Oh please, the Melinda thing is just the latest in the line of "Oh look here, look at how much HISTORY we're using! Don't you just LOVE that?!" bullcrap that's supposed to turn your head from the rest of the [!@#$%^&*] on this show.

I feel like a flashy grandkid who neglected his estranged grandmother (World Turns) over the last few months to hang out with the hot new thing in town (One Life) while grandmother fell ill and was given ten months to live. Well, that ends now. Grandma, I'm comin' home!

Win.

Judging by the second "James Stenbeck microchip" story, I'd say it's time to take Grandma out back and shoot her.

At this point, I'd rather be with her rotting corpse than with the overblown bitch down the block, who is on her third "Ooooh Mitch Laurence is baaaad" story.

I don't understand how anyone can say this when OLTL is constantly regarded by fans and critics as the best soap currently on the air. It's the best!

"Constantly regarded by fans and critic as the best soap currently on the air"? Seriously? Have you bothered to read any of the other posts on this thread? Or any other OLTL thread on this board? What about the ratings-- do those count for anything?

I don't watch any other soaps and don't care which one is the best or worst; I never said OLTL was either. But I don't understand how anyone can't see all the problems the show is having.

+1

I have a feeling Ford is quickly becoming the new Stacy Morasco. ;-)

Yep, Ford is looking like the latest homewrecker in the making but he'd better be careful or he's the next one on ICE! On another interesting note, Ford seems gay to me, I don't know why, but he does.

I don't watch OLTL so I'm confused. How can Clint and Kim get custody of the baby if they are not related biologically? People still don't know Fish is the father?

I'm not a lawyer or anything but I would think that Fish is the only one who has any real claim to this child. She's HIS daughter! Gigi, Rex, Kim, and Sky can duke it out amongst themselves but Fish is Sierra's father. No doubt someone will try and bring up Fish's sexuality to thwart his connection to his baby.

Does anyone else get a creepy vibe from Ford? I think he's going to turn out to be a pedophile/rapist creep. There's something seedy about him underneath those tight black undies...

MELINDA

1) I started watching OLTL in 91 and don't really know much about this character. Truth be told, I thought she was dead already. However, I read some spoilers that Andrew and Cassie visit Dorian to tell her about the death of a loved one but Dorian is suspicious. It seems like maybe Melinda doesn't really die. I don't know. I'm happy Cassie won't die and that this brings Kelly back to town. (Still, Langston could have died and I would have loved it)

SIERRA ROSE

1) We don't know who the father is. It may NOT be Oliver. If the paternity of the father is unknown, Gigi is the next one in line to get custody of the baby (maternal aunt). However, if Kim wants the baby and can show that Gigi and Stacy had an estranged relationship, that Stacy asked Kim to care for Sierra Rose is anything happened to Stacy, and that because she is single, living in a guest house, and has a son to care for already that Gigi having custody of another child is not in the child's best interests, Kim could get custody if she's married to Clint. Still, Rex, Schuyler, or Oliver - one of them HAS TO BE the father. I don't know. (BTW, I hate the fact that Rex calls Gigi "jeejee".

FORD

1) Character wise, definitely the next Stacy, but so damn cute. More scenes of Ford and Cristian working out at the gym!

Lastly, Markko, Langston, Schuyler, Greg, Gigi, Cole, and Brody can all leave the show. Useless.

At this point, I'd rather be with her rotting corpse than with the overblown bitch down the block, who is on her third "Ooooh Mitch Laurence is baaaad" story.

Bad guys are bad guys, but making a joke of Anthony Herrera and going all-out sci-fi is forever.

Ford could probably be decent if they detached him from the Markko/Langston kiddy pool, stop having him associate with generic no-names like Cristian/Layla/Fish, and revealed him to be a Lord nephew or cousin.  He seems like a passable enough actor, who could probably play dark, just make him related to someone worth caring about.

Bad guys are bad guys, but making a joke of Anthony Herrera and going all-out sci-fi is forever.

Making a joke out of Anthony Herrera? James Stenbeck is a character. Anthony Herrera is the actor who plays him. And besides, I know the storyline is crap. It's been crap since day one. It's been crap since the day Pelphrey was hired. But the point is, in MY opinion, if ATWT is crap on a cracker, then OLTL is double-stuffed.

And...uh..."all out sci-fi"?

Oh, and this. This right here. I love this. If there isn't anything seedy under those undies, I would feel very deceived.

Does anyone else get a creepy vibe from Ford? I think he's going to turn out to be a pedophile/rapist creep.

He will either be the next Stacy Morasco (as someone else posted), and be a nasty homewrecker. OR, he will end up being the killer in Llanviews next mass serial killing (come on...We all know it will happen eventually.)

those are about the only two storylines I see happening for this guy.
