General Hospital fans react to Nathan’s return from the dead
After 7 years, Ryan Paevey is reprising his role as Nathan West on General Hospital. While the character’s death shocked viewers in 2018, his return immediately is hitting viewers even harder, and not in the best way.
The show confirmed Nathan West’s return, and it has divided the fans on the General Hospital Fans – Official Facebook page. One user wrote, “I thought Ryan Paevy was coming back as a new character, and not as Nathan. Poor Spinelli if it is him.”
Meanwhile, another user shared their disappointment. “It would be refreshing if the writers could stop rehashing old storylines and bringing back the dead and instead come up with something new,” the user wrote in the post. Both posts have attracted attention, and users agree with what they say.
In 2018, Cesar Faison fatally shot Nathan while he was rescuing Maxie. Nathan was trying to cut Maxie from Faison when Faison resurfaced. Unfortunately, Nathan did not survive the shooting.
In 2015, when Lulu stopped to help at a roadside accident, she discovered that the person looked exactly like Nathan West. Hesitantly, she takes him to the hospital and admits him as John Doe since he had no ID on him. However, DNA tests confirmed that he is, in fact, Nathan West. Furthermore, how he survived and where he’s been are still unknown. But the ripple effects of his return are already being felt.
In an interview with TV Insider, Paevy hinted at what’s coming in the upcoming episodes. “This go-round is definitely going to be wildly different than the last one was,” the actor shared. “We’ve got some fun stuff planned. We’re going to stir the pot. I wouldn’t come back for something vanilla. It’s going to be a blast,” Paevy revealed.
