OLTL: Discussion for the week of September 26

[Cheap21]

Im sure people hated at least one of them before. I dont see why them being Viki's daughter should make either immune. 2 sisters feuding. Its a classic soap tale

[alexisfan07]

I guess no one agrees with me lol...I'll go sit in my corner

Tina and Viki

[Cheap21]

Viki shut the F up about Tina knowing about Tess and doing nothing. TSJTodd knew and you forgave him quickly

Jess and Nat belong on WWE

Tina I wonder what she meant by that. I wonder if she does have cancer (pure speculation based on that wig)

WTF, Irene planted a bomb to blow up Todd's family?

[alexisfan07]

What Tina just tell Viki about it being her choice?

[Scotty]

That guy with Irene looks kinda like a taller, older version of Matthew.

Guess they won't show Cord's face until tomorrow.....hmmm

I agree

[OLTL_fan]

Wtf Irene put a bomb on the house? This woman is crazy!!

Ugh they are not showing Cord until tomorrow. #@!$ this show!!!

Omg A GH promo! ABC is finally promoting their soaps again?

[alexisfan07]

Someone tell me! Lol

And yeah I see it as what it is but are any of you going to like the other respective sister again? That's the mistake. They've taken it too far. Ron starts out ok but then it devolves into plot-driven repetition that destroys characters permanently.

[Cheap21]

Does that matter if people like either again? NOTHING either has done makes either unredeemable. People have come back fro worse. I absoltely hated TSJTodd back in 2008 (and he was worse off) and wanted him dead yet I eventually got over that and was loving him again. Jessica nor Natalie is permanently destroyed

[alexisfan07]

I know it's naive to think this but I'm just one of those viewers that think fans should like as many characters as possible and hating one of the main character's daughters seems out of the question to me

[Scotty]

But liking most or all characters on a soap doesn't make for good drama. There have to be some characters you just hate.

[dragonflies]

No, because I can sit and stare at him all day, seriously he's effing gorgeous

I may hate Natalie, but damn if she's not 100% accurate in what she said to princess Jessica

[Scotty]

I just think he's funny.

[Cheap21]

So on the soaps you watch, you like all the main characters and their family members bc you feel you have to?

[alexisfan07]

Kind of yeah. I don't know, I'm complicated. I mean, I try to be as compassionate as I can in real life and when watching shows so I tend to see both sides of most arguments.

[SalemPlace]

I totally get what you are saying. I'm better now at hating some of the characters but a few years ago I was just like you. For anyone to hate a character was unthinkable to me. I still see both sides of the argument but if the actor sucks in the showing vulnerability dept I just seem to lack that compassion now. I guess I'm getting jaded in my old age.
