GH Star Jane Elliot Incites Passionate Response on Twitter!

Tell us how you really feel, Jane Elliot fans! We’re loving the response to our poll on the popular, soon-to-retire General Hospital star.

A Poll Ignites a Firestorm

Earlier this week Soap Cities posted an article with a poll asking readers if Jane Elliot’s Tracy Quartermaine should be recast when the daytime icon leaves the show later this year. As always, we Tweeted a link to the article. We also included the question, “Should Tracy Quartermaine be recast? If so, with what actress?”

Within minutes, Twitter followers were letting us know how they feel, and making it very, very clear: No one can play Tracy except the incomparable Jane Elliot! See our Tweet and some of the responses below! Be forewarned: some of the answers contain profanity.

Our favorite idea is not recasting the role, but having Jane Elliot come back to visit from time to time as Tracy, which Vicki Borken suggested.

@SoapCities No Jane Elliot is Tracy! But if it was necessary , I guess they would have to #GH

@VBorken @SoapCities It would never be necessary. Tracy retires with Jane! IMO #GH

@notmytwiiter @SoapCities I would like to think she would visit (Jane) instead of a recast , Its hard she is legacy #GH

@VBorken @SoapCities It would never be necessary. Tracy retires with Jane! IMO #GH

@SoapCities sadly yes there is a lot of great potential storyline with Tracy Q I do wish Elliot the best. Maybe she needs a rest N break
