Maurice Benard

And the award for Cutest Performance by an Actor in a Lead Role goes to…. There is a lot to like about Maurice Benard, from the General Hospital performances that helped him transform Sonny into the focus of Port Charles to the patience that he shows in interacting with fans that are so staunchly Team “CarSon” that they diss and dismiss the don’s romance with Nina. But arguably our favorite thing about the actor, at least lately, has to be the videos that he shares with granddaughter TT.

A whole lot of soap couples have been torn apart after one catches the other in an illicit kiss. Of course, that’s somewhat ironic given that in real-life, the romantic partners of soap actors usually have to watch their mates turn up the heat with other people!. “My girlfriend...

The hour-long State Of Mind episodes feature well-known celebrities (often co-stars from General Hospital) and influencers who share their mental health struggles with Maurice Bernard. However, this week Maurice had an exclusive interview with Tyler Gerard, an innocent inmate who spent six years in a Thai jail. When Maurice was...

This is the duo we’ve been needing in our lives!. General Hospital‘s Maurice Benard has been talking to a slew of his famous friends and co-stars on his YouTube show, State of Mind, for a few years now, but for his most recent episode, Sonny’s portrayer zigged, instead of zagged.

Maurice Benard of "General Hospital" is one of daytime drama's biggest stars, and is an advocate for mental health advocate. He's been vocal about his own situation for years.

The actor thought that he had already played his character’s reaction to his lover’s misdeeds. You know the way it goes.

Soap fans are an opinionated group, but sometimes the freedom of social media causes them to get downright nasty when voicing those opinions. The Sonny and Nina relationship on GENERAL HOSPITAL has become a lightning rod for fans who have not been shy about saying exactly how they feel about it.

There’s disliking a storyline, and then there’s just being nasty. It might be the understatement of the millennium to say that General Hospital fans are split over the pairing of Sonny and Nina. Some love the couple and the way working opposite Cynthia Watros’ character lets Maurice Benard show a different side of Sonny. Others loathe “Sona” and rue the day that the ABC soap broke up the don and Laura Wright’s Carly — and they aren’t shy about expressing themselves.

The journey of the Maurice Benard hosted “State of Mind” series will be going beyond its original home on YouTube, the “General Hospital” actor announced today. The popular series launched in July 2020 and features guests talking about mental health and mental health awareness with the Daytime Emmy Award-winning actor and New York Times bestselling author (“Nothing General About It: How Love (and Lithium) Saved Me On and Off General Hospital”) is now available in podcast form on Spotify, Amazon Music, iHeartRadio, and Podchaser, with plans to launch on Apple and Google in the near future.
