General Hospital - MESSAGE BOARDS

I'm about to start watching GH for the first time at the end of this month (thanks to Jason Cook coming on) - so I'm hoping that someone has enough free time to bring me up to speed on this soap.
Just a basic rundown of what's currently going on, what I need to know, and maybe how everyone is related?
I use to watch Days, where seriously everyone is related somehow, so I know it can get messy on Daytime. But any information is better than none, so I'd really appreciate it!!

Thank you!!!

Welcome to GH! Your best bet is to make a little research trip over to Wikipedia...it's all there and it's excellent reading!

Welcome! Ok, here goes....
Mob, Hospital, more mob, "who's the daddy", more mob, love triange, more mob....

Yep - that about sums it up. It is a good show though....been a bit slow but it will pick up. I'm sure you will enjoy it - or at least parts of it.

Wikipedia would probably be the best place to look for character/storyline info.

To watch GH your should be familiar with these characters histories and their current on goings-

Jason Morgan
Elizabeth Webbter- shipper name Liason

Robin Scorpio
Patrick Drake- shipper name Scrubs

Damien Spinelli

Sam McCall
Lucky Spencer- shipper name LuSam

Luke Spencer
Tracy Quartermain
Nikolas Cassedine
Johnny Zaccara (spelling of last name is wrong)
Claudia Zaccara
Alexis Davis
Jasper Jacks (Jax)
Jerry Jacks
Sonny Corinthos
Carly Bensono Corinthos Jacks- not sure what her last name would be listed under.
Maxie Jones

These are the main players that I can remember right now or at least the ones that I pay any attention to.


Also advive- give Spinelli a chance at first when watching he is kind of overwhelming but really is a good character.

-LOL! GenHospitalFan's comment about what GH is about - totally right!
