General Hospital
THIS WEEK On General Hospital: Is It Curtains For The Relationship Between Sonny, Jason, and Carly?

We think, it looks as if Jason Morgan’s (Steve Burton) life is about to come apart at the seams, after the love of his life, Sam (Kelly Monaco) had already broke up with him, and now not being there when his mob boss and friend, Sonny (Maurice Benard) needed him the most.
In the latest promo from ABC for the action this week on General Hospital, the story picks back up from Friday’s cliffhanger where Sonny and an already dead Julian (William deVry) fall into the waters below after the bridge they were on collapses as Jason arrives on the scene to late to help Sonny.
The way the promo reveals itself it tells the viewers to “prepare yourself” and then we get an image of Carly (Laura Wright) at the door where it looks like she knows something horrible has happened and she is about to find out.
What will she do when Jason tells her what happened on the bridge? Will this be the end of their enduring friendship? Will Jason realize being a hit man is not the way he can live anymore if he loses every one he loves?
Finally, where is Sonny? Who will find him, and will anyone know Julian is dead?
Check out the promo below and then let us know what you think will happen next in the lives of Sonny, Carly and Jason via the comment section.
Well, let’s start with the obvious; Sonny won’t die. Second, I could see Carly not blaming Jason and them hugging it out. BFF’s to the bitter end. The body the police pull from the water will be ID’d as Julian’s and Sonny will wash up on shore next to a very-much-alive Morgan; both returning to their family on Christmas Eve. Let’s see if any of this comes to life.
Sounds good,we’ll see
Well they did pull a dead Julian out of the river, no Sonny, and Jason showed up at Carlys that was the end
As much as I would like to see it, I doubt Morgan’s just been hanging out in the woods for the last two years or so, since Julian’s car blew up.
Yeah he’s alive somewhere, but probably not there. Sonny returning to his family as an “Xmas miracle” is highly likely though. Morgan might have to wait until February sweeps. You can bet your soul he’ll be back in 2021 one way or another.
I’m full in for Jason and Sam to split..
They are quite the boring annoying couple.
Actually, they have long outlived their time.
Sam will hook-up with Brandon and
I’d like to see Carly and Jason get it on..
If Morgan is alive, that will be great I like him.
Sonny is alive, of course, and Julian hmm there won’t
be body so to keep the character returnable.
All-in-all, GH has come alive and is running hot.
Much better than YAWN Y&R it’s overkill of stale..
Want me to join the conversation I think you’re wrong about Jason and Sam I don’t think Carly and Jason should ever get it on no Morgan should not come back to life no Sunny will not be dead and no Julian is not coming back if you read the excerpt from the story that he said when he was leaving general hospital he will not be back well I’m pretty sure he will not be back and who is Brandon it’s Brando and no she won’t get it on with him either
No Carly and JASON HOOK UP they then friends for quite a while but am all for him and BRITT
They hook up and the Sonny comes back
Morgan and Nell will come back together.
Yes!!! That would be wonderful! Can’t wsit
Agree!
I believe that sonny won’t know anyone.he won’t remember his kids or wife.and during this time Morgan shows up and he shocks sonny back to reality.
That would be great
ABC NEWS interrupted the show at 15 minutes from the end. Again.
I’ve had enough. Another viewer lost.
The show has no control over when ABC news interrupts them so this is a ridiculous comment.
You can download the ABC app and watch the whole show
If Morgan isn’t another crime boss. He always wanted to take over Sonny’s business.
Rodd,yes I agree with you, hope it turns out that way, especially with Morgan he has been dead for too long time to bring him back now….Sonny will have memory loss for awhile
Dont like it. Dont surprise me because they broke up Jasam. They ruin Julian Alexis and Sam. .. for Jason to be with Carly !!!!
I’m through with the writers all this shiut for them..
I am with you, sam is boring without jason. Just get protection and do what Carly does geesh.
