Now, comes word via a video ditty featuring Finola Hughes (Anna) and Paevey himself that was posted on the GH’s Instagram account, that this Friday, September 19th, will mark Ryan’s on-screen return.

In the set up, Finola bumps into Ryan out front of the General Hospital soundstage at ABC Prospect studios. Hughes asks Paevey what he is doing here and htells her he works here now!

“I thought you left,” Hughes. “I did, but I came back.” he says quietly, Since Finola sees Ryan with a script she asks, “Are you studying lines?” Eventually, the Emmy-winning actress asks, “When are you on?”  Then, Ryan answers, “This Friday.”  Finola is startled in the spoof and says, “Oh, my God!” Who are you playing?” Paevey coyly added, “I can’t tell you that. It’s a secret.”

Previously, General Hospital co-head writers, Elizabeth Korte and Chris Van Etten teased Paevey’s arrival in their fall preview, centering around a, “huge new mystery and romantic chaos all around. How did Nathan survive his shooting by Faison (Anders Hove) Where has he been? How is he changed? How will he deal with Maxie’s (Kirsten Storms illness? Who will help him pick up the pieces?”

Ryan played detective Nathan West in his initial run from 2013-2018 until exiting the series and being killed-off my his his father, Cesar Faison. Later the series delivered a very touching police funeral with supposedly West’s body in the coffin! Now, we will see just how the new story links up with Nathan’s sister Britt Westbourne (Kelly Thiebaud) back from the dead and his former wife Maxie Jones in a coma!

Take a look at the video below. Now let us know, if you are ready for Ryan’s debut this Friday on GH, and what version of Nathan West do you think he will be? The real deal? A mind-controlled real deal, or is he someone else pretending to be Nathan? Weigh-in via the comment section.

Still not 100% sure he actually Nathan. The way the writers teased he theoretically could be someone impersonating Nathan.

Whomever he is, Paevey better be prepared for slap from “Mutter”.

Nina’s family certainly has expanded in the last few months. Watros taught acting class with her brilliant performance on Tuesday’s episode.

Was she ever! I’ve been waiting for Nina to finally step up to her petulant psycho daughter and hold her accountable for her actions. And Watros delivered with a one two punch. She’s so good. That said, not excited about Nathan’s return from the dead. If they’re going to bring yet another actor back from the dead, can they at least pick an actor who can actually act like they’ve risen from the dead? This guy is as lifeless as a petrified tree trunk.

Gees Harry, I have seen you disappointed over the language used by some commentors in the past… If Ryan is, as you say “a lifelong petrified tree trunk” why do you think GH is bringing him back? And didn’t he leave due to the cruelty of unwarranted comments and L.A. in general?

And at a time when people want unity.. hmmm.

Wait a minute A lot of folks have commented about his wooden acting. Equating a negative comment about an actor’s acting with the divisiveness currently occurring in our country is wrong. Negative comments about an actor’s looks, race, sexual orientation, gender identity and mental acuity are wrong. But making a negative comment about an actor’s acting skills is okay. Choose your battles carefully.

Choose my battles carefully?? Wow. OK Jill, thanks You appear more bothered than my buddy Harry does.

Watros and Gatti have both delivered their A+ game, the show is on fire

Ava

On the Friday, November 13 episode of General Hospital, Drew (Cameron Mathison) convinces Ava (Maura West) they need to get married, to each other! Brook Lynn (Amanda Setton) hopes to get the DNA results on Jude (Will Traval) she has waited for, and Elizabeth (Rebecca Herbst) and Dante (Dominic Zamprogna) secretly co-conspire to find out who in Port Charles had the infamous tick!

Here’s what went down: Drew explained to Ava that they needed to get hitched ASAP, that way, they couldn’t be forced to testify against each other in the Jack Brennan case. After initially being kind of sick of the thought of marrying Drew, he made her change her mind, by throwing out the fact that if she lands in jail Sonny (Maurice Benard) will have Avery (Ayla Bullington) all to himself.

