Getting Lucky: Is It Time For Him To Return To General Hospital?

On General Hospital, Elizabeth is a widow, her sons are fatherless, and Laura just sent her comatose daughter to an out-of-state rehabilitation facility.

Is now the ideal time for Lucky to come home and shoulder his responsibilities? What over 5,000 devoted fans told us:

Any Luck Will Do

We’ll take any Lucky we can get, 58% of you are desperate. There are so many reasons he’s needed back in Port Charles. Liz (Rebecca Herbst), Cam (William Lipton), Jake and Aiden, not to mention Laura (Genie Francis) are just the beginning.

His exes, Sam (Kelly Monaco) and Maxie (Kirsten Storms), are also single, and the PCPD is no better than it used to be. Lucky could step right into a half-dozen storylines as if he never left. No matter what actor plays him. It’s Lucky the canvas needs, not any particular face.

Only You

On the other hand, 29% of the audience will only accept a previous Lucky. That means either Jonathan Jackson, Jacob Young (Rick; The Bold and the Beautiful), or Greg Vaughan (ex-Eric; Days of our Lives). You’ve adjusted to a new Lucky in the past. You do not have the moral fortitude to do it again. There’s a pandemic, you know. We need some good news. And something familiar.

Lucky Can Wait

And then there are the 13% who do think Lucky should come back… but not quite yet. Let Liz get over Franco’s (Roger Howarth) death. Let Maxie get over the whole Peter (Wes Ramsey) mess and have her baby. Let Sam’s whatever it is with Dante (Dominic Zamprogna) fizzle.

When Lucky finally returns, all the pieces should be in place for him to take his rightful spot on the canvas. Maybe in the summer. When all of us are ready to appreciate him fully. General Hospital (GH) airs weekdays on ABC. Check your local listings for airtimes.
