What do you think? Do you still like General Hospital TV series? Would you like to see it cancelled or renewed for additional seasons?
I actually watched a little be of gh yesterday, as I do like Tracy. But I was very shocked to see how Genie Francis is looking alot older and mature in her age. Actually all of them were except Alexis. And I realized with everything going on in the world this was a waste of my time. Sorry fans, the acting and the writing is to off the wall. Someone dies one year and comes alive the next year.. Go figure?????It is not even reality anymore. I was thinking maybe I could get back into it, but sorry fans, it… Read more »

Love the show. Been watching since I was in my mother’s womb. Keep it. After all these years, these characters are friends.
I love General Hospital! I would be lost without this show. I’ve watched it for 45 years.
This show is trash and it’s only gonna keep getting wrost cancel it.
I hope Willow and Micheal fall in love and stay together, we need some good charter on here not just villains love the show but would like to see some good things happen.
I love this show. I have been watching since I was 5 with my grandmother. I have seen The coming and goings. But that’s the show. This is my therapy I record it everyday and watch at night before bed . Please don’t take it away.
I have watched GH since the early 70’s and have enjoyed every minute of it; I would not like to see the show be cancelled I would love for it to be renewed; I would love to see more of the unexpected instead of the predictable; it would be very nice to see the show and think “Wow I didn’t see that coming” For sure please renew the show I think it has really great potential going forward
Love General Hospital. Have watched it when it first aired. Please keep the show on. There are way to many talk shows on. Love the actors and the story lines.
I had voiced this opinion once before that the writers lost incite on there objectives. I can understand why Mr. Geary left the show years age, al tho I would not want to go back there. I feel some of the actors leave alot to be desired. I don’t know if it is the producers or the actors, there is no art to it, years ago the writing and actors were good…..Today not so good, actors, producers and the writers. I am so tired of living Sonny’s life and the Spencers lfe, bring something new if you are going to… Read more »
the problem is the writers. Since Lucky Gold started the stories have gotten very predictable.
The show sucks now. All it is is the same stories over and over again. Or at least that’s how it’s been for Sonny and Carly, the only reason I watch. And there aren’t even substantial breaks in between. Literally months, not years. Nell targeting Carly again and again since 2016 is the perfect example of this. And the only reason they’re dragging this $h!t out is probably so jaxass can f**k Carly again. It’s just sick, and I’m sick of it. That moron never had any purpose beyond messing with Sonny’s love life. And to make things even worse,… Read more »
I love the show! I have been watching since I was a little girl. Unfortunately I work during the and cant watch when it comes on but I watch it every night on HULU
I’m 59 been watching since I was in diapers with my mom and am still very addicted to the show. I would love to see it continued on these characters are family to me, I grew up with all of them and it would break my heart to see it end. With all that’s going on these days I need this one positive in my life to look forward to. Please don’t cancel my favorite show ever.
Thank you long time viewer and family, carole
