That's right, Jedi Knight Luke Skywalker and the late singer Laura Branigan of "Gloria" fame will finally be together once again, an amazing feat considering he's a fictional character and she's dead. Wait, I'm sorry, the article was actually referring to Luke and Laura of General Hospital fame, arguably the most popular couple in the history of the show, and possible the most popular soap opera couple ever. Genie Francis, who played Laura, will return for episodes meant to celebrate the 25th anniversary of her marriage to Luke on November 16, 1981. Francis has been on and off the show several times, and it sounds as if these new appearances won't be a permanent thing, either. The episodes will air starting in October.

This is a huge deal for the world of GH. All these oldies & goodies are returning (Anna and Robert Scorpio, Holly Sutton) and now Laura... it is starting to smell like Anthony Geary (Luke) is prepping his farewell to the show and because he has such pull - he's requested his buddies from the glory days to come back for the sign off.
