Great news out of Port Charles! Longtime General Hospital fan favorite, Tristan Rogers is reprising his role as Robert Scorpio.
Rogers himself confirmed the news that originated during a Daytime After Dark podcast with ABC executive Nathan Varni.
Varni had mentioned that it was in the plans to bring Scorpio back, adding, “We actually have an interesting story that the writers are working on. ”
Now Tristan took to his Twitter account and tweeted,”I’m coming back. Start work on March 19.”
Will Robert be back to help Anna (Finola Hughes) solve the mystery of the whereabouts of the child she had who’s bio-dad was recently revealed to be the evil Cesar Faison (Anders Hove)? Stay tuned!
So, excited to hear Tristan is on his way back to GH? Comment below!

Looking forward to seeing you, I was not watching when you were on before but I know you were great. The story lines need a bit of a lift and you’ll help a LOT.
I’d like to be excited, but we’ve been down this road too many times with our beloved vets.
Keep the Faith ! 🙂
i’m pretty sure… “don’t quote me on this ” READ in SOD – soap opera digest Tristan lamented.. he would not return to GH.. unless it was for more than what has been. especially for better story. and of a longer duration for it to mean any thing. sounds logical , right ? I never truly got in to Robert and Holly… I never warmed to Emma Sams I LOVE LOVE LOVE – Robert and Anna… now this is hot I always thought it so “marvel” how Tristan played Robert so … easy going about his relationship WITH Anna.. how… Read more »
Patrick…I’m with you re Robert and Holly. Never got into them as a couple either, or the Holly character for that matter. Hopefully Robert will help shake Anna out of this funk she seems to be in.
Well, Frank probably had to apologize to Tristan for the way Robert was written the past few times. The character is not filler, so Robert must be playing a key role in upcoming story.
About time, isn’t it? Now is the time to put Tristan under contract already! And bring Genie back for that “interesting story”–and put Finola in the mix–and a-w–a–a–y we go! 🙂
Agree gets those 3 gh legends in story together already!!
BEST NEWS EVER!!!!!!!!
About damned time. And let’s hope he brings Laura back with him.
Yes, like I said!
Does he have a story or will he just be on for a few shows
Sorry, not even Tristan can make this ugly story watchable. And a promised “big story” means he’s in and out for a few weeks with a few lines at the very best.
Likely in and out. And I am no fan of the lost child story Anna has. Too many lost children in Port Charles. I would accept a recast of Robin and allow Anna to have the family she already has.
Neither am I–stretches credulity–and violates Anna’s legacy. Way too far out (like all the other storylines). Not helping with viewership. I’m no longer watching but will come back to GH for Tristan AND Genie. Let’s go, already!
In the meantime, you are truly not missing much, Nancy…I am also none too thrilled with the Anna lost child storyline…I could have bought it if she had been hypnotized or brainwashed by Faison and the pregnancy occured without her knowledge or consent, but the way it has been written really does beggar belief for those of us who recall Anna as an intrepid WSB agent extraordinaire.
yes, i’m happy Tristan is coming back, hopefully a better story would be if Robert and Anna had another child together, when they were on the run back in 92, Anna could of been pregnant, in back story, anna and robert were separated after some explosion took place in some boat/ship back in Venezuela and were then presumed dead along w/ Faison if memory serves me right , of course their death took place when both Tristan and finola left GH so this is what happened offscreen, we were just told they died along w/Faison, and why Anna and Robert… Read more »
this is exactly what i assumed would be the case. That whole part of their history is untapped
aria…I like Robert being the father. And you are right, they left so much time/story offscreen and unexplored this could be the case.
that is the best news ever can’t wait to see Tristan on GH I love that man
Oh me too! I still remember the very first time I ever saw him on GH in what late ’79 or ’80? He had on a trenchcoat & it was foggy outside . . . I have loved him ever since even on Y&R where is character is such a jerk. Still love my Tristan!
Scorpio rules. I agree with the last comment. I want to be excited too, but returning for 3 weeks then your done, sometimes is flat.
Welcome back old chap. It’s been a while since you rescued Robin from Jerry Jax and saw her remarry Patrick Drake. I don’t really count the brief stint where you came to Perks with a binder that had pictures of LuLu’s fertilized eggs from Crichton-Clarke.
