I wish they had a channel that would play these old shows again. 📺 bring them back.
^^ yeah that wouLd be great: imho gh was at the very best from 1984/1985 up to when the idiot powers that were 'kiLLed' off robert scorpio and anna devane - 2 of my aLL time favorite characters Ever on gh .
They once had Soapnet
I want to start at the part when Laura came - the whole David Hamilton bit
Any scenes with Lila were always amazing especially when she was in a scene with Edward ❤❤
@natalieschannel7675
I wish they stiLL had soapnet .
how do we get them to bring it back ?
^ pLease respond with suggestion(s) about this .
My mother is 102 years old. Due to disability we both watched every episode of General Hospital since the very first show. So many memories. Thank you for posting this.
I REMEMBER RUBY!! SHE WAS A LOVING WOMEN IN LIFE!!
bigga: why are you yeLLing/shouting/screaming here ?
^ you're doing this by using aLL capitaL Letters in your posting .
We have Gloria Monte to thank for the greatest love story of all time. She is the reason GH came back to life in the late 1970’s & early 1980’s.
^ it's monty not monte .
@@joannetaylor8635 I apologize for the mistake. I wasn’t trying to be disrespectful
@the_Real_Grammy_of_6 no probLem (np) .
btw my favorite characters Ever on gh are/were robert scorpio, anna devane/devane scorpio/devane Lavery/devane scorpio a 2nd time after she re married robert scorpio on the earLy 1990s .
aLso robert's and anna's daughter robin (pLayed by kimberLy mccuLLough) I watched robin
(and kimberLy) grow up on gh .
I've watched gh since 5th ? or 6th grade: when one of my 6 oLder sisters toLd me stories that were happening on gh Years ago .
GH was amazing in 1984 with frisco and felicia
Wow! Admit to being sad right now. I watched from the 80s until around 2006? Not sure why I stopped. Some of my fondest memories were with Lucy, Kevin, Mac, Felicia and Ned Q. Of course, Luke, Laura and Sonny C... and who didn't love Ruby! Norma Connolly :( time has passed indeed.
Ned was an Ashton lol
@@michellegallentine2629 ned was a quarter Maine as well.
I like your list of characters well said...❤😊
Thank You, for share this video clip of General Hospital show 56 years wow its longest time. I know my mom mother watch show, I start in 1980. Time hard watch was in high school. Until 1983. I saw some of actors moved over to Day of our Lives , some was on Tv show Passion soap opera. Lots things has changed though years. Love see dvd collection though beginning up to date show. Only remember was school bus accident in 1980. Lots great actors. Though years. Luke and Laura. Back then. And Rick Springfield. Lots great actors.
**gasp** there were people over *55* years old on this show!!! You don't see that too often these days. PS -- I recognize SOOO many names/faces from other tv shows, films. BUCKETS of talent here.
I'm 52 and have been watching GH wth my two cousins since 8th. We all remember Nurse Brewer!
I remember watching this show in the very early 60's! My Mom loved this show! I'm not a soap fan!, but i'll admit my favorites were Dr. Steve Hardy & Nurse Jessie Brewer! Can't belive how many have passed & how many died kinda young!
The actress who play mrs quartermain LiLa was such a beautiful lady . She was the most beautiful bolder lady I’ve ever seen and so graceful
she played Lila Quartermaine and her real name was Ann Lee
Correction her name was Anna Lee. And she was a well known actress long before general hospital
What a lovely thing to do. It was a joy to see all these old familiar faces. Thank you so much!
Oh how I miss Dear sweet Lila Quartermaine and Ruby and Amy Vining
It's great to pay tribute to the many hard working actors & actresses that have made daytime acting great. Especially now with daytime acting going through a severe decline!
Tears to my eyes 😪
when did gLoria monte die ?
and what was the cause of her death ??
Rest In Peace Anna Lee/Lila Quartermaine.
Happy 56th Anniversary General Hospital! April 1, 1963
Such a beautiful and moving tribute to all those that passed. May they RIP🌷
Rest In Peace Dr. Steve Hardy and Nurse Jessie Brewer.
Some one told me that Leslie Charleston had breast cancer for real not to be in sensitive but wastrue?
@@marymackey5372 I think she did
I agree I watched the show on and off since I was a child since it was on for 30 minutes instead of an hour and I remember so many of these fine actors.
Chris Mc Evoy DR. Steve hardy was nice looking when he was younger..
@@marymackey5372 its sadly true
Thank you so much. This was like walking through my childhood. May all my old friends rest in peace!
