Of course, you're leaving as...@Desi Dammit!!! Of course, you're leaving as I'm coming. Boo on that. We could have misbehaved together! Very nice thought about Deanna and James! OMG...I saw "KK" and panicked! Ah! Agreed...Starr and James have been together for one hot minute and then this shit. I hate that OLTL doesn't let anyone be happy...ever! OMG who KNOWS how Brad is a bully. He is such a little jackass. LOL!!!! Flove the Christmas Story comparison. Spot on! Never thought of it! I don't see why anyone would choose Echo over Vicki and I won't accept it. OMG...fab idea with the tea party. I'd love to see what Sierra Rose looks like now. There has to be more to the Matthew story. I don't buy for one minute she left his ass.<br /><br />@Akesha You're right about the phone. This little girl is not technologically savvy. Ross said the same thing. Keep me in check!<br /><br />@snappydaze The show was PHENOM this week! Eh..Friday was okay but overall...FABU! Vicki ALWAYS blows me away but she really did this week. I see what you mean about the alters. However, I still need Nikki to make a brief appearance to burn down the Minuteman and Serenity Springs. Then, she can leave and Queen V can return. I do love Jean Randolph though. Hmmmm. FF and JPL did a great job this week and I NEVER give FF compliments. She did her best acting to date in my opinion. Good on her! She came across as a believable mother whose heart was breaking and she was scared. JPL did the same thing. KA and KDP need to have more scenes like that. They rarely do anymore. I miss convos like that. I flove Clint because he is a badass. However, I do believe he set all this shit in motion. Bo and Nora are my favorites so of course I thought their stuff was great. EA did a PHENOM job, as well. Love him. OLTL was fab this week and here is hoping it is again this week!Mary-Ellahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18313169843736631187noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8802392282294441998.post-54169917654462038942011-04-09T16:15:41.867-05:002011-04-09T16:15:41.867-05:00So, here I was going along just watching the show ...So, here I was going along just watching the show cuz my favorite Queen V was on and I've been waiting for her to find out about Chuckles the Cheating SOB and then this week just smacked me in the face. Oh yeah! This is what my favorite soap is like!! I loved, loved,loved the show. I swear! Any of the first four shows could win us an Emmy. Drama! Emotion! Amazing acting! And!! Amazing writing! Our beloved vets just knocked it out of the ball park. Bravo!<br /><br />Viki was all shades of awesome and once again Erika blew me away. From Viki's barely controlled (I mean she was visibly shaking) anger to dejection, to devastation and finally to ice cold determination. Oh, Snap! The way she whirled around and told Echo the difference in her dumping Rex and Jared dying. Holy Cow! The Queen is scary!! I do wish they would bring out an alter to help Viki it should be Tori - who incidently burned down Llanfair the last time she was out- cuz she is the revenge alter OR Jean because she is the original ice cold gatekeeper. She really doesn't need Niki but I guess with all the drama, stress (and really, how is all this on her heart) it's understandable if she isn't quite strong enough mentally and emotionally to fight off Niki. It's gonna be fun if Niki comes out because I find Niki to be such a hoot.<br /><br />As much as Erika and Viki blew me away. I wasn't really surprised by her. I expect her to blow me way. The couple that so totally blew me away and left me with my jaw wide open was Farah Fath and JPL. Holy Cow! Who knew Rex and Gigi could make me cry? Not me. Not in a million years. And, let's not forget the little dude who plays Shane. I got chills from a few times. I gasped out loud and echo'd Gigi's scream cuz I thought he jumped! This is such awesome soap and I hope, really hope our ratings go through the roof.<br /><br />And, you know who else got to me? Blair. I felt Kassie, and I felt Blair's frustration, disbelief and sheer fright over the man her son was turning into. KA and KdP were awesome. <br /><br />And, then the whole Bo/Nora/Matthew/Clint (okay, I'm sorry but I flove Clint. He is such a bad ass. I find him sexy.) But, the drama with Bo/Nora realizing that it was Matty who Clint was protecting was heartbreaking. Dang. Nora got a major case of DeJaVu here!! <br /><br />Seriously...this week was what separates OL from the rest of the pack. Good family drama dealing with things that are true to life and what most of us can relate too. I can't wait for Monday!SnappyDazehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13410431000004105768noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8802392282294441998.post-50759520219334530532011-04-08T18:57:40.547-05:002011-04-08T18:57:40.547-05:00@Desi On Star and Jack... We always have seen Bla...@Desi On Star and Jack... We always have seen Blair and Todd spend a LOT of time with Starr and now Danyella. We rarely see them with Jack and Sam. jack and Sam seem to be with Addie most of the time. <br /><br />Just think about how often Blair has been in a coma, or kidnapped, or trapped and Todd and Blair have been looking for a kidnapped Starr or DanYELLA or just dealing with anything besides Jack or Sam. <br /><br />I can fathom Charlie choosing Echo over Vicki because Charlie doesn't have good sense. He is weak, and he probably doesn't feel worthy of Vicki, (which I agree with him, he isn't). Vicki is far from perfect as Echo claimed... but what makes her appear perfect is how hard she goes out of her way to make the right choice and to do what is right by everyone else. I hope she can keep (Nikki, Jean, Tori and company) at bay. When Vicki spoke to Echo... she was not the VIcki we are used to seeing, which I liked! She seems so well integrated, and has gone through so much that I am wondering what would have to happen to make Nikki resurface if the show decided she should come back.<br /><br />I think there is more to the Matthew story. I think Matthew did shoot him, but we will find out that is not what caused him to die and/or that isn't what finished the job... someone else was involved; I think it was significant that Nora pointed out that Matthew said the door was locked yet she was able to unlock it... maybe not, but I am holding out hope... I refuse to believe they would ruin Bo and Nora's family like that.<br /><br />@All with the phone... it wasn't that hard for me to believe that Blair's picture would show on Gigi's phone. I don't think Gigi would have put it in there, but she may have an app that did it based on what information Blair had on the net.

