OLTL: Actress leaving before the end


Recommended Posts

If it's true, it's very, very sad and they need to pre-tape scenes for her in the final episodes.

If it's a cover story, I suspect it is ABC or Disney coming down on them; it wouldn't be anyone from inside OLTL as Strasser's fire re: the cancellation has always been aimed at the network and the parent company. It's still very sad, but in any event it can't be helped. Unlike when JFP drove her out.

Well that blows. OLTL ending without Dorian seems unthinkable, though a lot of what this show's done in the last couple years has been unthinkable so nothing really shocks me. Viki will of course close out this show, but it would've been nice for it to be alongside Dorian as well. *sigh*.

I hope Dorian can be in the final scenes, but to help fill the gaps, this should be a cue for ABC to try to get back Tina, or Jenny, or Karen, or Larry. Anything to remind people OLTL had a history. Viki shouldn't just have to wring her hands.

I don't want to hold out any hope for them coming back. I'd get my hopes up. Never mind the fact it's been so long since they've been gone, whereas AMC's returns are all characters that were at least on screen last within the last decade. OLTL's seen such a fundamental change in its overall character as a show since Jenny and Karen were regulars that I don't think they'd even consider it now, unfortunately.

I think Brynn and Judith would consider it. I doubt they will be asked, but I would like to believe the finale is not going to be Viki, her Asa/Alan Spuaulding hybrid ex husband, her dumb children, and her rapist brothers, along with Fords and the moper McBain.

Terrible, terrible, terrible news. I'd pretty much given up soaps after AW was canceled, but I saw a promo a few years back of Dorian taking over Buchanan Enterprises and, loving Robin Strasser, I decided to tune in. There was enough Robin Strasser and Erika Slesak to make me happy, so I've been watching ever since. I can't imagine the end without Robin. It's more important that she takes care of her health, of course, but what a blow to the show.

    • BITD I was posting about how interesting it was that Denise had been with this same guy for simply years but they just did not marry - then that year they married! 
    • Random takes from this week: - Bill’s been played way too soft by the actor. I just can’t buy him doing anything truly sinister. I wish he had more of that old-school Victor Newman edge. - On characterization: I’m fine with Leslie being shown as a narcissistic and cruel mother—as long as she doesn’t tip into full cartoon villain territory. Dani’s involvement in Nicole’s storyline feels natural to me, and I really like that Martín is such a hothead, which totally clashes with his polished political career. No wonder no one wants to confide in him. Also, I don’t mind Haley’s characterization at all. - I’m still annoyed they dropped the whole lawsuit storyline. That’s why I’m a bit hesitant about getting too invested in the June plot. Also: I can do without another instant-sibling storyline. - Ashley and Derek? Totally fine with them in small doses. That’s the best way to handle those two. - Thank God Ted is getting recast. I honestly couldn’t handle that constant swaying much longer. - Speaking of Ted: maybe I’m in the minority here, but that hotel set is hideous. The oversized boiserie makes everything look flat, and that artwork on the wall? Bland, ugly, and lifeless. - I’m 50/50 on the product placement. On one hand, it’s totally misplaced and campy—especially when it shows up in the middle of emotional scenes. It just feels wrong. But on the other hand… here we are talking about Febreze and Tide. So maybe it is working? I honestly don’t know. - I don’t have any issues with the fashion on the show overall, but André’s wardrobe is just off. Not in terms of style, but size. His tops are way too tight and actually make him look even shorter than he is. Same goes for Smitty. Both of them would seriously benefit from some larger blazers or chunkier sweaters.
