Yes! Please renew General Hospital! I’ve been watching GH from day 1 & I can’t imagine it going away. Writers spice it up. Nail biter stories instead of lame story lines. Story lines about today’s issues. Like Agnes Nixon used to write. Seeing the episode of GH closing broke my heart. Save our soap
