ATWT: May Discussion

[All My Shadows]

Don't you know? Anyone who causes Luciano to be thrust into the throngs of peril is evillllll.

I actually loved the tender moment between Damian and Luke. Holden is just being a total ass.

[MTSRocks]

Do people still find Damian attractive? He looks unhealthy IMO.

[Soapsuds]

He looked like that the last time he appeared. I think it is just age. I do think he is too skinny. If he put on some weight he would look much better.

[DRW50]

He does look a little too skinny. I don't think they're writing Damian as the evil, but I may still have my anti-Damian blockers on. Whenever they're not being blatant in the Damian hate, I just assume he's in the right, like his original run. We were supposed to root for Lily and Holden and see Damian as the oily interloper, but I hated, hated, hated, hated Holden (I've always hated him but I HATED memory loss, dump-my-child-off-on-Emma-after-I-steal-him-from-Iva Holden), so I always rooted for Damian.

I watched some of today's show once I heard about Noah and the gun, because that's kind of the direction I'd have liked to see Noah go in, embracing the military, somewhat conservative background he'd resented and respected thanks to his father. Luke would probably be simultaneously disgusted and excited. Then if they want to write Noah out, he can just go join the Jack Harkness cult over at Torchwood. Ianto can occasionally pop into Oakdale and stun gun Dusty and Jack and Dusty and Meg and Dusty and Paul and Dusty and Craig and Dusty.

Have you heard the rumors Kriezman will be at ATWT once GL is over? God help them. With all those Snyders around at least he can find his new Jammy.

[P.J.]

Oh, please....I'm sure a debate on who's hair is worse, MTS' or ED's on a particular day would get more talk than ATWT. We're lucky to have a thread.

I think PS is uber-skinny. Maybe he's just naturally lanky, but he looks as small as some of the actresses.

I mis-spoke. Casey should be Kris, the clutzy kid-sister no one can hate. I guess that leaves Ali as the dim-witted, shaking her cans Kelly. If only she still had Aaron's motorcycle, so she could dramatically take off the helmet and toss her hair back.

I heard the DK rumor---I think it's totally baseless. We've probably got half the writing staff of GL.

[All My Shadows]

Of course Luke would be Farrah/Jill. We'd be hearing his bitching for days on end if he wasn't.

Crap, now I'm gonna spend the morning watching the Angels. It's been a while since I have.

I like Hunter. I'm impressed that since his first episode, the actor seemed natural and had a grasp of the character. There hasn't been of that awkwardness that a newbie sometimes has - you know - like Silbermann had 2 years ago and still hasn't gotten over. lol.

This guy's a natural.

[P.J.]

I guess I like Hunter....but this clutz thing gets old fast. *eyeroll* I can see the story now, all it'll take for poor Hunter to stop being a clutzy nerd is a little hot, sweaty sex with Emily. Her woo-woo is going to need another 50,000 check up pretty soon.

[ranger1rg]

is there a more SEXLESS character around than allison? i swear, the girl is frigid -- and i have no idea why hot casey wants her.

of course, NUKE is pretty sexless, too. nauseating, in fact. there's no heat at all between them -- just sickening, sickeningly sweet looks and sappy lines from hell.

JS has always been a terrible actor, but i rue the day i thought van hansis could act. he's worse every week.

[Soapsuds]

The actor playing Hunter could have been Noah. He is a vast improvement from Jake Silbermann. I can't believe how much the actor playing Hunter resembles

[DRW50]

If he was Noah then I'm not sure if he'd get the same reaction, as there are a lot of people who would have disliked Noah and the idea of Nuke no matter who was playing the part, especially since Noah has never been that well written of a character.

ATWT is very hit and miss with new faces. I liked BM's Casey from the start but I don't think they've ever given him good material, aside from the brief fling with Emily.

[P.J.]

There's nothing wrong with nuLucy---but TAIC have done her no favors refusing to really reconnect her to anyone in Oakdale besides Craig and Dusty. And Johnny......*eyeroll*....I hate to sound nasty, but that kid has no personality whatsoever. He reminds me of the Daniel Hughes who was nothing but a lump on someone's shoulder.

It's kind of sad watching Maura work so damn hard to try and imbue the Craig/Lucy scenes with some emotion. Between PickledHerringLindstrom and nice but bland Lucy, it's hard to conjure up any warmth at all.

Note to hairstyling---chop Dusty's hair!!! Good God....that oil slick could endanger Oyster Bay. Thank God Dusty's never got dumped into the water while he was at the "docks".

Meg and Paul---stick a fork in it already. Get it OFF my screen.

[P.J.]

Hmmn....nothing to say today, people???

I understand.

I remember various posters going on and on about how being married to Jack would neuter Carly as a character. He never wanted her to work, she'll be a typical Snyder--barefoot and pregnant.... blahblahblah blah. So...what is Carly stuck doing with Craig??? Cooking pot roast. *eyeroll*

I seriously wish someone would shut Katie and Brad TFU. BOO-friggin'-HOO...Katie doesn't know how she can live her life never having a child. I swear to God, I'd love to slap her into next year. Not two "days" ago, she acted as if Henry's child was toxic waste. IT. CHAPS. MY. HIDE.

[Soapsuds]

Your two posts have me speechless. After reading yesterday's post I didn't have the heart to watch the show. I haven't even seen it today. I am two days behind. I am so much enjoying Y&R instead of the crapfest that is ATWT. Goutman should watch Y&R and learn a thing or two about good soap drama.
