Why isn’t General Hospital airing today (December 25, 2024)? Explained
The week of Christmas on the ABC show General Hospital started with touching family moments, heartfelt promises, and surprising turns. Tracy greeted Lulu when she came home and told her to focus on her family and trust the police to find Charlotte. Laura had a happy get-together with Lucky, Elizabeth, and Dante at Rice Plaza.
Elsewhere, Rocco secretly met with Charlotte, and Gio had an unexpected holiday meeting because of a stolen wallet. At the Quartermaine house, Jason and Ned had a friendly moment, and Brook Lynn felt jealous about Lulu's close relationship with Tracy.
New episodes of General Hospital will not air on Christmas Eve, December 24, or Christmas Day, December 25, as the show takes a break for the holiday season. However, fans can expect the exciting stories from Port Charles to continue after the celebrations as the show returns on December 26, 2024.
ABC offers a replacement for the new episodes of General Hospital
ABC’s daytime schedule is taking a short break during Christmas week, so General Hospital fans will have to wait for new episodes. No new episode will air on December 25 because of Christmas Day. But fans can still enjoy the show, as the episode from May 21, 2024, will be shown again at its regular time.
This rerun is notable for its emotional and dramatic content. In the episode, Port Charles deals with the aftermath of the tragic death of Gregory Chase, which has left everyone in shock. At the same time, things get tense after Sonny Corinthos violently attacks Dex Heller, leaving both men hurt not just physically but emotionally, too.
Also, Alexis Davis faces a dangerous person from her past. If someone has missed the episode when it first aired, this rerun offers a chance to catch up on some intense moments and major plot developments.
On December 25, ABC will air NBA games for Christmas Day. The first game starts at noon Eastern Time/9 am Pacific Time, with the San Antonio Spurs playing against the New York Knicks. The next game begins at 2.30 pm Eastern Time/11.30 am Pacific Time, with the Minnesota Timberwolves going up against the Dallas Mavericks.
What to expect from the upcoming General Hospital episode set to air on Thursday, December 26, 2024
After a short holiday break, General Hospital will return with new episodes on Thursday, December 26, 2024. Fans can expect more drama in Port Charles, with one of the main storylines focusing on a complicated pentagon involving Nina Reeves, Drew Cain, Willow Tait, Michael Corinthos, and Sasha Gilmore.
While many people in Port Charles know about Drew and Willow’s secret, no one knows about Nina and Drew’s passionate moment or that Michael slept with Sasha.
In other parts of the storyline, Carly Spencer and Brennan are growing closer, bringing romance and excitement to the plot. But as their relationship deepens, problems are bound to arise, creating tension that could threaten their bond. At the same time, Lucky Spencer is supporting Elizabeth Webber as she faces challenges at work.
Of course, no episode of General Hospital would feel complete without the constant threat of Cyrus Renault. Even though he’s locked up, Cyrus keeps causing problems, risking everyone’s safety and peace.
Fans of General Hospital can watch the show's new episodes on ABC and Hulu.
