OLTL: Discussion for the week June 9-13


Recommended Posts

  • Members

I'm not sure what the rules are about starting threads outside the weekly discussion these days, so please correct me if I am in error.

However, I am so excited about these returns, and I don't want to clutter up the weekly OLTL thread by going off topic.

I haven't read spoilers, so please don't ruin anything in this thread.

I understand both actresses are returning on Wednesday. I wonder which one of them will get the ending scene.

I am so frickin' excited about Andrea Evans that I might start hyperventilating before Wednesday.

Some things I am excited about ~

~ the on-screen reunion of Andrea Evans and Erika Slezak as sisters Tina and Viki

~ seeing how Tina effects Sarah

~ seeing if Andrea and Kassie DePaiva click and if Tina and Blair go back to their bitchy rivalry

~ seeing what kind of wardrobe Tina has these days

~ seeing if they play up bitchy Tina, or the more vampy/comedic side of the character

~ about a million other things

Discussing Tina and Marty isn't going off-topic. So, I changed the thread to a weekly thread. I don't want to have two threads discussing their returns.

As long as nobody posts storyline spoilers, it should be fine. Heck, I don't even want to see stuff from "On the next episode of One Life To Live....." LOL So please use spoiler tags if you really want to discuss the previews. I don't want to see "teasers" either - spoiler tag those, please.

THIS IS A SPOILER FREE ZONE!! OLTL is too good to be spoiled right now. :)

I wish I could go spoiler free, but I am just to damn nosey. LOL.

I am SOOOO excited to see Andrea and Erika back in scenes together, I do believe I am the most excited about that alone.

It's sad that you can't wait for the weekend to end so that you can watch the One Life. :P

Like you, Zendallfan, I was thinking we should go daily too, but with all the buzz and board response this show has had, and not everyone caught up to the same place, I can see how different days would be active simultaneously. I guess the concern is we could conceiveably have 4 or even 5 active OLTL threads taking up space on page 1 of DTS, thus edging out premium space for other shows.

I'll add my vote to weekly. IT was particularly appropriate for the past week, since so much built on the previous day. Yeah, it took me an hour to go through everything, because SOMEONE kept insisting on posting and adding more JUST WHEN I thought I was caught up! :lol:

But, it makes for terrific weekend reading. And avoiding things like watering, doing lesson plans for summer school................

You bring up alot of interesting points. I wonder how they will even introduce Tina bc Ive hated how she's been handled since she last left. Malone had her missing during his run and Ron C recently picked up on that. There better be a damn good explanation for where she's been the last 5 years and why she's stayed away from her daughter.

I think Tina and Blair will go back to being enemies. Blair badmouthed Tina when Sarah came on and she seems to not care much for her. I dont mind it bc I liked their feud. It would be interesting to see Tina and Todd closer being that they are the black sheeps of the family. I definetly looking forward to see her with him as well as Viki

    • Spoke with my contacts at Lifetime. As of now, there is nothing to share in terms of updates. 
    • Which is still a form of manipulation. Granted it won't work because Ted isn't interested in Leslie at all no matter how much she tries to make him look like a horrible person. When you consider the situation with Hayley it does make sense why Anita would take that approach.
    • Another good one and great episode to start off the week. Confrontations, character moments, movement, and an awful lot of bubbles on display. lol.    I've found myself liking Sara Bibel breakdowns. And this episode might be why. I sense movement of plot going on. And Jazmen being on script duty has already become a highlight for me. So this episode dealing with more fallout from the SilkPress/Eva reveal was another good one. And even got a solid B plot moving in the Vanessa/Doug/Joey storyline...which I just said yesterday...has been the only one of the B plots...that has real build to it so far.    You are not a real soap pariah until you get dragged and a community treats you as such. So basically another old school soap vibe that Eva is giving me. Watching her trying to find her footing only to be read by just about everyone she has encountered has been great. It makes her so rootable. And she's played by an excellent actress. Cuz that quivering lip at the end with her and Anita...ooooo some of you all seem heated for Anita making poor girl cry even though it's her fault. That's great acting. Not to mention writing.    I also love that the side character got their point of view. I loved Mona moving about town trying to get info to avenge Nicole in a way. And she dragged Eva. She read Silk Press Sheila. And that 'enjoy the burn' was well-said. And did I see a spark with Mona and Randy? Hmmm. I don't mind.

          I also didn't mind that Martin/Kat scene. I enjoy their sibling relationship so far. And I feel like the right thing to do to keep them close as they support their mother. It even made sense that Martin would soften to the idea of Eva as part of the family given their brief scene at the start of this storyline. Meanwhile, NO from Kat. lol. And she's already questioning the DNA test...OF COURSE SHE IS. But again...that avail...her and Eva being the SAME age. Twins. I just felt the writers are really foreshadowing that heavy. Meanwhile, the SilkPress saga is far from over.   I love the parade of Ted Visitors. LMAO!!! I thought Dani vs Ted was pretty good. But I about fell out when Anita walked up in there like old school Sonny Corinthos. And I hollered with Anita wiping the floor with Ted with Dani in the background like Jason Morgan. Watch your step, Theodore. Anita was giving Boss Bitca and I was living.    That said...I didn't like Anita making poor Eva cry. But as was said above...the stuff with Hayley is still too fresh on the Duprees' mind. So sadly understandable, Anita set down the law.    Uh oh. Dani saw Vanessa with Joey. Granted they are not the BFFs, but I do hope that that means we are getting a Dani/Vanessa scene. And I loved that we got another step in the B storyline. Doug fighting (and failing) in his addiction. Meanwhile, Vanessa resisted hers. And Joey did not look happy.    And saying the best for last. I LOVE Nicole vs Silk Press Sheila. Ooooo Nicole got under her skin good. And I loved it. I also hollered at Silk Press couldn't even be fake nice for 5 whole minutes to her. DD did soooooooo good. The body language. The looks. The inflections on just the right words. I LOOOVVVE that confrontation and looking forward to more since she clearly verbally cracked SilkPress's face. Meanwhile, I was just as taken aback at Ted showing up at Silk Press Sheila's place. I also thought it was another fantasy. Nope. And then SilkPress put the moves on him and went just a little more cray cray in the coda.    Just such a great episode.

    • Nope still in development. ABC/Disney are having their upfronts today though, so there's a very slight hope we might get an update.
    • Has anyone ever posted January and February 1974? I can't find them in the 'Look Back to 75' thread. Thanks.
    • Did January and February 1974 DSN ever get posted? I can't seem to find it in this thread.
    • I agree. Especially after SilkPress got back to her apartment and started to mock Nicole. Her dislike for Nicole and seeing her as a threat to her getting Teddy Bear is growing worse. So I could see her pulling a kidnapping on Nicole at some point. If anything she was going there to poke the bear and got pressed (pun unintended) when the bear gathered her.   Completely understandable.

    • I swear this entire time I thought Roman knew about the Phillip/Vivian letter lol.  I do like how mature Roman/Kate are as a couple.  It makes me sad the new writers never got a chance to write for John/Marlena. I agree with @AbcNbc247 that the Felicity stuff is a bit after school special-y.  I am pretty sure that (most) of the viewing audience is aware that a grown man should not be shouting at any teenage girl especially one with disabilities.  Just let Xander apologize and move on. Linsey Godfrey was in her Sarah baby voice mode today and it irritates me to no end.   I know it's a cutesy thing her and Xander do but it's annoying. Bringing Kevin back is strange, but I do like the use of history.  I do think Rex probably could have been used instead, but whatever.  I don't care about Rex much either lol.
