OLTL: Thursday, June 6, 2013 Discussion Thread

I don't think the writers truly know what to do with Jack when not in Todd's sphere. They need to give him a solid persona.

I was busy with family stuff today I didn't get to watch! Thank goodness, I'm an insomniac tonight.

I know.. they need to give him some friends, if he's still in HS and graduating, but I do think he will get some story soon (presumably the "Notes on a Scandal" s/l) since he Instagrammed a stack of scripts..

well I was seeing some McDean and also some Stenden clips

[Winchester91]

The South Asians showing 'em how it's done. Hawt.

Holy crap, the previews are mighty good.
*An attempt at Blair's life...can Todd save her?

*Looks like a custody battle with Natalie and Stephen Clay for Rafe Liam.
*Jeffrey announcing to Clint and Viki some bad news.

Looks like story is moving for once.

[Winchester91]

Yeah, I'm tired of seeing Trischitta play the same scenes over and over again. I liked seeing him with Dorian and being a big bro to Sam.

Ooh, good. I'd comment more, but I won't derail this thread.

[cassadine1991]

yeah they don't know what do with him.. i mean come on.. He has a fanbase, look at how the ratings in summer spiked with teens.. they need to show him off.. but yeah I love Dorian/Jack scenes...

isn't John still in Quantico??? I guess his assignment is over..

[cassadine1991]

Vimal's date is named Shawna??? Hmm... Could it be the same Shawna that appeared on OLTL in the early 00s??

[Winchester91]

If this show was an hour long, they should introduce some friends of his (the J-Team, perhaps?) and build a storyline around that. He's 18 (or thereabouts). He needs some guy friends.

It's lookin' like we'll see a re-cast McBain soon enough...

[cassadine1991]

the J-Team LOL.. i agree he does need friends, too bad he isn't playing soccer anymore, well they could always have some film "geeks/nerds" for him to interact with

yeah looks like we might see nuBain

[Vee]

No. No. No. And no.

[Winchester91]

*Vimal/Rama can be adorable/sultry/serious within one episode. That's what I call chemistry.
*WTF Snoop, I bet that was a real joint as well. This ain't your older sister's OLTL.
*David brings Dorian down. Bring back Ray Montez.
*For the first time, I care about what could happen next with Bo/Nora. I wonder how this advice thing may turn.

[cassadine1991]

well let's hope she gets with Ron Raines' character...

yeah I never seen Rama/Vimal like THAT before

[Winchester91]

I want as much distance from the Cartini Jack as possible. He should be the Male Cramer Diva who likes throwing glass chalices. I'd like to pretend any scene after this and before the 29th of April premiere didn't happen.

[cassadine1991]

I know... I hated Cartini Jack... I know... he is the oldest Cramer male, since Zane and Sam are younger than him and Paul is dead... I mean being in a house full of women for that long..

[Cheap21]

Why is Snoop still on the show? Thankfully this appears to be his last episode

This one was a bore for me. The last two weeks were. The show needs to pick up the pace. The previews at least looked promising

so you only just became a fan of him a month and a half ago?

[Steve]

Yeah, it was basically a filler show, but for me this was the best episode I've seen so far. It really shows what a difference the scriptwriter can make between the awful dialogue on Tuesday and the truly funny dialogue today. I especially enjoyed the Bo/Nora, Dorian/David and Rama/Vimal scenes.

Agreed. Admittedly I wasn't watching much at the end of the ABC run, but I do remember Jack being an angry bully. This kid helping David on the computer doesn't seem like the same character.
