General Hospital (GH) spoilers tease that time flies when we’re having fun and the last six months have rushed by with Steve Burton back onscreen as Jason Morgan. The fan fave returned to the Port Charles, New York based show in March and this is what Burton had to say about his second triumphant return to the ABC sudser.
General Hospital Spoilers – Steve Burton’s Second Return Has Amazing
Burton co-hosts the Daily Drama podcast with his GH co-star Bradford Anderson who plays Damian Spinelli. Taking a fan question, Anderson asked Burton if his 2024 return feels different from his 2018 return.
In case you missed it, Burton first return occurred in September 2017 after leaving GH in 2012 and portraying Dylan MacAvoy on CBS’s The Young and the Restless.
Then in 2021 he left the show again after declining to get the network’s mandated COVID-19 inoculation. During his break he returned to the show and role in which he made his acting debut: Days of our Lives as Harris Michaels.
GH Spoilers – Jason Morgan is Stone Cold
Many daytime fans thought it would be a matter of time before Burton came back to play the iconic role of Stone Cold. They were right.
According to Burton “This return’s different because so much has happened in my life. We all went through COVID and so many different things in life. It’s been amazing.” Burton also divorced his longtime wife Sheree in 2023, after she announced on social media that she was pregnant with another man’s child.
General Hospital Spoilers – Steve Burton Has Gratitude
Burton recognized his fans at the same time saying “I’m grateful to be back, grateful that you guys watch the show.”
Things were dicey when Stone Cold first showed his face in Port Charles this year. He allowed his loved ones to believe that he was dead and seeing him alive brought about love but also anger.
Most notably he was estranged from his bromance with Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard) and it’s only been recently that they have made up.
GH spoilers – What Happens Next in Port Charles, New York?
We would have liked to have seen a better played-out reunion, seeing as how Sonny nearly unalived Jason. But apparently bygones were bygones with a couple of words and now Sonny has his enforcer back.
What does this mean for Brick “Just Brick” (Stephen A. Smith) who came along to help Sonny after Jason’s death? Tell us GH fans, do you want to see more or less of Brick now that Jason’s back?
