As viewers know, General Hospital has seen some major departures and returns in 2024. While a number of viewers were sad to see Gregory Chase (Gregory Harrison) and Finn (Michael Easton) head off the show, and several were disheartened to watch as Spencer (Nicholas Chavez) was presumed dead, nothing was quite as devastating for fans as saying goodbye to the one and only Sam McCall (Kelly Monaco). After 20-plus years on the soap, I can hardly blame those still upset by the demise of one of the famous Davis women.
But the year wasn’t completely one filled with gloomy exits. After all, Lucky (Jonathan Jackson) and Lulu (Alexa Havins) are back on the scene, Lucas (Van Hansis) is working at the hospital again, Ric (Rick Hearst) is stirring up trouble for many in Port Charles per usual and my favorite comeback was Mr. Stone Cold himself, Jason Morgan (Steve Burton). While I have mixed feelings about some of the storylines surrounding these returns, I’m sincerely glad to see these characters back on the General Hospital canvas.
