This week on ABC’s General Hospital will make his highly anticipated return of Ryan Carnes in the role of Lucas Jones!
As fans of the series know, Bobbie Spencer (Jackie Zeman) is Lucas’ adopted mother, while the very much alive Julian Jerome (William deVry) is actually his biological father! What will happen when Julian meets the son he never knew? Will he cause more trouble for Bobbie? And, will Julian accept that his son is gay? Many unanswered questions that fans of the series are waiting to see play out!
Elsewhere, Morgan (Bryan Craig) is worried about his MIA missing mom, Carly (Laura Wright) and goes after Julian! Felix (Marc Anthony Samuel) gives Sabrina (Teresa Castill0) a talking to reminding her she is trying to pass off Patrick’s (Jason Thompson) child as someone else’s, while Elizabeth (Rebecca Herbst) seems to stumble upon them, and Kiki (Kristen Alderson) is on to her mother Ava (Maura West) for a secret she is hiding!
Watch this week’s preview of GH after the jump, and let us know what you think will happen between Julian and Lucas when Lucas returns to Port Charles?
WOW & WOW !!!
This going to be awesome!!
,, excited !!!!

Why isnt the mental hospital looking for Heather?(she gets help to sneak out from security guards but the rest of the staff shouldve noticed by now she isnt there) Olivia confronts Franco and reminds him he is a killer…who is Olivia dating…Sonny, a mobster known for murder! Sonny calls A.J. a killer for murdering Connie…what a hypocrite…how many deaths is Sonny responsible for…countless!!! Meanwhile, i dont think Julian and Lucas will bond anytime soon…maybe Lucas and Felix will know each other?

There will be a chance Carlos is the father of Sabrinas baby…
Guest

Carlos knows they did not have sex..
If he did have sex with he would tell Sabrina it could be his baby, not Patrick’s but his baby, he can not do that because they did not do the deed..
Guest
Harry
Sonny will probably end up killing Carlos, Carlos will finger point the initials SC in his own blood and AJ will still get the blame!
Guest

suOOOO, your most likely right…

Olivia going to Franco’s room and being all bad ass was very random. And why is it that Heather can reach up and remove Carly’s gag, but Carly can’t use her own hands to do the same? Ha, ha, ha. One of the reasons we love of soaps is so we can pick it apart!

i enjoy picking them apart…thats part of the fun watching!

I was going crazy! Her hands are tied in FRONT of her, no reason she cannot ungag herself & with those stiletto shoes she could have kicked the hell out of the boathouse floor when Monica & AJ were out there, right? I, for one, am sick to death of Heather-she was actually kind of amusing way back when but this is over the top, even for a soap. Quit dragging her back out-we have too many storylines on this show & do not need anymore Heather, Scotty, Lucy or Kevin. Take Rafe, Molly & TJ too. All of these… Read more »

And why could Carly groan and screech and moan when Heather was in the room…yet she couldnt utter a sound when Monica and AJ were outside? I will accept all the latex masks and back from the deads and other soapy conventions…but when they do flat out stupid things like that…it totally takes you out of the moment. There is no gag that prevents a person from making a sound. If there was that big of a raccoon problem on the Quartermaine grounds….Monica sure has a lot to deal with. Carlivati is veering dangerously close to the dreaded James E.… Read more »

I think we tend to not question Heather and her Houdini like abilities because she is such an over the top cartoonish character we all love and put common sense a side?

Can’t wait to see how Julian reacts to not only having a son and that he’s gay as well. I wonder how Julian finds out Lucas is his son.

Carnes looks amazing….gone is that cookie-cutter surfer dude look. Maybe time to record GH again since & will have room without Y&R.

Lucas is all grown up and so much hotter than before. They can’t possibly be planning to waste this hot man on the likes of Felix or Brad. I’m all for Lucas being a gay man, but not with either of those two clowns.
Guest
rebecca1
I actually like those “two clowns.” Felix is hilarious, bright and completely loyal…and Brad is has gone from evil to sorta endearing as he tries to do the right thing to win Felix.
Guest
gloria
Agree. Felix is precious & I have come around to Brad (can’t believe I said that, ha!)
Guest
rebecca1
LOL…I know (regarding Brad), right?
Guest

Those two clowns can do whatever they want as long as they stay away from Lucas. They are both out of his league.
Guest
rebecca1
oh Stylish…we don’t even know how Lucas will be portrayed yet…personality-wise. If you’re just talking looks…well, by all means, be superficial. Felix is an educated person, a nurse, a loyal friend, a compassionate human being. As a fictional character…I think anyone they pair him up with should consider themselves lucky.

