She is terrible!!
Tracey has lied, cheated and even killed a guy in cold blood, but she never pay's for any of her crimes. She is the reason why two other are dead, even if she did not mean it, but she still walks free!!

Carla backs down and becomes scared of her, and Tracey for months makes her life hell, guess what she walks away fine from the trouble she caused.
The character has run her course about the time she killed Charlie, why not axe her?

Apparently she was sat with Nick and co when he revealed that he and Leanne were getting together, is this true? If so it just goes to show the ridiculous writing, that Robert is treated like the incarnate of Satan but Tracy gets a free pass. Didn't Johnny even say he would make her life a hell if she ruined Carla's wedding? Not that he seems to remember Carla and we even had an episode of him buying flowers from Tracy's shop.

She is just a repetitive character to add to the many others. Same scenarios and scenes, no other development. Unfortunately she won't be written out as she is linked to the Barlow clan, so that gives her a free pass. Thank god Peter is returning, I hate to think that when Ken leaves one day Tracy will carry on the Barlow legacy, just hope that Peter is getting his house and not her.

I really like the character of Tracy but it is disappointing when the writers send her in the same cycle. First it was her chasing after Steve, then it was a rivalry with a fellow female (Karen, Becky, Michelle, Tina, Carla) and now it's just to walk around passing judgement.

She needs to be left in the background for a little while until the returnee Barlow's arrive. I like her friendship with Beth and Kate Ford can bring a comic aspect to the character too.

I'd still prefer to watch Tracey than Izzy, Fizz, Caz, Kate, Beth, Michelle, Faye, Sean, The Nazirs, Dev or Alex.

I'd rather watch hours of Tracey on a loop than endure 5 seconds of Maria and the appalling acting of Sammi Ghadie.

I agree with both statements.

Tracy is great. I hope Kate Oates has some great things planned for her.

You say you'd rather watch hours of Tracy, and you sight another character's 'appalling acting' as a reason.

Are we watching the the same Tracy? She's abysmal.

Personally I think Samia's acting is perfectly fine and I think Maria has a lot more mileage left as a character than Tracy.

Or just add her to that list.

Lol, because gurning constitutes as better acting.

Yes, I can just imagine what stories she will come up that we have never seen before.

Gurns at someone
Sleeps with a roguish bloke
Works to take someone's business
Makes a nasty comment
Makes a sarcastic comment
Puts on her stupid grins and goes "Awwwwwww"
Makes an enemy of a female resident, and keeps stating how they betrayed her

Considering Kate's work so far not really holding out for much. The producers aren't really imaginative and like to play it safe.

It's a dreadful thing to say, but unfortunately Tracy's the only interesting character at the moment.

I never found her intresting..... The writes have never explored why she is the way she is or shown remorse .... She's one dimensional

Don't forget that she'll most likely become a sudden lesbian with Sophie Webster...

They will be forever known as ...

I can think of no good reason for the cold-blooded murderer not to be axed.

How about the fact that she's a legacy character?

I've started to really like Tracy lately. Her and Todd work brilliantly together and have developed one of the best friendships on the show plus every soap needs a good bitch.

No reason or excuse to be spared from getting killed off.

Especially not in Tracy's case.

bib: True.

But they have failed dismally in Tracy's case.

Same here, I've enjoyed Tracy and Todd's friendship too and I like that she's been given a female friend in Beth.

Untrue IMO. As I said, I can think of no good reason for the cold-blooded murderer not to be axed.
