… Yes of course I realize Alexis is an alcoholic
and that it’s a disease. That being said… whatever happened
to the real Alexis…Smart,witty, brilliant attorney, great friend
good mother…. Julian happened and I get it, I really do….but
not with eyes wide shut !!! She chose to pretty much ignore
the ugly truth about Julian again and again…. Even when he
admitted to ordering Duke’s murder, she still married him. So
now she’s a Mobsters wife… Did she truly believe her love
would change him, make him a better man…When a man
tells you who he really is believe him. When reality finally
sets in she turns on him…he sees this as a betrayal and
momentarily snaps tries to kill her and all hell breaks loose.
She drowns her sorrow in the hope that it will help her for-
get… That it was all torn to shreds, love, career, self esteem.
But again…all the life altering decisions Alexis made were
done so before the booze became an issue.
All I can say is that NLG is bringing it home with this alcoholism story. She really plays a drunk so very well. The mornings after a bender? Well, you can see the self loathing on her face and if you have a loved one who is an alcoholic, you know that look so well.
NLG is the Meryl Streep of daytime. I just love her.
Hi again Fanny. As Jax said to Carly, ” We don’t choose who we love…” I make allowances when I watch soaps; there are things that so go against my grain that even suspending my disbelief doesn’t change how I feel. Michael returning Avery to Sonny for example. Michael forgiving Sonny without so much as a lingering conflict. But when it comes to love on GH…I kinda go with the flow if I like the two people in the couple. I love Alexis; always have. And, she’s still all the things you described…smart, witty, a brilliant attorney…she’s still a great mother and friend.
I still like Julian. There’s something about him I just am drawn to. And, I do believe he did and still does love Alexis. I’ve come up with several theories of why he attacked her. One: fantastical…Helena cursed the knife that she returned to Alexis…the same knife that she used to slit Alexis’s mother’s throat. If we are to believe that Helena truly can curse people…than that would exonerate Julian in my eyes for attacking her.
My second more realistic thought is he literally lost his mind when everything started unraveling. He killed Carlos, he felt guilt…but he did it to preserve his life with Alexis. I think when she couldn’t accept that he had lied again, had killed again, he just assumed she’d still stand by him. His love was that deep; he thought their relationship impenetrable. When she went against him by wearing the wire I think he literally snapped from hurt, shock, feelings of betrayal, realization that he was going to lose her and his family…temporary insanity! I tell myself that even though he held the knife to her throat he never would have killed her. If Sonny hadn’t stepped in this is how I want to think it would have gone down:
Julian shaking with fury, holding the knife to her throat, but repeatedly asking “why.” Why, how could you betray me. He thought she loved him..their family..how could she just throw it all away…all the while crying. And then, throwing her away from him, dropping the knife, running away..
Lol. That’s my story and I’m sticking to it. As for Alexis, her current state just cries human to me. She loved him deeply and truly believed he had changed. You don’t get over that kind of love…particularly when it all unraveled so quickly..or the shock, the brutality and betrayal she felt. Couple that with the harsh judgment she received from everyone, losing her license, her pride, her reputation, her life with her husband…makes sense to me.
People go through great times in their lives. Other times, they fall apart if the burden is too great.. Cumulative. She’ll bounce back. Eventually…
One more thing Fanny. If you recall Julian explained to Alexis how he had grown up…in a very cold environment with a mob father. He didn’t feel nurtured, he wasn’t encouraged to feel love or want family. His newfound love for her and his children gave him the incentive to change. So when he told her he would, I truly believe he meant it and so did Alexis. And then…he didn’t. Or should I say he too, fell off the wagon.
Back only to wish Micheal, You, Shay Celia and all other posters too numerous to mention a Happy Thanksgiving…it doesnt look like ill be coming back full time-its been a horrible year and its getting worse!…Sorry, i did not respond last time-been deeply depressed!!!
My dearest Jimmy….I wish you find some solace and joy, somehow.
Have faith, my friend. It will not abandon you. Easier said than done, I know it seems that way now. But, my faith, my husband, my son and family picked me up and carried me during my darkest moments.
Much love.
Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours.
Hoping to hear from you soon.
Jimh…Hoping you feel better soon. You are probably the first commenter I wanted to follow when I started on MF a few years ago. As a “story teller” in your own right you always bring humor and wit to whatever you add. So Happy Thanksgiving to you, and look forward to reading more from you about our imaginary alter universes.
Jim, you are a staple here at Michael Fairman. I hope and pray you have a family member or a church that you can turn to. I dont know what you are going through but remember this, you are a snowflake, we all are, without each of us, there would be no snowman to build, no snowball to throw or not enough snow to ski, hang in there, we need you, EVERYONE counts! Happy Thanksgiving buddy.
Oh, Jim, so sorry to read of your troubles. You’ve given us all so much joy and food for thought with your posts. I know cliches don’t really help, so let me just say that there are people who care, even if we’re only online. That, along with my faith and my books and music and the great acting on our shows, always encourage me to see the good sides of life, even in terrible darkness. My prayers will be with you and remember we need you.
Best wishes jimh…try to have a Happy Thanksgiving and “see you” when you feel ready to come back!
@jimh….Thank you, my friend! Sending thoughts and prayers for brighter days ahead.. We all have our moments when we feel the need to “step away” from the MF Soap threads, but please don’t allow it to become a habit. Your comments “make our day,” and it’s never the same when those always-anticipated remarks fail to appear, At the very least, promise to keep in touch to let us know you’re hanging in there and still lurking “here” amongst the many regulars who call this website “home!” Take care and best wishes for a most blessed Thanksgiving and holiday season.
