Yeah knh--that is so stupid...as if TQ a mult-millionaire with money up the wazoo wouldn't have cash stashed away somewhere in a swiss bank account. Like she doesn't have any other assets? And like they could garner her ELQ paycheck? So stupid! However, maybe they did this so Tracy would totally be desperate to receive "silence" money from Jerry.

Also totally stupid but my husband was actually in the room when I was rewatching part of monday and he was like "Oh there is a direct flight from Milan to Port Charles, NY when they showed a close up of Claudia Zachara's plane ticket! Yeah right...and a paper ticket no less!

I am ducking down covering my head from the tomatoes about to be thrown at me...but I am actually looking forward to seeing if Sarah Brown shakes up the canvas.

And the new opening is a big fat rumor.

I saw this on GHH2 today...not sure who it is referring to...but could possibly be Tracy? Although more like Jason or Sonny...

Ian Devlin’s past with Jerry and the power of that ‘’relationship’’ will threaten one

of our more seemingly powerful characters.

You know the medianet photos of Tracy with the fur thing and luke are for the week of 2/4, so that means he will probably show back up on Thursday of this week and then they won't be on again til the 4th. I am looking forward to Tracy getting Monica suspended now.

Seems like Monica is going to go after custody of Michael...good for LC finally getting a story!

I am hoping the push/pull Luke/Tracy will involve some good lunacy moments too. Hopefully Luke will sincerely tell her he loves her adn wants her back. I hope she will give in, even if it ends up back and forth.

Hooked, don't bother ducking down too far in those covers. I'm looking forward to SBr's return as well. I loved her Carly (and only her Carly). Someone was hoping that she might actually turn out to be Tracy's daughter - and it wasn't one of us (though I have speculated the same thing).

The opening being a dud makes sense. Replacing TG in the last spot seemed awfully wrong to me.

I'm looking forward to Tracy sticking it to Monica. It will be interesting to see which side Tracy plays if/when Monica goes for custody of Michael. Family is always more important to Tracy then internal bickering.

As for the push/pull for Tracy/Luke, I'm really looking forward to that. Tracy has NEVER been on the receiving end of a man's romance for romance sake - just because he wants her. I really hope she forgives him early on, but keeps him at bay a little longer while she relishes the attention.

From somewhere I don't know

GENERAL HOSPITAL: As the rain falls, Sam darts into the road in her desperate attempt to escape her attacker. Lucky admits to Lulu he doesn't think he can forgive Sam's deception. Monica is a nervous wreck after an incident on the road and tries to cover the fact that she's been drinking while driving. Monica later makes a call claiming that her car has been stolen. Claudia is reunited with her father, Anthony, and quickly sets out to prove she's now a force to be reckoned with. Jax is overjoyed when Spinelli and Maxie wonder how Logan's dog tags ended up in Coop's room. Ric tries to get closer to Marianna and they end up kissing. Trevor gets steamed when Claudia asserts her authority and makes it clear that she's calling the shots. Tracy refuses to live in the memories of Laura's shadow and calls it quits with Luke. Jason turns to Spinelli to figure out exactly what happened on the night of Sam's accident. Logan is filled with rage as he secretly watches Lulu and Johnny share a kiss. Mike catches Michael buying bullets on the docks.

SNEAK PEEK: Scott is about to solve a murder.

Edit

Don't freak out....cause we know Luke is going to try to win Tracy back. This is for next week I think when the hit and run takes place...maybe Luke tells her they can go live in Laura's house for now and the live in the memories of Laura's shadow is LITERAL! No way will Tracy live in that house!!

I think that even though we are gonna hate the break up type part, they are not going to be out of each other's orbits so fast and we know he wants her back and is gonna try to get her back. At least hopefully that means she has some airtime coming up with TG!! Plus the will forging seems to be back! They are both involved with that.

^^^I read that Luke comes into the mansion saying "I'm home!" and Monica says something to the effect "Not any more" Like I said that was what I read.

I will post clips of yesterdays show later this afternoon, when I get a free moment. (I still need to edit them)

Oh no, I totally get that it is only to set up her desperation for Jerry money and offer, but we couldn't make it a little more believable? I mean, maybe when they didn't care if tracy had a real story or any fans they could write something like this and not care if it made sense or sounded plausable, but now, when we know she is supposed to be getting a more prominent role, lets smarten up the story folks

Hey guys...friendly reminder to take spoiler wording with a grain of salt...they always tend to exaggerate to get the most bang for the buck, so Tracy calls it quits with luke doesn't mean for good or divorce...

This was from serial drama site about GH week in reviewfrom last week: These woman write a column in SOD too. They love JE!

It was a week of big hair changes (Becky Herbst's unfortunate bangs trim, Megan Ward's abandonment of the legendary bob, Josh Duhon's long-overdue cut), with none bigger than Jane Elliot's.

(Photo of Tracy's new do here)

The woman is FIERCE. Tracy is too, but man, I would vote for Jane Elliot to be president of everything.

