Zimmer to OLTL


Recommended Posts

Gotta get that Emmy one way or another. The episode where Kimmer first appears as all three characters will be appropriately titled after what she said in her last acceptance speech: "Here's to the Ladies Who Lunch." Sponsored by Olive Garden Unlimited Soups and Salads.

I also hear Kimmer(as Blair) will start calling TAWWWD "JOSH-WAH!"

OTOH, Kimmer will fit right into OLTL's unashamedly campy, vapid pool of actors and stories. I wonder who will come out on top of the scene chewing: Kimmer or Robin Strasser? Or will Slezak beat 'em both.

If they make dead-eyed, where's-my-check-who-cares TSJ play out a love story with Kim then that will be the most entertaining Todd story in years. :lol: I especially look forward to Nelson going on about how Techo/Eod are the new supercouple.

I am such a sucker for those old-fashioned music cues when they transition from one scene to another. In fact, the whole thing sucked me in. I didn't know what the hell was going on, but this is proof that all you need is some good sets, good actors and good writing and you've got yourself a show.

Frankly, Zimmer's weight will likely determine her future on OLTL. There are no overweight women to be found on any of ABCD's soaps, and overweight older women getting airtime is a definite no, no. If she still overweight, this will be a very short stint.

Miss Nellie will lap it up like a kitten with milk.

Miss Nellie: So, you have a history of getting your scene partner's d*cks hard. How do you do it?

Zimmer: These days, I gyrate onto their crotches like someone's waving a Nathan's Hot Dog around my mouth. I channel the hunger into my love scenes.

Miss Nellie: Tell me, who's is the biggest?

Zimmer: It's a tie between Nathan's and Pink's.

Now I have never really watched OLTL before, could never get into the ABC soaps myself but I might actually have to watch this. It'll be interesting to see if Zimmer and her character will end up weighing the show down or if she'll end up eating the show up.

Help! We tried to squeeze Zimmer into the opening credits, but they ripped!! Can we extend the opening credits by about 30 seconds to fit her in???

When are Slesak and/or Strassers contract/s up?! Does anyone think ABC cast her to ramp up a negotiation tactic to keep them from asking for more money? "If you leave, we already have a hammy, show-eating star ready to replace you!"?(Similar to Braeden/Will Russ?)

If only. OLTL sticks out like a sore thumb on the ABC lineup. I think if Frons is considering moving OLTL to CT or LA to accommodate better production values, I think he should go for it. ABC would have an all HD lineup and probably the best looking one.

    • And, to me it is a little bit hilarious that AW fans all over continue to refer to it as Egyptian Dust Recently elsewhere I've been running polls. When did you stop watching AW or What storyline caused you to stop watching AW. You may be interested to know that sticking it out till the bitter end is winning by a landslide. Next highest vote getter is - no surprise - Frankie's murder. So that covers like 60% & next 20%. Then the votes drop way down to 10% and well below but a wide array of reasons are given, including but not limited to  Justine Lumina Rachel having twins at her age, how ridiculous Mac's death the 90 minute show firing JC, George R & Dwyer Hmm, I know there are a few more, in the 1%-3% range but I cannot think of what they are. Sorry, my bad. Should have made notes but I didn't know I would be posting about it. LOL!!  
    • A kind angel has added both episodes to the vault (UK Diva TV broadcast version). 
    • Yes, I think that is the most likely situation.  TPTB were unhappy with the offer(s) they got from the tourism board in Finland, and decided the trip was going to be too expensive for P&G/NBC to finance alone.   I would also speculate a similar situation likely occurred a few years later with the planned location shoot in Egypt, which was also cancelled after the storyline had already started, and changed to Arizona.

    • In my usual account on my most used video hosting site with the video title  DAYS 1-8-15 Will & Paul Sex This is an edit I began when I was first teaching myself to edit & at that time I couldn't make it do what I wanted it to do. I pulled it up & finished it this morning. 
    • Or Megan is shot as retaliation for Dave's unpaid gambling debts...while Julie confesses she's the biological mother of Special Guest Star Barry Bostwick's little boy.
    • Finland seemed such an odd choice for a location shoot. ATWT went to Greece and later Spain while GL had Tenerife and there were others in that timeframe. But Finland not being a known tourist destination or offering the tropical/sunny atmosphere usually associated with location shoots seems off brand. Maybe they were negotiating a deal with a tourist association and it fell through.
    • I was talking about 1986, but the glimpses of 1982 are about the same. 
    • I skimmed some of the 1982 synopses; Steve was planning on an opening an office in Finland, and I think Jim went there as part of the preparation. That probably was a big issue; AW had already gone to San Diego that year, with Rachel/Steve/Mitch. And to upstate NY with Pete and Diana. I wonder if upstate was as expensive lol  AW in 1982 has always fascinated me, because of how messy it was 
    • That makes sense. What a messy time for the show. And any changes they made were mostly for the worse.
