General Hospital (GH) spoilers reveal that Lulu Spencer’s (Emme Rylan) exit could free up some airtime and money. That’s the idea behind cast cuts like the ones the show’s been making. Now that Lulu is in a coma, she’ll be out of the picture for the foreseeable future.
Of course, GH recently cut Dustin Phillips (Mark Lawson) and Dev Cerci aka “Dev Corbin” (Ashton Arbab) as well. Julian Jerome’s (William deVry) exit is also on the horizon, so General Hospital may have some extra funds and room for comebacks.
With that in mind, we can think of one return that’d be great right about now. Should Lucky Spencer (Jonathan Jackson) come back to Port Charles? Lulu may not be dead, but she’ll still be gone in the months or perhaps even years ahead.
Laura Collins (Genie Francis) is a mess over the explosion outcome and wishes she could’ve done more to help her daughter. What better time for Laura’s son to come back and support his family? Since Laura is losing one child on canvas, it’s only fair for her to gain another!
Once Lucky gets updates on Lulu’s fate, it’d make sense for him to visit PC and be there for Laura. Lucky also needs a chance to catch up with Nikolas Cassadine (Marcus Coloma), who’s returned from the “dead” while Lucky’s been away.
Even if Jackson isn’t willing to reprise the role for a long-term stint, a short guest arc would be better than nothing. Greg Vaughan (ex-Lucky Spencer) is another option to consider since he’s off Days of Our Lives and might be willing to make a brief comeback.
However, many fans would be willing to accept a brand-new actor in the role at this point. It might be nice to have a clean-slate Lucky, especially since he’d be more likely to become permanent. Lucky is a character who’s needed in PC – now more than ever since Lulu’s headed for the exit door.
Elizabeth Baldwin (Rebecca Herbst) is currently committed to Franco Baldwin (Roger Howarth), but what happens if he doesn’t survive his tumor? Even if Franco survives this crisis as we expect him to, that doesn’t mean Liz is locked into a “Friz” future forever.
There are definitely some Lucky and Liz shippers that will always hold out hope for a reunion.
Regardless, the time seems right for Lucky to return and reconnect with his loved ones. Would you like to see Lucky back on GH in some form? As other news comes in, we’ll keep you posted.
