It’s time to celebrate the history of daytime’s longest running soap on the air in these GENERAL HOSPITAL spoilers! April 1 marked GH’s 56th anniversary, although due to a recent preemption, the special episode marking the occasion is scheduled to air on Tuesday, April 2. To help promote the celebratory show, GH vets Jacklyn Zeman (Bobbie), Kin Shriner (Scotty), and Leslie Charleson (Monica) taped a special clip to make sure fans would be tuning in. “Believe us when we say, you don’t want to miss it,” teased Zeman.

In another clip for the anniversary, John J. York (Mac) and Kristina Wagner (Felicia) reminded viewers about how special this particular episode was going to be. “We’re gonna be there,” she declared. “Are you?”

The episode will not only celebrate the history of the show but also the character of Gail Baldwin, whose will is being read. “The hospital has changed a lot in 56 years,” Monica marvels to Bobbie as they stand at the nurses station looking around. “I think we like the drama.” And Bobbie smiles as she remarks to Scotty: “Look at us, we’re still here after all this time.”
