“General Hospital” storyline secrets have been revealed by none other than the head scribes, Jean Passanante and Shelly Altman, reported by ABC Soaps in Depth. The writing duo revealed key secrets such as when Jason’s [Billy Miller] memory comes back, Elizabeth Webber’s [Rebecca Herbst] redemption, and why Carlos [Jeffrey Vincent Parise] returned on canvas.
Fans have questioned which Jason will he end up being – a Quartermaine or a Morgan. Jean Passanante explained, “That’s a good question and a complicated one. We have to remember that he was Jason Quartermaine before he was Jason Morgan. His personality was altered as a result of the earlier accident, and there’s a possibility that some of the character; some of those traits have been reignited. Shelly Altman noted, “We’ve all seen stories about Dissociative Identity Disorder, and this is not it. This is a man who has lived two previous personas, and now has a third- Jake. Can him integrate all three personas in one? You’ll soon find out.”

Shelly Altman said she feels like Liz can be redeemed; however, it may take some time. Altman noted, “She is already in love with this man when the information came to her about his true identity. The beauty of a soap is the transgression is redeemable. It is an extremely complicated situation.” Passanante explained that she loved the character of Liz and believes that she loves Jason. Sorry fans, it looks like Liz will be redeemed by Jason in time.
The writing duo admitted they didn’t want to bring back Carlos Rovera, but felt like it was needed to spice up the storyline with Anna DeVane [Finola Hughes] and Sabrina’s [Teresa Castillo] baby’s paternity. His return impacts multiple storylines, so in the end it was a good thing to do for the ABC soap opera. Shelly Altman noted, “Ultimately, even though Carlos is alive, Anna as a member of law enforcement must live with the fact that she pulled the trigger four times in an attempt to kill Carlos.”

“GH” fans, do you think that Jason can find who he really in this whole mess of an identity crisis? Can Liz be redeemed and find happiness with Jason? Will Anna overcome her guilt, and bring Carlos to justice for Duke’s [Ian Buchanan] murder?

If Jason and Elizabeth stay together then you will lose a couple viewers. it has always been Jason and Sam so keep it that way
I agree if they keep Jason and Elizabeth together I will quit watching!!!!!
Same here, I been waiting a year for Jason to come back to his wife Sam, Not Jake & Elizabeth. The writers said Jason returns, why bother saying Jason is back, should have left him dead, cause this Jake don’t even excist, just dragging it out way to long if not im done .
Sam needs to take a long walk off Pier 54. This character is so insufferably annoying,
and now we can add to that by being vindictive and petty. She couldn’t get Jayyyson
back on her own, she had to take Liz down to do it. #Liason
Keep Jason and Sam. Patrick and Robin.
I Jason goes bk to Elizabeth…. well sorry I will stop watching General Hospital…. they jerk the fans one time to many
Please keep Jason with Sam I believe they will learn that they can over come anything life throws at them
Jason and Liz
Liason have NEVER been a popular anything!Guza tried and he realized that he was lied to and he saved GH, FV and his morons think they are ging to hit pay dirt with a character no one like.Theydo not love to hate Liz, we just hate her!Lets keep it moving, sh can keep butt monkey!No lets get Sam a storyline, Liz free!You people have brought back all dead people, how about bringing Sam’s daughter back.Bring back GV and do LuSam,lets see the Jizzerseally get kicked around.They are not popular and never have been and never will be,no matter who trys to make it happen!One thing if getting Liz out of Sam’s ass, than give her Jake!Lets see Sam,without having the local leach(Liz)hanging on or once.Give Sam another man,GV will be great!make him a doctor!
If you place Jason and Liz together Shelly Altman and Jean Passante might want to start looking for a new job because the viewers will voice our dismay and make certain that the top brass not only here us but feel us in the ratings!!!!!
Boo Hoo The show can’t survive without Jasam.
Let the viewers leave then. Its not called General Jasam.
Not everyone is obsessed with Jasam
But since Miller/Monaco are a couple off camera it will probably happen.
