I've been going back and forth with that, that's why I broke and just threw uncle out there in the OLTL thread. Having him be the dad is the clunkiest storytelling that ever clunked (how many aliases does dude have??). But Ford's reaction to him was telling, and for real, is poor wittle Ford that under Daddy's thumb?? The man beat you within an inch of your life! Again, bad storytelling, and Ford is suddenly yet another innocent victim of a DADD (Despicable ABC Daytime Daddy).

I think he looks late 20s, but facially, Ford has an older look to me.

When they were trying to sell the Di/Dixie story on AMC, Kelli Giddish is about half a year younger than Jacob Young.

Agreed. I predict that they will be prominently cited in the future articles about OLTL's final blows leading to cancellation. I hate to even say such a thing, but I can see that. Why should these three brothers get to eat such a chunk of show, that just cannot happen, they do not deserve to dominate the youth scene with even Cole as an acccessory, Matthew probably all but forgotten. To me, this seems like a very concerted effort to create an instantly successful group of young male leads, specifically appealing to the teen girl fans. Making them all related, a family :rolleyes: , supposedly appeals to more traditional minded soap fans and supposedly makes us take them more seriously as they don't fall into the category of the parade of random young guys who have breezed in and out of town every summer for the past decade. They're going for a Vega thing here.

It is bullshit. What the hell has Ford done to deserve a family? He is hot and all, but COME ON!

Ron Carlivati just continues to disappoint me :(

The Ford Brothers are about to be shoved down our throats while guys like Ross, Sky, Nash, and Jared were either made psycho or killed off. <_<

    • BY FAR the weakest episode of the past week+. -- Even a change in writers cannot make Leo work as a character. Dialing back on his personality isn't enough -- he's still insufferable. Every scene he was in reminded me of why I grew to hate Carlivati. -- Chad couldn't make a longer obituary on John a go with a single phone call? So stupid. -- Jack and Jennifer should have called in their regrets the way Hallmark Sami did. I got nothing from them today and felt nothing. -- Jack slobbering the praise on Leo for his work at the paper was pathetic.

    • I was relieved to get a respite from the heavy John/Bo material today. Like previously mentioned, it really let us come up for air and breathe a bit, and good beats regarding John were still in play to keep that thoroughline going.  Peter Reckell was fantastic on yesterday's episode. I was worried Bo would be told about Victor and Doug off-screen, so though my heart was fully breaking for him, I'm really happy we got to see him react to their passings. How strange that both his fathers died in a plane crash, I'm surprised they didn't have a line about it, but maybe it would have been to clunky to include. Cat/Tate were a fresh interaction. Why would she "feel" like she knows Sami. It reminded me of when Carrie "felt" like she knew EJ when he first came to town as EJ Wells, where he should have turned out to be a long lost Tony/Anna kid, but then all the mess we got happened instead. With that and her mysterious call, colour me intrigued. I am going to confess something I am almost ashamed to admit ... I like the Jack/Leo scene! However, in my defense, it got very genuine between them and those historical references used about Diana, Duke, and Leo's past with John were all very strong beats to play for me, and most importantly it Leo's responses were kept to a minimum. But by God, those pants he was wearing made him look deranged. Also, shout out to Melissa Reeves, who came back effortlessly yet again. I can't wait to see her confront Chad about letting Cat into his life. And SSH shouting "SKYDIVING" was hilarious.

       I also feel like we’ve honored her lately with the synopses that keep coming in! Just wish we had more clips! Maybe someday! 
    • Of course Donna somehow missed Laura Wright’s moles for 20 years.
    • Today's Lucky and Liz scenes were horrible. There really is no way to explain Lucky's character. Not that anyone cared though. It looked like everyone involved just gave up, and that JJ couldn't get out of there fast enough.  Also, why is Sonny on every single day? Most of his appearances are so pointless. Can they not rest the character, even for a few days?
    • I agree.  She has become ridiculous, and simply not a believable character.  She needs to tone it down, or get to jail as quickly as possible.   I completely agree.  A bit of an Upstairs, Downstairs vibe is really all BTG is missing.  
    • Aimless. That's a good way to put it. As far as killing Drew, I really want Porsha to do it, but they somehow get her off. 
    • They can't afford to use the hospital set -- that's what I'm guessing.  Poor Cole will probably die on Victoria's couch, and never be in the hospital.  Jeeze-Louise!!
