OLTL: Dropped stories


Recommended Posts

Rex still has his old loft? I thought when he moved in with Gigi, he gave up that place. It wasnt too long ago that he was too poor to afford Shane a Christmas gift, yet he still had a place that he wasnt even living in?

Welcome to Soap Economics, where a man can work part-time as a bartender and still afford a studio apartment more spacious, more lavishly furnished, than any coldwater, roach-infested dump you'd be lucky to find in any major, metropolitan city.

Well, to be fair they did mention several times that UV was doing very well after Gigi got the Plain White T's to perform. So I'm sure that upped his finances...plus the Buchanans gave him a boatload of money when they hire him to hunt down David Vickers.

Didn't Sarah convince the Plain White Ts to perform as a favor to Rex, who knew they were Gigi's favorite band?

And are you meaning that Rex reacquired this loft after getting his finances back together?

OLTL shouldn't have to work this hard at building obstacles for couples. It's just awkward.

I don't know....I'm sure Rex just kept the loft the entire time. It's not like he had to pay for Gigi's rent or anything. After all, it is Viki's property and I'm sure that she pays all the bills.

I don't remember the Sarah part about that. But it seems like Rex was thanking someone for playing at UV, because it helped bring in the bucks....maybe I am thinking of another group instead of the T's.

I do remember that UV was supposedly flush after the Ts performed, but I seemed to recall Rex called in a favor with off-screen Sarah, through her music connections, to give Gigi this surprise gift of their performance.

But the issue that still doesn't work, since Cheap brought it up, was if he kept this loft while he couldn't afford a video game and all his credit cards were maxed out and being declined left and right, why wouldn't he just give up the loft since he was living with Gigi and free up the money he was using the pay rent on a space he wasn't using or planning to use again?

And how did Stacy's Stripper Pimp even find her there, if Rex hasn't used the place in months and he didn't even really know who Rex was?!

Well, that's what happens when you advertise on every men's room wall in town. "For a good time, call Stacy! Fourteen million horny sailors on shore leave CAN'T be wrong!"

For that matter...

How did Roxy have the sense to print out an instruction manuel for unhooking the life support machine? How was John McBain able to just walk out of jail without a security camera or guard seeing him? How is it a conflict of interest for Rachel to be Cole's counselor, when it wasn't for Nora to prosecute him? How did Marcie get her teaching lincense back? How was Schuyler able to stroll out of the hospital with a bag of Stacy's blood? Why are Starr and Cole not even in school? How were Markko and Langston able to chat online while at school? Why did Gigi just let Shane walk away after he basically called her a slut, and why didn't she ask him about school? And how is Cole able to just walk in and out of rehab as he pleases?

Too many questions....not enough answers.

    • When the announcement was first made, I did wonder if other plans were in the works. I guess we can always keep hoping, especially as the show has a small core cast.
    • @chrismlAbout Lisa, agree to disagree. Actually at the time she was the only thing my partner & I disagreed about. Naturally she was Team Vicky while I was steadfast as Team Lisa.  About John & twin paternity, I think that like the 3 pillows was a transitory idea someone had that no one else agreed with. More of the attempt to accommodate Philece. About MJ, co-sign, 100% agree, if there were more degrees I would claim them. About Wally & Felicia, always a fan. Mitch? Eh, take or leave. Although I do agree that WGE is a really striking man. Who have I left out? I don't know so that's all I got.

    • Dallas peaked early, IMO. Maybe not a fair statement as I’m still making my way through the first half of its run, but I think it’s hard to argue to point that S3 into S4 was its high point. Back to Knots. Wrapping up “And Never Brought to Mind.” Greg’s introduction kinda took me by surprise. I low-key dreaded his arrival bc I know he very quickly gets to the center of the show, but even though they wasted no time connecting him with Mac, Abby, Gary, and Karen, it still feels like a gradual intro. The juxtaposition of the ending of the Chip story with the heating up Abby’s plotting is quite symbolic of the changes the show was going through. I absolutely cannot imagine Kenny and Ginger having any part in any of this. Yall, the Gary/Val piano theme that they pull out from time to time is my FAVORITE. I find myself humming it constantly.
    • Bloodshed is inevitable now. It’s another reason I’m glad Black people aren’t getting involved in these protests. As awful as this is, I keep reminding myself that 54 percent of Latino men voted for Trump. These people were put in harm’s way by members of their own communities and sometimes even members of their own families. Too many people decided to touch the stove.
    • Maybe I'm still in denial, but nothing about Neighbours' ongoing social media output gives the vibe of a show that's ending. In today's 'Roundup' video, Alan Fletcher referenced that production finishes in five weeks, but in all the show's posts the cast are as jovial and lighthearted as ever. Remarkably so for people who are about to lose their jobs.    Perhaps they're just putting a brave face on things, and I know they approached the previous axing with a positive attitude. Maybe putting an upbeat face on things is a collective way of showing potential backers that there's still life in the show? Or is it possible that they already know the show has been saved, and we'll get an announcement next month when filming wraps and the show 'rests'?   Does any of that make sense?!
    • A very good week for male eye candy on GH. New Michael is beautiful, Curtis's arms looked great in that polo shirt, Cody looks even more handsome with his new haircut AND we got Marco in swim shorts rocking his lovely bod and chest fur.

    • Yeah when Jamey Giddens did breakdowns for DAYS, he would sometimes state in tweets that specific things were his idea that he had pitched to Ron.
    • I don't, since they've clearly incorporated them into Tomas' storyline, and I happen to like his tattoos, but his jackets not fitting doesn't mean they're trying to cover his tattoos. The clothing overall isn't the issue; it's the fit. And I expect(ed) more from Jeresa Featherstone and her team. Very disappointed. He's the only male, overall, whose costume irritates me.
    • "And OMG, watching the scenes of Roger's return in comparison...the quality in the writing really nosedived. The stupid mask." Very much agreed.  Having Roger hide behind a mask for weeks/months, with it culminating with him swinging in on a vine at Blake/Phillip's wedding....geez.  So juvenile. IMO, Guiding Light never did a good job reintroducing major characters, either from the dead or elsewhere.  Masked balls = awful.  Amish = awful. When Reva was brought back from the dead, she should've just showed up in Springfield as Reva, and informed everyone that she had been gone for years because she felt like it.  She had a four-year fling with some dude who ended up dumping her due to disloyalty. Josh would be pissed and declare that their love is not *always* but *sometimes* and he'd act accordingly.  Her kids would hate her.