EDITING

Because I wasn't sure whether or not I could post the transcript, I've edited to this:

The caller was wondering what LC's favorite Monica and Tracy scene was and if they ad-libbed in it. LC brought up the most recent fight scene in the elevator, and while LC and JE were working it out, the man who was giving her the papers said to them that he handed one of them the same thing 17 years ago. The other fight scene in the fountain was brought up. LC and JE are known for that. Said they're good, good friends and get along and help each other, sometimes suggesting what's best for a scene. It makes it fun.

The caller says that that is good and that she likes the Monica and Tracy dynamic. Mentions of bickering and fiestiness. LC said it's fun. It's the kind of stuff she wishes there could be more (she's hesitant here). Goes on about the Quartermaine dynamic. Love, hate relationship. In a pinch, they'd both be there for each other, and that's what makes it interesting. If something truly awful happened, they'd toss everything aside, but in the meantime, all bets are off...

    • I read an interview with Lenore Kasdorf and she had said was asked back to GL in 1987 but she turned it down but she said now with Michael (Roger) and Maureen (Holly) back, she would be more interested in returning. This had to be around 1989 and I think in SOD (more of a where are they now? type of article)
    • Beyond what was listed, I think there are a few other moments early on - Nixon tested the waters of having a black female character in a larger supporting part on AW, helping to pave the way for Carla and Sadie on OLTL. Rachel/Ada is in some ways a template for Carla/Sadie, although Carla was much more tormented and her scheming was from preservation.  Jordan Charney eventually arrived at OLTL after his AW success, although that was not duplicated. Doris Belack's success was, several times over.  
    • Jonathan Kellerman has written 40 novels centered on the character of Alex Delaware, with the first being When the Bough Breaks from 1985. One of the aspects of the series which I find so appealing is that characters grow, evolve and change as time goes on. They act and react in a believable, human fashion. While each book tells one complete story, certain relationship threads can continue as the series evolves. Occasional references to the past (from previous novels) also make the readers feel like we know the characters intimately; that we are "living" with them through the years. Actor John Rubenstein (of the 1970s' TV series Family) narrates the audiobooks, and he is perfectly cast. I've never read or listened to an Alex Delaware story which I did not enjoy.
    • This was me! I finally got caught up yesterday and even then, I still may wait until Friday to binge these two episodes. I find that I can watch GH in the background because the pacing is so slow but I must be able to devote my full attention to BTG because so much happens.

