After spending time away from Port Charles to concentrate on his college studies in real life, actor William Lipton will soon return to “General Hospital” as Cameron Webber for some emotional scenes during the week of February 5.

With Spencer Cassadine (Nicholas Chavez) presumed dead after a fall into the water alongside ex-girlfriend Esme (Avery Kristen Pohl), family, friends and all those in between will gather in memory of the beloved Cassadine heir, which includes his best friend and cousin Cameron. In real life, Spencer’s portrayer is taking time off to film the Netflix limited series “Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story,” with Chavez portraying the elder Menendez brother, Lyle.

Lipton was last seen on the soap in March 2023. He joined the cast of the daytime drama series in 2018 as the firstborn son of Elizabeth Webber (Rebecca Herbst).

Soap Opera Digest, which first reported Lipton’s return, interviewed the actor last year following his most recent appearance, wherein he said of fans missing his appearance on the series, “It’s always an honor to be so well-received by such an amazing and loving community.” He added, “They have been following a good chunk of my life now. I started [on ‘GH’] when I was a sophomore in high school and now I’m a sophomore in college. I’m so thankful for everyone’s concern and the love they’ve given me.”

In 2020, Lipton was nominated for a Daytime Emmy Award in the category of Outstanding Original Song for his work as composer and lyricist for the song “North Star,” which was featured on “General Hospital.” 

In addition to his musical talents, Lipton was also previously nominated two other times by the National Academy of Television Arts & Sciences, the organization behind the Daytime Emmy Awards, for his portrayal as Cameron Webber on the soap in the now-eliminated Outstanding Younger Performer in a Daytime Drama Series category (2022 nominee) and also eliminated Outstanding Younger Actor in a Drama Series (2019 nominee) category, the latter of which preceded the former which combined actor and actress nominees into one category starting in 2020.

    • I wish the Black male characters felt more fleshed out (and I’m not talking about gross 2000s-style man pain like with Jonathan Randall or Billy Abbott). I feel like we don’t have as much access to their interior worlds, which—fine—female genre. Right now, the balance on BTG feels off to me gender-wise, mostly because there are a lot of Dupree daughters (Chelsea, Naomi, Dani, Nicole, Kat, possibly Eva) and only one son (Martin). Feel free to disagree. I think Andre, Bill, and Martin feel closest to male “main characters” to me (Jacob had his quick moment), in that they can drive a scene from their POV and not as a supporting character. I’m waiting for the secrets to be fully revealed so that the men can show more layers. But things like having two cheating husbands stand out more in this type of environment.
    • I'll get back to you when Jordan appears on screen. Lol!  
    • Don't feel bad: most do. I know it's in the "less than" category of opinions. And lunch? What's for lunch today?

       Definitely am improvement overall, hah. I want someone to call him "bastard". Ha. Maybe I should sneak into Port Charles for a second.
    • A very underrated writer/director, IMO.  Of course, not all of his films were successful or memorable, but the ones that are - "Kramer," "Places in the Heart," "Nobody's Fool," etc. - are masterpieces.
    • I tend to ignore the fact you like Tanisha Harper.  She just blends in.  When she comes on screen I literally mind drift and think what I want for lunch. Melgar's Lily at least iconically blew up!!!  And once you know she's going to explode LM is tolerable in rewatch. It's coming!!  Half the young people in town call him "Uncle Sonny" or, well, "Dad" lol.  You know Emma's going to be on that bandwagon. 
    • Jennifer Brooks had insisted that life go on since all her family knew that death might be eminent for her. Brock had given them a philosophy by which to live. "God grant me the serenity to accept that which I cannot change, the courage to change that which I am able and the wisdom to know the difference." Lorie asked her father to let her give a big party for the family and friends to celebrate her parents' thirtieth wedding an-niversary. He disapproved until Lorie said this was not a reminder of how little time there was, but a celebration of the life they had had together. Jennifer was pleased and looked forward to the party.  That evening, Stuart gave Jennifer her anniversary gift before the party rather than after. It was a diamond heart pendant to symbolize the heart he gave her long ago — his own. Lance and Lorie gave them a trip to Paris as a gift. Stuart had wanted to take Jennifer away, but she wouldn't leave the girls with their problems. The party was such a success that Jennifer told Stuart that this had been the most wonderful night of her life. Jennifer slipped away in Stuart's arms that night, clutching her pendant.  Stuart called Lorie who located all her sisters and asked them to meet at their parents'. He explained that their mother felt no pain and was happy as she passed peacefully away. Peggy felt she should have been home for her mother rather than visiting a friend, but Stuart said it was sudden. Lorie blamed herself for giving the party which was probably too much. Stuart told her how much that party meant to Jennifer. Brock came by to tell them that Jennifer had him draw up instructions for her burial and wanted only her family with her. He also had a letter for Stuart. She wrote him this love letter in case she didn't have the opportunity to tell him in person how much their life together had meant to her and this is why she wanted him to remarry.  Snapper visited his mother after he learned of Jennifer's death. He felt he hadn't seen enough of her recently.  After the funeral, Peggy told her sisters that she would not be going away to school. She was the only one left to care for their father because Chris and Lorie had husbands and Leslie had a career. Stuart insisted that Peggy finish packing and catch her plane to school as planned.  Chris was worried about her father after Snapper told her to keep an eye on him because grieving husbands could become ill as they didn't remember to eat. She called to insist that she was coming over to fix his dinner and found that Liz was there. Liz asked him for an extra key so that she could do the laundry and cleaning to repay him for earlier kindnesses.
    • I would assume "friends of Ripa" would come into play.

    • I'm aware of that but I was more curious about which characters were going to be included and what actors they were loooking at.
    • Harper > Melgar (yes, I said it) I happen to be in the lonely camp of actually liking Harper as Jordan, although I still believe Jordan, as a character, could easily be eliminated from the canvas, and I would be A-OK with it. Honestly, the character of Jordan went from interesting to expendable the moment she was taken out of the Jerome circle and made a law enforcement agent. I'm not age-shaming Finola Hughes either. It simply comes down to the characters at this point. To go from interacting with David Hayward and Edmund on AMC to Jason and Sonny on GH... is an actual choice. Hell, I'd even add Valentin to that list.
