Jane Elliot has decided to retire and leave General Hospital (GH), meaning her daytime alter ego’s days as Tracy are numbered.
It’s hard to imagine the Quartermaine clan without her. Tracy has always been one of Port Charles’ most formidable power players, and her departure will be a major loss for the soap.
Who will Monica (Leslie Charleson) spar with without her? Who will meddle in her sons Ned (Wally Kurth) and Dillon’s (Robert Palmer Watkins) lives?
Soap Hub asked if you’ll miss Tracy when she’s gone. It turns out you all definitely will. It’s just a matter of how much.
Yes, Tracy’s Irreplaceable
Some 35% of you say you’ll miss Tracy; specifically, her honesty, vitality and penchant for telling it like it is. She is one of daytime’s most unique characters, who’s been played to perfection for decades by Elliot.
The “Q” family is suffering a major loss in your book. You just hope they find a way to bounce back and survive.
Yes, You’re Inconsolable
Meanwhile, 65% of you are downright inconsolable over this casting loss. It’s impossible for you to envision the Quartermaine family without Tracy or Monica without her foil.
Plus, Ned and Dillon are losing their loving, albeit meddlesome and domineering, mother.
The Qs and the soap will never be the same. You’ll be going into the mourning the moment Elliot’s last episode as Tracy airs.
