General Hospital Message Board

Asher Antonzyn (Danny Morgan): Jason (Steve Burton) and Sam’s (Kelly Monaco) son will be interacting with Elizabeth (Rebecca Herbst) this week.

Jeremy Brandt (FBI Counsel Reynolds): The attorney appears on September 17 as the fallout from Alexis’s (Nancy Lee Grahn) arrest for the murder of John Cates (Adam Harrington) continues to unfold. On prime-time, Brandt has appeared on NCIS, NCIS: Los Angeles, Criminal Minds and more.

Lindsay Hartley (Sam McCall): Hartley will once again be filling in for Kelly Monaco as Sam this week and is slated to appear in multiple episodes. This batch of shows, Digest has learned, was filmed at the same time Hartley came in to sub as Sam for the funeral of the baby Sam’s sister Kristina (Kate Mansi) was carrying for Molly (Kristen Vaganos) and TJ (Tajh Bellow), but because GH often shoots segments of episodes out of order, there was a lag time of several weeks before Hartley’s work made it to air.

Jim Hanna (Judge Otis): Alexis appears before this judge in court on September 17. Hanna’s previous TV credits include Hacks, Palm Royale and Young Sheldon.

Alexa Havins (Lulu Spencer Falconeri): The popular All My Children alum, who played Babe Carey Chandler, is taking over the role of Luke (Anthony Geary) and Laura’s (Genie Francis) only daughter. As she fell into a coma following a bomb blast, Lulu was trying to tell ex-husband Dante (Dominic Zamprogna) that she still loved him. That happened in 2020, ushering her former portrayer, Emme Rylan‘s exit from the show.

Michael E. Knight (Martin Grey): Laura and Cyrus’s (Jeff Kober) attorney sibling is headed back to the canvas after an absence that kicked off in February. Knight spoke exclusively to Digest about his comeback here.

Who’s Going

Kelly Monaco (Sam McCall): Monaco is temporarily off screen this week while Lindsay Hartley pinch-hits.
