And that’s where things get a little more complicated.
When “Port Charles” aired, some characters would float back and forth between shows.
If you don’t count that short-lived soap, Easton’s roles still tell a complicated story.

However, they decided they’d keep the actors.
That’s when Easton started playing his second official character on the classic soap opera.

Sam brought Silas back home with her because he was curious about his long-lost brother.
Some might have even noticed a resemblance to Caleb Morley.
We also learned that he had a wife who had languished in a coma for 20 years.

With Silas really and most sincerely dead, it looked like Easton’s life in Port Charles was over.
Michael Easton introduced General Hospital fans to Dr. Hamilton Finn
Not so fast.

He has remained in the role ever since.
Amazingly, Sam McCall was the only person to remark that Finn looked like two men she once knew.
He also became a father to a little girl named Violet (Jophielle Love) thanks to Hayden.

Now, wouldn’t that be clever?
But he was happy to have the opportunity to try something new.

I couldn’t pass up the opportunity.
I didn’t want Silas to be how I was remembered at GH.
But I’d be fine if Finn is the way I go out.
Happy, in fact."