I would rather it was a GH/DAYS crossover and she hit loud mouth smart butt kate..THIS ISN’T A TWO FOR ONE SALE MAKE UP YOUR DAMNED MIND ADRIENNE…BWAHAHA..when they finally leave the church Alexis should be drunk driving through Salem after a stop off at TBD and runs that cow over.
What beautiful sentiments, Timmm…and so true! Wishing you, as well as the rest of the good people we’ve come to know here at MFSoaps, a Happy Thanksgiving
Thank you Shay. Also, a belated Happy Thanksgiving to all. Hope everyone survived Black Friday! Back in the saddle, Cyber Monday! Spinelli must get some awesome deals!
Lordie, I hope so! If he suddenly died or had to leave town for medical care, I’d root for that.
If it’s Julian, back up Alexis and make sure the job is done!
Thats funny! Sonny under the front tires and Julian under the back tires!
Save one tire for Franco
All I know is that the Quartermaines better have to call out for pizza on Thanksgiving—the highlight of the GH thanksgiving episodes is always when the Q’s are SOCLOSE to having the traditional turkey when something goes wrong at the last second and they have to phone out for pizza. I do love that running gag!!!
I agree totally, back up the car and go home and eat some turkey, you just killed one.
Maybe Alexis runs over the pizza delivery guy– Happy Thanksgiving everyone
Why didn’t Sonny hire Alexis to take out Julian?
.
.
NO ! no no, it is NOT Julian that she hits..
But– Julian saw who her drunk hitting whomever and then he blackmails her to take him back as her husband..
J&S are are very weak writers.. can she what’s coming before they finish the script..
That’s what I had plotted out as well. Now Alexis can be even more weaker under Julian’s thumb. BLACKMAIL it’s in the air!.
hi Nina..
we have it !!
Julian will blackmail Alexis to take him back, yup..
theses drunk person hit&run’s whomever are common.. Y&R has used that one more than a couple of times..
0ooh my neighbor (here) just told me it was a favorite plot on AMC, too, she said Brook.for one.
She definitely hits Julian. He probably runs in front of the car preventing her from driving away plastered. I like that list of better targets in another post much, much better. But not Curtis. Someone’s got to rescue him from the Lets All Make Sonny the Mobster Feel Better storyline.
Natasha needs to have her driver’s license revoked.
Lol…leave Natasha alone….
Does Alexis mow down Julian? Probably not, but one can certainly hope. Lord knows he deserves it. Love Nancy Lee Grahn, she’s been knocking it out of the park not only recently but this entire year.
Can we please get some skid marks on Kiki’s back? THAT would be wondrous!
This sweeps period has got to be the dullest on record for General Hospital. One wonders what we’d be watching if Bryan Craig hadn’t opted to leave the show. These stories…save for Anna, Valentin and company…are a snooze-fest!
Will Nick Stabile ever be returning as Nikolas? This is way overdue. Bring him back, Mr. Valentini!
I wish it was Ava and Julian that she hit, maybe now,she will stop hitting the bottle. Not a good look for her.. Diane should be married to Sonny. She gets him..
Looks to me like she hit Nathan, Julian witnesses it and will try to help her cover up. She wants her license to practice back at beginning of the year so she will go with the cover up. Plus she doesn’t want her girls to know she’s been drinking…
Hey, maybe she hits Nathan and he wakes up from a coma and he can act!
See? That’s funny! Timmmy and his dry humor. Love it!!
Why did you let Carly an sonny get married
Again only to put Carly back with Jax.
Alexis is a weak wanna be who doesn’t really
Have a part in the show except for being
A wineo maybe this will spice up her life.
Leave Franco an Elizabeth together continue
To keep him a softy but don’t let him b to soft.
Hey what if it’s sonny? How would Carly feel if he’ on his death bed again?
Sonny is under house arrest.
Well, maybe Alexis could mistake the accelerator for the brake and ram into Sonny’s mansion thereby running down Sonny lounging on his black leather Lazy Boy while watching Bay Watch repeats.
OK…you know what: I think that Alexis should MOW DOWN the following characters: Ava, Carly, Dante, Griffin, Jordan, Nina, Sonny and Spinelli.
Just an idea……….
I like the way you think, Jaybird.
Thanks. Much, much appreciated.
Mrs Kravitz…’lounging on his black leather Lazy Boy while watching Baywatch repeats’…TOO FUNNY…LOL!!!!! GOOD ONE!!!!!
Take care.
….or watching BEWITCHED repeats.
ABNER!!!!!!!!!!
Mr. Fairman,
I would love to know if it’s true that TPTB are planning on redeeming Julian and how far they will go? That is, will they mow over Duke and Anna/Scorpio/Classic GH history in the process? The Jeromes are to Duke and Anna what the evil Cassadines are to the Spencers so if this is a continuation of tossing aside everything Classic GH to accommodate what’s considered hot at the moment (though I hardly think it will still be talked about even 3 years from now), it’ll only confirm the worst fears of lapsed fans. I do recall that Jelly said previously in one of your interviews that they wanted Anna to get her Justice for Duke. Since that hasn’t happened, I can only assume the execs/FV changed the direction to keep WD on canvas which is highly disappointing and much too late considering we haven’t had a chance to sympathize with him at all the entire time. He’s had very little POV. To fill it in now with what is inconsistent with his history and his almost slashing of his wife’s throat with the dagger that killed her mother is hideous at best. Thanks for your reporting as always.
Hey, JMER,
Great post….sympathy for a character has many faces.
Now, I love WD, the actor. Not so the character. And, regardless of any redemption coming his way; I have a problem giving him tabula rasa.
Everyone deserves a second chance, but, not Julian; not; Sonny; not anyone of this ilk…..not, when the same pernicious deeds are committed without the blink of an eye on a regular basis. It is pretty presumptuous of them….sticks to the craw when they keep getting away with it.
So, I care not how much Julian loves Alexis. I care not if she may forgive him. I care not how popular a character Julian is with the ladies. I care not how enticingly perfect his derriere is……a cad is a cad is a cad.
Furthermore, I have come to appreciate Alexis….I would be soooo disappointed if I had to revert back to my old concept of her.
…..Follow your brain, Alexis !!!! Stay away the deep!!!!…..even the most beautiful, serene, invitingly blue waters are infested with sharks.
I hope the writers listen to my oh, so sagacious words! LOL.

