General Hospital’s Steve Burton Sparked Controvery By Doing This

General Hospital’s Steve Burton’s return as Jason Morgan sparked controversy among fans this past year, but not for the reason you might think.

General Hospital’s Steve Burton Sparked Controvery By Doing This

Apparently, a lot of fans were upset that Steve was asked to come back to the show while his former co-star Ingo Rademacher has been left in the dust. 

As many General Hospital fans can recall, both Steve and Ingo were let go from the ABC network back in 2021 after they both refused to comply with the vaccine mandate at the time. 

Ingo went on to sue ABC while Steve quietly found work over at Days of Our Lives on the Peacock network. Still, a lot of people think that Ingo should be given the same opportunity as Steve to come back to the show.

Of course, many General Hospital fans have had a lot to say about the matter on social media. Some have even commented with, “I still can’t support this show or network until they apologize to Ingo and everyone else they’ve wronged.

Another critic said, “Right or wrong, the network was following CDC guidelines at the time. Steve chose to stay on good terms, and made it clear he wanted to come back. Ingo went a different route and chose to sue the network. I miss him too, but he burned his own bridges.”

General Hospital Fans Believed Ingo Rademacher Should Have Been Given a Chance Too

And then there was this comment as well: “Maybe just maybe Steve and the powers at be at the show told him if the mandate was lifted he could come back. No matter how long it took.”

“As far as Ingo maybe they tried that with him and he decided to instead of listening to them went on a suing spree which ultimately cost him his chance to be able to return.”

General Hospital airs weekdays on the ABC network. Check your local listings for times.
