With its bank of new episodes quickly nearing an end, General Hospital will soon begin airing throwback episodes full-time, starting with three full weeks -- yes, three -- of classic moments from the star-studded Nurses Ball.
General Hospital's Nurses Ball is a tradition that fans have loved for over 25 years, and now viewers will be treated with some of the best, most memorable moments from the wildly popular event. With the ABC soap opera's bank of new, pre-COVID19-taped episodes coming to an end, GH will begin airing throwback episodes starting Monday, May 25. And guess what? The first three weeks of classic episodes will be completely dedicated to the Nurses Ball!
States a release from the ABC soap opera about the episodes scheduled to run until Friday, June 12, "Without question, the Nurses Ball remains fictional Port Charles' most glamorous charity event. Dedicated to HIV/AIDS awareness and research, the Nurses Ball features exquisite red carpet fashion, original music, awe-inspiring musical and dance performances, and plenty of intrigue, excitement, and drama. Relive the magic, music, and mayhem as ABC reaches into the vault to showcase some of General Hospital's greatest hits from the Nurse's Ball."
