Predicting OLTL's Demise....why?


Recommended Posts

I'm with you, CarlID. It's the 'who's staying' that's worse than 'who's going' for me. I'm all for saving the 'vets', but when Stacy died, I think the writers should have gotten rid of the Morasco storyline all together. It's time for Gigi, who has a renewed love for her sister, to find out how screwed up Stacy was when she realizes that her parents are alive and she and Shane decide to go visit... Rex joins them - they decide to stay and rebuild their family. KISH stays. Sierra Rose goes to visit her family but stays with her fathers in LLanview.

Todd takes Tea and Daniella on a world tour (with Jack and Sam joining them on school breaks).

Mitch and Allison end up in a supermax prison... no escape for them.

I don't understand why the writers brought Marty back other than the rape-as-romance storyline. She rarely interacts with Cole, and has almost no storyline. Her

should cause a lot of guilt and John should wake up, realize he loves her, and they move on somewhere else they can start their lives over. Either that or John leaves and Marty and Brody get together.

If I never see or hear about Starr, Cole, Markko, Langston, and Ford again, it will be too soon. All can go away. Starr and Cole and go live to be closer to Marty and John if they go.

Dorian and Charlie actually intrigue me as a potential couple. Clint and Viki. Bo and Nora. Kevin and Kelly vs Blair and Eli over financial control over the publishing industries. Oliver and Kyle. Christian and Layla (who befriend Schuyler and Rachel - and eventually form a 'quadrangle' until Shaun steals Rachel back?). Natalie and Jessica battle over BE and becoming the new face of corporate intrigue on this show. They join Clint, Bo, and Nora in protecting the company from a hostile outside takeover?

      Is this someone you should be dealing with? I got the drama on lock. Leave it to me. You are my sister. You have loved & protected me every moment I've been in this world. It's my turn to stand up for you.

    • I just watched it, it was decent, looking forward to Martin's secret. Glad to get info on why the children were aged up!
    • !!! I felt the same. Martin secret has always been my favorite storyline.  I happen to Andre's wardrobe but it ages him. They have a grandpa vibe.

      , Facts! I would like to see something like that in Daytime. Both of y'all can back up off my husband! Tomas couldn't shine his shoes.
    • Brandy was an odd mish-mash of a character. A radical during her college days, then a journalist/romance writer, I believe? But not so much of a radical that she had a problem chasing millionaire Alan, LOL. The actress, JoBeth Williams, went on to have a pretty good movie and prime time career.
    • Bill attempts to use Smitty to send a veiled thread to Martin.

      Thought I’d share this video featuring Cathy Carricaburu, now Foxhoven, who played Nancy Becker from 1976-1978.

      She talks a little about her acting career starting around the 6 minute mark and briefly mentions Y&R. I’d be interesting to see some of her work on Y&R since it seems to be her most notable role.
    • I believe Henry Slesar intended that the Paige/Nola plot would play out over three to six months and Paige would be the new younger ingenue; but a few things happened. Sharon Gabet didn't renew her contract and the audience didn't like the Paige/Brian romance as it flirted with incest. Kim Hunter revealed in an interview that she as slated for 3 months but Henry asked her to stay on for an additional period. I watched Edge during this period when it originally aired and Margaret Colin was not great in the role. She seemed very green among the vets as was the dude playing Brian. He was poorly cast which was unusual for Edge.  I think Henry started to get pressure from ABC and P&G to jazz up the show given what was exploding under Monty on GH at the time. I loved Kim as Nola and all the stories it generated for others. Miles and Deborah in particular. But the next who dunnit plot in this period was not one of Henry's best (at least for me the culprit and explanation were lame for Henry). 
    • Bill and the performer are the strongest male character and actor on this show.  Yeah, how I see it too. you pair your best young female with one of the weakest screams sabotage to me.  I like this idea, it doesn't make things too predictable. I would buy that!
