Well, we finally have confirmation on why we aren't getting Luke/Laura--------Tony Geary doesn't want to do it anymore. That's what Genie told her fans at her event.

http://members4.boardhost.com/LukeSpencer/msg/1427770435.html

So does that mean GH doesn't want her unless it's for Luke and Laura? But Laura was around before Luke, it's not like she needs Luke. Maybe they're waiting for him to retire before asking her back.

I believe we'd have LnL now if Tony wanted it. Tony is running things over there. People don't want to believe how much power he has. As long as Tony is against LnL? We can forget it.

I'm sure this won't be received well, but the only time I've found Duke to be remotely watchable is now, and that's because he's playing Duke like he's played the ruthless Ian on Days a few years back. Otherwise Duke Lavery has been a complete, utter bore to me and I just didn't see what his appeal was with or without Anna. Sorry for his fans but I won't miss him.

I think Genie simply confirmed what we've all be speculating about for years.

Quoting limited to 4 levels deep
"Good" is a relative term. I still fear for the character, but I would be more upset if she left. I think Duke has been an anchor around her neck since 2013 and I'm was happy they split them up, although I didn't want IB to have to leave. He was doing well with the mob material. With that being said, Anna tied to Duke romantically removed any chance for her to shine in that department. FH and IB have no sexual chemistry, Anna needed a new man. I think IBs departure, was a last minute decision. Why would they start this Ducy story if they knew they would kill him off?
I was reading comments from the Daytime confidential and Michael Fairmont site on Ian's leaving and so many people feel that Anna/Duke didn't have any sexual chemistry and it wasn't just coming from the old times thread. So many posters didn't see the chemistry there either.
We're still waiting for the identity of Nathan's father, that got dropped too. Nobody cares anymore.

Nothing this regime has done -- not Fluke, Jakeson, Nathan/Maxie, Julexis, Carson, Michael Q, Spencer the brat, Ava's cancer, Franco/Nina -- not one thing has worked to the point of jumpstarting GH and engaging viewers in any consistent or significant way. Eventually it all stalls and goes to hell in a handbasket. So after a while you have to start wondering what's the common thread and it's not the actors, it's the writing.
Bingo. The common thread is the writing.

But ABC doesn't care. As long as they're below budget and staying above a 2.0. Quality doesn't matter.

I keep reading post after post of how Monty is rolling in her grave at the treatment of her super couple. What make people think that Monty would've kept her 5 super couples that she created together at this point?

"Treatment" encompasses much more than just keeping a couple together. Worthy treatment requires a depth of writing and a respect for character, relationships, and history that this regime hasn't got a grasp on. It's beyond their superficial reach.
ITA. I'm all for shaking Duke & Anna up. However, bringing back Duke and then killing him off is just wrong on all sorts of levels. There are so many other ways of dealing with it. But TPTB aren't too creative when it comes to things like that. They take the easy way out - kill someone.

So what if they kill him off, GH is full of characters that has died and THEY'RE BACK. Why are some treating this like it's some major thing. Lots of characters has received crappy, OOC writing and people didn't give a crap about it but because it's happening to Duke it's WW3.

ITA, the most silly thing is how many times are they suppose to killDuke off and realistically keep bringing him back..this is such BS !

Honestly I don't think there are good things coming for her. I just don't think this HW has the capability.

NOP but trying to make sense of why "they" do anything on GH is futile. Things get dropped all the time for no reason and without warning, Ducy would be no exception. IMO Anna's problem isn't Duke, it's the quality of writing in general.
