Laura is not there. That's his problem.. that's his problem all the way around. Luke is not Luke without Laura.... and there is no fun,even at a party, without her. He exists now in a cold, dark, lonely place... and his relationship with Tracy is a co-dependent one... they both are so alone and desperate (as you see their kisses are desperate ones.. certainly not loving or passionate ones.. YUCK).. it's kind of sad, and pathetic. I sure hope Laura comes back and breathes a little life into him!!
It might have given the fashion industry more opportunities to showcase the threads. We were only just becoming fashion conscious around this time. I mean for those who weren't too wealthy, the normal ppl could finally afford some too.
@wrjsell No it's not a rewrite. When Luke lost Laura he lost a part of himself. :( He isn't the same Luke anymore. :( Even Helena notices that Luke isn't Luke anymore.
You know if Luke and Laura had to end, why not end it with them still together? Like either they go off traveling together or Luke dies of a heart attack, Laura tells him I will join you shortly then she passes away from...Breast Cancer or whatever and they are together eternally.
@@orlandobabe@orlandobabe He was last seen alive in 2017. Died in a cable car accident in Switzerland in 2021; Victor was responsible in Austria. Tracy came back to tell Laura. Helena made a posthumous video celebrating his demise. TG has retired and no desire to return to acting.
sonyab1974: In 1981 Genie was 19. Her birthday in real life is in May, but on GH she had her birthday in December, close to Christmas. Genie and I are the same age, and I too was 19 in 1981.
@@terrihiggins6671 what sonyab1974 meant was that Laura's birthday is in December , and the character of Laura was slightly older than Genie and therefore was born in 1961, which would soon make Laura 20 years old.
Is it just me or does anyone else notice that Laura is almost non existent in these scenes?? She says have an hors d'oeuvre, "mom, Tiffany loves your ring" then you see her standing behind Emma and she laughs a time or two at some comment. Is it that TPTB are trying to prove a point because they know she is leaving? Something is different about Laura.
Laura is being marginalized because she's going and I imagine Gloria Monty was unhappy about it and decided to be cruel and make them miserable before she left, instead of them being happy when she left, which would have devastated us, the fans, more. But there is a lot of pettiness in the world, even in 1982.
I don't think Laura is non existent in these scenes, TG is so funny watching GF eat an appetizer that Laura is supposed to like and that GF obviously does not! lol I also don't think that Laura's different now, but later on they DO write her differently and I really DISLIKE it VERY MUCH!!!! IMO
How come every time Luke has to go to a party or holiday event these days we have to hear from him and everyone else how horrible it is for him to be there and he may run for the door at any minute. He was always at party's and gatherings in the old days and enjoyed himself and fit in at every one. I know its just another rewrite of his character, but it's something I just noticed.
Luke has a dissociative personality disorder, ( DID ) used to be called split personality disorder. he has had it from the beginning but gradually starts showing. Unless this storyline is about past lives if so he has been around wayyy too long lol
I would like a burbon and give her a ginger ale. ROFL! Luke: See the reason is, Laura has dipped into the brandy this afternoon. ROFL! Geez Luke you embarrassed Laura. :) And why is Emma Dunts there? Glad to see Slick. :) Why is Luke talking to Emma? I guess he doesn't find her gross anymore ROFL! Luke: Announcing! The counselor Joseph of Kelly. ROFL!
@@KDL861 Sounds plausible - driving a cab. Most likely a host of reasons as well - Charlie wasn't into social climbing, but Emma was. Slick was widely accepted, and a means of transportation. And, Slick was enormously funny, which created great scenes. It also showed that folks were all connected to the waterfront on some level - even the "highbrows"! Just guessing.
Tiffany keeps calling Scorpio darling & pushing herself on him. She is not a good match for him at all. Glad Robert doesnt seem to be interested with her in that way , like he was with Anna or Holly. I liked him with Anna.

Also it is nice to see Rick calling Luke son and he calls him dad.
I think that's a little inside joke they have between them.
It is nice these engagement partys get longer than 3.5 minutes air time like they do now in GH 2009!

18 was the legal drinking age in the state of NY at the time. She was legal. Laura was just about to turn 19 in a couple weeks.
She turned 19 after the summer at the Corners. Wasn't that last year?
I love how everyone kisses everyone......lol
Darling I can wow you in any room I choose. LOL just gotta love Tiffany!

TG retired left in 2017, they finally killed him off in 2021 and Genie is still on the show.

@@terrihiggins6671 me to my birthday is January 1962
Do you think Slick and Emma might have something going on?? LOL
I love Emma and Lila together......i thought they had great chemistry together
The Casadine's take Leslie away to hurt Laura.She doesn't die.
I'm good. Thanks!
Laura gets pissed at Luke about that drinking comment he made to Leslie and Rick. What gives?
Little ways that TPTB are destroying Luke and Laura!
Yes so sad, but soooooo true on current day GH!

Yes
She knows she is leaving the show because someone said awful things about her causing her to leave.

I loved Slick...Emma not so much. lol
Emma was annoying; she grated on my nerves. I loved Slick😀
@gypsygmarie The marriages barely last longer than 3.5 minutes! ROFL! Good one. :)
I don't know.. but he was as cute as cute could be!
In Slicks dreams.

The Baldwins should never be invited to anything to do with the Webbers.
They were good friends despite the split between Laura n Scotty
Wonder what happened to little Mikey?
HI V!! I mean snow! ; )
I wonder why they never had Amy date anyone on the show.
Yeah.. that's why I left him in! ; )
No something serious was going on with Heather.. and he and heather had a thing or something. I don't know.
The Diana Taylor killing was finally being solved, almost ten months after it happened!

I keep forgetting to ask what was the legal drinking age in Port Chuck back then? I keep thinking Laura is too young to be drinking (?)
why is Emma there? She is not a friend of Rick and Leslie or Laura's.
She came with Slick.....lol
Laura looks a little pissy here.
Its only going to get worse until her exit. :-(
I'm glad they didn't show Delfina again.
Oh we haven't seen the last of her.
Hi MO!
Luke has a dissociative personality disorder, ( DID ) used to be called split personality disorder. he has had it from the beginning but gradually starts showing. Unless this storyline is about past lives if so he has been around wayyy too long lol
evening everyone !!=) I am not to late tonight
Now that is funny!!
But It is too bad it is the truth though....
I would like a burbon and give her a ginger ale.
ROFL!

Why is it that Emma hangs out with Slick so much? They go to all events together, without Charley, which is weird.
Terri Higgins Charlie is on duty driving the cab? 🤷♀️
