Members ReddFoxx Posted May 5, 2011 Members Share Posted May 5, 2011 That's the best acting I've seen Brian Kerwin do on the show. Kim Zimmer rocks, Echo is about to be very dangerous and I'm wondering exactly how she's going to Dorian and Viki. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members MichaelGL Posted May 5, 2011 Members Share Posted May 5, 2011 I'm going out on a limb, but best decision ever was to bring Guiding Light castoffs Jerry ver Dorn and Kim Zimmer onto the show, and yes that is the GL fan boy in me that is saying this. To see both actors turning in top notch performances, it's as if my show was never canceled. No, no, I'm betting the next follow up for Des and Matthew happens on the last episode in January, when Destiny reveals to Matthew they now have a child together.

Members SFK Posted May 5, 2011 Members Share Posted May 5, 2011 Yes! They could carry an entire web series with nary a third cast member. If ABC owns these characters, they should seriously consider the occasional Valentine to the fans by doing abc.com webisodes from time to time. Inexpensive and good PR. MichaelGL, I agree that JVD and KZ (as well as BK) have been awesome additions to the show. They are the ones I could watch all day. And SE may not be the strongest little actress yet I find her and EA so much more watchable than any other youth-early 30s story on the show. Probably because their stories rely on honest emotion and not a bunch of pop/flash, camp, and sex (well after today...). BTW, James and Deanna were downright corny yukkin' it up watching that movie in the beginning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Vee Posted May 5, 2011 Members Share Posted May 5, 2011 Matthew is a pimp. Look at DAT FACE. Oh, Eddie Alderson, who knew you could grow up to do that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cheap21 Posted May 5, 2011 Members Share Posted May 5, 2011 WTF! When the heck did Tess annul her marriage to Ford and when did she marry Cutter? These things take time, not in less than a day! Echo to Viki "How could you do this to me" BITCH please! Major eyeroll here. Just imagine it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members SFK Posted May 5, 2011 Members Share Posted May 5, 2011 Is OLTL too shallow to show those two in a state of post-coital undress? *Imagining Shaun freaking out over lil' Des losin' it* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted May 5, 2011 Members Share Posted May 5, 2011 God forgive me, but you would've thought I'd been hit with the holy spirit when I saw Destiny takes Matthew's hand. As Sofia from "The Color Purple" would say, "I know t'ere is a Gawd!". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members ReddFoxx Posted May 6, 2011 Members Share Posted May 6, 2011 Matthew was thinking, "If I'm goin' to the clink, I'm gonna get me somethin' before I go." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Vee Posted May 6, 2011 Members Share Posted May 6, 2011 Some quick additional notes: Erika Slezak, Kim Zimmer and Brian Kerwin all deserve Emmys for their work in this storyline. Erika for the last month from the day Viki learned the truth, and Zimmer and Brian Kerwin for today alone, in which they were both perhaps the best I've ever seen them, and they're good to begin with. But Zimmer went to a place I can't remember ever seeing her go - for example, I think Laura Wright learned a lot from Kim Zimmer at GL, but she never learned how to let go and have vulnerability beneath the bombast, and Zimmer can do that. She was like an exposed nerve. The real shame of these scenes is that OLTL chose to take Charlie out of the picture so quickly. This is a fine character and an incredible actor who have been totally abused, and they could've done a lot more with Viki and Charlie to end the show on them (though I understand ending the show on Viki and Clint and like ES/JVD together, I do not think it's absolutely necessary - and were the show continuing, I wouldn't reunite them beyond a tease), or they could've played a triangle with Viki, Charlie and Clint had OLTL gone on, or any number of things. I personally would've found someone else to hook him up with in the last seven months, just to keep Kerwin and his talent around and to give Charlie a happy ending - Carlotta? Some relative of the Evans family? Tonya Pinkins ain't on AMC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted May 6, 2011 Members Share Posted May 6, 2011 They should have paired him up with Renee for the show's last few months. Or Roxy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cheap21 Posted May 6, 2011 Members Share Posted May 6, 2011 Charlie and Roxy should have happened ages ago, back when she lied and said he was Rex's father. I was hoping that lie would end up being the truth and the twop would get together. I thought they had some good, fun chemistry. But as usual, Roxy always gets the shaft. No love interest and now no kids. She's lucky if she even gets an appearance here and there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
