As a 55 year viewer ,bringing back past characters to me is so enjoyable for me. It is like seeing old friends. This is going to be super
❤❤❤❤❤❤😊
AGREED!!! So exciting! :)
This is the BEST news!!! Having Jonathan Jackson back and (recently) Steve Burton will definitely make GH even better!
Iam happy lucky is coming back
If the writers start writing decent storylines!
I wish they would talk more about working with Becky and the dynamic between Lucky and Elizabeth. Love his scenes and work with Genie. So sad that Tyler is gone. He and Tyler worked so well together.
Agree
Elizabeth and Lucky were the best matched.
RIP Tyler 😢
As someone that watched Jonathan in 1993 until he left the show, I am so glad to hear he is coming back.I am also glad to see Bradford and Steve back....some of the best of GH!
Nicolas, Emily, Lucky n Elizabeth were the BESTEST. I loved those years 💞
Wish they hadn't killed emily. The younger em was my fave but grew to love the older actress as well.
@@Nataku007 me to I really think the show lost so much heart when they killed Emm
Me too ..I was in h.s.. so good
Loved that time of GH!! Four Musketeers 💜
💯💯💯
I'm glad they waited for him to want to return instead of recasting. Lucky is a Legacy character himself on top of being the child of a Legacy couple. He's the best actor for the role.
I BET you are all like family in GH!!!! Miss Nicholas sooo much!! Tyler Christopher was amazing!! Rest in peace Tyler !! 🙏 🙏❤️❤️💔
I love this. He is such a humble man. The way he talks about acting you understand why he won 5 emmys. I am happy Lucky is returning ❤
So glad to have Steve, Jonathan, and Bradford back! Things are going to Heat up this summer.
❤
They should bring Ethan back too!!!!
I would love to see that.
@@myutube1990me too !
I remember the episode of Lulu's brothers Lucky, Nicolas & Nathan grabbing Dante in the bar to scare him so he wouldn't dare hurt their sister 😂
@@MamaUrban24that scene has always stayed with me, and it made me wish I had brothers who would do that for me, (i do have brothers, but they would never do that for any of their sisters😭). It's funny how they didn't agree on much as brothers, but when it came to defending lulu, they got together immediately. So cool!!
And lulu!
I can’t overstate how happy I am about this. I just hope they won’t drown the character in darkness and sorrow again. Jonathan Jackson is such a warm bright light, it would be great for Lucky to come back as a man who has grown up for real, and can offer something truly positive to the storylines.
Who ishe
The Soaps do one thing that no other medium can do, they tie the characters together through generations and they have families that have watched from great grandparents to current college students, and they remember sharing the stories for decades!
Wow, what an amazing interview with Jonathan! GH is already my favorite show, but with Lucky's return, it's taking it to a whole new level! So grateful to have him back on screen! Thanks so much Steve and Bradford ❤
Absolutely right ❤❤❤❤😊
What a soft spoken man….. so nice to see him! He hasn’t changed that much, but happy he’s coming back!! ❤❤❤
Met JJ and RH, very briefly, in '97(?). Obviously very young, but recall he came across as so mellow, zen...and as you note, soft spoken...way back then. Curious to see him back in PC after this long.
Jonathan as Lucky and Tyler as Nicolas was pure magic. Now's the time for Tony really needs to come back for at least a few episodes. Come on Tony give your fans closure.😢
The character Luke died
Yeah but no one really stays dead on a soap. 😁 I would absolutely love to see TG come back to GH. Have always been a fan of Luke! ❤
Tony lives in Amsterdam & he's made it clear his GH day's r over. Believe me, I would love him back. He looks quite different now. He was a good deal older than Laura/Genie. Maurice off camera on his podcast has really aged. No disrespect, we all age. But Sonny dyes his grey hair, Maurice doesn't. It's a great time to b a GH fan. Wake Lulu up 🙏 plz.