Sam seems to have lost her zeal. Dont know if a new partner will help. Maybe if Drew comes back. Jason with Carly is a VERY bad idea…Jason needs a bit of a mystery woman
love your last line… isn’t that mystery woman, Britta ? she dazzles, and has so much across the board appeal. she’s thee IT girl as far as i’m concerned… leading lady stats… as much as i’d LOVE to see STONE COLD AUSTIN, move a little bit… i’m warming to this twosome. just not the dread of Britta sharing screen time w/Carly and Sonny. they may as well try and get Sam to blink or put on a new shade of lipstick with Brando, which will go no where… and there is certainly no dwelling on the past. Sam and Jason have titanic.
Wow! Jason got from just outside of NYC to just outside of Buffalo (where Port Charles is) in a ridiculous amount of time. For us mere mortals, it’s a 6 hour drive. But for him, a 6 minute one! 🙂
Even more unlikely is that the Jersey cops from the bus station would get there just as fast, or that they would have jurisdiction at the bridge.
Wasnt that amazing!only Jason could do that.
Time is irrelevant on a soap opera.
sonny wakes up next to morgan and we find out that everything that happened after morgan fell in water was a bad dream and never happened.
I read somewhere Sonny has amnesia…maybe Morgan does too???
I want somebody anybody to explain to me the relationship of Sam and Jason??? If that is love I just don’t get it and from the way the actors have been acting since Burton came back I don’t think they do either .
The moronic OLTL regime started writing Sam & Jason out of character from the moment they took over the show in February 2012. They wasted 8 months throwing that idiot McBain (who never belonged on the show in the first place) in the middle of them, had Sam thinking her baby was dead (thanks to another stupid piece of Lameview trash) and when that was all finally resolved, Jason, Sam, and the kid had literally 24 hours together as a family before the regime killed off a major legacy character (or at least it would appear so, for the next 5 years)
Sadly between another incarnation of McVampire, the ridiculous pairing of Sam to Patrick Drake and then the confusion of Drew showing up, believing he was Jason (and all that followed) they have never fully recovered from the damage.
So in other words blame it all on Frank Valentini and his former sidekick, ReRon.
I totally agree with you. The writers destroyed JaSam,and they are destroying General Hospital!
John McBain was an amazing character on OLTL as is the actor who plays him. They did not kill off the Jason character. Steve Burton chose to leave…and when he returned it ultimately cost Billy Miller his job. He had true chemistry with Sam. Correct that the writers never really reunited Sam and Jason the way fans expected…too many hurdles and I rather have them move on. New love interests will make them more likeable characters…if the characters choose to stay around.
Sam was the only women to accept Jason flaws and all and loved him unconditionally and vice versa. Sam accepted Jason’s lifestyle since day one and wanted to raise a family with him since day one even after seeing countless kids/ppl be hurt and effected from his way of living because that’s how much she loved and trusted Jason. For some reason the writers decided to erase that history and ppl gone see what they want to see when it comes to the actors because of ppls feel like Steve came and took Billy’s job, so many wanting to believe Kelly prefers Billy over Steve which is stupid because Kelly also loved Greg Vaughn in 2008 and loved LuSam but it didn’t effect her working relationship and the chemistry she had with Steve moving forward. Hope that helps lol
I agree with every detail Bravo
We need to take over some of the writing, ridiculous sick os sam always being depressed! Let’s get a little drama, adventure and happiness in the mix!
I think this is where Mike returns to show Sonny his time has not come yet- he has more to do- Christmas future
Ok this is out of nowhere. we must bring back focus to their show. This is the best they can do folks. Who drinks the kool aid on this shit. Happy effin new year to their expletive show. But you know what, it’s nice to remark that general hospital has a lot going on in and around the slop that is just Sonny and Carly.
Hey Patrick-
