November 4, 200817 yr Member How do we think Robin's voting? I feel like she's going Democrat... I love Robin so much. Obama all the way, she's said so on her Hotline. Skinny John McBain holding down muscles Keys? That was pretty funny. Like that could happen. LOL I thought the exact same thing! And Keys was really playing it up like John was capable of tossing him around!
November 4, 200817 yr Member A little OT, but for you Dorian fans... They showed a brief clip of "veteran soap opera star, Robin Strasser" on the ABC noon news here in New York. She was in coat and hat, in line (or as New Yorkers say, on line) to vote at 4:45 this morning. She said that she wanted to make sure she'd have enough time to vote before she had to go to work. Gawd, I want to see that lol. I'm convinced more and more each day that Robin is just a much, much nicer version of Dorian in real life. Please tell me she had shades on at 4:45am.
November 4, 200817 yr Member John McBain SHUT UP! SHUT UP! SHUT UP! I loathe the character and the actor. GO AWAY. Forever!!! This guy who plays Brody is the hottest man I have ever seen. And he can ACT.
November 4, 200817 yr Member I am really sorry. But Kristen was TERRIBLE today. She is out of her league. She is a VERY, VERY, VERY lucky girl having a front burner leading role on a soap, all things considered.... If I was OLTL's Exec Producer, well let's be real, if I were Brian Frons, I would overhaul OLTL's ENTIRE under 32 crowd- including Bree's "hitcha wit a sledgehammer" acting style, David Fumero, Kristen, Gigi, the dude who play's Gigi's son, of course recast Sarah (see ya Justice!). I find Melissa Archer terrible as well. They need some younger actors on par with the adults. Edited November 4, 200817 yr by rangethatrover
November 4, 200817 yr Member Oh good gravy, put the Horatio Cane wanabe in a straight jacket!!! Is that directed at me? I had to Wikipedia Horatio Cane. I can't help it I just HATE OLTL's younger cast. I think they are terrible and need a team of acting coaches.
November 4, 200817 yr Member Is that directed at me? I had to Wikipedia Horatio Cane. LOL, no. The Horatio Cane wannabe is John McBain.

If wishes were horses . . . I think they're on a par with actors of the same age group on other soaps. I don't think Rebecca Buddig, or Alicia Minshew or any other performer on any ABC soap is Meryl Streep. I do think some of the talent on CBS is superior. But they're (MA, Bree, et al) not going anywhere so I don't understand how you can continue to watch or enjoy the show if you think they're so terrible. Who in that age group on any soap do you think is so extraordinary? Edited November 4, 200817 yr by rhinohide
November 4, 200817 yr Member I think they're on a par with actors of the same age group on other soaps.

I'm sure the amazingly fast pace would knock the wind out of her. but i still love you, rhino
November 4, 200817 yr Member OVERRATED. I'd like to see Meryl Streep work on a soap. I'm sure the amazingly fast pace would knock the wind out of her. but i still love you, rhino LOL! And I love you back. I always use her for some unknown reason, and even I don't think she's that great. Maybe Cate Blanchett would be better? And I totally agree that these performers work under constraints unheard of in any other medium. It's great that they make their characters live day after day and "own" them, because they sure don't get to have long rehearsals with a director and multiple takes to get it right. If I thought the "talent" was so much greater on another soap, I'd probably be watching that one.

Who in that age group on any soap do you think is so extraordinary? I am not talking about other shows I am talking about OLTL. And their younger cast SUCKS. They need coaches. To have an actress of Kristen's "caliber" carrying a HUGE storyline requires a certain level of talent. This is just my opinion. Today, I cringed at her performance. I don't cringe while watching Y&R (with the exception of that Australian chick).. I continuously cringe when watching OLTL. And the majority of the younger casts on Y&R, ATWT, and GH are far superior to OLTL's. Archer is shrill and one note, Bree is the same. David Fumero? OLTL is my all time favorite soap, I watch it out of a sense of sentimentality, not because I particularly enjoy it most of the time. As for the adults? I feel the cast is one of the best, along with Y&R and GH. I miss the days when shows had younger talents like Jennifer Finnigan on B&B. That girl knew how to act. I am almost 33 so maybe I am getting old and cranky.

I've recently begun watching GH and I don't find their "under 30's" to be such stellar talents. I guess I would say all the performers are "spotty". I find the same to be true on other soaps. It's just subjective. But as I've proven time and again, when it begins to make me cringe, I watch something else. There are too many alternatives these days to put myself through such torture.
