Recommended Posts

Somebody pressed the Funny Button on today's show:

Allison to Roxy: "I came for the flan, but I stayed for the company"

Todd to Lindsay: "Go to Hell, Stabby."

Lindsay: You're on the wrong end of this trial, Nora". Nora: "Get out of here Lindsay. or you are going to be on the wrong end of my foot".

And then there was Todd's speech to the judge!

LOL!!!

LOL! I loved that line. It was nice to see Todd being allowed to himself yesterday.

It's been awhile since I've watched an entire episode and I have to say it wasn't bad.

Roxy and Allison were a hoot. I'm very interested in finding out this secret Allison keeps talking about.

Todd was funny, even John managed to be laid back.

I still can't stand Marcie but she and Michael had some really sweet scenes yesterday. Chris Stack is doing a great job.

Hahaha....that was funny, Allison telling Roxy that she was good at changing babies when she took Bree to change her diaper.

:lol:

And is it just me, or did Viki's long time maid Lois dye her hair a different color? It looks different today.

I thought Lois's hair used to be brown and not red. But it was SO good to see her today, talk about a site for sore eyes.

Allison just cracks me up. I really enjoy that whacked job. LOL.

And dammit, Charlie was about to come clean with Viki but of course got interrupted. At least he's feeling guilty for the lie, don't see how it can last much longer. Loved seeing Viki with Gigi and Shane again, hope we get more of them together.

Jess and Natalie are quite fun to watch as they scramble to find Allison.

Seems that Jared is either jealous or realizing what Charlie is doing for him by keeping his secret.

I am SO ready for this Go Red Ball.

^^No, I think you're right...it seems like Lois's hair used to be brown. But still it was great to see her again. I've always thought it would be cool if they hooked her up with Nigel.

Today's show was pretty good. It's not often these days I get to watch OLTL as it airs, what with student teaching and all. But snow days yesterday and today have allowed me to do just that.

I love snow days! :)

OLTL is on fire...

Nora and bo vs the gov- I loved it. Nora was so strong and sassy. Bo is going to lose his job- dumbazz!!!!

Lindsay is going to get it when her secret comes out.

Nat/Jess- I still love them.

allison/Roxy- so great. I loved the scissors bit. Bree needs a haircut and a nook.

Jared- I love you!!! I smell jealousy over Charlie.

Charlie is just jumping into a pit!!!

Todd and Blair- I loved that Todd told Blair everything. I loved the hug and the kiss. Todd and Blair forever!!!

Antonio and Talia are boring as all hell!!!

You noticed that too, I was wondering if it was just something I thought was there and really wasn't. Jared did indeed look jealous about this Charlie saying he is Rex's father. I can't wait to see Charlie and Jared now that Jared knows what Charlie is doing to keep his secret.

Finally have a chance to give a take on the last couple of shows.

Monday, I already commented on and loved :)

Tuesday was full of soapy goodness and so many one liners to keep track off! The only thing I did not care for was too much John McBain playing hero/savior. Please make his character go bad or be gone!

Today, Wednesday there were so many character interactions and s/l movement going on, loved it.

Allison again was a hoot, with her holding Bree and saying "I am good at changing babies" :lol: I am a newbie and even got the nod to history there with Nat/Jess' previous scenes.

Charlie was so ready to tell Viki about his lie until Miss "bad timing Gigi" walked in :P I love Gigi but yeah she has bad timing :lol: Loved how uncomfortable Gigi seemed to feel in that house and being invited to the ball, that was well played.

Todd and Blair's honest conversation was sweet, I know many old school OLTL fans are sick of TnB but as a newbie I really enjoy how these two are being written.

Oh and Nora, sticking her finger down her throat while Lindsay was talking to Bo...classic!

I read it over and over again that OLTL is soooooooooooooooo borring but I love how everything is coming together. IMO, this is classic soap writing. To watch storylines overlap as well as stand on their own is something you just don't get that on other soaps these days.

BRAVO to RC and his crew & WELCOME BACK!!!!

