OLTL Discussion: Week of April 23rd


Recommended Posts

  • Members

I loved Todd and Blair. They started out snarky, then eneded on a great note. Those are the moments that keep me holding on. Todd is still clueless when it comes to Rex!!!

Tate- Well if it was SNL I would have laughed my a** off. Since it was OLTL I just threw-up!!!!!

Antonio- Let Jess speak and do NOT argue infront of Jamie.

Nash/ Chris- I watched them on mute and just enjoyed the hottness!!!

Poor Jamie!!!!

Van/ Layla- I love Layla, she is such a Chris cheerleader. Van needed to get the pregnancy test before she went to the gym and talked to Layla. Van how exactly did Chris break your heart....because he wouldn't take your cheating a** back!!!

I'm so tired of the writers teasing us Tangie fans. On one hand I think they're completely stupid and must not realize just how much some of us want them to get together. On the other hand I get this feeling that they're just being a$$holes and doing it on purpose only to have Todd run back and recreate his sick relationshp with Blair.

Lol I should have muted the tv when I saw Nash and Cristian so I too could have enjoyed the hotness....as it though I can't stand Cristian so just knowing what hes yelling about would have pissed me off.

Antonio just needs to die. I hope Jamie doesn't die because I'm sure TPTB will have him put the blame squarely on Jessica who will NOT get together with Nash out of guilt and instead remain with unattractive and boring husband. Tate and the Tom Cruise thing was hilarious I thought. Especially since the guy looks a lot like Tom Cruise! And Adrianna sorta looked like Katie Holmes as well. I was actually struck by the similarities. Good move by OLTL I think. And like I said earlier Rex deserves to lose EVERYTHING including Adrianna over this whole Todd's "dead but really alive no dead NO really ALIVE" son situation.

I don't think Jess and Nash will ever get together. OLTL somehow thinks torturing viewers for years on end is good writing. So now we are back to Jessica with Antonio out of pity. Here is the story arc: Jessica tells Nash she can't leave Antonio; Jessica and Nash fight their feelings; Jessica and Nash give into their feelings; Jessica feels guilty; Jessica tells Nash she's staying with Antonio; Jessica and Nash fight their feelings; Jessica and Nash give in to their feelings; Jessical feels guilty, start the sequence over and over and over and over and over. It's been that story for months, it never changes and it never will.

Now to make it worse, we've returned to Anger Boy and Wuss Women. Kamar was back to huffing and spitting this week. The only change is Anger boy now has Anger Boy II as his brother.

I don't know if you are right about Todd/Evangeline/Cris/Blair or not. For you to be right, it would involve an end to a story or a triangle and Higley never ends a story or a triangle. They just go on ad-nauseum. Unfortunately, for those who like Evangeline, the current story isn't about Evangeline and Todd IMO. It's just a continuation of the never-ending Todd and Blair suffer in love story.

All one has to do to understand OLTL is to see what Dena believes is writing....so draw a DOOL correlation. Then things become painfully obvious. Jessica/Antonio/Nash is Belle/Shawn/Phillip, with Bree = Claire. So even if Dena broke up Belle-I-mean-Jessica and Phillip-Antonio, we'd still have a Willow/Gabby/Claudia interloper to contend with. There will ALWAYS be a third party somewhere. The teen scene is exactly the same. Brittany = early Jan Spears, Cole = Shawn, Starr = Belle, Langston = Mimi. Todd and Blair are Bo and Hope. Evangeline got to play Billie Reed. Spencer was a thinly veiled attempt at a DiMera-esque villain (maybe IS is more appropriate. I rather suspect Dena plans on bringing him back 'unexpectedly')

Dyam, you are so correct. LOL. Oh please, don't bring Spencer back from the dead. You know I've started watching DOOL again. For a while it was really good. Now they have turned EJ into Spencer, the all-purpose bad guy. but that is another thread.

You know, I really do admit if I were a big REG fan I would be madder than hell about the treatment of that character. All she ever gets to be is the third wheel. I think they missed a big opportunity with Kevin and Evangeline. There was something fun about them. I have to admit though, one of my favorite couples on OLTL was RJ and Evangeline. He made her a little bad, and she made him a little good. I thought it would have been fun to explore that especially when Hank was around.

Thankfully there was nothing about today's show that had me wanting to change the channel like I did yesterday.

As much as I'm not a Vincent fan, I honestly did enjoy Viki and Vincent's scenes, talking about Natalie. Hell, it's probably just because I was SO excited to see Viki. LOL.

Rex is starting to save this triangle, and I'm beginning to believe that Tate is actually gay.

Man I sure did enjoy Todd and Blair today. Love them when they aren't at each others throats.

Boy, oh boy. Antonio was tugging at my heart strings today. I wanted to reach through the TV and hug him, and I NEVER have wanted to do that where Antonio is concerned. Kamar is doing a hell of a job with this part of the storyline.

Don't usually care for the "Teen scene" but even their scenes didn't bother me today, but I credit that alot to do with Marcie (Kathy), who I adore.

Can't wait to see Viki/Nora and Marty tomorrow. Although, I would have perferred it to be Natalie instead of Marty but at least I get more Viki/Nora, which is good.

