We have been watching Jason Thompson play the role of Dr. Patrick Drake for 7 years now. Since 2007 we have been able to recognize and appreciate his abilities as an actor. It’s always great to hear what General Hospital co-workers and TPTB think of our favorite stars.
In a recent article from Michael Fairman, he explains that in an interview on the red carpet for the 41st annual Daytime Emmy Awards, Frank Valentini let him in on what Patrick Drake will be up to throughout this Summer. He gives kudos to Jason Thompson for his amazing portrayal of the talented, good looking, father of the year, Dr. Patrick Drake. Frank Valentini revealed, “A lot will happen with Patrick over the summer and into the Fall, and we also have Sabrina’s return. Jason Thompson is a tremendous actor who is constantly refining and reworking his craft. He’s always in class, and he is such a wonderful guy and amazing.”
Valentini also gave major props to other actors on General Hospital. He explain that when casting new actors, they do it very carefully in order to keep up with the incredible talent that already exists in Port Charles. He mentioned Maurice Benard (Sonny Corinthos), Laura Wright (Carly Corinthos Jacks), and Nancy Lee Grahn (Alexis Davis). In response to a question asking about the casting of Maura West (Ava Jerome), Donna Mills (Madeline Reeves), and Michelle Stafford (Nina Clay), he stated, “We have a tremendous cast, and we choose everyone very carefully, because of the caliber of actors such as Maurice Benard (Sonny), Laura Wright (Carly,) and Nancy Lee Grahn (Alexis) … you’ve got to bring in some pretty big guns to compete with them. You will see Donna Mills (Madeline) again this summer.”
It seems like it’s been a while since anyone has gotten married in the busy town of Port Charles. Patrick and Sabrina may be the latest wedding but they technically didn’t even get married. Timing is a bit overdue and fans are looking forward to seeing their favorite couples dive in to wedded bliss. Unfortunately, that isn’t always the case when in Port Charles. People marry for all sorts of reasons, including protection against the law, like when Jason married Brenda in order to avoid testifying in court. Or when Jax married Alexis and Ned married Chloe just to name a few.
So what will it be this time? Will Maxie Jones marry Aussie Levi Dunkleman? Rumor has it that Levi will be facing deportation due to an expired or non existent visa. Maxie is hell bent on blaming Nathan for setting the deportation in motion. Will she self destruct and choose to blindly disregard Nathan’s concerns? Perhaps she will marry Levi in order to keep him in the country. Levi seems to have quite a hold on Maxie’s thought process. It is very possible that he will play his little mind games and convince her that the two should wed.
We all hope Maxie wakes up and sees Levi for the deceitful, manipulative little control freak he really is. She really needs to surrender to her knight in shining armor, aka, Detective Nathan West.

Patrick, Sam, Silas, and other residents of Port Charles are finally about to wrap up the “who done it” story involving the car accident involving the death of Sabrina and Patrick’s baby, Gabriel. For weeks it has looked as though Rafe was responsible for running Patrick, Sabrina, and Emma off the road the night of Emma’s dance recital. There was a lot going on that night as Ava threatened Carlos by claiming he would warn him with targeting Sabrina. Fluke also warned little Spencer Cassadine to keep his mouth shut to Sonny or he would hurt his little Emma Drake. Then through the cocaine using Rafe Kovich into the mix. Now that we know that Rafe was in fact driving the car that ran Patrick and Sabrina off the road, then next twist keeps us wondering why.
In an intense getaway with Molly in the car, Rafe told her that he was not high when he ran the car off the road. He proceeded to tell her that it wasn’t an accident and that someone put him up to it. But who? Why? There are a couple theories…
Fluke. He is ruthless and extremely dangerous and obviously has no reservations about hurting a child. Whose to say he didn’t make Rafe cause the accident in exchange for drugs since Rafe is lacking in the finance department.
Nina. She caught Rafe with cocaine, and now she wants to blackmail him. She easily could have had him run them off the road in order to try and set up Silas.
Ava. Perhaps she got in contact with Rafe just to do her dirty work and follow through with her threat on Sabrina.
Which of these theories sounds most accurate? If you have your own theory on who put Rafe up to causing the accident, please share and comment below. We look forward to hearing your input!
Ryan Paevey has been such a delightful newcomer to the GH cast. He has amazing chemistry with co-star Kirsten Storms (Maxie Jones), he’s easy on the eyes, and his role as Detective West is nothing short of sweet, sexy, compassionate, and much more. He is quite a catch and right now Maxie is blind as a bat!
Nathan’s first few months in Port Charles have been quite eventful. His recently found out that his mother, Madeline Reeves (Donna Mills) is actually his Aunt. His Mother is none other than Dr. Liesl Obrecht (Kathleen Gati) who is actually Madeline’s sister. He just met his sister, Dr. Britt Westbourne… and who he thought was his sister, Nina Clay, is actually his cousin. Britt and Nathan share a mother, and with all these women in his life, they have yet to touch base on who his Father is. In a recent interview with Soaps.com, actor Ryan Paevey was asked about his GH family connections. In response Paevey replied, “I think we’ll meet him. If I had to venture a guess, I would probably have to say that he’s going to be a Cassadine.”