As long as Liz is redeemed in some way idc. She has always been one
of my favorites and I am tired of the viewers wanting her dead, in jail or off the show just because she is doing what the writers want her to do.
I agree with you Yvonbe Morton I can’t understand these women. I’m done.
If Jason stays with LIZARD I am done why would he stay or forgive the snake she is let that happen and you will l a lot of viewers…
If you place Jason and Liz together Shelly Altman and Jean Passante might want to start looking for a new job because the viewers will voice our dismay and make certain that the top brass not only here us but feel us in the ratings!!!!!
Let Liz have Jake/Jason,they will never be anything any way. hey can do what they want but they can’t make anyone like them.Their minions can lie abut them but that never worked out either. Now you peoiple got BH with the bighead!They firedRC, but faired to fire FV!Whatever!Give Sam her dead daughter back!
I would like to see Liz & Jason remain friends like they were before he “died”, but never as a couple again! He & Sam are soul mates & should be together!
Liz and Jason was on the good foot but not friends!
I agree if they put jason and Liz together I’m one fan that will stop watching. .if they make Liz redeemable I will stop watching. .lies and deceit she should never be able to come back from especially since this isn’t the first time she has lied to Jason and who all her lie affects thus time
Sam is no saint herself. I do not recall Sam coming clean to Jason about her scamming rich men into marriage and then taking off with a new identity. That was part of the reason for Tracy blackmailing her regarding Edward, and let us not forget her show putting her as a so called hero. Sam also slipped her way into Sonny’s bed while he was technically married to Carly. I also seem to recall her watching and allowing a mentally disturbed woman take little Jake and run off. If Liz cannot be redeemed after the crap Sam has pulled and yet redeemed something is wrong. We also cannot forget the fact that the writers originally killed off little Jake just so Sam could have a baby with Jason without any competition on that front, the writers may have denied that truth, but we really know that was the case.
Exactly, she has been a lying inconsiderate person on this she she just didn’t want Sam to have Jason, just like she didn’t before Jason died, they will lose many viewers if they keep Jason and Liz together including me!!
I agree with everyone else.. If Jason and Liz are together then many viewers will be upset and will probably stop watching! I’ve seen a lot of times when Liz was being scandalous. Even with things concerning Jason and he left her High and Dry!!! Mainly cause he had gone back to Sam!!!! He NEEDS to be with Sam! That’s his wife for crying out loud!!!!!
Jason not only has to deal with Liz’s lie, but also the people that lie affected, the fact that friends (like Carly) kept telling him to slow down and take his time, and finally come to terms with the man he was and the man he is now. As for Liz, she can probably be redeemed and I hope that works out. However, I don’t think she should be with Jason. Over the years, I’ve NEVER felt Liz fully accepted Jason. The main reason I feel she can accept him now is because he’s the version of Jason she always wanted and doesn’t appear to want to remember the past. I don’t think they will ultimately work as a couple. I would love Jason with Sam, but Jason may need to be alone for a while.
I so agree with natasha
Carly only said to slow down because she does not like Liz in the first place. If Liz had been the wife and Sam the person he was now involved with, Carly would have given a green light, pass go and given the $200, and we cannot forget how she jumped at the chance for Jason to be with Courtney despite Sonny’s misgivings.
Jason should have always been with Liz….hope he realizes this and forgives!
I 100% agree!! I have zero idea how viewers would enjoy seeing Liz lie, scheme and manipulate and still win in the end. Ridiculous! Even if you have been a Liz fan since the beginning. She’s just not the same character and I for one do not like her at all. How on earth can she be redeemed? She did it all for love? I call BS!
Carly does it all the time, why should she be the only person to play that game?
I agree Liz and Jason forever……
They are the most adorbs couple on daytime tv. #Liason
If the writers never put jason and sam back together gh will lose alot of viewers. If that was the case then they should of left Jason as Jake Doe that way Liz could of started a new life with Jake and Sam could of been with Patrick. Jason and Sam are soulmates and I read they might make Liz have another baby by Jason If that is true Cancel the damn soap.
