From the gossip thread at Soapdish--major grain of salt... If you're wondering why Laura is being brought back when Luke isn't there, the answer is simple. The chill between both stars has grown to glacier proportions.The only way they could have Laura return was during Luke's absence. Which suits both performers just fine.

Lainey--thought you might like to see this pic of CH from the emmy's. She looks great! http://sweetestgoodbyes.org/gallery/displa...&fullsize=1 http://sweetestgoodbyes.org/gallery/displa...&fullsize=1 From SID scans...

Woo hoo internet is back. It was one of our four routers or some such thing. I was about to have a heart attack if I couldn't get online. TnL---IF that is true about Laura finding out about Tracy, how could that happen if it is only short term. I would actually think it could be a great storyline. I would love to see her find out, to see Laura pissed off or wanting to be alone for a while and get her life back, to see Tracy go back to scheming with Scotty or something to make sure LnL don't reunite, etc... IT could be a great ansty story for Luke to go through, etc. However, if it is short term, then I don't see all that happening at all. Hmmm...could that spoiler be wrong? Guess we will find out more. All I know is hopefully JE will get some good material.

bsg come in the breakroom

breakroom now? 6:45 pm central for like 30 minutes anyone?

She is sooo pathetic whining in the media how nobody wants her long term. I think she is going to come back in a dream like thing to help lulu through her breakdown. TG is not even back.

WTMF is this? http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20080711/ap_en_...e_genie_francis Genie Francis is coming back August 26th for a mother daughter story with lulu for a few episodes? At least Luke isn't around at all! Surely this is like a lulu breakdown or dream maybe? From SON: http://www.soapoperanetwork.com/soaps/g ... ehomegenie Genie Francis Brings Laura Back to 'GH' Friday, July 11, 2008 5:00 PM | By Errol Lewis (SoapOperaNetwork.com) -- Beginning Tuesday, August 26, look for actress Genie Francis to reprise her iconic role of Laura Spencer on the daytime soap opera "General Hospital." "This is a short visit," Francis said in an interview with the The Associated Press on Friday. "It's a mother-daughter story. Years ago when I started playing the character as a 14-year-old girl, it was a mother-daughter story, only I was the daughter. So it's kinda cool this is full circle. It's nice to come back for visits. 'General Hospital' is my home." Francis is referring to her storyline with on-screen daughter Lulu Spencer, played by Julie Berman since 2005. After being cured by a supposed miracle drug of Robin (Kimberly McCullough) and Patrick's (Jason Thompson) in 2007, Laura returned to the catatonic state she had been in for years since Laura couldn't deal with the reality of killing her father. Lulu is expected to have a breakdown in the coming weeks due to the recent death of former love, Logan Hayes (Josh Duhon), who she killed on Monday's episode of the soap. Lulu was defending herself against Logan after he attacked her enemy/co-worker, Maxie Jones (Kirsten Storms) in the Crimson offices across the street. She will go on the run with Johnny (Brandon Barash) in order to avoid police the week of July 21. "I would stay on, but 'General Hospital' honestly doesn't seem to want that relationship with this character at the moment," said Francis. "They want little short doses during sweeps periods. It's not entirely up to me. I'm thrilled and delighted my audience stands behind me. If they didn't, you can be sure I wouldn't get to come back for these visits." Francis hit it big in the 1980's with her on-screen romance with Luke Spencer, played by Anthony Geary. The couples marriage on the ABC soap in 1981 remains the most watched televised event in daytime history with 30 million viewers. Elizabeth Taylor guest-starred in the episode as villainess Helena Cassadine. "General Hospital" airs Weekdays on ABC. Weeknights on SOAPnet. Check local listings.

Oh yeah--booked my ticket! Am coming to NY!! But on a bad note....not a good day in my house with business stuff. Guess the economy had to catch up sometime. Two big clients--gone! Yeah...maybe in like 30 minutes or so! I just came in from swimming and need to change and do a few things around here. Wanna shoot for like 5:15ish central time 6:!5ish NY time? Anyone else around for that later?

