Matt Cohen Is Out As Entertainment Tonight Co-Host. Now General Hospital Fans Want Him Back
John Castro With Matt Cohen's exit from "Entertainment Tonight" confirmed, the next logical landing place for Cohen would be to return to "General Hospital." There's still a lot of stories left for Griffin Munro to sink his teeth into. For starters, the last time he was mentioned on the show, he was revealed to be Ellie Trout's new beau. If Griffin returned to the canvas, being in a love square with Ellie, Damien Spinelli (Bradford Anderson), and Maxie Jones (Kirsten Storms) could be a great place to start. Maxie and Spinelli need a good story.
One viewer took to Twitter to remark on the idea of Griffin and Maxie, saying, "Matt Cohen back? Yes. With Liz? Not especially. Griffin/Maxie? Yes! A Griffin-Jordan-Zeke triangle? Now that could work! #GH." Another fan however disagrees and wants a Griffin and Elizabeth romance. They tweeted, "Can we get Griffin back for Liz? Pretty pretty please? #GH." While both of those are exceptional options, a different viewer believes it doesn't matter who Griffin gets paired with, as long as he returns. They wrote, "I loved Matt Cohen. Thought he had chemistry with everybody. He could come back #GH."
It remains unclear if Cohen is considering returning to his daytime drama roots. However, with the SAG-AFTRA strike ongoing, it may be one of the only available options for him at this time. Soap actors are under different union rules, so this could be the best decision for everyone involved.