Sonny and Carly are stagnated.. like watching moss growing.
There is no-one else for them to hookup with
so the will be forever, sigh..
They’re like brother and sister living together..
No spark definitely not sexy, they just are that’s it they just are.
Great!!! Now the lawyer Martin will be given good stories.
I like him and it will good to have him up front
(that is if he’ll be given good stories)
Martin being involved with Laura will be interesting.
Yes theyd make a great couple,I love the Southern accent they gave Martin.
A great couple? Uh… you know he’s her brother, right?
They’re brother and sister. Eeew
Aren’t they brother and sister
Yes step
Max’s Mom
Not step, half, same father, big difference. Cyrus is also her half brother. Can’t wait to see how this all works out.
I thought felons couldn’t carry a gun in NYS. Sam’s parole officer told her she couldn’t be with Jason because he’s a felony, but the cop at the bus station told him he could pick up his gun tomorrow? Crazy!
Does Jason even have any actual felony convictions? As far as I can remember, he confessed to a crime once, and that was only so he could go to prison to protect Michael (who should have never been there at all, but that’s a whole other discussion)
And I thought that conviction was overturned, along with Michael’s, when both were released from prison.
So I doubt Jason actually a “convicted felon” at all. Yeah, we all know what he does for a living, but that’s different from an actual legal conviction record.
This is how Jason & Carly become lovers. It has been building up to this for a long time now. Deep abiding friendships very often end up with people falling in love. And just as they realize this, Sonny will show up. It will end up very messy & complicated. Because both Jason & Carly truly love Sonny. Its the ultimate soap triangle!
Jason and Carly together make me sick no way no how. If that happens I won’t even read about the show, which is what I do now cause they have screwed this show up completly. Morgan is dead leave him there!!
It would be the ultimate triangle, and I’m hoping for that. Carly and Jason would be the best match because of their long standing friendship. Carly will never leave because of his job and Jason wouldn’t leave no matter what crazy scheme Carly pulls. All they need is to go from love to in love and voila! Sonny comes back, drama ensues… or, Sonny can be found, no memory, he is recognised, they bring him back home without his memory, he sees and notices the love between Jason and Carly and starts asking some questions because he is seeing them from the perspective of an outsider while Jason is teaching him the business again.
Well I Havnt been able to watch in years do to my job, but every time I want to catch up its the same story. How many times can Sonny, Jason ANF Julian die, what are they cats. Or maybe it’s something in the Port Charles water.
I like Sam and Jason together and I’m pissed they are breaking up… And Sonny better not be dead!!
All I know is I want willow and Michael together!!
Prayers for Mr. James Patrick Stewart & His Family
SONNY WILL BE FOUND BECAUSE CYRUS cannot run port Charles down what would be the point of drugs being the victory
This is all so riveting and well written! We know that Willuam Devry (Julian) has left the show, and is now dead. But we have no idea about Sonny! He was dead near where Julian was, and Jason has now told Carly. Wow!
The real Christmas miracle would be for Sonny to be presumed dead and never heard from again…
Is it too late for Carly and Jason to also fall into the river and meet the same fate?
I think it was really lousy after an exciting week to have Sonny not be with his family for Christmas, especially since there will be no new shows until next week. I for one, like he and Carly together. They ground each other and I do not see or want to see Carly and Jason be anything to each other than loving friends who have always been there for each other. I am sick of Jason and Sam together, actually just sick of Sam, and have been hoping for some time to see Jason and Britt ignite and burn. I am hoping for something between Brando and Sasha, I think they are good together. Morgan can stay gone. I saw nothing of his character but causing trouble for his family and betraying Kiki with his sick sex trysts with her own mother. Maybe Ava seduced him, but he sure didn’t look like he was forced in any way. The dog even went after the fake cousin played by Ava. I feel for Alexis and her plight as the misunderstood drunk. Her daughters should know she can’t be helped until she wants it and I don’t think they are helping by treating her like crap!
