The Tracy Quartermaine Lovefest

I have one long mangled word to describe yesterday's episode: Yum-TheFrack-OH!

OMG. OMGOMGOMG. Ya'll, they're treating LuNacy like a real, you know, couple and stuff! Now this is nothing new--we've been doing that in fanfic for months. But TIIC are SLOW and they need GUIDANCE and they're starting to CATCH ON. Wow. This is huge.

Okay, my not-so-brief reactions to specifics:

The opening scene: One, they started the show. AND, they started it OBVIOUSLY finishing the kiss they started the previous day. NICE. Very nice. Shows that their kisses last for 23 full hours, which is good for me.

Two, even in the face of Luke taking off (AGAIN, thank you freakin' Tony freakin' Geary and his psychotic vacay schedule) WITH Laura in tow, Tracy is calm, smiling, relaxed, even joking. This is a woman who is confident in her love and in her marriage. She TRUSTS him. OMG, she trusts him. This is either a huge huge breakthrough, or a set-up for a huge, huge fall (although I don't feel that at all.) Either way, what bliss! Tracy, lots of it, and good stuff.

Scene where they discuss plans: Luke and Tracy discussing Spinelli was fracking hilarious. Downright hysterical. Spumoni, Spumante (yeah, the lush would remember that one....), he speaks about himself in the third person and refers to himself as an animal...a hyena?? I was on the floor. Jane Elliot rocks my itty-bitty sockies, and she can just stand there with her shiny, oomphy hair and make jokes about other characters all day long.

Scene with Lulu: Dudes, did ya'll even NOTICE that Lulu was perfectly cool with Luke and Tracy on the same side, scheming? Now, yeah, they may be playing it off as Lulu is numb from everything and she just doesn't care, but I'm seeing more. Luke is planning to "relocate" her mother. Tracy is right there--calm, smiling, compassionate--HELPING HIM. Tracy knows this means Luke will go away, and she's perfectly calm and rational about it. Now, Lulu has been there through most of this--through the gaslighting plot, through Luke's disappearance to the Maarkhams--all of it. She KNOWS how Tracy gets when she feels threatened over Luke.

The point I'm trying to make is that not only is Tracy not acting all tense and paranoid at the thought of Luke running off with Laura, Lulu is not reacting to it. She is taking for granted that Tracy is okay with this, that Tracy is relaxed with it. Dudes, she has accepted that Tracy and Luke are a real, solid, lasting couple. She is starting to treat Tracy like part of the family--does anybody remember the last time she called Tracy "Stepwitch?"

Maybe I'm overreacting, but yesterday was totally squee-inducing.

Too bad you didn't make the BR yesterday, MF, we said all the same things!! And as far as the stepwitch... I remember the last time. I'm almost certain it was when Scotty first showed up. She started to call her a stepwitch and corrected herself and said it wasn't fair or she should say that or something. Tracy was starting to be more obvious about protecting Lulu and Lulu was starting to like her and be Nice! (Like I said, I think that's when it was, but the fanfics are starting to blend with the real story in my head, so I don't know for sure)

by the way, HI!!! big waves to Minerva if you're still on

edit: ok, I guess you're gone, but now I'll wave to ILTQ, man, this is the first time I've seen anyone in here the same time as me in a while!

"23 hours." BLAH!!!!! You're hilarious, Deb. Hilarious! :lol: :lol: :lol:

I had very similar reaction to yesterday. It's always been so obvious to me the WAY Lunacy should be written. They're now writing them that way. Which means one of two things: a. It was SO obvious that TIIC finally saw it. b. We're getting set up for a BIG, FAT fall.

Regardless, I'm going to enjoy the ride!!!

You know what I LOVED about yesterday?

-When TG said, 'maybe you should call her.' SOOO Wifey. SOOO Couple-y. Yummo.

-When Tracy stepped in and said to LuLu, 'actually it's not your help WE need.' She was in on the project 10000%.

LOVE THIS, PEOPLE!! LOVE THIS!!!!!!!.

Okay.. this is a litlle ballsy, but I need a favor. You can say no.

Deb.. I need a new avtar. My "almost" doesn't cut it anymore. When there are screencaps of Thursday's Kiss, can you grab that for me, and put the words "At Last" on there? And make the whole thing all sparkle-y and glowy? (very ethereal) Would you mind? Am I being too nervey?

ta ta!

Hey, y'all. Haven't been meaning to ignore you. Promise. GH just... well, I don't find the time to bother watching. What I like featured just isn't featured enough for my liking. But I saw the episode where Luke came back after court and Tracy was with Alana and they discussed the plan. Great stuff.

I would do it for you lainey if I knew how! I don't know how to make the words on it or effects.

