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

    • What did you all think of Hogan/Patti compared to the stuff with Liza and Sonny? Did you buy anything about Sonny and Bela? Has a recast ever decentralized a character as much as Sherry's exit did with Liza? Or do you think that would have happened even if Sherry had stayed?
    •     I think the three comments pretty much summarize my thoughts. The green is not pleasant. I think I know where they were going with it, but it doesn't translate on screen.  The bar at Uptown is actually pretty good. It's my favorite part. I totally get it having an East Coast vibe. I used to frequent a place like it and while I wouldn't necessarily call it pretty...it was a bit Kitsch but it had a vibe. This place is lacking the vibe. I know it's not easy to hire extras, but even having a karaoke night in the background or live music would change the whole feel.  Vernon and Anita having breakfast there was a great idea. Another place besides the country club where they could talk. However, why were they using country club china at an establishment like Uptown. It just seems a bit confused. I don't understand what it's supposed to be. 
    • Add me to the list of people who like Tanisha Harper as Jordan I never understood any of the criticism of her, to be honest. She's gorgeous and she's solid in her role. Sounds like a soap staple to me.  
    • Thanks for the walk down Memory Lane!   (Can you imagine what the synopsis for 2024/2025 will look like 50 years from now?  It'll basically just be a flowchart of who was the CEO of which unseen corporation, lol.)  
    • Yes . Its time to get these folks outta their clothes lol.
    • To all the fans of Paul and Lauren on The Young and the Restless:

    • Leslie is extra but she's told the truth about what happened back then. They were in love, at least he led her to beleive they were. I never go the impression that she was crazy or a hot mess when they were involved. From the bits that we've heard, it seems more like she got bitter and jaded over the years but when they had their affair? She was all good   Ted shouldnt stress getting Eva anything. Like he just go her an apartment, no to mention a job. I think his continued attention and presence in her life mean more than material things he could buy   June definitely knows those kids. She was lying bc she doesnt want to answer what happened to said kids
    • It's very smart, even if I don't love the choice of content creators. And it's hilarious Daphnée keeps doing lives on Instagram, when she's admitted she isn't the best of them.
    • Tomlin's first stint was from May 1983 to March 1984 (11 months) when he left to become co head of AW. He lasts about six months the second time. But he' paired with John Whitesell this time and the show was a wreck after Mayer/Braxton's 6 months.
