WAIT a minute... I had no idea Jill Larson, my lovable Opal on AMC, was on OLTL... let alone named Ursula! How funny. That clip is so camp - there's no way that older man could wheel that chair so fast and furious that two grown women are thrown out a glass window haha. So what happens next - is that what kills Ursula and gets Jill over to AMC??

Ursula’s last scenes are the campiest sequences I have ever seen on any soap opera, but I love them so much

Ursula returns repeatedly. I think she only stops appearing because Jill was hired on AMC. Her last may be a Rogue's Gallery jailbreak, but I can't remember.

Here she is in one of her return scenes. Christine Cromwell, Viki's fake daughter, was told that homeless people exist even in Paul Rauch's Llanview, and decides to go to the local homeless encampment to take photos. I find it very patronizing, to be honest, and I guess Ursula did too, as she goes on about her "first amendment rights" and gives Christine a beatdown! Ursula was before her time. Today she'd be in Congress.

The woman who played headcase Marsha Talbot on ATWT a few years earlier has a turn as one of the "good" homeless people, whose only request is to fix her hair before Christine exploits...er...photographs her.

Ladies and gentlemen... I present you... the new and "improved" Luna Moody. Yes, that same girl with the female empowerment vibe... the inner goddess motto... that could beat bad men up if she wanted to... that same brave crazy girl who wanted Tina to emancipate herself from Cord... is now... THIS. And I'm not saying there is anything wrong with it... No, no, no... All I'm saying is... that the only thing missing is a foot massage at the of the scene. The amount of men that were probably salivating and saying "I want a woman just like this... while I fantasize about that other one who is great in bed" while watching... gives me a little bit of reflux.

BTW... this wouldn't have been so bad if we didn't see for months and months how she was not even his second choice... she was friend zoned and ignored... till Max was trying out with Blair time and time again. And now... she seems very grateful to be a second choice. Disturbingly grateful.

Thanks @Maxim . That's an odd scene in that it feels more like a fantasy for Max than real life. We do get various sides of Luna, including stronger sides, in the years to come, but I think she and Max always seemed like a reach (and I think in the long run they would have become tired of each other).
