General Hospital has a history of guest stars from gone-but-not-forgotten ABC soaps All My Children and One Life to Live. Kevin Buchanan may be Port Charles’ latest visitor.
Key Takeaways
- Drew mentioned Kevin Buchanan as a way to help Curtis.
- Hilary B. Smith once came to Port Charles as Nora Buchanan.
- There have been other nods to ABC soaps through the years.
- Kevin may arrive in Port Charles.
Curtis Needs The Banner
Monet (Blythe Howard) is trying to have Curtis’s (Donnell Turner) conviction overturned, using his heroism to do so. She plans to let the world know how Curtis saved Sidwell’s (Carlo Rota) life. Drew (Cameron Mathison) pointed out that using Aurora would seem biased, and came up with a new plan: reach out to The Llanview Banner to run the story.
Llanview was the fictional town on OLTL, and The Banner is now said to be run by Kevin Buchanan (Dan Gauthier), Victoria Lord’s (Erika Slezak) oldest son. The mention may have just been a nod to the beloved soap, or it could be something more. There is a chance that a Buchanan might land in Port Charles.
Nora Buchanan Came To Port Charles
Hilary B. Smith reprised her role as Nora Buchanan with her arrival in Port Charles back in 2017. The attorney represented Valentin (James Patrick Stuart) in a custody battle with Lulu (Alexa Havins) over their daughter Charlotte (then Scarlett Fernandez). She also represented Kevin (Jon Lindstrom) when he was charged with withholding his brother, who was considered a fugitive. Nora won both cases and returned to Llanview.
Port Charles also had a visitor from Pine Valley. AMC’s Jackson Montgomery (Walt Willey) reprised his role in 2023 during a Deception crisis and lawsuit. His time was also short-lived.
Then there was Erika Slezak, who came to GH but not as her legendary character, Victoria Lord. Slezak played Ronnie, Monica’s long-lost sister.
Kevin may be the next ABC soap character to arrive in Port Charles. Drew seems to know him and could convince the newspaper owner to join Curtis’s team to help overturn his conviction. Maybe this time, the character could stay a while and spend some time with the town’s residents.
Do you think Kevin and The Banner will help Curtis?
