Welcome_to_Llanview.jpg


Welcome to the One Life to Live Discussion Thread for the week of October 29th, 2007. It looks to be a great week on OLTL, as we Tonja Walker and Tuc Watkins return as Alex and David, "Death" visits Llanview, and so much more! 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...

Can anyone keep me up to speed about the last three OLTL eps? I missed them and I have no way to see them... :(

If someone is willing, just generally, I know a lot of things must have happened. Mostly about Vikki and Todd/Marcie stories :).

I really enjoyed the show today.

Of course the Paris crew was my favorite. It's so good to see Viki finally happy and enjoying her life, and I really am liking Gigi, at least she's getting Viki to talk about her feelings and her life.

As much as I didn't think I'd like the Marcie/Drag Queens thingy, it wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be, it was actually kinda funny.

Can't wait for Blair to find out that Rex and Adriana have known for a while now that Tommy was Todd's, they need to pay as much as Michael does in keeping that secret.

Have to shake my head at Renee, I mean this is usually a very smart woman and I can't believe she is not seeing Jared (whom I really like) for what he is, a con man. Although I loved the interaction between Renee and Natalie today.

For me, the one thing that I could do without is Todd and John in the car.

I can forgive Renée. She's in mourning and unbalanced. Her attraction to Jared is icky and compelling at the same time. Maybe I'm just happy to see more of her.

Can't stand John or Todd but am willing to endure them as the story moves forward.

At first, I wasn't feeling this drag queen/Marcie plot point... but I have to say, that it's actually way better than I thought. I like how they connected it to Eric, and how they are protective of her and Tommy. Harvey and Lee was too funny.

As for Todd and John, really? Why do they need to be seen in the car arguing? I mean, Todd is an ass who only thinks of himself, and John is just plain annoying.

I really not feeling the whole Paris thing.

Well, not a whole lot of movement really, imo Vikki has a customer that GiGi is encouraging her to flirt with. I think he knows who she really is, but that's just my guess. He's moving into the hotel V is staying at.

Todd and John are in the car arguing about if Todd can be a good parent. Meanwhile, the FBI agent is on Marcie's trail, but she is saved by drag queens. Blair is trying to be Langston's foster mother, but Todd doesn't know yet.

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!

The Paris Storyline is getting really interesting, isn't it?

Oh, and did everyone catch the fact that they are going to TEXAS for Asa's will? Oooh, something tells me some ol', good-fashioned soap run-in will occur. :D :D :D

Maybe it's lack of sleep talking but I loved today's show. And I am no fan of drag queens.

I even enjoyed the teens, John and Todd, but most of all I loved the frenetic pacing. Not every episode should be like this, but one or two here and there is a great upbeat change.

Even the fantasy elements had me. It's been a long time since I've liked Melissa Archer as much as I did in that witch costume. David Fumero needs to do more scenes that take advantage of his laid back style (or lack thereof).

And as of today, I officially love Justus Bolding's version of Sarah. She reminds me of a very young version of Julie Harris.

John Brotherton as Jared? Loved him. Message to PTB: Don't overexpose him like you did with Michael Easton.

    • 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. 
    • 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?
    • Honestly who's to say Leslie even birthed Eva, I mean she's a liar, I wouldn't believe a word she says about Eva being Ted's(or hers)
    •   1. 11/1/83 cast/set list:  

      Please register in order to view this content

          The "11/2/83" video you posted of Ruth Buzzi's scenes includes Roman and Hope in them, meaning the video you posted is actually 11/1/83, since Roman and Hope aren't in 11/2/83.   2. The video you posted of "11/2/83" has scenes with Roman and Hope. As you can see from my cast/set list, Roman and Hope are not in the 11/2/83 episode (see above note):   4573...11/2/83: Cast: Mickey, Julie, Doug, Maggie, Neil, Don, Marie, Alex, Liz, Andre as Tony, Gwen, Chris, Eugene, Sandy, Letitia, Charlene, Mrs. Whiting, Wanda/Guard, Dave, Delia, Saleslady # 1, Saleslady # 2, Figure in Dark, Raven/animal, Cats/animals, Birds/animals.   2.  11/3/83 :My video collection starts with 11/4/83. so I don't have the 11/1/83 or 11/3/83 video, but in addition to the cast/set list for 11/3/83, here is also the parking clearance call sheet for that day, showing Ruth was not only in the cast/set list but did work that day:     They even had hired the animal trainer and all the animals for the day, so It's sort of a certainty that her scenes were not cut that day, or it would have been a big waste of the budget. 3. As for 11/7/83, I just fast-forwarded through that whole episode myself. Letitia is in it from start to finish. It's her big final episode where she is killed. She starts the episode saying "Eugene, are you there?" In the next act, Marlena shows up and meets Letitia's lion. Later in the episode, Letitia is killed by "Eugene" (the Salem Slasher in a Eugene mask).   So, as we can see from your own post, the 11/2/83 date you have listed on that video is incorrect, since Hope and Roman are in that video but not in the 11/2/83 episode.It seems the dates you have on all your early November 1983 episodes are incorrect.   When you post videos and suggest that my data is incorrect, do you not first compare who is in the scenes and see if that matches who is in the episode? You didn't do that with the "11/2/83" episode, which based on Roman and Hope being in it means that is actually 11/1/83. Best to do something like that first before suggesting my data and research is incorrect.
    • Within the Dupree family, I predict Vernon/Anita will be conflicted about what to do about Bill and his role in the whole Ted/Silk Press Sheila situation... especially since Bill knows where the particular bone about Martin is buried. Dani, Chelsea, and Naomi's reactions to what Bill possibly did isn't hard to guess.. but Hayley's reactions will be interesting to hear.  Especially given her recent pregnancy scare.. she might not be so much on Bill's side, or she'll totally surprise us and be totally on Bill's side.   Either way, I think Martin's secret will be the main focus in May sweeps.. with the fall out of the Eva secret playing out in the background... while the Joey/Vanessa/Doug thing continues to boil/develop.
    • Hotel was The Love Boat on land but a little soapier. I will forever maintain that Hotel was a time slot hit. I don't believe that 1983/84 Hotel was a better show than Knots Landing.
