General Hospital will be preempted the week of September 30th. That being said, there will only be three episodes during the week instead of five. So, what is the cause of the preemption, and what days will be affected? Keep reading for more details on the situation.
General Hospital Preempted Week Of 9/30
For the week of September 30th through October 4th, General Hospital will be preempted. Therefore, it will be a three-episode week which no fan likes. It is a rarety that soap operas ever do not air new episodes or do not air the show at all so it has to be something big. This week is big for GH for several reasons. According to Monsters & Critics, Port Charles will be on fire, especially since November sweeps are a little over a month away. Lucky (Jonathan Jackson) coming home to save his sister is huge as is Jagger Cates’ (Adam J. Harrington) murder.
Carly (Laura Wright) has fears when it comes to Jason (Steve Burton) as well as Lucky. Yet, Alexis (Nancy Lee Grahn) is the one saying she killed Jagger when that is false. Molly knows her mother did not murder anyone and wants Sonny (Maurice Benard) to finally pay for his mistakes. Now, one big shocker was when Jason and Anna kissed last week on the Thursday, September 26th episode. Sparks no one saw flying but here they are. With Sam (Kelly Monaco) preparing to exit, why not have him find love elsewhere?
That being said, what about this three-day week of General Hospital, and why might that happen? It all has to do with sports. The show will not air on Tuesday, October 1st, or Wednesday, October 2nd because of baseball. That is already distressing for viewers but there’s more bad news. A wild card game may make it just a two-episode week if there is a game on Thursday, October 3rd, as well. So, count on Monday, September 30th for sure along with Friday, October 4th.
Jason & Anna?
Aside from all that is going on with General Hospital, fans did not care for the moment between Jason and Anna. In fact, they were sickened by it. First off, Jason dated Robin for a very long time and Anna is her mother so that’s offputting but together, they just don’t work:
- Jason and Anna!!!! Noooooooo 😮
- Cancel the show or rewrite the whole scene
- Anna & Jason…YUCK!!!!!!!!!
- Anna. Jason. Anna?? Jason??? ANNA &&&&& JASON??!!!!?!!!? Who the heck is writing this crap?????
They are also appalled that Kelly Monaco has been fired and demanding she be rehired by the show. It makes no sense that she is leaving and they want her to stay understandably.
Are you shocked by what is going on with the show and how do you feel about having a shorter week?
