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

    • Agreed that Phillip most definately needed to stay on the canvas if GA was going to play him. Too much history going back to the Dobson's there. Also, they were not hamstrung on Phillip/Beth the way they were on Jeva, so the characters had room to move on to others logically and stay in each others orbits...(I am not saying what they chose to do with Beth in Ruachieville was good but..) I think Reva should have been brought back to cause trouble for Josh and Annie, go through angst, get together with Josh and leave town together. There was no where else to go with them after that (post Annie is when all the crap started to give them story..artificially there story was done..) But Zimmer had been in Hollywood were a Khan said about O'leary..."Realized they couldnt get arrested" lol and was bound and determined to keep going (not that I blame her, a check is a check) and the Jeva nuts (prompted by Zimmer and Newman also0 would scream if they were off screen for 5 minutes.  The only possible story for Reva was for Josh to be killed or for him to finally have enough of her and leave town. I thought Reva was most interesting during that weird post RN period when she broke up with Kyle and was living with Cane...she had jobs, she was involved with a lot of different people and was not always the center of the story.
    • I think Ms. Rowell should be one of Anita's former bandmates... maybe the one that still harbors resentment over being abandoned. I think the Articulettes probably started out more like The Supremes.. and probably when the other bandmates wanted to go in a more funk/synth pop direction (as what happened to groups in the late 70s/early 80s)... I could have seen Anita bail and forge a solo career since perhaps that genre was not to her liking... and the group disbanded. Wasn't Ms. Morgan also doing another project when the show was casting?  Maybe one day she'll join the show when a role opens up and her schedule is open.     I don't mind the set, but is it a hip place.. or a more upscale after work/weekend night spot.   I'm not sure what vibe it's trying to go for. Orphey Jean's is my favorite... it's a great gathering/neutral meeting place where people of high incomes, middle incomes, and working class can all gather and hang out.
    • Oh, see, I love it; it feels very east coast, and I've been in places like it before. It's unique. And ugh, anyone but Victoria Rowell. Please, anyone but her.
    • It's not going to change, as said plenty of times.

      Without a proper person to come in and not be afraid of pissing audiences off, it isn't going to happen. Okay, no, per Zach Tinker there seems to be no investment, not needed, and HELL NO!
    • God forbid someone is upset with their spouse for not being honest with them.   I swear... Misandry is so rampant nowadays.

    • Kate Mansi on Kristina going too far No spoilers - but only if you've watched through May 14. If you want to be unspoiled, wait until after you've watched May 14. https://www.soapoperadigest.com/content/ghs-kate-mansi-says-kristina-knows-that-shes-gone-too-far-exclusive/
    • Well, Mo should have tried harder lol GH has had the narrative for years that Sonny is "good" mob and everyone else is "bad" mob.  It's never made any sense no matter how many characters tell us that.  How about no mob?  That's the best kind of mob 
    • She absolutely needs to be on this show.
    • they need to bring her back for a role! I say expand Bill's family and have her play his meddling aunt that moves into his house with he and Hayley and goes head to head with Anita
