OLTL: Discussion for the week July 27

And that's exactly what happened. Gigi and Stacy talked in circles for six scenes, and every scene ended with a close-up of the pregnancy test print-out behind Stacy's back. And she kept saying "it'll all change when you find out what's on that piece of paper". And Gigi would say "So what's on that piece of paper?" And then in the next scene, Stacy would respond "I'll tell you what's on this piece of paper but it's going to rock your world". Gigi: "So tell me." Stacy: "Wouldn't you like me to... you're going to wish you never asked me that" Cut to commercial. Next scene: Gigi: "Are you going to tell me what's on that piece of paper? I need to get back to my child. Rex's child." Stacy: "Funny you should use those words. Because what's on this piece of paper is about Rex's child. And you're not going to like it." Close-up of piece of paper. Cut to commercial. When we get back, Gigi: "If you're not going to tell me what's on that piece of paper, I'll leave." Stacy: "Are you sure you want to know what's on this piece of paper?" Right around then, I stuck a fork in my jugular.

And so on and so on and so on until Rex walked in at the end and Stacy said "I'm pregnant". It was exhausting. I hate soap writing like that. But it's a personal preference.

While you're at it, could you please fork me too?

Gigi is stupid. It took her two whole acts and an opening sequence after Stacy said "I'm the mother of Rex's child" to realize that she's pregnant. Tsk tsk tsk. Just make it end already!

The stuff with Jess outside looked like something out of Dark Shadows.

Aaaahahahahha. *Gigi starts to weaze* Rex to Stacy: Get her some water!! Stacy: ...Excuse me?

That was hilarious.

That Bo and Nora kiss just made me lose my lunch. RSW needs to stop that!

Scott Clifton is wearing the hell out of those mesh shorts. Take 'em off, boy! And why is Rex wearing those Jack Tripper clothes? His bulge is screaming in those pants.

Very good show today. It's a shame that the Rex/Gigi/Stacy stuff had to be included, it just fit with what was going on at all with the show.

Loved the Clint/Viki scenes, it's great that after all they've been through that they are still friends. Felt bad for Charlie for a minute but I loved how Viki pulled him aside to make sure he was okay.

I don't understand the hype about Bo and Nora, but then I was never a fan of theirs. So their kiss did nothing for me, all it made me do is feel more sorry for Clint.

Asa would be so proud of Matthew, he sure is acting like his grandpa more and more every day.

My first thought: WTF, THE OLD LOLA OPENING AGAIN?! If it's not changed on Thursday... *mumbles obscenities*

Yeah, that was campy and fun.

VERY funny. Did anyone else think their hallway and staircase stuff was really eery looking? Those sets were haunting, which were obviously just part of the actual soundstage.

I like Bo and Nora! But wow, they kiss weirdly.

Yea, as a male, the Rex bulge is pretty obnoxious, especially the damn closeup.

Asa would be so proud of Matthew, he sure is acting like his grandpa more and more every day.

Unfortunately. I like Matthew and what a good guy he is!

I'm of two minds on the big Bo and Nora scene, which I've waited for for years. I thought both RSW and HBS sold the hell out of those scenes, which I was surprised by. RSW really put the moves on her. But I thought the kiss was awkward, perhaps intentionally because it's been so long for these two characters - yet they cut to the wide shot just as it was turning hot.

I loved the freaky alley. Eat your heart out, GL.

God, all the actors under 30 on this show are horrible, horrible. Those Gigi/Rex/Stacy scenes were hilariously awful.

Fath's really knocking it out of the park, huh? :D

I missed today's episode - but did we find out who Jessica mistook for Nash outside?

Eddie Alderson, Jason Tam, and Brittany (blanking on her last name) are OK. Even really good, sometimes. Even Brandon Buddy and Kristen Alderson have their moments.

The pits are FF/JPL/CH. JPL is the Cameron Mathison of this show. The worse he gets, the more airtime they give him.

Oh yeah. Bree Williamson better watch out! Farah seems to have mastered the whole "I. Can't. Breathe." routine. :rolleyes:

And today it was implied that Jess was probably just seeing things

God, there was an entire year at Days she did nothing but that routine. I know it well. My condolences to Llanview fans.

LOL. I usually find Bree and Farah very natural (mainly the comedic stuff for Farah), but yea, Farah and the lot were pretty bad today.

LMFAO about the Cameron comment! SO true! :lol:

And yea, word's still out on who's stalking poor Jessica.

You know, I think Gigi is the most innocent out of that horrid triangle. Sure she lied to Rex, but she did it out of love and concern for her son. She truly would do anything and everything to protect him.

Stacy is just plain nuts and Rex is an a**hole.

I agree about Jason Tam and Brittany Underwood, but Buddy and the Alderson's? Still horrible IMO, but you can tell they're at least trying.

And JPL wasn't this bad a couple of years ago, FF must be giving him acting lessons or something.

OR ever since they started dating in real life, they've stopped caring about the scripts and basically act like themselves with the names "Rex" and "Gigi" attached and just care about seeing their love at work every day.

LOL...I just watched the end of today's episode and was coming to post that JPL has clearly been studying at the Cameron Mathison School of Constipated Acting. "DON'T!"

God, I weep at the state of soaps these days.
