Whether you love, despise, like, or could care less about some of the story lines on GH right now, no one can deny that General Hospital is at an outstanding high. There is so much excitement going on in Port Charles it is impossible to not be hooked. I totally understand the frustration of certain fan bases, because not all fans are going to be happy 100 percent of the time. But think about it, how would that even be possible? Right now, The Sonny and Brenda fans loathe the Sonny and Kate (SKate) pairing. The JaSam fans hate the fact that Liz is even breathing, and the baby switch story? Forget it! The writers are getting a lot of crap for a lot of things, but I really think it comes with the territory. Soap fans are dedicated and devoted, and basically throw their souls into the characters and couples they love most. No matter which story line is fueling your fire or feeding your passion for the show, we have to give credit to the writers and producers for keeping General Hospital and all it’s fans on the edges of their seats, and I am personally grateful for how the stories have been handled lately. In all the 20 years I have been watching this show, I have never witnessed such progression in the plots. For the first time, the stories aren’t being dragged on for decades. Take today’s episode for instance, Sam confronts Jason about the attack on McBain. In the past, this NEVER would have happened so fast. She would have hemmed and hawed, confided in someone else, Jason would have tried to hide it from Sam, someone would overhear something… so on and so forth. I LOVE the fact that they are just rolling right along, REALISTICALLY. I think that is what is keeping everyone on their toes. There is no down time. Even Heather tampering with the paternity, the big reveal that Jason is the daddy, didn’t take that long to come out. Sure we found out a few months ago that Franco was the baby’s Father, and we all speculated that Heather had something to do with it. But the truth came out fast and easy. It was enjoyable to watch Heather with the results directly, no beating around the bush, no guessing games. I really want to say how amazing Ron Carlivati and Frank Valentini and all the other cast and crew are making this show. The actors have been stellar and giving it their all. This is such a great time for General Hospital and we have the cast and crew to thank. Please keep supporting our show!
Sam has great instincts. Her women’s intuition was spot on when she felt in her heart that her son was not gone, and it turned out he was healthy and safe and is now back in her arms. Whens he finds out the truth, that Jason is the true Father of Danny, she will know she was right about that too. We all know that Steve Burton is on a new life journey and has no plans or indication of returning any time soon. But that does not mean a thing in the soap world. Jason Morgan’s body was not found and he could very well be alive and just unable to contact Sam for any reason. Sam has made it clear to her loved ones that she really believes Jason is alive. She looked to her P.I. partner and best friend, Spinelli for help along with her new friend John McBain. John is supporting her instinct and wants to help her keep the hope alive and find Jason. I love this. I love that they have made Jason have a dramatic exit, yet open for the character to return. Whether it will be Steve Burton himself to reprise the role sometime down the road, or a recast sooner than later, either way, I am with Sam. I believe Jason is alive.
