  1. Hi there, Lovefest!

    *hangs head in shame*

    ...I came to steal clips. :( I heard myTracy and myLucky shared scenes yesterday, and even though I no longer watch GH, I thought that the combination was too good to pass up. So, it figures that the link wouldn't work. Glad to see my Tracy fans are still hanging in there. Hopefully it won't be a long drought with the up-coming annual you-know-what for you-know-who.

    LMAO at Alexis and Diane appear to be boring! Poor Nancy Lee Grahn!

    Edit: Megaupload worked! Thanks nex!

    *le sigh* Why does Jane have to be so damned entertaining. The expressions on Jane's face alone made those scenes worth watching (as well as getting to see smiling sarcastic Lucky). Oh to have more Lucky and Tracy scenes. She could give Lucky his snark back.

  2. I wish I would have known in advance...I could have done a play by play...

    There was no nookie. They stayed in the bar. I get the feeling that the editors got slash happy with the scenes. Lots of good talky stuff, with Tracy blurting out that she loved Luke, and a lot of musing about their marriage. I have HORRIBLE retention for dialogue.

    I'm hoping it continues tomorrow, but I wouldn't be surprised if it didn't, and I wouldn't be surprised if scenes we want to see are sitting on the bottom of an editing room floor somewhere (okay, I know that's not how they edit soaps, but I said it for effect).

  3. smirks, thanks for the video feedback. I was kind of worried it was going to be too simple, and yet, when I started it, I had no idea what to do with all the Ghost Alan clips I had. There's really not that many until you decide to put them to a short, only 50 second song. Then it's like, "AHH! Which ones do I use?!?" :lol:

    Thanks for sharing your vid here. I actually did already on this page (post 6340), heh, but your vid is extra special and deserves to be shared more than once. I've left tons of comments at GHVT, but again...You are amazing!!!! Now, got any ideas for a Tracy video? 'Cause you so have to make one.

    2.jpg

    Really makes you want to watch the vid, huh? :lol:

    Well, the good news I suppose is that I slept through today's GH while recovering from margarita induced alcohol poisoning, so I guess I didn't miss much other than Guza apparently *gasp* assassinating another character. Joy!

    And Mrs. Q, thanks for posting up links to my vid. You're always so quick to scoop me! LOL! And thanks for your generous feedback and praise on GHVT. Really, a nice big feedback is like a dream come true for a vidder. Yes, I have tonnes of ideas for a Tracy vid now that I've lost my clips. I have this great idea for a video leading up to LuNacy sex, but it might only be appreciated here. And yeah, I know all about those stupid youtube icons. Heck, it's gotten to the point that I will re-edit a video just to get a better screenshot. (PS - the one it takes is always the exact middle frame of your vid, so make sure you have a really cool scene at the middle of your vid. Blinking...just can't be helped though.

  4. Mrs. Q! I flove the banner. I really flove the banner. I totally like the sound of Geary & Elliot : attorneys at law.

    I also think your mvid is fan-freakin-tastic. I was totally feeling the song choice on that one. I don't know what exactly it is about the song that makes it rock so much, but there's something delightfully tongue-in-cheek funny about it, and also there's something about it that's smug and creepy and caper-y...yes, caper-y, it's in the fangirl dictionary. It fits Alan's mood, and the storyline all at once. I love the simplicity of the editing as well. It just moves along really nicely, so the storyline and the clip choices become the main focus of the vid, and since you did a great job picking out the clips, it's just wonderful.

    Speaking of vids in general, I'd also like to pimp my own Alan tribute vid (real, live Alan...not Ghost!Alan) (Youtube link). Not as much Tracy as I would have liked, but I made sure she got in there a fair bit. Alan affected so many characters, and it's freakin' hard to find living Alan and Tracy clips.

    *goes back into curled up fetal position* Too many margaritas last night....way too many margaritas. Don't want to talk about it.

  5. As far as Luke and Tracy having sex offscreen, I don't think it was happening while Laura was there.

    Since the verbal references have just started, I tend to think the sex has just started.

    The way TG/JE played it, so awkwardly, in fact...I'd hazard a guess and say it's possible they've only done it once or so....and maybe thought they were going too fast, or were too overwhelmed when they did it, and likely took to sleeping in the same bed only, but decided to take it slow in terms of the sex.