Just bumping the thread. Guess Tracy's little appearance next week isn't enough to warrant cable guide mentions or mentions on Soaps.com. Argghhh! Should be used to it by now... I did read that from SB appearance at fan club weekend, that Monica would be in the park with him, jake and cam and elizabeth. Jason leaves and then MOnica talks to Liz. Guess that is coming up in a couple weeks maybe as it has been taped I guess. So Rachel--guess there is some monica coming up. Guess she is out of rehab or just on an outing! Hope she doesn't find a flask in the park and get tempted so they throw her back in!

BSG mama--You in NY August 8-11?

Okay guys..it is 11:50 central time...breakroom anyone???? I am going in... I see remos, nex and BSG on the thread.... If you pop in and I am not saying anything I might be in the AU breakroom so post to the threqad if that happens. It happened to me last night.

There you are!!! I was wondering where you were! Catch you tomorrow!

For MS. Q--This is reliable insider at SD.. Hey Scrubs/Alexis--someone earlier said Tracy was going to be on next week. It takes so little to make me happy! Yup. I dont have my stuff with me, but I think she is with Lulu. Congrats -Scrubs/alexis So looks like Tracy is on next week. Probably only one day but at least she lives!!

I did Funny, once..got some sun. But the one who wanted to go, got bored cause there was seaweed in the water and he was grossed out and was whining to leave the whole time! LadyA sorry I missed you! It is 9:04 central...too late for you? Breakroom for a bit?

la la la la talking to myself all day on this thread! Funny!--I am finally catching up on all your fics woman! Loved the ending couple chapters of Spencermaine (yes I am that far behind) and am starting the Forgotten Birth now!!! Awesome!!!

Remos--I liked that a lot! Love the TQ/Claudia dynamic!

Whre the heck is everyone today???? It is 6:40 central time...anyone around for a quick chat in the breakroom?

Awww..finally catching up...love the fic Ms.Q!!! So sweet!!

Some more from the earlier anon who said TQ is on next week Not sure if my last post posted or not as I got an error message.. Do you know if Tracy is on next week or in the next couple weeks and if she plays any part in Lulu going crazy story? Will she try to find Luke? Thanks. I was the one who answered you earlier. Yes and she is helping Lulu and she will mention Luke.

Remos--What about Trevor and Tracy having some sort of revelations discussion...like discussing their pasts (not starting out to be all chummy chummy, but since they are trapped together, maybe somehow he asks her about her mob past and discusses his past connections, etc?) Could be interesting...maybe he knew Tracy back in the mob days during the City and admired her from afar or something?

I would guess it is right...she should be on one episode at least next week. Remos--where you be??? Hey Nex! Two more weeks!

I don't know. they answered my question, then some piggybackers asked a few things but they didn't answer. Someone could have been just spouting stuff off, but people don't usually do that regarding Tracy--they don't bother...

Where the heck is everyone today??? So your spoiler ho is back doing her duty.... So I just an answer from an anon on SD If there is any lurking insider...can anyone tell me if Tracy is on this week at all or next week? Next week. She's funny and helpful. Hope that is true...no doubt about Lulu...trying to find out what day... Gotta catch up on the blog, fics and the like... I will give the blog some action in a bit...

Morning everyone! I am home sweet home and on my own computer again! Yay! My husband messed wth me screen though so everything is small...ugghhh..but he did fix my printer, so I will forgive him. Found out that since I was gone, his best friend we stayed with in chicago a few weeks ago is getting divorced, and my friend here who always professes to have this perfect marriage is about to have it all come crashing down on her because her husband left her a letter saying if she didn't find a way to pay off her bills in the next two months he was leaving her. Nice!! I see this from SD.. Tracy is concerned about lulu and thinks she needs a vacation Which may be from wubs...or may be from SD that wubs took I dont' know. I can't wait to catch up on everyone's fics/blog, etc. I just picked up my dog from the boarding place and now have to run out to get my stitches out (from my gum surgery). I will check back this afternoon. Hope to chat later! Missed you guys. Anyone seen or heard from ladyA?
