Welcome_to_Llanview.jpg


Welcome to the One Life to Live Discussion Thread for the week of July 30th, 2007. It looks to be another fun week on OLTL. Also remember that starting this week, OLTL will reference the number 10,000 in each episode. See if you can find it. 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...

You know, I think I've been a pretty good and loyal poster over here, but even I get tired of fighting every single day with you folks about characters I enjoy watching. I'm taking a little break from here and letting you guys have it for a bit. ;)

The show overall was very lackluster IMO. My biggest problem with today, besides the fact that it was another John and Marty day, was that there weren't enough Jessica and Nash scenes in the episode. It seems like when couples finally get together and have a chance to be happy is when you hardly see them.

Cord and Tina! I just finished watching my recording of AMC and the first scene on OLTL was this. My favorite couple EVER in daytime history. I screamed but then had to rememebr they arent on the show. Please OLTL bring them back. The second they announce that those 2 return, is the day I start watching the show again. Nothing would make me happier.

I just had to comment that they had Sarah looking at that pic but the baby in it wasnt her. That was CJ. Karen Witter's Tina gave birth to Sarah.

Overall it was a good episode. I really like the new Sarah, and she is fun with Rex and Christian. I like it when Christian's not brooding. I also liked Viki and Starr, as well as Dorian/Adriana/Layla. Let me just say that Tika Sumpter as Layla is awesome. She's definitely come into her own on the show, and while I admire that the writers are stick with the Vincent/Layla throughline I hope they either make Vincent worth the girl's time or give her a really exciting new romance.

Of course, the weak links were the always irritating Saybrooke family <_< It's funny; I really liked Brandon Buddy and Christina Chambers when they were first introduced but my interest in them both has waned. Brandon Buddy, for days now, has been out-performed by Eddie Alderson. Christina Chambers is failing to realize the levity of her character's situation and failing to recognize the inherent strength that the Marty Saybrooke character should inhabit. Either recast them both or have the Saybrookes find out that their beloved Patrick is alive and leave town looking for him.

Enjoyed Viki and Starr, but I always do. I just love their relationship.

Layla and Vincent are really good together, so I hope that develops more and I LOVE it when ever I can get me some Shaun.

I hope Rex doesn't take Adriana back, she doesn't deserve him.

Really enjoying Cris, Rex and Sarah. It never fails one of those boys always do something that makes me laugh when they are with Sarah. I love it when they give her a hard time. I really like the character, even though she is a rich brat.

The only time I find myself remotely enjoying Adriana is when she's sharing a scene with Dorian. Maybe they should actually do a decent storyline involving these two. I loved Dorian with Layla and Shaun. As for Adriana, her admitting that she was wrong for what she did to Rex isn't going to save the already doomed couple. If Rex had any sense, he would step totally away from her.

For once, I see some hope in the Vincent character. I have to wonder though if it's Higley or Ron writing this little storyline for him; because others would have over looked the great conflict within the character that it's causing.

This Cristian/Sarah/Rex mess is like a flashback to Cristian/Jessica/Will... only in this case, I'm not feeling the girl. Why can't Cristian have a good developed relationship with someone outside of the Buchanan/Lord family (and no, compared to Jessica and Natalie TPTB didn't do his relationship with Evangeline any justice especially with the way it ended), because I see this heading for a Cristian/Sarah pairing.

Good question. As of now, I don't think so. Both of them seem to be in some serious denial if they do have any sort of feelings for one another.

I watched the show for the first time in awhile. It wasn't bad. I thought John and Miles played off each other really well. I liked Miles not backing down from John and calling him on his crap.

I'm glad Antonio said he wasn't going to forgive Jessica. He shouldn't. She did him and Jamie wrong.

Todd and Blair actually had an adult conversation about his feelings for Evangeline. I'm sure these two will end up together eventually but at least they know they have a long way to go before they can get back to the way things were before Spencer came to town.

    • That was the original point of me sending you her 6 airdates, so now with those, and the link to the daily episode guide I've provided, that should help you more easily find the additional Ruth Buzzi scenes. I will always repeat myself when it comes to defending my data that I've taken decades to research and compile. But, as you pointed out in a recent post, I am kind, so at least I will do it with you in a kind way as opposed to the usual social media way most people do with just getting rude/nasty. That's not my style, as you correctly pointed out earlier this week, and never will be.  So, all is well!

    • Ambyr Michelle continues to be *that girl.* She’s just a star, period. Elevates every scene she’s in on the sheer strength of her emotional realism and charisma. Can sell any dialogue. I wish the show veered away from the B&B-style scripting. TMG/Leslie’s tirade stood out, I suppose, but she’s getting a bit mustache-twirly. And I wish DD had more to do in that episode than stand and sob.
    • Well, that was down to CBS being weak and not being willing to just pulling the plug entirely. They didn't want to commit to cancelling the show in case they needed it for their schedule basically; plus they kept showing that they were willing to make cuts if needed to be. 
    • I'm sorry but clearly what I've said is not satisfactory to you. I have now read what you have to say, twice. As it happens, my interest at this point is looking at other mislabeled files to find this other Ruth Buzzi content. I do not see any point to each of us repeating ourselves, so I will leave it here. 
    • It seemed to be your intent. coming into a thread I started and making multiple posts saying my data was wrong. In the next paragraph you say "Of course, I was suspicious from the very first instance where what I saw & heard did not agree with what it should have.  I'm very glad to know why." That certainly didn't stop you from immediately saying the data was wrong, until I provided additional receipts. Why did you not check the daily episode guide (for instance, this one for the 1980's) I posted for the world to see for exactly this reason...to help confirm airdates: http://daytimeroyaltyonline.com/days-daily-summaries-1980-1989-t15361.html? That is what you should be checking BEFORE you make any posts in the future like this, trying to suggest something from my data is incorrect. You could have also messaged me and asked me why your dates weren't adding up with what the correct data is. I would have fast forwarded through that video you posted, spotted Roman and Hope and immediately have told you that was the 11/1/83 episode.
    • Jason, just let me say that it was not my intent to any way impugn any of your data  or research. I'm very sorry if it came out that way. Obviously the person I got these 4 November episodes from has mislabeled files, multiples, which I was certainly unaware of.  When I am editing it is all about what I see & hear. Later, I find time for greater reflection.  Of course, I was suspicious from the very first instance where what I saw & heard did not agree with what it should have.  I'm very glad to know why.  If you find you are no longer interested in the edit, that is fine. I have no ego in this. I did it only to share it.
    • I feel like Vernon and Anita need to not be hypocrites and try and take the heat off Bill in this case. It's clear that the family used him as a fixer and especially knowing he helped with Martin's situation, they need to either be quiet or support him. BTW...with Vanessa being in the hospital for food poisoning, am I the only one who thought Shanice was gonna say she's pregnant or had an STD? The only reason I say STD is because she hasn't had any memorable sex partners, but I definitely don't believe she just had food poisoning.
    • Yeah, I mean I know that the name still pertains. I just laugh at it not now being called Arizona Dust, but, I admit it simply does not have the same ring to it. Above, that is interesting that Arizona had already come up before the crisis. 
    • Anita vs. Leslie, bring it!
    • Leslie and her family are from Chicago? Anita's background also includes being a former Chi-Town native? Might they connect this and go somewhere with it?
