General Hospital has Michael Corinthos (Chad Duell) getting worse by the day. He used to be an all-around nice guy but his personality is quickly changing.

His anger seems to be growing by the minute. No doubt, he’s got a right to his anger, but is he going overboard on the ABC soap?

Everyone Once Adored Michael Corinthos on General Hospital

Michael Corinthos is the biological son of Carly Corinthos (Laura Wright) and AJ Quartermaine (Sean Kanan). He is the adopted son of Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard).

Plus, Jason Morgan (Steve Burton) pretended to be his father when he was a baby. The two maintained a very close relationship up until Jason’s recent “death”.

Recall, Michael also lost his bio-dad AJ at Sonny’s hands several years ago. Now, he’s estranged from Sonny, so there are no father figures in his life at present that he respects.

The Quartermaine and Corinthos families are two powerful families on General Hospital. And Michael is a member of both families and has lots of love in his life.

But Michael Corinthos went through some tough times when he was younger. He went into a coma after being shot. And he killed stepmom Claudia Zacchara (Sarah Brown) and was sent to prison. There, he was raped.

So, despite being a child of privilege, he had rough times. Plus, he’s been terribly unlucky in love. Two girlfriends, Abby Havern (Andrea Bogart) and Sabrina Santiago (Teresa Castillo) were killed. The latter by a serial killer.

An awful General Hospital love triangle saw him fight brother Morgan Corinthos (Bryan Craig) over Kiki Jerome (Hayley Erin). And who can forget psycho Nelle Hayes (Chloe Lanier) who led him to believe that their son died?

Recent Changes on GH

Once a good guy, Michael definitely had his bad moments over the years on General Hospital. He once ripped custody of his sister Avery Corinthos (Ava and Grace Scarola) away from his dad.

That was when he was angry with his father. But his easy-going personality always returned. But now, there seems to be a shift on the ABC soap. Michael seems to be angry at everyone on General Hospital these days.

But Sonny is taking the brunt of it. He is furious his father won’t cut Nina Reeves (Cynthia Watros) out of his life. When Sonny returned from Nixon Falls after amnesia, he was different.

Carly and Michael both wanted to punish Nina for keeping Sonny from them. But “Mike” refused to do this. So, Michael took it upon himself to have Nina arrested.

Then, all hell broke loose when the mob boss revealed on the stand that he didn’t think Nina should be punished. Sonny’s testimony got her off with the judge.

Now, their son is totally “Team Carly” on General Hospital. The young Mr. Corinthos also recently went off on his cousin Brook Lynn Quartermaine (Amanda Setton) and Harrison Chase (Josh Swickard).

Although he eventually apologized, fans thought he was very self-righteous. Michael will also not let go of his vendetta against Brad Cooper (Parry Shen).

He tried his hardest to keep Brad in prison. Yet it was really Nelle’s plot, not Brad’s. His anger towards Sonny only grew when his dad would not help keep Brad behind bars.

What Does the Future Hold for Michael?

Michael isn’t going to forgive his father anytime soon. And there are plenty more General Hospital residents for him to rage at as well.

Sonny’s son just punched a reporter at General Hospital. But who can blame him after the guy said nasty stuff about his sister Josslyn Jacks (Eden McCoy)?

Plus, something is up with Willow Tate’s (Katelyn MacMullen) maternity. Nina might be Willow’s bio-mom after all. As Harmony Miller (Inga Cadranel) is definitely hiding something.

Plus, Nina and Harmony are conspiring to get visitation rights for their grandson. This may push an already aggravated Michael over the edge.

This angry version of Michael Corinthos looks like it’s here to stay. There are many on GH who will be easy targets but Sonny will probably take the most direct hit.

Who knows if this father-son relationship can survive this strife. But Nina and Harmony should also be wary of his wrath. And if Nina is his sweetie’s mom, Michael Corinthos’ head just might explode.
