Members Ponds Posted June 6, 2008 Members Share Posted June 6, 2008 I watched it on my east coast channel this morning and I'm now rewatching it on west coast...don't think I've ever watched a soap twice in one day. This is some great stuff! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted June 6, 2008 Members Share Posted June 6, 2008 Does anyone else want Adrianna to inherit that Cramer woman mental madness illness the women in Dorian's family suffer from? I would've loved to watch her slowly go insane over her attempts to keep Rex and hide all of her lies. She should be Landview's young Annie Dutton. Alas, she's gone next week, right? Damn.

Members 2shane8 Posted June 6, 2008 Members Share Posted June 6, 2008 O.K., this show has been off the hook in the best possible way all week long. May sweeps seemed to have become June sweeps, as the greatness continued and became even greater. I think that Jessica's smackdown of Natalie was one of the most satisfactory things I have ever viewed in daytime. I just WORSHIP whoever decided to play the angle of having an enraged Jessica accuse Natalie of basically screwing over the family and indirectly killing Nash all for the sake of Jared's cock! This was brilliant, and the line "all because you were desperate to get layed" is like THE BEST THING EVER. And that slap was out-of-control! Also loved when Jess grabed Natalie and dragged her out of the room, and then the slamming door. Because this is a soap, and it's fun to find shades of gray and to feel for characters you don't like, I have to say ............................. when Natalie said to Viki, "Please don't let her make you hate me too," I got choked up and did feel for her. Not because I think Jessica should forgive her, but because I could feel Nat's fear that her mother would turn on her, and I also thought it was true to character that Natalie would feel Jessica, the golden daughter, would have the power to turn Viki against her. The next fabulous thing about this show is that it's rare that a soap can pull off two powerhouse confrontations in one day, but the Adriana-Dorian thing, although a little less INTENSE than Jessica-Natalie, was absolutely satisfactory and brilliantly-executed. Melissa Gallo actually rocked (and this is something I never say, LOL), and Robin Strasser has been divine all week. When you think back to Dorian's takeover of B. E. on Tuesday, it seems so long ago! That's how much action has been packed into this magnificent week! Oh, one more fine point with regards to the stunning writing on O.L.T.L. of late. I love how Ron et. al really KNOW the characters. Case in point: Adriana pointed out that Cassie and Kelly have gotten far away from Dorian, that Langston will do the same in the future, and that she (Adriana) is doing so now. She could have simply said "all your girls," but the writers were smart enough to have her leave out Blair, because I think we all know that Blair is ultimately the most loyal to Dorian and would probably be the last to dessert her. FIVE STARS for this week. Performer of the week: Bree Williamson, with Robin Strasser nipping at her heels ... maybe I should call it a tie. Can't wait for Viki and Charlie next week! Plus, Jared and Renee! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members detroitpiston Posted June 6, 2008 Members Share Posted June 6, 2008 She's the adult Jessica/Tess, but Erin will always be the definitive Jessica IMO. The one who was Cristian's first love and and Clint and Vicki little girl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members RoseVioletDaisy Posted June 6, 2008 Members Share Posted June 6, 2008 I'm just getting back into the show and have to ask, are we supposed to hate Natalie? Because I hate her with the fire of a thousand white-hot suns. Or is there more to her that I haven't seen the last couple of weeks? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Y&RWorldTurner Posted June 6, 2008 Members Share Posted June 6, 2008 I agree, I like Bree and all, but Erin's the Jessica I have the most attachment to. I felt like I grew up with her, because we're like the same age and I watched her when she started on the show to her final day. That's how it usually done in soaps from other countries, they let actors grow up with their characters, thus the audience has an attachment to them. I like that feeling. I wish Erin would return to soaps... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members detroitpiston Posted June 6, 2008 Members Share Posted June 6, 2008 I agree completly! And I wouldn't mind Erin coming to GH as a Courtney recast. Or maybe a recast Babe for AMC(Cause AB sucks!). Or, if MA ever left they could bring her on as a recast Natalie!(I know, only in my dreams!)

Members All My Shadows Posted June 6, 2008 Members Share Posted June 6, 2008 An awesome episode to end an incredible week. I, for one, was not one bit let down by anything! I feel so much for all of the characters...there's no one that I can truly say I hate right now. I just feel everything about everybody. Everybody else has pretty much summed up the show, but I'm gonna put in some things I noticed. Ohhh, how I wanted to see Langston and Dorian together at the end. Right before Todd's dumbass punched through the kitchen door, Langston left to "go check on Dorian." I would have loved to see her go in there, find Dorian all vulnerable, possibly weeping, and then just be there for her. I want Dorrie to have at least ONE person to give her some hugs when she needs them. Not that she deserves hugs, mind you, but one would definitely do her a world of good. I loved the way Dorian looked at Addie and said with such conviction, something like "I've ALWAYS wanted what's best for this family!" It felt to me like she was talking not just about the Cramers who are younger than her (Blair, Starr, Adriana, Kelly, River, Cassie, etc) but also about Addie and even Melinda. Dorian is the HBIC of this family and she sure as hell wasn't going to let all of them make her feel useless for putting the Cramer name on the map! Strasser sent chills through me when called out Adriana and told her that what she had sad was "a horrible, vicious lie." I don't even think those are the adjectives she used, but whatever she said, it pierced right through me. I think Todd called his goon "Jeeves." Doesn't he use that as a derogatory name for all types of hired help? Kudos to them for writing Jessica's pain realistically. Once Nash was in the hospital, I forgot all about the vineyard stuff, but today, when she told Viki about how she has to pack up everything at the vineyard and all that jazz, I realized exactly how painful this is all going to be for her. Not only does she have to watch her husband die and deal with all of that, but she also has to pretty much see his dream, this vineyard, something that was very much a part of him, just fade away. She's going to be a troubled person for a long time. Of course, if this was AMC, she would have found Jared in the middle of the night, had wild sex with him while taunting him ("Come on, have sex with the dead man's wife! You KNOW you want to, Jared!"), and then in the middle of it all, Nash's ghost would pop up on the edge of the bed, watching and giving Jared tips on just what to do to really turn Jessie on. That is Megan McTavish's idea of "mourning." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ryan Posted June 6, 2008 Members Share Posted June 6, 2008 I've hated Natalie since Cristian died. I was beginning to like her once she was with Jared.....but I'm a JessicaFF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
