The week of January 31, 2022
Vernee Watson continues her latest story arc as Stella Henry. She’ll confront Marshall (Robert Gossett) on Monday, January 31.
Bradford Anderson returns to Port Charles as Damian Spinelli on Thursday, February 3. Look for Kelly Monaco’s Sam to seek out the computer wiz’s assistance.
Max Decker has taken on the role of Victor’s (Charles Shaughnessy) bodyguard, Johan. The actor likely looks familiar to daytime fans. He previously played Carlos Reyes on All My Children (2002-2004) and had short-term gigs on Days of our Lives as Max and Zig.
Holly Gagnier wrapped up her gig as Jennifer Smith, after attending Luke’s funeral. Gagnier first appeared as the character in 2015.
GH made its debut in 1963 and is the second longest-running daytime soap opera in American history. The longest-running soap is Guiding Light. While it’s not the longest-running serial, General Hospital is the longest-running soap opera currently on air.
The daytime drama outlasted other soaps to become a mainstay for many households!

It is one of four soap operas currently on the air. The other three daytime dramas include Days of our Lives (DOOL), The Young and the Restless (YR), and The Bold and the Beautiful (BB). General Hospital (GH) airs weekdays on ABC. Check your local listings for airtimes.