    I can see them having that conversation, even though two years is slow enough and they are married.....

    I hate that ANY Lacy stuff happened offscreen, we hardly see them as it is.

    BUT, I may be in the minority in that I absolutely LOVED the conversations yesterday and the way TG/JE played it.

    So very tender with each other. Hmm, maybe that first time offscreen was the cut scenes from the day Luke was supposed to try and get rid of Alan? I doubt it was onscreen then either but I bet we got a shot of them going upstairs together or talking about it anyway.

    The next day's scenes were just too suspect not to have something gone on the day before, if that makes any sense.

    Anyway...I thought the Lacy stuff yesterday was good. I liked it.

    And progress offscreen, while sucky, is better than none at all. RIGHT? Better than the one step forward, two back, kind of stuff we've dealt with for almost TWO YEARS.

    I'll take some offscreen stuff as long as the onscreen stuff makes reference to it, like we got yesterday.

    I agree with all of this, and I'm so glad ILTQ got here first to type all of it, because she said it better than I ever could. As much as I hate bailing out the writers, because they do indeed suck, this is the feeling I got from the scenes yesterday, and whatever has been going on recently with them with the will. In fact, I think that this is when everything started. I definitely don't think there was any LuNacy action before Alan's death, but something about them conspiring together drew them together and made them giddy...and frisky...and more appreciative. And I think that's when whatever has transpired started. And the way they were awkward about it yesterday gave me the impression that either it's a very new thing, or maybe they're 'trying' but it hasn't quite happened yet. Just my two cents.

    Interesting stuff about the rape and who knew what. I wasn't around then, and since I was a teen during the whole 90's rape reveal thing (which was completely the right age to be, because of course I was introduced to GH by a friend's mother who was a huge Luke and Laura fan, so it had the right affect...sort of a "wait a minute! You said they were a supercouple, but he raped her?!!? ) But I always wondered who knew what back then.

    I really hope the rape reveal redux doesn't cause any bumps for LuNacy. Quite frankly, I'd rather them not revisit it at all. It doesn't matter to me whether Lulu knows, and I don't like that they are painting Scott as some big evil villain who will tell poor Lulu the truth. But oh well...there will be Kin and Tony and Jane scenes...I'll just forget that anyone else exists in the storyline.

  6. LOL, Smirks - did you ever see The Crying Child? It comes on around Halloween.

    Kin & Finola Hughes (Anna Scorpio) - they actually made a sweet couple.

    Nex - go to Soap Opera Central and chekc out the Live Thread - or any of Smirks threads today!

    Here is a link: http://boards.soapcentral.com/showthread.php?t=241222

    No, I have never seen that, but I will look for it next Hallowe'en. Scotty and Anna, huh? *ponders the possibilities*

    LOL about "check out any of Smirks' threads"....I do like spreading the LuNacy love at SOC.

    Ms Q, I agree with your synopsis, especially your WTH moment, and yet, I don't care because I could not be happier about it...it's one of those "news to me moments, but it was good news!

    I'm still basking in the joy that was today's LuNacy/Q's scenes.

  7. Can't wait to see the show. Unfortunately, I have to wait til morning.

    My husband watching with me would be a buzz killer.

    It's bad enough he asked me why I recorded "Hoot" on the DVR and I had to mumble, "Because Kin Shriner has a 2 minute part in it". Good thing he doesn't really listen to me anymore after all these years. :D

    That's okay. I once watched a very inappropriate late night b-movie on Space (the Canadian version of the Sci Fi channel) because I saw Kin in it. I believe it was called Subliminal Seduction, or some such. Very inappropriately funny.

  8. Squeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!

    No words, just....

    SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!

    Umm...you'll see when you watch.

    PS - You're going to be mad at Ghost!Alan, but Lunacy?

    SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!

    Edited to add: BEST. EPISODE. EVER!!!!

    OMG! The squeeeing! The laughing! You'll die from one of them!

  9. Oh no! I'm glad Fey's fine, but MinervaFan, you have a hell of a way of breaking bad news! I almost snorted my Coke...and since my Coke comes in red cans and I usually drink it, that's strange.

