OLTL Discussion: Week of February 12th


Recommended Posts

Loved the Viki/Asa scenes and Asa tellilng her to basically get her tail into gear and win Clint over before Dorian can get her hooks into him, but much to my dismay I think its to late for that. Dorian is working Clint, and he's falling for it hook, line and sinker. And I loved that Lindsay had a conscience and told Viki what was going on because I'm telling you I think Viki needs to take Dorian to the mat on this one, and did you not think Viki had some Jean Randolph going on when she showed up at the Palace.

I SO hope we get more of Viki/Clint on Monday, but I want to see Viki tell Clint that what Dorian did, right now I'm not liking Clint very much and he needs to do something to get back in my good graces.

Really enjoyed the fire at Nora's and Bo arriving and dealing with the possiblity that he might lose yet another son. Very good scenes.

WTF was all that Marty and Miles crap. Sorry, I don't like NotMarty, and I like Miles, so it was hard to watch. I hope that we don't have to see Miles ALL the time with Marty because she just sucks the life out of scenes that she is in.

OMG what is Blair's problem. That woman needs to taking a chill pill.

I want MORE Viki/Clint.

I enjoyed today's show too. Loved seeing Lindsay and was glad she fessed up to Viki about the truth. Actually enjoyed the John/Nat scenes too - but John (IMO) was being a little hypocritical because there's been times when he himself has "withheld" evidence to supposedly protect someone (the DNA revealing that faux-Cris was actually Cris).

The Bo scenes were really good - and Talia hit the nail on the head knowing Bo had lost one son and came close to losing another.

Good to see Asa again too.

Is it just me or does the guy playing Miles kind of resemble Russell Crowe? LOL....

Blair does seem to losing it a lot lately - I can understand her being mad, but she's a little over the top with her anger.

Nu-Marty? heh...no interest...

I started a new job this week, and that's the ONLY reason I have been M.I.A. This week rocked!

OLTL is back on track in so many ways :)

The Valentine's Day episode was cheesy, but classic OL, and I applaud them for doing things like this once in a while.

I was so sad to see Nora's house go up in flames, because for some reason that I can't explain, I always liked that set! LOL. OL always does such a good job with special effects and their direction is top notch, even on soaps' shrinking budgets (except car accidents are always cheesy on this show).

I have loved seeing more of the vets, and I especially liked the Asa/Viki scene. There is so much history with those two.

Blair may be "losing it" a lot, but I love her. I am not going to go on about her too much, though, because I got temporarily banned over at TWOP for defending Blair with such "passion." LOL!

Nash and Jessica positively sizzle.

I'm a couple of episodes behind, but I completely agree. I love Jess and Nash, but right on her marriage bed! Why?? It's a betryal anyway you slice it, but that's just going too far.

I thought the Valentine's day episode was ok. I was glad to see Roxie.

I'm curious about Miles. I'm up to Thursday right now, so I'm interested in what he has to say to Marty.

I'm shocked to say it, but I found Vince and Natalie's scenes pretty tolerable this week. They might make interesting partners in crime.

Well I finally got around to watching Friday's episode....and what a wonderful episode, in part because we got Viki, Clint, Dorian, Asa, Nigel, Lindsay, Nora, Matthew, and Bo ALL in the same episode!

Does it get any better than that? I think not!

And what the hell is Blair's problem? I know she's been through a lot, but she is acting crazy.

    • Agreed. The Emmys next year are gonna be a pretty tough competition and I hope we get a Days sweep lol  Not only does Deidre deserve a nomination for these last few weeks, but I also think Paul Telfer, Raven Bowens, Carson Boatman, Dan Feuerriegel and Alison Sweeney have good chances as well.
    • It’s not about a lack of faith and trust in MVJ, it’s about a a lack of faith and trust in Ron Carlivati, who I think can be very sneaky and manipulative when he wants to be.  And, all that “He’s just a breakdown writer” talk never changed my mind about anything, because at Days, it was “just a breakdown writer” that gave us some of the worst episodes I’ve ever seen.

    • I think they’re desperately trying to cover his awful tattoos. But anyway them being unable to style short kings properly has been a major pet peeve of mine for a while now.  I honestly don’t understand what some people expect from actors to even begin considering them for recognition. Let’s be real—awards mostly mean that an actor is respected by their peers and has some level of cultural relevance. Actual judgment on the acting itself? That’s often secondary—highly subjective and shaped by the times. I completely agree on both points. If you’re an actor or a dancer you shouldn’t get any tattoos (sorry not sorry). Tomas’ tattoos are ugly too. And regarding the couples- you’re completely right. These writers are unable to write romance.   Further comments: - Kat cannot be this dumb to keep tampering with evidence over and over again. And I’m officially not a fan of the actress—every time she’s in a scene with Leslie, she doesn’t seem intimidated at all. She plays it like comic relief, which is just too much, especially when paired with Leslie’s histrionics and over-the-top antics. Leslie is older, dangerous, and has literally been portrayed as homicidal—Kat should be at least a little scared. • I also didn’t like Kat playing damsel in distress with the hotel manager. It gave off the same weird energy as Dani with the cop. I would’ve much preferred the version Paul Raven suggested, with her sneaking in through housekeeping. • And yes, Dani again accused Hayley of faking the pregnancy—this time even specifying she might be using a pillow under her shirt. (No fake miscarriage being mentioned) I stand by my take: this is ridiculous writing. No one in the real world—except us, the chronically online soap watchers—would even think of such a conspiracy theory. Haley is no Beyoncé. • What in the world was Chelsea wearing in her hair the other day? And this whole thing with Madison is beyond cringe. Chelsea’s coming off as needy and toxic—basically like every other Dupree. • I’m glad the casino storyline is moving forward, but it’s still boring as hell. Honestly, I’d be so here for a plot twist where Vanessa and Doug take Joey out. • The direction and editing lately have been rough. Abrupt cuts, weird pacing… something just feels off overall. There’s a strange uneasiness to how it’s all coming together. • And finally: Tomas is too much of a saint. Where are the messy sluts when you need them? (Vanessa doesn’t count.)
    • I was watching some August 1987 episodes and they brought back so many memories. I had some thoughts: Lisa and Jamie were so dull. Lisa was such a nothing character. It boggles my mind that so much story was centered around her in such a short amount of time. Joanna Going is a talented actress, but the material was just not there.  It was so good to see Wallingford and Mitch again. I know there was talk about Felicia a while back, but these episodes reminded me how integral Felicia was for the show.  Sally Spencer was done so dirty. She is turning in superb performances in an icky storyline. I wish she had stuck around longer. She has chemistry with everyone. The McKinnons should have lasted longer. Spencer had some strong stuff with Stephen Schnetzer and Mary Alexander. AW waster such a talented actress by getting rid of her. Justice for Cheryl too. I also missed Ed Fry when he left. Sandra Ferguson was a star from the moment she came on. She was charismatic and just popped. She had immediate chemistry with RKK and blended in well with Wyndham and Watson. I'd forgotten about the teenage Matthew.  I have no memory of Peggy Lazarus. She must not have lasted long. Was the original plan for John that he was going to turn out to be the twins' real father?
