I am a newcomer to these clips…never watched gh before. I came across these by accident and am so grateful I did. First of all, the person who put all these together has done a wonderful job. Secondly, I am 59 years old and this is the most sensuous steamy unbelievably realistic love scene I have ever seen. On tv or big screen. No filthy talk, no groping. Just pure sensuality!!! And lastly I’d like to say that I would have given in to this man about 100 clips ago🔥
@@lilwinged5291 🫠🫠🫠🫠🫠🫠🫠. Over 60. Amazing. Getting me through some hard times. I’m nursing an unwell relative….and it’s quite embarrassing to just burst out laughing at 2:00 a.m. from some of their antics. 1978-1981 and 1983* 1984* restart. !!!!!! I’ve lost count of the times seriously but they make me forget for just a little while every day
@@jeaninehogshead4710 🤣🤣 yes , i was actually going through 😔 healing and it helped 🤣🤣.. I like those emotions alot more ... A THERAPIST may say ohhh like your jokes you're avoiding again.😂😂
I honestly don't think I'm my almost 47 years, have I ever seen this much passion and chemistry between a couple on TV, the Silver Screen, & let alone in real life even!!! I seriously don't know how she didn't fall in love with Anthony Geary in real life...I know I would have lol...
Well..she had just turned 18..just graduated high school. Tony was 32 yrs old. I saw an interview..where Genie answered that question by saying that..Tony was almost parental or big brother-like to her..in real life. Tony responded that he did feel like a protective big brother towards Genie. I guess that would explain their real life relationship.
@@janetmyles8764 Well..acting and real life are completely different things. My son and my daughter were in their high school musical together and they had to play boyfriend & girlfriend in the play. They didn't have to kiss (thank God)..but they did have to hold hands and appear to be in love. Acting is acting..and the real life relationships can be very different from what you are seeing on the stage or screen.
Mayme Clayton I say Laura/Genie can hold her own in any situations She is strong.loving understanding and feisty. Laura can also be. a fighter for what she believes in.
lajmh wow they make a BIG bundle Wow. They would be dancing in the video ailed Plus the shelves would be empty wow Go ahead I”ll be there first thing in the morning “Hello” Good luck thanks Love Rosie
OMG millions, just millions of million’s people would flock around DVD stores just to put there food in the door to buy them... I know I be first to be on line. Oh yeah.... thank you love. Rosiesorry I meant my foot in side the door! I would love to buy GH+ Luke & his Laura. OMG now that would be most EPIC! Thanks JMVHO. Love them LnL. Rosie
Hi there!! These are great. Thanks for uploading. And I see you said they are all from VHS tapes, and have many playlists, So let me ask you this. Would you also have Some Playlists that Continue the Allen/Monica/&Rick Saga's from let's say, the late 70s, like 1979, or 80? Boy, I'd really like to See those.😀👍. Please let me know, and thanks again so much for uploading these great episodes.👍👍.Love them!!😉👌👌❤️❤️.
She consented before hand. Gloria monty talked with her farther and her. The both consented...Her farther could of said NO but didn't and she was old enough also to say NO NO
You do understand that this was after HE RAPED HER? I can appreciate the story, and get into it that way, but to actually buy into it and get turned on like it's some kind of legit romantic seduction? You're all fucking crazy.
We have watched all 135 chapters to this point. Some watched it the first time it aired in 1980. So yes everyone knows the context of everything that’s happened between them, and to them by others, up to this point. Have you even watched the whole story?? Their relationship is very complex and layered.
This was a HOT scene. I remember being on the edge of my seat wondering if someone was gong to come in on them. Tony G was so convincing. This is the Luke that deserved all those Emmys.
@@eddiecater1429 Well,we see they did not consummate right here;they wouldn't have had the time,lol. This was great stuff for 3:00 in the afternoon. These 2 actors made GH,they gave GH a following of fans,unmatched,as evidenced by the fact that we're still here on YT...lo,these many years later...still watching and still talking about the greatest couple in soapdom.
Laura is just beautiful in every way conceivable! The hair, face, complexion...…...her eyes, eye brows, lips, teeth. ALL OF IT! She was just beautiful and of course, she still is. The chemistry here was like nothing I've ever seen. I have never seen anything before or sense. I loved watching them in 78 and on. What a wonderful couple. I got into L&L big time! LOL!
At 2:07 is the most beautiful shot of Laura I've ever seen. This is my ultimate favorite scene with Luke and Laura! Thanks!! I love this song also playing in the background towards the end called "Rotation"
And to think, he’s 33 and she’s only 18. Whew….. 💥🔥. I will always love their first kiss and the whole circumstances surrounding that the most, but boy this was what, 8 months later? And this just got way more intense….❤️🔥❤️🔥
messing up her lines was pretty consistent. That's what made LM so perfect for this part. She was so bad she was awesome........she played Jennifer SO perfect. I wonder what happened to her....
This is a treasure. Thank you for your hard work, Sus. We look at our own lives and use imagination and get lost in this beautiful love story of wild abandon. Many of us have our own memories and reflect on past lovers, crazy passion when life was so carefree. We love, seeing love. AG and GF captured a beautiful love, adoring each other, fighting, making up, forgiving and that sarcastic humor and they did it fully clothed. Not an easy task. Their chemistry is outstanding in these moments.
Here's how potently hot this scene is: the first time I found it on TH-cam I saw it as a stand alone and without it being in context of the full, complete storyline. And It was sizzling! Just like I remembered it all those years ago as elementary schooler. Now in proper context, watching it as an adult, it's a scorcher. The chemistry between TG and GF is palpable. It's so easy to see why GH became such a phenomenon, L&L such an iconic, supercouple. Classic L&L scene!
I was in my early 20s & thought that I was the perfect age for Anthony Geary. LOL!! I dreamed of kissing him in the moonlight. Those were the days..and I loved every minute of my Tony Geary fantasies. :-) :-)
@Cheri Kugler. This is Herb Alpert solo material. The first song that plays the scene in pt 133 is Street Life then it changes to Rotation when things start getting ❤️🔥😉. Both on the 1979 album RISE (the song from that night at the disco)
What was remarkable is that they kept this "seduction" thing going on for nearly a year and never missed a beat. The writing, acting, pacing, direction - it was ALL there. The left handed boy story was great but the early L&L seduction was brilliant.
Yes, and they don't write character driven drama like this anymore. They are so obsessed with LAME plots current soaps are missing this.. and this is what made them so good!
sussezq I like the way someone else phrased it in a comment also, they write for the attention deficit, quick plots with little substance now. We used to say, "we could skip months of a soap and still catch up", not now storylines go by fast. This is so fun coming back thru watching again and reading all the new comments.
The stories in all TV and film today, 90% are garbage. Just puerile junk. I majored in Film. I can only watch UK/ foreign stuff where they try to develop characters and the writing is miles above what Hollywood has to offer...
