Yes you are solo right hon. No other day time soap couple can or could ever kiss the way in which Luke & his Laura did! Ever JMVHO! Loving Luke & his Laura... Ever! Rosie.
What kind of acting lessons did they give this crazy hippy actor, back in the late 60's ..he's so good .. He's a senior citizen today for Petes sake ,he should be giving all the younger guys lessons on how it's done ! Like the kids say..this guys so smoking hot here, he could melt a nun and all kinds of girls and uh so forth .Anthony Gearys technique is so perfect..his voice his movements ..Did Rudolph Valentino give him lessons ? These actors deserved all the Oscars just for the above scene
especially considered his sexual preferences. He should have opened an acting school but GF and these early LnL SLs were what made him looking so hot and sexy(plus the perm and lean body). I don't find him one bit attractive in his last years on GH. He looks old and boring. I have a hard time to believe it's actually the same person. But this applies to most of us, we change so much as the time goes by..
Yes knowing his sexual preference and it has been well known for many years too I am in total awe of tony g in these Love Scenes!! He is making me feel everything Laura is really feeling omg and I don't know how lol !! He must be pulling from his real life relationships and wow they must be deep and very romantic 💜 Where O Where is my Tony G lol I don't want to just watch these scenes anymore !! Love LnLforever Dreaming and Hoping every nite 🥰
IMO this scene from about 4:20 until the end of the clip is the most convincing kissing scene they have ever done. More so than the honeymoon, more so than the boat scene or any other. As if they were not aware of anyone but each other.
Yea, it finally looked real. No concern for blocking or lighting... Like they were into it. They're very good actors. I wish they had acted more like this from the beginning.
I believe it's "I'm in the Mood for Love". It was playing when they were in Wyndham's Dept. store also, when they were dining on the caviar and champagne. I love it!!
Wowza! Hottest scene in soap ever!! It's the sensual yearning, desperation, intensity, they have for one another. Not like today's soap. I would rather have that anticipation with these two. They do it so well. I could watch this over and over.😍
This is one really hot scene. And I feel that it's that way because of the truism of the actors. Genie casually hooking up the front of her dress. Tony with his tie off and shirt half unbuttoned, and picking up his jacket off of the floor. That is a good "make out" session when you have to readjust your clothing. It gave a sense that they have been dipping into each others' clothes. And I know the next scene gets even hotter !!/:)
@@lynnmoore7029 WHERE DOES THE ACTING STOP AND REAL KISSES START. TONY, WAS ASKED WHAT WAS IT LIKE KISSING GENIE/LAURA, AND HE SAID " REAL GOOD, REAL GOOD..." I BELIEVE THAT THEY BOTH ENJOYED THE KISSING SCENES TOGETHER. ( LNL CODE I W T W T S W L BREAK THE CODE.)
I just watched this scene today actually.. your comment.. yeah.. I am thinking that Luke is SUPERhuman here.. there is no man, none, I have ever known that could show that much restraint.... and we all know Luke isn't really into denying his vices....No way he would have left at that point... and I agree.. I think this is the hottest scene they ever did.. and TG is extremely sexy. (and Ms. Francis GORGEOUS!)
I think part of the charm and enchantment of LnL is exactly that they made them keep waiting and waiting. Making out, dancing, telling each other how they feel but still waiting. It kept the audience wanting more.
However, I think they dragged the no sex thing a little too far. I mean they have only made love that one night at Beechers Corners. They could have let them have tonight. Then they go on the summer adventure. To have them wait till after they are married and on their honeymoon was torture for us, lol.
They could have had sex all the time. The audience would never have gotten bored. That's the difference when you have actors who have amazing chemistry. The narrative becomes much less important. LnL were super exciting when they were making a casserole!😍💯💯
I personally, think AG was much more attracted to Genie Francis than he will EVER admit!!!! I think he was jealous of Jonathan Fracks, to a certain extent! Yes, I know AG is supposedly gay, "I think bisexual, " but I do think he was in love with Genie, at least to an extent!
This & the sailboat scene are two of the HOTTEST scenes I've ever seen anywhere. I sincerely don't know how two people can fake this kind of lust..lol.
They weren’t faking - I believe that to my very core. Why do you think that she and Kin broke up when they introduced Luke (TG) to the show? It destroyed their real life relationship. So one is THAT good an Afro or actress. Anyway that’s my take on it and I LOVE IT! Btw look from 128 until after the boat... OMG it’s one heavy must after another. The tension is palpable.
@@jbird4754 yep, Tony and Genie always said that they were just friends. Sorry I dont believe it. Nobody is that good an actor. He also said in an interview that they made a pact to never talk about their love life.
