Members EricMontreal22 Posted May 10, 2013 Members Share Posted May 10, 2013 I love your posts on her blog (I assume you're the same Dale.) I actually have grown to really like her--we argue on facebook sometimes. She and I see many things VERY differently but she's not so hard headed that she won't consider different opinions, unlike many soap bloggers. I think the radio thing works too, and could lead to some great scenes--I jsut found the setup kinda random. But, meh, they have to start some stories pretty suddenly, so...

Members Winchester91 Posted May 11, 2013 Members Share Posted May 11, 2013 I still can't make up my mind if Vic was concealing evidence or if he felt sorry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members rhinohide Posted May 11, 2013 Members Share Posted May 11, 2013 Overall I'm really liking the show. My complaints are grounded in agenda. I don't know if Jen P is the best EP ever, primarily because I can barely name an EP prior to Frank. You guys amaze me with your wealth of knowledge. But she seems enthusiastic and capable and so far the show is fresh, sharp, modernized and while decidedly different from old OLTL and the four remaining network soaps, it still retains enough of its origin to keep the sense and feel of the familiar.

Members Khan Posted May 11, 2013 Members Share Posted May 11, 2013 Quality-wise, I'd break down that list into the following: Great EP's: Linda Gottlieb*, Susan Bedsow Horgan, Doris Quinlan, Paul Rauch and Joseph Stuart Good EP's: Jean Arley, Maxine Levinson and Gary Tomlin Bad EP's: Jill Farren Phelps and Frank Valentini The jury's still out on Pepper. *I'm being as objective about this as I can.

Members greens_dupres Posted May 11, 2013 Members Share Posted May 11, 2013 I think this perfectly sums up my feelings on the beginning of the Pepperman era. The JFP Rappadavidson era lasted 4 years?!?! I cannot believe I hung on that long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Winchester91 Posted May 11, 2013 Members Share Posted May 11, 2013 From what I know and read about the Levinson era...it was one whole year where absolutely nothing happened...or was that more of Labine's doing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Dale Posted May 11, 2013 Members Share Posted May 11, 2013 It was actually only just over three years - December 1997 to very early 2001. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members MontyB Posted May 11, 2013 Members Share Posted May 11, 2013 You have been officially STONED! The JFP era was the only time I ever tuned out of OLTL. She was much better EP at Guiding Light Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members greens_dupres Posted May 11, 2013 Members Share Posted May 11, 2013 No stoning- that is so INTERESTING! What else did you like other than the Bo/Nora destruction? I seem to only remember it for the Rappaports (Lanie and Jen- ugh and the endless Matthew paternity secret) and Tim Gibbs as Kevin and Ben/Viki, all of which I abhorred. I LOVED Kevin Stapleton and Kevin/Cassie and never got over them being dumped for an FOJ. But now that you've given it dates, I think that era would also include some of the Todd/Tea stuff I loved (unpopular but I loved his fake DID) and Jessica's pregnancy and hit and run, which was good stuff. So maybe she wasn't all horrible, all the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
