Thanks DRW50 for the article and halee for the clips. halee, I loved the one with very young Jane.

I’ve been watching Jessie on Disney Channel, and it’s like the last 2 episodes came straight from a General Hospital transcript when Tracy didn’t want Georgie and Dillon together. The premise is the same, except the couple is in their 20s and not their teens, and Tracy cut off Dillon because of ELQ, not Georgie, but the idea is the same. I'm sure it's been done to death on both daytime and primetime.

What's amusing to me is that Carolyn Hennesy (Diane Miller) is playing the role of the rich mother, complete with the wacky outfits that Tracy sometimes wears (except these outfits are wackier). Her character on this show has been how I’m getting my Tracy fix. You can pretty much replace Brooks with Dillon (except Dillon calls Tracy Mom, not mother), Mrs. Chesterfield with Tracy, and Jessie with Georgie…

******************************

Mrs. Chesterfield: I've canceled your credit cards! So, no more fancy dates, no more fancy clothes No more money.

Brooks: Mother, you can't cut me off.

Mrs. Chesterfield: Oh, really? Just ask your stepfathers two through six.

******************************

Brooks: Mother, we need to talk.

Mrs. Chesterfield: Oh, Brooksie, thank heavens you've come groveling back…

Brooks: Mother, that's it! I've had it! I don't need your money. I'm sick of you controlling me!

Brooks: I've had a better time with Jessie these past few weeks than I've ever had in my life!...So you can keep it all, mother because I'd rather be poor and happy with Jessie, than rich without her!

******************************

Mrs. Chesterfield: Well, if it isn’t my destitute son and the trash who’s dragging him all the way down to her trailer park…My offer still stands, Brooksie. Dump Bessie*, and you get your fortune back.

*says name wrong; should be Jessie

******************************

Brooks: Going up mother?

Mrs. Chesterfield: Yes, unlike you. Can’t believe you’ve sunk so low…

******************************

Mrs. Chesterfield: How could you betray me like this?

Bertram: Because Jessie is like family to me, and families stick together.

Mrs. Chesterfield: Bleh, bleh, bleh, bleh, bleh. I know what’s best for my son, which is why I left his penniless.

Bertram: Which only showed them that Jessie loves him for who he is and not what he has. If anything, you brought them closer together.

Mrs. Chesterfield: How revolting.

******************************

Mrs. Chesterfield: I came to say I’m sorry. Brooksie, I’m giving you your money back, as well as your job as head of the animal sanctuary.

Brooks: You are?

Mrs. Chesterfield: After talking with [bertram], I realized that Jessie might be the one woman in the world who cares about you as much as I do, and I want you to be happy.

I enjoyed the Tracy/Lulu moments from last week, and I am looking forward to more Tracy today and this week. I just hope the Sam/Tracy/Patrick stuff is good.

MsQ, I've seen Jessie, my nieces watch it sometimes. I just can't hack CH in any role, she annoys me. I've seen her character on that show, to me she is just a more hoity toity Diane Miller.

I think my biggest issue with CH is that I always know she's acting. She never feels natural to me, and if I'm going to get lost in a character, that's important.

I am happy, if they bring back old Larry and don't ruin him. I am afraid though, that he is the "something worse" than Victor, that is Nathan's father.

Which OTOH, makes me happy that Ned might get more family if true. I mean, I really can see Dr O and Larry having a fling. But I don't want evil Larry.

He was greedy and sometimes lazy, but not evil.

And I want Larry to jam on his saxophone and Wally on his guitar, just because. Although HN never actually acted with Wally, it's still Ned and Larry. :)

Oh, and TRASH!!!!!!!!!

And that sexy English accent. Bring it. smile.png

Had to come back and say...you know, Tracy may come off as stupid to some, re: Fluke. BUT she is actually right: LUKE would never do the things Fluke is accused of. LUke would never threaten Ned or have Lucas shot, etc. She is actually the only one sticking up for Real Luke and still believing in him.

Still, it's a very big leap to "you're not my husband and you must be a fake". I don't know how or why they'll start to realize Luke is being held captive and drugged.

I think Robin ends up with the real Luke and she helps him escape. Maybe Tracy and Larry will reconnect when she figures out fluke doesn't want her or ditches her. Then when real luke comes back she will be in the middle.....

I'm just glad to see Hugo...never say never on soaps I guess

hooked, I bet Jane is over the MOON. Three of her favorite men (Hugo, Wally AND Tony?) Lucky girl !

I do have to wonder though, if the rumors about Luke dying and Tony retiring are true, and they are bringing Hugo on for Jane to have someone as a romantic interest.

I hope not, I personally hope Tony sticks around as long as Jane does...but I know his health the last several years has not been great.