He's gay. Sorry. I know it's hard to accept. If it had gotten out back then it would have destroyed their ratings. We like to fantasize a lot out here, as you can see. We WANT them to be real so much that we ignore that they're ACTORS. Exceptional ones.
What makes Anthony Geary such a beautiful actor is his desire to deliver greatness.and Genie Francis who's a kid here (18 ?) unbelievable..to project older and maturity so convincingly ..such talent.. Not 1 kid actress on the show today can pull of a scene like this,with an older actor, without her looking stupid and he improper. I'm gonna get my bratty ,21 year old niece Melody to watch this ..this a a great performance..not those goofy MTV shows she watches
You are so right Barbara go, hon, go tell your 21 year old niece. Who knows may, just maybe shewill learn something she needed to know. Maybe it will help her open her eyes before she gets serious about some man someday. Thanks Rosie
@@kathylanda681 So I was referring to the acting, the performances, right, no one said, find a rapist to love like Luke,silly, it's acting, it's make believe, remember, no one said to emulate these old sl in reality, but to appreciate the performances. I think the producer's mistake then, was to have the character of Luke do something evil, which in reality ,there would be no redemption for, and it marred an otherwise beautiful storyline, with an onscreen couple, that had beautiful chemistry, credit goes to both these fine actors from GH, but inspite of the serious dated flaws of this story, it was still a great storyline, and it was still acting,still make believe, still art.
This whole series of scenes from the dinner to the docks to this was beautiful. I often think that Genie did not get enough credit for her great acting along with Tony during this time: he got a lot of the credit at the time. Luke Spencer would never have been so loved and popular without the way Genie played Laura. The way she saw him was how the audience saw Luke, Also she was acting out scenes that maybe she had not done yet in her real life. And she played them so well. And in later years Laura became this very wise young woman who always had a way with the younger characters on the show: even before she was a mother in real life. She brings do much warmth and depth to her scenes,
To have this much chemistry together they must have really bonded in life like no other team in history ....love these two..❤❤ thank you TG and GF for showing us what true love was all about ...❤
If we sleep together tonight it'll just complicate an already complicated situation...really? I don't buy it...I feel sorry for Laura, it's pretty clear she had something else in mind!
Once again role reversal from the year before. Last year it had to be perfect for Laura, now Luke wants it to be perfect. Geez! Can't TPTB let them get a little crazy without all the guilt trips. Not the 1980's I remember.
MsChemicalEngineer, if they slept together, could Luke fear that Laura may repeat the Beechers Corner situation and regret it the next day? I just don’t think a normal guy would turn her down at a passionate time like this!! Poor Luke!
My husband was very quiet normally, sweet, shy, nobody would have ever suspected he could kiss like that. But every time I watch these I see him, he was blonde too. And we waited til we were married, so I remember a couple of dates like this. Guys like that really exist, it's a lucky woman who gets him. I had 43 years with mine, and even at 65 he was the same way. Pays to wait!
@@martahuling3603 How many men in their early 30s are going to turn down sex. Especially the way they’re going at it here. Luke must be super human man. What’s it been like a year?
I just saw a video of "The Men of General Hospital" on Phil Donahue with Anthony Geary, Doug Sheehan, Stuart Damon and Tristan Rogers. The audience asked questions of the men. Someone asked TG how it felt to kiss Laura and he said "real good" "real good". Ooops. I see that Suss commented on that channel about that video so it apparently is only new to me.
The only video I could find of this was muffled so you couldn't understand what was being said, can you show the link for the video you found? I'd love to watch it. Thank you
I just noticed hearing TG's wrist watch ticking also. Those Mics are sensitive... I wonder if it is a Timax Watch that takes a licking and keeps on ticking just like the Energizer Bunny? Which would also describes the Love that WE KNOW that is between Luke and Laura!
...And always will be. Never could there be two like Luke & his Laura who can love each other like these two can or still could. No body not Holly,Anna,Hreather, Felicia and Alex or Jennifer Skye never Tracy never nore any women could ever. JMHO. Love. Rosie
Its cute how Laura wants Luke to tell her "I love you" over and over all night long. Its just like the reverse of this in the Whittaker's barn the summer before when Laura first says to Luke "I love you" and he wants to hear it over and over again.
I think he was over it a long time ago... the major issue is that he didn't feel like he had anything to offer her... that is why he NEEDS this money so badly and wouldn't move forward until he felt like he had it in his pocket..... so if that is the case what did he have to offer her in 2008? Nothing.. and he is a tortured soul because of it!! JMHO
During the left handed boy he had nothing to offer and didn't care that much or it did not affect the fact that he wanted her badly all summer and it didn't matter that they were in terrible danger. This s/l is not consistent with Disco Luke or Summer Luke...this Luke is ok with being a total monk...🤔🧐🤨makes zero sense!!