No one can take from Luke and Laura fans what they feel for the characters. Laura is able to forgive Luke and she already cared for him before that night. That is why she was able to forgive him. It isn't as if she fell in love with some horrible monster after the fact. If others can't forgive Luke or understand that Laura had feelings for him long before that night, don't watch them together.
Genie Frances has the right amount of innocence and passion,stretch and reaction,she got even sharper with this role and had more layers than her beauty might convey. She blends perfectly with Anthony Gearys ooooooh sexiness or something ..that is chemistry and both of them have real acting talent
I *love* watching him break down her reserve...Laura was always reluctant to face her true feelings. Luke never let her get away with denying them. That's why he was a much better match for her than Scott. Scotty wanted to put a nice, shiny gloss over everything; Luke was able to face the unvarnished truth. Namely, they wanted each other!!! "Please, do you want me Laura?" The bottom just dropped out of my stomach! Could *any* woman withstand this kind of temptation?! The moaning is unreal!!!
They both made each other look wonderful gorgeous sexy hot and mind blowing cool. There acting is more then outstanding over the rainbow crazy in love with each other. Luke &Laura make us a call think that there love would last a life time. Like forevermore. Just like a gift from God sealed with pray and a blessing. Love. Rosie
Oh this stuff has distracted me from lots of real life difficulties! (We call it Luke and Laura therapy around these parts!!!) ... and now isn't that what art is supposed to do! ..and in that vein this is all masterful... not just the acing but the entire production.. really incredible and anyone who was employed by GH back then should be EXTREMLY proud of their work. It has stood the test of time!
@Sussezq- you are a GODDESS for posting all these playlists. First time I'd ever seen this clip. WOW. WOW. WOW. Have watched it a few times now. LOL. Had completely forgotten about Luke and Laura. But now I'm totally obsessed and working my way thru all of your L+L playlists. All my other shows are on hold until I watch all of the clips through 1982. I've been binge-watching since last week. Just caught up to late 1981. Scotty has returned and destroyed the divorce decree. I know what's coming down the road. And I am dreading IT. So, I paused where I was at and came back to watch this clip again to cheer myself up. I don't understand why GH hasn't released DVDs or set up online streaming at Netflix or HULU with all the L+L scenes? Don't they understand they'd make a fortune? Sigh...maybe one day... p.s.I have a friend who loves GH. Told her about finding these playlists and she's hooked now too!
Thanks so much for your very kind note and letting me know you are enjoying. Makes all the hours uploading worth it. It is just fabulous entertainment and that is true. Goddess huh? People have been very kind and thoughtful about expressing their appreciation (...and I hope that for every time they thank me they send 100 letters to the prospect studio for Ms. Francis and Mr. Geary)... but that one made me LOL. :-) It won't be any less entertaining your second or third time through... and you know you'll go there! We all do! ;-)
Luke, every time Laura saw you & Jennifer together she didn't just want to scream she boiling over like hot grits on a stove boiling over like hot lava.
It is probably a good thing that i didn't find these 5+ years ago when you first posted..I don't know that I could have waited since I have been binge watching your posts since i found it.. my hubby thinks that I have lost my mind! lol I forgot how much i really loved this show back in the day.. and what a reminder of what it was like with no cell phones, google, etc. It really gives the younger generation a good look at how far technology has really advanced!
@@amysusan100 Probably. In the real world Gene Francis is 2 1/2 months older than I am. The age difference between the actors themselves (a minor and an adult) were too much, but in soap operas it can be almost any age difference (as long as it's not a child/teen having that kind of relationship with an adult.) Fifteen years is too much a gap between a minor and an adult, but (17 verses 32) but once you're over 21 verses 36 it's not so much except for life's experiences. And once you're 58 and 73 the difference is less mote; and 73 verses 88 you're "twins separated at birth from different mothers."
Thank you so much for putting this together! I'm loving watching Luke and Laura from the beginning. I was in 9th grade when this came on, and I rushed home to every episode.
Whoever you are, I love you !.. ..that's what I wanted to write you, the other night .Because I needed a distraction and I chanced upon this. It took me back to being that 12 year old little girl that was into drama ( though I understand the scene better now and still appreciate its artistry) .As for the scene above ..oh my goodness ,the chemistry, among the best ever seen ,then and now. I know now your name is Susie and I think your wonderful, for posting this and appreciating great acting
No wonder Elizabeth Taylor was on this shoe ..he's a young Richard Burton,Steve McQueen,Marlon Brando,Humphrey Bogart,Clark Gable all rolled up into one !.. he's sexy ,good, handsome..what a girl needs romantically ..name me one young actor ,just one with the sex appeal of the aforementioned stars
Tony Geary and Elizabeth Taylor were involved in a secret relationship for several years. I think she was on the show because she was crazy for Luke too.
Thank goodness for “delete watched history” I must be insane. I keep watching the same episodes. It’s sexy, real AND not corny romantic. Holy crap Batman 😳🥰
100% guilty here as charged also. OMG, they are so damn hot together. When you consider Tong is a Gay man in real life that just makes their relationship MORE incredable!!!!
@sussezq I never saw this scene when it originally came out. I once read that Luke & Laura almost made love on a sailboat & I told myself I don't remember that scene until I saw your scenes. Thanks
Wow, I don't even know what to say about this clip. Luke really took a gamble. I'm surprised he could stop his seduction at the point that Laura wanted him too. He's wanted her for so long. Very intense!
Gosh Luke had Laura right where he wanted her and he stopped. That was just plain torture I think Laura was more mad at the fact that Luke stopped what was happening. Then she tried to play it off like she was really mad about the door being locked.
Remember Luke was just trying to get Laura to admit to her love for him. Stopping was cruel, I agree, but understandable as Luke wanted to make a point and made it, so his mission was over and he ended it.
@2006bbbb1 I don't think it was realistic that Luke stopped kissing her so quickly though. Luke has been waiting/wanting this moment for so long!! He thought he could never have her, now she wants him desperately. He's madly in love with her and to finally have her reciprocate! I think he would have been incapable of stopping that quick. Impossible. If I directed this scene I would have had them kiss longer after her admission...
@@lisah9709 He kinda had to stop because he did make his point and also Scott and Bobbie, and the other two could shoe up at any moment. I really wanted them to go all the way though
Ok, so I posted my comment too prematurely..lol.Thought we would get to this scene. And I will just say it again, Genie Francis OWNS this scene. I'm still blown away someone so young could convey such desire, especially when the actor she's with is significantly older. One of the ALL TIME hottest scenes ever filmed. God, I need ice water.
I am glad you feel the context helps. It confirms my beliefs and desire to put up the whole story. The independent scenes are great, but I didn't think you could get the full effect without understanding "why". The encouragment is always helpful! Thank you!
I remember watching this scene and it was a sizzler then and now. Genie Francis was so beautiful. The chemistry was on fire during this sailboat scene. Too bad GEnie Francis is not paired with Luke anymore. No one can replace these two in the chemistry dept.