Sorry to take so much space and would like to wish everyone a healthy and better New Year ahead.
About a year ago, there were a couple of episodes where Jason had these surprisingly insightful, soul-searching conversations with people (I don’t remember who) after he realized that the huge and often reckless risks he and Sam routinely take with their lives now put their kids at risk of losing them, and their kids have to come first. That was when Sam was trying to convince him that she needed to use herself & her son as decoys to attract Shilo and get him away from her sister, and Jason reluctantly went along after Sam told him to chill out and trust her and her harebrained scheme (that totally backfired). How can she suddenly be taking this moral high ground about safety and their kids? It’s such an implausible turn for the character, particularly so soon after the Shilo thing. Also, this means she sold her kids’ shares in ELQ (and screwed over the company & allowed Cyrus to take over the hospital) for absolutely nothing. Sam is not a likeable character to start. This sure isn’t helping. What is the writers’ long game, since they are ruining what was left of Sam? Is Kelly Monaco on her way out too?
Sonny Corinthos is alive and being held captive by Mikkos Cassadine, Helena Cassadine, Victor Cassadine, Stavros Cassadine, Jerry Jacks, Lorenzo Alcazer, Diego Alcazer, Ric Lansing and Peter Augest they also have the real Lulu Spencer by (Julie Marie Berman), Morgan Corinthos by (Drew Garrett), Geogie Jones, Drew Cain, Emily Quartmaine by ( Natalia Livington), Kiki Jerome by (Kristen Alderson), Sabrina Santaiago, Lilly Rivera with Sonny Corinthos and her son, Karen Wexler by (Cari Shayne) with Jason Morgan and her son Dev Cerci aka Stone Cates the 2nd, Duke Lavery, Holly Suton, the real Nikolas Cassadine by (Tyler Christopher) and Nathen West.
Also with Zander.
Mikkos Cassadine will never be back, as John Collcos is long dead, and there is nobody on Earth or in Hell who could pull off a recast of that character.
And no version of the Kiki character is (or was EVER needed) nor is the extremely devoid of talent Disney Bubblegum princess ever needed in any form. Same goes for Sabrina. Other than StarrKikiTwit, she was the lamest thing ever invented by ReRon.
I don’t see Lily ever returning as she was blown to bits and shown several times as a resident of my former home, Heaven. And Helena is very much an established resident of my current home, Hell. She’s not escaping again! Neither is Stavros, but Victor’s not down here, so he’s probably in hiding somewhere. Probably in Salem, actually……
Alcazar….. sure they could bring him back, since he never really was confirmed dead. Don’t think we really need another mob villain at the moment with Cyrus the Virus chewing up the scenery, but there might be some future storyline possibilities. Not Diego though. Waste of time character. And already died at least twice.
I’m totally with you on the return of the real Lulu Spencer (and her brother Lucky too, for that matter.) And we obviously know that Morgan was never dead, but I’m not sure why you would want an ex-Michael to play him. Drew (like Morgan) was never actually proven dead, so I wouldn’t be at all surprised to find him in that weird WSB clinic in Switzerland. Or where ever it is that Holly is being held prisoner, probably by somebody on Whiny Heiny’s payroll.
Karen Wexler being Dev’s mother is an interesting thought…. as long as they never bring Jagger Cates back. Not even going to elaborate on that one… we all know what he turned into…… At least if Dev & Karen were related and both resurrected, it would give Scotty some relatives who aren’t Frodd! (On that subject, why the Hell don’t they bring Serena Baldwin back?)
Only problem with all of the above is that GH appears to be cutting their cast at the moment, so it’s not at all likely that all these people will be returning soon. Though they could always cut Frodd, Whiny Heiny, and Ava to make room for some of them…..