OK, what man runs out on Genie at this point? I think that Luke is so hot' and I remember telling my boyfriend he needed to watch Luke for pointers. This was so hot...remember what it was like to be young and really into each other? No money, but a ton of passion (or lust, LOL!!!)! OK time for a cold shower!!!!
YOu know and it annoys me... In a Jan. 2006 clip Luke was telling Lulu about the walls of Jericho and stated "your mom was kind of old fashioned".. seemed a little condescending to me, or perhaps he was trying to make lulu not feel so badly (?), but what was he here.... "old fashioned" ???? It was the perfect opportunity to tell his daughter that perhaps one should wait until things are right to take that step in a relationship. She needed it!
This is one of my favorite clips. I notice TG in a lot of these scenes where he was kissing her his shirt is untucked 😂 🤷🤦♀️ I'm not trying to sound bad I'm just saying I think it's untucked to hide something. 😂
I’ve always noticed that and I think that he used to keep them manicured... at times they even seemed to have a bit of a tinge to them...? I didn’t want to say anything so as not to be called a hater! Lol! What a show!! That was NOT ACTING. I like to believe that they were crazy about one another... but that’s just me and a MILLION OTHER WOMEN AND MEN🤪🤪🤪🤪❣️
@dgprincess23 I do believe it was supposed to be at least a decade. Laura was only 17 when they first met.. Luke was not supposed to be 23. I think he was supposed to be in at least his late 20's hence about a decade age difference. Scott had finished law school.. which would put him at about 26.. and Luke was older.
Thank you.. but what about Holly? I think he did kiss her like this too? What do u guys think?I thought I heard some where that TG was in love with Elizabeth Taylor and Emma Samm well that is what I heard. Ok thank u love. Rosie
I think if they showed then what they show on tv now the sex scenes would have been so hot between Luke and Laura we wouldn't been able to control ourselves...lol
I have to remind myself that as much as I loved the idea of TG and GF together back then, Genie was only 18. At her age I thought someone TG's age was OLD! Or at least middle aged. TG just seems so much younger than he is.
Oh yes. I slipped. Luke seems so much younger than TG's age. I have seen clips of TG at roasts and a couple other things and he was really high energy and seemed that he could be in his twenties imo. But Luke is really much younger than TG it seems.
@@lisah9709 You’re so right, my same thoughts all along. In real life, they’d be humping like rabbits They could’ve had sex all the time and we would not have gotten bored. I feel sorry for Laura here because he’s already said they’re not gonna make love and yet he’s nibbling on her ear.
@dgprincess23 Yeah! There's that too.. wasn't even thinking that.. but yes.. bobbi was an Rn.. so .. and Luke was supposed to be quite a few years older than bobbi even.. when there mom died she was supposed to be very little, and he was old enough to get them to Florida to Ruby's.. so at least 5 or 6 years older than Bobbi, who was a few years older, at least, than Laura.
He wasn't, she bearded alot of her gay male co-stars and friends through the years. It was super normal in Hollywood then and still is for actors to cover for each other.💞
No body kisses Laura the way Luke dose ever. No body..and no body kisses Luke the way his Laura kisses him right back. No not no body.. IMHO. Love. Rosie
Why is he so worried about a clean slate now?He was planning on marrying her from the beginning.He hounded her to take her wedding ring off all summer so they could make love.He thought she was being crazy,now he is the one being crazy.
@@judithjerde1574 They just have to keep us chomping at the bit!Luke would have never had thought 2 seconds about them being together the past summer,clean slate or not!He didn't care about money then,he wanted her and he wanted them married.That was all he cared about!
@lady5089 I agree.. this was the hottest scene they did IMHO.. hotter than the sailboat, hotter than the honeymoon.... and yes Luke is superhuman here... walking out that door my a...... ;-) (You didn't shock anyone.. we're all grown ups.. well now we are........ lots of us weren't back in 81 though! lol)
So does anyone know what the song is playing in the background of this scene around the 2:30 mark (not the previous "I'm In The Mood For Love" instrumental, the following song please)? It's so damned sexy, I've got to know!
So this Luke with all his restraint and wanting to do what's right has now turned into the Luke that a skirt chasing drunk. I hate what they have done to his character.
Yeah... it stinks.... I understand the man he becomes without Laura, I also understand that Luke doesn't like to be so vulnerable... so he doesn't want to go back there... but I will never understand the paranoid Luke I know well who doesn't get that Laura's catatonia and missing in Paris could be caused by the Cassedine's... and regardless of what he wants for himself.. he would never let anyone hurt her. I mean THAT is where the story should go eventually. Then he can kick himself for being so brain dead the thought didn't even come to him.
sussezq Laura's missing now? And didn't Scotty come back divorced? Why the hell use the stupid catatonia illness used in soap operas. Really rare and old, like amnesia! lol!
