OLTL: Discussion for the week of November 7

I'm confused by the notion that there's no story with Tea being pregnant. Tea gets a happy ending if the show ends. Fans of TSJTodd and Tea, who had a pretty big following get a reward. The parallels with Todd and Victor JR continue with each having in some sense children with both Tea and Blair.

It doesn't have to be crazy and dramatic to be something fans want to see. Besides I'd rather see Tea with a kid than Ford/Jessica playing house.

None of that is a storyline. It's a nice tonic for their fans, and that's great, but I can think of more to do for Tea. However I do agree that if the show is ending, then it's a nice thing to do for fans. It is, along with the Cord/Tina reunion, the only two things I think the show has gotten right so far in regarding to endings fans (or a lot of fans anyway) want to see.

I see your point, but given what's happened to Tea since her 2009 return, I'm perfectly okay with her carrying the baby of the man she lived without any craziness around it.

Glad to read someone criticzing that pathetic "Mumbai Airport" set on OLTL today. I was so annoyed! Ofcourse it just had brick walls & a basic sign rolleyes.gif It didn't have to be glammed out & looking like the actual Shivaji airport in India or anything, but they could've been a bit more creative and open minded. Just pathetic IMO!

Ah yes, that was exactly my point about that hole in the wall they had Mr. Patel calling from. It looked like David's Moroccan prison. I know India has a very real relationship with poverty, but that airport was insultingly third world, I was half watching which is why I asked about the exact whereabouts of that dump.

I'm confused too seeing as how Téa is at the heart of this huge 2 Todd story. She was married to the murdered Todd and carrying his baby while the killer is the father of her first child. That is some prime soapy showdown RC is building to between Téa and RH's Todd. The baby ups the dramatic stakes for the ABC finale.

On PP, Téa having a baby creates more emotional fallout for this story, too. Anyhoo, I'd much rather watch a highly successful career woman juggle a career and a baby than Destiny's teen (ugh) pregnancy.

UGH today felt like a big old mess to me--and after a few days that I had been starting to enjoy more.

But, whether you find him the hottest 16 year old of all time or not, I can't believe anyone is enjoying the Jack/Neela stuff even as camp. It doesn't even have any sorta coherence--their conversatiion comes out of nowhere...

  • Member

If you have to compare this to...everything else he's had in the role, I can see why this is popular. It's what they should have been having him do in the first place, although I guess that would have involved Neela having a pregnancy/pregnancy scare, and some type of rape threat from one of the Todds. Well there's still time...

The flashback! mad.gif

I dont like that Tea went over to Todd to tell him she's pregnant. She didnt have to do that. Id have preferred had she kept it to herself for a while. Dont like how he's the first one to find out (Blair kinda stumbled on it thanks to Sam) I do love that she went to tell Viki. Thats who I would have envisioned her telling first

David is back. Ugh!

I didn't like Tea going to tell him either. That sure was a WTF moment for me. blink.png I don't understand why he needs to be one of the first to know. Or really even know at all. I would think telling Dani would be more important. She's really the only person besides Vicki who understands Tea's loss because she is missing Victor and loved him too. Everyone else seems fine with him being gone. sad.png I'm hoping Tea has some doubts about Todd's innocence because he really is playing her and I don't like it.

I did however love her telling Vicki the news. Those were some really sweet scenes. wub.png

My heart broke for Clint. He was like an excited little kid and he can't go to the wedding.

They cant do that during the 1 o'clock hour?

Yeah, I've done a couple of reports on that and it's only going to last about 30 seconds....so no biggie. ;)

For some reason you act surprised by that.

I just got done watching Tuesday's epi and the scenes with Viki and Tea were so wonderful! I was crying.

Good job you two!

  • Member

Viki and Tea were the highlight of Tuesday for me. ES and Flo are just so natural together.