If ever General Hospital touches on Nathan’s paternal family background, which Cassadine are you rooting for to be his father?
As it gets closer to the 4th of July, we know that General Hospital is going to be explosive! Fans are on edge with the rumors surrounding the 4th of July events in Port Charles.
Fans are anxiously anticipating rumors involving a car accident with some of the Port Charles residents.According to recent spoilers, it has been noted that the General Hospital staff will be busy taking care of car accident victims. There are rumors that imply Molly is in danger and that Rafe dies. During the discussion between Molly and Rafe the other day, Rafe apologized for acting out of jealousy and messing things up for her and TJ. They mended their friendship although Molly has no idea of Rafe’s recent drug use. Perhaps the two will get in a car together with Rafe being under the influence and be involved in an accident.
Here’s to hoping Molly and Rafe make it through this dramatic week!
The last few weeks have been crazy with the announcement of Billy Miller (ex Y&R star), coming to General Hospital. It has been rumored for months that Miller would replace Steve Burton as the legendary mob enforcer, Jason Morgan.
In a recent interview with TV Guide’s Michael Logan, Steve Burton wanted to set the record straight and let everything know why he left General Hospital. He said that money was definitely an issue, and when it was time for Burton’s contract to be up, executives over at General Hospital were not willing to negotiate. Burton said to Logan, “What you and I both know – that ‘GH’ didn’t make a deal with me. And that’s the truth. My contract was up and they didn’t want to play ball and make it work. At the time, I didn’t want to throw anyone under the bus over there but of course, as soon as it was announced I was going to “Y&R,” people thought the whole thing was planned by Jill on Day 1, which it was not.” Steve Burton stated that he did not necessarily want to leave his 20 year role of Jason Morgan and that GH had the opportunity to bring him back. That being said, he wants fans to know that going to The Young and the Restless was not a set up between himself and Jill Farren Phelps. Burton did what was best for himself and for his family at that time.
Steve Burton is now happy over at The Young and the Restless although sad that things didn’t work out for him over at General Hospital. It has been said that the door is always open for Burton at GH, but for now he will be staying at Y&R as Dylan.
The 41st Annual Daytime Emmy Award Pre-Nominations have been announced. The names below reflect only General Hospital actors. Congratulations to all the hard working actors and actresses at General Hospital! Good Luck on your Emmy nominations!!!
General Hospital real life married couple, Kirsten Storms (Maxie Jones) and Brandon Barash (Johnny Zacchara) welcomed a baby girl into their lives! Congratulations to these GH favorites on their new family member!
General Hospital Blog will keep fans posted as details come in.
The latest and largest rumor circulating the soap opera scene is that the legendary character of Jason Morgan is set to be recast. Steve Burton left General Hospital after playing Jason Quartermaine (Morgan) for 21 years. After the actor left GH, he soon signed a contract with The Young and the Restless.
Fans have been missing their beloved Jason for a little over a year now. We have mourned his loss right alongside his wife Sam, his family, and friends. When Jason was shot and kicked off the docks at Pier 52 by Cesar Faison, it left it sort of open ended for the actor and/or character to return to the canvas. Now that Sam has been trying to move on with Dr. Silas Clay, would this be the time for Jason’s return? Sam had been talking to Patrick about his miracle in getting his wife Robin back, and she seems to be accepting after all this time, that Jason is not going to come back to her. She said to Patrick, “There’s only one miracle to go around.”
One source suggests that perhaps the role of Jason will be taken over by former Y&R actor Billy Miller. Miller has been recently replaced by David Tom in his role on The Young and the Restless. This leaves Billy Miller open to the role. Nothing has been confirmed and there is no story line in place as of yet.
Log in with Facebook and let us know what you think! Jason recast or no recast?
Sabrina Santiago (Theresa Castillo) is a wide-eyed dreamer whose own Cinderella story made her dreams a reality. She went from shy, quiet, and even nerdy young woman to a polished career woman with confidence.
General Hospital spoilers reveal that the day Sabrina has been waiting for is finally here. It’s no secret that she dreamed about this day since the moment that she laid eyes on Dr. Patrick Drake (Jason Thompson). After all she’s been through, she’s ready to settle down with the man she loves and the other girl who has his heart. Of course, Patrick and his daughter Emma (Brooklyn Silzer) are a packaged deal.
According to GH news and spoilers, today is the day that Sabrina prepares as for her wildest dreams to come true. Yes, today is Patrick and Sabrina’s wedding day! Friends and family gather at the church to watch these two become a family. But Sabrina’s one track path to romance ignores the signs. Sadly, GH rumors claim that Sabrina’s wedding day results in a calamitous display at the altar. However, she’s more than ready to become little Emma’s step mom.
After Robin’s death, the devastation and mourning set in and Patrick had to figure out how to pick up the pieces. That’s when he and Sabrina threw caution to the wind, ignoring the signs. Undeniably, Patrick’s heart is still with Robin whether she is alive or not.
As Patrick and Sabrina make their way to the altar, will Robin be able to stop the nuptials before it’s too late? Watch General Hospital today at 2PM Eastern!