Oh sooo I, so do I. I can’t think that this is the end of my love affair with GH now. I can’t and will not watch GH ever,ever again it hurts just to much. It breaks my heart in two.... thank you so sad. Rosie
I hate what they did to there characters both of them...wait no many a characters where ruined because the did not fellowMs. Monty’s beautiful recipe’s of love and happiness. Which made GH #1. For many years. Remember over 30 million know the true meaning of LnL love magic.. thank you. Love. Rosie
Yes I have to agree with you + JMHO about half of the30 million+ are on the same page No trouble my name on that list is the TOP one Rosann Coleman Rosie out.
THERE,S NO GUESS WORK AS TO WHY LUKE COVER,S HIMSELF WHEN HE STANDS UP, WITH HIS JACKET , IN FRONT,, THAT SCENE WOULD MELT SAINT,,, AND LUKE,S NO SAINT, AS LUKE SAY,S,, HE DOSE'T EVEN LIKE THEM,, 7/8/17
There is NO WAY Luke could resist!! I don't believe that for a million years. Laura is so beautiful and wants him badly. I don't believe it. I don't care what he says about starting fresh. They've ALREADY slept together!!! This is just a plot device to keep ratings up...annoying 😖
Did anyone notice the way that Luke's fingers are shaking while he is touching Laura's face at about 1:35? She's asking him if he's gotten over the hurt. It would seem unusual for Tony G. to be nervous? Any thoughts? I don't think I've ever noticed him shake before.
Actually over the past couple of years there have been a few times where you can see his hands shaking as he is stroking her face. Acting only goes so far then actual emotions and physical reactions take over those are the times your body doesn't know it is make believe and it is forever on film.
@@lisah9709 Pretty sure it was the cocaine. It does make your hands slightly shaky. During this time no one knew the real dangers of cocaine use. Like Genie has said one hit and she was hooked. It took all of the pain and her loneliness away. Tony has also said he had quite the drug habit too. He was older and could handle it better and switched back to weed.
I'm sure it was the coke. It prevents erections, too, so don't imagine those, either. We really should give them credit where credit is due. They were and are exceptional actors whose energy together was alchemical: higher and better than the sum of its parts. They're will never be another Luke and Laura.
@dc8058 I prefer that he just get Laura back... the best therapy he has ever had.. but I agree.. anything that gives us this multi-dimensional, multi-facceted, interesting, complex and sexy as hell Luke Spencer back I am up for....therapy included!!!
Their timing seems strange. They finally get together on the night BEFORE the auction. I kept thinking Don't overdo the champagne and sleep in tommorow and miss your big chance! Luke's hair doesn't look red anymore.
I remember watching this when it originally aired. I loved the way they kissed. I tried that with my husband, but we clinked teeth so hard we had to stop and rinse blood out of our mouths !!/:)
I know this is a really late reply but I've just discovered your channel and have fallen in love with L&L all over again. I missed so much as a teenager in the early 80's and what a treat this is! Thanks for all of the uploads. You probably know the song, now after years but in case you didn't it's Grover Washington Jrs. Take me There.
But for actor who's 65/66 today it's different,, He's a gifted actor with a marvelous talent and never boring...But for him to duplicate this level of sexiness again with these actresses the still sort-of young Finola Hughes ( 52) ..and the stilll beautifull Jane Elliot ,who's his age.. they would have to step up..and he has to dig in deeper, refocus and bring back that full passion to the point where it was when he was young.. he's about 34 here ? It can be done ..but he may be jaded
No, I have to agree with Tony. He and Genie were acting soulmates, that is why their chemistry is off the charts. No matter how much he tried to capture that with other actresses it never worked. To be honest while Finola and Jane are very attractive, they don't come close to the beauty of Genie Francis. I can see why so many compare her beauty to Elizabeth Taylor. Shee has been blessed with beautiful eyes, a perfect smile and gorgeous hair.
This is disgusting. TG has lost it. He is not even in character. This is not how Luke talks or acts. GF seems uncomfortable. Then after the Island storyline he really lost control. I always felt that it was due to their involvement with drugs but the way TG turned Luke into a sad human being and insulting the GH fans in his interviews about L&L I'm glad he left and GF is back she deserves it after what she went through.. Notice his pants like maybe they are unzipped and GF dress. The sailboat scene had none of this crap. That's what made it so epic. This is the beginning of TG's big head here and he turned out to be an egomaniac and misogynist! TOO MUCH HASHISH!!
