Members Khan Posted December 8, 2011 Members Share Posted December 8, 2011 Exactly. O'Shea knew how to ground the more outrageous ideas in reality. Plus, it helped that she'd been there before Rauch, and thus knew the show better than others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Marco Dane Posted December 8, 2011 Members Share Posted December 8, 2011 Probably NO OLTL in the DC area since there was a shooting at VA Tech Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members SFK Posted December 8, 2011 Members Share Posted December 8, 2011 Nope, no OLTL for me today. Coverage of yet another shooting at VA Tech. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members AlexElizabeth Posted December 8, 2011 Members Share Posted December 8, 2011 Okay, they got me on that one. I thought the Cutter/Gigi stuff was real. And now I'm pissed that it wasn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members OLTL_fan Posted December 8, 2011 Members Share Posted December 8, 2011 Figured it would be a fakeout. ugh. Jack is so cute with Neela. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cheap21 Posted December 8, 2011 Members Share Posted December 8, 2011 Go Blair! I love that she has her brain on and isnt being stupid for Todd. I admire her devoition and trust in Tomas and going off on Todd while defending him.Take that loser! Shane's starting to come across like a little psycho. I thought he was done with that.

Members Max Posted December 9, 2011 Members Share Posted December 9, 2011 I totally agree with the above quote, Eric. I am usually not a fan of the way RC writes comedy, but the "Fraternity Row" storyline is quite funny. Although I don't know if this was his intention, Roxy acting like a crazed soap fan is a great satire on the whole situation. However, I was less than thrilled that they made Clint into some evil bastard because he suggested that the soap was cancelled because it wans't profitable. (Clint did not say those words, but he did say that his company can't save the soap for business reasons.) To be more true to life, the "Fraternity Row" scenes should have happened in a park, and all the fans who want to save the soap should go out and buy vacuum cleaners. Also, it is so sad that a fictional soap got a SOW cover announcing it was cancelled, given the magazine failed to do the same when cancellation announcements came for the two longest running real soaps.

Members SFK Posted December 9, 2011 Members Share Posted December 9, 2011 The writing and acting of that first Gigi/Cutter scene was SO Days of our Lives, right? I know they retconned their blood relation, but Shane really does favor Roxy if you take a good look at them. I also think Todd happens to currently resemble Carmen who used to play Jack. I hate myself for feeling slightly bad for Jack for being duped, that is so the OLTL way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members EricMontreal22 Posted December 9, 2011 Members Share Posted December 9, 2011 I admit, they bug me too. That patterned with the endless flashbacks we suddenly always get it seems since the Summer (often to things we saw just in the previous episode). Though during the fakeout I was getting annoyed with the writing, so I guess I was glad it wasn't real Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members EricMontreal22 Posted December 9, 2011 Members Share Posted December 9, 2011 I don't quite get the SOW thing. The show now has a credit thanking SOW for promotional consideration (the way they did when they promoted those vegetable juices, etc). So SOW paid them for the placement?

Members SFK Posted December 9, 2011 Members Share Posted December 9, 2011 That fakeout went on for so damn long I swore you all must have been talking about something else. Those Bonjour extras look like they went to a Halloween party as Jack and Ennis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
