Members Khan Posted February 1, 2019 Members Share Posted February 1, 2019 Which story are you talking about? The one in '69, the one in '85/'86, or the one in '95? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Planet Soap Posted February 1, 2019 Members Share Posted February 1, 2019 OLTL over visited the DID issue during it's run. The 1995 plot is a favorite of mine however, at least with the initial Jessica/Tess story, Tess was an actual character per say with a goal: have her own life and be with Nash. Nikki basically became a cartoon and it was confusing as to what her purpose was in destroying Viki's life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Khan Posted February 1, 2019 Members Share Posted February 1, 2019 (edited) Really? You and I might be the only two who feel that way, lol. Tell me, why do YOU believe that story was flawed? In the book, "Sybil," the title character had two (out of 16) personalities named "Peggy Lou" and "Peggy Ann." One alter always served as a mirror image of the other. That's how I've come to view '90s and '00s Niki Smith, as if there were, in fact, TWO Niki Smiths: one, or "Niki 1," who was there in the '60s, '70s and '80s; and the other, or "Niki 2," who came afterward. Otherwise, OLTL's writers were so lousy, they committed character assassination on a character's alter ego, lol.

Members Bright Eyes Posted February 1, 2019 Members Share Posted February 1, 2019 Would you ever revisit Niki Smith to rehabilitate ( Please register in order to view this content ) her characterization, or never go back to the DID ever again?

Members Khan Posted February 1, 2019 Members Share Posted February 1, 2019 (edited) The latter. When Dr. Susannah Hanen merged Viki's personalities, they should have stayed merged. Edited February 1, 2019 by Khan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Bright Eyes Posted February 1, 2019 Members Share Posted February 1, 2019 Re-watching it and this may be an odd comparison, but does it feel like it could be a scene from Twin Peaks to anyone else? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DaytimeFan Posted February 1, 2019 Members Share Posted February 1, 2019 "I sang solo in the children's choir and they resented me just like you resent me. Tone deaf little girls with eyeglasses like Coke bottles and ankles the size of logs. And they whispered about me in dressing rooms just like you're whispering about me now. They couldn't hurt me and you can't hurt me. I'm immune to whispers and smirks." "Saint Maria of Wildwind tending to the sick in her push up bra!"

Members juppiter Posted February 2, 2019 Members Share Posted February 2, 2019 1. Making Victor Lord a child molester is an unforgivable retcon. 2. Erika Slezak could be too over the top campy and cringey. I don’t mind camp as long as it’s billed as such, but camp that thinks it’s serious just makes me cringe.

Members Khan Posted February 2, 2019 Members Share Posted February 2, 2019 (edited) I agree with you on the first point, but the second...? If anything redeemed that storyline, it was ES's performance, which was nothing short of spellbinding. Edited February 2, 2019 by Khan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members juppiter Posted February 2, 2019 Members Share Posted February 2, 2019 I don’t mean she was always over the top, just certain moments I can’t watch. Those Princess scenes are unwatchable for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
