Members EricMontreal22 Posted January 27, 2011 Members Share Posted January 27, 2011 I have to admit, one thing I am enjoying about the last few weeks is Carlivati isn't dragging out revelations with psych outs, the way he has. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dragonflies Posted January 27, 2011 Members Share Posted January 27, 2011 Eh I don't see him as the victim cause I don't blame Clint for going after him given what he did is considered rape. He's lucky Clint didn't castrate him, Asa would have Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ReddFoxx Posted January 27, 2011 Members Share Posted January 27, 2011 Charlie is trying to help Echo, but rubbing on her arm and knee is taking a bit a far. It's transparent that she's playing games. Loved Aubrey today. She might be a con artist, but it was good to see Clint over a barrel. "Fix this or I'll fix you". The direction in the Dorian/Rex scenes was interesting, but funny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Vizion Posted January 27, 2011 Members Share Posted January 27, 2011 Well waddya know, I thought today's show was thoroughly entertaining (well for the most part) I don't give a hot damn about James, Starr, or Michelle, but suprisingly Starr was the most irritating part of it all. I don't know if OLTL expects me to feel sorry for James, but I don't like at all. I get what they were trying to do with the Rex and Dorian scenes, however it failed. That was a mess. I also don't like any of JPL's acting choices, they bother me. I don't know why he feels it necessary to try to make every scene more comedic. Ahh liked Joey and Kelly today, quite a bit actually and Cutter was pretty funny. Joey showed a little fire and spark, there was some life in them, nice chemistry between the three, and I'm glad for a slow build for Joey and Kelly. This works much better as a triangle than a quad - Aubrey should just go team up with Clint. Today was the most I have liked Terri C and Aubrey since she has joined the show and I think they should transition her out of the Joey/Cutter stuff and put her into a full story with Clint. I'm fine with her being the new Kim. She and JVD seemed like they enjoyed sparring today and they have the potential to be the new Asa/Alex. It would be something fun for the show. Charlie is being ridiculous. Isn't Echo living in Viki's house? How in the world is Viki not being generous? Free room and board seems generous to me. The irritating thing is, while Echo does have feelings for Charlie, she wasn't even manipulating him, he was just being a jerk. I'm Team Clint when it comes to Bo, I'm sorry, he's just self-righteous and irritating to me. I'm actually TeamClint when it comes to several characters (especially Ford, do not care that he got beat up), I'm enjoying JVD that much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted January 27, 2011 Members Share Posted January 27, 2011 She does well when she can be very cold and have a limited range. Going between Clint and Cookie Cutter will be in her forte. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members EricMontreal22 Posted January 27, 2011 Members Share Posted January 27, 2011 Agree with most of what you say--and exactly re the Dorian/Rex scenes. Rex always makes weird acting choices (well more often than not), but the voice over and weird camera angles were... yeah strange. However that's the kinda thing I appreciate that OLTL tries (as long as they realized it failed and don't make a habit of it) and most soaps nowadays don't even attempt.

Members DRW50 Posted January 27, 2011 Members Share Posted January 27, 2011 Because JPL is lazy and can't act, and the show enables him. He will kill any scene he gets - he tanked over a year of story and was rewarded for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MontyB Posted January 27, 2011 Members Share Posted January 27, 2011 I respectfully disagree. I thought they were pretty funny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members EricMontreal22 Posted January 27, 2011 Members Share Posted January 27, 2011 I almost can't blame JPL anymore. It seems to me that the show loves what he does, so I'm sure he gets the same impression. So why change? I dont' see any grat talent in him, but I think he could rise at least more to the challenge, if asked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted January 27, 2011 Members Share Posted January 27, 2011 I don't think he cares about rising to any challenge. He's had dramatic scenes in the last few years and failed miserably at them. He's been given so many opportunities that he does nothing with. He shouldn't even be on the show now - he was a big reason why the show was rotgut for big parts of 2009. Yet he was rewarded for that while many better actors in the story were fired.

Members MontyB Posted January 27, 2011 Members Share Posted January 27, 2011 I have to agree with Eric. I think TPTB love his acting style. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted January 27, 2011 Members Share Posted January 27, 2011 I think they love the character but the actor, they seem to have realized his severe limitations. He was put into a story where he doesn't have to do anything at all. People run around him and all he has to do is make stupid faces. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ~bl~ Posted January 27, 2011 Members Share Posted January 27, 2011 They give JPL though the opportunity to perform with the best of the cast, due to that I think they like him. I too think TC has chemistry with JvD, especially when they were behind his desk. If OLTL is wanting us to dislike Bo, they are doing a good job of it. He forgives Bobby Ford for what happened with Jessica, what? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Cheap21 Posted January 28, 2011 Members Share Posted January 28, 2011 I loved Aubrey and Clint today. They got chemistry. Ditch the idiot son and get with the father Im glad Im not the only one who saw it. Id rather see Aubrey and CLint as an item than she with Joey. "Fix this or I'll fix you" Line of the day!