Loved yesterday. I also loved how he said "we would get further if you called her" and JE said, "no, you try first, I'll play second string. what do you have to lose?" Love that she is his backup...but also think she wants luke to mend the fences with Lulu and not let other people do it for him....

You know what...Tracy has really grown up and matured and evolved because of Luke (which is strange cause he is so immature and irresponsible and self-wallowing, etc. However like Deb said...she is not jealous and suspicious or insecure like she has been in all her other marriages/relationships...always thinking the person is cheating, etc... (course they usually were so she was right).

And since they writers are obviously not going to show a love scene between them, I actually think that was a good way to make it "known" without showing it that they are sleeping together by Tracy making that "sex life" comment.

knh I think the last time lulu said "step witch" or "step monster" was either when she went to see laura at shadybrook and then said "she shouldn't call her that as she knows what it is like to lose a mother" Or when spinelli was over and they were looking up rick webber stuff and tracy barged in the room and told him to leave and lulu was like "don't argue with the step monster" Those were both within a day or two back in January when Tracy was on 8 days in a row!!! I think that is the last time...although they haven't had all that many scenes together since then...a few in the hospital with scotty but not much interaction I don't think

Do you guys think Lulu will move back to the Qs? I sure hope so.

Edit...Nex...do you Thursday and Friday's dowloaded from GHVT? Hellagood only has the whole show. If you do...do you know what segments they were?

We were like the biggest loser family sitting in the store cracking up so hard that I was almost in tears....didn't help that I am slap happy tired from staying up so late last night and waking up so early today.

    • Haha that scarf thing did go on a bit too long, very odd. And what a young Rick!  I know this is an unpopular opinion, but I just never got the physical appeal of Grant Aleksander, but he's definitely a great actor. Who is the older lady around the 8:30 mark, and also ends the episode, alone and in pain? She seems like a really interesting character. I love the smoky voice and sultry, snaky vibe she seems to have.
    • I can't remember exactly but I think she lives in or is part of the cottage story with Carrie. Carrie poisons her in this episode.  I forgot Teresa was on the show. (I see that AI is insisting she wasn't - well they're wrong) Poor Maeve. I can how even she had her limits. 
    • It pisses me off that the other Duprees are making this incident all about them as well. They are playing a family of victims, acting as if Ted cheated on all of them. They should be supportive, but not like this. I have a family that makes anything that happens to me personally all about them, and seeing the same thing on TV is rage-inducing.
    • There are the makings of good Emmy reels in these past couple of episodes, but the industry is still going to favor even the most mediocre stories and performances on the older soaps. And with the pressure from the government over race I can see the academy shutting out Beyond The Gates to avoid criticism from the administration and the far right media.
    • oh, definitely! It's too bad she hit the start of a rough transition period for the show. She shines, but she's stuck with bad story and some (if not exactly bad) not great co-stars.  Uh, who did Maureen O'Sullivan play? (Sigh--and only if I'd understood exactly who and how wonderful Teresa Wright was in '86) God, the summer of '84 was literally one event after another. Kim's outfit alone must've been worth a small fortune. And poor Maeve. She looks so uncomfortable. Rebecca Hollen told a story on Locher Room where Maeve dropped the f-bomb during the shooting of it. For some reason, she wasn't being listened to, and had just had enough. As a producer, I would've been holding my breath as my pregnant actress kept walking around strange and undoubtably uneven sets in that long skirt.
    • Thanks. I'm glad we have some fan memories of these years as this is such a typically snide take on the genre. It's also poorly written and reminds me a great deal of the tedious "snark" recaps that became popular in the '90s. The end in particular. The 1979/80 stuff I have seen is much more polished than a number of soaps at the time. It was very easy to watch and not too bogged down in past story.  Margo is played by Ann Williams, who was on what seemed like every soap. I think she said Margo was her favorite role.  These episodes aren't consecutive, but if you ever have time, they are worth a watch. They are bits and pieces from January and April of 1979 - April in and out of prison, her past calling to her via her psychic powers (and the suicide of Miles' wife Denise, who had murder framing in mind). April 1979 has the end of Winter Austen (such a fantastic soap name).  I don't want to drop a ton of links but you can find playlists on Youtube.
    • And the rating 'wars' continue...hehe.
    • Well, it was fun while it lasted for Rebecca Herbst. Le sigh.    
    • I am wholeheartedly enjoying this show. I just haven't been able to post as much as I used to. But yes, this episode needs to be submitted for the EMMYs and there needs to be wins. I better NOT see Y&R, DAYS, or B&B winning in categories over BTG. I feel like the only show that is giving BTG an ounce of competition this season is GH.
