Attack of the Sloanes: GH swaps out the character's portrayer yet again

Attack of the Sloanes: GH swaps out the character's portrayer yet again

A familiar face will soon be reprising the role of General Hospital's Sloane.

Don't be surprised if you're watching General Hospital this fall and think you're having dj vu. The character of Kyle Sloane is heading back to the canvas, but instead of being played by soap vet Grayson McCouch (ex-Dusty Donovan, As the World Turns), former portrayer Robb Derringer will be reprising the role.

As fans may recall, Derringer was ousted from the role earlier this year, and McCouch has been playing him ever since. But Soaps In Depth reports that Sloane will be returning to the canvas for a short story arc in late September when Anna (Finola Hughes) returns to town -- and Derringer is back in the shoes of the character he originated last November.

What do you think about Derringer coming back to play Sloane? Who do you prefer in the role: Derringer or McCouch?
