Au Revoir, PJ Pascal

General Hospital Snarkcast - Recorded Monday, June 8, 2026 David is filming in Toronto (location: undisclosed, vibe: very disclosed), and he has Opinions. Big ones. This week he delivers a full ranking of all five soaps currently on the air, and the verdict is: General Hospital is still the champ, Young and Restless is LinkedIn the Series, Days is now a chore, Beyond the Gates has potential and terrible sets, and Bold and Beautiful exists. We also mourn the departure of writer Ryan Kwan, who apparently fixed GH and is now being sent to fix Days. Godspeed.On the actual Port Charles front: Pascal gets driven away by Sonny's very attractive goon, Cullum is creeping everyone out beautifully, Joss is out-actioning Anna in the basement (not a sentence we expected to type), and Hotel Catacombs has opened for business with a second resident. Obrecht clocks Willow in approximately two seconds flat. Willow is Mama’s character of the week for being completely unhinged and nailing it. Cullum is David's character of the week for making everyone nervous every time he walks into a room. Chase is the word of the week, apparently. And yes, he is about to become a congressional chief of staff. Just go with it.Also: Scout has been SORASed to sixteen, Avery's fate is unclear, and Carly and Valentin still take our breath away.Book rec from David: Love in the Afternoon, a brand new essay collection about the art of soap opera. Paperback only. Get it.

All the Plots Are Built on Nonsense

General Hospital Snarkcast - Recorded Tuesday, June 2, 2026 Nonsense on Parade: Car Crashes, Secret Med Schools & Dark Michael Rises Welcome back to Snarkcast, where we watch General Hospital so your blood pressure doesn't have to spike alone. This week, Mama Snark survived a mysterious highway incident of disputed origin, David mixed up time zones (again), and somehow, we still managed to break down what can only be described as a full week of gorgeous, committed, top-shelf nonsense. On the docket: Dark Michael makes his long-awaited return and immediately throws Brooklyn under a bus (metaphorically, unlike certain unnamed drivers on Route 91). Willow finally says what she means. Drew is in a chair, and we almost feel bad about it. Nina has a crisis of conscience in what appears to have been a secret invisible episode none of us were invited to watch. And Christina, a woman who has never finished college, got into UCLA Medical School. We have questions. Plus: Maxwell Caulfield shows up at a New York art gallery that looks suspiciously like the Port Charles one, Suzanne discovers her book boyfriend is real and extremely in flagrante, and we introduce our newest detective, Joe Fitzpatrick, who has a lot of opinions and not a lot of storyline yet. Character of the Week are revealed. The Trina Tiny Tantrum of the Week returns. And we ask the real question: how many people have actually quit watching General Hospital versus how many are just peeking around the corner through the Snark? Like, subscribe, leave a comment, and tell your GH fans all about us.

Pikeman: One Story to Rule Them All

General Hospital Snarkcast - Recorded Monday, May 25, 2026 This week on Snarkcast, Nina is once again making choices. Are they good choices? Absolutely not. Are they extremely fun to watch unravel in real time? You bet your sharps container they are. We dig into her latest "frantic but somehow also scheming" energy and try to figure out whether she has a plan or is just vibing her way toward catastrophe (our money is on the latter). She earns one of our coveted Character of the Week slots, less for good behavior and more for sheer commitment to the chaos.Speaking of which, can we talk about the accident? Because the show would very much like us to believe it's a Major Event with Lasting Consequences, and we are here to report that it is, in fact, nothing. Nothing! A whole lot of dramatic music and worried faces for an incident that barely registers. We are so over it, and we have thoughts about why GH keeps insisting we care.Meanwhile, Curtis has feelings, and he would like everyone in Port Charles to know about them. He is hellbent on creating something out of nothing, and more specifically, blaming it on Isaiah. Why is he being so stupid? The jury is out. The jury may never come back.Our other Character of the Week is Alexis, because when is she not a delight? We get into why she keeps stealing every scene she's dropped into and why we'd happily watch an entire spinoff that's just her, Ava, and Ric reacting to other people's bad decisions.And then there's Pikeman. Oh, Pikeman. This storyline keeps growing and absorbing characters like a bad sponge, soaking up half the cast whether they asked for it or not. We try to map out who's been pulled into its orbit this week and whether anyone will make it out with their dignity intact (spoiler: no).Plus, we marvel at GH's refusal to let a single storyline sit still for more than four minutes, applaud the writers for tangling all the subplots into one glorious knot, and get into your best theories from the group chat. Pour something, grab your knitting, and join us for the nonsense.The link to the great comments about Jordan and her scarf: https://www.facebook.com/GHSnark/posts/pfbid02wjxtHfvnWSMT5S6VqLs19Ezkhqoj8xMEjGYosEpHf1dX3aHVfGViu1Dos53Q4Lfql?__tn__=%2CO*FWHERE YOU CAN FIND US: Follow General Hospital Snark on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ghsnark Find us on Substack where we do long-form articles: https://ghsnark.substack.com/ GHSnark Patron Information: https://www.patreon.com/generalhospitalsnark Follow General Hospital Snark on Twitter (if you're still there...): @GHSnarky (we mainly do reposts.