Without Robin on the canvas… ?
this Huntington’ disease… is throwing me for a loop. especially on how it’s dealt with Peter August. NOW … Anna is petrified… ( she screwed every thing up ) making sure there were no loopholes… in keeping her daughter with Faison hidden. she’s alarmed about Faison being diagnosed with Huntington disease. so time is off the essence… seeing as how Felicia ( god, she’s so beautiful ) went right over to see Maxie. naturally, I don’t want this passed down to Maxie child. this scare is keeping this story lit. WHO is Anna missing daughter. WOW she’s playing all the… Read more »
Patrick; I haven’t been getting much sleep lately so just in case I misinterpreted you apologies in advance but:
Anna doesn’t have a daughter. Her child is Peter/Henrik. Valentin lied to her when he told her she had a daughter…
I would agree. He is sending her on a wild goose chase. Hopefully he comes clean when he hears about the Huntington’s.
Hi Rebecca…Where did I miss that Valentin had lied to Anna about having a girl instead of a boy? If indeed even the latter is true. There were so many Cassadins, over the years,Anna, Robert, Luke, Robin, etc. in and out of clinics, disguises, in “suspended animation” in the past. Anything could be true or false. Then there is still her own twin sister. Complicated. Regardless, I’m still liking Peter August/Hendrick. Don’t know how he feels about Lulu, but I feel he’s genuine in his concern for Maxie. Loving having Triston/Robert back. He belongs along side of Anna one way… Read more »
Hey Rose… It seemed to me that after Valentin told Anna she had a girl he called Peter and told him he’d thrown Anna off the track and that he (Peter) should stay in town. So, we know Peter is Faison’s son (or at least we and Peter/Henrik, himself) believe him to be… Unless it was purposely written to throw viewers off the track as well, it seemed to me that Valentin has known what happened to Anna’s child all along, never lost track of that child (Peter) and is keeping him a secret from Anna for some reason. With… Read more »
Well, hip. hip hooray! I am a huge fan of the one and only Robert Scorpio, who is cooler than the other side of the pillow.
I am no fan, however, of this dreary, depressing story which has Anna having a baby with her own personal Devil–Faison. I wish they had not gone there.
But if it brings Robert Scorpio back I shall be more forgiving of the bad writing they are affording to Finola Hughes.
Now, give Robert his own intriguing storyline–make it a good one.
And make it last for more than five minutes! The past few times Robert has landed in Port Charles the parting has not been a sweet sorrow, but a doubletake….as in what just happened? One moment Scorpio was there and the next he was gone in the blink of an eye! This charming guy is one of the most popular GH legacy characters ever and he, along with Genie’s Laura and Finola’s Anna, deserves to be feted and honored with storylines that are both substantial and respectful of their Port Charles past.
Scorpio should never, EVER be used as filler or background, that’s an insult to what this ACTOR & CHARACTER was and brought to GH..he’s still generate to much excitement and still very popular to be used in anything then 1 of the center character, he could definitely filled the void left by Tony Geary, Tristan and Robert Scorpio should’ve filled that void when Tony retired in 2015.
Luckily we havent seen or heard of Colin so maybe he is done with Y&R and GH can use him for a while.
Exactly, Del!…Instead the GH torch was passed from Luke to Sonny….and we know how well the “All Sonny all the time” format has been received!
This show has been so haphazard, and poorly written for decades now, … If they couldn’t build Laura (Genie) back, what hope is there for Scorpio. Soaps in the US these days aren’t about structured story telling, they’re more like an adrenaline rush for folks on valium. I mean no offence to my fellow fans, the only reason I still watch is for the actors, it’s TPTB and the writers who continuously offend.

Neither am I a fan of the dreary, depressing s/l of Anna’s. And I also agree: Give Tristan an intriguing story line–with Genie and Finola. “Seems like old times….”
Agree completely Nancy! It would be so FAB to have those three take out Valentin and Peter and that horrible Jim Harvey character!
Yes, let us see Robert Scorpio erupt out of the shadows of the foggy pier one night wearing his iconic London Fog rain coat and hopefully, a pair of trousers.
OMG, Harry! You’ve done it again…Hah! (Even if it was a case of wrong soap, wrong actor, unless you know something about Tristan that we don’t??? Do tell….)
@Harry…The very notion that Faison fathered at least three children of which we are now aware rather sounds as if he were running his own version of the “Lebensborn Program!” (Especially with the compliant Obrecht as his willing babymama twice over….)
Hearing is one thing…seeing is another!
I certainly hope it is long term! Kick Jordan to the curb and lets put Robert back in the commissioner’s seat where he belongs!
Yes, Timmm….YES! Jordan is the worst PCPD commish ever! Time to let a true professional take over…
“Commissioner Scorpio” has a nice ring! (Haven’t I heard that before?) 🙂
Indeed you have, Nancy, but I certainly never get tired of hearing it!
