General Hospital News: Steve Burton’s Unemployment Crisis

General Hospital news says that Steve Burton does have a reason to be worried about the future. Now that it doesn’t look like he’s going to be spending a lot of time on the set of Days of Our Lives, a lot of fans can’t help but wonder what’s next for the handsome actor.

Will he make the jump back to General Hospital? That’s what a lot of daytime television fans want to know. Keep reading below for everything you need to know.

General Hospital News: Steve Burton’s Unemployment Crisis

There’s a lot of speculation that fans won’t be seeing much of Steve Burton in the coming weeks ahead. He was brought on to Days of Our Lives as his old character, Harris Michaels.

However, the soap’s spin-off show Beyond Days has now ended and it looks like Harris’ storyline with Ava is coming to a close as well. That’s why a lot of people think that this might be the end of the road for Steve, or at least in Salem.

Of course, there’s always the possibility that Steve might make the move back to General Hospital to reprise his role as Jason Morgan. Soap opera fans would go absolutely nuts if that were to happen.

But, as many viewers do know, Steve was fired back in 2021 when he refused to comply with the ABC network’s mandatory vaccine mandate. Both he and his former co-star Ingo Rademacher were let go from the soap.

General Hospital News: What’s Next For Steve Burton?

Now, whether or not General Hospital would be willing to bring Steve back remains to be seen, but there has been a lot of chatter about Jason reuniting with Sam McCall again. If that were to happen, there’s no doubt that General Hospital fans would be tuning in each day for all of the action.

So far Steve himself has made no comments about his possible return to the daytime television world, but at the same time, his unemployment crisis does have a lot of fans concerned about his future. Watch this space.

    Considering that the vaccine mandates were proven to be a negative thing (look at what they have proven about its side effects and resulting fatalities!) PLUS being completely outrageous when there were exceptions (including religious ones) that were refused to be considered, GH would be wise to give its fans what they have been clamoring for over the course of several years now. Disney/ABC has already hinted they want “out of the soap business” so GH should be doing everything in its power to keep the fans it has and try to lure back the ones it lost due to the firing of Steve and Ingo.

      Seriously? The vaccines saved lives, was demonized when that orange hair lunatic pretended it didnt exist.

      If Steve does come back I HOPE it will be a story line with Sam and not back to Carly. I don’t care for the new Sam but with Steve she was fun and more enjoyable to watch. Dante does not fit with her. Steve could also find a new romance, maybe with Lois?

      • Linda

        Totally agree. Please don’t put Steve With Carly. Steve belongs with Sam. Dante belongs with LuLu.

    I stopped watching GH when Steve Burton left. I wouldlove to start watching again if Steve returns!

    Steve Burton belongs on GH period. Several actors developed Covid after Steve left & they were vaccinated. Steve never got it.

    GH is extremely boring. The actors are boring. It desperately needs Steve Burton. Every scene he’s in is better than what’s going on now.