Absolutley love this L&L moment. Both TG and GF are amazing! Again I never saw this the first time around. Oh and Jen is about as helpful as a box of rocks! I am so glad to see this now! I cant to see right before they go on the run and what leads up to it ! I had only seen little scenes here and there . So excited to see it all! Subscrber for life!!!
Watching these edited clips is a luxury I wish I had back in '79. I remember my screams of anguish when the show would cut away to some other storyline!
Yeah, OK. I agree that Luke's relationship with Tracey fills some kind of need for Luke. I know he suffered when he'd visit her and she was out of it.Some of this kind of garbagecould be solved if the writing was better. I think that if they brought Genie back she and Luke would go back to where they were...some people are just meant to be!!!
"OH MY GOD"!!! this scene is so steamy and hot I can barley stand it they had more then chemistry they were blowing up the screen and they didn't even have to take off their clothes :)
I agree. He had to be in love with her. I have never seen any actor kiss like that on TV ( back in the day ). It’s obvious it’s much deeper than “ just acting “. Help us Lord!!
Jeeeesus, I was so looking forward to finally seeing this beautifully hot, sizzling scene of the greatest supercouple of all time and I cannot believe you have been bombarded with so many "rape is rape" comments. WTF! I'm amazed how much spare time people find to preach social awareness especially where it's not needed and specifically for the purpose of creating dystopia. AND by people who have waaay too much time on their hands and no idea what they are talking about. Dude, in 2015, we're still on this??? And after you've obviously worked to create this channel, convert, transfer and post all of this GH footage so its archived here for everyone? I'm astounded by the coward-like behavior of these commenters hiding behind their screens and bitching crudely instead of doing something useful with their opinions (go take down some corrupt legislators, perhaps!). Luke and Laura are a legacy and they've proven that. I certainly hope you didn't remove the Sailboat Seduction clip because of anyone's ignorance. It's a great one! 💋 Thank YOU for all of the clips you've posted! And fyi, this one was incredibly *seductive* and passionate! I don't think any love scene ever surpassed it. There was something about the way he "talked" her into the seduction - wow. 🔥 No unbuttoning of clothes, no skin, nadda. This was so much more intense! 😘 Luke and Laura forever! 💋💋💋
@@rodjohnson3045 Yes many say it was. I for one say yes;yes it was no is no. I mean what part of NO dont anyone understand? Hello but remember they had to set it up as subduction it was the 80s dont you know. They had to make it seem that way. For TV audience back then. Ask me why I dont know only the writers know for sure we just went with the flow at that time. Sorry I wish I knew love Rosie
OMG! DO YOU WANT TO BE MY BEST FRIEND?!?! LOL I AGREE WITH YOU. I keep watching and sharing this specific episode. It was so GREAT, that those two should’ve been REALITY TV. There is no way!!! that they didn’t hook up outside the show at some point!!! I choose to believe that. The way that they turned then”rape” into seduction was brilliant. What do you think my new friend? Ha ha ha... and yes! the way that he spoke to her, his voice, out of breath while he gives her the key!!!!!! I screamed within!!!!!! I’m crazy and I missed the whole GH experience because my mom and grandmother were into Peyton Place, then Another World and in time the Bold and The Beautiful! Oh well... never too late. STILL RELEVANT! “Never never’s a short time with you BAY-BEE”!!! Aaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪 I have time on my hands because I’m an early retiree, and once I’m down with all that I need want and live to do, I have time to binge watch GH... are you watching the whole thing??? Don’t worry I’m not a stalker. Happily married, mom of my amazing 17 year young Only. I loved what you wrote. Calling out the hypocrites Hee hee!
Sometimes I wonder about people who protest too much. Seems like they’re trying to be so politically correct. Obviously the audience chose many years ago to go on this exciting ride with L&L!
@@judithjerde1574 Yes we did I guess we all thought that ride would last forever. With a few stops along the way. We never really thought that ride would come to a complet break down all together. I guess there are things you just can't get fixed? Thank you. For all of those memories. Live Rosie
Also there are plenty of people who know what the initial intention was... Luke Spencer was supposed to die 13 weeks later in Laura's arms. Re-writes happen all of the time on soap operas... and the truth is MILLIONS of people would have accepted anything tptb manipulated to watch the amazing acting team of Geary and Francis for the years we were able.
On the surface this is a simple seduction. Cheaply, Laura just cheated on Scott. But it's SO much more than that. Laura is 18 and loaded with societal expectations and judgements...she married a boy who would ground her in respectability but leaves her (and us) flat. Then she meets a ferral man that turns her inside out. She has no idea what this is, how to handle it, what to do... And all of that shows on Genie's face. What a performance! Luke was on fire here! Totally irresistible. This scene has replays on replays and still women are catching up to it every day. There's not a woman alive that wouldn't cave here. It's on par with any bodice-ripper romance novel out there. Bravo Tony! Every time I watch this I notice something new. Theses can be written in Media Studies classes, Acting classes, writing classes, for Years about this relationship and it's unfolding. Just brilliant!
I so agree! With everything! Genie Francis and Anthony Geary's brilliance! What's more...what is so evident...is how Anthony Geary took a writer's script and totally worked it for that character to be sexy, relevant to the time period.
@mowthpeece1 very true. It is possible to notice or feel something new each time. Quite an observation. I agree with you that it was probably reworked to mote closely fit the characters personalities.
As someone who wasn't even born yet when this aired watching this is amazing! I watched plenty of soaps with my mom growing up but not general hospital. I'm obsessed with their story!
For those of you following along with the discussion below. No not all LnL fans condone rape. Geesh. Not judging those of you who couldn't swallow it. Understand. But we see things from our own experiences and perspectives. Yes Luke was wrong, he was also emotionally dispondant and drunk.. off his game. Misinterpreting things. Laura was confusing. Her caring was not a license to anything, but rest assured there was serious miscommunicaton because of all of those factors. I appreciated the tale.
I suppose some could say it was Fluke that raped Laura. Although, I think that emotions are so complex that it is naive to judge what others do. I watched this in real time back in the day, in my early twenties and felt empathy for both sides, because the acting was so well done.
I get the moral argument, but more than anything I'd say most people didn't see the original (clearly) rape scene and the show retconned it. Tony stumbles over the word "seduction" here, I think to show his recognition that it was rape or to show us that Luke does indeed know it was rape but had a mission here and was just saying that at this moment.
SoapSudsyBubbles.. rape is portrayed in soaps all of the time. It was written that way with intention for Luke to die shortly afterwards in the botched Mitch Williams attempt. So how it was written in the first place was never played out, and switched mid stream. Most recons are a little off, and jar the audience. Many came on board to GH after the whole incident and didn't even realize there were re-writes, some watched and were fine because they did adore the acting team, some found the story compelling and appreciated the serious flaws in the characters, some still can't stand it to this day. However because TH-cam didn't exist it couldn't be under the scrutiny it is now. You couldn't go back and watch, you had to take what they played.. and they seriously played it down for a couple decades only to rehash in the 90's when they were looking for material to throw a monkey wrench into LnL.
