Now that Jonathan Jackson is back as legacy character Lucky, it’s easy for many long-time General Hospital viewers to ship LL2. But Elizabeth was part of another beloved pairing not too long ago, and those devoted shippers are torn.
Lucky vs. Franco
One viewer took to the GH Reddit to share their thoughts on Lucky and Elizabeth (Rebecca Herbst) vs. Franco (Roger Howarth) and Elizabeth.
“None of you love Liz and Lucky like I love them. They are the reason I fell in love with GH,” the fan started their post. When Lucky ‘died’ in that fire, that was it for me,” they admitted. “Then one day, I tuned in on a whim and it was the day that Liz was waiting at the alter for Franco, and they play the montage of those two and OMG. I went back and saw their whole story.”
Making The Case for Friz
Many responded with their love for Franco and Elizabeth, who were together from 2016 to 2021 when Franco was killed by Peter (Wes Ramsey).
“I loved the chemistry that he and Liz had. I can’t wait for the day five years or a decade from now that he shows up and they get back together,” a hopeful viewer wrote, while another made the argument, “Franco and Liz had the best love story imo [in my opinion] in the last 20 years.”
There were just as many anti-LL2 commenters as there were Friz lovers.

“It annoys me to see Liz and Lucky portrayed as some kind of star-crossed soulmates when Liz fought so hard to get Franco back,” a viewer shared. “I can agree Franco was there for Liz and the boys when Lucky wasn’t,” said another.
Making The Case for LL2
Lucky fans jumped to the Spencer’s defense.
“Now that JJ’s Lucky is back, I’m watching a lot more,” one viewer revealed, while another explained, “No matter what issues I have with LL2 right now, I will take them with a big kiss-ass smile on my face over anything Liz and Franco.”

Many viewers were also quick to explain why Elizabeth shouldn’t have been paired with the former serial killer.
“Franco was a terrible character, should’ve left it alone with James Franco instead of recasting the role and excusing all his sh—y actions on a ‘brain tumor,'” said one viewer. “Too bad Franco was a retcon rapist who got paired with a rape victim who he disrespected as an artist and who got sidelined to make way for him,” another viewer brutally put it.
And, of course, if those two pairings don’t work out, there’s always this viewer’s opinion: “Elizabeth should have been with only one person since 2006, and that is Jason (Steve Burton)!”
