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

       about it I think Jan is a fine supporting part for a solid daytime vet (probably someone from the P&G soaps), as opposed to someone from the production location who is clearly cheaper. Which seems to govern some casting. I get the rationale, but I would start going through the ATWT/GL, etc. rolodex myself.
    • I dont mind Jan. She's good in the minor capacity she is used. 
    • tbqh I don't care about Jan, I don't care about Ashley and I think Jon Lindstrom as Joey is an acquired taste. Jon is a great actor but certain things are in his zone and then some are not. Some days I find Joey credible and compelling, but the stuff with him hanging around the Golden Corral, grumbling about Doug and bitching at Randy is not amazing. If he had material on par with what MVJ wrote for Ryan/Kevin on GH back in the day it'd be a different story. I do think he has real chemistry with Vanessa, which is in large part due to MVJ clearly molding that character (and hiring an appropriate actor) in the Lucy Coe vein when she reinvented Lucy in the '90s as well. But I am not here to spend 6+ months watching Jon glower a lot (which is what he's doing half the time to carry weak story) and make more vague dire pronouncements while Jen Jacob gets flustered and weepy over "Daddy" or whatever would come of that storyline. Putting them together sounds like a recipe for doom to me. But I may be in the minority on that.
    • I know this will never happen. But... Halle Berry as Dani Dupree(BTG). She would rock this role, it's in her wheelhouse.
    • When I see how bad the Ashley/Derek scenes are, I know there must be a larger purpose and Joey being her father is the thing that makes the most sense.  My take on it is that Ashley knows Joey is her father but doesn't know Joey. Maybe he was there when she was a child or just not around at all but I believe Jan when she says she didn't lie to her daughter about who her father was. Maybe she left him when she discovered his dangerous lifestyle.  I do think they could really jump start the character of Ashley if they hurry and do this. Jan is a great character and her scenes with Ashley have been helpful. This would further integrate Ashley into the canvas and give her something dramatic to do. With her working at the hospital along with Doug, it could lead to complications if she learns Doug is involved with her father. I just need is sooner rather than later because Derek is tanking her character. I need a distraction.
