General Hospital spoilers: Will Nina reveal Michael and Sasha's secret and change everything for Willow and Drew?
On Friday, May 30, things heat up in Port Charles as several long-running secrets stir up fresh tensions. Nina leans on Ava for guidance, while Michael opens up to Sasha. Curtis may still be holding back resentment, and Liz finds some comfort in a catch-up with Laura.
Nina turns to Ava amid explosive secrets
Nina (Cynthia Watros) finds herself holding onto a potentially life-altering secret. She knows the truth about her history with Drew (Cameron Mathison), and she also realizes that Michael (Rory Gibson) and Sasha (Sofia Mattsson) had a drunken night that led to Sasha's pregnancy. The implications could be huge—not only for Willow (Katelyn MacMullen) but also for custody issues moving forward.
Caught between exposing the truth or keeping quiet, Nina seeks advice from Ava (Maura West). Ava, always sharp and strategic, might have some critical guidance. Will this conversation happen in court? And will Ava push Nina toward revenge, or resolution?

Michael faces Sasha with a sensitive request
Michael has already told Sasha he's willing to step back from the child if that's what she wants. But deep down, it's clear he's not at peace with that decision. Now, he approaches Sasha again—this time with a specific request. Whether it's about their child or Sasha testifying in court remains unclear, but the emotional weight behind it could change everything.
Curtis reconsiders, while Laura offers Liz support
Elsewhere, Curtis (Donnell Turner) is still dealing with the aftermath of discovering Portia's (Brook Kerr) and Drew's manipulations during the Nurses' Ball. Though he and Portia kept up appearances that night, he's clearly not over it. His unease could also involve Drew, hinting at some unresolved tension between old friends.
Meanwhile, Alexis (Nancy Lee Grahn) and Kristina (Kate Mansi) meet with Lucky (Jonathan Jackson) to work out a plan—perhaps to gain the upper hand against Ric and Ava. The family dynamic here is getting complex, and Alexis seems ready to take action rather than let Kristina make further mistakes.
Amid all this, Liz (Rebecca Herbst) continues her recovery and reconnects with Laura (Genie Francis). With Laura under pressure from political rivals like Sidwell and Councilman Boyle, and Liz navigating her own struggles, their conversation may provide mutual relief and insight.
In Port Charles, everyone's juggling secrets, pressure, and choices—each one edging closer to a breaking point.

General Hospital spoilers: Who will win custody—Michael or Willow—as Sonny confides in Jason and Ric pressures Alexis?
After the drama of the Nurses' Ball, the focus now shifts to Michael and Willow as their divorce hearing begins. While both are clear about wanting to go their separate ways, the real conflict is about their children. Michael (Rory Gibson) and Willow (Katelyn MacMullen) have different ideas about what's best for Wiley (Viron Weaver) and Amelia (Sequoia & Serenity Mork Macko). Willow believes she should be the sole guardian. But Michael has made it clear — he doesn't want Drew (Cameron Mathison) near his children. With that, Michael is also pushing for full custody. As the courtroom showdown unfolds, expect intense emotions, legal tensions, and the possibility of buried secrets coming to light. The outcome could change everything for both parents — and their children. Sonny opens up, Trina takes a stand Away from the legal chaos, Sonny (Maurice Benard) finds a moment to speak openly with Jason (Steve Burton). He may be reflecting on his recent discovery that Gio (Giovanni Mazza) is his grandson, or maybe he's revisiting his desire to step away from his criminal ties. Either way, Sonny seems ready for a shift — or at least, some honest conversation. Meanwhile, Trina (Tabyana Ali) stands by Josslyn (Eden McCoy), who's caught in the aftermath of securing a lab assistant internship with Professor Dalton (Daniel Goddard). Trina might need to step in and defend her friend, especially if Emma (Braedyn Bruner) or others begin raising questions about how Josslyn landed the opportunity. "... this baby is coming!" #GH Ric tightens his grip on Alexis Ric (Rick Hearst) might be Willow's attorney during the divorce, but he's also keeping a close eye on Alexis (Nancy Lee Grahn). Their past complicates things — especially since Alexis might be trying to pull back from a money funneling scheme involving Ric and Ava (Maura West). With suspicions rising after Laura (Genie Francis) noticed irregularities in Ace's trust fund, Alexis is likely feeling the pressure. But Ric won't take kindly to her backing off, and he could remind her of the consequences. And just to stir the pot further, Jordan (Tanisha Harper) continues digging into Professor Dalton — likely uncovering a link to Sidwell (Carlo Rota), who seems to be playing a larger role in her alliances, courtroom tension, and secrets threaten to change everything in Port Charles this week on General Hospital.

