Members dragonflies Posted September 23, 2009 Members Share Posted September 23, 2009 I do think OLTL is the best of the ABC soaps by far though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Vee Posted September 23, 2009 Members Share Posted September 23, 2009 I don't see Kish, Jared and Nat (and Charlie), or Brody going anywhere. They're all RC pet projects and good ones. I think it's more likely we'll see people like Clint, or Cris or Layla, or Stacy go recurring or leave. But in the end, I have no real concept of OLTL's budget and I hear FV does a good job with it, so this may come to very little cutting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Juliajms Posted September 23, 2009 Members Share Posted September 23, 2009 At first I didn't think it was probable that Nat/Jared would leave, but then I thought about how little they've been used over the last six months and their pathetic wedding. They are really being wasted, so I wouldn't exactly be shocked if they were sent to London. I hope it doesn't happen and they get a story soon, but I wonder. I can only pray Stacy leaves. Soon.

Members DRW50 Posted September 23, 2009 Members Share Posted September 23, 2009 I don't think Stacy will go anywhere. RC still has to go stump for her in print. The people he has to shill for, like Stacy, Todd, and Rex, I think those are the #1 in priorities for Frons. I can see Clint leaving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members tina m Posted September 23, 2009 Members Share Posted September 23, 2009 I've heard so much praise in regards to Gina T, I've never see her on OLTL! I really can't wait to see her as Kelly. Gotta give Heather Tom props though, I loved her on there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SFK Posted September 23, 2009 Members Share Posted September 23, 2009 Lord, I remember GT's first day as Kelly, hell, I remember reading in SOD that Dorian's niece Kelly Cramer was coming to the show... oh how the years go by. BUT, as good as she was on OLTL, the praise for GT didn't really start until Dinah. It'll be interesting to see what these years will bring to her Kelly. And Kelly is kind of in an in-between age group compared to the other ladies on the show. She's supposed to be a few years older than the Jessica/Natalie set, yet not as old as Blair/Marty. I think she'll end up with John, more strife for her and her cousin Blair. I think GT and FL will be dynamite if pitted against one another, moreso than FL and KD.

Members Juliajms Posted September 23, 2009 Members Share Posted September 23, 2009 That should work, since I think of Blair/Marty as mid 40's, GT as mid 30's and Nat/Jess and mid 20's. OLTL has need women in the 30 something age group for awhile now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted September 23, 2009 Members Share Posted September 23, 2009 I don't know if I want to see Blair and Kelly as rivals again, but I thought GT and KD were dynamite when they were rivals after Kelly killed Blair's baby. I don't know if the same will be true with GT and FL because Tea's main priority on the show is being Todd's woman, she usually has no real personality of her own. tina m, I don't think you missed very much for not seeing Gina on OLTL. The writing for Kelly was bad almost from start to finish, and Gina was very green as an actress. She was better on GL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ann_SS Posted September 23, 2009 Members Share Posted September 23, 2009 ITA. Blair against Kelly has more emotional resonance than Blair against Tea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members marceline Posted September 23, 2009 Members Share Posted September 23, 2009 Gina's fantastic. Too good for soaps IMO. GT could really be a game changer for OLTL. The return of Kelly makes me wonder if Tea/FL or Marty/SH will be leaving. FL was never supposed to be around this long and TSJ's contract is up in April. Perhaps TnT will ride off into the sunset. Also I could see the Kaye-Haskells getting tired of the bicoastal thing assuming that's really going to happen. I think Gina and Dan would be good together if they insist on pursuing Keke. (I never warmed up to that pairing.) Regardless, Blair is becoming more and more irrelevant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ann_SS Posted September 23, 2009 Members Share Posted September 23, 2009 I loved Kevin (Dan Gauthier) and Gina's Kelly, but I don't see OLTL bringing back Dan permanently right now anyway. This is blasphemy, but GH with all its flaws is the most watchable ABC soap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Heyou Posted September 23, 2009 Members Share Posted September 23, 2009 So glad to hear that GT is on her way back to Llanview! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members marceline Posted September 23, 2009 Members Share Posted September 23, 2009 I long ago wrote off the possibility of a long-term DG return for a lot of reasons. Even if the show had the sense to ask him back, IMO he's better off on the west coast. He's working and he doesn't have to deal with people who treated him like garbage.

Members dragonflies Posted September 23, 2009 Members Share Posted September 23, 2009 http://soapoperadige.../news/breaking/ Despite buzz that fan fave Gina Tognoni (ex-Dinah, GL) was in talks with Y&R and B&B, the actress will return to her popular OLTL role of Kelly Cramer next year. "I am excited to welcome the extremely talented Gina Tognoni back to the role that launched her daytime career," Executive Producer Frank Valentini shared in statement. "The role of Kelly is an important part of OLTL's history and Gina's portrayal as a member of the spirited Cramer family has always been a fan favorite. She is a friend and I am thrilled to be working with her once again." Tognoni begins taping in January. The actress portrayed Dorian's (Robin Strasser) feisty niece from 1995-2001, and briefly appeared in 2002. As for the character, last played by Heather Tom (Katie, B&B ), she departed Llanview in 2006 with husband Kevin and has supposedly been living in London with her son and his grandson, Zane. As previously reported, Dan Gauthier (ex-Kevin) is slated for a limited return as Kevin this fall. Their returns, however, will not coincide.

Members Vee Posted September 23, 2009 Members Share Posted September 23, 2009 It was ABC that treated Dan like garbage, and ABC that apparently won't let him come back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
