I enjoyed today's show, didn't see Stacy falling down the stairs coming at all.

Loved the Layla/Fish stuff.

Loved Cristian/Brody, Cristian finding the note.

Loved Viki/Charlie/Markko/Jessica all having dinner. Langston and Markko are too cute.

Loved Rex and Roxy's confrontation. I though Illene did quite well in her scenes.

I found Stacy/Gigi entertaining, but yeah the acting sucked.

The only thing I didn't like was Starr/Cole but that's always.

Rip off Y&R's story? I'm guessing that OLTL is miles ahead of Y&R in taping, I'd probably say they thought of it first, but OLTL seems to want to play this storyline out compared to Y&R ending it in one entire episode.

I can't remember the last time JPL gave a good performance. I still don't get why they decided to make him one of the leads. Everyone in this story is off, but Crystal Hunt has been shockingly bad on several occasions this week, especially when she laid on the fur coat. How do you manage to make that suck?

I REALLY liked the Fish/Layla scenes. Finally we're getting more definition and shading from Fish. Wonderful work from Scott Evans, and I also think Tika Sumpter has been very good in this story.

I am really loving this week's episodes so far. The dinner scenes at Llanfair were really sweet and I like that Brody and Christian met; the two of them needed a guy friend. I must say, I was REALLY impressed with Scott Evans and Tika Sumpter's performances today. Sumpter is a very talented actress.

Yea, he's not that great, but he's been ok lately. I actually thought Crystal did remarkably well yesterday. But of course, now that she's done having her breakdown, it's same old, same old.

Yeah, Tika and Scott were AMAZING. :) I really hope they give Scott a contract soon. He's on more than Brett, haha.

Oh man, now we're stuck with her for even longer! I was hoping she would leave. Damn Frons for loving the Morasco sisters! I'd rather see more of Jessica/Natalie.

I have to say I'm been enjoying this Fish/Kyle/Christian/Layla storyline too. It hasn't gone bad.....yet (hopefully it doesn't).

Does anyone else find it odd & a bit of a contradiction that Fish (who is so worried about acceptance, appearances and fitting in) is using LAYLA to be his beard? He would stand out and possibly face scorn with her too.

Yes indeed. Jess/Brody/Nat/Jared and Cristian/Layla/Fish/Kyle should be the bulk of the 20something storyline. I'm instantly drawn into their scenes, but Gigi/Rex/Stacy/Sky have just exhausted my brain. Or better yet, they've exhausted my eyes because I've been rolling them so damn much. Just extremely tired of them.

I don't understand why they need to demonize Markko's father for disapproving of teenage sex. He makes a lot more sense than Saint Viki, who was giving birth to Megan in a ditch alongside the road at Starr & Langston's age and should know better.