I have issues with Geary but not in his great acting skills. Him and Genie were fantastic all the way up to 96 before Guzza rewrote Luke’s history and personality. Geary did have a part in that change in 90s and did awesome. Drugs only affected Genie after the wedding and she did great from 83 onwards. Geary upsets me post 93 by constantly infusing his personal atheistic views in Luke’s character. In late life, Geary seems to be a bitter decrepit atheist and liberal elite. Not at all the fun loving and heroic qualities he portrayed in the earlier Luke character. But I thank him for being Luke Spencer.
Ha haaaa! I LOVE the way that he covers himself with his jacket as he attempts to leave. Reality TV at its best 🥰
How could it not be perfect with these two anytime!!!!?
Complication be damned, leave the regrets for the morning light!
I had to go get a fan and turn it on to cool things down before I could watch the rest of this video.
Had to jump back to the '81 playlist. That. was. some....... kiss!!!!
What chemistry!
Nobody kisses like that these days! Just wonderful.
Yes you are solo right hon. No other day time soap couple can or could ever kiss the way in which Luke & his Laura did! Ever JMVHO! Loving Luke & his Laura... Ever! Rosie.

This is a complete role reversal from last summer. Now she's ready and willing and he's saying let's wait.

My husband was very quiet normally, sweet, shy, nobody would have ever suspected he could kiss like that. But every time I watch these I see him, he was blonde too. And we waited til we were married, so I remember a couple of dates like this.
Guys like that really exist, it's a lucky woman who gets him. I had 43 years with mine, and even at 65 he was the same way. Pays to wait!
My lord I wish my husband would kiss me that way!
@@martahuling3603 how many men that are in their early 30s are going to turn down sex. Luke must be super human man. What’s it been like a year?
@@martahuling3603 How many men in their early 30s are going to turn down sex. Especially the way they’re going at it here. Luke must be super human man. What’s it been like a year?
I just saw a video of "The Men of General Hospital" on Phil Donahue with Anthony Geary, Doug Sheehan, Stuart Damon and Tristan Rogers. The audience asked questions of the men. Someone asked TG how it felt to kiss Laura and he said "real good" "real good". Ooops. I see that Suss commented on that channel about that video so it apparently is only new to me.
The only video I could find of this was muffled so you couldn't understand what was being said, can you show the link for the video you found? I'd love to watch it. Thank you
Wow just think about what TG just said. With so much relish...wow I hanks. I have to watch that one now.Thanks Rosie.
@@terricoleman5495in the new era, a i translates a lot of transcripts, it might be readable.
I just noticed hearing TG's wrist watch ticking also. Those Mics are sensitive...
I wonder if it is a Timax Watch that takes a licking and keeps on ticking just like the Energizer Bunny?
Which would also describes the Love that WE KNOW that is between Luke and Laura!
...And always will be. Never could there be two like Luke & his Laura who can love each other like these two can or still could. No body not Holly,Anna,Hreather, Felicia and Alex or Jennifer Skye never Tracy never nore any women could ever. JMHO. Love. Rosie
Its cute how Laura wants Luke to tell her "I love you" over and over all night long. Its just like the reverse of this in the Whittaker's barn the summer before when Laura first says to Luke "I love you" and he wants to hear it over and over again.
i still say that wicker love seat has to be very uncomfortable LOL
I think he was over it a long time ago... the major issue is that he didn't feel like he had anything to offer her... that is why he NEEDS this money so badly and wouldn't move forward until he felt like he had it in his pocket..... so if that is the case what did he have to offer her in 2008? Nothing.. and he is a tortured soul because of it!! JMHO
During the left handed boy he had nothing to offer and didn't care that much or it did not affect the fact that he wanted her badly all summer and it didn't matter that they were in terrible danger. This s/l is not consistent with Disco Luke or Summer Luke...this Luke is ok with being a total monk...🤔🧐🤨makes zero sense!!
OK, what man runs out on Genie at this point? I think that Luke is so hot' and I remember telling my boyfriend he needed to watch Luke for pointers. This was so hot...remember what it was like to be young and really into each other? No money, but a ton of passion (or lust, LOL!!!)! OK time for a cold shower!!!!
Oh, sure... like he’d really go home.
I love you ❣️I love you ❣️ I love you ❣️omg 😳 wow
YOu know and it annoys me... In a Jan. 2006 clip Luke was telling Lulu about the walls of Jericho and stated "your mom was kind of old fashioned".. seemed a little condescending to me, or perhaps he was trying to make lulu not feel so badly (?), but what was he here.... "old fashioned" ???? It was the perfect opportunity to tell his daughter that perhaps one should wait until things are right to take that step in a relationship. She needed it!
.... HOT HOT HOT HOT....
He had to be in love with her. He’s too convincing.
I think, "I hope" they were very very close friends. (I strongly suspect that they did date, at least briefly, and kept it very DL.)
thank you, I so agree and she with him, no doubt!
He was and is gay.