Disney lays off hundreds across film, TV divisions amid industry woes
The layoffs, which began on Monday, affect staff in marketing, publicity, casting, development, and corporate finance New Delhi Media company Walt Disney Co is laying off several hundred employees across its film and television divisions, highlighting the downturn in the entertainment industry. The layoffs, which began on Monday, affect staff in marketing, publicity, casting, development, and corporate finance, according to media reports. This round follows the 200 job cuts at Disney's ABC and entertainment TV networks in March. Overall, the company has cut more than 8,000 jobs in recent years as part of efforts to boost profitability. Hollywood restructures as cost pressures mount Hollywood has been in cost-cutting mode for several years, with production and employment steadily declining, reports Bloomberg. Studios have scaled back film releases to improve profitability, especially as theatre attendance remains below pre-pandemic levels. Meanwhile, consumers are cancelling cable subscriptions in favour of streaming services, reducing advertising and distribution revenue for traditional TV channels. This shift is driving a major industry reorganisation. Comcast reportedly plans to spin off most of its cable channels, including MSNBC, USA, and CNBC, by year-end. Warner Bros. Discovery has restructured internally to separate its studio and cable operations, potentially paving the way for divesting the latter. Paramount Global also anticipates further cuts as it moves forward with a merger with independent studio Skydance Media. Disney's strategic decisions and financial outlook Disney had considered selling its TV networks, including ABC, but chose to retain them, according to reports. In February 2023, it cut 7,000 jobs, aiming to save $5.5 billion, later raising the target to $7.5 billion. Industry rivals have also executed thousands of layoffs. At the close of its last financial year in September, Disney employed approximately 233,000 people, with 76 per cent working full time. In its latest earnings report released in May, the company surpassed Wall Street forecasts, driven by an unexpected surge in Disney+ streaming subscriptions and robust performance from its theme parks.

And with that, an era ends: 'Thanks for watching us. It's the NBA on TNT'
Ernie Johnson could barely get the words out. The run of " Inside the NBA " on TNT came to an end on Saturday night, after nearly four decades as a fixture of the league. The show will move to ESPN and ABC next season - and keep Johnson, Shaquille O'Neal , Kenny Smith and Charles Barkley together, still doing most shows from Atlanta - but the final TNT sign-off was an emotional one. "I'm proud to say for the last time, 'Thanks for watching us. It's the NBA on TNT ,'" Johnson said, before turning his back to the camera, placing his microphone on the desk and getting up from that set for the final time. NBA games will not be airing on TNT starting next season when the league's new television package kicks in - an 11-year media rights deal worth at least $76 billion, one that keeps games on ABC and ESPN, brings the league back to NBC and starts a new relationship with Amazon Prime Video . ABC will broadcast the NBA Finals , meaning the end of the Eastern Conference finals between Indiana and New York was the end of TNT's run. Turner Sports first acquired an NBA package in 1984 and games were on TNT since the network launched in 1988. "Even though the name changes, the engine is still the same," O'Neal said during the final broadcast. "And to that new network we're coming to, we're not coming to (expletive) around. ... We're taking over, OK? I love you guys and I appreciate you guys." Live Events The moment was not lost on Indiana coach Rick Carlisle. His team had just clinched a spot in the NBA Finals by beating New York, and when his brief interview with Johnson during the trophy ceremony was over, Carlisle grabbed the microphone out of the host's hands. "Congratulations to TNT on a fabulous, unbelievable run that's coming to an end," Carlisle said in the unprompted tribute. "We're all very sad about that." The names of countless past and current broadcasters and analysts were included in the many tributes offered on-air after the game, including Doug Collins, Hubie Brown, Dick Stockton, Cheryl Miller, Danny Ainge, John Thompson, Steve Kerr, Mike Fratello, Marv Albert, Brian Anderson, Chris Webber, Candace Parker and Craig Sager. "Our hearts are full of gratitude," TNT's Kevin Harlan said on-air, speaking to the viewers. "Not sadness, but gratitude and happiness for what has been. It has been an honor. It has been a privilege. And I hope you all have enjoyed it as much as we have." Harlan had the play-by-play call for the final game, with Reggie Miller, Stan Van Gundy and Allie LaForce on the broadcast as well. "Think about my life. I'm very fortunate," Miller said. "I've only known two things: 18 years with one franchise in this building with the Indiana Pacers, and 19 years with Turner." Many members of the TNT production crew have gotten jobs with NBC and Amazon, Johnson said, because of their exemplary work to this point. "Best production crew in the business, I might add," Johnson said. And when it turned back to the "Inside the NBA" crew for one last time on TNT, the emotions were clear. "This has just been a magnificent ride," Smith said. Barkley talked about how he was going to sign with NBC when starting his broadcast career, then switched to TNT. "I just want to say thank you to the NBA," Barkley said. "Every coach I've had, every player I've played with, for giving me this magnificent life that I've had. I am so lucky and blessed. I'm lucky and blessed. And I want to thank TNT. Even though we'll never say TNT Sports again, I want to thank TNT for giving me a magnificent life."