‘General Hospital’s’ Steve Burton Shares Reaction to His Lead Actor Daytime Emmy Nomination, ‘It Was to Honor Leslie Charleson’

The 53rd Annual Daytime Emmy Award nominations kicked-off on Monday with the announcements of four major categories including, Outstanding Lead Performer in a Daytime Drama Series — Actor, and among the nominees is General Hospital’s Steve Burton (Jason Morgan).
Burton is already a two-time Daytime Emmy winner in the Supporting Actor category for his roles as GH’s Jason and his turn as Dylan McAvoy on Y&R. However, Steve is yet to win in the Lead Actor category and he has received 11 nominations along the way in his daytime career.
Following the reveal that he is a 2026 Daytime Emmy nominee, he and his GH co-star, podcast co-host and comedy show partner, Bradford Anderson (Spinelli) taped a special edition of their That’s Awesome podcast just featuring Burton’s reaction to the news.

FOR LESLIE CHARLESON
Steve expressed, “I know it’s such a cliche to say, ‘I’m just so honored to be nominated.’ But truly, I’m so grateful to be nominated, so grateful to just be on the show off and on for 30 plus years and to be nominated with the guys in my category. Just to get the opportunity. Frank (Valentini, executive producer, GH) texted me right away. I was just like, ‘Thank you for the opportunity to get to do what I do.'”
Taking in the moment, Burton thanked those who helped him select the material for his nominated reel. “Unless you win, you don’t get to say things. So. I’m going just say a few things: Elizabeth Korte (co-head writer, GH) helped me a lot with the material, (as did) Michelle Henry, who’s a producer on the show, Laura Wright (Carly, GH), and then my wife Michelle (Lundstrom). I believe it was Jill Phelps who told me that when A Martinez felt like he had a great show or great scenes, he would mark it down. So, when Emmy time comes, you have all the show numbers written down, and you don’t have to think about it, because that’s half the battle (finding the material).
Burton explained how meaningful this nomination is for him, because of playing the scenes of Jason losing Monica, and his closeness with the late, great Leslie Charleson.
“The nomination’s an amazing thing, and it’s beautiful, but really it’s to honor Leslie Charleson. A lot of my material was because of her, and how I started on the show as a Quartermaine, it just means a ton,” shared Burton. “Maurice Benard (Sonny, GH) has obviously has been instrumental, and I’ve said it from day one and I’ll shout it from the rooftops. If it wasn’t for him, I wouldn’t be here, and to be working with the people that we work with is incredible.”

