OLTL: Discussion for the week March 9

[Scotty]

It was last week when we saw Viki....on Wednesday, the 4th. Viki will be on again next week.....wish I could say the same about Charlie. But who knows, maybe he will pop up again as well.

ITA! Thursday and Friday's shows were great to watch. I'm usually kind of neutral about Jerry ver Dorn, but he was excellent in that scene with Bo and Nora. And Ilene Kristen... why she's not on contract, I 'll never know.

Another topic: didn't Carlivati himself write the Viki goes to Paris TX and meets Charlie story? And given that Erika herself recently said they'd pitched a storyline for Viki and Frons said no, I think the absence of Viki and Charlie is due not to Carlivati but to Frons. I'm neutral about Carlivati too... but I can't help but wonder what kind of show we'd be watching (and who we'd be watching) if Frons were removed from his job. (Yes, I know that will never happen, but I'm becoming more and more curious.)

I haven't seen Charlie since the Buchanans went to crash at Viki's place when Dorian and David booted them out. Was that really more than two weeks ago now?

Thanks!

Yeah, and I think RC championed it as one of his first major stories. He also gave her a love scene too lol

I think this week was excellent, barely an episode without gradual story movement. If only RC can keep this up til May.

At this point, Mo and Noelle get more airtime than Viki and Charlie. Thats just pathetic

I am not going to blame Carlivati for the lack of Viki/Charlie either. It's obviously a network decision, which is a shame because Viki and Charlie are a magical pairing. Hopefully we'll see more of them soon.

I heard that a Viki and Charlie storyline was dropped.. which is such ashame. The way OLTL is going (outstanding), adding Viki and Charlie and giving them more airtime would just add to One Life's greatness. Maybe it's because they have SO many storylines going on already? Matthew's paralyzed, Cole's drug problem, Shane's leukemia, Rex's father, Gigi/Stacy/Rex drama, baby switch, Jess/Brody, serial killer/Todd/Blair/John, etc..

Speaking of Jess and Brody, I LOVED their kiss on Friday. Totally worth the wait

This week's OLTL has been brought to you by....

Campbell's Select Harvest 'Healthy Request' Chicken Soup with Egg Noodles

It's good for your heart!

Here's another pic....

Sorry I just couldn't resist....especially after the Campbell's/Go Red Ball cross-promotional stuff last month.

I took both pics. in my kitchen a few weeks ago. I was in the pantry looking for a snack and saw the can, and thought it was funny.

Agreed. As soon as Marcie said third baby, they put it together. This is historical for a soap I am sure.

I just watched the clip from Broadway Cares of the clip with Brandon B, Farah F, JPL, MA and John B. I thought it was fun, but I think if they'd just had KB running across the stage waving her hands screaming "My Baby! My Baby!" it would have been hysterical. Poor KB. I swear 1/3 of her dialogue for the last two years has consisted of "My Baby!"

And that baby who plays Chloe is precious. I wonder if they just kept the camera on her for awhile and edited in scenes because it was really funny. Marcie would say "My baby" and that little girl would just grin like "Yep! Here I am!" LOL. So many times it seemed her facial expressions were appropriate responses to the dialogue.
