I have had the luxury of watching live this whole week, and I'm excited about today's episode. I hope the Todd/Marty/Spencer stuff is exciting, and I'd like to see some Viki and Clint. Sadly, I think Vincent Jones will be a big part of today's episode, which means maybe I should paint my nails or something (LOL, j/k).

I got called out halfway through today's eppy, so just finished watching now. I logged on, thinking there would be lots of discussion, but was I ever wrong! LOL: could any show be LESS talked about on SON these days than OLTL? :o

I like most of the episode, and I am enjoying the hostage situation. There was a bit too much movement and quick camera angles for me, but OL's directors always do a good job overall with action sequences. Nice to see the actor playing Cole (name?) come alive for a moment when he saw his Mom in peril, and I did think KA was quite charming in their scenes together.

Dorian was a highlight for me ... I love her unadulterated rage, even when it's not justified!

In all honesty, this was some of the better acting I've seen from MA in some time, and it had to do with the fact that Natalie is sick of John's crap.

Next week's Nash/Jessica scenes look good.

Dang Shane...you're turning into a post whore! :lol:

j/k

The name of the boy who plays Cole is Brandon Buddy.

I too like the hostage situation; especially there with the shot at the very end. I like wacko Spencer.

I know how you feel Shane, OLTL seems to be one of the least talked about soaps at SON these days. And that's sad, considering how much better the show has gotten recently.

BTW, I love your banner. :)

I loved most all of the show today, didn't really watch the Vincent/Cris and Vangie stuff, since I find that storyline SO boring, but all the other stuff was rather exciting. Very dramatic.

Loved the mention of Addie, and I so cannot wait to see her again, she's been missed. The scenes between Viki, Clint and Dorian were good, and I am loving me some wacko Spencer, but I sure wish he would have just put me out of my misery and shot Marty instead of himself. I really do.

Starr and Cole were very sweet, I tend to not like this storyline but they were actually very sweet today, and I loved Viki's expression when Starr was comforting Cole.

I think Natalie would be better off to just let John do what he wants, and when he gets sick again, say IFTYS. LOL.

Can't wait to see the show next week, its gotten so good.

I do agree....I am finding myself actually looking forward to the show each day more and more. The Viki/Clint/Dorian stuff is great...it's always good seeing those three on the screen.

And just look at the mentions of characters lately that we haven't seen in quite awhile....Addie, Cassie, Will, Jen..... . It's great to see at least small parts of OLTL's history remembered.

The show still has a ways to go, but it is awhole helluva lot better than it was only a few months ago. I just hope they can keep moving in the right direction.

      I know Passions used this trope with Ethan and Sam to drag out the paternity, but GH seems to speed through certain stories while dragging others.

      For any other soap, I think I’d agree, but GH, I don’t know

      Agreed, that there was some strange choices in the episode, especially at the end, but overall, that was some great drama that opens up the potential for so much future storyline. Kat vs. Eva having the most potential, especially over Tomas. I have mixed feelings about Martin/BC though. I thought he did pretty well in scenes with Smitty/MM, but the scenes of him confronting Leslie and of him throwing the books were bad lol she acted circles around him.  It’s similar to what Harding Lemay said about George Reinholt at AW; he could be brilliant in one scene, but then mediocre in the next.

      I know some of y'all really like Brooke Kerr, and so I've tried to give her a shot, despite her frequent flat line readings and distracted "did I leave the front door unlocked?" facial expressions. But lord, she is so bad at playing a tough-talking badass that I was actually rooting for Brad today to spill the beans to Drew.

      Googling does tend to ruin it.  For those of us who were teens in the late 1970s and early 1980s, you can't imagine how much fun it was to watch the show in the afternoons.  (It came on right after school.)  There weren't any "spoilers" at the time.  We would always try to anticipate how each crime and each mystery would be resolved, and we were ALWAYS wrong, because the stories are filled with so many weird twists and turns.   The head writer (Henry Slesar) and his dialogue writer (Steve Lehrman) invariably toss genuine clues directly into your face in the most unlikely ways, but then they provide a host of "red herrings" to completely confuse you and send you off on the wrong path.  Once the story reaches its conclusion, all you can think is Why didn't I figure that out weeks ago?  lol

      Does the vault have the original scene and not the short flashback?

      The Saturday 8pm slot usually had the lowest rating of the NBC 4 sitcom lineup for some reason. NBC let Saturday night fizzle, They used 9.30 pm to launch 227 and Amen, both of which moved to earlier in the evening but they  kept Empty Nest following GG for several seasons.  Empty Nest should have moved to 8pm with their strongest new sitcom at 9.30, anticipating that GG would eventually falter. Instead they left them there and stretching the sitcom pool too thinly on other nights. When Grand talk over at 9.30 Thurs maybe Night Court and Wings could have been used on Saturday.