I assumed they story was changed from Luke dies after raping Laura to keeping him alive because viewers seem to favor Luke and Laura from the moment Luke started to defend Laura from his sister.
@@orlandobabe Well the reason it was changed is because Luke was supposed to die and Roy was supposed to live. But the actor that played Roy got a night time gig. So they decided, with the increasing popularity of the Luke and Laura scenes, to just let Roy die instead and then try to play the tale that they had shown to that point down. There was no youtube, not many folks had VCRs when it was gone, it was gone, and so many people were intrigued by the acting team that they felt it was an okay business decision. They obviously weren't wrong.
This is also what happened over a decade before with the Barnabas Collins character in Dark Shadows. The evil vampire was supposed to be tracked down and staked after 13 weeks. But like Anthony Geary, Jonathan Frid had that vulnerability that Geary has and the audience loved Frid and ways were found to rewrite the character, just like that was done with Luke, both on ABC by the way.
sussezq , thanks so much for the effort you went to upload all this. I've watched it all in order from the first clip in the play list, most of it for the first time since I was in school back then. Luke here reminds me of the heroes of the trashy bodice rippers I snuck out of my aunt's collection back then--macho bad boys who were also great lovers. It's all just fantasy and not a blueprint for a real-life relationship.
Once again.. Laura cared about LUke before all of this... and it really would be up to her whether she wanted to prosecute or not prosecute.... that was the whole point of the story. You may not have liked it, as a grown up you may have decided it was completely wrong.. but once again that is your personal opinion. I actually appreciate that Laura's empathy. Locking people up doesn't tend to make better people out of them. She did that by caring about him. Different because she did prior too.
Holy sweet mother of GOD. Ahem, this clip has about TWICE THE NUMBER OF VIEWS AS THE LAST ONE. I wonder why? More than four decades later and this scene is STILL HOT AF 🔥❤️🔥🔥❤️🔥🔥❤️🔥 The breathing. His moaning. This scene is smoldering, sensual, sexy, erotic, off the charts…I could go on. And they didn’t even undress….yet. If they are this smokin’ hot together fully clothed, I don’t even want to think what it will be like if Luke suddenly appears shirtless in a future scene. I think my mobile just might combust. And it’s brand new. Who else is watching in 2021 for the first time? I’m 50 now and only saw GH for the first time around 82-83ish. Thank god for YT and suzzieq. And Herb Alpert. I think I’m gonna load up his entire discography now.
This is why 30 million viewers got hooked on Luke and Laura! They don't make em like this no more!
So true. Make believe?? Well then imagination is one of life greatest gifts.
That kiss 💋🔥💋 finally…. 💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋
@meadowlark7182 Yes...and the tell me you don't want me line.... Wow. One of the most memorable moments.
They Sure Don't huh 😉
Ur right! Although we need another Luke,but we will never find one like him!
I am a newcomer to these clips…never watched gh before. I came across these by accident and am so grateful I did. First of all, the person who put all these together has done a wonderful job. Secondly, I am 59 years old and this is the most sensuous steamy unbelievably realistic love scene I have ever seen. On tv or big screen. No filthy talk, no groping. Just pure sensuality!!! And lastly I’d like to say that I would have given in to this man about 100 clips ago🔥
Oh yes….amen….
Yeah ...I've watched it on and off for years and I just got dizzy...I'm 51...😆

I seriously don't know how she didn't fall in love with Anthony Geary in real life...I know I would have lol...
Same here.... I used to watch Days with B&H and don't remember this much chemistry with them.
Well..she had just turned 18..just graduated high school. Tony was 32 yrs old. I saw an interview..where Genie answered that question by saying that..Tony was almost parental or big brother-like to her..in real life. Tony responded that he did feel like a protective big brother towards Genie. I guess that would explain their real life relationship.
@@budderkupp1282 That kind of made their scenes strange then.Brothers and sisters don't act this!!!
@@janetmyles8764 Well..acting and real life are completely different things. My son and my daughter were in their high school musical together and they had to play boyfriend & girlfriend in the play. They didn't have to kiss (thank God)..but they did have to hold hands and appear to be in love. Acting is acting..and the real life relationships can be very different from what you are seeing on the stage or screen.
Some scenes I can see,but the chemistry between Luke and Laura wasn't brother and sister!!!!
This is pure magic! I love it and can watch it over and over. They are the best and no one can touch them and their bond. They feed off each other.
The love of the century. Omg❤
The greatest couple in the history of soaps.
Absolutely! No-one can ever match these two! :)
Mayme Clayton I say Laura/Genie can hold her own in any situations She is strong.loving understanding and feisty. Laura can also be. a fighter for what she believes in.
@@7bear agree. Absolutely. They set the bar very high indeed.

Almost
Yes!!!!
He is soooooo sexy, that voice , those eyes. Even today it’s mesmerizing .
☝🏻🔥❤️🔥 TRUTH
Yes!!
Genie Francis is an amazingly talented actress, and it was crazy, insane, sick the product she put out at 17, 18 years old.
Hi there!! These are great. Thanks for uploading. And I see you said they are all from VHS tapes, and have many playlists, So let me ask you this. Would you also have Some Playlists that Continue the Allen/Monica/&Rick Saga's from let's say, the late 70s, like 1979, or 80? Boy, I'd really like to See those.😀👍. Please let me know, and thanks again so much for uploading these great episodes.👍👍.Love them!!😉👌👌❤️❤️.
She was pretty amazing I was so depressed when she left the show and so happy when she came back
@@lb1262dt I wonder if TG. Actually gets a woody during the scenes.
She consented before hand. Gloria monty talked with her farther and her. The both consented...Her farther could of said NO but didn't and she was old enough also to say NO NO
I completely lost it when he said/moaned, "Oh, baby." I had to pause it, so I could recover. lol!
Me too!! Where's the fan?? It's hot in here!!
@@cjbnoland7036 We all was upset any other questions?
Yes that one will get you every time!!
You do understand that this was after HE RAPED HER? I can appreciate the story, and get into it that way, but to actually buy into it and get turned on like it's some kind of legit romantic seduction? You're all fucking crazy.
We have watched all 135 chapters to this point. Some watched it the first time it aired in 1980. So yes everyone knows the context of everything that’s happened between them, and to them by others, up to this point. Have you even watched the whole story?? Their relationship is very complex and layered.
This was a HOT scene. I remember being on the edge of my seat wondering if someone was gong to come in on them. Tony G was so convincing. This is the Luke that deserved all those Emmys.
And so dose Lauralove Rosie
Amen!! How could either one of them walked away???
