‘General Hospital’ Celebrates Monica Quartermaine and Its 62nd Anniversary (EXCLUSIVE)
“General Hospital” is commemorating its 62nd anniversary and the opening of the Dr. Monica Quartermaine Cardiac Wing.
Though the death of Leslie Charleson — who played Monica since 1977, and died in January — will be addressed on the show at a later time, her character’s contributions as a doctor will be honored during Tuesday’s episode. Throughout the April 1 episode, there’s also a nod to the heart to the relationships in Port Charles — including the one between Sonny (Maurice Benard) and Laura (Genie Francis), as seen in the exclusive clip below — to those who have come through the hospital doors, both as staff and as patients, that have left behind loved ones. Valentini feels it’s important to honor and acknowledge the characters (and the actors who’ve played them) like Monica (Charleson), Alan (Stuart Damon), Bobbie (Jackie Zeman), Epiphany (Sonya Eddy) and others.
