This week on General Hospital (Jan 12–16, 2026) was tense and emotionally heavy, with the trial driving nearly everything. Much of our discussion focused on Alexis, whose role shifted once she learned Trina and Kai were with Drew the night he was shot. Her choices — and the moral gray area she navigated with Diane and Sonny — showed just how boxed in she truly was.

In court, reasonable doubt ruled, but the verdict didn’t bring clean closure. Fallout lingered for Dante and Chase, while chaos exploded at the Quartermaine house as Tracy, Ned, Olivia, and Drew collided, ending with Olivia pulling a rifle on Drew and Laura later forcing a fragile truce.

We also covered Molly and Cody taking a sincere, slightly uncomfortable step forward, Anna’s disturbing isolation and psychological manipulation, and the growing uncertainty around Faison’s shadow. Valentin, Carly, Brennan, and Cullum continued taking risks that feel ready to unravel.

Plus: Britt and Jason’s axe-throwing date and concerns about old patterns, set changes, legal nuance, cast news, and a listener theory that Drew could be Shiloh.

Hosts Amanda and Shannon break it all down in their weekly recap.