After everything Elizabeth put everyone through, no way should she be easily redeemed. And definitely not by Sam, Jason or Carly. She is a user and a manipulater.How no one has figured this out is beyond me.
Well who the hell should redeem her. Liz was not a Saint, have always been a lying skank.The devil is busy, he have no time to redeem Liz!
Jason should definitely be with Sam,she understands him & isn’t trying to force him to be someone else. She knows as well as anyone that danger gives him an adrenaline rush so him being this cushy regular 9-5 guy isn’t going to do it for him. He’ll seek out the danger in one way or another bc that’s how he is & who he is.
How come the new writers are not listening to the fans. Almost everyone want Jason and Sam together. I believe you will lose viewers because of this. He needs to regain his memory, and remember everyone plus his love for Sam.
Jason and Sam forever (with glitches of course) Jason always forgives the women who screw him up he did with Sam he will with Liz….eventually. I am not all in with Jason as much as I love Billy Miller -the character is so different. I think of him as Jake actually. I think GH kills and brings back way too many characters-its not good writing.
If Jason and Liz end up together I am done with this soap. I’ve been watching 45 years and for the last year have had to make myself watch because of these storylines being drug out so long. Just tired of seeing Liz and Nickolas they are both pathetic and need to get what’s coming to them.
Jason &Sam should get back together.Just give them a little bit of time to try to get his memory back.lot of fans will be disappointed if you leave him with Liz.probably loose a lot of fans.
This is just ludicrous!! Liz is a big fat Liar! I don’t care if she fell in love with Jake before she knew he was really Jason. She had a bazillion opportunities to come clean and redeem herself but she chose to be selfish and keep Jason all to herself. The fragile angel must take a fall and that means Jason and Sam should be together. Why the hell bring Jason Morgan back from the dead just to disappoint all your fans?
At this point Lizard can keep this Jason because Sam deserves better than this! Liz is a lying, home wrecker, and there is NO redemption for her character at this point. Lets go over what she’s done: She was told the identity of the man she claims to love, kept it a secret, knowingly committed adultery with this man, lets not forget the 1st time they got it on was the Nurses Ball, she’s lied to Jason, his wife Sam, his mother Monica, his children, and EVERYONE who loves him. She neglects her back from the dead son so she can effectively maintain this lie. And she’s with held knowledge of Hayden’s shooting so she’s an accessory to attempted murder. Hmmm, she’s really redeemable. Smh, I’ll watch Y&R before I’d continue watching this travesty of writing!
Definitely Sam and Jason. That’s how is was. And will be. I can’t stand that liz chick . A liar and manipulater. Nothing good cones to people like that. For Real!!!!!!!!!
If Jason ends up with Liz, it will be so disheartening to know that I have sit through a storyline that lasted a year. But I will know that my time with General Hospital is over.
Jason and Sam
If Jason forgives Liz it’s time to find a new soap to watch!!!
I really hope Jason and Elizabeth can find their way back to each other. I love the two of them together. I have been waiting a long time for them to finally get a romantic storyline. I just sorry it entails Elizabeth lying. I wish she didn’t know who he was until the day they were suppose to get married. But I do hope they make it to the altar and tie the knot. Won’t mind a Liason baby girl either. This Jason is not for Sam, bring back GV as Lucky and let him be her new/old romantic interest.
Jason was never meant for Elizabeth, that’s why it has never worked out between them, Jason and Sam have chemistry and if Jason gets his memory back (hopefully) then Elizabeth can’t accept his way of life, they should just put her off the show!
It’s hard to find ONE character on GH that has not been redeemed…especially when you think back to some of the stuff Carly and Sam pulled. That’s how soaps work. And there are so many fans rooting for Liz and Jason to FINALLY have their chance together I don’t think GH has to worry about losing too many viewers if that is the route they take. If the writers are smart they will continue to focus on the chemistry Billy and Rebecca have- it’s off the charts.
They have no chemistry at all it looks forced to me…
Jason and Sam, if they keep Liz with him, I will stop watching.
