I actually thought fiona looked real good with the short hair. It was that era where she was married to Asa and mean to everyone else. it wasn't a great era in OLTL history but 2001 wasn't too bad. I loved that Viki and Gabby were feuding because of what happend with Megan years ago. Gabby's interactions with Todd were great too.

then of course in 2002 Bo and Gabby fell in love and even Viki warmed up to her (After Niki tried to posion her with cofee. LOL) and by 2003 i guess the writers just lost interest in good Gabby. They should have kept her a little bit with an edge.

I absolutely HATED Fiona Hutchinson and the character of Gabrielle. She gave absolutely no enjoyment to me in watching the show. Then, how she stole Delila's desiging business absolute was downright mean, deciteful, and underhanded! Most of the time, such actions are punished in the end, but she got away from it. I hate that the show brought her back after she had departed!

I always thought this was a fun story. In the spring of 1987, I wrote to Paul Rauch who was the EP of OLTL at the time. I suggested to him that he get Sharon Gabet on the show. She had finished a stint on Another World, and the soap world was not the same without her in it! I suggested to Rauch that he hire her as Melinda Cramer. Yeah, I know, ME telling Paul Rauch what to do! LOL! Anyway, some months later, he DID hire her as Melinda, and I wrote to Ms. Gabet to tell her what I had done and to ask for a picture of her. Here is her reply to me:

And here is the pic she sent me:

    • True enough, and Tony and Annabelle suffer the same problem. And the people Quint and Nola had interacted with were gone--Kelly, Morgan, Helena, Mrs Renfield---even Van's been transplanted to the Lewis enclave. Nola's curiosity could've been used somehow, but after Reva's arrival it seems like Long is obsessed with selling that woman to the audience.  As originally written--no, the Chamberlains weren't stockholders anymore. At least not to my understanding. But any story where Quint and Vanessa teamed up, realizing that Alex had played them, and found some loophole to get back in to restore Henry's legacy would've been welcome. As much as I like India--Spaulding gets weird in '85 with Alex, Phillip, India and Warren fighting amongst themselves.

    • Same. And looking sooooo good. 
    • Yeah this episode was actually really good. I loved SINN together against Looney
    • I can forgive them not writing a lot for Quint/Nola at Van and Billy's first wedding, given that Lisa was hugely pregnant and the other story going on was Tony's medical crisis. But yeah---Nola and Quint barely even speak to Van for that last year-plus. Not even after little Billy's born (although Nola and Van do have a nice scene, which is one of the few that they're just nice to each other) or the fallout of Van's addiction, and they flippin' leave when Billy's in a coma or right after being in one)  Even Henry goes to story Siberia. They gave them a big, new set and the promise of some Billy/Van/Nola/Quint family squabblin'--and NADA.  How COOL would it have been to see Nola side with Van and put Reva in her place? But no...NOLAROBICS. RME. Reva really needed someone outside of Josh to tell her like it was. Instead, Billy's head cheerleader. And Jon's calling him "uncle Billy", which just about made me gag.
    • 5-12   Well, as much as i've been enjoying the highs of BTG, I guess I should try to play catch up on my other soaps...lol.   I actually liked this episode. But I guess it could be because I felt there was a lot going on. Bill and Liam's talk. Luna attempting them inroads with Finn. Steffy comforting Hope over Liam. Sheila thanking Bill for helping Luna. Even a decent cliffhanger with Steffy walking in on Luna and Finn.   I know I said it before, but I don't care for the Liam storyline, but the acting has been good.   
    • I enjoyed Santa Barbara from the beginning. Mainly because it was so fresh and different than the P&G soaps I was used to watching.  But there is no denying that it did not hit its stride until 1985. The writing, casting and production all finally came together. Unfortunately backstage drama then slowly destroyed the show and for me from 1988 onward it was a completely different show than the one I was a fan of. 
    • Oh, really? That explains why the reveal episodes...the majority of which Zimmerman did the breakdowns for...hit perfectly. Cool! I really loved that. Background music and all.
