OLTL: Discussion for the week May 12-16


Recommended Posts

I just love OLTL these days!!! I started watching again after several years and Asa's funeral was my first official episode back. I guess this says a lot... lol

I was horrifed with the show's dramatic change during the strike. I felt I was watching a very bad episode of mid-eighties Search For Tomorrow. Boring. No Feeling. No Community. No Surprise. No meaning.

And then RC came back... And so did we! Please, don't ever scare us like that... This is the best soap opera I've seen in ages! (ATWT is the second best show right now, but that's another story)

How cuter can Rex get? I love Gigi, her friendship with Viki, Viki's relationship with Charlie, Charlie with Jared and Rex... I could go on forever. I adore Todd Manning, his relationship with Blair, her relationship with the Cramer girls. When I watch OLTL I am not only interested in the story, but in the general feeling of the show as well..

Only one thing: please this wonderful show the opening it deserves. There is no reason for OLTL to have the same opening with GH and AMC.

I was disagreeing with Ryan, so I was being polite.

Why? You've got a problem with apologies, Sylph? :P

(KIDDING! KIDDING! I know how these things start.)

So I was letting Ryan know there were no hard feelings since we had a difference of opinion. I don't know. Just being nice. LEAVE ME ALONE!!! :D

Love Addie, was worried she'd been forgotten but I guess it was just Ron's absence.

My only real gripe right now? I still HATE the titles. Yes I'm sure the writers have fun with it, sure it's cute, sure it makes NO big difference and I shoudlnt' complain but... I dunno having these LAME "pun" titles for every episode are almost insulting to me. A serious daytime drama havign a title of "Uncle-cest is best"?? At best I just ask why, at worse I have to wonder why my grandma is now wondering why incest is best is an expression she should know...

I would go back even further. The last time the majority of DAYS (here at SON) was positive was during Brash/Cwikly's tenure. They had the trifecta going with (1) happy fans, (2) good ratings, (3) critical success......yet they were demoted for Dena freakin Higley. :blink:

Anyway, back to OLTL! LOL

It sure was, but I liked it.

Yeah, her scenes with Addie were my favorites from today's ep. After seeing her as just a bitch for these past couple of months, it was really nice to see this different side her. It was a just a simple scene with her sitting down with her aunt, eating ice cream, and talking about her feelings.

Now that David has seen Nat and Jared, I wonder if he will talk about how he pretended to be the Lord heir, and fell for his "sister" Tina, since pretty much that story is repeating itself here with Nat and Jared. It would be a nice nod to history and with Tina coming back, it should make for some interesting scenes

Did they deSORAS Bree? I swear before she was a toddler, like 3 years old, but the girl that was on today looked significantly younger

    • I love you He’s definitely not for me. He comes across very meek. Trisha is going to eat this man alive in scenes.  Excellent scenes! Her damn nicknames be tearing me the hell up
    • Stephanie also was raped in college and killed her rapist along with the help of Chelsea.  It was an accident, but that's something the show has only touched on once or twice since AK took over the role. Very good point!
    • Robinson is less imposing than Johnson was and that makes the character seem completely different. If anything he came off as someone who could have played Doug. 
    • Exactly. That's a fertile ground, where a lot of drama could be mined from. That's a great idea. Especially since her kidnapping was a part of the Dimera/Kiriakis war at the time. Not could it cause conflict between Stephanie and Alex/the Kiriakises, it could also be tied to both families trying to buy the hospital, and how that would make the hospital look, since these villainous families both want to own it.
    • Hmmmmmmm... I'll have to go back and check

    • @j swift @carolineg I was looking at some scenes on YT of Shelley's take on Stephanie.. and her 2007/2008 take on Stephanie was very spirited, bold, and confident.   I often think her ordeal in 2009 when she was kidnapped and kept in the morgue by that creepy guy probably did change her.. but I don't recall the show ever focusing on the after effects of such a traumatic event. In fact... her novel/manuscript should have been loosely based on that trauma in a fictionized account.  Maybe the rest of the manuscript will involve some of that.. but I doubt Ron C would ever think to include that event in a constructive way to explain the current behaviors/motivations of Stephanie.
    • All recast reasons aside I wouldn’t want to think about those first few years when Steffy and Bill were manipulating everything behind the scenes and the back and forth with Wyatt if I were Hope myself.

    • I'm always down for more Gio, and he did look good today. But let's not pass on the chance to appreciate Chase in those jeans. I mean, come on. That was some nice booty poppin' right there. Maddening. I'd dislike hearing any character being this ridiculous and overbearing, but I really hate it when it's a character I love, as I do Dante.
    • My dude thinks he's living in the year 2011 with that hat he's wearing

    • Lol, I enjoy classical music and I really think Gio is a talented musician.  I just don't know if it's the soundstage they are filming it on or what, but it sounds so screechy on TV.  I don't recall all his performances sounding like that. Rocco-"this was all my fault not Gio's or even Danny's.  No one made me drink.  I am being accountable". Dante-"Nope still 100% GIO's FAULT!!!" Just shut it Dante! Alexis and Lucky deserve more than having to protect Kristina's crazy butt. I like Cody and Lulu teaming up.  Finally someone is agreeing with Lulu.
