LOL, I heard this panting-squealing-grunting from the TV last night and turned to see the Incredible Hulk Marty lift that car from Cole's body.

Still, I have to give OLTL props. If it had been any other ABC Daytime show, we would have had Big Stwong Man (Ryan/Zach/Sonny/Jason) doing all the heavy lifting. I'm still shocked McNostril wasn't the one to save the day. I sorta like the idea that Marty's maternal instinct made her do whatever it took to save her son.

What is everyone's opinion of the job Larry Carpenter did today with the accident scenes?

I was impressed. The whole thing really did look like a deserted road at night. And that crane shot at the beginning, when the camera panned from Gigi's car to Cole's which was upside down in a ditch. Then, from above, the camera pans right down to Cole and his phone ringing by his body.

Is it Sweeps? The show had so many twists and turns yesterday. I didn't FF once (except when Stacy started stroking her boobs. I sorta knew what was coming next).

Starr needs to stop acting like a bratty little skank

well she is her mothers daughter.

actually, i believe it is March Sweeps this year.

Monday's episode was amazing. Marty finally has her breakthrough for her son! Finally! Stacy's finally getting on my nerves..wanting Rex, how original, haha... The best part of the episode was the tribute to Phil. Very classy & touching. RIP.

Uh... so Nora's not in the new opening, and neither is Antonio. What's going on? Are they going to have THREE openings?

Btw, they brought back Viki's old black dress shot

Antonio's probably out for good. But, Nora will probably be in Tomorrow's opening, HBS is still on Contract. They have already updated that one. I believe this is Part A. Tomorrow will be Part B, which will be.

Rex,Gigi,Shane,Brody,Jess,Bo,Nora,Clint,Cristian,Todd,Marty,John,Blair,Starr,

Cole, Langston,Markko,Lola,Natalie,Jared,Viki,Charie,Dorian.

But we've already seen part B. Are you saying we're going to get part C?!

Nah. I just don't think they are going to update it anymore. It has all the other characters in it already.

Except Nora

Weareclouds, I don't think you're getting it. Both versions of the opening have been updated and aired now. Nora/Hillary B. Smith is featured in neither.

Version 1:

Rex

Gigi

Shane

Brody

Jessica

Natalie

John

Blair

Marty

Todd

Starr

Cole

Markko

Lola (added from the other version)

Langston

Dorian

Charlie (added from the other version)

Viki

Version 2: (from what I remember)

Starr (new)

Schuyler (new, 2 shots)

Rex

Bo

Matthew (new, 2 shots)

Jared

Natalie

Cristian

Layla

Talia

John

Michael

Marcie

Viki (back in black)

Did anyone notice if Clint was in this version today either? I didn't catch him.

I know that Antonio and Nora were missing, Talia is still in, and Starr, Schuyler and Matthew were added. Stacy is still missing.

I'm very curious about this opening now. At first I thought that I just missed Nora, but she was still in, but now that someone else noticed the same thing, I guess I wasn't wrong.

No, you weren't wrong. And yes, Clint was after Matthew. I think we're gearing up for three openings, maybe to make updates easier. I think they also want a lot of the mainstays featured in two openings, i.e. Rex, Bo, Starr, etc. I could see a potential part C going like this:

Cristian

Antonio

Bo

Nora

Clint

Jessica

Stacy

Gigi

Justin (Matthew's bully)

Marty

Todd

Blair

Dorian

Viki

With this setup, it's extremely easy to remove Antonio's old shots and put new ones in of Hank and Rachel immediately, like with the Sarah exit.

EDIT: Hank is short-term, so not so much for him, lol.

Poor Gigi. She always finds herself in the middle of a mess.

Justin the leprechaun is not on contract. He's not going to be in any opening. I assume Nora is getting a new picture. They have yet to add Stacy and

Rachel

so I think the opening shown today is a work in progress.

Really liked today's show BTW with the exception of Sssstaaaccyyy.

Yes, Justin is on contract. He's in the closing contract credits.

I love Stacy even though--as a male--she is not my type as far as her blond hair and slope nose. I know I'm drawn to her right now because she's a bad girl and all guys are drawn to bad girls just like women are drawn to bad boys. I root for Gigi and Rex but I'm now rooting for Stacy--it's odd.

So far this car crash seems lame. We need some consequences, not reconciliations.

I wouldn't hold your breath about him ending up in the opening. Sometimes they slap a short contract on people just to ensure their availability for a limited story window.
