Members DRW50 Posted March 8, 2012 Members Share Posted March 8, 2012 Something tells me the show spent years hoping people forgot about it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members EricMontreal22 Posted March 8, 2012 Members Share Posted March 8, 2012 As I think they did for a lotof the Todd story--or at least hoping that people had vague and fuzzy memories that could easily be pitched into a different direction. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted March 8, 2012 Members Share Posted March 8, 2012 I saw a comment which said, "Sonny's pain doesn't compare to Todd's!" That tells you where the soaps have taken these characters, and the price daytime paid for it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted March 8, 2012 Members Share Posted March 8, 2012 I wish they'd let Viki stay mayor. It's a role which suited her so well, and led to her being able to work for others aggressively, instead of constantly fighting her own demons and putting up with her family. This speech is just good, gutsy material. And you'll never guess who Viki names as the lead citizen of Llanview... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LafovVHWNmc&feature=related 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MissLlanviewPA Posted March 8, 2012 Members Share Posted March 8, 2012 (edited) I know now! (Granted, I sort of cheated, having seen it in the comments section before I heard Viki say her name) Gabrielle Holden. What a beautiful sound that has . If only it had lasted . Why do I get the feeling this was after she was embezzling money and cheated on Max with Tony to shut him up? ETA: I actually kind of joke-guessed that it could be Gabrielle, given everything that happened with her that year (and that she's my favorite character, of course), but I was still happily surprised/amused to find that it was her!

Members Khan Posted March 9, 2012 Members Share Posted March 9, 2012 Once upon a time, I was willing to emphasize with Todd's problems. But that was actually before all the whitewashing and attempts to turn his story into a fairy tale. Agree. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Vee Posted March 15, 2012 Members Share Posted March 15, 2012 Wasn't Viki only mayor for like five minutes before getting shot, though? I was under the impression it was used as a plot point. I agree it could've had legs (uh, bad choice of words). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted March 15, 2012 Members Share Posted March 15, 2012 I think it was just a few months, yes. She was mayor long enough to start cleaning out the drug trade in Llanview, which is what got her shot. I think after her recovery from her stroke, she did go back to being mayor, but this wasn't used in the story. In 1991 she gave up her mayor job to spend more time with Clint because she thought he was having an affair. It's too bad. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members MissLlanviewPA Posted March 16, 2012 Members Share Posted March 16, 2012 (edited) Blair and Marty's final argument before the birth of Starr Manning (and Blair gives herself her first onscreen haircut!): I wonder if this is the scene Fiona mentioned in the OLTL Tribute magazine. Except she said that she started it by throwing potatoes at Andrea, and she wasn't sure if it made it to air or not. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6DdkQ7q5r_w&feature=related Edited March 16, 2012 by MissLlanviewPA 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members BKuzak Posted March 17, 2012 Members Share Posted March 17, 2012 Happy "St. Erika" day everyone. Mark Derwin i guess always e-mails Erika saying it's St. Erika day...because she started on the show on St. Patricks day (her first air date was probably a couple of weeks later but it's always celebrated on St. Patricks day.) It will always be St. Erika day to me. I've celebrated it "with her" for the past 18 years so it won't change. just that instead of counting number of years, i just celebrate Viki history every year from this year on. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted March 17, 2012 Members Share Posted March 17, 2012 (edited) That's so sweet. I always end up thinking of this as Ryan's Hope Day. Edited March 17, 2012 by CarlD2 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
