This is just sort of an
update column about my week on OLTL. Guys, it has been so great!
Viki is as wonderful as I
remember her. I had a blast as she teased Dorian pretending that she
was going to try and date David. It was absolutely perfect when she
smiled to herself after Dorian left and scolded herself “Bad Viki.”
David is so adorable. I love
his humor and his charm and I do believe he belongs with Dorian. They
are indeed soul mates and they seem to bring out the best in one
another. They are a fun pair, always scheming and planning, and
despite their best efforts they are in love.
Watching OLTL has brought me
the humor that has been missing from GH for so long. I have found
that I like to laugh with my characters just as much as I like to cry
with them.
I cried with Antonio. I felt
his pain as he cried over his daughter. I believe he is a man
distraught. I am also shocked that any judge would give a child to
the likes of RJ but it may be a different soap, yet I’ll keep in mind
it is the same network.
Nora must be OLTL’s
equivalent of Alexis. I always loved Nora but back in the day she was
a much smarter and stronger woman. Since it is a soap and requires
the drama of a public outing I understand why she had to push Bo to
make announcements in the open. Except recalling sensible Nora, who
was indeed intelligent I am surprised she didn’t know better than to
push the issue. It reminded me very much of the character
assassination of Alexis on GH. Taking once smart, savvy and
independent women and turning them to mush.
Welcome Dr. Spencer. He
definitely arrived with a bang. He showed up and made the Hotel
concierge go all a-flutter. I am surprised no one has ever asked him
to play Superman. I so see a resemblance. My feeling on the actor
that portrays Todd are currently mixed and my feelings for Blair have
always been mixed too, but I saw instant chemistry between Blair and
the good Doctor. Nothing makes a woman more grateful that saving her
child. It will be interesting to see what kind of trouble Spencer
brings to town.
Over on GH all the blonde is
blinding me. There are blondes running amuck all over the place. Too
bad the first person I saw JenCarly have chemistry with is soon to be
leaving PC, Rachel.
I know I said I quit but I
can’t help it. GH has been a part of my life for so long that I still
have to tape it and make sure I don’t miss anything. I do however
watch mostly in FF.
I did however enjoy the
scenes of Carly trying once again to sabotage Courtney and Jax and
getting so caught in the process. Really Carly, what kind of friend
are you?
What in the world make Reese
and Ric think they are going to get away with keeping their sordid
little secret? Ric knows by now he has never successfully kept a
secret in Port Charles. Reese at least only just got there and maybe
doesn’t fully comprehend the fact that there are no secrets among the
residents. If there is something that somebody does NOT know, Emily
or Liz will be sure to rectify that situation.
Here’s
to what I hope is a great week of soaps.
