remos

Yeah... when all is said and done I want Tracy on screen, even if we have to deal with the ewcbo. BUT if the choose LnL over LuNacy I think I'm gone. I'll be heading out the door behind Lainey. What good is investing in a couple to see it destroyed then pick another until that is destroyed? I've got better things to do with my life. I haven't seen it today but apparently ewcbo smirked after Lulu left the room. I'm wondering if the discussion isn't awake vs. imagination Laura, but rather angelic vs. malicious Laura. Wouldn't she be more interesting if she had an agenda and only pretended to be sweetness and light? Perhaps the Cassidines did more to her than we think. Anything has got to be more interesting than the Angel.

Umm... how can a lot depend on someone who isn't even on contract? It is nice to see Tracy's name again. One more week without her... this is getting tedious.

Out of curiosity... Michele Val Jean From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Michele Val Jean (b. 1950s) is an American television writer on the ABC Daytime soap opera General Hospital. Val Jean made television history when in 2000 she was promoted, alongside Elizabeth Korte, to the post of Head Writer; making her the first African American in the history of daytime television serials to hold the post. Val Jean wrote the critically acclaimed 1998 re-visitation of Luke Spencer's rape of Laura Spencer, the rape of Elizabeth Webber, Luke and Laura Spencer's 2006 wedding, and the 2007 rape of Jasper Jacks.

Who knows, perhaps her association with MB will encourage him to put a word in - since he's one of the 'inside' power brokers. MW has been pretty consistent with her praise of JE/LuNacy. It's nice to see. Things are changing for every other member of the cast - hopefully they will start to change for Tracy too.

Finally, some one who can actually tell us some concrete dates. I like the delving into the Spencers bit as well... it's long overdue. They have always been my favourite family. Perhaps Aunt Bobbie will be allowed out of the closet a bit more.

And what level might that be??? Oy, those LnLers really feel they have some god-given right to be superior or something. Time's up folks, your days are over. I woke up to this on the IL: Since it is so quiet in here, and it is so early....could you drop anything at all on Tracy or Luke's return? Any idea what week Luke shows back up on screen? Is Tracy the only one who believes Lulu about Laura? Thanks! Who overhears Lulu confess to Laura this week or do we not really see who does? Thanks. Info is scattered on this which is why I think you aren't getting the details. I will tell you what I know. Luke is back a tad bit earlier than planned. Tracy is going to be very insecure about the new developments with Laura. She does believe Lulu. However, she is not the only one. Luke will be conflicted but he truly does love Tracy. She may love him enough to let him go...but will he let her? And does Laura love him enough to do the same? This sounds like a good story to me and speaks to the spoiler we had some time ago that said Tracy offers Luke a divorce but Luke refuses. I like the idea of Tracy being magnanimous while ewcbo is proprietary. It would certainly keep with the character developments of each.

Oh, I completely agree. JE/Tracy can be alone, but I doubt she would have the emotional investment or the joy she currently has if he were gone. And with the numbers being so low - and the fact that ewcbo doesn't bring in ratings - I doubt TPTB are that stupid. LuNacy has a huge following, regardless of what the ewcbo/LnL fans claim. That added to the fact that TG isn't going anywhere, JE isn't going anywhere, and GF isn't getting a contract, I think LuNacy is in a great place. Where's the story with LnL.... nothing. Now, LnL/LuNacy - that as enormous storyline potential and currently there is only one Mrs. Spencer.

Hey everyone, I'm back. Guess what I can do: I made an Apple Crisp in an outdoor oven made of a cardboard box, tin foil and heated with briquettes! It was delicious. I am so ready to go camping again. About the SOD preview, meh.... Ms. Q brilliantly outlined why we can't put any stock in this, but besides that 'new chapter'? That can mean anything, and WHO wants to be the first person to put in print that LnL are over for good? No one is going to put their job on the line to say that, so they will doctor their information any way they need to. The media are the ones who are still pushing LnL, not ABCD. I'm on the fence... part of me is LuNacy FF, the other part is JE FF. Either way I don't think JE would be around much longer after a split from TG's Luke. Remember what she said in that interview "don't care [what happens] as long as I do it with him." That is not a person who is going to wait for the next love interest to come along, she will be gone. So... do you think TPTB are really going to risk their two top vets over the nostalgia for some fans around someone they have no intention of putting on contract? I'm thinking no. It will all play out and JE will have some great stuff. In the meantime Que sera sera. It was a fabulous weekend, but I'm toast. I'll check in with you again tomorrow after I've slept. (Hooked, still no change.)

