Members Scotty Posted April 26, 2007 Author Members Share Posted April 26, 2007 Oh, I agree with you for the most part.....I'm just saying that they will likely choose the wrong characters to replace this storyline. Probably more John, Antonio, Jessica, etc... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Scotty Posted April 26, 2007 Author Members Share Posted April 26, 2007 Good point...we would have probably seen some Blair, Marty, Michael, Viki, Bo, Nora involvement, but most of it would have likely been nothing to write home about. And we have never seen Henry's parents. And Britney's haven't been seen since last year. And we have never seen Langston's parent's either. As for the other teens of Amber, Amy, Gabe and the no-name dayplayers who knows? So you're right, I don't see how this would have affected everyone in Llanview.

Members ZaraB Posted April 26, 2007 Members Share Posted April 26, 2007 I'm not sure how much parents and community came into this storyline, which is why I'm glad it was pulled. The only parents involved would be Blair, Todd and Marty. Henry, Brittany and Langston would only have new recurring or dayplayer parents, if that much. With what I know of other sweeps storylines, I don't think we would have seen much of Todd or Blair. Even community probably only consisted of Marcie and Bo. Maybe we'd have seen Tate worried about his star baseball player. OLTL doesn't have the community built around the teens to do this story properly.

Members Jess Posted April 26, 2007 Members Share Posted April 26, 2007 Yeah, I agree. Todd isn't going to be around much in May because of the contract flap. Viki will be involved, but only ever so slightly in the Jessica being ill storyline, they have really written Nash/Jess/Antonio about as poorly as they can. You hope there is some new story out there that they can move up. I suspect we are going to see a whole lot of John/Marty/Miles/Natalie/Vincent/Jess/Nash/Antonio/Talia/Adrianna/Rex/Tate/Blair. That is a lot of characters. Unfortunately, it's the same ones we have seen for a while. And it is all a series of triangles, which whether you like the characters or not, still remain a series of triangles. A triangle is a triangle. Period. It's all the same story. It would be a nice time to move up the Lindsey/Bo/Nora story. I'd like to see Natalie at BE. Oh well, I'll hush. Viki and Clint and Dorian will all be standing around the hospital. Viki will be written like some old no-life busy body. Clint really is being written like he needs to be fertilized and mowed. And Dorian, ugg.

Members Scotty Posted April 26, 2007 Author Members Share Posted April 26, 2007 Well, Britney already does have dayplayer parents. We saw them a couple of times last year....like when Todd starting to beat up her dad at a back to school night. But yeah, ITA with with what you said. Hahaha! That is funny and wrong on so many levels. But it's the truth, poor old dull Clint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ATWTCarOn4Ever Posted April 26, 2007 Members Share Posted April 26, 2007 Lol I find Clint and Dorian to be very funny together. Don't get me wrong I love Viki but I also love the character of Dorian so its hard to see one win and the other lose. However I hope Viki finds someone that truly loves her the way Ben did. Whatever happened to Ben anyways? I coulda sworn that there was a story where he turned out to be Asa's son? What happened to that? Also I thought that at one point he was coming back from the dead. Todd & Blair use to be so money for me. Now its just kinda sad to watch them. They've destroyed each other to the point where its unethical to even want these two together anymore. I mean all they do is find a way to hurt and betray one another and its got to stop for Starr and Jack's sake. Can we please get Tangie moving forward again? I like nuMarty but I never saw the old one so I can't really compare. But I do like her when shes onscreen. Her relationship with Cole is pretty realistic too. In two years though Cole is gonna be some kinda HOT! Right now hes a baby...but that doesn't stop me from thinking naughty thoughts...lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members edgeofnik Posted April 27, 2007 Members Share Posted April 27, 2007 They made the right choice pulling the story. Better to err on the side of being sensitive to this type of tragedy than to throw it up on the screen. (Frankly, I'm not sure the current writing staff would've done such a good job with the story to begin with....) I do feel badly for the writers and actors that are going to have to scramble to fix this. Who knows -- under pressure they might come up with something good.
