It is demoralizing when one has become older than a headwriter. What a sign of generational succession...

But I watched OLTL tonight, and though it is broad (Tess and her acts of malfeasance are over the top...though the Asa appearance was just chillingly great) it was still total fun from end to end. There is room for (paraphrasing Sylph) good "trash" like this. Total entertainment!

I hear you there! Older than headwriters, older than some of my doctors, older than the teacher of one of my post-grad classes, older than my damn BOSS!!!

I need to kick my daughter out of the family room so I can catch up on this week!!

AMEN! Please let all this Mendora nonsense end as quickly as possible. I have to wonder what Andrea Evans thinks of the way they have handled her return-- she's been stuck in an awful storyline with a bunch of actors she never even met before (except maybe Thom? Was he on the show before AE left?)

I believe Karen Witter's Tina interacted with Carlo.

I hope Tina returns to Llanview quickly because I NEED to see her with Erika Slezak!!!!!!!!!

In interesting news, Andrea Evans received an "actor bio" on the ABC Medianet website under OLTL. No Susan Haskell yet.

Ron Carlavati = James E. Reilly wannnabe!

I've have no respect for that man. He's not a journalist, he's just a whiny little bitch who's got a couple of connections and a blog.

Boy, do I ever agree with that!!! I've had my disagreements with him, and he cannot handle anyone disagreeing with him.

I loved Friday Cliffhanger day!!

Viki & Dorian's argument was all kinds of awesome. I basically got all of their past rivalry in those car scenes. Despite the hatred the two have for one another when Viki died, Dorian was teary eyed!

I loved the Charlie/Brody AA scenes. Charlie was putting all the pieces together but will he spill the beans? I also got some insight into Brody. Although I do like Rex and Gigi as a couple, Rex is married and until he figures out who he wants I really would like for Gigi to give Brody a fair chance once he is all cleaned up.