Love that!!! Off to a Guide Camp with only leaders - this is when we have our real fun! Hopefully we will have dates for Tracy/LuNacy when I return on Sunday. Have a good weekend all. I know I will (sans familia) . EDIT Leaving shortly, but I wanted to add an observation. Have any of you noticed that the conversations between Lulu and Laura referencing the need for the family to know seem only to extend to Lucky and Nicholas. Everything is about 'the boys' not Luke.... just an observation from someone who is not watching closely but has picked up on that. One more hint that Tracy is not a secret from Laura. Okay, now I'm seriously off to hit the highway... chow bellas

HOLD THE PRESS Someone find a copy of SID (Hooked, distributers making their way to you yet?) and find out if this is true. SID did top 100 couples: 98 Stephan and Laura 93 Scott and Dominique 91 Luke and Tracy 89 Edward and Lila Also apparently SOD has a Tony interview - TG once said he only did interviews when he was happy. Don't know what this one is about. Whoever buys SID could you buy SOD too? My the time it gets to my country isn't a week behind you.

Well, to be fair that early dialogue was quite ambiguous. Remember we went over it and over it to figure out who Laura was talking about that knew. Other boards did the same thing. I think Guza was playing all of us - and it worked. The conversation around whether or not ewcbo was really awake was quite extensive. As a writer I give him props. And since ewcbo doesn't have a contract, the eventual outcome will be Laura leaving but it might be nice if she wished Luke well in his new life and left, taking a chunk of Scott with her.

Morning all... Love those kiddie pictures, TL. Very funny, but the baby is my favourite. You'd think someone as beautiful as Jane would produce something more... um, attractive. I'm settling in for a non-Tracy fortnight. But when Lukey returns we had better be getting some serious TQ action. These past 4 months have been ridiculous, and yes - we are coming up to the 4th month mark of the LuNacy drought. That's 1/3 of the year!!! I don't want TQ with anyone else, but I wish they would send Tracy off with Luke rather than having her as wallpaper or once a month for a scene or two. I don't think she has accumulated even half and hour of actual airtime in these past 4 months. Not amused...

Night all, I know I'm late to the game tonight. I didn't even watch today because I thought those spoilers about her not being on were true, so I'm watching Youtube right now to see what I missed. Edward just gave an amazing speach about the damage the mob has done to the town and Lulu - not comedic - it was right on the money (except he blames the wrong killer, but hardly anyone knows Lulu was telling the truth). Scene 3 I believe Nex, it's worth including IMO. Scene 4 starts off with the long awaited moment between Monica and Liz at the hospital. Another Q. Lainey/Lisa - Diane is hilarious in this scene as she goes into Lawyer mode to convince Kate not to marry Sonny. Mock trial with Maxie as stenographer. Scene 5 - begins with Monica again; gangs all back in the court room to hear the verdict including wallpaper-Tracy Scene 6 - Mute Tracy is shocked, gets up (with a hair swing I might add) and storms out of court looking disgusted. Ed and Piph shake hands - don't know what's going on there... Scene 7 - Lusam hottub, Hooked

Lovely job, Lisa. Helps the drought. So, after watching Lisa's videos another one popped up (you know how Youtube gives you four more with similar interests) and one was Spencer Family opening. I had to laugh. Even in a vid featuring ewcbo the clips of Lulu and Luke all involved Tracy. I see on SD that no one is spilling jack about Tracy. We know she's around so they must be playing the LuNacy story really close to the vest. Wonder what it's going to be... I don't see any confirmation that TG is back in the studio however. Perhaps later in the week he will appear - although there have been reports of closed sets. Curiosity will get the better of me.

Loving the spoilers Hooked, so good to have you back on ho duty. HATE that ewcbo is being refered to as "Luke's wife" though. She hasn't been that for well over a decade, long before Luke because Mr. Tracy.