Not to make this a “Revenge” thread, but it is awfully difficult to keep a scorecard as to whom is good or bad on that show! Everyone is pretty suspect, although I do consider Nolan to be a sweetheart (albeit a devious one!) and the jury is still out on Patrick….I think there is much more to him than meets the eye, and who he is really playing has yet to be determined. That being said, I do believe that there is a sincere bond between those two, but their various loyalties tend to keep both on their toes, clever… Read more »

Well, rebecca1, at least we can heartily agree about AJ….he has gotten a bad rap and been seriously underutilized for the past six months or more, and he deserves so much better….but I guess that is the extent to where we have any sort of simpatico. You seem to be fixating on the physical attractiveness of my “Revengers” and yes, they are extremely fine on the eyes, but perhaps the word I would use to really capture their essence is “sophistication.” It’s what I was grasping to express about why Nolan and Patrick impress me and the GH pair, not… Read more »

@rebecca1….Who can really say why one viewer takes to a character and another finds them instantly insufferable? It’s certainly not as simplistic as saying you like someone based upon whether they are good or bad in nature. There are “good” characters that I adore and cheer (Anna and Mrs. Hughes on “Downton Abbey,” the late Lila Quartermaine, Alice and Spinelli on GH, plus other examples too numerous to mention) and there are bad characters in which I revel and love (such as Port Charles’ Dr. O. and Heather, plus “Revenge’s” Victoria, etc.) All I know is that this “Sobby” situation… Read more »
Guest
Shay
Totally agree, “Stylish!” (Your name says it ALL!) I much prefer Nolan and Patrick on “Revenge” as a couple. They are sooo easy on the eyes, classy, intelligent and urbane, plus no one can beat Mr. Ross’s sartorial and verbal eloquence! Here’s hoping that Lucas follows in their footsteps and avoids the laughable behavior of “those two clowns.” (Although I did like Brad’s taking to task Felix’s nosy, obsessive behavior regarding other people’s business!) P.S. Is it just me, or does Mr. DuBois remind anyone else of “In Living Color’s” Antoine Merriwether???? Two snaps up!!!
Guest
rebecca1
Haha! I love how the definition of who’s a “clown” and who’s “worthy” comes down to looks. Shay, if you’re using Patrick as a standup example of who’s worthy I think you need to take another look at the show. Yes, I LOVE LOOKING at him; he’s gorgeous! And I LOVE Nolan…in every regard. The two of them together are quite the eye candy. But “classy?” Patrick is a murderer who’s betrayed Nolan more than once. So, yes, while I need my fix…and I love seeing what’s going to happen next…and also secretly hope that Patrick turns out to be… Read more »

By the way for those who don’t watch REVENGE, the Patrick we’re referring to here is from REVENGE, not the Patrick of GH.
Guest
rebecca1
I always find it funny when someone categorizes one character as bad, evil, unscrupulous, or as you put it Shay…having “rotten actions.” How many times on GH has Tracy, Carly, Sonny judged AJ? A manipulatiavve bitch, a woman who slept with her mother’s husband, and a murderer…judge AJ…and there are fans who agree with them! In the same vein…back to REVENGE…almost all the characters, with the exception of Jack and his new girlfriend…ar devious. I LOVE Nolan…I think he’s the best! But Patrick? He killed a man for him mom…and just bashed Nolan in the head for her. So…yeah, he’s… Read more »

Well of course Nolan and Patrick are sophisticated…the entire show centers around the extremely wealthy, /Hampton crowd…all are beautiful, polished…that’s the vibe of the show. What we’re talking about “here” is GH! That’s peanut butter to caviar (though I MUCH prefer peanut butter!) When/if GH runs a gay character ala Patrick and Nolan, then yes…it would seem that a comparable partner would be logical. I just took note that at the start of this thread these two guys were referred to as clowns. Brad? Ya…until his recent revelation and attempt to become a better man. But I really wonder if… Read more »

@Shay….Believe it or not I do understand some of your feelings regarding the Sabrina storyline…I never saw her as manipulative…ever. And I truly don’t think she was written that way, nor do I think there’s an iota of manipulation in her. THAT’s where I have a problem understanding your “wrath” toward the character. Initially written young/wide-eyed innocent? Yes. Perhaps portrayed as a young girl with a crush on an older, out-of-her-league doctor? Perhaps. But…I still feel they matured her emotionally…and I do feel she’s a very empathetic worthy character. But I certainly don’t feel everyone has to like her…as nor… Read more »

