Christopher was  at the Mid-American All Indian Center in Wichita this weekend to sign autographs and see his mother. Tyler is a member of the Choctaw-Seneca Tribe. In a article with McPherson-Sentinel, he said the following about leaving GH and going to "The Lying Game" in the fall:

   “Our budget has been cut so much over the years and the people that have been there a long time have had their salaries bumped and they are the first to go unfortunately...Some people are going to feel the wrath unfortunately,” said Christopher.
    General Hospital isn’t the only soap opera suffering. Just recently “One Life to Live” and “All my Children” were cancelled after decades on the air.
    “It’s not a good sign,” said Christopher.
    Despite leaving his steady role, Christopher is thrilled about moving on and his new role.
    “I’m anxious to see how they are going to use me. It’s a good role. I’m playing a Native American, that seems to be my thing and that’s cool,” said Christopher.

General Hospital: Tyler Christopher Is OUT !

SOD posted it, SID just said it was confirmed. Tyler Christopher was "let go" from GH on Friday. Not that I think he really wanted to stay...
End of the Cassadine connection?
Looks like it.
Tyler's pilot program will air on "ABC Family" starting August 15th-- "The Lying Game"

Tyler Christopher lands ABC Family Pilot

 
The Lying Game is a hour drama slated for AMC Family. He plays Detective Matthews, father of Garrett Matthews. The Lying Game is based on the book of the same name by Sara Shepard. The plot resolves around a teenage girl who’s killed and the long-lost twin sister who takes over the dead girl’s life to try and find her murderer. This is a recurring role, so not sure how it would effect his stint on General Hospital. Hopefully it will get picked up!!