Just dropped in for a few. I'm watching Practical Magic with the Diva - such a chick flick. This is the good thing about my daughter coming of age. I see no Tracy so I didn't miss anything today. I'm looking forward to tomorrow. I can't wait until Luke returns to get Tracy back on air (how sad is that... really...) Speaking of Trash, I thought for sure some of you would have howled at my last chapter as I mention Lord Larry himself.... are you guys even reading anymore ? I'm trying to be better with the blog. Whomever did the trial stuff was brilliant.

Hey everyone, It's minutes before noon and I'm off with the screamers to a homeschool do. Don't know if I'll be back in time to recap (assuming TQ is even on today). If someone else is watching live could you do the honours? Nothing for spoilers, except that the ewcbo is zonked this Friday when Lulu and the boys go to see her.

Yes, we must keep up the pressure. TPTB have to know that Tracy deserves more - and so do her fans. Just spent the last half hour talking with Hooked. They have power back already but not Internet. She's bored out of her tree but at least she can talk to people.

Absolutely brilliant! Truly one of your best.

Afternoon all. Hubby just returned with my vodka and he's taking the kids to the splashpad, so I'm good for the afternoon. I also had a nap so I'm raring to go. I come bearing spoilers - sort of... I'd also like to say that people really might enjoy the dynamic coming between Laura/Tracy/Luke/Scotty when Tony returns. It should be an interesting storyline. It's one of the things I'm most interested in watching coming up. Take a look, it's the quad we might actually be interested in. And they are all vets! (Namely our favourite vet and her satelites.) Ms.Q, as pitiful as those number are I believe they are actually correct.

I think that was just Gavelston, MJ. The Diva was watching some of the coverage with me - these disaster watches certainly improve geography! It's 2:42 AM and I can't sleep. This is the time I need Hooked around. Damn Ike... But I'm finding a spoiler or two: Luke will not be taking kindly to what the Zs have done to his daughter Tracy spirits a catatonic Laura off to Europe, but is her rival REALLY catatonic? (not sure if I've dropped this already) The Blog has been updated - please go forth and post. And somewhere in a hotel room in Washington... More from The Annals

On the phone with Hooked. They are all fine with little damage in their area. EDIT Hmmm, quiet on all fronts I see. Well, this was dropped at SD today: ILS, Tracy is just filler for the next few weeks. She is involved with the jury coming to a verdict. Her story will pick up a little. She will be somewhat involved with the Laura stuff. And said Laura stuff is about as difficult to find as hen's teeth, it would seem. Next week seems to be Skate's wedding, Scrub's family drama and the verdict. Edward should be around M and T (my conjecture, not positive) because the jury finds him not-guilty on Wednesday. Outside of that there isn't anything in the offing until Luke returns. Lets hope we're surprised.

Yeah, the LnL hopefuls will get disappointed I suspect, but then again they wish to believe in the impossible. LuNacy is going to have some good stuff and be solid throughout. Ewcbo is a blip, but it will be interesting to find out how much she knows. (Like the fact that Luke lied his ass off with her while keeping his wife fully informed.) I'm worried about her too, MJ, especially since CNN seems to be saying the back side of Ike is right over her and it's been the part doing the most damage. All of us here and her friends on SD are awaiting word. It's kind of nice to see how many are concerned for her and her family.

Morning all... guess no one's heard from Hooked yet. Hope she and her family are okay. I was on SD this morning and found this. Insider, Please for TracyFan: Do you have anything on Tracey/Luke ot Tracey only. Thanks Tracey gets Laura out of the country. Luke doesn't handle that well and then dealing with all the Lulu and Lucky stories. He is not the best at dealing with all this. But, he will try in his Luke way. Now I'm not sure what to think, because this does sound in character. Does Tracy believe Lulu because she knows Laura really is awake - and if Tracy gets Laura out of the country than Laura knows Tracy is Luke's wife. And does Laura ask Tracy to do this? She must because Tracy doesn't have any legal say in Laura's situation. I just hope it's worth the wait.

Hmmmm... I ignored the ewcbo scenes today. Guess I'll have to go back and watch.
