Possible OLTL Storyline?


Recommended Posts

  • Members

First, my apologies if anyone else has already posted this/discussed this topic. Based on the way the show is writing Eddie Ford - and the December PreVUE that there is a murderer in Llanview - I think it's fairly clear that the show is setting up a murder mystery. And the way they are forcing Eddie into everyone's lives - without even attempting to give the character ONE redeeming quality - I think they're aiming for the "everyone's a suspect" angle.

Personally, I was looking forward to Eddie's arrival but he has been very one dimensional. I also know John Wesley Shipp is a veteran actor, has won two Emmys, has been in primetime, but I'm not digging his acting on OLTL. I'm happy he won't be staying long but not sure how I feel about a murder myster surrounding his character.

Plus, I'm just gonna go out on a limb and say Matthew did it!

It will probably end up being Marty- he'll probably try to rape her, and she'll just completely lose it. :rolleyes:

She's not really in this story, but she's close enough to Starr/Todd/James now that it's possible she could be pulled in. I don't want her to be written into a corner but they're really not leaving her much room! Attacking Starr today?!? Crazy.

It'll be Echo who kills Eddie, because he threatened to reveal she isn't Rex's bio mom (and Clint isn't his bio dad). Because, you know, it's all about Rex and his never-ending (and I do mean "never-ending") quest to find his real family. :rolleyes:

Oh, I'm a bit behind (only seen Tuesday's episode) so I didn't know Marty attacked Starr. On a personal level, I say great. I don't like Starr. But I do know what you mean about writing her into a corner. Honestly, unless they bring a love interest on the show for her (Patrick? Cutter?), there is very little for her to do.

    • I'll miss him too (still can't believe those were actual publicity photos - Joe Breen must have had a coronary), but he won't be gone forever.  Rauch did well at making people feel they were important (as long as they were willing to play along). That's probably why Erika Slezak loved him (he also gave her better story than he gave Zimmer). I think Kim has a certain amount of self-awareness but also needed to feel like she was the big star and desperately needed by the show. Wheeler was clearly incapable of expressing that. 
    • Nicole has 2 assistants but no one else gets any staff (that we see). Are Dani and Hayley fixing meals and clearing blocked drains? I think they need to establish that they have some assistance. Vernon and Anita need to have a visible housekeeper. Give the Duprees some help!
    • . Her husband posted the following message: "The love of my life. The brightness in my life which is now so dimmer. In April I lost you and I miss you so much and I hope you are at peace. Lost Pam due to things beyond what was going on in her life. The original Peggy Brooks on The Young and the Restless and many more shows and commercials and then the creator of Chocolate Fortunes. So beautiful and a hell of a sense of humor. Great laugh, Great smile and Great compassion. You are my sidekick forever. Will miss you and all your sharp barbs. The angels are with you my beautiful angel. Fly safe and be happy. Much love and kisses forever."

    • I grew up in a neighborhood behind the gates and it really wasn't uncommon to have your house unlocked. In my neighborhood there was an armed gate before you enter the neighborhood and you have security patrolling 24/7. One thing that was common when I was in high school were for the kids whose parents were real estate agents to use their houses to throw house parties. It was easy because they were always unlocked.

    • I posted this a few weeks ago but it's worth popping up again as Grant does get asked about return rumors, that Paul Rauch had tried to get the show revived for years but P&G just would not sell it.

    • If those two crazy (and I do mean crazy!) kids can't make it, where's the hope for the rest of us?!

    •   Sonia was on the director rotation at DAYS. On BTG, Sonia had been credited as a producer.  May 23 was her first episode directing BTG.
    • And Kim Zimmer also gave interviews where she admitted to some of her behavior and she apologized for it. I give her credit for admitting her wrongdoing and taking responsibility because other actresses would not have done that.  BTW, I will miss John Payne from your avatar.

        JFP's GL post-1993 may have needed Kim Zimmer to try to salvage the mess that was made of the show (and that turned out to be another disaster), but GL post Zimmer's departure was fantastic. Forbes showed GL didn't need Zimmer as well. I also think Santa Barbara didn't help her ego either since Sydney Penny got the attention, and most SB viewers loathed Zimmer's Jodie character. To be fair, I think a big part of the problem was the writing and the producing, but since Zimmer thinks Rauch is such a genius, that's on her.