It sad to see a generation of great actors gone and soap opera are not the same anywhere,

I am blown away! I grew up, racing home just to catch the last 15 minutes of the show. we did not have DVR, or anything. I think Amy Vining was the hardest. She was a staple on the show. Lila was hard but I saw all that. It was the ones you did not know that had past was hard. God Bless them all. What a joy they they brought all the fans, it always felt like family. I really hope they continue to keep this show thriving. Sonny was always my man crush! Please keep it going GH! Much love
Thanks for the memories grew up watching this soap opra
i love this show i've watched it for many years may all the actors and actresses who have died RIP
This is so endearing. I had to watch twice and maybe I'll watch a third time. These actors shaped my life by touching my life through the soaps. I am forever blessed for knowing them. Thank You! ❤
Beautiful tribute. So many of these marvelous actors I never realized had passed and recognized them from other shows. God bless you for sharing. Thanks for the memories.🌺
I loved this! Thank you so much. This made me cry. I remember all these people. RIP everyone.
I LOVED ANNA LEE>> SHE WAS SOO SWEET AND KIND AND LOVING IN HER LIFE!! R.I.P. ANNA!! 😇💕🕊🙏😪🎉🤧
She was a favorite. I thought Anna Lee was so beautiful & I hoped to age as gracefully as she.

Omg,I can't believe of how many people have passed, May the Lord keep them in his hands, RIP 💐
Wow going down memory lane for sure. Amazing that some were born in 1898 & 1899. Thank you so much for this!❤
I loved Mother Quartermaine! She was everything! 😍😍😍
Mother Quartermaine? Only Lucy Coe called her that
@@radrobd123 and your point?
To all the great actors deceased or living thanks for making General hospital such a great show and thanks for the memories.
I can't believe how many actors and actresses played a role on GH over the years. It's such a nice tribute that includes those who played supporting roles, writers and producers. RIP 🌹🌸
Very nice tribute. May all of them RIP
Rest In Peace Dame Elizabeth Taylor/Helena Cassadine.
OMG, I can't help but cry.
May all of these beloved soap stars rest in Eternal Peace very well presented video. GH you did an excellent job very touching Thank You for Sharing
Those was the good old days,rip,to all of them.
Thank you for this. I had forgotten many of the wonderful people who contributed to this enduring show. I watched the anniversary show today and loved all the history! Congratulations to General Hospital and ABC!
That was lovely and really took me down memory lane. Thank you
"What I liked about this was it
showed not just the contract players
it also features the sort term players
as well,
I finally found out the names of the
actors who played
Mom and Pop Calhoun....
this was great,thanks." -😮🇱🇷🇬🇧🇪🇪.
But they forgot O'Reilly from Scorpio an Luke looking for the ice princess
Thank you for all the memories! I have been a fan for 53 years! I love this 😘❤️
Now I feel old! I remember more than half of those stars. TY for the upload.
We are like fine wine.. better with age
I only started watching GH about 5 years ago. What a loving and thoughtful tribute!
Happy 56 anniversary general hospital let's keep it going for another 100 years to come 🥂
3 Edward Quartermaines & they were all great!!!
Really 4. David Lewis, LesTremayne, John Ingram, and Jed Allen.
@@kathleencollins5531 Jed Allen was awful as Edward
My three favorites Nurse Jessie Lilla Quartmaine and Aunt Ruby
I really only watched in the 80's with the Luke&Laura then Demi Moore story. So many wonderful actors that I remember from being on other soaps too. And Ron Howard's dad was on there!! Didn't know he passed. R.I.P to them all🌷
Anna Lee was great at being Lila I miss her
bobby laguardia Anna Lee was a beautiful, and talented actress who appeared in a few classic movies. What elegance
Great film actress from the golden era. GH got some good seasoned stage actors, such as George E Carey. Historic show.
Such a wonderful tribute to amazing people ❤
God Bless all the actors, behind the scenes crew and the creators for making this show what it is! Entertainment for all!!!
I remember all these stars growing up and watching general hospital📺 with my mom. Love you mom. Miss you💖
Wow...thanks for this. My aunt used to babysit me, so I remember the Dr Steve Hardy and Nurse Jessie Brewer days. When I got older, I watched during the time of Luke and Laura. I have not watched the last 20 years or so. RIP to all those who have come and gone.
Rest In Peace Gail Baldwin/Susan Brown.
General Hospital Had Some Of The Oldest People In Daytime TV.
They weren't all older when they were on the show
Wow!!this is awesome, started watching with grandma in 1963,seeing all the people who were there is like walking down memory lane, where is Phil, Jessie Brewer husband, I think it was played by
Roy Thinnes
Very Nice tribute.
General Hospital Family
Wow 😮 People I’ve seen before and never knew they passed!!! Thank you sooo much for taking the time to share this video with us. I am grateful and to all these guys RIP I love you all 😭😭💯❤️🙏🏽❤️
A massive thank you!
