OLTL: Discussion for the week of November 21

"My Name is OLTL and today is the day that I die"

[Shiner]

I was in total shock at the end of todays show. Some may have not like todays show I felt it was a good show. HBS did say todays show had a hellva of a ending for the weekend.

[Shiner]

Cracked up laughing at Nora's line to the mayor. I wonder if RSW knew what HBS line was cause he seemed to lose it there.

[ReddFoxx]

The direction at the end was well played, Bo and Nora's expressions were as if they had not yet realized exactly what happened. True cliffhanger.

My heart just sunk when Matthew said "As it turned out, today was also the day...that I died".

[ER Tosh]

Yes this was a actual touching moment on a soap. It's very rare that Im moved to tears from a soap death ( besides soap deaths of characters who actors died irl) but this did it for me.

The only think that messed up the show was Alderson's HORRIFIC voiceover. This guy does not enunciate words correctly or have any inflection in his voice. It ruined a good portion of the show for me.. (How these Alderson siblings lasted on this show as long as they did is something they should both be thanking their lucky stars for this Thanksgiving. I know they are trying things out in Hollywood. lol. GOOD LUCK WITH THAT! (Well he was actually quite decent in Clint Eastwood's Changeling) I hate to say such mean things on this somber day for the show, but I was thrilled that they would not be transitioning to PP. Little did I know that no one would

what a great episode. You could see it coming, especially if you ever saw Sunset Boulevard or even read a certain Agathie Christie novel considered to be among her most famous and frustrating. I don't think it mattered whether he was a good actor or bad, he was Matthew all these years and this was it for him.

unlike most younger actors on daytime, Eddie can actually act. Life after OLTL will probably be very good for Mr. Alderson

[Mr. Vixen]

Eddie Alderson is an AMAZING actor.

First I was hit in the gut by today's ending. Then I got on the boards and got hit in the gut that they have truly taped the last of OLTL.

We have so little time left. Why on earth are they wasting our time by showing Jessica and Ford as a couple? I don't know what bothers me more - the fact they are the most boring pairing I've ever seen or that they are trying the rape to love storyline. One minute at St Ann's with Brody showed more chemistry than the drivel we are currently being forced to watch.

RIP Matthew (maybe) and OLTL.

"2-4-6-8, who do we appreciate? Bobby! Bobby! Yayyyy, BOBBY!"

I guess it was just my TV, but the show looks amazing on this lcd with the proper brightness. You can really see the shine product they slick through everyone's hair.

[Llantano Incorporated]

I teared up during Erika's speech, that's for sure..and that ending really was something. Just rewatched the episode. What a day.

[Mr. Vixen]

That made me just a little bit ill. I was like.........