👍 yes
And they did all that with their clothes still on wow 🔥🔥🔥
Just my imagination... 🎵. Running away with me. 🌟 ❤️ 😔
I watch this story line and cannot believe that Genie Francis was only 17 years old. How unbelievably talented, and way too wise beyond her years.
O.M.G!!! I am fanning myself at the sure hotness of this clip! This is Luke and Laura at their finest! Love it! :)
archaeogeek25 Me too!!! ♡♡♡
COLD SHOWER,ANYONE?? 'CAUSE WE GOT SOME STEAM HEAT GOIN ' ON RIGHT HEAH'...I am squealing with delight right about now.....LOL!!
AMEN!
@@Imapeach1 I'm Luke & Laura didn't go all the way, they would of needed the fire Department to put out the fire.
@@eddiecater1429 Well,we see they did not consummate right here;they wouldn't have had the time,lol. This was great stuff for 3:00 in the afternoon. These 2 actors made GH,they gave GH a following of fans,unmatched,as evidenced by the fact that we're still here on YT...lo,these many years later...still watching and still talking about the greatest couple in soapdom.
Laura is just beautiful in every way conceivable! The hair, face, complexion...…...her eyes, eye brows, lips, teeth. ALL OF IT! She was just beautiful and of course, she still is. The chemistry here was like nothing I've ever seen. I have never seen anything before or sense. I loved watching them in 78 and on. What a wonderful couple. I got into L&L big time! LOL!
At 2:07 is the most beautiful shot of Laura I've ever seen. This is my ultimate favorite scene with Luke and Laura! Thanks!! I love this song also playing in the background towards the end called "Rotation"
So glad that Luke wasn't killed off of GH. The intensity of Luke & Laura was So🔥🔥🔥 & the music in the background makes the Love scene even hotter.
debra king the music is by Herb Alpert “Rise” album 😉. It was perfect!!!!!
And to think, he’s 33 and she’s only 18. Whew….. 💥🔥. I will always love their first kiss and the whole circumstances surrounding that the most, but boy this was what, 8 months later? And this just got way more intense….❤️🔥❤️🔥
The song is called “Rotation “.
@@MrsPenni-fd7ny Why do you suppose that? Luke stopped it? He’s so desperate for her why didn’t he go all the way?
@@MrsPenni-fd7ny why do you suppose that Luke Stopped it? He was so desperate for her. Why didn’t he go all the way?
What a gift. Thanks so much for posting these and taking us all back in history with the greatest soap couple of all time!!
The Amazing Attraction of Luke Spencer and Laura Webber Baldwin!..
Mercy! Leaves me breathless.
Jennifer is a tad bit dyslexic, 'I put the hubcut inside the car.' ... 2:45
messing up her lines was pretty consistent. That's what made LM so perfect for this part. She was so bad she was awesome........she played Jennifer SO perfect. I wonder what happened to her....
This is a treasure. Thank you for your hard work, Sus. We look at our own lives and use imagination and get lost in this beautiful love story of wild abandon. Many of us have our own memories and reflect on past lovers, crazy passion when life was so carefree. We love, seeing love. AG and GF captured a beautiful love, adoring each other, fighting, making up, forgiving and that sarcastic humor and they did it fully clothed. Not an easy task. Their chemistry is outstanding in these moments.
Here's how potently hot this scene is: the first time I found it on TH-cam I saw it as a stand alone and without it being in context of the full, complete storyline. And It was sizzling! Just like I remembered it all those years ago as elementary schooler. Now in proper context, watching it as an adult, it's a scorcher. The chemistry between TG and GF is palpable. It's so easy to see why GH became such a phenomenon, L&L such an iconic, supercouple. Classic L&L scene!
Can you say SIZZLE! Is it me or is it getting warm in here? Whew! ;)
The way TG kisses is magnetic!!!
All of us who were around when this incredible story line aired will never forget it. And it's just as good all these years later.
Yes it is you bet. 2 of a wonderful kind. And we are STILL writing about them.
Legends 🌟
@@yvonnecooper5004 Oh YES!!!
@@yvonnecooper5004 INDEED. Their chemistry, story line and personas were EPIC.
@@karenokeane6461 I still hope TG appears b4 the show ends or a tribute to both TG and GF b4 we lose them.
oh my goodness, it's 1979 I'm 12 years old and inlove with I'm in love with Anthony Geary all over again
I was in my early 20s & thought that I was the perfect age for Anthony Geary. LOL!! I dreamed of kissing him in the moonlight. Those were the days..and I loved every minute of my Tony Geary fantasies. :-) :-)
Yesssss!!!!
1981 is the year I graduated HS!!
Music Herb Albert jamming. Sounding good and jazzy!
I love that song by Herb Alpert & the Tijuana Brass!!! Perfect song for that scene!!
@Cheri Kugler. This is Herb Alpert solo material. The first song that plays the scene in pt 133 is Street Life then it changes to Rotation when things start getting ❤️🔥😉. Both on the 1979 album RISE (the song from that night at the disco)
What was remarkable is that they kept this "seduction" thing going on for nearly a year and never missed a beat. The writing, acting, pacing, direction - it was ALL there. The left handed boy story was great but the early L&L seduction was brilliant.
Yes, and they don't write character driven drama like this anymore. They are so obsessed with LAME plots current soaps are missing this.. and this is what made them so good!
sussezq
I like the way someone else phrased it in a comment also, they write for the attention deficit, quick plots with little substance now.
We used to say, "we could skip months of a soap and still catch up", not now storylines go by fast.
This is so fun coming back thru watching again and reading all the new comments.
The stories in all TV and film today, 90% are garbage. Just puerile junk. I majored in Film. I can only watch UK/ foreign stuff where they try to develop characters and the writing is miles above what Hollywood has to offer...
Yes. The first one was the best story for this fan. ❤️
@@yvonnecooper5004 Why do you suppose that he stopped it? He was so desperate for her. Why didn’t he go all the way?
No one can take from Luke and Laura fans what they feel for the characters. Laura is able to forgive Luke and she already cared for him before that night. That is why she was able to forgive him. It isn't as if she fell in love with some horrible monster after the fact. If others can't forgive Luke or understand that Laura had feelings for him long before that night, don't watch them together.
Preach it... yes, amen!
Yes that is sooo right on thank you Rosie
OMG! Please throw a bucket of cool water on me. I LOVE this scene! Talk about chemistry! Wowsers!!! 🤩🥰😍🥰🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥😍😍😍😍❤❤❤❤
Now this is romance.
The Audience Is SCREAMING
You bet. One of their most memorable scenes.
And while you’re at it grab another bucket of water and throw it on me🔥🔥
I keep replaying this.
I have said it before: TG and GF had the kind of chemistry that I have not seen before or since this episode aired. On the small or big screen.
This was the best era of GH ever!
No argument there.
