With the passing of General Hospital’s Leslie Charleson, who played Monica Quartermaine since 1977, it’s time to look forward to the next generation of Port Charles. It’s already been noted that Kristina is becoming more like her father, Sonny. And Lulu is practically a carbon copy of Luke. Other children of legacy characters are also stepping up to take on the torches of their parents and move forward. So, let’s take a look at who they are.
The Resemblances Are Uncanny
GH seems to be grooming the next generation of Port Charles residents to take over as the adults grow older. Kristina (Kate Mansi) is poised to eventually take over her dad’s mob organization. Meanwhile Lulu (Alexa Havins) is forceful and clever like Luke (Anthony Geary).
Others are similarly becoming like their parents. Molly (Kristen Vaganos) is starting to act like her dad, Ric (Rick Hearst). She even understood his point of view, especially after he proved that the death of Kristina’s baby was an accident. She totally realized the necessity of his ruthless tactics and may someday employ such measures in the courtroom.
Young Danny (Asher Antonyzyn) has the empathy of his mother, Sam (ex-Kelly Monaco), and the stoic strength of his dad, Jason (Steve Burton). It’s interesting to watch father and son converse as they’re both men of few words. While Aiden (Colin Cassidy) has the compassion of his mom, Elizabeth (Rebecca Herbst), Danny and Jake (Hudson West) have a similar dynamic to Jason and his late brother AJ (Sean Kanan).

High Adventure Looms
Robert (Tristan Rogers) and Anna’s (Finola Hughes) daughter, Robin (Kimberly McCullough), lives in California. However, there are a couple of new Scorpios on the canvas now. Sasha (Sofia Mattsson) learned recently that Robert is her dad, while Cody (Josh Kelly) found out a while ago that his father is Robert’s brother Mac (John J. York). The show needed some new Scorpio blood, and with these two taking up the mantle of their fathers, it’s only a matter of time before high adventure takes center stage.
Although he’s older than many of the characters mentioned here, Jason has not only moved back into the Quartermaine mansion after being away for several decades, but he also sided with his family over Sonny (Maurice Benard). It will be interesting to see what direction Jason goes in, especially considering his brother Drew (Cameron Mathison) is such a cad and not worthy of the Quartermaine name.
Tracy (Jane Elliot) is now the matriarch of the Quartermaines, and while she’s been a role model for Lulu, perhaps it’s time for her son Dillon to return and take up his place within the family.
