OLTL: Discussion for the week of October 17

[Cheap21]

While I hate Rex, I do love that his story has generated airtime for Roxy. It feels as if we've been seeing alot of hear lately

Not that hard when you dont have the range to pull off anything but that

Todd laying in imagination Irene's lap as she strokes his head...I cant even....

[OLTL_fan]

Love seeing Irene torture Todd.

[AlexElizabeth]

Please. FF couldn't do a dual role even if she wanted to. She has no range.

[DRW50]

This after the show banishing her for a year or more thanks to the twitchy turd's story.

[Antoyne]

I haven't watched yet but Cheap saying TSJ means I'm down.

[Cheap21]

Its great to see his face but

[alexisfan07]

Oh I know, I'm just saying maybe they told her to act ambiguous

If Howarth could just remember how to play the old RAGING, tortured soul Todd instead of this wimpy lost puppy version, this story could really rock. It's meaty psychological warfare going on inside his fried brain and the stuff RH used to excel at.

Instead, I found myself wondering WTF RH was going for except maybe his version of Victor, the brainwashed, special needs guy who can't live without mommy.

[DRW50]

I think the problem is lack of interesting relationships, more than anything else. Other than some flashbacks, Todd still has no real relationship with anyone on the show. That's because character development takes a back seat to "mysteries."

[MontyB]

I'm lost on this one because Todd's relationships have been established eons ago. The flashbacks are completely useful for those who did not see RH's relationships in the past.

[DRW50]

They aren't being written for in the present. A handful of scenes with Starr or Blair which ultimately don't go anywhere. Even less with Viki. The whole thing seems to be in permanent stall mode.

[MontyB]

I wouldn't say it's in stall mode, I just think they are taking their time. It's funny because people were complaining (not you) that the story was rushed just a short few weeks ago.

[Cheap21]

What if they give the character that FF is playing amnesia and they drag it out as to who she is. (yeah theres that thing called DNA, but Im sure they wouldnt hesitate to find some reason to have her results doctored to make things extra messy)

[alexisfan07]

I'm so excited to see Nora mix it up with the Todd storyline finally!

Oh of COURSE she has amnesia. No doubt about it.