So, in essence, we will just agree to disagree on the Sobby/Felix/Brad thing and call it a day! After viewing your other postings on different programs it would seem we can find much more in common than debating a few daytime characters! It is a hoot that we can be so passionate about “people” that don’t really exist, but then that’s what the soaps are all about (day or night)…drawing us in, and they have! At any rate, did you find it odd that nobody else much commented on this ongoing conversation? I thought it would have actually garnered a… Read more »

Its getting interesting again! The problem I have is how does heather look so good and miraculously heal from being stabbed and buried maybe shes one of lucys vampires haha. There has never been a convincing story for heather even jerry jax suffers a little before he comes back heather never does. I hope lucus comes on and gives julian hell it would be fun to watch someone not cower down to him for once.

Is he the same guy who last played Lucas? He doesn’t look familiar to me.

Carnes originated the role. Then Drake Hogestyn’s step-son, Ben, played the role.

Ryan played Lucas circa 2005, and then Drake Hogestyn’s son took over the role for a while before it was written out.

I’m excited for what’s coming.
But one thing that bothers me is that I keep seeing these 15-16 second commercials on this site but don’t see them on TV; that’s where they belong. Is ABC running these ads??? I sure hope I’m just missing them and other people are seeing how wonder this show is.

I want lucas and felix, to have a romantic relationship. Also make julian jerome gay too, that would be a huge twist. julian is one hot man. lol. william devry is hot and masculine, i love that, about him. my boyfriend is hot good looking and masculine too lol. William is a wonderful actor, Also i love ava jerome, maura west, what can you say, brillant actress. thats why, she has 2 emmys.

I enjoyed the actor who played Lucas in the past and it is nice to see this guy reprise his role. He can act, he looks like Julian, and he is gay. I am not but coming out is so common now, it is part of society and should be recognized in soaps. I tip my hat to Carlos. He was one dimensional. Now, suggesting they run off and raise Patrick’s baby shows how much he loves Sabrina. Having said that, it is not in Sabrina’s character to lie, especially to Patrick. Another “Whose the daddy” story line? PLEASE NO!… Read more »

I’m really not liking Ryan back as Lucas already. Ben would’ve been a nicer choice. But I’m excited for his return anyway. Hope he’s paired with someone new.
And yes for Ava! I love her. She’s going to destroy Port Charles and rule it as her own. #TeamJerome

There goes Felix again sticking his nose in Sabrina’s business! I think she is wrong because Patrick (or anyone for that matter) deserves to know they are a daddy, as does the child, but it is none of Felix’s concern what Sabrina does. Some people think he is her great friend but he is just a buttinsky as Brad told him; plus he promised he would not tell Patrick and he opened his big mouth. Does anyone else think that Lucas and Julian look alike??

I’d like to see Ava leave the show. I enjoy entertainment in the afternoon. I see a fine line between evil and entertainment. Ava is on the wrong side of that line. Brad did terrible things and Felix wanted him to fix some of it, to be a better man. Before he actually hits the better man line he starts sleeping with Lucas. Brad may be improving, but not enough to catch Felix. Sabrina has been nothing but sweet through the show. So I have no idea where all of your nasty remarks and ideas are coming from.

