OLTL: Discussion for the Week of December 29th

[rhythmchyc]

I love how Trevor looked like a little boy about to throw up. I love how he was hunched over, looking as physically tiny and worthless as he must feel inside.

I also love this suicidal thing going on. I can't wait to see what happens next.

and before that Tea spelled it out to him and he still didnt listen. He's a pathetic idiot

[Dr. Jay S.W.]

Ah. Yes he is going thru right now.

Sharon Lennon is a new writer on the show. She wrote a Lesbian radio soap opera. She's new to the team as well as Katherine Schock, who wrote for OLTL years ago.

Am I the only one that feels nauseous at the sight of John and Blair? Ok, Blair in general.

[Dr. Jay S.W.]

Trevor is reminding me of Roger's Todd with Peter Manning. Yes different circumstances but similar acting.

[kelly1142]

Peter? I could understand. He was an abusive bastard.

Marty? Um, no. She's literally pushing him around. And he's TAKING it!

I don't expect him to fight back, but at least be like he was during the whole Marty "you're not a man, you're a curse" speech...he stood there, looked her in the eye, and took it because he knew what he'd done was wrong, but he didn't cower or wasn't wimpy about it.

[Dr. Jay S.W.]

Just like when Blair found out Walker was Todd. He was bad ass then. He cowered when she said "here you are trying to make me fall in love with you" I'll find the scene. When Todd know's hes wrong, he cowers. I think those are good acting choices by TSJ.

Dorian said she's going to sue Alex for hit and run bc she left her for dead on the road. Kind of like she did with Jessica and her baby

omg, I cant believe it. The way the promos showed it, I thought he would accidently fall from a struggle with Marty but Todd just droped himself off the roof.

[Dr. Jay S.W.]

Around 3:20. I'd watch the whole thing though. Great scenes!!

[Toups]

Todd actually jumped. What a Friday cliffhanger!!

I'm with Jay on this, that Todd's not acting wimpy, he's just totally given up and has mentally lost it.

Addie and David were hilarious today. I'm really enjoying David Vickeroshi.

Thanks for posting that clip, Jay. Those were great scenes.

[DeeeDee]

Pretty much!

[Dr. Jay S.W.]

How much better would OLTL be with ATWT's theme song? Ryan [Chandler] made this for my old blog. It's great

[rhinohide]

I confess. I've never gotten the fascination with the theme music and the openers.

[Dr. Jay S.W.]

[rhinohide]

LOL! And you see it over and over and over again. No matter what happens on the show, who is writing it, what characters are featured, none of that is reflected in the opener. I didn't mean to sound condescending. In fact, I guess in a way I was admitting to one of my many inadequacies.
