Maybe so....but at least OLTL is using so many older and verteran cast members. Tina, Carlo, Cain, Nora, Viki, Dorian, Bo, and others either have been or will be seeing quite a bit of airtime. In these days of "the younger the better" it's refreshing to see so many actors being prominently featured that are over 40.

Carlo's back? Meh, lol.

I don't look at whether Cole and Starr could support their expectant child financially; as far as that goes, alot of teenage moms and dads out there (IRL) should be so fortunate, lol. I'm more concerned, therefore, with how these two will raise the child emotionally. Cole and Starr are still in high school, right? And, I would assume, both have it in mind to continue their studies next fall (or whenever) in college. I'm no statistician, but I suspect there are at least as many teenage parents in the "real world" who can't juggle parenting with college successfully as there are those who can. To me, the balance between pursuing an education and being present in all aspects of a newborn's life, regardless of income, must be a hard one to strike. Are Cole and Starr really up for that challenge?

I knew Cain was the prince! I wonder what the scam is and how he was able to pull this off. LOVING the Tina story at the moment

Ugh Nora! Once again ruining Bo and Lindsay's wedding. BITCH needs to get a life already and move on.

First off I have to say, I don't remember Christopher Cousins being THAT good-looking. But DAYUM!!! :P

Why can't Bo and Lindsay FINALLY get married? I really would much rather watch them get married, and then Bo finds out a little bit at a time that Lindsay is a murderer, twice over. I wanted someone to push Nora out of the room and slam the doors.

Can't wait to see more of Carlo. Just his voice alone gives me goosebumps.

Nora never has to get over hating a woman who nearly singlehandedly destroyed her marriage to Bo (with Nora's help, admittedly - but the fertility results which made Nora turn to Sam to give Bo a child would never have been an issue if not for Lindsey) and was the major factor in keeping Bo from his son for the early years of his life. She never has to get over Bo dating a woman who kept her prisoner while her back was broken for months on end and used a life-threatening drug to wipe out the memories of years of her life, including her son's existence...all because Lindsey thought Nora was better off dead.

I like Lindsey. I like many things about her, I think she has decency in her. I think she and Bo are horrible together, however, I think Bo would never rationally be with her again, and the one thing I almost never, ever do is side with Lindsey over Nora. Because more than anyone else, ever, Nora has every right in the universe to despise Lindsey Rappaport.

Lindsay was not the reason why Bo was kept from Matthew in the early years of his life. She tried to change the DNA results on him but changed her mind at the last minute. She didnt know if they technician went through with that. She eventually confessed that to Bo and another DNA test was done that she was not involved in. We only found out years later after Sam's death that there was a lab mixup that only he knew about via a letter that he kept secret.

Nora doesnt have to stop hating Lindsay but she should move on. Its been 10 years since that stuff started and she is STILL bringing it up and using it motive to go after Lindsay and make jabs at Bo. Do we see Lindsay dwell on Nora? No. We know she hates her but she's moved on. Nora is OBSESSED with Lindsay. Her life isnt complete without Lindsay. I dont know what happened bc Nora wasnt like this before but she's constantly harassing Lindsay, in her business, on her case, throwing petty comments, making it an issue to attack and go after her.

Lindsay has changed. She isnt the same nasty manipulator who goes around causing pain, acting petty and jealous and out to destroy lives. She's grown up and done well with herself and her life. And this isnt something that just started as she's been different for years, mainly after Jen's death. Thats why Bo is with her bc he sees that. Her biggest crime here is that she didnt trust Bo enough to tell him that she faked her insanity. But you know what? Thats Bo's issue to deal with. Had that been anyone else, Nora would have let it go. She was doing her best to go easy on Marty, when it looked like she killed Spencer, but she was jumping at the oppurtunity to go for blood when Lindsay was revealed as the killer. She and Lindsay resolved their issues to a certian degree years ago and this feud has kicked up again bc of Nora. She wont let go of the past and just live her life. She has a good man and Lindsay isnt a factor in her relationship. She's not a threat and she's not going after Nora. Nora should just leave her alone and stop trying to cause drama where there isnt any

I marvelled at the sheer size of the new sets today. That Mendorran Royal Palace is HUGE, and so is the dungeon. With all the high priced vets and returns, where does OLTL get the money for these sets? Todd's new place is also huge.

    • I'm not sure I agree with Bernstein's children on that. Bernstein's life and activism here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leonard_Bernstein#Social_activism_and_humanitarian_efforts
    • Thursday & Friday's episodes were excellent. The build-up was most definitely worth the wait (2 months). TMG, I can't give her enough accolades. AM, was also absolutely incredible. I think the fallout is going to have a ripple effect. The little clues that have been dropped,  hopefully, will weave seamlessly to reveal even bigger bombshells for the Dupree's and Martin.
    • Thanks, msn drives me nuts on the one hand but on the other hand their headlines appeal to me. And, I just don't do FoxNews.   
    • The link doesn't work.  The actual link is this: https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/composer-leonard-bernstein-s-children-request-his-music-be-played-in-the-kennedy-center-in-rebuke-to-trump/ar-AA1E7gw5 That's a reprint of a FoxNews article. MSN reprints stuff from many sources. You can tell the source from the logo above the headline on the msn page. The FoxNews article is describing what Leonard Bernstein's children wrote -- as a "letter to the editor" of the New York Times. Instead of reading it filtered through FoxNews, here is the original: "Our Dad, Leonard Bernstein, Would Want His Music Played at the Kennedy Center" https://www.nytimes.com/2025/05/02/opinion/kennedy-center-leonard-bernstein-protest.html Non-paywall archived copy of the same NYTimes letter, without commentary: https://archive.is/QaLqD
    • Might be a long shot, because I can't find a thing online about it, but I was Googling the actress that played Nell Cleary (Frank's cop friend that went through academy and then became cops together during the entire Brent Lawrence storyline). To my surprise, she passed away in 2011, at the very young age of 45. I can't find her obituary or anything online about her passing, but I'm curious, does anyone know what happened? Her IMDB only shows a few other acting gigs post-Guiding Light, so she didn't make a career out of it, but I thought she was a great actress in her role as Cleary. Her name was Mary Peterson.
    • What was Ruth Martin's association to the Thornton family?  I only remember the daughter that dated Tad, and she had a buxom mother.  But, did Ruth date David Thorton before Joe?

      Why didn't Steve respect Monica and Jeff's decision?  I get he's Jeff's father, and that's how it came out, but I don't like the ethics of the story. A stranger gets to make life or death decisions over a wife's demands?   I hope Monica secretly never forgave Steve's chauvinism.
    • Question: Jon-Michael Reed's review of 1977 is up in the retro soap section.  It includes a fleeting reference to comedic scenes between Jeanne Cooper and Julianna McCarthy regarding “Kay's would-be beau, Ralph the Plumber”.  Could someone please fill me in will more details? I forgot that Kay and Liz were friendly before Jill stole Kay's husband.  And the thought of Liz playing a comedic scene blows my mind, because I only recall her being dour both in demeanor and wardrobe.  
    • I said this on Twitter on Friday when Leslie mentioned Chicago, so perhaps she might be related to one of Anita's bandmates. In addition, Leslie did say she grew up listening to The Articulettes too.
    • There was a scene in the past week or two with Leslie looking at some papers and mementos, which included an invitation or souvenir from Alan's memorial service or funeral -- it was dated as November 2024. Me just guessing but it seems to me that Martin's nightmares about the accident are from something longer ago than November.
