Oh My Gosh, the rumor of Tom Pelphrey (ex-Jonathan, Guiding Light, CBS) coming to General Hospital is making my head spin and giving me goose bumps. I Tom Pelphrey. His Jonathan was one of my favorite characters on Guiding Light. Even though I couldn’t stand Tammy, Jonathan’s dead love of his life. They happened to be cousins and one time step siblings. I know, EWWWWWWWW. Soaps my friends, soaps. But when Tammy got the hit and run boot, Jonathan decided to leave Springfield, hence Tom Pelphrey leaving Guiding Light. I know he came back for a bit to continue the Lizzie connection. Jonathan and Lizzie have a daughter together which Jon took with him when he left.
Anyhoooooooooooooo, back to the rumor abound. It is being spread everywhere that GH is trying to get Tom to play a major role on GH. What big role? Remember Cousin Olivia? supposedly, she and Sonny slept together, years ago and produced a son. Olivia never told Sonny. Olivia’s arrival in Port Charles for Kate’s wedding will open a huge storyline. Tom is rumored to be playing Sonny and Olivia’s son. Read more after the jump…
BUT, GH is not commenting. Of course. There’s also speculations that GH insiders is putting this rumor out to scare Steve Burton from leaving. Yup, there are also rumors that Steve is not renewing his contract when it ends this Fall. GH is very good in sending out fillers to scare their actors from leaving. Same thing happened when Kelly Monaco’s contract was up. A search for a new woman character who happens to look like Sam went out. We all know how that turned out.
If and If oh God Please let this be a true rumor, Tom comes to GH, I couldn’t care less which character he’ll be playing. But with his caliber, hello 2-time Emmy winner, it better be a good one. I’ll even take this opportunity to say that maybe he could play the grown up version of Michael. He’d still be playing Sonny’s son, hehe. This way, Tom will be reunited with fellow GL-alum Laura Wright as her son. Laura Wright played Cassie on GL who happens to be Tammy’s mother.
It’s possible. Michael is in coma right now to make way for a grown up recast version by the end of this year. It’s almost that end of the year. Hey, you never know. Either way, it’s all about Sonny and his kids.

Sonny is long overdue for the arrival of a child he didn’t know about. Christina doesn’t count.
LOL, why not?
I really don’t want Steve Burton to leave. I will be so sad, they need to give him better storylines.
I’m thinking Olivia & Sonny’s son is – Spinelli! That would be hilarious.
I really don’t want Tom Pelphrey on GH. He deserves better. Frons and Guza will kill his talent, like they did with Rick Hearst. BUT, if this turns out to be true, then why not make him Johnny? I’m sorry but Brandon Barash just doesn’t cut it.
Sheesh, it’s a GL reunion over there. Who next, Kim Zimmer?
Brian, I think Kim wants to run GL..hehe.
