The week of December 23, 2019
It’s going to be a very happy holiday season for fans of Port Charles’ Q clan. Actress Jane Elliot returns as Tracy Quartermaine on Monday, December 23, just in time for Christmas.
Elliot exited the soap in 2017 when she decided to retire and move out of Los Angeles. At the time, her character relocated to Amsterdam. Word is she’s back for a short-term run, but that it could be extended.
Bonnie Burroughs is back for another stint as Sonny’s (Maurice Benard) cousin and Dev’s (Ashton Arbab) pretend grandmother, Gladys Corbin.
GH made its debut in 1963 and is the second longest-running daytime soap opera in American history. The longest-running sudser is Guiding Light. While it’s not the longest-running sudser, General Hospital is the longest-running soap opera currently on air.
The daytime drama outlasted other soaps to become a mainstay for many households! From Luke (Tony Geary) and Laura’s (Genie Francis) gripping romance and wedding, to Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard) and his mobster activities, GH knows how to please their viewers.
More than five decades of gripping drama has kept the daytime sudser on the air as other soap operas were axed. It is one of only four remaining soap operas currently on the air. The other three daytime dramas include Days of our Lives, The Young and the Restless (YR), and The Bold and the Beautiful (BB). GH airs weekdays on ABC. Check your local listings for air times.