Pride Month Celebrating LGBTQ+ Soap Supercouples: Nuke, Kish, Otalia & WilSon … Which Stands the Test of Time?
June 2, 2023
June is Pride Month, the time when across the U.S and the world there are celebrations and commemorations to recognize all who identify as LGBTQ and their allies.
Daytime soap operas have had a rocky road when it comes to the representation of same-sex couples. The soaps have been at one time leaders in portraying key social issues of our time, as well as treading lightly on other subjects, as to its concerns to ‘turn-off’ its core audiences.
When you look back at the groundbreaking first same-sex weddings, and the first gay kiss, the soaps have come far in some ways in their representations of gay characters, but there is always work to be done to serve and to shed light on the under-represented.
As we reflect back to the then and the now, which LGBTQ soap supercouple remains your favorite and had made a lasting impact? Let’s take a look at four duos who captivated many viewers.
Nuke – Luke Snyder and Noah Mayer – As the World Turns
Van Hansis (Luke) and Joel Silbermann (Noah) were a key part of the evolution of, and representation of LGBTQ character on the soaps. ‘Nuke’, as they were known as, became the first gay male soap couple to share an on-screen kiss back in 2007. ATWT also became known as the first soap to depict a fully realized romantic male couple as an integral part of the show. There was plenty of backlash along the way for the long-awaited kiss to happen, but when it did, the show moved forward to tell their love story.
When Crystal Chappell (Olivia) and Jessica Leccia (Natalia) began to play the love story of Otalia, they had to show their affection by a kiss on the head, or holding hands. It took quite some time for GL to move forward to have two women, two moms, no less, share a lip lock. The complicated love story featured Natalia being conflicted to face her true romantic feelings for Olivia, because of her value system and religions upbringing, and that made this all the more riveting and frustrating at the same time. In the end, the rabid fan base for this duo was so great that Chappell wound up creating her own series, Venice, to honor and serve them, remaining one of the LGBTQ communities greatest allies.
Kish – Kyle Lewis and Oliver Fish – One Life to Live
In 2009, One Life to Live’s Kyle Lewis (Brett Claywell) was an out lab tech in Llanview, who back in college had a relationship with Officer Oliver Fish (Scott Evans). It imploded when Oliver denied he was gay. For years, Oliver remained in the closet, before finally coming out to himself and Kyle.
Kish had been a big success with the media and One Life’s gay audience. LGBTQ-advocacy groups honored the couple and the story. However, Kish was cut short when the network felt that the data showed that the storyline was not resonating with the show’s core audience.
WilSon – Will Horton and Sonny Kiriakis – Days of our Lives
Days of our Lives delivered daytime’s first-ever gay male wedding in 2014, between Will (then played by Guy Wilson) and Sonny (then played by Freddie Smith).
In an interview with EW, Days of our Lives executive producer, Ken Corday shared on the union, “Will and Sonny have been together for a while and it was the natural progression of their love story. We didn’t feel like there was anything we could or couldn’t do, we treated them like any other couple on the canvas and continued to grow their romance as such.”
In addition, the coming out story of Will Horton was critically praised and noteworthy for the performances of Chandler Massey, who won three Daytime Emmys for his work in the Outstanding Younger Actor category 2012, 2013 and 2014. Freddie Smith also won in the same category in 2015. Will has been played over the years by Chandler Massey and Guy Wilson, while Sonny has been portrayed by Freddie Smith and Zach Tinker.
There have been several other key LGBTQ couples throughout the course of daytime history including All My Children’s Bianca (Eden Riegel) and Reese (Tamara Braun). These two characters were involved in the first same-sex lesbian wedding on daytime. Problem was … Reese kissed Zach (Thorsten Kaye) before the wedding, making this infuriating for viewers at home.
Other notable LGBTQ couples through the years have included: Bianca and Maggie on All My Children, Mariah and Tessa of The Young and the Restless played bv Camryn Grimes and Cait Fairbanks, Maya and Rick on The Bold and the Beautiful, Lucas and Brad on General Hospital and others.
Which couple do you think has had the most lasting impact on the history of LGBTQ representation on daytime soap operas? Share your thoughts in the comment section below.
GH’s Nicholas Chavez and Tabyana Ali to ‘Sprina’ Shippers: “Thank You For Not Only Being Fans, But Turning into Family”
June 1, 2023
The hottest young duo on daytime drama these days belongs to General Hospital. The couple known as ‘Sprina’ played by Nicholas Chavez (Spencer) and Tabyana Ali (Trina), is being given plenty of non-stop intrigue and drama and romance, much to the delight of their fans, who just can’t get enough of them.
In the latest issue of Soap Opera Digest on newsstands everywhere Friday, Chavez and Ali weigh-in on all the latest developments and recent airshows including: the reading of Victor’s will, what to do about Esme and baby Ace, the action-adventure scenes in ‘Greenland’ and the Haunted Star, and most notably, that emotional leap from Trina into Spencer’s arms when he turned up alive!
Ali told SOD on her preparation for the moment: “I did a couple of jumps and held a baby, and that was about it!”
Courtesy/ABC
Chavez added, “That is my favorite ‘Sprina’ scene, Spencer is walking toward Trina and Trina breaks into a full sprint towards him, jumps into his arms and they kiss. I’ve always wanted to do a moment like that, you know what I mean?” Ali said, “I really loved that scene, too. It was just so fulfilling.”
When addressing what each of them would like to say to their lively and constant fan base, Tabyana expressed; “I would just say we love you, we appreciate you, thank you for all of your support and thank you for not only being fans, but turning into family.”
Nick added, “I co-sign all of that. Every single word.”