Looking forward to this. would like to see Laura in this part of the story too. Make it like the old days when Robert, Luke, and Laura did some adventures. of course, Luke wouldn’t be involved but at least we get Laura too.
Ditto!
Anna could be added in place of Luke, given us constant interesting, exciting stories that feature the original 3 old school adventure crew..Robert/Laura/Anna!!
I’ll say yes, but I’m still smarting over the Genie Francis debacle. Hopefully, I’ll be able to enjoy this… Love the show, but HATE their decision regarding her. It colors everything about GH right now and I don’t see it subsiding anytime soon. ..Just feel so disrespected… I bet not half as much as Genie, though.
Not a big fan of this stupid story line. Which it would turn out to be a falsehood and they find another reason to have Robert return.
Welcome back Tristan!
“…It colors everything about GH right now and I don’t see it subsiding anytime soon ” so agree… it’s like you start thinking of GH and you draw a blank.. because of knowing that Genie Francis was fired so handily and just so dissed the audience that you can gloss over… and TPTB can wait this out… but it’s THEIR. a gaping hole bringing Tristan Rogers… a male veteran… who is unlike any other. by GOD yes. the Jason / Sam / Drew triangle has already tanked. NOW GH is bringing back Tristan Rogers… who I want to see. I… Read more »
Tristan, this is the happiest news ever! Love Robert and I hope this is not a two day stopover for him, but a real storyline with excitement and some intrigue and lots of interaction with Anna. Welcome back!
I’m sure it will be very brief.
Tristan..
He lives in Australia, yes? …. long trip to be in GH for any length of time..
I hope he brings a tranquilizer gun with him, Anna needs a dart in the azz..
((perhaps Scorpio can calm that twitching jittery woman down down!))
Will it stop her tears? Seems like Finola has to cry in every scene…..even when she wins an award from the WSB
tears of joy 😉
hi Grant ..
at least 80% of the characters are crying, truth..
GH has become morbid, tears and tears ..
watching is like entering the depresion zone..
It is crying soap..
Anna is Jittery Twitching teared up mess .. she no longer roars she lost her strong womanhood, sigh ..
Hello Ms. su0000…
Having emotions, being all misty/weepy has nothing to do with being a strong woman. Anna can kick just as much as as she always did and when she needs to. That has nothing to do with her having emotions. She’s brains, brawn and heart. Those are good things!
What I will grant you is the show in general has focused on a lot of sad stories simultaneously which has no doubt increased the stock to rise in Kleenex as characters and viewers alike are having one group cry after another! 😉
Oh, no….you didn’t just say that, SuzieQ?!?!?!?!
Oh, Lordy Lord….all I did was take a peek….and I SAW you….cracking up….what would this site do without you?… gotta run…..
…..actually…..what would this site BE without you? Forever laughter, my friend, susu…..
LOL…just saw your tranquilizer gun…must’ve missed that when responding to Grant! Now THAT was funny!
@su…..I agree GH has turned into one big, unnecessary weepfest! Talk about a bunch of over-emoting crybabies…soooo overdone! Of course, I have remained tear-free because I find it impossible to emotionally-invest in most of these inane characters currently inhabiting Port Charles…the majority of the time I just wish they would be sucked up by some big hole in the old terrafirma! Other than some residual fondness for a few legacy players, I simply don’t give a fig what happens to any of these people!. What’s really a crying shame is to see how this once mighty soap has fallen….now that’s… Read more »
TR you really must need a paycheck you will be used to prop somebody else probably the cue card reader and the screaming woman .
More than happy, I’m freaking over the moon, the people running GH has made nothing but bad decision but this one is one of their best..Bringing Robert Scorpio back is the best thing they could’ve done, now give him a front burner interesting story, Scorpio is NO filler , you got that?
Primarily he’ll be acting with Anna – but I hope he gets some scene time with brother Mac.
I’d love to see Mac back full time…
Robert Scorpio rules Port Charles its just no way that he should only be with Anna, Scorpio should be all over canvas..Consultant the police Dept, checking on the secret WSB recruits in place of PC, visiting family, meeting new folks and just knowing everything that going on..That’s how he always was.Scorpio loom over over where.
YEA!!! Best news ever! He and Anna and Laura (Genie) could also be involved in a story!
I hope they are.
Yea!!
