Welcome_to_Llanview.jpg


Welcome to the One Life to Live Discussion Thread for the week of July 23rd, 2007. It looks to be an interesting week as Viki finds out the truth about David. Hope you enjoy your visit and are prepared to discuss the interworkings of Llanview, PA and OLTL. If so, then you're in the right place.



So let the discussion of the good, bad, and ugly that is Llanview, Pennsylvania & One Life to Live begin...

I hope today is better than yesterday. Monday was filled with people I don't care about with the exception of Todd (who was knocked out) and Blair and John. If sure hope Monday isn't any indication of what OLTL has in store for us the week.

Monday was a fast forward day for me also. It just didn't include any stories I enjoy. We all have those days though. I like Scotty's spoilers and I really like the abc medianet pictures of the funeral. I haven't watched Tuesday's yet, but previews did have David and Clint so I will probably enjoy at least part of the show.

At least I didn't fall asleep during the show today like I did yesterday. LOL.

Alway enjoy Viki and David, and I felt so bad for Viki when Clint told her what David had done. And boy did he shock the you know what out of me when he picked up the computer and threw it against the wall. Was so not expecting that, and honestly it was uncalled for, but that's just me. Viki broke my heart and I truly want Clint and David to regret what each one has done to bring even more unhappiness into Viki's life.

Really enjoyed the scenes with Vincent, Shaun (who I love so much better than Vincent) and Renee. They were quite funny, they made me laugh.

Don't do it Rex! Run as far away from the drip as you can get.

And I enjoyed Todd's "Hey there sis. What up?" LOL

Well, well, well....looks like you guys have been talking about me....I guess now I know why my ears were burning earlier today. :P

Jay, how can you say today was boring? The Viki/David stuff was great, Todd's been found, and Renee was funny cutting up with Vincent and Shaun. The rest was snoozeville however.

Christina...I agree with you about Clint throwing the computer like that. I too thought it was completely unexpected and surprised the snot out of me. And I also really liked Todd's comments to Viki at the end of episode. And the smile on his face when he said it was priceless. LOL

Thanks Jess...and there is actually a little more Viki/Clint/Dorian/Nora/Marcie/Michael stuff I had to leave out for that week (August 6th), but it looks really good. ;)

I thought the the Pagie/Michael stuff was somewhat out of place today.

Vincent is starting to grow on me.

I agreed with everything Adriana said about herself. She is dumb, and Rex is even dumber for taking her back.

John was actually a little funny today while interrogating Kandi the happy hooker. He is also funny with David. But then again, David can make a train wreck funny.

Today's show was definitely better than yesterday's that's for sure. :)

I'm sorry Scotty, but I, too, thought it was dreadful today.

Sure there are little things here and there that should make me interested, but as a longtime viewer I'm about to pack it in unless things change drastically.

Hey Scotty, the spoilers do look good.

As for Tuesday, it was better than Monday for me. What I liked best about Tuesday was that some of these stories appear to be wrapping up. Rex and Adrianna annoy the hell out of me. I feel like I'm watching Antonio and Jessica from two years ago.

I enjoyed the David, Viki and Clint scenes, although throwing the laptop was a little unexpected. I hope Viki forgives David. I personally don't see them as a couple, but I do enjoy them as friends. I don't see how she forgives him though. I guess he would have to give the money back.

The best thing about the Todd stuff to me was that he has been found and perhaps the long saga of victim Todd is almost over. Vincent, Shaun and Renee were enjoyable. I can't watch the rest of the OPP story. It's too painful.

What I like best about OLTL right now is that many of these stories seem to be ending and many others turning a corner.

Thanks Jess. :)

Great post!

The Viki/Clint stuff was good. The Vincent/Shaun/Renee stuff was fun and creepy at the same time. A Vincent/Renee friendship would be very interesting I think.

I am glad to see some of Dena's storylines starting to draw to a close, especially the OPP storyline, which has gotten painful.

OLTL is slowly, but surely getting back on the right track, IMO.

Thank goodness, there is something for me to look forward to that week.

At first, I did too. But when they wheeled Todd in and then the previews for today, it actually made some sense that Paige would question him about him and Marcie. Too bad there wasn't more Marcie since she told him, TPTB already screwed me over in watching her go through the process... the least they can do is concentrate on the follow up with her worrying about Michael.

:lol:

Agree! The whole time, I was like STFU Adriana... you will get even dumber before this whole thing is over at the end of the week.

Man Michael sure did look guilty today, and if he isn't careful someone is going to start asking questions on his actions, I mean Paige already started.

Loved seeing Viki with her brother, it made no sense what so ever to have her not involved in any part of this searching for Todd storyline. Hopefully we'll see something with Viki and Todd before Viki leaves town for whatever reason.

For some reason I still get some freaky vibes when Cole and Marty are in scenes together, especially when its just the two of them. Ewwww....LOL. Was SO glad to see Nora show up, she made those scenes so much easier to watch.

Just when I start to like this OPP storyline it is coming to an end. Did I just say that?

My one hope is that David gives the money back and Viki forgives him, basically for the simple fact that I want it to eat up Clint and Dorian that they are still very much close friends.

    • The link doesn't work.  The actual link is this: https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/composer-leonard-bernstein-s-children-request-his-music-be-played-in-the-kennedy-center-in-rebuke-to-trump/ar-AA1E7gw5 That's a reprint of a FoxNews article. MSN reprints stuff from many sources. You can tell the source from the logo above the headline on the msn page. The FoxNews article is describing what Leonard Bernstein's children wrote -- as a "letter to the editor" of the New York Times. Instead of reading it filtered through FoxNews, here is the original: "Our Dad, Leonard Bernstein, Would Want His Music Played at the Kennedy Center" https://www.nytimes.com/2025/05/02/opinion/kennedy-center-leonard-bernstein-protest.html Non-paywall archivedcopy of the same NYTimes letter, without commentary: https://archive.is/QaLqD
    • Might be a long shot, because I can't find a thing online about it, but I was Googling the actress that played Nell Cleary (Frank's cop friend that went through academy and then became cops together during the entire Brent Lawrence storyline). To my surprise, she passed away in 2011, at the very young age of 45. I can't find her obituary or anything online about her passing, but I'm curious, does anyone know what happened? Her IMDB only shows a few other acting gigs post-Guiding Light, so she didn't make a career out of it, but I thought she was a great actress in her role as Cleary. Her name was Mary Peterson.
    • What was Ruth Martin's association to the Thornton family?  I only remember the daughter that dated Tad, and she had a buxom mother.  But, did Ruth date David Thorton before Joe?

      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. A stranger gets to make life or death decisions over a wife's demands?   I hope Monica secretly never forgave Steve's chauvinism.
    • 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 this on Twitter on Friday when Leslie mentioned Chicago, so perhaps she might be related to one of Anita's bandmates. In addition, Leslie did say she grew up listening to The Articulettes too.
    • 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.
