Ah! Yikes. At least the show has some drama in it and a story like this does play out in real life, where the husband and wife adopt a kid, and the father finds out the true parentage of the kid. Then the wife doesn't reveal to the husband she can not have kids of her own. When everything comes out and all secrets are revealed, we learn the wife is pregnant. Just wait :).

What I liked today:

Dorian/David/Viki

Seeing David shirtless!!!!!!

Okay:

Thalia (sp?) and Antonio. I really like the actress.

Nash and Jessica.

Roxie and Lindsey.

What I disliked:

Llanview still seemed like a ghost town today, somewhat.

Michael and Marcie...I dunno, I'm just like so over them.

Clint...he just seems so weird, although I love JvD.

Jessica and Marty being friends...WTF? Where did that come from?

Cole and Starr. Where's Blair?

This is what I hope happens. Marcie finds out that she's pregnant, and at the same time... her marriage is in total limbo because of Micheal's secret.

I like that they are keeping things from each other, finally some "decent" drama for them concerning their marriage.

This is what I hope I don't have to watch, again, but I wouldn't be surprised if they repeated it... because Higley still had input and she seems to like copying herself.

I liked Jessica and Nash today. I like David/Viki/Dorian/Clint. I enjoy Michael and Marcie a great deal. I really liked that there were so many characters enjoying the holiday today.

I think OLTL is pretty good right now. It has humor.

I really hope Marcie and Michael come out of this. I think the two actors have chemistry. I also think Jess and Nash have chemistry. The show has lacked that.

I like Miles and Marty as a couple and would much prefer them to Marty and John. I'm disappointed that they are doing this to Miles. As far as Jessica and Marty being friends? Big deal. So they are friends. The show needs more friends. There is no problem with that. Marty and Jessica are close in age. Miles is Jessica's uncle. There is nothing wrong with them being friends. It also would be rather strange IMO for Viki and Marty to be chumming around on a holiday. My regret is that Natalie was not at the barbecue.

So it looks like I missed a decent show today, or at least a fun one. And I didn't record it. O well, I should have stayed home instead of braving the crowds at Ikea.

Watched the show today and liked alot of what I saw.

I agree. But it's not about the writing or Clint at all. It's just that whenever I see JvD on screen, I automatically think of him as Ross Marler. But thank God OLTL is actually treating him well. What is it with this show for picking up the actors that GL unceremoniously fires (Michael Zaslow, JvD)?

The Viki/David/Dorian/Clint scenes were the highlight of the day. I laughed my ass off when Dorian and Clint walked in on David giving Viki a massage. LMAO!

I've been feeling gipped lately with Langston and Markko, it's like the writers said "we used them for the prom night musical mess, so now we don't have to follow up on them." That sucks, because they made headway with them, and now it's like nothing. It wouldn't have been that hard to show them at the pool with Starr and Cole... at this point, the only time I stop FF Starr is when she's with Dorian, Marcie, or Langston. Cole and their romance has made her almost unbarable to watch at times.

      Why didn't Steve respect Monica and Jeff's decision?  I get he's Jeff's father, and that's how it came out, but I don't like the ethics of the story.
    • Question: Jon-Michael Reed's review of 1977 is up in the retro soap section.  It includes a fleeting reference to comedic scenes between Jeanne Cooper and Julianna McCarthy regarding “Kay's would-be beau, Ralph the Plumber”.  Could someone please fill me in will more details? I forgot that Kay and Liz were friendly before Jill stole Kay's husband.  And the thought of Liz playing a comedic scene blows my mind, because I only recall her being dour both in demeanor and wardrobe.  
    • I said on Twitter on Friday when Leslie mentioned Chicago that perhaps she might be related to one of Anita's bandmates. Since we hardly know anything about Leslie's childhood background. In addition, Leslie said she grew up listening to The Articulettes….
    • There was a scene in the past week or two with Leslie looking at some papers and mementos, which included an invitation or souvenir from Alan's memorial service or funeral -- it was dated as November 2024. Me just guessing but it seems to me that Martin's nightmares about the accident are from something longer ago than November.
    • ah thanks! do you know who the third one was in the blonde? the fifth one i know ive seen before in the brown wig but i forgot, and then ive never seen the psychic one before lol
    • I felt for Ted early on but as the story unfolded it has changed my opinion on him. To know he was cheating while his wife was struggling to give him a baby is a lot to deal with. Plus, this happened ages ago and still he's paying Leslie off and threatening her to leave town.  What really caused me to lose him in this episode was how even though he was busted, he still refused to take responsibility and come clean and the way he talked to Martin and Eva was terrible. To tell Smitty he better get Martin away from him when that is his SON who he used to cover up his affair? That is true dog behavior. Ted seems upset he got caught but I'm not seeing the remorse I would need to want Nicole to forgive him. I'm curious how I'll feel after Ted gets to talk to Nicole but I need him to fix it with the rest of the family as well.
    • I'm sorry. I well remember Jake doing Doris but I have no independent memory of the story around it.  Krystle with a K Lake, sure, both Tony the Tuna stories & NOT.  And, Jake also impersonated a woman named Bunny Eberhardt but he didn't know she was a woman so there was no drag. This weekend I re-watched Kevin & Mac, GH, and my strong impression is exactly what it was when I watched it in real time: They did not let them look very pretty. Of course, I think the best ever drag on GH was Alexis posing as the Q butler.  In a different use of drag at AW one Halloween, Jensen Buchanan went as Charlie Chaplin & Judi Evans went as, I think, a male gypsy.

    • I'm not sure who wanted them to dump REUNION & instead do a "Dallas-like daytime show" but it seems that it def came from NBC to AW through Rauch, so, yes, it absolutely could have been his (cough-another-stupid?) decision!!!! I've just begun the new Lisanti book so maybe I will find out. (I waited for the kindle version to come out.) I would apologize for being so critical & so sarcastic, too, but, well, I'm not actually sorry!  Silverman was NOT a friend to AW.  And, I believe the critique is on point & deserved! I wanted to explain why I think the timing is off for the 90 minute show to be a reaction to the GH Luke & Laura story & its hype. Because, for sure, networks & production companies did react to it! The first 90 minute show was Monday, March 5, 1979.  And, there was some unknown amount of time ahead of that with people arguing about it & then, planning it.  The Luke & Laura wedding was mid-November 1981.  They were on the run from Frank Smith & stayed overnight in Wyndham's Dept. Store early August 1980. 
    • terrible at using forums and inserting photos, but jake in another world had a drag persona named doris, anyone know the episode or year? http://www.anotherworldhomepage.com/ffad19.jpg
    • Yes, I am familiar with Fred Silverman. Agree, the 90 minute AW a very poor decision by Silverman. I think Silverman was behind the decision to go with Texas.