You did a very impressive job compiling all this information!
I had forgotten so many of the actors and actresses that appeared on the show.
Rest In Peace!
I met Emily McLaughlin at a Soap Opera event. I was 16 years old. She was sitting next to Deidra Hall (from Days of Our Lives). It was like a “Meet and Greet”. Both were very nice. But Emily has always stood out in my mind, all of these years (I’m now 59 years old). She actually seemed to be happy to be there. She didn’t rush anyone away just to get to the next person. I could tell that she really appreciated every one of her fans. I was able to ask her a few questions. I asked her how long she had been on the show - this was in 1981. I told her that I remember her being on the show when I was very little because my mom watched GH back then. I’m sorry to say that I don’t remember her answer. But she was just so sweet. She looked me in the eyes when I was talking to her. I don’t remember many things about that time in my life or other years. But I’ve never forgotten her courtesy towards, not only me, but every fan that she talked to. I was very saddened when I heard that she had died.
Wow ! Thank you for the walk down memory Lane !
Holy sh*t. Had NO IDEA there were so many of them that passed on. Great job.
Esther Roll Was On General Hospital And One Life To Live. I Think She Was On One Life To Live First, Before Good Times & Then General Hospital During The 80's.
Allen Collins I don’t remember Ms. Rolle on any soaps. Do you know what characters she played?
@@jenbranker4775 I Can't Find Who She Played On General Hospital, But On One Life To Live, She Played Sadie Gray. I Think She Was The Wife Of Ed Hall(AL Freeman Jr). They Were A Married Couple In A Movie Down In The Delta Too. Wesley Snipes Was Their Son; Alfre Woodard Was Their Niece & Mary Alice Was Al Freeman's Sister & Alfre's Mother.
Allen Collins I got it now lol, Lilian Hellman I think played Sadie Grey. She played the daughter of Carla Grey, who was married to Ed Hall, a police detective. Haven’t found out any information on Esther Rolle on General Hospital.
That was Beautiful, I loved the tribute ❤️, thank you
Wow! I am in my early 40s and this was and still is my favorite soap opera. I'd forgotten some of the characters that made the show great. RIP to all these wonderful men and women!!!
I watched from the early 70s through about 2002 and I remember so many of these. ❤️
I watched from the beginning of Luke and Laura until 1993.❤😢
They should always make this segment part of the anniversary special. Beautiful. As a fan the show should have stopped at 50
Who can tell it may go on for decades still.
Oh Edward Q./ John Ingle, when I started watching GH in 97 I really liked his character even though he could be really mean and rude. He was one of a kind. Great actor 🤓
Wow! All the greats
This must've taken you forever to compile. Great work
Rest In Peace Peter Hansen/Lee Baldwin.
Rest In Peace Susan Brown/Dr. Gail Baldwin.
Wow! R.I.P. all those astonishing actors & writers that were part of GH
WOW!!!!!
just,Beautiful!!!!
Bravo!!Awesome job!!
such,memorable clips!!
I was a little teary-eyed
Thank you,again:)
Well done and well appreciated:)
Thank you SO much for this lovely tribute. I have watched GH since the beginning. Back then it was in Black and White and the sets always seemed so dark. So many memories ❤️
HeartVisions, You Look Young. Are You 60 Yet.
Allen Collins Thank you! Yes, I’m currently 68. I’ve been blessed to have aged well so far. I think it must be in the genes. I have 7 sisters and we all look young for our age.
Quite a plethora of esteemed actors and actresses!!! I stopped watching in the 80s, so I had no idea of the cameos or bit parts except for Richard Simmons.
All of u are well missed
Thank you I had forgotten many had died. Alot of writers beautiful tribute.
Never knew Commissioner Gordon, Bosley, Mr. Spock and the Professor were on the show
What an awesome tribute to all that had gone on to the hither yon. May they all RIP.
Memories, I watch general hospital since the 70's i was a teen by then Dr. Hardy was my fave doc.
Wow what memories!!!
Gone but not forgotten. The cast, writers, etc are why this soap has been my favorite for many years. Yes, there have been years that GH seemed to have lost its way but I still watch.
What a sweet tribute
Wow,had no idea that my favorite daytime character "SALLY SPECTRA " (Darlene Conley)was also on General Hospital!!!
Same here. I knew she was on All my children and young and the restless
Good-bye to you all and thank you.
WOW, fantastic tribute, thanks so much for this! Congrats to GH and family!!
Beautiful...Thank you!
Awesome tribute so the great stars we lost & miss so much. Thanks for sharing
I loved Lila Quartermaine. She acted so sweet but she could really get one over on Edward.