WGA and AMPTP Reach Tentative Deal to End Writers Strike

Looks like we are close, very close, to the writing teams at your favorite soap operas returning to their jobs with news on Sunday that finally the WGA and AMPTP have reached a tentative deal. What remains is the fine print, and having the WGA vote to ratify their contracts.
This is welcome news to the television, streaming and motion picture industry that after five months of a strike has put the 2023-2024 TV season in deep water.
In a statement, the Writers Guild shared, “We have reached a tentative agreement on a new 2023 MBA (Minimum Basic Agreement), which is to say an agreement in principle on all deal points, subject to drafting final contract language. We can say, with great pride, that this deal is exceptional — with meaningful gains and protections for writers in every sector of the membership.”
As the deal goes through its final stages, the writers are still technically on strike, but picketing outside studios and shows has now been suspended.

Among the writers’ demands that they fought for are: higher residuals from streaming shows, minimum staff sizes to prevent the use of “mini rooms” and protections from the use of AI. The hope within the entertainment industry is that the new deal for the WGA will move along a new contract for SAG-AFTRA (actors) with the AMPTP. As of Monday, SAG-AFTRA is still on strike.

As for your favorite soap operas, during the strikes, the shows were written by non-union writers or “fi-core” writers who gave up their union benefits in order to continue working.
The next steps in process will see the WGA negotiating committee vote on “whether to recommend the agreement and send it on to the WGAW Board and WGAE Council for approval,” tentatively scheduled for Tuesday. Another vote by the board and council could lift the strike “restraining order”and allow scribes to “return to work during the ratification vote”.
So, are you happy to know that the writing teams from your favorite soaps are about to return to work and helm the scripts and the vision of the shows? Comment below.

General Hospital Alum Richard Simmons ‘Not Interested’ In Biopic with Pauly Shore Portraying Him

Former General Hospital guest star and fitness guru, the reclusive Richard Simmons, has come forward and addressed actor and comedian, Pauly Shore’s wish to play the 70’s and 80’s pop culture icon in a biopic about his life.
Shore previously took to social media and on X shared a side-by-side of him and Simmons. Accompanying the post, Pauly expressed: I’ve noticed the reactions to me playing #RichardSimmons in a biopic. I heard he’s living in Big Bear. We’ve been playing phone tag (yes, he has a phone). I’m trying to make it happen, you guys. In the meantime, hit up all the big producers. I’ll see you at @TheAcademy 2025!”
However, TMZ’s sources are reporting on Saturday that Simmons is not in favor of Shore playing him in a film or anyone else, or any biopic on his life.
The outlet shared that Richard’s reaction was that he was aware of the effort behind a biopic, mostly spear-headed by Pauly. but that he just doesn’t want to be involved. Simmons also added that he likes Pauly a lot, but he’s not biting, despite the public’s urging on social media about the idea of a movie on his life.

Born Milton Teagle “Richard” Simmons, he became part of the public conscious back in the 70’s and 80’s with exercise studios and the ability to help his clients lose weight; many of them were celebrities. Simmons himself, admitted to at one time to being overweight, and getting into fitness helped him maintain a healthy living style and he wanted to help others.
Later, he began a four-year recurring run on General Hospital playing himself from 1979-1983. Simmons returned to the show in 2013 for the Nurses’ Ball to taunt Lucy (Lynn Herring). He also was host of the Emmy-award winning, The Richard Simmons Show, which focused on personal health, fitness, exercise, and healthy cooking. Over the last several years, Simmons has withdrawn from public life.
What would you think of a Richard Simmons biopic and if it included some moments in front of the camera and behind the scenes of what went down when he appeared on GH? Do you think it will ever happen given Simmons current position on the matter? Let us know in the comment section.

General Hospital’s John J. York Reveals Potential Transplant Donor: “I Believe They Found a Match”

Promising news for General Hospital’s John J. York (Mac Scorpio). The actor who went public with his health battle shared Friday on Good Morning America that a life-saving blood stem cell transplant donor may have been located.
An emotional York told GMA, “I believe they found a match, perfect match, which will make me cry. So we’re going to start our testing and do all that kind of stuff coming up here in about a week, and then I believe the transplant will happen, fingers crossed, in November.”
Through his association with the Be The Match organization, York located the now potential donor to help in his fight against myelodysplastic syndrome and multiple smoldering myeloma, two blood and bone marrow disorders. “

Photo: JPI
York went on to explain the difficulties he faced in trying to find a match: “Many of my family members were tested and most of them were 6 out of 12; apparently there’s markers that have to be reached. So they were on standby.”
When asked just what the GH fan favorite would want to say if given the opportunity to speak to the donor that appears to be a match, in tears, John expressed: “Thank you for saving my life. For letting me spend more time with my wife and my daughter and my son-in-law and my grandchildren and seeing this beautiful blue sky.”
John has played Mac Scorpio for 32 years and until recently had kept his battle with these two blood cancers private, but came forward to clarify why he is taking time away from GH, and how he is been trying to find a life-saving donor match.
Watch York’s segment from GMA below.
Now, share your thoughts and well-wishes as John awaits the test results from his potential donor, to hopefully undergo this life-saving transplant in November via the comment section.