Genie Frances has the right amount of innocence and passion,stretch and reaction,she got even sharper with this role and had more layers than her beauty might convey. She blends perfectly with Anthony Gearys ooooooh sexiness or something ..that is chemistry and both of them have real acting talent
They are matched. Super couple! Best pair in soapie drama, ever! These scenes are turn ons. Thanks for these playlists, excellent!
I *love* watching him break down her reserve...Laura was always reluctant to face her true feelings. Luke never let her get away with denying them. That's why he was a much better match for her than Scott. Scotty wanted to put a nice, shiny gloss over everything; Luke was able to face the unvarnished truth. Namely, they wanted each other!!!
"Please, do you want me Laura?" The bottom just dropped out of my stomach! Could *any* woman withstand this kind of temptation?! The moaning is unreal!!!
How gorgeous were these two? Social comments aside, I don't know who made who look better in this scene.
We all found these two irresistible back then. Because their story was such a slow burn, we couldn't wait for the next day!
Tell me, Tell me, please..... it was never Rape!! Oh baby!!!!!! So hot
They both made each other look wonderful gorgeous sexy hot and mind blowing cool. There acting is more then outstanding over the rainbow crazy in love with each other. Luke &Laura make us a call think that there love would last a life time. Like forevermore. Just like a gift from God sealed with pray and a blessing. Love. Rosie
Sorry all I think
LUKE WAS UGLY LOL
Oh this stuff has distracted me from lots of real life difficulties! (We call it Luke and Laura therapy around these parts!!!) ... and now isn't that what art is supposed to do! ..and in that vein this is all masterful... not just the acing but the entire production.. really incredible and anyone who was employed by GH back then should be EXTREMLY proud of their work. It has stood the test of time!
IT IS FOR ME. LNL THERAPY
@Sussezq- you are a GODDESS for posting all these playlists. First time I'd ever seen this clip. WOW. WOW. WOW. Have watched it a few times now. LOL.
Had completely forgotten about Luke and Laura. But now I'm totally obsessed and working my way thru all of your L+L playlists. All my other shows are on hold until I watch all of the clips through 1982.
I've been binge-watching since last week. Just caught up to late 1981. Scotty has returned and destroyed the divorce decree. I know what's coming down the road. And I am dreading IT. So, I paused where I was at and came back to watch this clip again to cheer myself up.
I don't understand why GH hasn't released DVDs or set up online streaming at Netflix or HULU with all the L+L scenes? Don't they understand they'd make a fortune? Sigh...maybe one day...
p.s.I have a friend who loves GH. Told her about finding these playlists and she's hooked now too!
Thanks so much for your very kind note and letting me know you are enjoying. Makes all the hours uploading worth it. It is just fabulous entertainment and that is true. Goddess huh? People have been very kind and thoughtful about expressing their appreciation (...and I hope that for every time they thank me they send 100 letters to the prospect studio for Ms. Francis and Mr. Geary)... but that one made me LOL. :-) It won't be any less entertaining your second or third time through... and you know you'll go there! We all do! ;-)
msbadkittie I agree, these episodes need to be released on DVD or streamed with the music rights included. They are really good!
@@sussezq Happy New Year & I hope 2020 will be better for you than 2019. I am hoping for Luke Spencer citing in late 2020. GOD BLESS

omg... loving this all over again! thanks so much for posting this.
Mickie Bise Thanks so much for watching.. and commenting!! :-)
It is probably a good thing that i didn't find these 5+ years ago when you first posted..I don't know that I could have waited since I have been binge watching your posts since i found it.. my hubby thinks that I have lost my mind! lol I forgot how much i really loved this show back in the day.. and what a reminder of what it was like with no cell phones, google, etc. It really gives the younger generation a good look at how far technology has really advanced!
The husbands never understand! lol
oh man. this is simply breathtaking.
Luke: "I love you, I love you".
good stuff.
Genie was only 17 at the time.
But is was recorded ahead of the air date, so it was around her 18th birthday when they recorded this probably.
oh my
I read somewhere Tony wasn’t to happy she was so young. Doubt if they’d do that today
@@amysusan100 Probably. In the real world Gene Francis is 2 1/2 months older than I am.
The age difference between the actors themselves (a minor and an adult) were too much, but in soap operas it can be almost any age difference (as long as it's not a child/teen having that kind of relationship with an adult.)
Fifteen years is too much a gap between a minor and an adult, but (17 verses 32) but once you're over 21 verses 36 it's not so much except for life's experiences. And once you're 58 and 73 the difference is less mote; and 73 verses 88 you're "twins separated at birth from different mothers."
@@lajmh my friend's parents were him 31 & her 15 when they got married about 60 yrs ago.
Wow! That was insanely intense!!!!!!!!!
Thank you so much for putting this together! I'm loving watching Luke and Laura from the beginning. I was in 9th grade when this came on, and I rushed home to every episode.
Whoever you are, I love you !.. ..that's what I wanted to write you, the other night .Because I needed a distraction and I chanced upon this. It took me back to being that 12 year old little girl that was into drama ( though I understand the scene better now and still appreciate its artistry) .As for the scene above ..oh my goodness ,the chemistry, among the best ever seen ,then and now. I know now your name is Susie and I think your wonderful, for posting this and appreciating great acting
No wonder Elizabeth Taylor was on this shoe ..he's a young Richard Burton,Steve McQueen,Marlon Brando,Humphrey Bogart,Clark Gable all rolled up into one !.. he's sexy ,good, handsome..what a girl needs romantically ..name me one young actor ,just one with the sex appeal of the aforementioned stars
Yes and even at 72 he’s still hot. The voice... the way he moves. That KISS!
Tony Geary and Elizabeth Taylor were involved in a secret relationship for several years. I think she was on the show because she was crazy for Luke too.
this brings back memories when they were young and inlove...thanks for the flash back
Scotty's line - If I know anything about my wife is that if she's expecting me she waits for me....I guess he learned that the hard way!
Wow truer words were ever spoken. Forget about it honey time will tell.
SCOTTY, YOU DON'T KNOW YOUR WIFE....AND PS SHE IS NOT YOURS FOR LONG.
It was a love story like no other. GH should have left it alone. They were great together.
Linda Stulick
If I am not mistaken it was Tony's doing to not have them together anymore?
Sadly yes 😔
They deserved a better ending.
Yes they should have left them alone. If they had a better ending would have been written for them.
Pure Luke and Laura before the Cassadines. Love it!
The Cassadines spelled the beginning of the end for Luke and Laura
Thank goodness for “delete watched history” I must be insane. I keep watching the same episodes. It’s sexy, real AND not corny romantic. Holy crap Batman 😳🥰
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂❤❤❤❤😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😅😅😅😅
100% guilty here as charged also. OMG, they are so damn hot together. When you consider Tong is a Gay man in real life that just makes their relationship MORE incredable!!!!
