I hope so too.

And maybe if say somehow OLTL is able to go up to #2 in HH and #1 or #2 in demos, and consistently stay there, other soaps will notice and force changes (they go out and get their own version of Carlivati)? I think that's about the only way we can get rid of Guza, Passanante, Higley. :(

Noe everyone who hates OLTL is just a jealous hater.

some people do actually think the show all around sucks.

I'm not one of them, but I'm just saying they are out there. and yes a lot of them prob do hate on it just because of the love its getting. however not everyone should be labeled and judged on that.

Waiting for the tar and feather, but I can also agree with some of the non-liking frustrastion of the show..there's still a lack of balence going on for me.

I do heart Dorian and Langston, I'm glad Ron gave me that back--I just can't help but feel that Ron's still trying to find the balence, like we get what we get now but sacrifice others...

I doubt she will. I am so on the fence with this whole Rex/Adriana/Gigi/Brody stuff. I watch, but it is nothing that I am really excited about. I do enjoy "bitchy bangs" Adriana a bit more. However, there are too many times she comes of as insecure and I just don't feel like that would be Dorian's daughter.

I actually like Shaun, but not as much when he is acting like a bodyguard. He's more fun as a fixture in the Cramer household - now the only adult male. I'm surprised Addie hasn't made a play for him.

Yesterday was a good, solid show. The Rex/ Adrianna scenes stood out as a real breakup for me. Rex, especially, the fabric of his recent reality in shreds and now facing the end of his own self-delusion.

As others have said, Starr was surprisingly good. I was all set to pick KA apart but she did well.

Langston and Dorian? Good scenes but no surprise there. Same with Viki and Jess.

Loved the ))))))))SLAP!(((((((( all the more since it was anticipated last week.

I guess to me to comes out that Dorian is the woman scorned trying to get revenge. The whole "Don't get back, get EVERYTHING." I totally see what you are saying though about her being insecure too. To me what Adriana was doing was trying to keep Rex because she was worried about losing him to Gigi. I feel like Dorian is more vengeful to those she feel has wronged her and Adriana is trying to hold on what is hers. Instead of having faith in Rex, she needed to get rid of the competition to keep what is hers.

Throughout her relationship with Clint, Dorian was insecure, I think. And if she wasn't, she wouldn't care enough to take over this company, what with all the plotting and money spent. She would've moved on long ago.

I don't think the breakup was good enough. Rex's reasoning seemed a bit off, like he wasn't being 100% truthful with her. either that, or the script just seemed lacking. And I'm still pissed that Rex broke up with her. It's marriage. This is a big mistake but it's nothing compared to what they've been through. I suppose the s/l was mainly dictated by Melissa wanted to leave OLTL. I hope she gets a spot on Ugly Betty LOL.

The thing about Dorian's insecurity... it's aged and more about pride. Where Adrianna is still clinging to Rex, Dorian's been there and found what she thinks are the face saving tactics of getting even - as with Clint - or outright rejection of a possible good thing - David.

      Carly is 100% part of way too many stories.  We are all pretending like Laura Wright is bringing something new to the table as Carly.  Laura Wright is serviceable and has great hair, but she's not Sarah Brown or anything.  She's fine and I like her but she's not doing anything special as Carly.  She's just floating around currently.

      I would submit to you that she doesn't need any more excuses, not when it comes to Bill. But, I am one fan who thinks Bill isn't done with Dani & also the reverse is so. Those two, IMO, are locked in some kind of toxic but  irresistible vortex. I'm not saying we're going to have scifi. Just the personality kind of vortex. OH!!! Thanks. I don't do Y&R. But I totally understand anger even frustration with Josh.

      a reference to a mystery character on Y&R named "Aristotle Dumas" who has been discussed a zillion times in the past few months but never seen.  Not mad at the character.  Mad at Y&R writer Griffith for the annoyance. Mentioned to point out the annoyances of Y&R in contrast to enthusiasm for BTG.

      It also seemed like she wanted an excuse to go over Bill's and yell at him.

      The number 1 rated soap, and no one seems to like it. I don’t remember the last episode I watched. The Damian story was the only thing keeping me watching but I just gave up on the show altogether again.

      Not all friends are alike though and there should be a counterbalance in some friendships on soaps. Dani has already been all over the place enough and doesn't need an unstable friend.

      I was finally warming up to Eva but today, that girl, what in the world was she thinking, crawling back to Mama saying she was under a lot of pressure. Pitiful. And, just what did she get for her trouble? Rebuffed, totally. Anastasia, she can go kick rocks. Who needs her & what was she wearing? I'm surprised to learn that some people did not have an appreciation of Dani & then Anita, right after, at Theodore's. I thought they were both right on the money & also sharp, witty.  Ted, of course, is playing at being Impervious Man, which is very funny & he takes it one step further, making all these declarations of his intent to woo Nicole back & win her trust again. I find myself laughing so hard at him & at how he has totally misread his circumstances. He has zero chance but wow he has so much confidence. This I find to be so humorous, possibly unintentionally so.  Edit to add: What does Alexander Dumas have to do with anything? And why are people seeming to be mad at him?
