OLTL Discussion: Week of December 1-5

[daysfan]

No actually Dallas was all Ron if I remember right. Didn't she return in July, when Loyita Chapel returned for the 1968 story as Renee? And of course that was Ron's work.

[Cheap21]

why did Ron have to bring back the 2 completely useless characters of Mo and Noelle back? Ugh and it looks like they are here to stay. I hate how all of Paris has been transported to Llanview. Didnt like that storyline and dont like how that stuff has lingered on

[leevo64]

I, for one, am glad that Moe and Noelle have come to Llanview to stay. The Paris, TX story was my all-time favorite on OLTL, and to bring them back as supporting characters like Roxy and Carlotta is a great idea.

The Jessica scenes were a little hokey for my tastes but I loved Brody's reactions as he witnessed all three transformations. These two are going to be one hot couple. I don't like the psychiatrist, though, he's very flat compared to Dr. Joplin.

Shane's a little brat. I hope they capitalize on that and have him become devious (as it's been rumored). Rex and Gigi are a great couple, though. I love how they dress Gigi.

The scenes where Starr held the baby was classic soap. I can't wait for this story to unfold.

ALSO... does anyone else think that Janet may have killed Dr. Joplin?

[Ripley Todd]

I am happy Moe and Noelle are back. They are like a pair of old shoes for me. Very comfortable, and fun to watch and they are a nice change of pace from some of the characters that I do not like, and do not want to see day in and day out.

So the signs for Roxy's Haircuts I could see were:

The Rockin' Roxy

Vicki's Classy Coif

Langston's Glam Locks

Lindsay's Shaggable Shag

Blair Cramer Bob

DA Hanen Do

and one below that I couldn't make out love them

[EricMontreal22]

LOL I freaking love you right now. Best laugh I've had all day.

[DrewH]

LMAO! I love the humor on this show.

[Dale]

Did anyone else find the Dr. Joplin scenes kinda gruesome and disturbing? All that blood and her slumped over her desk. And besides that, we lose a very good actress!

[Heatherhcb]

Yesterday was great...

Vicki/Starr- I just love them. Starr is so completely destroyed by losing her baby and learning the truth about her father. I really felt for Starr- I think I would feel the same way if I were Starr. What Todd did is unforgiveable. I loved Starr/Vicki convo about Todd and the attic. I remember when Todd cared about his kids!! I really felt for Starr when she saw Todd in cuffs. Poor girl- she is so lost.

Blair/John/Marty- STFU Marty. Blair was trying to be nice and sympathize with you and you accuse her of cheating on Todd. I so wanted Blair to bitch slap Marty. She was so out of line. I am really starting to hate her. Between not coming down for thanksgivng with Cole and attcking Blair for no reason- I am just done. I get that she is mad and has been hurt, but the world doesn't revole around Marty!!!

Bess/Jess/Tess/Brody- I loved his reaction to meeting all the alters. I mean that is some crazy sh*t!!! I loved how he didn't judge her or freak out. I kinda like Brody and Jess together!! Someone listen to Tess- that is not her baby!!!

Shane is really getting on my nerves. Rex has bent over backwords for the kid and he still treats him like crap. I really don't get all the Brody love- newsflash he lied to you and so did your mom!!!

Roxy is always a treat!!!

Todd trying to run away like a coward- typical Todd!!!

I love Nora!!!!

[rangethatrover]

Well it was a good 3 weeks!

Wake me when Friday's episode is OVAH!

Marty is now saddled with McBore.

This return of the two hillbillies from the diner in Texas is dumb and pointless., Why not put that money somewhere else... And the woman is an awful actress.

Illegal aliens, ect and these two lame SANTI's or whatever they are. Send them away.

Addie saying "We are awesome" was very funny though.

This show doesn't no s+it about how to sustain.

Cannot wait for Tea's return.

[rangethatrover]

Shoot. I spoke way too soon.

#1) Susan Haskell is damn amazing.

#2)The look Dorian gave her made me LAUGH OUT LOUD. Its around 12 minutes in, Marty starts to break down and is crying and Dorian makes the most comical look I have ever seen. LOLLLLLL

Then Blair drags her out-

It was excellent!!!

I'll shut up now.

[MTSRocks]

Huh? What happened to Dr. Joplin?

[rangethatrover]

She fell in love with Lee Halpern and they ran off into the night.

John heard on his police scanner that were seen in Oregon with a "Just Married" sign on their Prius.

[rhinohide]

Don't tell them that! LOL. Joplin apparently committed suicide.

It's official. I hate Marty. Before I was neutral. Just meh. No slam against SH, but the character positively reeks. I have no sympathy for her and want her quickly in another Van of Doom to be sent careening off a ledge.

[asa]

John's move today was low...very low. It flipped the script on Todd and John in my eyes--not that I think Todd is great and John evil, but I'm beginning to sympathize with Todd despite his actions while I think John's brand of vigilante justice is dubious and scummy. I don't imagine Marty and John will end up back together and I'm actually pulling for Todd and Marty to somehow overcome everything and be together in one hell of a mess.

Some of you are odd--you don't like Moe and Noelle? They were/are great and fill unique roles that need to be filled in Llanview. They know Shane, Gigi, Dorian, Marcie, Charlie, and Viki--they'll blend into a lot of storylines and provide a conscious or a sounding board when needed.

The Vega/Vanessa stuff is unbearable but then, other than Lola, none of them have any personality. I was beginning to warm up to Talia before the Mendorra storyline but now she's lame. With Moe and Noelle around, let's rid the canvas of the Vegas (and I include Carlotta who I've always liked but her standing as the sounding board/conscious was deconstructed years ago with the Santi storyline).

Jess and Brody will be great. I still believe we're witnessing what will become the backbone of the show with Brody/Jess/Rex/Gigi. They can swap partners, they will be friends, enemies, friends again, have happy endings and bad endings. I saw this because we know Gigi/Brody can work and I think John-Paul is a solid enough actor to bring out some of the sparkle Bree has shown in fleeting moments. Perhaps it's wishful thinking but with Natalie being backburnered (and rightfully so--we've been hit over the head with too many Natalie storylines the past few years), I think they have the new young backbone they've needed to compliment the veteran backbone.