@@yevettebamber4273 Exactly
Same here with the delete watch history 😂
@@kristaramirez4111 why do you suppose that He stopped it. He was so desperate for her. How could you just stop?
Oh my...luke and Laura deserve their own channel! Oh how I love them!
@sussezq I never saw this scene when it originally came out. I once read that Luke & Laura almost made love on a sailboat & I told myself I don't remember that scene until I saw your scenes. Thanks
Wow, I don't even know what to say about this clip. Luke really took a gamble. I'm surprised he could stop his seduction at the point that Laura wanted him too. He's wanted her for so long. Very intense!
Mercy!🔥 this is fire!
Hot couple....even hotter scene! Yes Luke Yes!!!!
Gosh Luke had Laura right where he wanted her and he stopped. That was just plain torture I think Laura was more mad at the fact that Luke stopped what was happening. Then she tried to play it off like she was really mad about the door being locked.
Remember Luke was just trying to get Laura to admit to her love for him. Stopping was cruel, I agree, but understandable as Luke wanted to make a point and made it, so his mission was over and he ended it.
@2006bbbb1 I don't think it was realistic that Luke stopped kissing her so quickly though. Luke has been waiting/wanting this moment for so long!! He thought he could never have her, now she wants him desperately. He's madly in love with her and to finally have her reciprocate! I think he would have been incapable of stopping that quick. Impossible. If I directed this scene I would have had them kiss longer after her admission...
I agree. She was probably a little embarrassed as well because Luke had caught her out and he was the one in control all of the sudden
@@lisah9709 He kinda had to stop because he did make his point and also Scott and Bobbie, and the other two could shoe up at any moment. I really wanted them to go all the way though
Back in my growing up days Curling Irons, Electric Curlers/Rollers which is what I used, and Hairspray!
Ok, so I posted my comment too prematurely..lol.Thought we would get to this scene. And I will just say it again, Genie Francis OWNS this scene. I'm still blown away someone so young could convey such desire, especially when the actor she's with is significantly older. One of the ALL TIME hottest scenes ever filmed. God, I need ice water.
true
I am glad you feel the context helps. It confirms my beliefs and desire to put up the whole story. The independent scenes are great, but I didn't think you could get the full effect without understanding "why". The encouragment is always helpful! Thank you!
I love how he says, "Oh baby" 😍
Every time I come across this, I have to stop and watch🥰
I remember watching this scene and it was a sizzler then and now. Genie Francis was so beautiful. The chemistry was on fire during this sailboat scene. Too bad GEnie Francis is not paired with Luke anymore. No one can replace these two in the chemistry dept.
This has always been my big addiction.
You have millions of us to keep you company.
This a scene I just keep watching over and over!!! can't help it!! WOW!
Absolutley love this L&L moment. Both TG and GF are amazing! Again I never saw this the first time around. Oh and Jen is about as helpful as a box of rocks! I am so glad to see this now! I cant to see right before they go on the run and what leads up to it ! I had only seen little scenes here and there . So excited to see it all! Subscrber for life!!!
Watching these edited clips is a luxury I wish I had back in '79. I remember my screams of anguish when the show would cut away to some other storyline!
Yeah, OK. I agree that Luke's relationship with Tracey fills some kind of need for Luke. I know he suffered when he'd visit her and she was out of it.Some of this kind of garbagecould be solved if the writing was better. I think that if they brought Genie back she and Luke would go back to where they were...some people are just meant to be!!!
This scene is so explosively sensual. Wow.
My favorite sensual scene of Luke and Laura's!
Love that music!
Yes there is a difference from 35 to 75 but he is still the greatest ❤
Sensual is the understatement of a LIFETIME but well said!!!!!!
"OH MY GOD"!!! this scene is so steamy and hot I can barley stand it they had more then chemistry they were blowing up the screen and they didn't even have to take off their clothes :)
Jasmine Settle For real!! I had to fan myself lol
Very true... can’t hardly breathe. How could she not fall for him in real life ??? “ you have to say the words, PLEASE!!!!!!”
I agree. He had to be in love with her. I have never seen any actor kiss like that on TV ( back in the day ). It’s obvious it’s much deeper than “ just acting “. Help us Lord!!
@@stephaniefoster1172 He’s actually married to a man unfortunately
HELLO IS IT GETTING HOT IN HERE OR IS IT SPENCER TIME! Luke is about to do his thing and Laura better watch out!*
Best love scene on any screen💞
Jeeeesus, I was so looking forward to finally seeing this beautifully hot, sizzling scene of the greatest supercouple of all time and I cannot believe you have been bombarded with so many "rape is rape" comments. WTF! I'm amazed how much spare time people find to preach social awareness especially where it's not needed and specifically for the purpose of creating dystopia. AND by people who have waaay too much time on their hands and no idea what they are talking about. Dude, in 2015, we're still on this??? And after you've obviously worked to create this channel, convert, transfer and post all of this GH footage so its archived here for everyone? I'm astounded by the coward-like behavior of these commenters hiding behind their screens and bitching crudely instead of doing something useful with their opinions (go take down some corrupt legislators, perhaps!). Luke and Laura are a legacy and they've proven that. I certainly hope you didn't remove the Sailboat Seduction clip because of anyone's ignorance. It's a great one! 💋 Thank YOU for all of the clips you've posted! And fyi, this one was incredibly *seductive* and passionate! I don't think any love scene ever surpassed it. There was something about the way he "talked" her into the seduction - wow. 🔥 No unbuttoning of clothes, no skin, nadda. This was so much more intense! 😘 Luke and Laura forever! 💋💋💋
You're crazy, this was creepier than the actual rape scene.
@@rodjohnson3045 Yes many say it was. I for one say yes;yes it was no is no. I mean what part of NO dont anyone understand? Hello but remember they had to set it up as subduction it was the 80s dont you know. They had to make it seem that way. For TV audience back then. Ask me why I dont know only the writers know for sure we just went with the flow at that time. Sorry I wish I knew love Rosie
OMG! DO YOU WANT TO BE MY BEST FRIEND?!?! LOL I AGREE WITH YOU. I keep watching and sharing this specific episode. It was so GREAT, that those two should’ve been REALITY TV. There is no way!!! that they didn’t hook up outside the show at some point!!! I choose to believe that. The way that they turned then”rape” into seduction was brilliant. What do you think my new friend? Ha ha ha... and yes! the way that he spoke to her, his voice, out of breath while he gives her the key!!!!!! I screamed within!!!!!! I’m crazy and I missed the whole GH experience because my mom and grandmother were into Peyton Place, then Another World and in time the Bold and The Beautiful! Oh well... never too late. STILL RELEVANT! “Never never’s a short time with you BAY-BEE”!!! Aaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪 I have time on my hands because I’m an early retiree, and once I’m down with all that I need want and live to do, I have time to binge watch GH... are you watching the whole thing??? Don’t worry I’m not a stalker. Happily married, mom of my amazing 17 year young Only. I loved what you wrote. Calling out the hypocrites Hee hee!