I love Robert Scorpio, and I hope he has a successful return. I also hope the love of his life, ‘Holly” is with him. I never could get into Anna. For those who resent the s/l of Anna having a child with Faison, do you all know Anna’s history? She was a double agent, a traitor to her country. When Robert asked her why she betrayed her country, she stated it was for the money. She also lied about meeting Faison when she entered the DVX. Faison’s mother, who was Anna’s nanny, (Nanny McTavish), stated that Anna had been knowing… Read more »
I am super excited for Robert Scorpio’s return. He is my all time favorite GH character. I hope they spark something with Anna and Robert again, it would be fun to watch. Can not wait for Tristan Rogers to grace the screen again. GH just needs to write a story worthy of RXS and Tristan will breathe new life into Port Charles again. Hope they give him quality air time and keep him back for awhile!
I am so thrilled Robert is coming back! But please pleaee please GH dont just use him to pop in and pop out….he is a legacy character and arguably the greatest character on GH ever. Tristan does such a phenomenal job as RXS and deserves to be wrote into a big storyline. The fans want it and it is looooong overdue. We want Robert Scorpio back full time to work next to another legacy character, Anna. These two together, no matter what dynamic, are incredible. Please give us Scorpio amd Devane back!
Beyond excited that Tristan will be back on GH. He has legions of fans…30 years worth and we love Robert. No matter the story he is always
compelling. Sexy Smart Cool and fantastic on screen with Anna and Mac and Luke and Laura and Holly and Frisco Katherine and Sean and Tif ..come on. There was no one like Robert Scorpio!.
love to see him return, but if he kisses Sonny”s rear, I will be gone. Want to see the old Scorpio kicking butts and taking names. The Mobs are us show no thanks. Plus bring Genie back.I hate Sonny, Carly, Sam , Jason. . Now its still all Sonny all the time Its me never watching all the time.
TR love fest it’s is a bit much yes I like Robert love to have him come back him Anna makes a good team that’s it Duke was the love of her life some of the things that was said aren’t true I have all the DVDs from the 80s to prove it gh made a mess and now they need to fix it 90% of the fans wanted Griffin to be Anna and Duke son and gh blue it Duke and Anna had the best chemistry alot of fan would love to have him back# Duke lives.

GH’s Parry Shen Delivers the ‘Power Performance of the Week’
How many of us have lost, or had to say goodbye to our best friend? Somehow fate or illness intervenes and cuts short someone you share so many memories with.
On last Thursday’s episode of General Hospital, Dr. Britt Westbourne’s (Kelly Thiebaud) family and friends gathered for her memorial at the GH chapel. However, viewers knew of the special connection between Britt and her bestie, Brad Cooper (Parry Shen).
Photo: ABC
Devastated at losing Britt, upset that she never told him she about her diagnosis with Huntington’s Disease, and mourning her death, Brad comes to her former office, where Britt was the Co-Chief of Staff at the hospital. After exchanging heartfelt moments with Britt’s mother, the grieving Liesl (Kathleen Gati), and Scott Baldwin (Kin Shriner), Brad (with a paper bag in hand) spends some time alone in Britt’s former office, which has now been cleaned out.
Next, Brad takes out a carton of ice cream (for those who know the back-story, Britt and Brad would sit together each with ice cream and watch the red carpet at the Nurses’ Ball on TV and hoot and howl at the residents of Port Charles), and thus begins a very emotional and five-hankie moment, where Brad recalls all the key moments in their friendship.
Parry Shen was so touching in this scene, that if you have been a fans of Britt and Brad’s friendship, we are sure you shed some tears.
Later, during the memorial, Brad is pained listening to the others eulogize Britt, and when it is his turn to speak, he does his best to get through it and pay homage to his best friend.
We will miss the Brad and Britt friendship as will many GH viewers for it was one-of-a-kind on the soaps – two originally, not so nice people, doing bad things and finding common ground with each other, and eventually turning their lives around and being there to support each other.
For all of these scenes mentioned above, Michael Fairman TV names Parry Shen’s work, the Power Performance of the Week. You can check out a clip featuring Shen below.
Now, let us know, what did you think of Parry’s Performance during Britt’s memorial episode? Comment below.

Adam Huss Back to GH as Nikolas Cassadine
With Marcus Coloma’s last appearance as Nikolas Cassadine on last week’s January 26th episode of General Hospital, the soap opera brought back Adam Huss to finish out the dark prince’s storyline.
According to Soaps.com. Huss aired today on the January 31st episode of the ABC daytime drama series and will finish out the scenes that were written to be portrayed by Coloma.
Adam previously subbed for Coloma back in September 2021 and again in November 2022.

After it was announced that Coloma was leaving GH, the network and the series agreed that it would be best that Marcus did come in to tape his last episodes since he was recovering from Covid-19 at the time. Thus, we are seeing those episodes featuring Huss now airing in early February.
So, glad to see Adam back to wrap Nikolas’ current storyline? Share your thoughts in the comment section below.
