^^ Yeah that's true. Shouldn't Natalie or even god awful Miles notice that Viki isn't around? I know that either Jess or Natalie asked where she was on Monday but I don't think there was anything more.

This week was ok. I didn't think my hatred towards the character of John McBain could get any deeper. He is awful.

OLTL still needs a lot of work done and I hope Ron does a good job. I pray to god that he gets rid of Marty, Cole, and Miles. I can't stand any of them. It is really taking a while for his stories to air, isn't it?

With 18 of 23 episodes aired so far this month here are a few highlights...

John 15/18 for 83%

Natalie 15/18 for 83%

Nora 13/18 for 72%

Miles 13/18 for 72%

Marcie 11/18 for 61%

Michael 12/18 for 67%

Lindsay 10/18 for 56%

Marty 8/18 for 44%

Those are just a few of the ones that have caught my eye so far. Only 5 more episodes to go for the month of August.

I actually like that Lindsay's the killer. If Paige were the killer, the story would have been wrapped up in a neat little bow and we would have had months of filler stuff. Making Lindsay the killer - and I'm assuming it's because she knew the truth about Tommy and wanted to protect Marcie - leads the resolution of this humdrum murder mystery into the much more compelling Todd/Blair/Marcie/Michael story that will no doubt umbrella throughout the show. Bravo to whoever thought of it - I'm assuming it was Ron Carlivati but maybe Higley left us with one nice parting gift.

This is exactly what I was thinking as well This is a great way to finally tie up this long, drawn out story. No cop outs of Paige or Marty now this is leading somewhere and using characters to drive the story instead of the story driving the characters. I like the use of history and character traits of the people we already know and are invested in and this was the perfect way to glide right into the next big story instead of wrapping up a story and then shuffling their feet for a month waitng for the next one to start like they usually do this way there is no lull, no break and this reveal involves a lot more people and ties a lot more characters to the story leading to the huge umbrella story of the Marcie/Michael/Todd/Tommy story.. I am very happy with it and I loved the last two days of the show.

    • 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?