Sonny Aims and Curtis Freaks Out

General Hospital Snarkcast - Recorded Monday, May 18, 2026 Curtis is STILL talking about his one-car accident, because apparently driving into a tree is the kind of trauma that requires a multi-episode investigation and a conveniently chosen scapegoat. Enter Isaiah, who has the great misfortune of being with Curtis' ex-wife, which in Port Charles math means he's obviously responsible for a solo crash he had nothing to do with. Curtis has decided Isaiah is the problem, and any resemblance to "I'm jealous and processing poorly" is purely coincidental. Meanwhile, Pikeman 2026 continues its valiant quest to become the storyline that ate General Hospital. There are now so many segments, subplots, and shadowy operatives involved that we're considering a flowchart, a glossary, and possibly a support group. If you can explain who's doing what to whom and why, please write in. Brook Lynn is once again insisting that Trina is going to be a pop star, as if pop stardom is something you can manifest by saying it confidently three times in the Quartermaine library. Just add water and behold: Instant Ramen Pop-Star, now with extra delusion. In exciting news, Elizabeth is a character again! She has lines! She has purpose! She appears to be the key to figuring out what happened to Jack, and we are absolutely here for Liz being plot-relevant instead of just hovering in the background of the nurses' station. Plus, our Characters of the Week, this week's Soap Recommendation, and of course, Text Messages from Wicked Stepmother, because Mama Snark's group chat continues to be a national treasure.

Jack's No Good, Very Bad Week

General Hospital Snarkcast - Recorded Monday, May 11, 2026 Mama Snark and Snark, Jr. are back, and this week's General Hospital handed them a feast of material to tear into. The showdown of the century kicks off the episode: Carly, Jack, and Valentin all in a room together, with Jack sweating through his shirt and turning every shade of red while Carly sits there smug as a cat in a sunbeam and Valentin casually holds a gun like it's the latest accessory from Cartier. The duo breaks down every glorious second, from Jack's near-heart-attack energy to Carly's power move of smugging it up. It's the kind of scene that reminds you why you put up with this show for decades. From there, Mama Snark and Snark, Jr. tackle Nina's full descent into chaos. Her Thursday-to-Friday meltdown was unexpected, unhinged, and frankly the most interesting thing she's done in months. Then to give Jack the needle? Who boy! The pair debate whether this is character growth, a writers' room sugar crash, or just Nina being Nina with the volume turned all the way up. They also pull out the whiteboard for the plot pie chart, mapping out how Sidwell, Pikeman, and roughly seventeen other storylines are all somehow connected. Spoiler: it's a lot of pie. Then there's Dante and Elizabeth, who appear to have finally graduated from the audition phase into actual relationship territory. Mama Snark has thoughts. Snark, Jr. has thoughts. We also want to hear your thoughts in the comments. And, as a special treat, we have our Special Correspondent, Marlena De LaCroix, sharing stories from the past. Pour something strong, and join the snark.
