Days of Our Lives and General Hospital are long-standing daytime television shows, with actors often switching between the two popular soap operas. Michael Easton and Kelly Monaco are no strangers to this transition, having significantly contributed to GH over time. Easton is famous for his role as Hamilton Finn, while Monaco is loved as Sam McCall.
Before their roles on General Hospital, Easton had ties to Days of Our Lives. Easton previously acted as Tanner Scofield on DOOL in the early 1990s, and Monaco and Easton had a strong on-screen connection as Caleb and Livvie on Port Charles. Their chemistry has fans excited about the possibility of them working together again on Days of Our Lives.
With Easton's character Finn no longer on GH and Monaco's future uncertain, speculation is swirling about their potential move to DOOL. Some rumors say Monaco could play his girlfriend or wife, Molly, if Tanner returns to Salem. But there haven't been any official announcements from the actors or the makers of the shows, leaving the speculations purely as fan theories at this point.
