General Hospital Spoilers – Sonny Corinthos Has A Huge Following

General Hospital’s Sonny, and of course Carly, is probably the biggest fan base that G.H. has, followed closely by Jasam (Jason Morgan and Sam McCall) fans. These two fan bases overlap because the fans who love the mob mostly love these four workings together.

Of course, General Hospital fans of the mob would accept Jason running things but it would not be the same without Sonny in town. Some Sonny fans cannot wait until he comes back as the mobster fans remember and runs Cyrus out of town or kills him. Port Charles and Sonny simply go hand in hand, they have for years.

General hospital’s Maurice Benard started out as Nico Kelly on All My Children in 1987 and has been acting ever since.

Benard continues to be an advocate for those who suffer from the disorder that almost cost him his career. When and if Benard retires, GH will not be the same.

In my spare time, I enjoy reading as well as writing fan fiction. General Hospital’s Sam and Jason are one of my favorite couples of all time.
