Frons & Co. are fooling themselves if they think that they can save OLTL by firing those supporting actors. OLTL is a sewer filled with bad actors and stories. I can't begin to consider a way out for that soap to avoid cancellation in a year or two. Good luck to them.

They'll be there without the baby, then people will love them again! They will travel back to 1952, where they learn Victor was working with Communists, and where Gigi, as Anna Wolek, has to avoid Victor's rape attempts. Rex, as Asa Buchanan, travels from Texas to save her. Their night of passion leads to the birth of...Delphina!

Perhaps my answer to your question, "I don't remember", is the best explanation for OLTL's ratings. I do know this Monday's episode started out with Marty, who looks like she lives in a filthy Motel room, lying on her bed, alone, rubbing her stomach and saying "I'm having John's baby." I know the soaps love to use expositions, but that really took the cake. 1.7 rating, here we come!

Cady MClain popping up on a whem doesnt = ratings or bailing them out. A drop is a drop.

I watched last week but cant remember much either.

how so?? Thursday was their lowest and that was even a 2.0 and they almost have 3 million viewers. I think they are still in good shape.

Y&R has been really boring on Friday's (both for Canadians and US) and I think that is being reflected in the ratings. I wish it would drop more so that they will get rid of the hacks, not that they wouldn't just go and hire other used up hacks.

I actually do agree with te on this, I think the drop would have probably been a little bit more on par with the other soaps if it wasn't for Cady's return.

B&B, in theory, should be a demo darling. Fast paced, half-hour soap set in the world of fashion in self-absorbed Los Angeles. But Brad Bell is determined to keep this show cheap and dated in every way imaginable. It takes more than quick cuts, fast music, and montages to make a show hip.

B&B is in dire need of a visionary who can cut dinosaurs and make this show work. Brad's checked out.

    • The Duprees not having any staff is a bugbear for me. They've included the background staff at the Country Club but no one at the Dupree home. Even just an extra bringing in a tray of food/drinks or responding to a request from Anita would suffice.
    • Shut up, Dante and Lois.  I actually don't mind this particular soap trope, but in the context of this storyline, it just feels forced and unnecessary. If anything, this Dante/Gio tension needed to begin months ago. Plus, this storyline, in general, isn't doing Lois any favors either.  Emma comforting Gio was really sweet though. It's definitely time for the two of them to have their first kiss. And, Joss playing Secret Agent Barbie will just never work.
    • Note to makeup - Smitty’s eyebrows, bad clamshell look.

    • Okay I can buy that when Brook Lynn was a teen.  Now she knows the child is a boy one would think she'd be slightly suspicious.  Then again, Gio looks nothing like either of them so maybe not lol.
    • I've been behind & just got caught up & the last 3 days were amazing!
    • Yeah.  The hot, poor bad boy with a chip on his shoulder but with a heart of gold was a common soap trope in the 80s

    • That's been an issue with me... the lack of a cohesive 'Have Not' crowd that has focus other than Leslie/Eva.   I would beef up Jan, Mona, Laura, Joey, and few other male characters.. and not just be out to overthrow the Duprees.. but co-existing and broadening the scope of the show since the show is called Beyond the Gates. I think the set up the show has with everything revolving around the Duprees will become predictable especially if they always win.   It would be like Victor Newman on Y & R for 40+ years.. always winning, hardly ever losing.   With MVJ/Guza.. both trained under that mindset... I fear that will happen.   I've always heard from a performer that is playing a character like Leslie/Dana that you have to find the victim/hurt beneath the surface in order to play a villain/villainess... and I think that's why I enjoy watching her.. because she brings so much more to the part than what the writers put on the page.
    • I figure that was really hard for Dom to do. I completely GET why they wrote it the way they did but I wonder if it was necessary. Meanwhile I have 2 really icky ideas in my head. Drew is going to blame Tracy KNOWING it was not her. Dante is going to blame Lulu.  After that, everyone else is going to be mad at Lois.  Tracy is going to double down on wanting to get rid of Sonny. Sonny's going to be more dug in to stay because he now has a new descendant. 
    • I can actually buy Brook Lynn being so self-absorbed and incurious that she never thought to question why her mom and grandma were so attached to Gio.