Sometimes I wonder about people who protest too much. Seems like they’re trying to be so politically correct. Obviously the audience chose many years ago to go on this exciting ride with L&L!
@@judithjerde1574 Yes we did I guess we all thought that ride would last forever. With a few stops along the way. We never really thought that ride would come to a complet break down all together. I guess there are things you just can't get fixed? Thank you. For all of those memories. Live Rosie
Love how Jen talks to Bobbi and Claudia and she expects them to be in her wedding....nice! lol
Lucky Genie Francis got to kiss Anthony Geary!
Genie Francis. The face that launched 30 million viewers!
So true!
@@sussezq Love Genie as you can tell 😊😊😊!
Also there are plenty of people who know what the initial intention was... Luke Spencer was supposed to die 13 weeks later in Laura's arms. Re-writes happen all of the time on soap operas... and the truth is MILLIONS of people would have accepted anything tptb manipulated to watch the amazing acting team of Geary and Francis for the years we were able.
When there were feelings in people not so today 😢
On the surface this is a simple seduction. Cheaply, Laura just cheated on Scott. But it's SO much more than that. Laura is 18 and loaded with societal expectations and judgements...she married a boy who would ground her in respectability but leaves her (and us) flat. Then she meets a ferral man that turns her inside out. She has no idea what this is, how to handle it, what to do... And all of that shows on Genie's face. What a performance!
Luke was on fire here! Totally irresistible. This scene has replays on replays and still women are catching up to it every day. There's not a woman alive that wouldn't cave here. It's on par with any bodice-ripper romance novel out there. Bravo Tony!
Every time I watch this I notice something new. Theses can be written in Media Studies classes, Acting classes, writing classes, for Years about this relationship and it's unfolding. Just brilliant!
So we’ll said❤
I so agree! With everything! Genie Francis and Anthony Geary's brilliance! What's more...what is so evident...is how Anthony Geary took a writer's script and totally worked it for that character to be sexy, relevant to the time period.
@mowthpeece1 very true. It is possible to notice or feel something new each time. Quite an observation. I agree with you that it was probably reworked to mote closely fit the characters personalities.
I kinda like this music in the background. LOL
Street Life - Herb Alpert
This version of Luke is much better than the 2010’s version. He had a definite moral core.
I love how Scotty bosses Jennifer around, something she is not used to.
Luke and Laura Forever❤
As someone who wasn't even born yet when this aired watching this is amazing! I watched plenty of soaps with my mom growing up but not general hospital. I'm obsessed with their story!
For those of you following along with the discussion below. No not all LnL fans condone rape. Geesh. Not judging those of you who couldn't swallow it. Understand. But we see things from our own experiences and perspectives. Yes Luke was wrong, he was also emotionally dispondant and drunk.. off his game. Misinterpreting things. Laura was confusing. Her caring was not a license to anything, but rest assured there was serious miscommunicaton because of all of those factors. I appreciated the tale.
I suppose some could say it was Fluke that raped Laura. Although, I think that emotions are so complex that it is naive to judge what others do. I watched this in real time back in the day, in my early twenties and felt empathy for both sides, because the acting was so well done.
I get the moral argument, but more than anything I'd say most people didn't see the original (clearly) rape scene and the show retconned it. Tony stumbles over the word "seduction" here, I think to show his recognition that it was rape or to show us that Luke does indeed know it was rape but had a mission here and was just saying that at this moment.
SoapSudsyBubbles.. rape is portrayed in soaps all of the time. It was written that way with intention for Luke to die shortly afterwards in the botched Mitch Williams attempt. So how it was written in the first place was never played out, and switched mid stream. Most recons are a little off, and jar the audience. Many came on board to GH after the whole incident and didn't even realize there were re-writes, some watched and were fine because they did adore the acting team, some found the story compelling and appreciated the serious flaws in the characters, some still can't stand it to this day. However because TH-cam didn't exist it couldn't be under the scrutiny it is now. You couldn't go back and watch, you had to take what they played.. and they seriously played it down for a couple decades only to rehash in the 90's when they were looking for material to throw a monkey wrench into LnL.
I assumed they story was changed from Luke dies after raping Laura to keeping him alive because viewers seem to favor Luke and Laura from the moment Luke started to defend Laura from his sister.
@@orlandobabe Well the reason it was changed is because Luke was supposed to die and Roy was supposed to live. But the actor that played Roy got a night time gig. So they decided, with the increasing popularity of the Luke and Laura scenes, to just let Roy die instead and then try to play the tale that they had shown to that point down. There was no youtube, not many folks had VCRs when it was gone, it was gone, and so many people were intrigued by the acting team that they felt it was an okay business decision. They obviously weren't wrong.
This is also what happened over a decade before with the Barnabas Collins character in Dark Shadows. The evil vampire was supposed to be tracked down and staked after 13 weeks. But like Anthony Geary, Jonathan Frid had that vulnerability that Geary has and the audience loved Frid and ways were found to rewrite the character, just like that was done with Luke, both on ABC by the way.
sussezq , thanks so much for the effort you went to upload all this. I've watched it all in order from the first clip in the play list, most of it for the first time since I was in school back then. Luke here reminds me of the heroes of the trashy bodice rippers I snuck out of my aunt's collection back then--macho bad boys who were also great lovers. It's all just fantasy and not a blueprint for a real-life relationship.
Once again.. Laura cared about LUke before all of this... and it really would be up to her whether she wanted to prosecute or not prosecute.... that was the whole point of the story. You may not have liked it, as a grown up you may have decided it was completely wrong.. but once again that is your personal opinion. I actually appreciate that Laura's empathy. Locking people up doesn't tend to make better people out of them. She did that by caring about him. Different because she did prior too.
Holy sweet mother of GOD.
Ahem, this clip has about TWICE THE NUMBER OF VIEWS AS THE LAST ONE. I wonder why?
More than four decades later and this scene is STILL HOT AF 🔥❤️🔥🔥❤️🔥🔥❤️🔥
The breathing. His moaning. This scene is smoldering, sensual, sexy, erotic, off the charts…I could go on. And they didn’t even undress….yet. If they are this smokin’ hot together fully clothed, I don’t even want to think what it will be like if Luke suddenly appears shirtless in a future scene. I think my mobile just might combust. And it’s brand new.
Who else is watching in 2021 for the first time? I’m 50 now and only saw GH for the first time around 82-83ish. Thank god for YT and suzzieq. And Herb Alpert. I think I’m gonna load up his entire discography now.
Yes. Phenomenal.
Welcome any new fans here. Forever a Luke and fan ❤️
I remember watching this in real time! I freaked out! This was a Friday cliffhanger. 😮
Well, here I am again...getting my "sailboat" fix!!! ok, nuff said...now off to the next scene :-) sussezq, your site makes me sooo happy!
Luke and Laura timeless love