@@oceandreaming21 Yeah I know 😊
I guess what I want more is for GH to rectify his killing. I hate that the character was killed & I hate more that it was by a Cassadine. lol
I know it sounds crazy lol .. I told my sister I would settle for a phone call to Tracy showing/hearing that he's alive. TG was always one of my favorite actors & Luke.. one of my favorite Characters.
@MichelleNelson-my8lp I agree with your idea💡. It's a good one. Or maybe Lucky has news? Luke/Anthony WAS the show the minute he arrived!! The Luke & Laura story is legendary 🙌 No other show can top their Love story & adventures ❤️. Yes, Luck could certainly b alive & speak over the phone. Tracy & or Laura can go 'visit' him wherever he is supposed to b.
For me, soap actors are so underrated. They are incredible!!
Beyond excited to have Jonathan back on GH!! Love the Spencer family.
Glad to hear this GH actor . I never seen much TV as I was working a shift on second and I didn't own a recorder so I know who this new character
@@user-sr5hg8ko3gMe neither.I wasn't watching GH then except for his brief return but know him from Nashville.
He forgot to age. Been waiting for this ever since he was on Nashville! WOOTY WOOT! ❤❤❤ Omgosh, forgot Lucky was a cop. GH Ensemble is the best ever.
I forgot he was a cop too!
I'm with you...that man still looks 25 to 30 if that!!!!
@@katherinekerbow8344 100% looking good
Jonathan Jackson Returns! Is awesome news for EVERYONE!
I don’t agree he was an abusive controlling puke after the fire erased the good he did with for Lizabeth
Very awesome news, going back to be able to see Jonathan back with Jason and Bradford seems like old times and a big boost for GH!
It was so sad that most of the Spencer family are all gone. Luke, Bobby, LuLu in a Comma. Lucky off somewhere. So nice to see him back
Yeah. Lucky is the only one left. Unless you count Aiden since he is his biological child. Then Carly and her kids of course. Would love to see Lucky have some scenes with Carly here and there.
Lulu is in a coma.
MAybe Lulu will come out of her coma, when lucky walks i!!!!
Very true and nice to have him back ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
i hope so 😂😂❤❤❤
I loved hearing about the actors perspective of working different mediums. Thank you for sharing and welcome back Jonathan. As a life long (60 yo) GH fan, seeing you three come back is like having a family reunion.
My pleasure!
He played the best Lucky Spencer!! Will be great to see him back with Genie Francis again along with other GH greats like Steve Burton and Bradford Anderson!!!!!!!!🎉🎉❤❤🥰🥰
The 1 and Only Lucky
I love the character but only with Jonathan and loved watching him, Genie Francis, Sottyand Robin growing up on the show
Hey now, Jonathan is the ONLY Lucky Spencer!!!!
Exactly 💯
I love that Genie Francis wanted Jonathan back, love them two as on screen mom and son.
As a viewer of forty some years (babysitter got me hooked early), this is probably the coolest return ever. So cool. So happy Lucky is coming back. GH mixin' it up!!!!!
Lucky's son Aiden is going to be happy to see his Daddy! Welcome back!
Aiden is gonna be like who is this man 😂 😂 😂.
@@March80Aiden is the one boy who actually might not have issues with him since he visited him recently.
It’s like a dream having all my favorite actors coming back to GH! So lucky for all of us that are GH fans.😂❤
But sooo SAD that Tyler is gone!! He was the best actor that could ever be Nicolas!!
Where is the LOVE button??? This is the greatest news since Steve's return!!!❤
I'm excited!!! I was upset when Lucky left and then stopped watching for years after Jason and Lucky were both gone. And now with you both being back I'm soooo excited!!! Everything is now right with my world❤🤩😍
I'm 36, been watching since I was in diapers. Jonathan Jackson as Lucky Spencer was my first crush. All these years later, no regrets😂 excited to have him back for however long we get him. Hopefully they'll hire Emme back and we can have a few Spencers again.