    • I was so confused why Devon was prying into Nicks love life and then it clicked and I remembered they’re brother-in-laws. Shows how little I pay attention to this show anymore. I was like uh? Do these two even know each other this well?     
    • The Bell soaps, B&B and Y&R: cannot watch. If I went by the last time I did I would have to give them both D- but I really don't think it counts when you're not a daily watcher.  DAYS: B+ (Now this is with the knowledge that for years I have given this show a D- because I've been a fan for too long to give it the F it deserved.) GH: A+ (With Korte driving this bus to me the show is so much better! IMO we just had the best NB in so many years I cannot count!) BTG: A solid (Things I love, a few I do not, nothing I hate, still find it in general remarkable.) As always, thanks for doing this thread. I count it. I always look for it & I always post. 
    • Okay, I continue to maintain that what is so good about this particular reveal followed by umbrella storyline is that you can see & understand many different points of view where there is not one bad guy or one 100% right person.  About your stated opinion, that Lois & Gloria did the right thing, you know that this was technically an illegal adoption? For it to have been legal the father, if known, would have to have been informed & have signed off on terminating his own paternal rights. And, of course, it is clear how many people they lied to.  Personally I feel like Lois is going to take the biggest "public" blame with Lulu a close second in the blame category. I am looking forward to a tongue lashing I hope Brook Lynn gives to Gloria. I continue to be more than annoyed with Dante. First his attitude toward Gio with regards to Rocco & a drinking game & its results. Second his attitude toward Lulu. Meanwhile enjoying the show every day!
    • Lois and Gloria did the right thing I feel knowing it was Camila that raised Gio has BL feeling some jealousy No one is saying that Camila was a bad mother to Gio I believe it will be Gio saying that Camila was great to him, thanking Lois and Gloria to get BL to see truth
    • Its realistic for Dani and  true of how the character thinks and operates. We've known her long enough to by that this would be consistent with her past characterizatioin
    • Random takes: - What was even the point of that jeweler guy? Also—Dani was borderline harassing him. - I know I’m probably in the minority here, but I want Jacob and Kat to happen. I need something messy to completely dismantle the Duprees—and Katomas just isn’t cutting it.  - I officially can’t stand Jacob and his wife. Same goes for Anita and Vernon. - Hayley’s corset was just as ugly as it looked uncomfortable. - I genuinely don’t remember when or how Derek and Ashley reconciled—and I’m someone who didn’t even mind their storyline! LMAO. - Tuesday’s episode was a mess. - Dani finding out about Hayley’s pregnancy and immediately thinking, “She’s faking it”—huh?! What writer thought that was a realistic reaction? I get denial, but that leap was absurd. I agree the ‘Leslie Victorious’ moment was way OTT. But hey, at least I wasn’t yawning. The following episode, where she handed over her daughter’s last few belongings was much better. - I can’t with the constant back-and-forth between Orphey Gene’s and the Country Club. I forgot this was such a soap trope, but even back in my loyal viewer days (late ‘90s, early 2000s), it wasn’t this bad. While GH has a ton of beautiful sets, we’re stuck with the same three—and half of them are ugly. Also: it’s been way too long since we had a party, gala, or any kind of event. I know the Richardsons’ anniversary gala (back in late April) has had a big ripple effect, but I was kinda getting used to those large-scale episodes. Fingers crossed they don’t go with Guza.  
    • The horrific comments execs and writers make when they justify rape storylines or keeping rapists as love interests is just so icky. I remember Ron Carlivati's comments about the reraping of Marty storyline on OLTL. Made my skin crawl.  No matter what you think of her, Susan Lucci could have demanded front burner storylines but she never did. She was happy to be part of an ensemble. I never got that vibe from Zimmer.  For me, Reva was just not a character I cared that much about after a certain point no matter how talented Zimmer is/was. I think Zimmer had a keener eye for what made a good storyline, but she was less willing to take a backseat if it meant someone else got to shine. I'm trying to recall if she ever mentions Michelle Forbes in her book--one of the few times the viewers did not care about Reva in a storyline. My sense is if she did, it was probably some backhanded remark about how she had to show Forbes the ropes.    
    • GH was good? I havent watched since Joss went away to do her traininig and Lulu had just called Brooklyn out for having Dante's baby and not telling him
    • BTG: A-  DAYS: B+  Eastenders: C
    • There was a rumor that Jean will die and that’s probably why she’s back then
