OLTL - Monday, April 29th 2013 Discussion Thread

Wait, are we saying B&B is as good as AMC and OLTL? Because no, it is not. B&B is its own alien species. It bears no resemblance to human reality. Fine for the people that like it, but let's not pretend it is not in its own strange universe.

I noticed some people uploading the episodes on youtube. Whats your take on that? Personally its ok but morally its wrong since PP wont be making revenue if the shows are outsourced there.

Just finished watching OLTL here in Canada on the high def FX Channel. It looked damned good! I've never watched a show via the internet on my TV - is the quality the same/comparable to a TV channel?

Having watched on my computer as well as on my HD TV, I think it's quite comparable. Quality to me is excellent. Nothing screams 'cheap' to me, though I'm pretty sure I can tell Celia's room is also the nursery in Tea's house. But I love the idea of them reusing the sets and how they're apparently doing/filming everything.

That's just me though LOL, I don't care, just noticed it.

I think I probably just watched for the 5th time.

(This is not meant directly for the poster I'm responding to)

Totally wrong and I can't wait for them to be pulled. Sure, the network feeds shouldn't be online either but they at least have a network airing them before the web gets a hold of them (not advocating, just stating). If people are uploading to YouTube shows that are strictly made for the internet (for now), those people deserve to have their YouTube accounts terminated and sued! What purpose does it serve to upload already uploaded protected works? International viewership? It's not like TOLN/Prospect Park gets any of that "international" revenue, so I'm totally against any of this supposed uploading and won't mind sending a note to PP/TOLN in case I see something before they do.

Also, people in Canada can see the show. They have the option. They can't bitch and moan now that they don't.

I get what you're meaning. I agree. B&B has that 'look' to it that AMC and OLTL are going for. Modern, current, edgy. Location shoots. Quicker scenes, etc. It's one of the reasons I ALWAYS find myself somehow watching B&B even when it drives me away with it's nonsense.

    • This news was reported on Facebook today, in a vintage Y&R group. I hope it's not true (I haven't seen it reported anywhere else), but her husband is said to have left the following post and photo. Dear friends and fellow fans, I am heartbroken to share the passing of original cast member Pamela Peters (Peggy Brooks). Her husband posted the following photo and message: "The love of my life. The brightness in my life which is now so dimmer. In April I lost you and I miss you so much and I hope you are at peace. Lost Pam due to things beyond what was going on in her life. The original Peggy Brooks on The Young and the Restless and many more shows and commercials and then the creator of Chocolate Fortunes. So beautiful and a hell of a sense of humor. Great laugh, Great smile and Great compassion. You are my sidekick forever. Will miss you and all your sharp barbs. The angels are with you my beautiful angel. Fly safe and be happy. Much love and kisses forever.

      Has anyone else seen this reported?
    • While keeping up with the current show I’ve also been watching May and I finally got to Phillip’s beating. Was surprised they went so far but I loved it. A nice reminder that no matter how much you doll him up, Xander at his core is a thug.    Great scenes between Xander and Sarah. I do enjoy them happy but they are an extremely toxic and untrusting couple. This was some of LG’s best work as Sarah.

    • The one that comes immediately to mind is that she obviously was still harboring resentment against Kate Linder. She tells a story of Linder meeting with producers to pitch a storyline about Esther dealing with Kay's death.
    • I think it shows a lack of imagination from Griffith and the people calling the shots. Yes, there are budgetary and physical limitations, but Griffith and team would rather make the laziest and quickest decisions than put a little more effort into the set situation.  That said, B&B also seems to be in a similar set predicament. I know the plans for Y&R and B&B to move to a new studio were put on hold, but maybe a bigger space would remove some of these restrictions and give them more set variety. Someone should definitely revisit those plans. 
    • I thought my ears were hearing things wrong when I was working and listening to the show. But Lucky is leaving again already

    • Did Carrie say her son was graduating from high school, or college, and that's why he and Austin couldn't make the trip to Salem? Does that mean Carrie's son is currently the same age as Sami's granddaughter?  That's one nutty family….
    • Exactly this. I don't watch Days but on Y&R the lack of sets is directly cutting off story possibilities. 
    • I just meant because Drake and Wayne are very different actors at least from the clips that I’ve seen. Even with time between the two actors, it’s still a major role and love interest being recast. So I still stand by my question of I wonder how people in the 80’s felt when Drake took over as Roman. I defintely agree with Tomas and Derek being recast long before Ted.
