Members chrishntr Posted July 16, 2008 Members Share Posted July 16, 2008 That's my belief. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members brimike Posted July 16, 2008 Members Share Posted July 16, 2008 Fair enough. I just don't think you'll get your wish. It's kind of hard to fix the Tess rewrite at this stage of the game. Not after the four years of story. I'm not sure how you WOULD do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members rhinohide Posted July 16, 2008 Members Share Posted July 16, 2008 That can be fixed IMO. And should be (although I never have minded that Natalie is the only true Buchanan/Lord heir -- and Sarah). The whole child molestation story behind Jess's DID is much tougher. I mean there was video taped evidence. It was all just too elaborate. There's Asa! The one I remember. Although he seldom was THAT tough on Bo, he alluded to Bo being too soft, too good many times. I wonder if there will be more. I guess that makes Asa the first return of the 40th Anniversary? Unless you include Marty and AE. I contend that today was great! And there was no Tina, no Marty. Proves my point. They're not needed. To what purpose? I mean they can get rid of Tess for a time -- but what does that do to Jessica? Any hope for me that they write them both off at some point.

Members MTSRocks Posted July 16, 2008 Members Share Posted July 16, 2008 The only thing worth watching today was Phil Carey and Robert S. Woods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members TC Posted July 16, 2008 Members Share Posted July 16, 2008 I don't know if it was the only thing worth watching, but it was brilliant. I appreciate that Bo is still having issues nearly a year later; in today's soap climate, an old character dies and is never mentioned again until Xmas. I've had many "in my head conversations" with my father since he died about ten years ago. I can totally relate to Bo's love/hate relationship with his father and how it affects him in times of crisis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cheap21 Posted July 16, 2008 Members Share Posted July 16, 2008 and CJ Viki got ruined in that story. Niki may have been the one to take Jessica to the bars, but Viki did NOTHING to protect her. She would notice that Jessica was off in the morning, and that something was wrong with her as she was quiet, reserved and not herself. She never investigated, and simply ignored all the signs even though she acknowledged that they were there. Knowing she did have a recurrent problem with Niki, was another red flag, yet she didnt try and help Jessica by finding out what was happening to her. That made her come across as a horrible mother and I felt for Tess in her anger against Viki for what was done to her as a child Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members brimike Posted July 16, 2008 Members Share Posted July 16, 2008 Yeah, that needs to be addressed. I'm MUCH more forgiving of soaps not dealing with kids' locations when they're O-C than most are...but with Sarah AND Tina AND they really need to throw a line in somewhere.

Members EricMontreal22 Posted July 16, 2008 Members Share Posted July 16, 2008 I admit I find Tess too cartoony too but a part of me is loving it--this whole 40th anniversary thing seems to be a tribute to late 80s Ruach era OLTL (which was right when Carlivati started working at the show isn't it??) so it's in keeping with that. I think OLTL is better as a social soap but I admit I'm enjoyin git a lot. And man--that's how you do a Friday cliffhangar!!! So many great ending moments--but wait... It's wedenesday... What about Danny Wolek (who I'd love to see joined to the canvas again with his dad Larry). he was the son of Larry Wolek, and Victor Lord's beloved frail daughter, Meredith.

Members Dr. Jay S.W. Posted July 16, 2008 Members Share Posted July 16, 2008 The 80's is when Ron was born. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members EricMontreal22 Posted July 16, 2008 Members Share Posted July 16, 2008 Weren't they going to bring CJ back in as a war vet in a Don't Ask Don't Tell story by Malone involving Paul Cramer before he was quickly re-written? Maybe they could now just use Brody in the story instead--the reason he drinks so much and doesn't care if he sleeps with Gigi is his upset and repressed feelings for his BF CJ back in the war Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members EricMontreal22 Posted July 16, 2008 Members Share Posted July 16, 2008 oh Well he was working by '98 at OLTL wasn't he? and I thought he already had a law degree by then--earlyt achiever. But yeah I guess I missed a decade--but he prob did watch heavily in the 80s He couldnt' have been born in the 80s tho... He's in his 20s? and has a law degree and had a practice briefly before joining OLTL (in 98 apparantly)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
