"You can't escape LOVE."
🔷
Here we go again, my fellow Llanview lovers! After a binge last night... I’ve officially entered October 1992. One whole year of OLTL is behind me, and I can’t help but feel thankful to my friend who made me watch the show. 🌹

Victoria and Clint are back on the scene, but so is their broken relationship. Consumed by jealousy, Clint is acting almost unrecognizable (at least from what I’ve seen in the past year) - he’s perpetually angry, bitter, and ready to snap at Viki every sentence she utters. Meanwhile, she seems to be drifting further away from him. It’s like her body is there in Llanfair, but her soul is somewhere else. And we all know where that is, don’t we? She wasted no time before reconnecting with her “friend” Sloan. It’s clear she’s trying to set some boundaries, where friendship ends and... well, something that is FORBIDDEN... begins. Erika Slezak has once again shown us why she has so many Emmys. We watched Victoria put on a show in front of Sloan, trying to convince him... and herself that she has no feelings. But those eyes... chico... they never lie.

Speaking of women in love... Dorian Lord was having a catharsis... watching Jason sacrifice himself for Leanne in the courtroom. He pleaded guilty, unable to humiliate or blame Leanne. Dorian was hit with all the beautiful memories she shared with Jason. It seems like her fight for him might be coming to an end. Or is it? Knowing how chaotic Leanne can be... it might just be her own doing that sets Jason free for Dorian in the future. We’ll have to wait and see. But for now, Jason is off to spend 90 days in jail. Long enough for Leanne to get knocked up by someone else, if you ask me.

Guess who’s back? Andrew and Cassie! Dorian Lord’s operation “Love birds” is in full swing... and it’s working! These two can’t keep their hands off each other... There was this delightful sexy scene with Ravel’s Bolero playing in the background. It’s refreshing to see Andrew in these normal guy moments... He's been given such intense, dramatic material that his presence had started to feel quite dark. But hey, it's refreshing to see him just being a regular guy in love. Cassie is like a girl smiling from ear to ear... Just a few months back, I thought these two had zero chemistry... Now I'm totally on board. The reverend and the good girl, with a hint of taboo.

And let’s not forget... Nora Gannon has officially landed in Llanview. Sheila had this charming scene in the hospital... when this bossy... all over the place... woman asked for a pill for her migraine, completely oblivious that she was speaking with her ex’s new girlfriend. Am I sensing a feud in the works? I’m loving Nora so far. This could stir so much drama for Rachel and Kevin. And Sheila and Hank of course.

Oh, and let me make this an official announcement. October 1, 1992 - the day I finally saw Josh Griffith's name next to Michael Malone. So far he was always in the next shot.
Overall - 10/10
