Michael Easton Got His First Job With NBC After Acting In A Play
Fans know that Michael Easton isn’t new to acting, and he certainly isn’t new to the world of soap operas. Before appearing on General Hospital, he portrayed John McBain on One Life To Live. He also played Caleb Morley on Port Charles and had a stint on Days Of Our Lives. Michael also appeared in several primetime programs, including Ally McBeal.
That being said, his departure from Gh wasn’t the first time he’s been fired.

Michael Easton is grateful for his time on General Hospital. But the actor, whose last day on the ABC soap was June 27, has one regret over the way his character, Dr. Hamilton Finn, wrapped his time in Port Charles.
“From an acting standpoint, I would have liked to have just brought a little more subtlety and nuance to it,” he recently told Soap Hub about how his character fell off the wagon and immediately went off to rehab. “I had to get to a point very quickly.”
But, Easton added, “I was the beneficiary of a lot of really good writing and directing. I got to work with some really wonderful actors.”
On June 26, Easton revealed via social media that he was leaving the ABC sudser. Easton first joined Gh in 2012 after departing One Life to Live, where he had played John McBain since 1999. He previously starred on Port Charles and Days of Our Lives.

Producer/directed Sean Cunningham has admitted multiple times that, when making his seminal slasher movie "Friday the 13th," he was directly hoping to ape the success of John Carpenter's "Halloween." The latter, released in 1978, made $70 million on a tiny budget of about $350,000. Cunningham decided to up the budget of "Friday" to a whopping $550,000, and he, miraculously, achieved his goal; "Friday the 13th" made almost $60 million.
The story of "Friday the 13th," as any bloodthirsty Gen-Xer can tell you, follows a group of camp counselors who have arrived at Camp Crystal Lake in New Jersey to prepare it for the summer's coming campers. They entertain themselves by smoking weed, engaging in coitus, and telling ghost stories of the poor child -- Jason Voorhees -- who drowned in Crystal Lake a few years before, unsupervised when his counselors were distracted by their vices. Shortly thereafter, a mysterious, unseen killer begins stalking the counselors at night,...

Trevor St. John, who joined The Young and the Restless in 2022, has revealed that his time in Genoa City has come to an end.
In a series of posts on X, the actor who took over the role of Tucker McCall explained to fans that it was his turn to give up the role on the CBS sudser.
“As you well know, Tuckers come and Tuckers go, and so the cycle continues… this Tucker is in his go phase…” he began the X thread. “I thank each and every member of the wonderful cast, the crew, the directors, the producers and production staff, and CBS/Sony for the great experience from day one to the last. I feel so fortunate to have played such a terrific role.”

It goes without saying that when it comes down to one of the most talented and entertaining ensembles on network television, The Rookie is going for the prize.
In an age when ensembles face a litany of casting issues, shifts, changes, and cutbacks, The Rookie has remained intact with little issue.
And while the cast has evolved over the years, it has found a relatively consistent rhythm.
So, what are the characters and cast looking like for The Rookie Season 7?

General Hospital’s Dr. Hamilton Finn (Michael Easton) is very quickly spiraling out of control since his father, Gregory Chase (Gregory Harrison) passed away.
Finn is certainly not paying adequate attention to his young daughter, Violet Finn (Jophielle Love) either.
General Hospital Spoilers – Is The Show Working Up To Michael Easton’s Latest Exit?
General Hospital fans know that Michael has already played several characters on the show in the past thirteen years. Easton joined the show when One Life To Live was cancelled in 2011.
Since then, Easton has played John McBain, Stephen Clay, Caleb Morley, Silas Clay and now Hamilton Finn. Unfortunately, Finn has not had the best of luck with women

General Hospital has viewers wondering whether Finn (Michael Easton) is leaving the show.
Rumors have circulated about three actors leaving, and with Gregory’s (Gregory Harrison) death taking care of one of those, it seems Finn may be one too.
The alcohol situation seemingly came out of nowhere after Finn focused on his sobriety for years. Violet (Jophielle Love) has been his priority, and with Hayden (Rebecca Budig) out of the picture, she is all he has.
Elizabeth’s (Rebecca Herbst) concern has also grown. She has watched her relationship crumble, and there is no going back.
As the writers continue the storyline, it becomes more apparent the end may result in Finn’s demise.
Here’s what we know about Finn leaving General Hospital.

Those were the heartfelt words of Michael Zaslow of “Guiding Light” as he accepted the Daytime Emmy Award for Best Actor in 1994. It was his third time in as many years vying for the prize for his part as Springfield’s most reviled citizen, Roger Thorpe. Zaslow had played Roger from 1971 to 1980, and resumed the role in 1989. He seemed genuinely surprised when Linda Dano (the 1993 Daytime Emmy winner for Best Actress for “Another World”) read his name.

On the heels of Billy Baker’s sentimental “return” and a nostalgia-fueled 100th episode, All American had fans reaching for the tissues once again on Monday with its tribute to the late Kamar de los Reyes.
De los Reyes — best known for playing cop Antonio Vega on ABC’s One Life to Live — passed away last December after a brief battle with cancer. He was able to appear as Coach Montes in All American‘s Season 6 premiere in April, but since de los Reyes’ passing, his character has been kept offscreen without explanation.

The Young and the Restless spoilers and updates reveal that Alan Laurent (Christopher Cousins) is playing a crucial role in Ashley Abbott’s (Eileen Davidson) storyline.
Although some fans are skeptical about their trust in Alan, Ashley and her family members have unwavering faith in him.
The Young And The Restless Spoilers: Bad Guy Or Good Guy?
Viewers familiar with Christopher Cousins have to admit some of his past soap opera roles have painted him as a conniving villain.
On ABC’s One Life To Live, he played Cain Rogan, a con man and on General Hospital a devious doctor who attempted to rape another female doctor he worked with. Speculation has arisen on social media regarding Alan’s true intentions, suggesting that he may be a disguised villain.
It’s worth considering that Alan’s selflessness and willingness to use his knowledge as a former psychologist might seem too good to be true.
