I must have missed something in the last scenes, did they actually show Matthew?

No. Someone just spoiled it :m

Nora and Bo have become about as sympathetic as Jim and Tammy Faye Baker. Both have mis(used) their offices to go after Clint and seem to have enjoyed it for the most part.

I'm glad it isn't Nora who killed Eddie. Had it been, Bo and Nora, in their present incarnations, would have simply swept it under the rug. No biggie. <_< But :ph34r: ...that is classic "Be careful what you wish for."

Story-wise, :ph34r: is Rachel 2.0, but the Georgie storyline was so much better. Still can't for the big reveal. It will probably be awhile, though. Rex is still atoning to Uncle Bo and will probably cover-up :ph34r: involvement.

Good cliffhanger, though. I credit the director. (Gary Donatelli, wasn't it?)

SPOILER warnings please. It was a good cliffhanger but you just ruined it by revealing the outcome

I still find Bo and Nora sympathetic. I just find their very recent roles in this story to be hollow; all they do is chase after Clint ineffectively.

I don't think there is any spoiler about Matthew - it's just speculation. The show will make it up as they go along anyway.

  • Member

There's no spoiler out there that says Matthew is the killer. It's all speculation at this point.

I don't know if Matthew will have this covered up or not. I can see him being banished to a facility since he's not worthy of OLTL/Frons' support, the way the Fords or Jack are.

And this is why I don't really like Matthew being the killer (assuming it's him). I have no doubt Frons wants EA off the show.

I assume, if Matthew is the killer, it'll be an excuse to usher Eddie Alderson off the canvas and have Matthew return as a Ford clone. Similar to what will happen with Cole when Starr & James decide to marry.

I don't think we will ever see Matthew again if he leaves. If he does return it will be as a hostage-taking psycho.

The show has no use for characters who were not bad retcons and cannot be glommed onto existing families. That's why they hate Joey and Kevin.

Not jumping the gun here or anything, but I will be very upset with the show if EA is let go. He's the best young actor OLTL's got and Matthew with his darkly shaded relationship with his family and even friends makes him more interesting than all three Ford brothers put together. Matthew being thrown under the bus for an instaBuchanan like Rex is criminal, made into a rich punk villain who can't get a girl (who he actually wants) just to prop a Ford brother is wrong. I don't like Matthew just because he's the G.I. Joe in FV and RC's box of Ken dolls but because he is a genuinely interesting, well-acted character, and there are not nearly enough of those on OLTL, let alone soaps in general.

I love love love Matthew and EA and will be pissed if he is let go. He is the best young actor on the show and he's been on OLTL for almost ten years now. But I guess who needs Matthew when we have Nate Salinger? :rolleyes: No doubt a Matthew recast would be a disaster. We'd probably have another Andrew Trischitta on our hands (except he would be 35 years old).

Played by Andrew Trischitta's big brother.

My bad, didn't see your post AlexElizabeth, my sentiments exactly. :D

  • Member

If Matthew is the killer, wouldn't that make this Rachel/Georgie all over again?

The difference is, Georgie was a likeable psycho.
