General Hospital Spoilers: ‘Fiz’ Fizzled, ‘Friz’ Sizzled

There are a couple of things to consider-Elizabeth Baldwin’s (Rebecca Herbst) pairing with Michael Easton as Hamilton Finn hasn’t worked well for many fans.

‘Fiz’ fizzled, while ‘Friz’ sizzled, and fans bought Franco’s redemption story. However, Roger’s fans will take him in any role they can, and since being let go from GH he’s not had any projects according to IMDB.

He has, however, according to his Instagram, apparently kept in touch with Jeff Kober who’s a meditation guru in his spare time.

He thanked “Dr. Kober” in a recent Instagram story, however it’s expired and no longer available as of this writing.

GH Spoilers: How Would They Bring Franco Back?

AMP in the post

Bringing Franco back would be problematic, since Elizabeth herself found him dead with a gunshot in his art studio-although he wasn’t in a body bag when brought to GH.

Franco also had an inoperable malignant brain tumor at the time of his death, and that would have been difficult as well.

However, Days of Our Lives brought a long dead character back to life and cured his brain tumor, and the two shows frequently copy each other as well as swap actors!

Wally Kurth plays on both shows as Ned Quartermaine on GH and Justin Kiriakis on DOOL, and Charles Shaughnessy and Thaao Penghlis both played Victor Cassadine on GH.

General Hospital Spoilers: Maybe They Think It’s Franco But He’s An Unknown Twin?

Or perhaps they think it’s Franco when he appears, since they know he’s not Austin Gatlin-Holt-whose murder is still unsolved, another loose end for the writers to tie up.

No one would be surprised at Heather Webber (Alley Mills) having done what she does best, having given away yet another child in secret.

While supposedly twins come through the father’s side of the family, Drew Cain (Cameron Mathison) and Jason Morgan (Steve Burton) are Alan Quartermaine’s (Stuart Damon) only twins.

Susan Moore (Gail Ramsey) was Heather’s first cousin, so maybe Franco could have an identical twin, which would make Scott Baldwin (Kin Shriner) happy for him but furious at Heather!

Or, maybe the possible leaker got the character wrong and Roger’s coming back as another character-Todd Manning might fit in well at the Invader, or possibly Crimson!

    I absolutely hope Roger is coming back. He has been on soaps for decades and I miss him.

    It would be awesome, no matter how they explain it. The “ridiculous- ness” of it would be worth it to have Roger/Franco back. Or Todd Manning could work too. I’ll get crucified for saying this, but I could see Todd with Nina. A real power couple in the magazine and newspaper business.

    And ANYone would be better than Morgan.

    I have long admired Roger, and would love for him to come back to General Hospital!

    Bring Franco back! Plain and simple. Not a twin, not a triplet, not an amnesiac, not an FBI plant! Just a man who’s wife and kids need him back in their lives! Doesn’t matter how rediculas the story. Doesn’t matter the where or the why. Just bring him home.!

  • Cat