    • Article discussing the state of daytime in 1971. The 3 networks were competitive for the first time thus leading to the 'daytime wars' of the 70's, with shows cancelled, soaps expanding etc. The high drama of network daytime CBS, reigning champion of the dollar -profitable weekday schedule, faces toughest challenge in 13 years. Although CBS is virtually unchallenged as the ratings leader in nighttime, the picture in daytime, where CBS also leads, is as different as day from night. To begin with, costs of programing are much lower in daytime than in nighttime TV, and the profitability thus potentially higher. For this reason alone, network rivalry in this area is traditionally intense, although not so frequently subject to public view. This year, particularly, the developments in daytime programing are dramatic. It is the first time in 13 years that CBS has been threatened seriously. It continues in the leadership position, but both NBC and ABC are nipping at its heels; in the season to date, CBS is but three tenths of a percentage point ahead of NBC, and but two-thirds of a percentage point in front of ABC. Average ratings for network programing in the daytime periods (Monday - Friday, 10 a.m. -4:30 p.m. EST) this season stand at CBS 7.6, NBC 7.3 and ABC 7.0, giving CBS an edge of 4% above NBC and 9% over ABC. In the similar period of 1970, CBS's lead was more impressive: 8.4 vs. NBC's 6.9 and ABC's 5.9. It is necessary to go back 13 years to find an NBC daytime performance comparable to this year's -and only twice within that period has NBC showed up as well. In the 1958 -59 sea- son, CBS and NBC were in a tie-a 7.7 rating for each -while ABC was a poor third, just starting on its historic "Operation Daybreak" (in which ABC began the so- called scatter plan in daytime, with advertisers buying participations). ABC's rating then: 3.6. NBC again broke through in daytime in the 1961 -62 season: CBS 7.6, NBC 7.1 and ABC 4.1. In the intervening years, daytime television on the weekdays belonged to CBS. It was at perhaps the crest of its leadership in the 1965 -66 season. CBS then had a 4.5 percentage -point advantage over NBC (CBS 10.6, NBC 6.1 and ABC 4.7). CBS officials place the "big turn" in daytime in the 1962 -63 season with the catchy power of the Password game in the lineup. In that season, CBS came up with a three -percentage -point lead over NBC -CBS 9.2, NBC 6.2 and ABC 3.9. From then on it was CBS by a comfortable margin, season after season. ABC's daytime performance has followed the upward curve. While -as CBS officials readily concede -CBS had perhaps nowhere to go but down, ABC could experiment in its scheduling, and hopefully only go up. It did, but not immediately. After a steady climb, ABC's breakthrough occurred in the 1969 -70 season (CBS 9.2, NBC 7.1 and ABC 7.0) with the network gaining ground with its game show scheduling of such vehicles as Let's Make a Deal. Although ABC failed to hold that showing in the 1970 -71 season (CBS 8.9, NBC 7.6 and ABC 6.4), it is now performing at its best daytime level in history. ABC authorities say that network has been building for what might appear to be at least near parity in weekday programing. They cite Let's Make a Deal as having "started things up" with General Hospital and One Life to Live giving additional impetus to the movement. From ABC's point of view, the crucial change in daytime audiences occurred in 1969 when audience shares foretold a "big difference." The real improvement and change in daytime, they say, started in the third quarter of 1971. That followed a repositioning of two daytime staples -ironically Password, CBS's 1962 -63 vintage powerhouse, and Love, American Style. The former series was punched into a new spot in the schedule last spring: Love followed in the summer (the series is still strong in ABC's nighttime lineup). Although ABC executives speak guardedly of daytime audiences more on a level with those of CBS and NBC, the two challenged networks demur. ABC, they note, is nowhere near parity in daytime, although the improvement is admittedly impressive. For one thing, they contend, ABC does not program during the same hours as do NBC and CBS, and ABC carries one hour less than the other two networks in the daytime period. Moreover, they claim the hours that ABC does not program are those with least audience potential. (CBS and NBC start the schedule - excluding Today on NBC and Captain Kangaroo on CBS-at 10 a.m., take a hiatus for a half -hour at 1 p.m., return at 1:30 and program through to 4:30 p.m. ABC starts at 11:30 a.m., does not pause at 1 p.m. but continues through to 4:30.) ABC counters that not only are daytime clearances holding this season, they are actually showing improvement. In numbers, ABC is clearing an average 153 stations live (88.2% coverage) and an average 26 outlets delayed basis (4.4% coverage) for a total 179 stations representing a 92.6% coverage. Last season, clearances were 149 stations live (87.7% coverage), 27 on delays (4.4% ) for a total 176 stations representing a 92.1% coverage. NBC authorities state flatly that their network is in its "strongest daytime position in 10 years -since late 1961." They note how the margin has narrowed between NBC and CBS since last fall; assert NBC has invested money and time in daytime serials, while CBS's "are wearing thin" (the researchers at NBC point to a general lowering of share levels of CBS drama serials in 1971 vs. 1970). ABC's assessment agrees, and also emphasizes the drop in appeal of CBS's soaps, intimating a possible loss in "quality control." CBS, while not denying the declines in its soaps, refuses to accept the implication that the drama serial may be curtailed. (CBS has eight soaps compared with NBC's five and ABC's three). Four of CBS's shows are Procter & Gamble vehicles: As the World Turns, Search for Tomorrow, Guiding Light and Edge of Night. CBS authorities say you can be sure P &G as well as CBS programers are working on plans to strengthen their respective properties. CBS officials contend the drama serial not only is still well up in share (although off from prior years) at the network but continues as the most "flexible" among daytime entries. If a game show starts to plummet, they say, there's not much that can be done to "change" the format. With soaps, a fall -off in viewer interest can be countered by extensive changes in storyline and /or characters; a role can be written in or out of a script almost at will. CBS cites just such a turnaround accomplished with Love is a Many  Splendored Thing. Fred Silverman, then in charge of daytime programing at CBS (and now in charge of the whole ball game), effected a series of changes until "only the title and the music were recognizable." The surgery worked. For years, CBS has been conscious of the adage that change for the sake of change, when the network is on top, entails needless risk. But the numbers have changed now and CBS must contend with the altered picture. "Everybody is ashamed of daytime," one CBS executive admits. Changes will be made. The first quick snip comes Dec. 20 when My Three Sons replaces The Beverly Hillbillies in the 10:30 -11 a.m. period. Hillbillies is one of three shows rated lowest on the CBS daytime schedule -the others are the seemingly tireless Lucy and Gomer Pyle (the latter, at least, considered by CBS officials as a candidate for cancellation.) Snips two, three and onward may be expected to follow in rapid succession.
    • That's me - in a nutshell. But, it's because BTG is so damn good! I also wondered who was watching soccer during the day, mid-week, or even watching soccer at all. However, I know SOOOO many people that never followed soaps that were downright shocked that a new soap premiered in 2025. Why? Because they didn't know that people still watch TV during the day, mid-week, or still watched soaps at all. Many also didn't realize that soaps streamed, too. So, I feel foolish, but I guess I don't have all the answers with regard to the programming of major TV networks. I'm glad they have people that focus on these things, because that is how we got BTG in the first place.
    • Kelly looks so good in today’s episode (taped mid-March). I’ve always maintained Kelly looks fab in blue, and when they keep her hair straight like this. When they curl her hair, I feel it doesn’t suit her beautiful face.

    • Thank you @BoldKara. I hadn’t realised it’s only a few months away with the current YouTube uploads. I’m happy to wait until then - hopefully they won’t skip the episode this time around.