Next, Ava heads to GH to ask Lucas (Van Hansis) to be her witness in marrying Drew. Lucas has already figured out the reason Ava is marrying Drew because it has something to do with Brennan’s death. Explaining she hates the idea of getting married to Drew, she has run out of other options. Lucas agrees to help her, but firmly tells Ava nobody would believe it was a real marriage anyway.

CAN MOLLY AND JOE STOP THE WEDDING?

At the same time, Drew asked Martin (Michael E. Knight) for a post-nuptial agreement. Martin was not happy to hear that Drew was going to marry Ava, warning that prison was a better option than tying himself to a woman like Ave Jerome.

Eventually Ava, Lucas, Drew, and Martin gathered at the city clerk’s office. Lucas comes up with a way to derail or stall the nuptials by saying that they need to wait for Scout (Kayden Brenna Tokarski) and Avery to show up, as they should be a part of this, too.

Lucas may have saved the day, because Molly (Kristen Vaganos) and Joe (Jonathan Bennett) went to Drew’s office to serve him his warrant, but found the office door open. Next, Joe found a sticky note on Drew’s folder that revealed Drew had obtained a marriage license. A light bulb goes off in his head and he realized Ava and Drew are getting married, so he and Molly rush off to City Hall to try and stop it.

IS JUDE THE TRUE BABY DADDY?

Elsewhere, after receiving a text message that the DNA results are in at the hospital, Brook Lynn ends her discussion over Jude and baby Phoebe with Gio (Giovanni Mazza) and runs out of the Quartermaines.

Once Brook Lynn gets off the elevator at GH, she sees Jude and Britt  Kelly Thiebaud) looking might close. She quickly heads back towards the elevator sight unseen and was clearly shaken by what she saw. Earlier at the doctors and nurses hub, Elizabeth helped Dante by confirming by an ear gesture they had worked out; that the patient with the tick was Ava Jerome.

You can check out the scenes where Lucas gets a visit from Ava and he learns she wants him to be her witness in marrying Drew at City Hall.

Now weigh-in: do you think Ava and Drew will tie the knot before Joe and Molly make it to City Hall? What do you think the DNA results will show once Brook Lynn gets her hands on them? Have they been tampered with? Let us know your thoughts via the comment section.

Realizing, Josslyn is in danger, Carly won’t sit by and let anything happen to her. She tells Valentin, “I’ve already lost one kid because of that man. I won’t lose another.”

SONNY IS READY FOR WAR

Meanwhile in the aftermath of his visit with Carly, Sonny told his brother Ric what went down when Josslyn disrespected him in front of his own daughter and hurt Avery. Since Josslyn already make it known that she no longer considers herself part of Sonny’s family, he’s decided to treat her accordingly.

Sonnys first step in payback is to take away her support system at JJE by approaching Hudson Parker (Troy Lennon Appel) again, but this time in a much less-friendly way.

Ric points out that this would go against every move Sonny made as a legitimate businessman in Port Charles and would mean he’s back in the mob? Sonny doubles down, saying Josslyn changed the game when she involved Avery. While he showed concern of how bad Carly would feel over all this year, he said he is ready to finish what Josslyn started.

At the Metro Court, Ava (Maura West) is listening to Avery explain what happened between Sonny and Josslyn and how much she hates Josslyn right now, which Ava seems to be OK with.

WILL JOSSLYN’S WORLD BLOW UP ON HER?

Speaking of Josslyn, she is on the pier still after her talk with Hudson and still crying over her confrontation with Sonny and Avery overhearing it, and what she told her sister. Lucas comes across her at the pier while out for his run.

Explaining how badly she feels for what she said about Sonny to Avery, Lucas says that eventually Avery will discover the truth about Sonny. He explains to Josslyn that even though Avery hates her now, she will come to realize that what she said about her father was the truth, and that Josslyn was not lying to her at all.

So, what do you think about Sonny ready to play dirty to take down Josslyn? How will Carly ensure her daughter does not wind up dead? Who do you think is in the right here? Is Josslyn’s vendetta against Sonny justified, at the cost of the relationships with her family? Let us know your thoughts in the comment section.
