Thirteen years after leaving the cast of General Hospital, Antonio Sabato Jr. has announced that he will return to the role of Port Charles bad boy Jagger Cates, on the spin-off General Hospital: Night Shift.

Sabato told Entertainment Tonight, "Out of all the characters I've ever played, that's the guy that everyone has been wanting to see again."

Most viewer responses fell under the categories "who?" and "Is he the guy that's married to Melanie Griffith or whatever?" But this blog continues to express dismay that Antonio has ignored our countless emails beseeching him to reprise the character of Subway Guy from season six, episode 13 of Becker.
