    I want Michael Easton back on GH yesterday. He is a Leading man if I ever saw one in Soaps. He’s sexy as hell and can act…perfect combination. He has so much chemistry with Kelly Monaco that their scenes are truly intense…full of intimate desire and passion for days. I could watch those two play love and war for decades.

    I want Shelly and Jean to bring him back and I don’t really care who he plays. They can bring him back as a recast Alcazar…if not Lorenzo then Luis. I know he fought with Alexis and fell to his death from a hotel but perhaps she killed the wrong brother and Luis was really the one pretending he was his brother as an imposter. Michael could be great opposite Laura Wright in a vengeful heated ex relationship and he already works opposite Maurice Benard proven by his first run on GH as McBain. They could age Alcazar’s daughter, bring Lila Rae on and pair her with Morgan…that would make the duo plagued by their parents betrayals, a young Romeo and Juliet. But honestly, I don’t care what they write….Silas, McBain, Alcazar…I will accept anything to bring Michael back.
    If OLTL can bring James Depaiva back as Max after the character had on air plastic surgery and was recast, if GH can bring back brain dead 100%, not there…GONE Jake back with no explanation given to the audience than they can bring Michael back.
    I’m sick of all my favorites leaving, I’m sick of GH and if Michael isn’t coming back then neither is my viewership.

    I think Ron knew he was getting fired so he stuck it to GH and the fans by letting the most popular and beloved actor die. I have never heard a negative word about Michael Easton…even when Ron stopped writing for him, Michael had nothing but kind words to say about him. As of now, there are over 4500 signatures on the petition to bring him back. Michael is a phenomenal actor and should brought back to GH. I can’t even watch the show anymore without him.