SHOULD JOHN OLIVER BE NAMED HOST OF THE DAYTIME EMMYS?
During the end of his conversation with Anderson, Steve suggested that the host of the Daytime Emmy should be Last Week Tonight’s John Oliver, who recently guest starred as the head of the WSB named Z on General Hospital, and is soon to show up on Days of Our Lives in a mystery role in August.
Thus far, the National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences has not revealed their host for the upcoming ceremony to be held on October 30 in a venue to be named in Hollywood, California.
You can watch Steve sharing his reaction to receiving his 2026 Lead Actor Daytime Emmy nomination below on a special segment on the That’s Awesome podcast.
Now let us know, are you glad that Steve chose scenes surrounding Jason mourning the loss of the woman that raised him, Monica Quartermaine for his Emmy reel? What do you think of John Oliver as a suggestion to host the Daytime Emmys? Weigh-in via the comment section below.
General Hospital
GENERAL HOSPITAL: Jason Reconnects with Danny; Tristan Roberts Arrives in Port Charles, Lots of Nods to #16

General Hospital’s 16,000th episode was packed with little reminders through points in today’s script that the ABC daytime drama series has set another milestone and it paved the way for the return of fan favorite and newly nominated Daytime Emmy Lead Actor nominee Steve Burton (Jason Morgan). The 16,000th episode also introduced viewers to the new surgeon in Port Charles Dr. Tristan Roberts played by Dean Geyer.
Here are the key takeaways and what went down on the July 13 episode: Tristan and Jason are seated next to each other on a plane heading to Port Charles. Throughout the flight, a beaten up Jason has flashbacks to being thrown into, and being held captive in a cell and tortured. It appears Jason is suffering from some form of PTSD from what he was put through after being dragged out of Port Charles by the WSB months ago.
As the plane prepares to land, Tristan tells Jason there would be a car waiting for him once they land and to enjoy the rest of his life. Later, Tristan arrives at the nurses and doctors hub at GH and approaches Elizabeth (Rebecca Herbst). He tells her his name and that he is the new surgeon on staff.

A REUNION PLUS A HEAD NURSE DEFENDS SONNY
Meanwhile, at the end of the episode, Jason is outside the Quartermaine boathouse looking bewildered when he runs into Danny (Asher Antonyzyn), who is so thrilled to see his father, and the two hugs each other as tears are shed.
Elsewhere, Elizabeth tells Sonny (Maurice Benard) that he thinks its a great idea for him to get the 16th seat on the hospital board, but when it comes times to convince Tracy Quartermaine (Jane Elliot) of that, things go awry when Tracy, Laura and Sonny try to work things out. After Tracy launches into Sonny about killing Alan and Monica’s son AJ, Sonny walks away dejected.
Next, Sonny runs into Elizabeth, where he informs her what happened with Tracy. So what’s a head nurse to do? Elizabeth marches into the conference room and reminds Tracy of all the different donations and ways Sonny has contributed to the hospital from the Stone Cates AIDS wing, to the Michael Corinthos Center for Pediatric Head Injuries as well as his constant support each year for the GH Nurses’ Ball.

WSB WAR SCARS
Then, in one of the best parts for longtime fans of the series, Elizabeth talks about her legendary grandparents, Audrey and Steve Hardy and she tells Tracy they would have wanted Sonny to have a seat on the board for all the good that he has done for the hospital. After Elizabeth states Sonny’s case, things took a turn and Tracy and Sonny wound up shaking hands as Sonny is board member #16.
In the how great was it to see Anna (Finola Hughes) and Valentin (James Patrick Stuart) together scenes department, the pick-up of last Friday’s cliffhanger is played out as the two former lovers fill each other in on what has gone down in their lives in the last several months including Valentin admitting he had been living in Carly’s attic, and Anna realizing she was kidnapped by Cullum, Sidwell and Cassius Faison. During their conversation, Anna sees the hallucination of Peter August (Wes Ramsey) right while Valentin is standing there.

Courtesy/ABC
Later Anna was on her way to saying goodbye to Valentin, when the two share an emotional hug. After Valentin made his exit, Peter reappeared and warned Anna to not let Valentin distract her because she has important work to do. Anna answers, “I know.”
So, what did you think of General Hospital’s 16,000 episode? What do you think is wrong with Jason? What is the important “work” that Anna has to do? Were you glad to see Sonny get a seat on the hospital board, or not so much. Weigh-in via the comment section. But first, check out the scenes on Jason and Tristan’s long flight to Port Charles.