I have stopped watching GH bcuz of storyline. If can’t put jason and sam bs k together I won’t even check in. I’m waiting for soul mates to be together again.
If I was the writers I would have it to where Jason is BaoTH Quatermaine and Morgan meaning. Jason goes back to working for Sonny and his wife but becomes more of a family person which would be the Quatermaine part. Because all the fans know Jason cannot be either Jason without some danger in his life. As for Lizabitch I think she could be redeemed with Lucky.
Sam, Jason an Danny he was taken away from they. Give Danny his family life mom an dad together. If they keep Jason and Liz together i will not be a great fan of GH anymore, Right now i don’t miss a episode. Team Jason & Sam
Sooooo for Liz & Jason! I’ve been watching GH for over 40 yrs. Liz really loves Jason. Look at the the others, so she kept it secret big deal! LOVE CONQUERS ALL!
Lulu and Johnny Z. Dante not hot, short and boring!
Sam and Jason.
Elizabeth made persona non grata!
Jason and Sam!!! They both took vows and just like he was willing to stick by Hayden when he thought she was his wife, he should be willing to do the same with Sam….another viewer lost if Jason ends up with lying Liz.
Always loved Liz n Jason.
Jason & Sam if he goes back to that lying self righteous backstabbing Liz I will stop watching General Hospital. This is ridiculous we reward someone for lying keeping a major secret? No writers you will lose viewers that I promise you, ratings are dropping already. Keep your viewers happy
I would like to see Sam and Jason together.
There needs to be some consequences for Liz
I hope Liz will be redeemed and Jason will forgive her. She was in love with him as Jake. Nothing has changed. They fell in love. Sam was his his past life. Liz is the love of his life now. I love the new JasonHe is more Q than Morgan. Jason Morgan was a killer with a heart but new Kadon is a refreshing change. Please keep him and with Liz! They deserve their turn at love which was always denied.
I agree. The writer can at least given them an honest chance. I do not recall fans clamoring for Jason to be the same Jason Quartermaine after AJ crashed the car while drunk giving him the brain injury in the first place, but yet the expect him to be Stone Cold, Jason Morgan hitman extradonaire, Sonny’s lackey and Carly’s problem solver, cleanup the mess caused by her to begin with bestie.
Keep Jason with Sam r a lot of people will stop watching including me
Reunited Jason an Sam cause there perfect for each other. Liz don’t deserve Jason she lies, if she loved him then she would of told him who he was an if Jason wanted to still be with her after she told him but she took the crooked way so no I love GH an a big fan so plzz put Jason Ana Sam together and sonny out of that wheelchair so he can Ava what’s she deserve plzz.
What, Sonny deserves to get a free pass with the bunch of BS he has pulled with no consequences? Have some more Kool-Aid while you sit in fantasy land.
If they keep Jason this way the show will fail. He is very boring and not exciting to watch.Jason became popular when he changed over to Jason Morgan
I think the new writers are doing great cleaning up the mess. I am a Jake and Liz fan. She was in love with before and fell in love again. It’s a soap, things change characters change its all good!
Jason and Liz belong together. They always have. Sam was always a con artist interloper. She has no substance as a character and never has. Jerking the truth from Jason pales in comparison to the things Carly has done and Sam is not some saint – she hired someone to rough up/scare Liz and her kids. “Jasam” fans either haven’t been watching the show long enough to understand either Liason’s longer history and Sam’s vacuousness or they apply double standards to characters they dislike.
*jerking=keeping
I have been watching GH since Laura was teenager and Rick and Leslie were on the show and married. Is that long enough to understand the characters? I always liked Liz until now. Believe it or not, like I am sure is true about many fans, not being a long-time fan or character hate is not why I want Jasen and Sam back together. The writers have tried over and over to put these two together and it has never worked. Liz can be redeemed as anyone can but it is not redemption if she gets the prize. She didn’t win Jason from Sam and his family, she stole him. Redemption can only happen if she loses the prize and more. Anything less, and GH loses me as a viewer. I am nearly already there. I am so disgusted with Liz now I can’t stand to see her simpering face and some days I “forget” to watch just because I know her storyline will be prominent.
