March 10, 201016 yr Member David Gregory?!? Isn't he "Ford"? How can any show let him go??? He needs to just show up once or twice a week, and wear a towel. Maybe act out Spartacus scenes with Cristian. They basically have already been doing just that (ok, not Spartacus) but I'm gonna assume you haven't seen him in the past few weeks on OLTL--his character is the worst kind of cliche.
March 10, 201016 yr Member Gigi, neutered Blair, Tea playing out the same "boo hoo, my suffering, I'm a tough lawyer, no really I am, wait, Todd wants to hit me again, hit me harder!" scripts she had 12 years ago, vapid Langston and Starr, John-crazed Natalie, passive Viki, increasingly isolated Marty. Nora is fine but her stories are mostly about Matthew. Dorian is fine, but she's always stuck in these stories where she has to do crazy things to keep the plot going. Forget hoping for a Megan, Gabrielle, or Tina. I'd even be thrilled with a Brenda McGillis or Sarah Gordon at this point. OLTL's portrayal of women is revolting but unfortunately they aren't alone. The whole genre has abandoned women. But that's a subject for another thread.
March 10, 201016 yr Member OLTL's portrayal of women is revolting but unfortunately they aren't alone. The whole genre has abandoned women. But that's a subject for another thread. It's definitely all of daytime, but OLTL is a sadder loss because this show has been so defined by women. Yeah there were the Buchanans, but they were about the women in their lives. And there was Todd, but even then, a lot of his stories were also about complicated women, at least until the past few years.
March 10, 201016 yr Member I saw the promo with Blair and Kelly fighting over Todd. I don't get it. Todd isn't with Tea any more? He is with Blair? And why would Kelly possibly want scummy Todd? Another return wasted.
March 10, 201016 yr Member And why would Kelly possibly want scummy Todd? Because, Todd's junk is made of dream, apparently.
March 10, 201016 yr Member BYE Sorry, wholly unnecessary character and this plot is just going in the wrong direction. It's not really his fault that he's forced to act with the most untalented person in the cast (Farah Fath) and tic-o-rama JPL. I saw the promo with Blair and Kelly fighting over Todd. I don't get it. Todd isn't with Tea any more? He is with Blair? And why would Kelly possibly want scummy Todd? Another return wasted. They're perfect for each other! Repugnant characters played by the coldest actors in daytime! I smell magic! Edited March 10, 201016 yr by Darn

Another return wasted. Tea and Todd are split up for the sake of their miracle child, Danielle, who hates Todd but is starting to warm to him. Blair and Todd aren't together but she still has feelings for him.
March 10, 201016 yr Member Tea and Todd are split up for the sake of their miracle child, Danielle, who hates Todd but is starting to warm to him. Because, you know, outrageously SORAS'ed teenagers have a difficult time adjusting to such things. ;-)
March 10, 201016 yr Member Danielle has enough trouble even saying her lines. Every single one of Kelly's love interests is either dead or practically dead, in terms of how relevant they are to the show these days. I hope she brings Todd the same luck.
March 10, 201016 yr Member That's why OLTL ratings have not been good. Letting REALLY good actors go and keeping bad actors on the show..... I hope Scott returns to GH. I really liked over at GH!!!

March 10, 201016 yr Author Member I'm hoping he returns to GH. OLTL screwed up. I hope they write him off with Rachel. I hope so. I guess they didn't want to write a Rachel/Schuyler romance in fear of reducing Gigi and Rex's airtime.
March 10, 201016 yr Member They basically have already been doing just that (ok, not Spartacus) but I'm gonna assume you haven't seen him in the past few weeks on OLTL--his character is the worst kind of cliche. I have seen clips on youtube. He can be any kind of cliche he wants if he works that hard at his body. Soaps need a few guys whose idea of honing their craft is hitting the gym 2 hours a day. His would not be the character I watch for great acting or writing and when you think of some of the flabbies and lardos passing for soap hunks these days (Jacob Young, Tyler Christopher as two examples) people like this guy and Brandon Beemer deserve our respect for making the soaps good at least on the most shallow of levels. He doesn't really have to do much more than that, just speak english. Just think about it, now that Adrian Bellani is off soaps, did it improve daytime in the slightest? He had no talent, but talent wasn't why he was on TV.

March 10, 201016 yr Member Call me crazy, but I saw the potential for a Schuyler/Kyle/Fish triangle in the future. I thought Claywell and Clifton had excellent chemistry in the scenes following the paternity reveal.