    No TQ today. Very bad show. Stay away, unless you like dialogue stupid enough to make you bash your head through a wall.

  10. I love coming here...

    LadyAshton, I love you! All of these clips are just so much more exciting for me because I wasn't watching GH back then, and it's just amazing to be able to see a small fraction of what I missed. I actually get more excited about new clips than a months worth of GH. Speaks volumes, doesn't it?

    And THE PICTURES!!! thanks pinkpopsicle !

    Did anyone notice that Jane is sitting on a dolly that says "General Hospital Props"...photographer has a dry sense of humor, no?

    If I would have known there would have been pictures, my new banner may have been different *shows off new banner*. But well, it's pretty damned irresistable the way it is. I heart them.

  11. Ahemmm....that is not Sebastian singing in that video. What did they do to my song?!?!

    I liked the video, Mrs, Q. Nice use of flashies and replays and timing and all that. Very stylish.

    Awww....Christmas photos. Those lucky little Dever girls. They get to hang out with all my favorite soap stars all day.

  12. Ahh...as a Canadian my Spanish is unfortunately limited to what I learned from "Sesame Street" and "Encino Man" .

    But as someone who taught a foreign language...I see bargaining roleplaying in your student's future for lesson 2 or 3...make it a game to see who can make the most money or sell the most goods or whatever by the end of class. Could be fun.

    Oh, and that spumor...so vague I wouldn't even worry about it. I mean, TIIC does so many concrete things on a daily basis that ire me, so that I don't even worry myself with vague spumors anymore.

  13. Awww...you go and be demanding, Ms. Q! I understand where you're coming from! I want more too... but I'm happy about shallow victories, like Luke talkin' dirty to our girl, and smiling Alan, and 5 vets who are never on in one scene at the same time on a non-holiday.

    I love the hi-rez. Who's taking a bet that Luke sneakily tries to peer down that blouse?

    Also, I flove the second shot, as I have never seen either Luke nor Tracy so expressionless in my life. You can tell that weddings really 'wow' them. Are those life-like mannequins they are using for stand ins?

    PS - What subjects are you trying to make exciting? I am a teacher at heart...and one day I'll be licensed too.

    *waves to TracyLuv and makes a note about LoveThatTracy being the same person*

  14. It has come to my attention that I have been completely ignoring the Lovefest, and thusly missing out on all the fun.

    *hangs head*

    It also comes to my attention that I should be very angry at one Mr. Luke Spencer from Ms. Q's recap. I will have to watch that scene again...I will admit to being somewhat entralled by a combination of the idea of Luke tucking Tracy into bed...which sent my mind other places, and being really, really amused by the look on Ghost!Alan's face. He seems so incredibly bemused that he's freaking her out...like "you thought a little thing like death would stop me from tormenting you for the next 20 years?!? Think again Tracy. *teehee*"

    I agree about the more Ghost!Alan, but I also enjoyed the vet cast integration...even if it was about...*channels Spinelli* "the chair-bound one".

  15. *Ducks behind furniture.*

    Will I be stoned? Four and a half more hours til the challenge is done.... I can't do it anymore. Haha...I guess I do live at SOC. I should get my mail there.

    Okay, so any ideas on what my pennance for this should be? Videos? Banners? Icons? I feel that I've been slacking in my Tracy allegiance, mostly do to the fact that I haven't had my computer, and my 8 year old machine doesn't really like the lovefest. But that's rectified now (albeit, I've lost my entire collection of video clips and screencaps...but hey, it works). Anyway, I totally had like two weeks of Lovefest to read through yesterday.

    Very belated congratulations on your wedding, Deb.

    Oh, what I miss when I'm away too long....

  16. You know what....

    I come with much love but...

    ...just....don't watch today.

    I have seen it.

    It doesn't matter who you're a fan of. Even Luke and Laura fans. We all lose. But especially Tracy fans.

    What a farce. I'm disgusted. Appalled. Disappointed. Not surprised, but....*sigh* it was humiliating to me as a GH fan.

    When people look back at GH, today will be known as shark-jumping day.

  17. Hey Lovefesters! (Hee!)

    No Computer and No Tracy make Homer something something. (which makes absolutely no sense unless you've seen that episode of the Simpsons)

    I've been trying to get on the lovefest but conveniently forgot my password until today, when it hit me like lightning.

