The Todd/Marty and John/Blair scenes have been stand-outs for me. And I've never been a McBain fan!

As for Todd/Marty, I don't know where all this is going but I cannot tear my eyes away from those scenes. SH and TSJ are riveting. Are they playing with sexual tension? Friendship? Malice? Is this all a big game on Todd's part or is trying to absolve himself in some way? So many questions, and OLTL are playing all the beats to this story.

I really want to love Viki/Charlie... REALLY want to. I don't hate them, I think they are sweet. I just don't adore them. Yet.

Addie/David/Dorian were compelling. What the heck does Tuc watkins have to do to get a contract on OLTL?

Actually, the 1888 story played out during February-May 1988. The story was originally scheduled to go from February thru March, but a writer's strike prolonged it for two more months! It was agony! It was also stupid - so many characters crossing timelines between 1888 and 1988. If the original vision of the story had been realized, I think it would have gone down as one of OLTL's great storylines. The beginning of it was breathtaking - the locations scenes, the actors playing dual roles, and the story itself were awesome! But it got diluted and stretched out beyond endurance.

If I remember correctly (and I may not since I was only 8 years old at the time), but Clint hit his head and imagined that he had gone back in time. But I can't remember how Viki ended up going back in time though.

"Real nice place.....window boxes, bingo, and everything...." :lol:

Olympia was Asa'a first wife, and mother to Bo and Clint. It was never revealed when they were married (the Buchanan's first came to Llanview in late 1979), but she died in 1981. While he was married to Olympia, Asa cheated on her with Pamela Stuart (he created the alias Jeb Stuart, and married her on the island of St. Blazes, with Pamela unaware of his double life). And he also had an affair with Emma Bradley during this time (as revealed last year).

The Viki, Nat, Jared and Tessica stuff can be fan wanked. I figured since Viki asked Charlie to stick around they had Charlie call Jared to let him know and tell him to tell the twins that he and Viki were together. It would explain it all away.

I like AE, but her kid is dead and this is the reaction? Antonio is rightfully more upset than Tina the mom is?

I can't believe the whole diner got burned down, Wow. :o

      Ambyr Michelle continues to be *that girl.* She’s just a star, period. Elevates every scene she’s in on the sheer strength of her emotional realism and charisma. Can sell any dialogue. I wish the show veered away from the B&B-style scripting. TMG/Leslie’s tirade stood out, I suppose, but she’s getting a bit mustache-twirly. And I wish DD had more to do in that episode than stand and sob.

      Well, that was down to CBS being weak and not being willing to just pulling the plug entirely. They didn't want to commit to cancelling the show in case they needed it for their schedule basically; plus they kept showing that they were willing to make cuts if needed to be.

      I'm sorry but clearly what I've said is not satisfactory to you. I have now read what you have to say, twice. As it happens, my interest at this point is looking at other mislabeled files to find this other Ruth Buzzi content. I do not see any point to each of us repeating ourselves, so I will leave it here.

      It seemed to be your intent. coming into a thread I started and making multiple posts saying my data was wrong. In the next paragraph you say "Of course, I was suspicious from the very first instance where what I saw & heard did not agree with what it should have.  I'm very glad to know why." That certainly didn't stop you from immediately saying the data was wrong, until I provided additional receipts. Why did you not check the daily episode guide (for instance, this one for the 1980's) I posted for the world to see for exactly this reason...to help confirm airdates: http://daytimeroyaltyonline.com/days-daily-summaries-1980-1989-t15361.html? That is what you should be checking BEFORE you make any posts in the future like this, trying to suggest something from my data is incorrect. You could have also messaged me and asked me why your dates weren't adding up with what the correct data is. I would have fast forwarded through that video you posted, spotted Roman and Hope and immediately have told you that was the 11/1/83 episode.

      Jason, just let me say that it was not my intent to any way impugn any of your data  or research. I'm very sorry if it came out that way. Obviously the person I got these 4 November episodes from has mislabeled files, multiples, which I was certainly unaware of.  When I am editing it is all about what I see & hear. Later, I find time for greater reflection.  Of course, I was suspicious from the very first instance where what I saw & heard did not agree with what it should have.  I'm very glad to know why.  If you find you are no longer interested in the edit, that is fine. I have no ego in this. I did it only to share it.

      I feel like Vernon and Anita need to not be hypocrites and try and take the heat off Bill in this case. It's clear that the family used him as a fixer and especially knowing he helped with Martin's situation, they need to either be quiet or support him. BTW...with Vanessa being in the hospital for food poisoning, am I the only one who thought Shanice was gonna say she's pregnant or had an STD? The only reason I say STD is because she hasn't had any memorable sex partners, but I definitely don't believe she just had food poisoning.

      Yeah, I mean I know that the name still pertains. I just laugh at it not now being called Arizona Dust, but, I admit it simply does not have the same ring to it. Above, that is interesting that Arizona had already come up before the crisis.

      Leslie and her family are from Chicago? Anita's background also includes being a former Chi-Town native? Might they connect this and go somewhere with it?

      Honestly who's to say Leslie even birthed Eva, I mean she's a liar, I wouldn't believe a word she says about Eva being Ted's(or hers)
