Strange / Awkward / Random Story Plots

I'll start with an awkward one and a random one... 

 

Y&R... wasn't Daniel addicted to porn at one point while he was with Lily? I can't remember all the beats (no pun intended) of the plot, but didn't they show him in a glazed, euphoric state while looking at a computer at some point? It's like, how do you... portray this kind of storyline? And, how do you delve into the emotional part of it and the effects it has on their relationship? If someone remembers this story better than me, please refresh :)

 

DAYS... In 2000, when the teen crowd was working with Habitat Humanity to build the Lockhart's home, they uncovered a mysterious can. Haha. A can. With the words "did it get you dizzy Desi?" on it. It later played into the Paul Mendez (Nicole's father) story a year later, but at the time when they discovered the can, it seemed to have random magical powers. Like, Jan Spears was holding onto it and then her hand started bleeding (also noteworthy, when the incident happened, they showed a close-up of Chloe and her big eyes as if she was doing some sort of voodoo effect against Jan). Random as hell. 

 

Then there was the mysterious "goop" story beat of 2003...

OLTL was full of this: 

*Dorian going lesbian for a few months.

*1968 Time Travel. 

*Eterna

*The whole beaver plot.  

*The Stacy pregnancy nonsense.  

*Anything related to David Vickers during the last years of the ABC run.

Horseshit. I was there and they called it a beaver for months. When we began clowning "Roxy's beaver" online, they switched it up and began claiming it was a porcupine.

On Y&R didn't Reid also have a thing with going on his Mom's (Victoria's) laptop and watching porn, or something?  This was a few years ago when the new "Reid" was introduced...the current Jesusy one. 

 

Loved World Turns, but Lilith/Duncan/Shannon was so out of left field for that show at the time.  They hadn't done crazy nutso stories like every other show was...a little bit but not to the extent of Lilith stalking Shannon and Duncan and then presenting dead Shannon's shrunken head.  Although that wasn't all that far off from the "Mr. Big" storyline with the dwarf/midget guy and the Tom/Margo crazy story.

I know that the daniel story touched on the email phishing scam when daniel got an email from a po4n site...he gave them.his banking info..and all of their money was wiped away..

And he had to tell lily about it..but why it happened...and I think he had a crying spell once he told lily about it..but I can't recall after that what happened..I think Amber played a part in it as well.

This shît always cracked me up for the same reasons. Like, what are they gonna do? Open on shots of Michael Graziadei's hand rummaging in his pocket?

Many, many things during the  mid90-s2004 Days especially when JER around. What the hell was up with that parrot guy?

 

Passions- Pretty much the whole series. The Vincent/Vallery story where an intersex person raped their father while making their mother listen and then becoming pregnant with father's baby...oh, and had been sleeping with their uncle.

 

B&B- Anything to do with Liam after his first 6 months.

OLTL: the ridiculous story about Elliot Durbin's attempts at brainwashing Viki into shooting Kevin.  (At least, I think that's how it went down?)

God rest his soul, but JER had issues.
