Santa's List Just Got a Major Shake-Up in Port Charles!
It’s that time of year again—when the residents of Port Charles find out if they’ve made Santa’s nice or naughty list. While some names on the nice list are no surprise, the naughty list is packed with jaw-dropping twists. Who’s getting gifts and who’s getting coal? Let’s dive into the drama of General Hospital’s 2025 holiday lineup.
Key Takeaways
- Chase and Dante are shockingly on the naughty list—yes, even the usually upright detective.
- One brother lands on the nice list, while the other gets coal.
- The top spot on the nice list goes to an unexpected but deserving favorite.
Who’s Been Naughty in Port Charles?
Some naughty list entries are no-brainers, like Sidwell (Carlo Rota) and Drew (Cameron Mathison), whose antics have kept fans on the edge of their seats. But others? Total shockers. Take Chase (Josh Swickard), for instance. The typically noble detective seems to have lost his way, especially when it comes to his ex, Willow (Katelyn MacMullen). His recent suspension from the PCPD over her trial (https://soaphub.com/general-hospital/news-gh/rinse-december-23-willows-trial-blows-up/) has strained relationships with friends like Michael (Rory Gibson), Dante (Dominic Zamprogna), and even his wife, Brook Lynn (Amanda Setton).
Speaking of Dante, he’s hardly in a position to judge. His treatment of Gio (Giovanni Mazza) this year has been less than stellar. Despite knowing Gio is his son for six months, Dante has blamed him for Rocco’s (Finn Carr) missteps and tried to keep the brothers apart. Not exactly Father of the Year material.
Another unexpected naughty lister? Martin (Michael E. Knight). His attempt to get revenge on Tracy (Jane Elliot) by forging Monica’s (the late Leslie Charleson) will was a low blow. Will he turn over a new leaf, or is he behind the anonymous letter sent to Alexis (Nancy Lee Grahn) about Michael and Tracy’s secret involving Drew’s shooting? Only time will tell.
Who’s Been Nice in Port Charles?
Kicking off the nice list is Jason (Steve Burton). Love him or hate him, the stone-cold hitman has a heart of gold. He’s rescued Britt (Kelly Thiebaud) multiple times since her return, covered up Dalton’s (Daniel Goddard) body without hesitation, and even found time to decorate Alexis’ house with his son. Talk about multitasking!
Then there’s Gio, who has never intentionally caused harm. His kindness knows no bounds—he saved Ned (Wally Kurth) during a heart attack, freed a pack of dogs from Dalton’s lab, and has been the ultimate big brother to Rocco, despite Dante’s criticism. A violin-sized present under the tree (https://soaphub.com/general-hospital/news-gh/why-sonny-should-buy-gio-new-violin/) is the least he deserves.
And finally, topping the nice list is Outback, Port Charles’ beloved pooch. This dog can do no wrong and has even saved the day more than once. Truly, the MVP of the year.
But here’s where it gets controversial... Is Chase’s fall from grace justified, or is he just a victim of circumstance? And does Dante’s behavior toward Gio make him undeserving of forgiveness? Let’s not forget Martin—is his revenge plot a one-time mistake, or a sign of deeper issues?
What do you think? Are these lists spot-on, or did Santa miss the mark? Let us know in the comments—we’re all ears!