SHUT THE FRONT DOOR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WE'VE ONLY BEEN WAITNG FOR 83 YEARS!!! I would have loved to have been surprised by your face just showing up on the credits but YAY!!!
That would be great. Just show up!
Shut the front door... You are my kind of people. ❤❤😘😘
Best comment of all!
The first and my favorite Lucky! So excited to have Jonathan Jackson back and not just for a short time! Yay! He heard all of his fan’s voices calling him back!
So happy having all 3 of you back on GH. Woo hoo. Let’s feel like the 90s GH again- great days ahead
Yes Yes Yes
Absolutely!
❤
We’ve been watching GH since college late 70s early 80s! We knew the storyline was gonna be great when Lucky first walked into the diner and met Ruby. What an exciting time on the show back then! This is great!!! I’m tearing up a little watching this!
So wonderful to have Jonathan back! By the way Carly is his first cousin she is a Spencer Bobbie's daughter. I sure hope they bring Emme back as Lulu.
And Dominic is still there. They were partners for a while, right? And brother-in-laws.
I just read this morning that Jonathan was coming back and then you release the scoop interview with him. BTW Laura has baby Ace. Maybe now it's time to get Julie Berman as Lulu and have a family reunion. I still remember when Jason gave his boxcar to Lucky. I am looking forward to see how the writers put Lucky in and the back story for the last 10 years. Steve and Bradford, awesome show and Jonathan, welcome back.
Holy shit, Lucky is coming back to GH. WOO-HOO! SO EXCITED!😅
Loved Nashville...one of my favorite shows...sooooo much talent❤❤️🎼🎙🎙👏👏👏
I love to see Steve smile and laugh! Not too much of that as Jason. 😅😊
The scene where Lucky confronts (the real) Nik when he discovered he'd slept with Elizabeth was Oscar worthy. I've watched that scene at least 10 times. Stellar performances by Jonathan and Tyler. 🏆🏆
First scene I thought of he's the best
He was not abusive!! He abused drugs but not an abuser to people!!! So happy he comes buck. I loved him on NASHVILLE!
Also loved him from day one on GH.
He definitely was, especially in his relationship to Liz. Lucky and Liz have always been toxic since his character came back in 2001.
He and Liz will never work out because she keeps trying to force herself to fit into his life and his ideals. And when she can't, things go very bad for both of them.
Yesss 💯 an Awesome show! It was Soo weird watching him on that after seeing him on GH 😁
@@melindabarham7060 I love the actor JJ and when he was younger before the fire I loved that kid he was amazing but after the fire well Lucky Spencer never came back from that fire he was forever changed not for the better
@@melindabarham7060 I want to see Nashville
So excited for Jonathan’s return. I can’t wait for his scenes with Genie and I sure hope we get scenes between Steve/JJ.
I doubt there would be scene with Jason and lucky unless it is about Jake but I would guess his scene will mostly be with genie and Becky
Glad Lucky is coming back they need to wake up Lulu from her coma and get him back with Liz !Welcome back Jonathan Jackson!
Yessss so happy for Lucky's return played by the amazing Jonathan Jackson🎉🎉🎉 Can't wait to see this scene with Elizabeth and the boys especially Aiden. Thank you for this awesome podcast❤❤
I am sad that they changed the Aiden actor though.
Great to see Luckie hanging with Jason and Spinelli!! Welcome back Johnathan!!
The last scenes with Tony Geary and Johnathan are seared into my heart - academy award level performers
Jonathan is so incredibly talented. How lucky we are to have him back!!
This GH fan right here🙋🏻♀️ is feeling very spoiled in the best way possible. First we had Steve’s return and now Jonathan‘s. GH just keeps getting better and better!🔥
By the way, does anyone remember Jonathan’s scenes with Rebecca, when Lucky found out she cheated with Nicholas? GOOD LORD Jonathan was soooo good..truly amazing work.😮 However, I would have to say my favorite scenes were the ones with Tony afterwards.👏🏻
I'd follow Jonathan anywhere! I'm so excited to see him coming back as Lucky. Even though it will be temporary, he truly is the only Lucky.