He was in love with Ron Glass then. He is an actor. A very, very good one.
@@mowthpeece1
Correct
So believable. Great acting, but c'mon there are definitely some sparks flying. Big time !
Exactly. I think most of this is not acting but real.
Wow, yes.. I think things got a little too hot for TG, he struggled to get up off the floor!
absolutely!!
If I was Laura I would have been filing for that absentee divorce the next day, lol.
WOW!!! No other words.
My God, I need to go take a cold shower after those last few kisses!
This is one of my favorite clips. I notice TG in a lot of these scenes where he was kissing her his shirt is untucked 😂 🤷🤦♀️
I'm not trying to sound bad I'm just saying I think it's untucked to hide something. 😂
Mr. Geary has some long fingers!!!
I’ve always noticed that and I think that he used to keep them manicured... at times they even seemed to have a bit of a tinge to them...? I didn’t want to say anything so as not to be called a hater! Lol! What a show!! That was NOT ACTING. I like to believe that they were crazy about one another... but that’s just me and a MILLION OTHER WOMEN AND MEN🤪🤪🤪🤪❣️
Actors and actresses all have long fingers...it's very hard to find ones that don't...
They are gemini. Hands are all under that sign speaking physical appearance.
@@lisah9709 That’s odd. Why do they all have long fingers?
@dgprincess23 I do believe it was supposed to be at least a decade. Laura was only 17 when they first met.. Luke was not supposed to be 23. I think he was supposed to be in at least his late 20's hence about a decade age difference. Scott had finished law school.. which would put him at about 26.. and Luke was older.
Yes in real life TG / aka. Luke was 32 he was born May 29 1947. Thank you Love. Rosie
Laura was actually 16 when they started hanging out.
Yup ME again lol!!!! I just can’t believe that this was acting. And I know that I’m right 🤷♀️
That champagne bottle is bottomless 😳🤪🤪🤪🤪
Thanks Gina.. I know that one... and it is I'm in the MOod for Love.... I meant the Jazz piece ... don't recall if it was before or after.
They've rewritten and turned around so many things it makes my head spin. And yes, it annoys me too.
I love watching all this kissing. I can see steam forming on my laptop now. Your right, I haven't seen Luke kiss Anna or Tracy like this.
Thank you.. but what about Holly? I think he did kiss her like this too? What do u guys think?I thought I heard some where that TG was in love with Elizabeth Taylor and Emma Samm well that is what I heard. Ok thank u love. Rosie
Thank you.. But I knew that a loooong time ago. Luke& his Lady love Laura Forevermore. JMHO. Rosie out.
And once again, Laura is wearing the shoes from the infamous night at the disco. She must have been on a fixed income. lmao
I think if they showed then what they show on tv now the sex scenes would have been so hot between Luke and Laura we wouldn't been able to control ourselves...lol
I have to remind myself that as much as I loved the idea of TG and GF together back then, Genie was only 18. At her age I thought someone TG's age was OLD! Or at least middle aged. TG just seems so much younger than he is.
TG does? Or is that Luke Spencer??? Who might just be younger than TG! :-)
Oh yes. I slipped. Luke seems so much younger than TG's age. I have seen clips of TG at roasts and a couple other things and he was really high energy and seemed that he could be in his twenties imo. But Luke is really much younger than TG it seems.
Since when does a man turn down sex?
Exactly, there is NO WAY this would happen in real life...!!!
@@lisah9709 You’re so right, my same thoughts all along. In real life, they’d be humping like rabbits They could’ve had sex all the time and we would not have gotten bored. I feel sorry for Laura here because he’s already said they’re not gonna make love and yet he’s nibbling on her ear.
Ahh heck, I just wish that would have gone on with it. This is hotter than when they were on their honeymoon. Hope i didn't shock anyone! B+)
@dgprincess23 Yeah! There's that too.. wasn't even thinking that.. but yes.. bobbi was an Rn.. so .. and Luke was supposed to be quite a few years older than bobbi even.. when there mom died she was supposed to be very little, and he was old enough to get them to Florida to Ruby's.. so at least 5 or 6 years older than Bobbi, who was a few years older, at least, than Laura.
Wow!
@MrsLukesotherlaura No, they are 15 yrs apart. She is 48yrs old this year and he is 63.
@TerriLuvs2Sing Thanks, not sure how I missed this! Sorry for not replying sooner.
Gosh I agree!!!
THAT BOTTLE JUST NEVER SEEMS {{{ TO GET EMITY }}} DOSE IT.....
Thinking forward because I’ve been watching this over and over again... I CANNOT imagine him with Elizabeth Taylor. YUCK 🤢🤮🦠🦠🦠🦠🦠🦠🦠🦠🦠
I agree
He wasn't, she bearded alot of her gay male co-stars and friends through the years. It was super normal in Hollywood then and still is for actors to cover for each other.💞
@@lisah9709 Was he gay?
