When it comes to looking back on the best, craziest, most dramatic moments on General Hospital this week, we know what we think. But what we really want to know is what YOU think? What were your picks for this week's funniest moment? Or best performer? We've got some talking points to get you all started, but give us your own picks in the comments below!
Funniest Moment: This was an especially comedy-free week of GH, for good reason, but we were able to wring the slightest ghost of a laugh at Carly's reaction to learning that Luke brought her the news of her placement on the suspect list ... when he was a suspect too!
WTH? Moment: In the heavily emotional scene, when Elizabeth slapped Jason for asking her to donate Jake's kidney to Josslyn: she accused Jason of choosing to abandon Jake as his father.
Best Moment: Despite the WTH-ness of the above moment, that moment with Jason and Elizabeth was absolutely crackling with tension and emotion and their shared history.
Performer of the Week: Jonathan Jackson as Lucky Spencer, who broke our hearts every single day this week, especially at the moment that Jason told him that Jake was dead.
Why We Love General Hospital This Week: The scene with Luke and Lucky where Luke brings up the time they thought Lucky had died in the apartment fire was a great nod to history.
So let's hear YOUR favorite GH moments this week!

WHY DONT CARLY AND SONNY LOOK AFTER MICHEAL'S SAFETY.HE IS NOT JASON'S SON,COME ON GIVE JASON A LIFE.THE WRITERS GOT HIM GOING IN SO MANY DIFFERENT DIRECTIONS,THAT IS CRAZY AND NOT FAIR,WHEN DO HE GET A LIFE.HE NEED TO TELL CARLY AND SONNY TAKE CARE OF YOUR OWN KIDS.AND BRENDA NEED TO MARRY A BANKER,SHE KNEW WHAT SONNY DID WHEN SHE MARRIED HIM,NOW BECAUSE SHE HAS A SON THAT LIFE AINT GOOD ENOUGH FOR HIM,BUT IT IS FINE FOR SONNY'S KIDS,WHAT A JOKE.ONE LAST THING WHEN THE HELL ARE YOU WRITERS GETTING RID OF LISA!!!!! I AM SICK OF HER,END THIS ALREADY....
Sam is Sonny's leftovers and I don't see the chemistry between Jason and Sam. Liz brought out the tender side of Jason. Poor guy never had a true story line because he was always portrayed as Carly and Sonny's flunky. Putting his life on hold to save them. They finally give him a story but it has to be tragic. No opportunity to show him mentoring his own child and now they're considering having Sam have his baby? Total nonesense is what I believe this show has turned into. Killing off a child to save another. How believeable is that when they're not even related. All i can say is dumb, dumb, dumb move.
While I'm terribly sad that a child died..It's time to move on and tell the story of Jason and Sam. These two are the only reason I watch GH and I am absolutely in Love with JaSam. Liz unfortunately was never the women for Jason..he would have to be someone different in order to be with her..and she never had the connection, the chemistry and the love that he has with Sam. I have watched GH for more than 30 years and I know the history of Liz and Jason..and that is all it is..HISTORY..Jason' future is Sam McCall..with all the horrible things that most females on Soaps have done and been forgiven..I can certainly see Jason forgiving Sam for the mistakes she made..especially when he was the cause of those mistakes..lets see the love between a couple that certainly deserves it..Jason and Sam...so much magic! A love that will not die! A story that is being told..thanks GH!
I read that Genie Francis is joining The Young and the Restless so I don't see her coming on the show. They would have to totally replace the actress but I agree I can't believe she wouldn't be there for Lucky. I too hope that Franco is framing Luke and he has Jake alive.
Lisa has to go.
Totally disappointed with this whole story line. Jason and Liz were my reason for staying tuned in but the writers never allowed this storyline to develop. She was his friend and their relationship grew into something that could have been super couple material. When they decided to make Jake Jason's son I was so excited to finally see Jason with his own son as oppose to mentoring other people's children. The writers never allowed that story line to flourish and I think it was such a poor decision. Liz and Jason has something special. Sam tried to have Jake kidnapped and yet they chose for Jason to forgive that. I don't get it. People that oppose Liz and Jason probably haven't been GH fans for long. Why can't this storyline be somebody's bad dream and bring this child back. Enough with Lisa, Johnny, Theo and Suzanne. Bring Bobbie, Monica and Laura back even if its temporary. These new characaters are not doing anything for the show and enough of the whole GH storyline surronding mob and police activity. Lets get back to family and love stories not death and destruction!!!
I'm so angry that they kill off Jason son and left crazy Lisa and Brenda who wine all the time took Jason son to save Carly daughter why not the other way around Carly daughter save Jason son Jason is always there for Carly I really and truly hate this story line i have watch GH seen they aired I seen so much potential with Jason and his son did the writer thank we wont to see this story line so now make Franco be the kill and not Luke.
Who knows maybe Franco is really Carly's adopted brother, Lucas. After all Carly never hears from Bobbi nor her little brother. Maybe Franco has the real & alive Jake. Can't believe Luke could run over a child and not atleast know it, didn't his car have headlights. Where is Laura? Lucky needs his mom during all this.Are doesn't she care since Jake was really Jason's. And by the way, where is Moncia & Edward? Lisa & Ronnie needs to go. Like Michael & Abby, but shouldn't Micheal be spending time with Jason and his little sister at a time like this. Would like to see more of Mac & Alexis.
One more thing....We as the viewers never saw Jake die!
I am so angry that even the thought that Luke was the driver that killed Jake. First I am mad, angry all these emotions that Jake would die. I hope they bring him back and it was a child switch out, then for it to be Luke. He is one of my favorite people and kudo's to him for the great acting. I suppose it is time for him to hit the road. I do not understand why such hate is coming out on Elizabeth. People leave her alone. Rebecca's acting is great and I love her. The only 4 people that need to leave is Ronnie, Lisa, Theo and Franco. I really hope the Jake story is a big set up by Franco and Jason gives him what he deserves. I love Jason and Elizabeth together infact Rebecca chemisty with all her men is great. When is Ronnie going to be given up as a crocked cop. He sure looks like one and acts like one.
How did Jake's kidney match with Jos? Grant it Carly and Lucky are cousins but Jake and Jos have nothing in common. Franco knows everything about Jasaon so he would have to know that Jake was his. Now when is Elizabeth going to read the DNA and find our that Aiden is Lucky's and not Nicholas'. Will someone find Suzanna's body you know Theo had her or will have her killed.
Performer of the week, I think that is a tie between Becky and Steve. Becky did an amazing job of showing her grief of losing her son. Steve kept me in tears the entire week. I don't normally cry over TV shows, but there was just something about seeing Jason greiving over the loss of the son he tried to protect.
Best moment - when Jason went back to Liz's house to return the motorcycle. I thought Becky and Steve were wonderful, so open and honest. I'm so glad to see the two of them in the same scene again - I just wish it wasn't over the death of their son.
I really and truly HATE this storyline. There was NO need to kill off baby Jake - his future story with Jason and the Quartermaines had sooooo much potential.
WTH moment - When Sam told Dante that she couldn't be around Jason because of his history with Liz. WTH - if you love your man like you CLAIM you do - you put aside your own uncomfortable feelings and take care of your man when he is hurting! I wanted to slap the $*** out of her.
