OLTL: Week of Febuary 2, 2009 Discussion


Recommended Posts

My favorite stuff was the Buchanan girls. I can see both sides, and one minute I'm totally hating on Natalie, and then the next I'm cheering her on. This is great, emotional stuff and I can't wait to see where they are going with the whole kids thing. I wish Jess would just sign custody over to her parents which would circumvent any long drawn out custody battle between the girls. I don't want to see that...

I actually thought it looked fake. They needed to choreograph it better since Tea's hair was a total mess when she brought her head up and in the next shot it was perfectly in place.

Tea owes Blair and Marty a beat down for putting their hands on her.

Haha, Blair got exactly what she deserved for going after Marty.

Blair may have slapped Tea but Tea won that fight. She kept her composure and completey owned Blair with her words. She made Blair look more desperate and silly

Yesterday they said Rex was married 3 times. I count Jen and Adriana. Who's the third?

I was wondering about that too, Cheap...

Is it possible he married Jen twice? I remember there was the blink-and-you-missed it marriage between Rex/Jen that broke up quickly and Jen got involved with Joey. Did Rex ever marry her a second time before she was killed?

Outside of Adriana, I can't think of another wedding/marriage for Rex. Either they goofed or it was some pre-Llanview wedding that Gigi knows about, but the audience doesn't.

I'm actually wondering if Rex has a history with this new Stacy.

At another website, whose insiders used to be extremely reliable- are saying that Andrea Evans is returning to OLTL and is one of the favorites hinted at!!!

If you hate her!? Tough.

I LOVE HER!!!! WHOO-HOO!!!!!!!!!

I really hope this is true...

By the way, I like this Stacy chick already. Just a vibe.

Cheap, Why did they just not make Stacy, Sarah??? She would have been perfect. I do have a great feeling. I think she can at least act.

Gay CJ would be a perfect addition as well...

I researched the AE rumor, The board I trust unfortunately got the info from Soap Opera Central- which tends to be HORRIBLE, i.e. Jill Farren Phelps being fired fron GH in 2002 (Never happened) Michelle Val Jean being promoted as headwriter (Never happened) ect..

I just pmed the dude who started this and basically threatened his life it it was not true.

But somehow, the Mitch thing, Tina..... Oh baby I am in heaven.

Supposedly, Carlivati and Valentini never wanted her to leave.

AMEN. THAT episode was the only episode of OLTL I have "taped" since 1995. You could feel the "love". It was so warm and heartfelt and one of my favorite episodes this year. It also spoke volumes about how the writers felt about the character despite and completely f-ed up summer.

After such a goofy messed up run where Tina was concerned, the montage was so warm and serious that it felt like a totaly different writer... Very strange... And when Tina said Llanview had not seen the last of her- I felt like Ron was saying- We f-ed this up and we will eventually make things right.

Dee- Based on recent history- Valentini is a budgeting master- Castingwise, OLTL appears to have no issue with affording anyone. Kamar leaving could easily get them one or two more actors.

Generally when big returns or casting is announced, other actors are in the process of leaving.

Hence- Bye Justice, Hello girl from Guiding Light..

And rumor has it that Michael and Marcie will be out by spring. As well as Tika. And I don't see the Santi's lasting much longer either.

You would never know it looking at the ratings, but thank god for Valentini.

I hope there is some confirmation on this soon.

To me, the biggest obstacle would have been Frons as far as Andrea...

It also helps that Andrea Evans wasnt on contract before and really isnt interested. Id love it if they were to manage an arrangement with her the way they did with Catherine Hickland. Lindsay was recurring but when they needed her, she was utilized extensively and then slipped into the background when they were done

    • The penthouse was my favorite set... and it changed hands from Margo to Draper/April to Miles/Nicole then to just Miles... before he opted to give that beautiful place for that drab house with the even more drab Beth.  That was a jump the shark moment for me LOL
    • The storyline April and Draper are involved in during the summer/autumn of 1979 seems fairly "benign" but soon turns very serious.  April has a VERY intrusive, wealthy mother (Margo Huntington Dorn).  Margo knows that April and Draper (who've recently had a miscarriage and are theoretically never going to be able to conceive another baby) want to buy a house.  Margo hoodwinks them into buying a house they can't afford.  The house is listed at $100,000 (about $400,000 in today's dollars).  Margo pays the first $35,000 and leads Draper to believe the asking price of the house is $65,000 instead of $100,000.  If Draper finds out his meddling mother-in-law paid 1/3 of the cost of the home and tricked him, he'll be mad as hell.   Meanwhile, Draper has received a job offer from a prestigious New York law firm.  Margo pulls some strings and has the senior partner in the firm rescind the offer, to keep April in Monticello.  If Draper finds out about THAT, he'll be even angrier with Margo than he will be about the house trickery.  All of that is "bubbling under the surface" in the fall of 1979 but will be the next major story, as everything begins to spiral out of control.   Yep, you've got the Karrs and their very basic middle-class house, the Victorian-themed place where Miles and Nicole live, April and Draper's old craftsman house with the exposed beams, the Madisons & their Mission revival house, and Margo with her 1970s-chic penthouse.  Each of the sets is completely different.  And their budget was like zero, lol.  
    • It felt weird and out of place.  I get. While I agree with those on here that he's gotten better, it's still really bad. I'm not seeing the "good" acting some see...but I'll give him a B for being better than when he first started. There's potential. I'll leave it at that. 
    • It's like watching paint dry at a slow-ass pace. It's bad acting. Entirely. Excellent? With Claybon? Never. Ever.

    • Ah! Good to hear. Isn't it especially odd to think that house fictionally exists not far from the Karrs?  Or, that it was designed non-fictionally by the same person who designed April's place?
    • Good to know I'm not the only one who noticed that. Strange and awkward, and I don't know what they're doing with those fades.   -- Finally, had to laugh at how many Emmys this board passed out today.

    • Not unless they live in an apartment complex.

    • That was bad. Product placement is fine, but not here, not now. Besides, no one carries their damn detergent to the living room.   Completely and utterly disagree. I thought Brandon Claybon was excellent today -- maybe his best performance since the show started. No recast needed.   Not unpopular with me. That didn't work. The montage was good, but 5 minutes of Amazing Grace? With all those verses? No. What kind of family breaks into a loud version of Amazing Grace after what just happened??? None. Anita's lecture to Leslie was great. Ending the show -- a really good episode with crackling dialogue -- like that was a mistake.  
    • Today, was a fantastic episode. I loved everything about, including Ainta singing, Amazing Grace. I love the family dynamic of the Dupree's so much. They remind me of my own family at times. Martin & Smitty have come leaps and bounds from where they  started. I genuinely felt a connection between them I can't wait to watch it deepen. Dana/Leslie/Sherry/Ana is a piece of work. Her speech at the Dupree's about her "concern" for Eva and then locking her out of their apartment??? She is pure evil, but I love it. I can't wait to see where the Eva/Kat story goes. There's so much potential there. As for Ted, I need to see Keith Robinson in the role before giving my true critique of Maurice Johnson.