@@cindyharper6292 Yes he and his husband live in Amsterdam. That is why he loves it there, no judgement.
@@lisacarman167 Oh my I’ve been clueless for 40 plus years I would have never guessed that he was gay How did you find out?
Just saw Tuesday's episode of present day GH. Luke sure doesn't kiss Anna the way he kisses Laura!
No body kisses Laura the way Luke dose ever. No body..and no body kisses Luke the way his Laura kisses him right back. No not no body.. IMHO. Love. Rosie
Why is he so worried about a clean slate now?He was planning on marrying her from the beginning.He hounded her to take her wedding ring off all summer so they could make love.He thought she was being crazy,now he is the one being crazy.
@@judithjerde1574 They just have to keep us chomping at the bit!Luke would have never had thought 2 seconds about them being together the past summer,clean slate or not!He didn't care about money then,he wanted her and he wanted them married.That was all he cared about!
Got that right Luke is crazy. Love. Rosie. Talk about a rubber room. Hello. Love. Rosie
Hey glad to see you here! How are you??
@lady5089 I agree.. this was the hottest scene they did IMHO.. hotter than the sailboat, hotter than the honeymoon.... and yes Luke is superhuman here... walking out that door my a...... ;-) (You didn't shock anyone.. we're all grown ups.. well now we are........ lots of us weren't back in 81 though! lol)
So does anyone know what the song is playing in the background of this scene around the 2:30 mark (not the previous "I'm In The Mood For Love" instrumental, the following song please)? It's so damned sexy, I've got to know!
Grover Washington Jrs. Take me there.
@@JulieB67 No the song name is "Make me a Memory"
@@JulieB67 If you listen to both songs , they sound similar, so yo might be right. I can't differentiate between the two.
FINALLY!!!
Not that it mattered, but it's funny how they never addressed the age difference in the both of them. Considering they were 15yrs apart.
So this Luke with all his restraint and wanting to do what's right has now turned into the Luke that a skirt chasing drunk. I hate what they have done to his character.
Yeah... it stinks.... I understand the man he becomes without Laura, I also understand that Luke doesn't like to be so vulnerable... so he doesn't want to go back there... but I will never understand the paranoid Luke I know well who doesn't get that Laura's catatonia and missing in Paris could be caused by the Cassedine's... and regardless of what he wants for himself.. he would never let anyone hurt her. I mean THAT is where the story should go eventually. Then he can kick himself for being so brain dead the thought didn't even come to him.
sussezq Laura's missing now? And didn't Scotty come back divorced? Why the hell use the stupid catatonia illness used in soap operas. Really rare and old, like amnesia! lol!
Oh sooo I, so do I. I can’t think that this is the end of my love affair with GH now. I can’t and will not watch GH ever,ever again it hurts just to much. It breaks my heart in two.... thank you so sad. Rosie
I hate what they did to there characters both of them...wait no many a characters where ruined because the did not fellowMs. Monty’s beautiful recipe’s of love and happiness. Which made GH #1. For many years. Remember over 30 million know the true meaning of LnL love magic.. thank you. Love. Rosie
Yes I have to agree with you + JMHO about half of the30 million+ are on the same page No trouble my name on that list is the TOP one Rosann Coleman Rosie out.
LOL!! It's not just you!
THERE,S NO GUESS WORK AS TO WHY LUKE COVER,S HIMSELF WHEN HE STANDS UP, WITH HIS JACKET , IN FRONT,, THAT SCENE WOULD MELT SAINT,,, AND LUKE,S NO SAINT, AS LUKE SAY,S,, HE DOSE'T EVEN LIKE THEM,, 7/8/17
I wonder??? After all TG is a master of improv & adding little nuances 2 a scene.
There is NO WAY Luke could resist!! I don't believe that for a million years. Laura is so beautiful and wants him badly. I don't believe it. I don't care what he says about starting fresh. They've ALREADY slept together!!! This is just a plot device to keep ratings up...annoying 😖
Told you!
Right !!! I think it was the hurt fom her and the town of PC no party.......
Did anyone notice the way that Luke's fingers are shaking while he is touching Laura's face at about 1:35? She's asking him if he's gotten over the hurt. It would seem unusual for Tony G. to be nervous? Any thoughts? I don't think I've ever noticed him shake before.
Actually over the past couple of years there have been a few times where you can see his hands shaking as he is stroking her face. Acting only goes so far then actual emotions and physical reactions take over those are the times your body doesn't know it is make believe and it is forever on film.
I don't mean this to be a disrespectful answer, but isn't this during the time where the entire cast was into cocaine?