So, if you are a ‘Sprina” fan, what makes this couple so special and swoon-worthy for you? What do you hope happens next for Trina and Spencer in story? Let us know in the comment section below.
GENERAL HOSPITAL: Marcus Learns He’s Not Trina’s Biological Father
May 31, 2023
On Wednesday’s episode of General Hospital, Trina (Tabyana Ali) opened the DNA test results that would conclude who is her actual bio-dad. Would it be the man who raised her, Taggert (Réal Andrews) or, the man she more recently has come to know, Curtis (Donnell Turner)?
At GH, Marcus, Curtis and Portia (Brook Kerr) gather to learn the results. It turns out that Curtis is Trina’s biological father, not Marcus.
However, are these results, correct? Are DNA results ever correct on soaps? Did Selina Wu (Lydia Look) have something to do with switching these in favor of Curtis? Are we digging into this too much?
After the revelation, Trina tells Curtis. they will need to take some time need to figure out their relationship. Trina makes it clear she’s not looking for a replacement father, and hopes he can understand and accept that. Curtis promises he will let Trina take the lead on things.
Meanwhile, Taggert, who promised Trina no matter what happens that nothing will change between them, decides to take off and breaks down in the elevator. Marcus is devastated and in tears, and is left using the elevator as a punching bag for his fists.
You can watch the final moments of the scene, featuring a heart-tugging performance by Réal Andrews below.
Now let us know, are you glad Trina’s bio-dad turned out to be Curtis and not Marcus … or were you hoping it would turn out the other way around? Share your thoughts in the comment section.

Off subject but I am throwing it out there but now that Silas has a wife in a coma I read on line. Is this Michelle Stafford waking up? Just thought it would be funny if Phyllis went into a coma on Y&R but woke up on GH. Lol!
I love it!
Its getting interesting again! The problem I have is how does heather look so good and miraculously heal from being stabbed and buried maybe shes one of lucys vampires haha. There has never been a convincing story for heather even jerry jax suffers a little before he comes back heather never does. I hope lucus comes on and gives julian hell it would be fun to watch someone not cower down to him for once.
Is he the same guy who last played Lucas? He doesn’t look familiar to me.
Carnes originated the role. Then Drake Hogestyn’s step-son, Ben, played the role.
Ryan played Lucas circa 2005, and then Drake Hogestyn’s son took over the role for a while before it was written out.
new year and same people in the forefront, its sad they couldn’t start the new year by putting someone like Rebeca Herbts front and center. i’m tired of sam, carly and sabrina as the female leads they are so whiny and on way too much..
I’m excited for what’s coming.
But one thing that bothers me is that I keep seeing these 15-16 second commercials on this site but don’t see them on TV; that’s where they belong. Is ABC running these ads??? I sure hope I’m just missing them and other people are seeing how wonder this show is.
“wonderful”
I want lucas and felix, to have a romantic relationship. Also make julian jerome gay too, that would be a huge twist. julian is one hot man. lol. william devry is hot and masculine, i love that, about him. my boyfriend is hot good looking and masculine too lol. William is a wonderful actor, Also i love ava jerome, maura west, what can you say, brillant actress. thats why, she has 2 emmys.
I enjoyed the actor who played Lucas in the past and it is nice to see this guy reprise his role. He can act, he looks like Julian, and he is gay. I am not but coming out is so common now, it is part of society and should be recognized in soaps. I tip my hat to Carlos. He was one dimensional. Now, suggesting they run off and raise Patrick’s baby shows how much he loves Sabrina. Having said that, it is not in Sabrina’s character to lie, especially to Patrick. Another “Whose the daddy” story line? PLEASE NO!… Read more »
I’m really not liking Ryan back as Lucas already. Ben would’ve been a nicer choice. But I’m excited for his return anyway. Hope he’s paired with someone new.
And yes for Ava! I love her. She’s going to destroy Port Charles and rule it as her own. #TeamJerome
I just want the writers to FINALLY give A.J. much-needed happiness!
Yes! Agree!
Or at least a much-needed storyline! And I don’t mean another trip to rehab!!!!
There goes Felix again sticking his nose in Sabrina’s business! I think she is wrong because Patrick (or anyone for that matter) deserves to know they are a daddy, as does the child, but it is none of Felix’s concern what Sabrina does. Some people think he is her great friend but he is just a buttinsky as Brad told him; plus he promised he would not tell Patrick and he opened his big mouth. Does anyone else think that Lucas and Julian look alike??
I’d like to see Ava leave the show. I enjoy entertainment in the afternoon. I see a fine line between evil and entertainment. Ava is on the wrong side of that line. Brad did terrible things and Felix wanted him to fix some of it, to be a better man. Before he actually hits the better man line he starts sleeping with Lucas. Brad may be improving, but not enough to catch Felix. Sabrina has been nothing but sweet through the show. So I have no idea where all of your nasty remarks and ideas are coming from. Suffice it… Read more »
