OLTL: Discussion for the week March 9


Recommended Posts

  • Members

I had the misfortune of catching the Rex/GiGi scenes yesterday. Someone at ABC has got to insist that Farah Fatah take some acting classes. She was horrific. JLP wasn't much better, but at least he was somewhat convincing. Crystal Hunt is a decent enough soap actress so I hope they keep her around after this drivel is over.

100% agreed. I am watching Rex, Gigi, and Stacey right now and Farah is terrible. It is a shame because she has charisma.

Two other things I am noticing-

Michael McBain (whom I have never noticed or cared much about) is VERY, VERY attractive. In an lowkey kinda way. And Scott Clifton is cute as hell today with that flannel shirt!

I think the show stinks but the eye candy is the best!

Whoever did Roxie's hair today deserves an emmy. It is AMAZINGLY funny.

ITA! The storyline is progressing at warped speed. I can't believe that Rex is accusing Stacey of drugging him already and has her number. That never happens. Usually the guy continues to be dumb for months while the heroine is stuck on stupid. I'm actually happy it's not being dragged out since I can't stand either of them.

IDA. I think all three of them are horrible. Putting them on the frontburner and shoving down them down our throats is a huge mistake. I don't care about Gigi and I sure as heck don't care about Stacey. I feel like I'm watching the 90210 DAYS version of Carrie, Austin and Sami on auto pilot.

I agree that Rex and Gigi are the bigger problem than generic vixen Stacey. Why OL is hellbent on throwing a decade's worth of woes at the couple in a year and a half to sell them as the next Greatest Love is a mystery. They've already burned through pot stirrers like Adriana, Brody, Dorian, financial problems, Rex's paternity, Shane's paternity, Shane's endless medical dramas, kidnappings, gunshot wounds, even time travel and still I find them boring and wind up rooting for the other side.

Stacey's probably already slated to be passed along as Fumero's next love interest.

I am pleasantly surprised by how much I like CH this go round, I could not STAND her on GL. FF makes some of the weirdest grimaces ever, her mouth reminds me of a buttery syrupy pancake folded in half. What gets me though, where was Gigi's argument that Stacy is her sister, screw whatever real or imagined advances Rex made.

I saw a promo,

    • 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. 
    • Yup.  You can hate John all you want, but like seriously he was the cornerstone of the show for years.  So he should get a long ass funeral and burial and all the things because Drake and John deserve that.

      look who’s at a party I’m at
    • Yes. We should absolutely move on from John/Drake's 40 year legacy on the show to see what Leo is going to do tomorrow.  Lol.  This can't be a serious post.

      I came in with a dream and left with a purpose. From lecture halls to rehearsals, community work to creative sets, every moment shaped me. I’m so proud of the stories I’ve told here — and the ones still unfolding. Grateful to everyone who poured into me, supported me, challenged me, and believed in me. Fours up and peace out! #UCLA #ClassOf2025 #BlackBruinExcellence #YearbookVideo @jordanward              
    • The actor who plays Martin has been teasing that nobody has guessed Martin's secret. I love that for things like that and the June story we have no idea. I feel like if we didn't have the day ahead feeds Anita's reveal would've been shocking as well. I love that they aren't going the obvious route with these stories.
