After watching today's program a lot of thoughts came to mind as to the future direction of GH. Like you Maryanne I'm thinking is the end of the Claudia s/l and the subsequent cover up be the low point under the current regime and they have to finally have to show real consequences for Sonny and Jason? I know some are laughing at this and things will not change and continue as they have for the last few years. But let's look at the current situation.
Sonny instead of taking Claudia out after the party privately publicly announces what she done in front of the who's who in Port Charles. He orders her men to take her, she pulls out a gun and takes Carly hostage. There are what 50 witnesses at least to this.
Now Carly and baby turn up safe and sound from the kidnapping and Claudia is nowhere to be found. Already Carly, Jason, Samantha, Sonny and Jax aleady know Micheal killed her. But this group will keep their motuhs shut. The real problems I see is how what happened to Claudia not be an issue for her brother Johnny and Dominic/Dante. Dante today has already declared that Sonny was responsible for Claudia death and the body isn't even cold yet. Whether she was in the wrong or not I don't think Johnny is going to rest until he finds out what happened to his sister. Are Sonny and Jason simply going to state she disappeared after the car wreck. The henchman who questioned Jason today about burning down the cabin where Carly gave birth and Claudia killed gets burned down in a rainstorm was right. Its a red flag. Maxie seeing a blood red handprint on Sonny's chest today. All the witnesses to the Sonny/Claudia confrontation, Claudia/Carly kidnapping and all of a sudden Carly is okay and Caludia is nowhere to be found? Robin's statement concerning being tired of the violence in Port Charles and Sonny always being in the center of it. There's defintely some smoke here - but who would take action? Just about everyone is compromised to some extent.
Dante is the first choice but have no doubt the revelation about Sonny being his father will come out before he finally arrests Sonny, then what does he do. Lulu - now knowing Dante is an undercover cop intent on taking down Sonny and the consequences it will have to her relatives and friends, what does she do. Maxie's seeing what she saw today will eventually involve Spinelli - if Maxie is threatened with what she has seen today would he assist in being down Sonny/Jason. What will Micheal do - will his upcoming romance somehow caouse conflict with his desire to follow in Sonny's path? That leaves Robin for now. Now that she is a mother she may have a different perspective on Sonny, enough to motivate her to take action to lessen the mob violence. The next couple of months will tell.
If the current regime continues on the current path, however GH should rightfully be removed from daytime tv and made into a nighttime soap. The show is now way too dark for daytime.

: Just to warn you, Claudia dies today in a
: VERY violent way. After helping Carly
: deliver her baby, Claudia attempted to steal
: the baby away, placing her in a basket and
: walking out the door. Michael walks in and,
: no joke, picks up a baseball and bashes
: Claudia in the head. The basket with the
: baby falls to the floor, and Claudia is
: dead, on the cabin floor, eyes open, blood
: running down her face from her shatttered
: skull.
:
: I HATED Claudia, and could talk easily about
: all the disturbing things I wanted to see
: done to her. But the actuality of it was
: brutal, ugly, and extremely inappropriate
: for Daytime
:
: I totally agree with everything that you
: said, but I think this show being very
: disterbing is an understatement. It was way
: beyond that.I can't even discribe how
: horrified I was at seeing those scenes
: today. I think the thing that got to me the
: most was how Sonny and everyone else is
: going to handle the situation. I mean, I too
: hated Claudia, and I'm glad she's gone, but
: I wish that her exit was something that
: didn't have to do with the mob. The sad
: thing is, every time that something like
: this happens, everyone starts talking about
: how dangerous Sonny and Jason are to
: everyone around them, but yet the next
: minute, nobody is doing anything to stop the
: violence in that town. Could this time be
: the time when someone does something about
: it? I'm hoping that the show will go in a
: completly different direction with putting
: the mob on the backburner, but I doubt it. I
: especially hope that if nothing else, Sonny
: moves out of the mob. I would like for him
: to do it for Michael's sake, but I don't
: think I see that happening in the near
: future.
