General Hospital is the longest running American television serial drama, airing on ABC. Created by Frank and Doris Hursley, who originally set it in a general hospital (hence the title), in an unnamed fictional city. In the 1970s, the city was named Port Charles, New York. The series premiered on April 1, 1963. This is a list of notable characters who significantly impacted storylines and began their run, or significantly returned, from the years of 2010 to present day.
Curtis Ashford, portrayed by Donnell Turner, was introduced as a private investigator hired by Hayden Barnes (Rebecca Budig). Turner's casting was announced on November 19.
Curtis is introduced as a friend of Shawn Butler (Sean Blakemore) whom Hayden Barnes (Rebecca Budig) hires to uncover the truth behind her shooting. Curtis discovers that Hayden's boyfriend, Nikolas Cassadine (Tyler Christopher), was actually responsible for the shooting that left Hayden comatose. Curtis is soon revealed to be the brother-in-law of Police Commissioner Jordan Ashford (Vinessa Antoine) and uncle of her son, TJ (Tequan Richmond). Jordan is not happy to see Curtis, and demands that he leave town. Curtis becomes attracted to Valerie Spencer (Brytni Sarpy), an officer in training. Jordan tries to warn Valerie away from Curtis. Curtis reveals that he had a cocaine addiction, and Jordan later states that it led to him losing his job as a DEA agent. Curtis starts dating Valerie, and starts getting to know T.J. Curtis reveals that he told his brother, Tommy, that T.J. was actually Shawn's son. Curtis admits to Jordan that he regrets what he did, but T.J. overhears, and is furious with his mother for lying to him. He also talks to Curtis, who convinces T.J. to give Jordan another chance. Curtis tries to convince Jordan to give him a job as an officer, saying that he's changed, but Jordan has a hard time trusting him. Curtis is hired by Julian Jerome (William deVry) to find who planted a bomb in his car, which ended up killing Morgan Corinthos (Bryan Craig). Curtis suspects Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard), Morgan's father and Julian's rival. When Curtis goes behind Valerie's back to get evidence, Valerie breaks up with him. However, Curtis later realizes someone else is involved. When he starts tracking down his lead, Julian abruptly fires him. Curtis is left suspicious, and continues to investigate. He later teams up with Jason (Billy Miller) and Sam Morgan (Kelly Monaco) to find Morgan's killer. They found out that it was Julian's sister Olivia Jerome (Tonja Walker) that did it and framed Sonny in covering her tracks as well as kidnapping Sonny's longtime best friend Robin Scorpio-Drake (Kimberly McCullough); the information confirmed Curtis, Jason and Sam's story.