Mine too. Those were some touching scenes. I liked it that the whole family was there for Jamie.

I hope May sweeps really resolves some of these stories. I'm ready for Antonio to find out about Jash and Todd and Marcie to find out about TJ and of course, who killed Spencer.

I loved yesterday!!!!

Vicki was on!!! I hate vincent though...such a waste of airtime.

Antonio/Jess/Chris/ NAsh/ Carlotta/ RJ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Wow RJ rocks...I love him. Chris looked hot and I love Nash, but he so got what he deserved yesterday. I felt so badly for Antonio.

Tate/Adrianna/Rex- Ok this is so Blair/ Todd/Spencer storyline redux. Adrianna needs to kick Tate to the curb...like now. I loved Rex blackmailing Tate, although it will blow up in his face I think. "Monkey on Prozac!!!"

Todd/Blair- I loved them!!! I loved how they were allowed to talk to each other for once instead of screaming and throwing insults. Yesterday reminded me why I fell in love with Todd and Blair in the first place. I am still a sucker for them.

High School Musical- I actaully liked it. I was involved with musicals durring school and I always had a blast doing them. I loved that Marcie got to say "Do you just SUCK....lemons.

****I love Brittany****!!!!!!!!!

Oh. My. Gosh. I loved the scenes between Viki, Nora and Marty. And to think I was very leery because I do not care for Marty at all. But man these three women had me giggling up a storm. The conversation was so much fun and I loved the banter between Nora and Viki, man I would love to have more of those two in scenes. I so miss their friendship.

Really enjoyed the Rex/Bo stuff. These two never fail to make me laugh. I love the bond that Rex and Bo have formed and its always great to watch them together.

Today Natalie was tugging at the heart strings, and I loved what she told John...that it was time for her to think about HER and what she wanted and to finally be able to not worry about him. Gosh, I've waited so long to hear her say those words, and I have very high hopes that when Natalie finds something that makes her happy, they will find their way back to each other.

The thing I have to say about the Clint/Dorian stuff is that I KNEW it was ONLY about sex and that will never change. Clint is in love with Viki.

Tate and Adriana - snoozefest.

I loved the banter between Viki and Dorian. It was so funny how they called one another out....Dorian reminding Viki of having no love life, and Viki reminding Dorian that she had no friends. I loved it! :lol:

It was also great to see more of Nora, RJ, Clint and Jamie. And Miles is still one of the few newbies I like.

Loved the Bo/Rex interaction....and JPL's actions and facial expressions wre hilarous.

The Tate/Adraina stuff........just gag me now please.

The rest was so-so.

What was up with Antonio yesterday? I can't believe he was that quick to place all the blame on Nash, I felt for him in the beginning... I truly did; but the mess spewing out of his afterwards had me shaking my head. He needs to look at his wife, if he wants to blame someone. I have to wonder how he is a detective with LPD, but I guess I shouldn't be surprised... Talia seems to be the one running the investigation. Run Nash, run far away from them! They are becoming as dysfunctional as Blair/Todd... and that's not good for them.

    • Today was a short one. Only 33 minutes.  The ‘Part One’ graphic at the beginning was pretty interesting though. I didn’t expect them to do something like that.  I like how everything was focused around John and his family and friends. Again, the acting and the dialogue was very well done and well written. And I love that they were able to incorporate Drake’s, “swing for the fences” phrase into the script. It was nice seeing everyone interact with each other, especially characters who don’t often share scenes together. It felt like every character was part of a big family or community. Plus, an outdoor funeral in June makes a lot more sense than an outdoor funeral in December.  But yeah, it’s very, very strange that Will isn’t at the funeral, especially since we know that

      I would much rather he had been there today. And, where’s Anna too? And Jack and Jennifer? What was the point of bringing them all back if they weren’t going to attend the funeral? I expected Steve to want to close down BlackPatch, though I’d rather he just retire and let Paul take it over. But I like that Kayla was there to comfort him. I wonder if he’s going to change his mind at some point.  It was nice seeing Shane again too. Now, he just needs to have more scenes with his son lol but I enjoyed seeing him comfort Marlena. I’m not really sure about his interaction with Cat though? Was it really necessary for this to happen now, at John’s funeral? They could’ve waited a little longer to introduce this story arc.  Btw, was Tate bleeding from his head in his first scene with Arianna?

    • This is wonderful! Thank you for posting this! I loved the first two seasons and never got to see the final season when they cancelled the DVD release. I've been hoping this popped up on streaming but no luck. Happy I'll finally get to see how it ended!

    • Arguably DAYS OF OUR LIVES has been brilliant lately & definitely was last week. But, here I am with nitpick & technicalities. This was the only misstep but it was just a stupid thing that should have been caught. Deidre Hall as Marlena has this one problematic line, "It didn't matter how many identities you had, I always knew exactly who you were, you were the man who saved my life." - Marlena, DAYS, 6-2-25 Unfortunately the flashback closest to it was when Marlena was on the phone, terrified because she thought he was Stefano. Yes, it's true that the line is not accurate. There were many times when she did not feel the way she is claiming because of whatever was going on in story with his 'retconned to hell & back' identity & origin story. Does it keep the whole week from being called excellent? Nope.
