Erika Slezak brings laughs to the May-December romance on 'OLTL'

MASTER CLASS: THE BEST OF THE BEST

Erika Slezak and Tuc Watkins, One Life to Live

After languishing on the backburner for eons, six-time Emmy winner Erika Slezak (Viki) is finally getting some valuable screen time in what has to be her funniest storyline to date. As David tries to convince Viki to sleep with him to make their exes (Dorian and Clint) jealous, Tuc Watkins and Slezak have morphed into a dynamic comedy team, providing the only real laughs in daytime these days. We’re not sure how committed OLTL is to this farce of a romance, but we’d like to see it develop into something real. Watkins’ return to the show is limited, but perhaps OLTL will convince the scene-stealer to stick around for a while. In fact, we smell the makings of a really exciting quadrangle between Clint, Dorian, David and Viki — proving veterans make the soap world go round, not the untalented young newbies we’re always saddled with during the summer.

TOP 5 COUPLES TO WATCH

1. Phyllis and Nick, Y&R

2. Viki and David, OLTL

Nice to see a shout out to Erika and Tuc. I would have to agree that on OLTL, they are the best thing to watch. Too bad it is short lived because I could really go for more of these two quirky romance.

That I will agree with. They take every opportunity to tear Viki down and shove their 'relatioship' in Viki's face, so I am very happy for Viki to be able to toss it back in their faces with David. That is definitely the huge plus, but again, to me they have ruined the Clint character and dumbed down Dorian to a desperate soulless woman, so they can both go and leave me to watching Viki and David thank you very much ;)

I love the four of them together. They need to be utilized more. Tuc Watkins is hysterical as David. He could make reading the back of a box of Wheaties funny. Pairing up David and Viki is genius. We are seeing the people we like, we are laughing and we aren't seeing people we don't like like that Tate guy.

I have been so enjoying the stuff between Viki and David, its been so much fun to watch and I really hate to see it come to an end, and I have to wonder if they are going to ruin the friendship that Viki and David have built by him blackmailing Clint for the money in donating half his liver for Jessica.

I have to admit that I too enjoy David and Viki together....What a great way to also capitalize on the Viki/Dorian history and feud. Even if it is nothing more than a great friendship that occurs between these two, Viki will always be greatful to David for saving Jessica's life.

    • 5-9   Honestly? There's nothing going on. And yet unlike Y&R, I'm not bored. But I just think that's because of the acting going on as they play the beats in this Liam dying storyline. Well, that and the outfits.   If there's anything I'm liking it's the continued drama of Daphne going after Carter and not letting anyone get in her way. Not Brooke. Not Katie. NO ONE.    And while I love TK in those glasses, I am not here for a Brooke/Ridge/Taylee triangle.    And of course, Luna would try to use this Liam mess to get closer to Finn.   Okay week.
    • The acting during those Sarah scenes on Friday was horrific.
    • So true. Their hypocrisy is on another level. When Anita called Ted a coward because he used Bill as a fixer, I almost choked on my Ritz. And Dani calling Ted worse than Bill as a husband because Bill never pretended to be a good person? Then why stay with him for decades and continue to kiss up to him, Dani? I was glad when Bill told Anita he wouldn't be her punching bag. Not for me. I can think of 100 other actors who would have smoking hot chemistry with LB. Lindstrom does not. I see zero chemistry. None. Joey isn't sexy or scary.   -- Mona was awesome today. -- Why was Eva playing cards in the back room of the casino? -- Can they make Anita any more sanctimonious and self-righteous? -- Dani said Anita had Ted shook. LOL. Really?       No. But I see what you're trying to do. This is a SOAP OPERA. Characters HAVE to make mistakes and sin and screw up and cheat. That's the deal. I understand the concern that we have 2 leading Black men who have cheated on their wives. I do. But I also understand that this is SOAPS 101. Are we going to hear complaints every time a Black character messes up???    
    • Gone are the days where at least once every week, a character would pull a gun on someone (Ron you really turned gun violence into a joke on this show)
    • Oooooo I like these. I like we are on the same page about Little Brownie Man. And I hope to remember this at the end of June to see how much of it came to pass. I definitely feel that the Eva vs Kat story is about to reaaaally get going.    As for the B/C stories, it's funny you mentioned the Joey/Vanessa/Doug story first. Because out of all of those, it is the only one that has enough structure and build to it that it could keep going as a B story that could eventually climax. I think the only POV we don't have in it is Joey's at this point because Month 2 put in the work to give us Doug's and Vanessa's and they are now circling each other and their relationship. And we still need to know Joey's endgame.   Why we gotta pick on Jacob and Naomi? We need that goody good couple. lol. They talked about how they got together. Mind you, very briefly. But we do need to know a little bit more about both. Something I was hoping we were getting by having them in their own stories....him with the crooked cop, her with the lawsuit...but it didn't turn out as hoped. Hopefully, that won't be the case with June though.   Yeah, I want to see more of THAT Ashley.  I finally had to break down and explain to my manager why I keep laughing every time I see the bottle of Febreze at work. The product placement definitely be working.

    • That is a specific example where I would agree with those fans so I would be critical of the execs doing so. I frankly think that "caring" in this regard is not conducive to dialog. Basically you point out its very subjective nature. What is caring to one person might be callous disregard to another. I suggest it is a trap & we fell in it!
    • Does anyone know of a place where I could watch older episodes of RC??? I really would love to watch more of this show, and I would decide if I would join the save River city campaign, I HATE when soaps are killed, but sometimes you should let them go too
