The way the latest episode of General Hospital ended left all viewers pretty disappointed. The episode that aired on March 9, 2021, saw a beloved character dying after getting shot in the chest. This has left all the viewers wondering if this is a dead dead or a soap dead where the characters usually come alive after some time.
All the General Hospital viewers were on the edge of their seats when all the wrong-doings of Peter came to light. His wedding to Maxie was interrupted after the truth of everything he has done so far came to light. The truth about Alex being his mother also got out, and then Anna confirmed that Peter was the one responsible for the plane crash that led to the death of Drew.
Later on, Franco kidnapped Peter and started threatening him unless he confessed the truth. Many fans thought that it would be the end of Peter. But then things changed when the tables were turned, and Franco was on the gunpoint. Then, Franco got shot in the heart and died while Elizabeth tried to revive him.
General Hospital: Fans Are Disappointed With The Twist
All the General Hospital fans have actively taken up on Twitter to express how disappointed they are with this new twist that the soap writers brought in. One fan took on to Twitter to say that Julian, Drew, Lulu, and Franco are the characters with strong and loyal fan bases, and General Hospital is getting rid of every one of them but keeping Peter. A character who might just have five people who like him. Even Dustin has more fans than Peter, and General Hospital decides for him to stay. They attached a gif of Are You Stupid with the tweet.
Another fan says that their heart is in shambles right now. They have never thought they would like Franco, but they did. The fan continued to the point that Franco loved Liz and the boys. They cannot believe that General Hospital chose to kill him. It just sucks. Clearly, the fans did not like this twist. What is next for Peter and Franco now?
Franco Reveals What’s Next For Him
While Franco might be dead on soap opera right now, it looks like Franco’s portrayer Roger Howarth’s time on the soap opera isn’t over. According to Soap Opera Digest, Howarth isn’t leaving the show. In fact, he is looking forward to a new chapter. In an interview with Soap Opera Digest, Howarth is happy that he is in good hands with General Hospital writers. Although, we do not know where the story will go on from here.
For now, Howarth is on a short break, and while he is on break, he intends to do Cameo videos and raise money for Feeding America. Reports suggest that he will donate 100 percent of the profits from these videos to NGOs. More reports suggest that when Howarth comes back next, he will come as a new character. We will have to wait to see what that character is. We will keep you updated with all the news about General Hospital as we get it. So, you stay tuned.