    WTF?!? Luke's an ass. Is there ANYONE in town he HASN'T seen who isn't named Tracy. For pete's sake, he even saw Diego today. He even saw Lucky. Luke NEVER sees his own son. And now he's off to save Skye. Absolutely flucking ridiculous. The only way to get a man's attention on GH is to get in trouble with another man. Case in point:

    a) Luke and his harem: Holly, Skye, Laura....

    B) Carly. Sonny didn't care. Then she started dating Jax.

    c) The evil hexangle known as Maxie/Lucky/Liz/Jason/Sam/Ric/Alexis and Manny

    d) Dillon/Georgie/Diego

    And if a girl doesn't need saving...*cough*Tracy, Robin, Anna, Monica, etc*cough*...well, it's off to the backburner with you then.

    @$%@$%& male headwriter bullshit...*mutters*

    Why are people pitting Skye against Tracy? That's just silly talk. Skye's not the enemy.

  18. SHE'S ON TODAY!!!!

    Hair: Curly, but not as good as before.

    Wearing: Red jacket...kinda neat...a little flowery, over black. (not a skirt...pants...silly me)

    With: Edward, freeloader!Lulu, and possibly a podperson dressed as her son...the younger one. Older one mentioned!

    Tone: Tracy may just be the best mother ever.

  19. Yay! Coming to you from an 8 year old computer that hates this board and won't let me sign in for two consecutive seconds, I proudly present....ME!!!

    So....favorites:

    Hair: Curls, followed closely by super-ultra-straight Hotel Fire Hair...and third would be the longer way she has it now.

    Ensemble I like a good suit over the drapery. I can't think of anything in particular, except the red one she wore when she dropped Dillon off at the Q's. It said, "I'm busy, I'm stylish, I'm rich, and I just might eat your baby for dinner."

    Line/speech Honestly, I love the two times I've seen her come home to the Q mansion...the first time when she insulted Lois and Justus and Brenda/Jax/Sonny, and the second time when she went down the whole family line. For serious stuff...the first banishment I saw in 93...those were riveting scenes.

    Acting partner Refuse to choose. Just...can't do it. Love Tracy and Luke. Love Tracy and the Q's...inclusive...even Emily and Jason are strangely tolerable when Tracy is around. Jane makes everyone a good acting partner.

    Scene One scene? I am so screwed. If I were on a computer built within the last 8 years, I would go through my Q cds and watch all my Tracy clips...but I cannot, so by default, they are all tied.

    Interesting about the Eulogy...I think I actually like the shorter version better. It's more to the point, but how odd that they wrote more and ended up cutting some.

  20. Figures the only day I am away from the tv at 3, Tracy is on. Sounds like some good scenes actually. Lunacy apears to have gone a hundred thousand times better than I thought it would. Maybe the writers do actually 'ship' Luke and Tracy after all. I was expecting yelling and blood and vengeance...not praise. I think Luke pimped our girl a little bit. I am also curious to see how the Edward/Tracy scenes pan out. I know that Jed Allen's Edward was a little more touchy feely (not in that way, you sick, sick people) with Tracy than John Ingle's Edward, so I am really interested in seeing how well that played out.

    But I am tired and I just lifted three tons of Swedish furniture down the stairs, so it might have to wait til tomorrow...Tracy or no Tracy.

    TGIF indeed! I can't wait to spend my weekend with a puzzled look on my face and an Allen key in my hand.

  21. MinervaFan, those are the best spoilers I have ever heard! Thank you for writing that. GH was really depressing for me today, and I needed that.

    REAL SPOILER BABBLE...

    Leslie? Spoiler? *looks outside window for flying porcine objects*

    Leslie and Tracy, in a scene together? *checks west for rising sun*

  22. Where to start?

    Ms Q, LOVE the banners, especially the small sectional ones. Out of the big ones my favorite was #3 of the first batch asIdon'treallylikethepolaroidsbutI'msurethat'sjustme. *looks shifty* And my ever so weak contribution to fonts is that the font should be white or one of the darker blues on the banner. What's this site going to be called, anyway? Site name here...not so catchy.

    I have to check out those fics...they definitely sound interesting.
