Members TC Posted May 9, 2008 Members Share Posted May 9, 2008 My weekly drive-by... Lots of humour and I love it. Rex was a riot today; David as well; but there's also so much built into Adrianna now, and Gigi, and even Natalie & Jared. Plus I laughed my ass of at poor Marko on that hook. Cole or John on the hook would have had me peeing my pants. And there are many other reasons to chuckle and I don't only mean that bare bum pic of JPL. Normal everyday ironies are all over the place. Lots of character motivation. It is taking me a long time to warm up to Gigi but her scenes with Viki and Marcie are damn close to winning me over. Loving that uberbitch Evelyn Evil Adrianna. Love how Dorian's created yet another monster that is way out of her control... and has none of her finesse. I can't believe I'm saying this but I will miss Adrianna when she is gone. And LANGSTON! WOW! Dorian and Langston together = brilliant! Blair and Langston together = brilliant! Todd and Langston together = brilliant! Robin Strasser really hit it out of the park this week. And then there is Brody Lovett's chest Aside from Brandon Buddy and the continued effort to beatify John McBain, I have no complaints. Please no Blair and John. KDP has more than earned her way out of that no win situation. Any complaints I've had about the teens have been capably handled by Brittany Underwood, David Tam, and as of today, Kristen Alderson. KA's scenes today were top notch. Brandon Buddy barely said a word today - GOOD. And Melissa Archer - damn I hated her for so long, now she's a breath of fresh air. I see great things for this show. *fingers crossed* Can't wait for tomorrow and next week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Gordon24 Posted May 9, 2008 Members Share Posted May 9, 2008 I really love Viki/Gigi & Marcie/Gigi's friendship. It comes off so natural(real) and is really fun to watch. FF is doing a great job in this role. It was great seeing David Vickers again, what the heck happened to his pants? lol I loved his comment about shutting up about the pie talk because that is what all the viewers were saying for a long time. *Writers reading the boards* Finally Dorian told Adriana off but also loved how Adriana threw her rivalry with Viki in her face. Poor Rex was so druuuuuuunk, went there looking for Gigi, and ending up stripping. I LMAO when he called out "What's my name!?" Then all the women ran to see Snoop Dogg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Ryan Posted May 9, 2008 Members Share Posted May 9, 2008 1) I LOVE JPL! He is a breathe of fresh air from your regular "soap leads" as of late. They've done a great job transitioning him from supporting to a semi-lead character. I'm writing a column on him this weekend. IMO, this is how it should be done. And umm......I'm totally making a banner of Rex & the pole 2) Farah Fath is so beautiful. I've always thought she was attractive, but it wasn't until NOW that I find her beautiful. I love the dark color of her hair, it brings out her eyes. She's turning into a very good actress, and much of that I think is because of the good writing and she's putting great effort forward. 3) Jarlie is love. It's true. I went from loving Natalie, to hating her, to wishing dead, to now loving her (THANK YOU RON CARLIVATI). Natalie and John was the WORST thing to happen to that show. It totally ruined her character and turned her into a weeping mess. Jared has been her "lifeline" so to speak (as far as getting her away from John) and I love it. I really enjoy them as a couple. 4) Todd......in the hands of a lesser actor, he would be a one note cartoon character (not everyone can play the multi-layers given to Todd in the writing).

Members rhythmchyc Posted May 9, 2008 Members Share Posted May 9, 2008 ITA w/ #1. The whole time, I was like, "LICK THE POLE!! LICK THE POLE!" LOL ITA w/ #3 too. I was always irritated by Melissa Archer's delivery. And even though she played conflicted during the Natalie/John storyline, she's sooo much better at it now. It's kinda crazy how well the writers are writing for this couple because, in the whole scheme of things, Jared is VERY slimy for what he did and so is Natalie for not saying anything. AND #4... <sigh> The day Roger Howarth left and the writers came up with the lame storyline that Todd had plastic surgery was one of the best days in OLTL history. Trevor is AMAZING. I cannot wait until he finds out Starr is pregnant!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cat Posted May 9, 2008 Members Share Posted May 9, 2008 Thank you, SON, for clueing me in on OLTL. I started taping last Friday and I haven't regretted my decision once. P.s.: Co-sign on the JPL striptease. That was Office-worthy comedy right there. And Trevor St. John is playing so many emotions with a flick of his eye or hiss in his voice... amazing. By the way, I really like the Snoop OLTL song. It's the opening shots that look cheap-ass and badly produced. They need to sharpen those up and speed up/slow down their pace in time to the song's rhthym. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MichaelGL Posted May 9, 2008 Members Share Posted May 9, 2008 Gawd it's a pleasure to watch OLTL these days. I UBER loved OLTL yesterday. The opening was nice, and yesterday's episode had SO MUCH in it, I couldn't believe they had fit all that in a hour. From the previews Snoop knows Bo? LMAO!!!

Members Cat Posted May 9, 2008 Members Share Posted May 9, 2008 Oh, and P.S.: Guiding Light. Check out OLTL's exterior shots over the past five shows. THAT is how you incorporate exterior shooting into your show and make it look like Primetime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
