If it has a 4T65E, which it will have if it's a 3.8, you probably have a broken low band as it is a common failure in those transmissions.
If you can get it to move by being easy on the throttle, you will probably find that once it shifts into 3rd, it feels fine.

Hi Stevep
Here is what I found once I started to see what it was doing
R seems fine
D nothing
3 nothing
2 it will move the car but get a shuddering feeling if I try to get it going a little
1 feels about the same as 2nd...I get a shudder in it

Looks like I'll be pulling it and getting it rebuilt....ball park to have it rebuilt with the usual needs stuff for one of these...just curious..
