Welcome to the One Life to Live Discussion Thread for the week of October 1st, 2007. It looks to be a great week on OLTL, as a number of storylines to begin to really heat up. 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...

TERRIFIC episode today, very enjoyable! The parts with Talia and George were actually really funny and the Todd/Marcy storyline is going along greatly. One thing I'm not too crazy about, though, is how Lindsay's breakdown is portrayed. I was finding myself hoping Ms. Hickland did it a little differently. However, OLTL has been top notch, so many touching moments with Will, such nice writing.

Enjoyed today's ep--the Talia/George stuff was actually really funny (as dumb as I find it that she's making up this George bf I have to admit i've even foudn myself caught in lies/situations liek that before aroudn crushes so I guess it's not too odd). Nice to see Addie too! Now if only Ron would write in a little scene showing us Larry Wolek still alive and well I'd be happy...

My one gripe was Cole's trun around--he was all smiles at the end of the wedding on Friday and now he's all down Star's throat?

hated the teens.

Rest was good.

Really loving BO for some reason. Must be my Daddy complex.

No but seriously, I find Carlivati is writing well for Bo. I "get"his character at this stage in the story.

Good show. The Todd and Blair stuff was good. I like Blair making Todd move into La Boule! Should be entertaining!

The George stuff was dumb, but cute.

The Addie and Will scene was weird. I don't see the point of it. If you going to bring back Addie, she should have been at the wedding. Not some strange conversation with Will.

Over the years, my friends have made a point of comparing my poor mother to Dorian Lord. I must admit there are similarities. My Mum is a doctor. And the driveway to our family summer cottage is lined with weeping birches.

Hey, Eric, you watching Corrie?

Nora today, what a biyatch! I hated her scene with Lindsay. Ugh! She's really reverting back into old habits. I wanted Lindsay to snap out of it yell out boo! and strangle her. Now that would have made for a good cliffhanger

Starr's 15? Okay I stopped watching the show in Nov of last year and before that I know that Todd was getting her a car. So now she's 15? She has to be at least 16

Yesterday Michael said that TnB have been divorced twice? Havent they been married like 4 times before now already? Did he mean twice since he came to town?

Line of the day. Marcie's lawyer said "You have quite the talent for udnerstatements" and Blair responded with "and you got quite the talent for being a b-tch" LOL

      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 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.
