General Hospital News and Spoilers: Maurice Benard Reveals Upcoming Guest, This Blast From The Past Sends Fans Back To The Golden Era

Maybe it’s just me but I find that nostalgia has a way of bringing communities together. Like, when you and a life long friend begin to reminisce about the days of old, and reflect on the good times. In doing so we tend to remember certain people and events that bring a sense of comfort to mind.

For me, the same goes for television and music. Almost all of today’s top 40 pop songs contain music samples from the past. So when you hear this fresh sound with a familiar twist, you kinda feel right at home. Well, that’s how it is for me when my faves from the past return.

I started watching General Hospital in the 1990s like many of you. And I can honestly say that this era seems to have left the most permanent mark on GH fans. That said, do you remember the popular character, Karen Wexler, played by Cari Sheen? She was right there in the middle of heated storylines involving strip clubs, drugs, and Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard).

General Hospital 1992 The Island

It was the age of “The Island,” when Karen, Jason Quartermaine (Steve Burton), and Jagger Cates (Antonio Sabato Jr.) got stranded on an island. Moreover, it was the first jig storyline my pre-teen self really got into. And for that I will always remember and be grateful I beg and watching GH when I did.

At a recent fan event in Royal Oak Michigan, Maurice Benard discussed GH, mental illness, and everything in between. A hot topic was definitely his YouTube channel, State of Mind. He uses the platform to interview past and present co-stars, and anyone who wants to share their story.

General Hospital Spoilers: Jason Is Awake And Things Are Much Different

Jason Morgan (Steve Burton) was the victim of a hit on him that was put out by Cyrus Renault (Jeff Kober).

General Hospital spoilers reveal Renault’s mission is incomplete as Jason Morgan is alive and wakes up and is talking, but is confused. In the GH preview for what’s next, Jason is seen asking why he is here in the hospital.

Things are much different now that Sam has signed Danny and Scout’s proxy rights over to Valentin Cassadine (James Patrick Stuart) in exchange for her freedom to be with Jason. Will she tell Jason how she is able to stay with him? Will Jason even remember Sam?

Jason Morgan has suffered head trauma and has just woken up after surgery. It’s anyone’s guess if Jason will wake with old memories as his life as Jason Quartermaine, or if he will stay true to the Jason Morgan personal. GH rumors hint that Jason Morgan is here to stay and ready to endure the danger and drama Cyrus Renault is about to unleash.

General Hospital Poll: Will Jason Wake Up As Jason Quartermaine Or Jason Morgan?

Jason Morgan (Steve Burton) was victim of a mob hit by Cyrus Renault (Jeff Kober), in an attempt to get closer to Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard). Renault wants to take over Sonny’s territory in Port Charles, run General Hospital, and make the PCPD corrupt.

Jason has now been rushed to the hospital as he remains unconscious while the doctors run tests. It’s likely Jason has suffered brain injuries as a result of the crash and there is a possibility of becoming brain dead. In the past, Jason has suffered multiple head traumas following the initial car accident he was involved in with his brother AJ Quartermaine (Sean Kanan). Back then, Jason Quartermaine lost all recollection of his identity and became Jason Morgan. Sonny took him in and he then built a new life. A life many cannot see him leaving behind. That leaves the ultimate question… When Jason wakes up from a coma, which identity will he assume? Will he have the desire to follow in his father Alan’s (Stuart Damon) footsteps and become a doctor at GH? Or will Jason say true to his Morgan name and remain loyal to Sonny, Carly (Laura Wright), and Sam (Kelly Monaco)?

Will He Wake Up As Jason Quartermaine Or Jason Morgan?

General Hospital Spoilers: Jason Morgan Suffers Serious Injuries, Will He Awaken As The Old Jason Quartermaine?!

Jordan Ashford (Briana Nicole Henry) and Jason Morgan (Steve Burton) has a private conversation at the courthouse about how Jason came to work for Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard). Jordan mentioned that she did her research on Jason, knowing all about his car accident with his brother, AJ Quartermaine (Sean Kanan), and how when he woke up from the crash he had no memories of his past life. Thus resulting in the identity change from Quartermaine to Morgan, and thriving under Sonny’s wing.

All new General Hospital spoilers for Friday have revealed that Jason Morgan has been involved in a motorcycle crash causing serious injuries. He is found unconscious on the pavement just after he told Sam McCall (Lindsay Hartley, Kelly Monaco), that he chose Carly Corinthos (Laura Wright) as his next of kin.

After Jason and Jordan’s conversation, Genera Hospital rumors started swirling, making claims that Carly May have to make an important decision, and that Jason Morgan just might wake up as the old Jason Quartermaine.

With everything that is going on with Jason and Sam, the danger of his work, and how his family’s company is about to be taken right from under their noses by Valentin Cassadine (James Patrick Stuart), this could very well be the perfect time for Jason to wake up as his old self again.

If Jason leaves his identity as Morgan behind, Will Sam embrace a softer Jason and will Sonny and Carly be able to handle the change in the Jason they have known and loved?