His hands ALWAYS shake! I've watched numerous times...it could be nerves...🤔
@@lisah9709 Pretty sure it was the cocaine. It does make your hands slightly shaky. During this time no one knew the real dangers of cocaine use. Like Genie has said one hit and she was hooked. It took all of the pain and her loneliness away. Tony has also said he had quite the drug habit too. He was older and could handle it better and switched back to weed.
I'm sure it was the coke. It prevents erections, too, so don't imagine those, either.
We really should give them credit where credit is due. They were and are exceptional actors whose energy together was alchemical: higher and better than the sum of its parts.
They're will never be another Luke and Laura.
@dc8058 I prefer that he just get Laura back... the best therapy he has ever had.. but I agree.. anything that gives us this multi-dimensional, multi-facceted, interesting, complex and sexy as hell Luke Spencer back I am up for....therapy included!!!
Anyone know what the sexy jazz music is?
@Music Lover Forever You are right & the name of the song is "Make me a Memory"
Their timing seems strange. They finally get together on the night BEFORE the auction. I kept thinking Don't overdo the champagne and sleep in tommorow and miss your big chance! Luke's hair doesn't look red anymore.
I remember watching this when it originally aired. I loved the way they kissed. I tried that with my husband, but we clinked teeth so hard we had to stop and rinse blood out of our mouths !!/:)
That is hilarious!😂😂😂
Lol, I can’t stop laughing 😂
How did you clink teeth? I've kissed guys like this and never had any clinking..🤔🤔
I could kiss 💋 but getting from a standing position to the floor, NEVER looked this graceful. I bet Luke's dancing ability helped in these scenes.
I want to know who did the music in the background for this scene. And also the sailboat scene.
Herb Alpert did the sailboat music
"street life" and "rotation" are the two songs that played on the sailboat
oh my god...thanks for the help miss...I knew the rotation song, but I always wonder what the other song title...tq very much
So does anyone know what the song is playing in the background of this scene? It's so damned sexy, I've got to know!
@@princessfreesia I'm in the mood for love.
NOPE!!! Never could.
Suppose Luke had spent the night? S/L would have gone another way.
Anyone know what the music is?
I know this is a really late reply but I've just discovered your channel and have fallen in love with L&L all over again. I missed so much as a teenager in the early 80's and what a treat this is! Thanks for all of the uploads. You probably know the song, now after years but in case you didn't it's Grover Washington Jrs. Take me There.
Make Me a Memory by Grover Washington, Jr. 😊
She certainly was... and what else but taupe shoes do you wear with that color pink???
Black? Lol..
Pink
She'd not old enough for champagne!
That was funny
In 1981 the drinking age was 18 :) I used to go clubbing in college and loved being 18.
Yes she is 🥂
But for actor who's 65/66 today it's different,, He's a gifted actor with a marvelous talent and never boring...But for him to duplicate this level of sexiness again with these actresses the still sort-of young Finola Hughes ( 52) ..and the stilll beautifull Jane Elliot ,who's his age.. they would have to step up..and he has to dig in deeper, refocus and bring back that full passion to the point where it was when he was young.. he's about 34 here ? It can be done ..but he may be jaded
No, I have to agree with Tony. He and Genie were acting soulmates, that is why their chemistry is off the charts. No matter how much he tried to capture that with other actresses it never worked. To be honest while Finola and Jane are very attractive, they don't come close to the beauty of Genie Francis. I can see why so many compare her beauty to Elizabeth Taylor. Shee has been blessed with beautiful eyes, a perfect smile and gorgeous hair.
❤. Omg. Beautifull. Laura. Has nt given. Scotty. One thought only for a divorce. 4 15 24 ❤❤
This is disgusting. TG has lost it. He is not even in character. This is not how Luke talks or acts. GF seems uncomfortable. Then after the Island storyline he really lost control. I always felt that it was due to their involvement with drugs but the way TG turned Luke into a sad human being and insulting the GH fans in his interviews about L&L I'm glad he left and GF is back she deserves it after what she went through.. Notice his pants like maybe they are unzipped and GF dress. The sailboat scene had none of this crap. That's what made it so epic. This is the beginning of TG's big head here and he turned out to be an egomaniac and misogynist!
TOO MUCH HASHISH!!
I have issues with Geary but not in his great acting skills. Him and Genie were fantastic all the way up to 96 before Guzza rewrote Luke’s history and personality. Geary did have a part in that change in 90s and did awesome. Drugs only affected Genie after the wedding and she did great from 83 onwards. Geary upsets me post 93 by constantly infusing his personal atheistic views in Luke’s character. In late life, Geary seems to be a bitter decrepit atheist and liberal elite. Not at all the fun loving and heroic qualities he portrayed in the earlier Luke character. But I thank him for being Luke Spencer.
