General Hospital (GH) spoilers suggest that actress Lindsay Hartley once again stepped into the role of Sam McCall during the first official episode of 2024 for the show. While she does a phenomenal job whenever she temporarily replaces actress Kelly Monaco as Sam, many fans are wondering when OG Sam McCall will return.