It's long term
WELCOME HOME JOHNATHON JACKS!!!! 💖💖💖💖
FINALLY…. We have been waiting so long…..
AWESOME, Jonathan back! Now if the writers get their head out and come up with good storylines again.
Yes absolutely! And soon they can bring Luke back.... to life. Love Luke ❤
Love all of these guys ❤ ❤❤❤
Thrilled to have Jonathan returning. I hope he gets to play some music on the show as well.
Yes Jonathan is coming back!! It's about time we Love Lucky 💗💗😍
Can't believe we are finally getting Lucky back!! Cant wait to see Lucky and Laura in scenes together!! What a great interview this was. Loved hearing Jonathons perspective on things. Loved hearing him talk about Tony and Genie. So excited for his return!!
I still recall when he 1st came on and rode that bike from the Triple L Diner where L&L were on the run at/he also went on the run back to Port Charles/with the pink Cadillac as the major scene in the return. Amazing and now all these years later he is back with Genie. Cannot wait.
Alright!! I can't wait until he has a reunion with Laura! Welcome back Lucky!!!
I would love to see him perform at the nurses ball
That's a great idea, I always love the Nurse's Ball, but miss Epitathy. She sang like an angel RIP Sonya
@@AnnaTrail-xp8pr absolutely right she did
They'd have to bring it back again. Last year was the first time since 2020 and we didn't get a nurses ball this year lol
Awesome to see Jackson can't wait until he come back as Lucky ❤❤❤
I can’t wait to see scenes with J J and Genie, Becky too.
Welcome home Jonathan 😍
We love Genie Francis!!!! One of my faves!!!!!!
The producers and the audience alike are truly lucky ( no pun intended) to have Jonathan Jackson back. He is such a talented actor. In my opinion, he's the best that General Hospital has ever had. I am only sad that Lucky will never be able to reunite with his brother Nikolas as played by Tyler Christopher. The two had a wonderful chemistry. Sure, they can find another actor to play Nikolas, but it'll never be the same.
I have adored Jonathan Jackson since he began as Lucky Spencer as a child! I AM THRILLED HE'S COMING BACK TO GH! HE'S INCREDIBLY INTELLIGENT, ARTICULATE, AND TALENTED ON EVERY LEVEL! 💖💖💖
I think it will be interesting regarding the Webber boys. Aiden is lucky’s bio kid, who probably may barely remembers him.
The there’s Jake
. Way back when Jason Basically gave Jake to lucky ; then Lucky split.
Wow that's big news! To see Jonathan back is going to be great, especially to see him on screen again. I am glad to see that this Podcast has various actors
on. Way to go Steve & Bradford.!😊😊
Holy hallelujah, he's coming back!! God bless him for gifting us with more Lucky. CANNOT WAIT!! ❤
Loving Lucky 🍀 @ Jonathan Back ❤ all the daddies are finally Home @ Lucky 🍀 sons
When I heard someone from the past is coming back, my first and only thought was Jonathan Jackson's coming back as Lucky. And, no other actor would come back as lucky.
I am completely thrilled. When they had the diner and we got to meet lucky for the first time I remember how excited I was way back then. And now I feel like it's the same way
WHAT?!?!? Lucky's coming back??!? FAN-FURKING-TASTIC!!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
GH is heating up!!! Love that JJ is back home!!! Maybe he’ll win more Emmys than his mentor Tony Geary.
I hope Lucky gets Nikolas out of jail, and sets his mother straight. It's crazy to me that the writers are pushing this Heather nonsense, while Nikolas is rotting in a cell for less. He should be raising Ace.
And I hope he builds a relationship with Aiden. And then Jake. I also wish Cameron was still on the show.
His return will be good for Elizabeth and will help bring more dimension to her character which was getting uninteresting.