If Liz gets Jason I’m so done with this show /: I have t watched in 3 weeks now cause Jason and Liz makes me sick I really hate Liz I hope she falls off a cliff I really can’t watch this show anymore if Jason stays with Liz -.- and this curse bs with Sam is really stupid I mean it’s really dumb wtf gh get over with this dumb story lines and get Sam back with Jason and Liz out of the way or you’re gonna lose so many fans I HATE LIZ and now I’m starting to hate this new Jason he’s such a whiny baby i wish he would just die again if this is going to be Jason
If you have forgive and take Liz back I am so done with the show he belongs with Sam. I am sick and tired being disppointed every epsoide. I live to see Sam and Carly rip het apart I love them working together against Nichols. If your not gonna send him back to Sam you should have never brought back Jason. They were each other love of there lives.
Shelly Altman and Jean Passante are messing the show up they have proven themselves to be awful writers and are giving us crap storylines and from the way it looks they are Liz fans -.- .. They need to get out of liz’s ass or I’m finished with this show for good
So let me understand this fans of JASAM have waited all this time just for Jason to be with Liz unfreaking believable!!!! You have wasted my time and DVR space. Why bring Jason back from the dead, to put him with Liz.Why not just bring Billy as some random dude for Liz. And to make Jason a Q Why!!!!!! Like another poster said I guess I either will find another soap or just give up all together. I can’t stomach Liz and Jason!!!!
Of course Liz can be redeemed. For those of you who seem to forget, both Carly and Sam have done some incredibly unforgivable things, have destroyed lives, and always get forgiven. There’s no reason Liz’s character shouldn’t have the same right.
As for the stupid “losing viewers” if Jason doesn’t end up with Sam, get real. This is a soap. No one ends up together forever. And a great many of us loved Liz and Jason, together and separately, far before Sam came on the scene. Some of those viewers have moved on, and are waiting to see if they should finally give GH another chance. So stop watching. There will be others to take your place.
We just don’t want him with Liz, she always lies to get her wayShe should just go back to Rick!
There have always been characters that lied and schemed. Thats what soaps used to be about. If everyone lived a happy life with no drama it would be boring. I’m actually enjoying the writing more lately. I want to see the liars and criminals pay in the end too…..but it keeps me watching. I would like to see less mob stuff like it used to be. It was really good back then.
Please have Sonny walk soon and get his little girl back.
I think that Liz deserves to lose Jason. Lets forget about Sam for a moment. Liz was keeping Jason away from Danny, his son. Thats not ok. Thats not love. Personally Liz giving all this attention to Jason she need to focus on Jake and what happened to him why he was away.
People love to say what Sam has done to Liz. Lets not forget that Liz was going to let Sam continue to believe that her baby was dead, even though she knows how that felt.
Sam and Liz have wronged each other multiply times. Do Liz deserves to be redeemed? Of course she do. But should she stay with Jason, NO.
Say what you want, but Jason always find his way back to Sam he always do. So feel how you want to feel, but we all know that Jason and Sam will end up together eventually.
What I dont understand is that, when hayden claimed that she was married to him. He felt he had obligations to her. But he find out he is actually married to Sam and he has not one obligation to her and danny.
We all know Jason will forgive Liz. But I honestly dont think they are soulmates. I think her soulmate is and always will be Lucky.
Looks like you writers are unfortunately Liz fans to but most of us die hard general hospital fans are not we don’t want Jason with Liz. We want him with his wife and family, we don’t want Liz redeemed as this isn’t why we don’t like her some us would like her to leave. We are sick of her character all together. She need to get what’s coming to her y’all have gave into the Liz fans long enough now it’s Sam’s fans time. That is if you want to keep fans by letting Liz get off with nothing shows us that your not capable of writing a good story so far it has been very long way over due and not fun to watch.
If they put him with Liz I will stop watching. Done! Hope they writers read these comments. Agree with who ever said they should have fired FV also when they got rid of RC.
