General Hospital
ABC daytime drama
General Hospital is a long-running American television soap opera set in a fictional hospital in Port Charles, New York.
First airing in 1963, it became the template for medical drama combined with romantic intrigue, family feuds, and occasional espionage plots.
My grandmother has watched General Hospital since the seventies.