    • It seemed to be your intent. coming into a thread I started and making multiple posts saying my data was wrong. In the next paragraph you say "Of course, I was suspicious from the very first instance where what I saw & heard did not agree with what it should have.  I'm very glad to know why." That certainly didn't stop you from immediately saying the data was wrong, until I provided additional receipts. Why did you not check the daily episode guide (for instance, this one for the 1980's) I posted for the world to see for exactly this reason...to help confirm airdates: http://daytimeroyaltyonline.com/days-daily-summaries-1980-1989-t15361.html? That is what you should be checking BEFORE you make any posts in the future like this, trying to suggest something from my data is incorrect. You could have also messaged me and asked me why your dates weren't adding up with what the correct data is. I would have fast forwarded through that video you posted, spotted Roman and Hope and immediately have told you that was the 11/1/83 episode.
    • Jason, just let me say that it was not my intent to any way impugn any of your data  or research. I'm very sorry if it came out that way. Obviously the person I got these 4 November episodes from has mislabeled files, multiples, which I was certainly unaware of.  When I am editing it is all about what I see & hear. Later, I find time for greater reflection.  Of course, I was suspicious from the very first instance where what I saw & heard did not agree with what it should have.  I'm very glad to know why.  If you find you are no longer interested in the edit, that is fine. I have no ego in this. I did it only to share it.
    • I feel like Vernon and Anita need to not be hypocrites and try and take the heat off Bill in this case. It's clear that the family used him as a fixer and especially knowing he helped with Martin's situation, they need to either be quiet or support him. BTW...with Vanessa being in the hospital for food poisoning, am I the only one who thought Shanice was gonna say she's pregnant or had an STD? The only reason I say STD is because she hasn't had any memorable sex partners, but I definitely don't believe she just had food poisoning.
    • Yeah, I mean I know that the name still pertains. I just laugh at it not now being called Arizona Dust, but, I admit it simply does not have the same ring to it. Above, that is interesting that Arizona had already come up before the crisis. 
    • Leslie and her family are from Chicago? Anita's background also includes being a former Chi-Town native? Might they connect this and go somewhere with it?
    • Honestly who's to say Leslie even birthed Eva, I mean she's a liar, I wouldn't believe a word she says about Eva being Ted's(or hers)
    •   1. 11/1/83 cast/set list:  

      Please register in order to view this content

          The "11/2/83" video you posted of Ruth Buzzi's scenes includes Roman and Hope in them, meaning the video you posted is actually 11/1/83, since Roman and Hope aren't in 11/2/83.   2. The video you posted of "11/2/83" has scenes with Roman and Hope. As you can see from my cast/set list, Roman and Hope are not in the 11/2/83 episode (see above note):   4573...11/2/83: Cast: Mickey, Julie, Doug, Maggie, Neil, Don, Marie, Alex, Liz, Andre as Tony, Gwen, Chris, Eugene, Sandy, Letitia, Charlene, Mrs. Whiting, Wanda/Guard, Dave, Delia, Saleslady # 1, Saleslady # 2, Figure in Dark, Raven/animal, Cats/animals, Birds/animals.   2.  11/3/83 :My video collection starts with 11/4/83. so I don't have the 11/1/83 or 11/3/83 video, but in addition to the cast/set list for 11/3/83, here is also the parking clearance call sheet for that day, showing Ruth was not only in the cast/set list but did work that day:     They even had hired the animal trainer and all the animals for the day, so It's sort of a certainty that her scenes were not cut that day, or it would have been a big waste of the budget. 3. As for 11/7/83, I just fast-forwarded through that whole episode myself. Letitia is in it from start to finish. It's her big final episode where she is killed. She starts the episode saying "Eugene, are you there?" In the next act, Marlena shows up and meets Letitia's lion. Later in the episode, Letitia is killed by "Eugene" (the Salem Slasher in a Eugene mask).   So, as we can see from your own post, the 11/2/83 date you have listed on that video is incorrect, since Hope and Roman are in that video but not in the 11/2/83 episode.It seems the dates you have on all your early November 1983 episodes are incorrect.   When you post videos and suggest that my data is incorrect, do you not first compare who is in the scenes and see if that matches who is in the episode? You didn't do that with the "11/2/83" episode, which based on Roman and Hope being in it means that is actually 11/1/83. Best to do something like that first before suggesting my data and research is incorrect.
    • Within the Dupree family, I predict Vernon/Anita will be conflicted about what to do about Bill and his role in the whole Ted/Silk Press Sheila situation... especially since Bill knows where the particular bone about Martin is buried. Dani, Chelsea, and Naomi's reactions to what Bill possibly did isn't hard to guess.. but Hayley's reactions will be interesting to hear.  Especially given her recent pregnancy scare.. she might not be so much on Bill's side, or she'll totally surprise us and be totally on Bill's side.   Either way, I think Martin's secret will be the main focus in May sweeps.. with the fall out of the Eva secret playing out in the background... while the Joey/Vanessa/Doug thing continues to boil/develop.
