LMFAO!

Great show today, OLTL is definitely the most balanced soap on air right now. Surprisingly good directing and writing in today's show IMO.

Balsco and J&B are love! :wub:

Loved the Renee and Janet scenes!

Viki managed to do the impossible, make me feel for Todd. Nice use of history mentioning the first time Todd held Starr.

The teen scenes were bland as usual, though I liked SC and KA's chemistry(I wonder if they'd actually go there?).

Bo and Nora completely over-reacted IMO, it's just a blunt lol.

I :wub: Tea Her scenes with Antonio and Talia were great.

I was watching Talia, Antonio, Bo and I was thinking

Put these 3 on an airplane, pick up Christian-

and have it crash.

I wouldn't even flinch.

And RSW costs a pretty penny.

I do agree Piston- the show is very well balanced..

I really like the new teacher too, love Renee and Lee, and for me, again, Blair has made John tolerable.

And I don't blame Blair for not wanting to be with another man off worrying about Marty.

Top scenes today were Viki and Todd. Well done.

Cheap that was brilliant.

I would not want to be an actor on OLTL- their taping schedule leaves me cold.

How does it work- A months worth of scenes on a specific set are shot, what have you...

It sounds disjointed and it must be hard to build a new character especially.

All those continuity problems. But hey, according to some OLTL is way under budget so this is why.

    • Oh wow that’s pretty awesome! I wish I had  approached him but there was so many people 
    • In the current environment, while it's small, there is a crumb of good news: Apparently, San Antonio voted for a DEMOCRATIC mayor, Gina Ortiz, beating the "right-hand man" of Gov. Greg Abbott, former Texas Secretary of State Rolando Pablos. https://thehill.com/homenews/campaign/5337199-gina-ortiz-jones-wins-san-antonio/
    • Love this! You are both adorable. Wow
    • I have not gone back to watch much of 1987, but from what I've seen lately, it doesn't feel like the writers or producers had any sort of plan. The show feels as if it's constantly in flux.  I will give it credit for this. It's watchable for the most part minus Lisa/Jamie which I find nearly unwatchable now.   I don't find Cheryl mousy. I think she has a lot of quiet strength, but she was saddled with the Scott romance which the writers did not invest in. She had a good friendship with Julie (also criminally underused), and her interactions with Ada were enjoyable as well. I also like Layman, but Spencer was extremely talented and when Cass returns, Schnetzer and Spencer have some wonderful scenes. Spencer also fits in with Alexander, Hogan, and Marie.  I'd forgotten just how much I missed seeing Wallingford. IT was so good to see him again. Even when they didn't have a major plot, Felicia/Cass/Wallingford/Mitch always brings a smile to my face.  
    •   Dani’s cute ass party planner. He gave me some tea but I was so drunk I don’t remember it.
    • NBC must have been grateful to have LHOTP, it's only hit and still strong after several seasons. Their next established show was Rockford Files at 45th. They didn't develop any comedies and relied on movies and mini series  which didnt establish viewer loyalty and habits. Their only new hit was mid season's Project UFO which debuted Feb up against Rhoda/On Our Own on CBS and How the West Was Won on ABC. It opened with a strong 36 share beating CBS and close to ABC as HTWWW had a 36 share over 3 hours. The next week UFO saw a respectable 32 share, then a 31 so it was slipping. A 28 share followed but a few weeks later it jumped back up to a 34. So no blockbuster but compared to what else they had, there was potential, So next season NBC sent it to Thursday up against Mork and The Waltons and it bombed.  They were smart to see potential in Chips, which took off on Saturdaysnext season. ABC was on a roll with Love Boat, 3's Company, Taxi, Eight is Enough adding to their hits. Their only real flops were Redd Foxx and San Pedro Beach Bums, an Aaron Spelling misfire. Like Redd Foxx, Harvey Korman was lured to ABC but his series was a filler that did well but was considered a time slot hit. Nancy Walker and Rob Reiner were also given series on the philosophy that not only were they popular names, their absence from popular shows like Sanford, Rhoda and All in the Family might weaken those shows. CBS were relying on old favorites. Betty White was strong the first few weeks then faded. Incredible Hulk was their strongest newbie. It was lucky for CBS that NBC was doing so badly or else some of their weaker shows would have really suffered.
    • That outfit looks like something Martin would wear lol.
    • Omg not we both ran into people from the show this weekend!
    • I guess he was let out the gates, because he's outside.
