John Oliver is checking into \u201cGeneral Hospital.\u201d<\/p>\n

The multi-winning Emmy award talker loves soap operas he revealed recently. Why not? WHat did you think he did all day><\/p>\n

Oliver told his HBO audience last night that he will be featured on \u201cGeneral Hospital\u201d July 1, 2, and 6th. He\u2019s going to play a tough guy, as per the picture that was supplied.<\/p>\n

Then, in August, Oliver will do three episodes of \u201cDays of our Lives.\u201d<\/p>\n

Will he be quipping away on either show? Hard to say. <\/p>\n

Oliver said in a statement: \u201c\u2019General Hospital\u2019 was everything I hoped it would be. It\u2019s a true honor to be a small stain on the history of this illustrious show.\u201d <\/p>\n

This is just the beginning of celebrities admitting they watch soaps. Ryan Gosling recently spoke of his admiration for Deidre Hall and \u201cDays of our Lives\u201d during a press tour. The show immediately invited him, as well.<\/p>\n

\u201cGeneral Hospital\u201d has been visited by big stars in the past. Forty years ago, Elizabeth Taylor was a guest during the heady Luke and Laura days. Joan Collins subbed in on \u201cGuiding Light\u201d years ago. And of course, many stars came from soaps including Bryan Cranston, Julianne Moore, Meg Ryan, and Demi Moore.<\/p>\n

Maybe Oliver can get his next gig on \u201cThe Young and the Restless.\u201d The show just fired its headwriter, Josh Griffith, because the ratings were tanking and fans were angry with the direction of the show. The new writer could introduce Oliver as Victor Newman\u2019s long lost son!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