I Hope Todd Manning Starr Manning John Mcbain Blair Cramer Also Return to GH And Introduce Victor Lord Jr. aka Trevor St. John To GH
@piscesmajor6510 did he adopt Cam? I can't remember the name of Cam bio dad
@@KP-ty8yeCameron bio dad was Zander Smith.
I loved this💛 Thank you SO much for
having JJ on! I just found out earlier
today about his GH return and I was
shocked but beyond stoked👏 I just
can't wait to see Lucky back in PC &
& reunite with Laura,Liz & everyone🙂
I remember when he started. I've been watching Johnathan since he was 10 years old. I'm so happy and glad he's coming back. Welcome back Lucy. I have been watching the General Hospital since I was 6 years old. I am 58. Have a good day
OMG, thanks Steve, Bradford & Daily Drama - so GREAT to see Jonathan & to know Lucky's coming back to GH 🎉
So freaking AWESOME 💃🏽
💋 Smooches
I hope we get to see Lucky with Aiden and be a good co parenting team with Liz. Aiden needs his dad in his life. And jake needs Jason in his. Would still love to see Liz and Jason together and be a family too.
Agree
Jason and Elizabeth make no sense. She never accepted his lifestyle.
@@pb4ugo19she actually has, jason wouldn't let her. Besides, they make much better sense than her and lucky getting back together. Liz and Lucky are toxic together. They make good friends and good co parents. But as a couple they are toxic. She forces herself to stay with him bc she feels like she owes him for what he did for her as a teen. And he can't accept her being anything other than that teen version of herself. They just don't make sense as a couple.
@@angien306 ya'll put Liz on some kind of a pedestal like she isn't toxic herself. The list is long. In fact, both Lucky and Jason are less toxic combined than her messy self.
@@pb4ugo19thats why i said they are BOTH toxic to each other. Lucky is no saint. Hes pretty toxic all by himself. But when hes with liz, he's worse. Liz is the most toxic when she's with lucky. She second guesses herself and always tries to placate to his wants and his ideals. They make liz into this flip flopping mess because she can't decide between what she wants with Jason, and her obligation to lucky bc of what he did for her as a teen. And lucky can never accept liz for who she is now and always wants her to always be the teen version of herself.
Super excited for Johnathon's return. YAAAAY!!!❤❤❤❤
What a wonderful show. Welcome back Johnathan. We've missed you.
Wow what an amazing guy. Such a great actor and just an knowledgeable person. It was so interesting to listen to him talk about what he's been doing. Hooray guys. Another fantastic show 👏 👌 👍 😀
I’m so glad to have Jonathan/Lucky back on the show! I grew up watching GH, and watched him and Steve grow up along with me. I can’t wait to see where his character goes. I loved his performance on Nashville too, it was one of my and my husband’s favorite shows.
JJ is of course the only Lucky I will even acknowledge but…like myself I was so happy to see Jonathan do a documentary or series on the Royal Russian family who were all martyred and it was so well done I was not surprised at what a wonderful job Jonathan and his family did on them. It’s so strange that their lives were all lived and done before I was born. I was born in 1961 so of course Jonathan could probably be my son’s age. My family has researched our lineage and traced to Queen Victorias line and some day I hope to see that family in heaven! I’m especially obsessed with little Alexi which I probably misspelled but thanks Jonathan for that documentary which was so beautifully done! My son is 39 and he became very interested in the Royal family when he saw JJ who is one of his favorite celebrities bringing the Martyred families story back to the fore front. My son is a Christian and I homeschooled my kids before it was popular so our break for lunch was of course to watch GH! My son is bipolar and Maurice Steve and Jonathan were his role models. My husband is a computer electronics engineer. He built the cell towers for US Cellular after training troops for twenty years and he does not like soaps but he will ask me occasionally how Spinelli is getting on with GH? Spinelli he relates to as my husband is a computer genius!
This is a lovely tribute and I found very interesting. Thank you.
