Discussion for the week November 30

I love that I am finally excited to see what is going to happen on my favorite soap opera. This November has been so good, can't wait to see where it all goes from here.

I agree. Out of the 3 shows I watch OLTL is the best.

I wish Rex would get fired, and gigi. They do nothing for me

Ron needs to beg Dan Gauthier to sign a contract.

The "reveal" of Bo/Nora to Kevin was ridiculously and shoddily handled. Very poor execution. David just "blurts" it out? For no reason? And Kevin just happens to be there? And hears it? And assumes that he means that Bo and Nora are doing it?

REALLY ELIJAH?!

REALLY?!

I'm back to cringing at David scenes.

Matthew/Danielle don't do much for me. I just don't buy anything with her.

Amen.

Kevin & David are :wub: :wub:

Brody needs to stop coddling Jessica.

I thought DG's stuffy nose voice could have used a bit more practice but I love having at least one of Viki's sons around. I may regret saying this someday, but I really dig the idea of parallel action going on at the Buchanan compound in London, I would like to see them continue to use this device. It could almost be another show, but unlike the Texas invasion on AW, or even Iris chilling with her friends in Saint-Tropez, we are familiar with all of the characters involved and there's a lot of s/l potential in those gaps where the Londoners aren't seen for a few months.

David did make me LOL with his, "I stopped listening at 'bad actor'..."

I don't see it as an invasion because we know everyone involved, aside from Nigel's doppleganger, who apparently exists so we can revive the old joke that British people = awful teeth. I haven't seen that since Mike Myers did it on SNL 20 years ago. The people from Mel's Diner, who are shoehorned into the show even though they are all dead weight (Gigi, Moe, Noelle), I think that's more of an invasion.

DeeeDee

Brody needs to stop coddling Jessica.

I think this is just the way she's always going to be, sadly. I can't remember the last time Jessica wasn't in need of some sort of special care.

If they were going to do the Grey Gardens parody with anyone I wish it had been her and Natalie.

Who dops by unannounced for a job interview at a potential boss' house? WTF???

Yeah, that was so out of order, the way she was talking about it with Stacy, I thought she had an appointment!

Wow Destiny seems to be getting worse--couldn't Valentini get a better performance from her? the way she giggled through her line about being sorry that Danni was gone...

I'm enjoying OLTL right now so I don't mean this to be a huge dig, but the show does a crap job at putting story recaps subtly into the dialogue--they're doing even worse than AMC right now.; The opening lines of almost every character today shoehorned the past storylines into their dialogue in way too obvious, even by soap standards, a fashion. And I can almost handle the camp Nigel cousin--OLTL has always had elements of this--but please stop having him do monologues to himself.

the girl is just bad and her acting is better suited for the 8th grade play, not a major soap opera. They need to just can her or recast bc its dreadful watching her read her line. She's not even mediocore; she's just terrible

I have to agree--I do get why many took to her at first--she has a natural likeability and it's nice seeing a different 'type' on a soap, but she's simply not cutting the mustard, and instead of improving I find her getting locked into her ways all the more. I forget the actual line but she was meant to be more or less hiding the fact from Matthew that she was secretly happy that Danni was out of the picture--instead the delivery was beyond obvious.
