Wow...now that was a fabulous show.

The scenes with ES and BW rocked the house. It was just such raw emotion and had me crying my eyes out.

Loved the scenes between Clint and Natalie.

I really am liking Gigi and Skylar together.

Charlie and Brody, very good friendship there developing.

Rex/Stacy blah

Can't wait to see more of Viki/Jess tomorrow.

Erika Slezak owns OLTL. Today was just more evidence. All it does though is makes me wonder what in the (^%&^&*^ blazes this show is doing not giving story to their powerhouses like La Slezak. Goodness. If they even devoted 1/10th of the teen time to give Viki story wouldn't that alone be something positive for this show? Instead we get strippers, smackings, whinings and new character after new character with tons more coming. Ugh.

Erika Slezak owns OLTL no matter how much Frons wants to take that away from her. Without Viki there wouldn't even be a show.

Oh and I love Brian Kerwin's scenes with Mark Lawson. Really nice changes, heck I didn't even mind Clint today with Natal :P ie.

IA with just about everything, except for the crying part. I almost cried. Bree wasn't annoying when she cried this time, although I personally would've done without the absolutely perfect memory of her losing her child. Not because it was too emotional to watch but because it didn't seem realistic to me.

I know anything is possible on OLTL but that was too literal. I would've liked to have seen something more symbolic than that, and it would've been more potent. I mean, now that Jessica's back in reality facing her memory for the first time, why not hold Chloe to her chest and recite the flashes of memory and when she's done, she'd hold her up and finally see her as Hope, only to hold her tighter after realizing the truth?

By the way, with all that screaming, how the hell wasn't Chloe crying her lungs off, cranky and fussy as a baby usually is? It was way too quiet in that room.

Wow, Viki/Jessica = incredible.

Erika and Bree knocked that out of the park. I was on the verge of tears when Jessica announced the words she was dreading to say - My baby is dead.

And Erika..they should never even THINK of releasing/recurring/dropping her. Ever. She's the best they have on there and I hope today proved it.

Congratulations and Bravo to Erika Slezak and Bree Williamson for their outstanding performances yesterday. By the end of the episode they had me in tears. If only Bree could play her roles with this kind of subtlety everyday. What really surprised me was Bree's ability to show Jessica's struggles and emotions through her physical appearance. When Vicki was fighting to free Jessica from her trapped mined Bree was quite and she physically began to perspire and shake yet she did so with control, no screaming or over the top campyness. It's was also nice to see Clint and Natalie support each other and Brody and Charlie have the makings for great friendship. Overall, a great episode.

Rachael & Shaun :wub:

Ugh, Destiny <_< Someone get this girl some acting lessons

And I'm so sick of Starr & Cole talking about their "bebe" :rolleyes:

Rex is such a dumbass. I hope when all the s.hit Stacy's done comes out, Gigi tells him to kiss her grits and gets with Sky.

    • I don't really care about what the men are wearing, or not wearing.   What I care about is focusing on the writing and character development for each of the male characters. Andre really doesn't have a lot of character development that sets him apart from the other male characters except that he seems content to be degraded and mistreated by the elitist Dani.  I would like to know why a good looking younger guy like Andre would willingly be at the mercy of an emotional vampire such as Dani.   Martin, on the other hand, seems to have decent character development.. and it is partly due to how the actor chooses to recite his lines.  Martin was raised in a very privileged household and probably went to the best schools... so it makes sense that he would come across as thinking he was above everyone else.  Most people raised in a upper class situation as the Duprees would view themselves as better than others (it's the same trait Dani seems to employ on those she feels superior to). It makes me wonder how Nicole came out of that family being so warm and nurturing  when her family dynamics seemed very appearance oriented.    
    • I know, right. I after just re-reading the thread, I'm like ooppph!
    • Lulu and Dante were divorced before her coma, but she was still in love with him.  He just didn't know.  They haven't been married for years.    I was pretty mixed about Lulu getting involved when it was just a child out there in the world, but now that she realizes it's Gio I am okay with her telling Dante.  It also is her son's sibling.  I still think it's BLQ's choice though.  Lulu is in a rough spot because I think Dante will be mad if she keeps it a secret and Chase, Brook, Lois, etc will be mad if Lulu tells. Without veering too far into the classic area of the show, I had no problem with Robin telling AJ about Michael.  It may not have *exactly* been her place, but she could see how Carly was manipulating the entire situation.  It also ruined her romantic relationship with Jason for good.  Jason and Sonny were furious with Robin and practically ran her out of town, so I think we were to believe she was the bad guy.  It was a bit out of character for Robin to spill, but KMc was leaving the show.
    • Rewatching/binging THE X-FILES Seasons 1 and 2 (almost done). So much fun re-experiencing, especially re-discovering some of the monster-of-the-week stories. THE WEST WING Seasons 1 and 2 as well - so good to rewatch now with 20 years more life experience and understanding. ALSO.... lol FOOTBALLERS' WIVES Season 3, which is just as bonkers as I remember and so so so so fun. I had forgotten about that iconic season cliffhanger. Good times. Excited to rewatch Seasons 4 and 5 since I remember so very little about them. Hope you've been enjoying!
    • @Toups Tyler Topits listed in alpha order with the breakdown writers 5/12 Monday episode. O'Connor still listed as both breakdown and script writer. Kreizman wrote today's script.
    • Marland was long gone by this point.  He quit in either August/September 1982. I think it was due to letting the actress play out her contract and use her for party scenes and/or scenes with Phillip/Justin.   I was surprised she was still on in June 1983 myself, because I figured she had been written out before Pam Long joined the writing staff. Thankfully, having episodes uploaded during this period on Spauldingfield YT site has helped to connect some of the dots.  It looks as though Pam Long starts the first week or so of May 1983.. and in those first few weeks: Morgan and Evie were both written off and Lillian/Mindy/Billy/Beth/Annabelle all come onto the show.
