On General Hospital, Laura Collins is unraveling—and longtime fans can’t help but notice how far she’s drifted from the fearless woman who once defined the show. The Laura we’re watching in 2025 is a far cry from the powerhouse heroine who dominated daytime television in the early 1980s, and nowhere is that more evident than in her reaction to Dalton’s death.
Ever since Laura discovered Dalton’s dead body in the trunk of her car, she’s been living in constant fear. Sidwell has framed her for the professor’s murder, and the pressure has pushed Laura to the brink. She’s plagued by nightmares, haunted by visions of past enemies, and clearly spiraling under the weight of the threat hanging over her head.
What’s most troubling isn’t just Laura’s fear—it’s her desperation. Instead of taking control, she’s frozen. She’s unsure of what to do next, and that uncertainty has driven her straight into the arms of Sonny Corinthos for help. And that choice alone says everything about how much Laura has changed.
The Laura fans fell in love with would never have done this.
In the early 1980s, Laura Collins was fearless. She fought the mob head-on. She went on the run with Luke Spencer to bring down criminals because she believed mobsters were dangerous and needed to be stopped—not relied upon. That era of General Hospital wasn’t just iconic; it made the show the number-one soap opera in the country.
Luke and Laura became the most-watched daytime supercouple in television history, played by Anthony Geary and Genie Francis, whose chemistry launched them into pop culture immortality. Their adventures weren’t small-town scandals—they were epic.
One year after taking on the Port Charles mob, Luke and Laura faced something even bigger: the Cassadines. An international crime family. A doomsday weather machine capable of freezing the world. While the WSB stood by and did nothing, Laura didn’t hesitate. She carried a machine gun over her shoulder, Patty Hearst–style, and dared anyone to stand in her way.
That was Laura Collins—the ultimate badass.
Compare that to today’s Laura, paralyzed by fear because Sidwell claims to have leverage over her. The irony is glaring. Without a body, Sidwell has very little he can actually do. DNA on a gun means nothing if there’s no proof the weapon was used to kill anyone. The Laura of the 1980s would have recognized that instantly and shut this down before it ever escalated.
Instead, this Laura turns to Sonny—a mobster with a shoot-to-kill reputation—rather than trusting her own instincts or seeking smarter allies. Better guidance would have made all the difference. The situation Laura is in now doesn’t require panic; it requires strategy.
Even in her personal life, Laura’s softness is evident. Her marriage to Kevin Collins has brought her stability and happiness, but Kevin’s calm rationality isn’t what she needs right now. In fact, the problem might already be solved if Laura had access to someone like Kevin’s unhinged twin brother Ryan—or better yet, Luke Spencer himself. This blackmail plot wouldn’t have lasted five minutes under their watch.
The truth is simple: Laura Collins has forgotten who she is.
The woman who once took on mobsters, global threats, and international villains wouldn’t be shaking in fear over a body that no one can even produce. She would already have handled Sidwell, dismantled his leverage, and moved on with her life.
If General Hospital wants to honor its legacy, it’s time for Laura to channel her former self—because fast bad guys should still be afraid of her.
And right now, they’re not.
