Members Scotty Posted May 7, 2009 Author Members Share Posted May 7, 2009 Yes apparently..., just like it would for him to use RJ, Carlotta, Lindsay, Nigel, Renee, etc... However, Roxy sure gets plenty of airtime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DavidEvanSmith Posted May 7, 2009 Members Share Posted May 7, 2009 This mess has made me, for the first time, WANT to write a deliberately bad soap opera, in a serious way, to see if I could write bad soap opera as well as OLTL has been lately.

Members Khan Posted May 7, 2009 Members Share Posted May 7, 2009 I think JER beat you to that one, David. Remember PASSIONS? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted May 7, 2009 Members Share Posted May 7, 2009 I wouldn't put it past RC, though, to concoct some history of secret sexual abuse for Stacy, thus providing the means for at least one alter-ego (i.e., "Casey", the prissy, sexually repressed librarian).

Members DavidEvanSmith Posted May 7, 2009 Members Share Posted May 7, 2009 I refused to watch that, but I am thinking less supernatural, but more taking itself seriously, even though it's absolutely atrocious. The star-crossed couple that no one can stand. The precocious kid who is wearing that bald cap for the cancer story that's not quite convincing. The young ingenue who's dealing with problems WAY too complicated for a girl of 16. The 17 extraneous, un-connected characters suddenly driving plot (i.e. Kyle) The older vets handing out cookies that they didn't even make to above-mentioned characters. The multiple personalities. 60% of the roles portrayed by hammy, overacting, underwhelming performers who are fully taking advantage of every "moment". I'm starting to see it. It can be a regular SNL skit. It's weird, soaps have been bad to the point where I want to write a fiction that is BETTER and more befitting of what I think the show should be, but this is the first time a soap has been bad to the point I want to write a fiction to see if I could match how badly it's written.

Members DeeeDee Posted May 7, 2009 Members Share Posted May 7, 2009 Dorian is love but Addie should've been the one fighting Todd while Blair was in the hospital. Otherwise what was the point of making her well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Scotty Posted May 7, 2009 Author Members Share Posted May 7, 2009 But what is the point of much of anything that happens in Llanview these days? Everything is so disconnected and over the top that it just makes you shake your head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted May 7, 2009 Members Share Posted May 7, 2009 :lol: That is AWESOME. If you're willing to write it, David, I'll be more than enthused to read it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Scotty Posted May 7, 2009 Author Members Share Posted May 7, 2009 I dare anyone to name more than one or two things they really like on the show right now. My favorite is Markko and Langston. Other than that, it's just.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted May 7, 2009 Members Share Posted May 7, 2009 Brody's biceps, and Brody's six-pack. See? That's eight things right there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members MichaelGL Posted May 7, 2009 Members Share Posted May 7, 2009 The star crossed couple THAT SHARE THE SAME DREAM! If that doesn't make you want to root for them, then I don't know what will... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted May 7, 2009 Members Share Posted May 7, 2009 It makes me pull for Stacy to break them up permanently, actually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Vee Posted May 7, 2009 Members Share Posted May 7, 2009 It seems like James Reilly's ghost is writing the Stacy storyline at this point. It's that bad. All they were missing today was Gigi being stoned in the town square, while Jabberjaw Rex shouted "SLUT!" over and over. I like the couple but the characters have become terminally stupid. I still like Cole's rehab/the Bo, Nora, Matthew and Clint story, and I actually like some of the spoilers for the KAD killer story and the character-centric stuff coming up in the unlikeliest of places. I really enjoy Brody and Jessica and Jared and Natalie, too. But until the John, Stacy, etc. focus ends this show is not going to get back on a single right foot - it's only got half of one now.