    • @TaoboiI ran into Dani’s favorite party planner again tonight

    • I think they’re desperately trying to cover his awful tattoos. But anyway them being unable to style short kings properly has been a major pet peeve of mine for a while now.  I honestly don’t understand what some people expect from actors to even begin considering them for recognition. Let’s be real—awards mostly mean that an actor is respected by their peers and has some level of cultural relevance. Actual judgment on the acting itself? That’s often secondary—highly subjective and shaped by the times. I completely agree on both points. If you’re an actor or a dancer you shouldn’t get any tattoos (sorry not sorry). Tomas’ tattoos are ugly too. And regarding the couples- you’re completely right. These writers are unable to write romance.   Further comments: - Kat cannot be this dumb to keep tampering with evidence over and over again. And I’m officially not a fan of the actress—every time she’s in a scene with Leslie, she doesn’t seem intimidated at all. She plays it like comic relief, which is just too much, especially when paired with Leslie’s histrionics and over-the-top antics. Leslie is older, dangerous, and has literally been portrayed as homicidal—Kat should be at least a little scared. • I also didn’t like Kat playing damsel in distress with the hotel manager. It gave off the same weird energy as Dani with the cop. I would’ve much preferred the version Paul Raven suggested, with her sneaking in through housekeeping. • And yes, Dani again accused Hayley of faking the pregnancy—this time even specifying she might be using a pillow under her shirt. (No fake miscarriage being mentioned) I stand by my take: this is ridiculous writing. No one in the real world—except us, the chronically online soap watchers—would even think of such a conspiracy theory. Haley is no Beyoncé. • What in the world was Chelsea wearing in her hair the other day? And this whole thing with Madison is beyond cringe. Chelsea’s coming off as needy and toxic—basically like every other Dupree. • I’m glad the casino storyline is moving forward, but it’s still boring as hell. Honestly, I’d be so here for a plot twist where Vanessa and Doug take Joey out. • The direction and editing lately have been rough. Abrupt cuts, weird pacing… something just feels off overall. There’s a strange uneasiness to how it’s all coming together. • And finally: Tomas is too much of a saint. Where are the messy sluts when you need them? (Vanessa doesn’t count.)
    • I was watching some August 1987 episodes and they brought back so many memories. I had some thoughts: Lisa and Jamie were so dull. Lisa was such a nothing character. It boggles my mind that so much story was centered around her in such a short amount of time. Joanna Going is a talented actress, but the material was just not there.  It was so good to see Wallingford and Mitch again. I know there was talk about Felicia a while back, but these episodes reminded me how integral Felicia was for the show.  Sally Spencer was done so dirty. She is turning in superb performances in an icky storyline. I wish she had stuck around longer. She has chemistry with everyone. The McKinnons should have lasted longer. Spencer had some strong stuff with Stephen Schnetzer and Mary Alexander. AW waster such a talented actress by getting rid of her. Justice for Cheryl too. I also missed Ed Fry when he left. Sandra Ferguson was a star from the moment she came on. She was charismatic and just popped. She had immediate chemistry with RKK and blended in well with Wyndham and Watson. I'd forgotten about the teenage Matthew.  I have no memory of Peggy Lazarus. She must not have lasted long. Was the original plan for John that he was going to turn out to be the twins' real father?      
    • If the new and improved copies that @rsclassicfanforever has uploaded can be manually moved into the "by month, by year" folders, that would be awesome. I personally don't think it's necessary to keep the older versions (which either have Dutch subtitles hard coded on them, or are lesser in picture quality). That's a lot of valuable drive space that could be cleared. Just my view but can appreciate others may feel differently. The structure had been by month by year previously, so I think it would be easier to conform to that, where so much prior work to get it to that format has already been done. Hopefully you can "drag and drop" so the new copies are in the right month/year? Re Clips, I never look at them now we pretty much have the episodes in full. Appreciate others may use, however. Thanks for all your hard work here @BoldRestless!
    • Oh yes defintely, Josh Griffith repeats and repeats the same storylines.
    • Isnt’t this storyline similar to the Cameron Kirsten situation though? Sharon thought she killed him. He ended up being alive and Sharon was being tormented with thinking she was seeing his face everywhere and that’s how we got that iconic scene with her and Nikki in the sewers.   I understand in Mariah’s case this is different circumstances but it does seem like a play on that whole thing. Maybe I’m wrong. I just wish if they were going to make any character follow in Sharon’s foot steps it would be Faith. Mariah wasn’t even raised by her, and her personality is different. I would expect her to take a different path. I understand I could be completely jumping ahead because the storyline hasn’t even played out yet but we’ll see. 
    • Thanks again @Paul Raven Monica was completely without redeeming qualities at this point. I always found the whole Monica = Carly narrative regressive, as I don't think shows comparing characters so heavily is ever a great idea, but she's actually worse than Carly was. Was it the Pollocks who had Leslie have a miscarriage?  Giving her a child, especially by rape, was not a good idea, but a part of me wishes they'd committed to it just to see what story it might have had in later years.
