OLTL: Discussion for the week February 1


Recommended Posts

I don't know if I can watch anything with her ever again. Bree has never been one of my favorite actresses but I have still maintained some fondness for the Jessica character, especially when they rebuilt her relationship with Natalie and put her with Brody. But this is just unbearable, and I'm not sure what it says of their opinion of the character that they would do this. :(

Yeah to stretch out the E Shock ALL episode was just too much IMHO. It was campy, we all knew Jessica's russe would be discovered, and so if they had to do this storyline I think it owulda been in better taste to just get the torture scene over with. Do we need comments baout her choking, the eyes fluttering, all this? Is Dena Higley ghost writin this crap?

John's mistake made ZERO sense to me. He even TURNED HIS HEAD to wink full out to Marty while the whole court was hovering over his body--no one saw that? Awful awful awful awful awful awful awful awful awful.

Don't get me started on Charlie and Dorian spending an eternally discussing stuff we've already heard in Rex's apartment, and the whole baby mess (oh and is it already valentine's day there? Since Gigi went up to the cottage? Does this mean we should expect Valentine's day to last a full two weeks? How come I'm suddenly feeling nostalgic for Michael Malone's self conscious special Valentine's Day eps?)

It make sense to me that Charlie would be teaming up with Dorian - he's desperate and wants revenge on Mitch. He's full of grief and clealy not thinking straight.

Instead of the electric shock, I would've prefered brain washing. Seeing Jessica convulse like that was a bit much.

Yeah I just find it boderline bad taste--especially since it is being used for such a campy story (but I've also been doing a lot of work recently with the resurgence in popularity of electro shock therapy--I wonder what its advocates like Carrie Fisher would say about it being used as a Frankenstein sci fi torture device).

HAHA No I don't think she has though maybe some would think it'd help ; Carrie F talks a lot about it in her new one woman show Wishful Drinking--she goes in for sessions at least once a month and says it's one of the few things (combined with talk therapy) that has actually helped but she does say it's done weird things to her memory, she blanks out on certain words more often.

Oh and one more thing about today's episode--I never want to see another episode (I think this was the third) that opens, or even has, Blair SEXTING someone. UGH. And if Elijah is gonna be useless and half naked so much he needs to quit waxing.
