Flashback: 35 Years Ago Today Luke Married Laura on General Hospital

Published by

If you didn’t watch soaps, you still knew who Luke and Laura were in 1981. The supercouple basically saved General Hospital and saved the genre. They inspired a phenomenon and even a few hit songs.

When they married, a record number of viewers tuned in, and a Hollywood legend made a guest appearance–Elizabeth Taylor as Helena Cassadine.

That was 35 years ago today, and although Luke and Laura are no longer married, they’ll always have the hearts of soap fans.