These 3 men portrayed some of my all-time favorite characters. When each of them left I hit pause on gh. Especially when Steve Burton left. I ❤Jason Morgan. God bless youtube for being able to pick a character and a year and seeing their storyline. Liz and Lucky, Spinelli and Maxie, Jason and Sam forever
Oh, Lucky and Emily and the dogs. I loved watching them grow up on the show.
Aiden Spencer: Hold my root beer (how could they forget him?)
Welcome back Jonathan
Yes finally Jonathan Jackson is a great actor and love him as lucky too
It would really be nice to see Johnathan come back to the show, actually I can't wait,❤
Loved him on Nashville. Miss Tony as well. Tony Geary please come back!!! He was one of the stars of the show. ❤😎❤️😎
I can hardly wait to see Lucky back. I loved Lucky and Elizabeth.
Welcome Back Jonathan!
Oh my goodness just thinking about ALL the stories Lucky will tie into right now! Very exciting and super happy to see the reunion between all the cast members with Jonathan's return!❤❤❤
What a career so far. NINE Emmy nominations and FIVE wins!! Amazing!!
This will be another great reunion for GH. Seeing John York come back was so exciting but seeing Jonathan Jackson is like a blast from the past. I did enjoy him on Nashville.
Great to have Jonathan back. Looking forward to his return; the more vets the better. Maybe it'll start feeling Iike GH again. Now bring back Sean Kanan & bring AJ back to life. Interesting that there was no mention of working with Rebecca Herbst again or how Luckys return will affect Liz and and Aidan. No mention either of Jackie Zeman and Tyler Christopher's passing, Lucky's in-story aunt & brother. Must be strange to come back with two people he worked with and who were central characters in Lucky's life, gone, coupled with Tony's retirement.
Camp Nowhere is one of my all time fav movies from back in the day! So excited to have JJ back on GH!
Same!!!
@@merediths9698 I just realized its on Disney+ and put it on!
And the great news keeps on coming!! 🎆 It almost feels like Throwback Wednesday or something with so many older characters coming back. So looking forward to seeing Jonathan on GH!
I’m so happy Lucky is back in Port Charles. Can’t wait to see Jonathon’s scenes. As a mother, i look forward to Laura seeing Lucky for the first time in a long time. New storyline, Lucky as an adult. Should be fun.
CAMP NOWHERE. 😍😍😍 That was my favorite!
Welcome Home Jonathan, you’ve been missed, we viewers are so excited to see you back in Port Charles.❤
Happy to see these 3 talented actors! Will missed Steve on DOOL. But grateful to see him on GH !
I’ve started watching GH back when Luke rolled into town. But the area with Luke, Laura, Lucky were the best. I catch up with GH on YT. But now I am going to tune in every day. So excited for Jonathan’s/Lucky’s return!!! Yay!!
That is awesome!
OMG! This is the happiest I've been since Jason returned. I've been hoping & waiting for him to come back. I wanted Jonathan Jackson to come back.. not some less than stellar recast. Jonathan is The One, The Only.. Lucky Spencer. I can't wait to see Lucky & Laura 🥺. Laura needs at least one of her kids around. I really want Liz & Lucky to reunite. I always thought that Liz & Lucky were end game.. nobody has the kinda chemistry that Rebecca Herbst & Jonathan Jackson have. I loved their romance. How it started was unforgettable. He was her knight & shinning armor. I hated what the writers did to Liz & Lucky 😔. They should've been the next Luke & Laura. They're soul mates & they have unfinished business ❤. Liz & Lucky will never be done for good. Love the podcast Bradford & Steve. I love seeing Jonathan with you guys.. 3 of my favorite guys on GH. I love you guys ❤
Lizabeth don’t need that head case
You mean he hadn’t beat her down enough yet is that the unfinished business you speak of kick rocks
So excited to have Jonathan back as Lucky…WOOHOO…HOORAY🥰🤩❤️😍👍🏻👏🏻🥳
