This is the FIRST time EVER that I've enjoyed watching Adriana, so I hope they keep it up.

Natalie jealous over that kiss. Rex jealous over that kiss. Great soapy story. Although I can do without the bitchy Layla, thats the only thing that doesn't belong in this storyline.

I, of course loved the Viki/Charlie stuff toward the end, finally got something that made me FEEL them once again as a couple. It just wasn't there the last couple of weeks, so its nice to have that back. But I sure wish Charlie would come clean with Viki, so they can go from there.

Don't like the Talia/John stuff at all, I feel bad for Antonio.

Still not feeling all this Starr/Cole stuff.

Adriana was a total bitch today and I loved it. But I agree with you guys dorian needs to put her in check, Adriana can be a bitch to anyone else but not her own mom. An can they please give layla something to do, its really sad that shes just adriana's Gigi spy. Poor Gigi, with adriana sicing dorian on her she isn't gonna have a moments rest.

^^^^^ what is so great about Dorian helping Adriana, is that is SO going to backfire!! Please, Dorian doing everything to help her daughter marry Rex??? Bwah, yeah right! lol

Dorian to Adriana: "Are you worried about that girl GeeeGeee who calls herself Gigi" :lol: Robin Strasser is so great in her role!!

I loved Gigi vs. Layla, I am happy Gigi stood up to her and called her out about running to Adriana. The person Adriana needs to be worried about is Rex, not Gigi.

Finally we got some Viki/Charlie scenes, loved the dialogue between them and the looks they gave one another.

Jared and Nat banter was fun also.

Jared: "You make it sound like kissing me is torture." "I don't know what the big deal is"

Natalie: "you wouldn't"

These two are gonna be HOT when the truth comes out!

Marcie, eating, eating, eating.....could the show be hinting she is pregnant??

Did not care for Antonio's attitude towards Talia but at the same time I am sure it is difficult for him to trust after what Jessica did to him.

Ugh. Starr sucks. Completely sucks. She's a little girl, she never grows up, and she's just as ridiculous and childish as ever. Somebody please put her out of her misery.

Layla is pathetic, she did exactly what Gigi told her she was gonna do.

I'm with everyone else, Dorian should have kicked Adriana's ass to kingdom come. Rex annoyed the crap out of me today too, with the whole "He came on to her, he's her boss, it's wrong" thing. I think he's been Mr. Good Guy for just a little bit too long and it's getting to his head. And I know that it's probably the doing of the new writers, but Roxy hasn't been around lately. Could it be that since Rex has this great new father, he's sweeping his trashy mother under the rug?

My Jason rolly doesn't fit as a response to what I said FYI....

You don't even watch OLTL, so to say that the show sucks doesn't really matter to me. If you actually watched the show and looked at it objectively, I might actually get into a discussion with you about the show.

On it's worse day, OLTL is still better than ATWT.

There was a lapse for perhaps a week or 10 days when OLTL lost its suspense. For months, it definitely lacked the subtle humor that the current writers have deliciously entwined into the script . But it's definitely back in stride and hopefully other soaps will follow suit combining the hijinks-y soapy elements (both dramatic and comedic) with the human element.

I don't think I can say there's another soap around that I thoroughly enjoy despite the fact that it contains the most atrocious actress on daytime (talent-wise and character-wise): Kristen Alderson. And she's starring in a main storyline!

Any group of writers that can make bad actors bearable are remarkable. ATWT has more than a handful of award-winning actors and it doesn't have a 1/4 of the magic OLTL has.

    • 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?
    • 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)
