I do think the actors are great. I just do not care about kim or charlie AT ALL.

Exactly. These two should be arguing, stressed out, fighting.

I loved Cole & Rachel.

YES! I do love that they are a same sex couple who have a very soapy storyline that are in very soapy jobs.

I agree. Its why i love Brody. and watching him and Jess grow together as friends first in the crazy house was great.

Funny you mention Joe Riley. My grandmom was watching a bit of OLTL with me and seen a Brody/Jess scene and mentioned that Brody reminded her of Joe in some way.

:lol: Oh Eric...

When I see Lea DeLaria I always think of her hitting on Goldie Hawn in The First Wives Club, I've seen her sing before but I'm not well-versed in her NY cabaret career or anything.

It's pretty groundbreaking that FIVE gay characters in speaking roles appeared on a soap opera today.

I saw Peter Bartlett in a play called "Voices in the Dark" with Judith Ivey about, geesh, almost ten years ago. There was a talk back afterwards and *of course* I had to be the one to raise my hand and mention OLTL. He smiled and said it had been a nice steady gig that he enjoyed. He was pretty fabulous IRL, as my friend (an actor who is also pretty fabulous himself) remarked.

Off topic but my New Yorker friend (as we all refer to him) works with the part time actor who plays Val on AMC--who's also a noted drag performer...

I saw Lea in On the Town--she did an AWESOME I Can Cook Too, but even in that musical I thought she came off a bit butch to be seen as a romantic partner (the sailor she was after, though was played byt he gay redhead actor who plays, well the gay redhead on Modern Family now... so maybe it was that kinda show)

I agree with all 5 points! :)

I would love to see the Brody/Charlie connection again too.

Since OLTL is gaying everything, can I please get some hot lesbians (in a good story)? LOL Ever since "The L Word" went off the air, I got nothing now.

I meant to say this yesterday in response to Dorian/RS's wardrobe change during the last act, but I think it's official Dorian Lord is the best dressed character on daytime. Of course one of my all time outfits were the one she wore just before the BE takeover...gotta love Robin Strasser!

    • Correction, Chicago Hope 1994/95 was initially Thursday 9 pm, a CBS dead zone and head-to-head w/ Seinfeld. 1994/95 CBS Thursday 10 pm initially was Eye to Eye with Connie Chung. Later in the season CBS did a scheduling shift with Chicago Hope moving to Monday 10 pm, Eye to Eye with Connie Chung moving to Thursday 9 pm, and 48 Hours moving from Wednesday 10 pm to Thursday 10 pm.

    • A--I wish someone would post a better vid of the entire ball, as it must be out there. And B--nope. Evie is only in a small segment of the ball with Phillip, Rick and Mindy. She doesn't dance at all. Ross dances with Helena and Amanda. I'm not even sure why Evie is at the ball---Vanessa heartily disliked her. I did see that Billy actually asked Henry to introduce him to Vanessa, which I hadn't realized.
    • Honestly, they should've ordered more of 2000 Malibu Road for the 1992-93 midseason and aired it when Knots went on a break. That was probably their best shot.    Then of course they fumbled Central Park West by airing it in the 9PM slot instead of a 10PM slot where it would've been away from the Fox dramas. CPW got its best rating by airing randomly on a Sunday and when it was taken off the air for a "re-tooling", Party of Five's ratings actually had a spike, so clearly they were feeding off each other. But being a smaller network focused on a certain demographic, Fox could afford to be patient Party of Five, CBS couldn't... 
    • Agree on Bruce Gray as Owen; they needed to cast star power. He was too lightweight against Kim and he had no chemistry with Frances Fischer except more gay buddy or daddy figure.  I loved Nola and Eliot together though. Lee Godart should have been longer term.
    • Andre has the worst fashion of the males which is off putting for someone as fine as he is. His jackets and sweaters look dated and no vintage does not work for him
    • I don’t recall MSW having a toy line in the late 80’s or early 90’s like all those Saturday morning cartoons did LOL but thought this was cute when I saw it in a vintage toy store yesterday:

    • Copying and pasting pasting this here as to not to derail the KL thread lol Wow I forgot CBS actually did try multiple attempts to come up with a soapy replacement for Knots on Thursday nights in the 10/9 slots for the 93-94 season.   Angel Falls had promise but CBS didn’t give it a fair chance. Latham’s Second Chances got even worse ratings than Angel Falls and wasn’t given a second chance when the Northridge quake destroyed the show’s sets. One West Waikiki looked gorgeous but was a blink you missed it affair. Finally we got Hotel Malibu, a quasi follow-up to Second Chances that stayed as the summer replacement series it was. CBS switched gears and had Chicago Hope air in the slot…against ER. It made the Top 30 but obviously underperformed below expectations. CBS gave up, and gave us 48 Hours for years there. It wasn’t until the 2002-03 season when CBS finally produced a Top 20 show for that spot with Without A Trace against an aging ER.