General Hospital Recaps: Remember When? Island Edition

Throughout the years of this pleasantly long soap life, General Hospital has made history time and time again with it’s iconic storylines. Due to our nation’s current situation with the Covid-19 Pandemic, those creative and legendary stories won’t be able to tell a new story as of now, or even in the near future. Although this won’t be forever, it is still difficult for the cast, crew, and fans alike to wrap our heads around the reality of it all. While we sit and wait for our world as we know it to go back to normal, we can reflect on the happy and fond memories we have from our favorite Daytime Drama.

As fashion trends and TV show reboots from the 1990s have begun to resurface, it seems fitting to put focus on one very memorable General Hospital storyline from the 1990s. In the early 1990s I personally, got sucked in and swept away when I started watching GH with my mom and sister and the story that was front and center revolved around Jason Quartermaine- now Jason Morgan- (Steve Burton), Jagger Cates (Antonio Sabato Jr.), and Karen Wexler (Cari Shayne).

Romance, drama, and adventure followed these three wherever they went- even on a deserted island! After being shipwrecked, they were stranded on a deserted island, making things very awkward for everyone involved since Jagger and Karen were a couple, Jason was annoyed, and the two men weren’t too keen on each other. This love triangle was secondary to that of Jagger, Karen, and Brenda Barrett (Vanessa Marcil), but developed as Jason Quartermaine was basically a third wheel when he, Jagger, and Karen were stuck on a deserted island.

Tension was thick between Jason and Jagger, and since Karen was the reason, there was tension and awkwardness all around. In one climatic scene, Jagger walked up as Jason embraced Karen from behind. Of course, Jagger was angry and jealous, but it wasn’t what it looked liked. Jason was comforting Karen after being by the attempted rape. Jason Morgan has always been a savior to women. He is a natural protector, quick thinker, and a fighter for what’s right. Jason Quartermaine never lost that part of himself, even after the car accident with his brother AJ (Sean Kanan), leading him to change his name from Quartermaine to another family name, Morgan.

At some point, Jason and Jagger had to put their pride and differences aside in order to work together to survive. Jagger was the muscle, while Jason was both the brains of the operation along with being strong and resourceful. Karen was resourceful in her own right, but definitely played the role of damsel in distress very well.

Do you remember Jason Quartermaine before he became Jason Morgan? Take a look at the clip below of young Jason, Jagger, and Karen, while stuck on the island in the early 1990s. For me personally, this is where it all began… welcome to the 90s!

Confirmed! Steve Burton OUT at Y&R

SteveBurtonrecastSteve Burton left his 21 year run on ABC’s General Hospital in 2012. He played the iconic role of Jason Quartermaine/Morgan, and become the Daytime TV face of the Port Charles mob, alongside c0-star Maurice Benard (Sonny Corinthos).

Burton’s departure from his role as Jason on GH became one of the biggest upsets in Daytime. Burton’s decision came as a result of what was said to be what was best for his family. He joined the cast of CBS’ The Young and the Restless, as Dylan McAvoy.

The role of Jason Morgan was recast by Y&R vet, Billy Miller. It was hard for fans to accept at the beginning, however, JaSam fans have accepted and embraced the new role.

Steve Burton has confirmed via Twitter, his departure from Y&R this coming December, at his contract’s end.

What will Steve decide next?

Would you like to see him reprise his role as Jason Morgan on General Hospital?

Jason Morgan: I’ll Be Home for Christmas

This year, there may just be a Christmas miracle. Although Jason is technically “home,” he doesn’t actually know it. He doesn’t know his place in this world, he doesn’t even know his own real name. What he does know right now, is that he has a true friend in Elizabeth Webber, and that he has an undeniable connection to Danny.

Brand new General Hospital spoilers insinuate that Jake will finally remember exactly who he is, who is son, is, who his wife is, and who is friends and family are. At this point is has not been confirmed, but there is a strong believe that Jake will be revealed as Jason the week of December 22nd. If General Hospital rumors regarding this are true, this would mean that Jason would be home for Christmas. Fans have been waiting for what seems like forever for a JaSam reunion, and it looks like we might get our Christmas miracle.

Share this post if you want Jason home with Sam and Danny for Christmas!

Steve Burton’s Last Day at General Hospital

Yesterday September 27, 2012, was the last day of Steve Burton’s 21 year long career of playing GH’s Jason (Quartermaine) Morgan. All throughout the day, cast mates posted pictures, Tweeted, and posted Facebook messages showing their love and support for such a dear friend and asset to General Hospital. The entire cast wore black T shirts on Steve’s last day taping on the GH set in honor of Jason. Steve Burton is off to live in Tennessee with his family, something he has always wanted to do, and felt that now is the best time to fulfill that dream. As a fan, and like most of us, I do not know what comes next for Jason Morgan and all the ways he fit into the story lines. My heart breaks for JaSam and the fact that if Jason is written off, Sam will lose her soul mate in some way or another, Sonny, Spinelli, and Carly will lose their best friend. And who knows, that may be good for Liz, out of sight, out of mind, right? haha. Might be just what she needs to get over him. Here are some featured Tweets regarding Steve’s last day.
