OLTL week of August 18, 2008

[Toups]

I hope he finds out because Ron will be connecting stories once again, like he did before the strike. I hope he gets back to that storylines structure - everything connects. I'm already starting to see a bit of that.

[rhinohide]

I really loved Clint and Jared today. This is what I've been waiting for, although I am annoyed more than I expected that

.

[MTSRocks]

So Todd is going to steal the baby, and we're going to repeat the same storyline that was pretty much just told. Good grief. Originality and Llanview don't mix these days.

[Vee]

I think the stories are starting to re-weave in that excellent way too. Now all we need to do is exorcise 1968, and the frickin' John and Blair and Starr's baby stories.

[Gordon24]

The 1968 storyline should be over about mid week next week. I already see OLTL setting up their SWEEPS storylines and I like what I am seeing.

[MichaelGL]

I enjoyed today's show. I'm happy that their focusing on the BE/CE story. I'm even more interested that Clint is targeting Langston. I guess the apple didn't fall far from the tree eh?

[chrishntr]

I really enjoyed today's show, don't think I FF anything.

Tina SO has to know something is going on with Jess, and I wish she would call Viki, or pick the lock on that door and go down to the basement to see what Jess/Tess is up to, and sorry but someone needs to SLAP Tess. I was hoping that David Vickers would bite her ankles.

Todd is evil. Totally evil. But.....so much fun to watch.

Can I get lucky and have Tonio, Cris and Sarah go to Mendorra and NOT have to watch any of it? I really wish they would have had Carlo come back in another way besides this stuff.

Truly LOVED the scenes with Clint and Jared, and I so cannot wait to see what Clint has up his sleeve where Dorian is concerned. It's about time someone gave Dorian a taste of her own medicine.

[Cheap21]

Its pretty sad that Tina, someone who is self absorbed and hasnt seen Jessica in 10 years, knows something is wrong with Jessica, and everyone else doesnt

Loving Jared's new hairstyle. He's looking hot

I think what Clint is planning is wrong. I cant believe he'd use an innocent child to get to Dorian. I wish he left Langston out of this

[All My Shadows]

He is!! My boy reminded me why I loved him today...it was so good to see him out of that "Everyone should hate me because I'm evil, what I did was wrong, please feel free to call me Mr. Doormat" phase. Bring back my smart Jared who does things and gets the job done and shows them all why even though he scammed their asses, he still has more business sense than some of the other "board members" (Sarah, Joey, Natalie, Jessica....looking exactly at yall asses).

[rhinohide]

I knew there was a reason I loved you. Can they make it stop, please?

[rhinohide]

I loved how he kept sticking it to Clint about Natalie. I also loved how Jared paused over using Langston, but then recommitted because he's doing this for Natalie . . . well mostly, because we all know he wants back in the game.

I hope this will create a story for Natalie. How will she react when she discovers how ruthless the two men she loves most (neither of whom is named John, thank GAWD!) really are?

[margie619]

I don't know how much it will bother Natalie since she can be pretty ruthless herself. She may get upset at first but will get over it. I am so happy that Nat is far away from John. She became a doormat when she was with him.

[rhinohide]

I disagree about Natalie with John, but I am still glad she's away from him. I don't like him with anyone so I am sad about any connection to Blair. But nobody likes everything on a soap at any given time. I am enjoying many things on OLTL more in the last few weeks. I just ff the quad stuff.

I also disagree about Natalie's reaction to what Clint and Jared are doing. She was very upset by Clint's ruthless tactics against Cobb and the other raiders. She an Jared disagreed strongly about that, so I feel certain there will be some fall out from this. Looking forward to it.

[Ripley Todd]

I friggin LOVED the Clint/Jared stuff. I loved how Jared kept digging at Clint about his treatment of Natalie. I also liked how Clint kept digging at Jared about his scam. I like the friction between these two and having Jared doing his dirty work was pretty brilliant, IMO. I hope they are going where I think they are going with this Langston story because I'm gonna eat it up with a spoon. Especially once Viki returns and finds out Dorian's role in Charlie falling off the wagon. I really have noticed a difference in the writing and storytelling this week. I have enjoyed it....

[dm.]

If 1968 and Mendorra didn't happen, there would still be a huge group of OLTL supporters. It's weird how they all dropped the show immediately after either of those stories began.