I’...You’re coming to Florida, just as I’m leaving!<br /><br />I’m sure Deanna is going to say that she broke up with James to protect him because his crazy father was being threatening and that she never stopped loving him. Blah. It took FOREVER for James and Starr to get together, and then this chick shows up? Maybe she can hook up with Christian since he hasn’t been seen since that awful KK fiasco. <br /><br />How is it possible that Brad is a bully? He kinda reminds me of the little sidekick from “A Christmas Story”—does anyone really believe that kids would be scared of someone like that? And it seems like he is the one pulling the strings more than Jack is. He’s the one who wanted to do drugs and everything. Also, weren’t these kids around when Matthew was being bullied? He did just call her Density after all. Didn’t they see how that turned out? And they are still acting like this?<br /><br />Granted, Starr did get pregnant in high school, but she had the same parents growing up that Jack did. How is it possible that she turned out so normal if they are going to blame this whole thing on having Todd for a father?<br /><br />I still can’t fathom that anyone would choose Echo over Vicki.<br /><br />Maybe crazy Marty picked up Hope, and they are having a tea party with Sierra Rose?<br /><br />There is still a possibility that Matthew made that story up to cover for Nora so that Clint would cover for him. He knew that Clint would never cover for Nora. That’s the only explanation of the holes I could think of. I don’t think Nora would really just leave Matthew there.Desihttp://facebook.com/desilyndesignsnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8802392282294441998.post-70830538562218734492011-04-08T12:32:04.241-05:002011-04-08T12:32:04.241-05:00@YoSammity OMG I just peed on myself a little at ...@YoSammity OMG I just peed on myself a little at work!

So...Des/Nora scene alone for first time since then and scenes in Bo and Nora's bedroom. Hmmm. Thanks!<br /><br />@cri*cr You are so funny! I read to Ross that you were singing "you devious, selfish whore" and having margs...loved it. Even better you singing it maniacally. vicki is PHENOM. Oh, I think Tess pushes her over the edge. Blair was better on this episode than the previous one. I need her to go all kinds of cray cray on Jack's ass. ASAP! Anxious for some RH/KDP scenes...mmmm!<br /><br />@anonymous I hope darling Bo focuses on his fam for the next few months. I have a feeling he will. I'm soooo looking forward to it! OMG...who effing knew they had a bedroom?! I can't believe they even sat on the damn thing together. Progress writers! Vicki's the shit. And, Blair was better in the mother dept. on this episode. So thumbs up.<br /><br />@Akesha It's my pleasure to post, so you are quite welcome! You're right about the parallels. I FLOVED all those motherly scenes. Need more of that! OLTL has been on fire lately. OMG...I will prostitute myself to anyone if I knew NuJack would return! AH!

They have been way overdone. Rex is my age and the idea that he HAS to have a daddy figure is just annoying and immature. I want to see Bo hug Matthew and show compassion, something we haven't seen for months. I hope we see more of Bo and Nora's bedroom. I don't believe for a minute that Nora walked away and left Matthew there.<br />Viki continues to be awesome.<br />I feel for Blair because I do think she's a good mother, as much as this show allows.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8802392282294441998.post-55537807411535664172011-04-08T01:23:46.059-05:002011-04-08T01:23:46.059-05:00Yup - an awesome week on OLTL it has been. I was ...Yup - an awesome week on OLTL it has been. I was dancing around the house with my pups and a margarita tonight singing "you're a devious selfish WHORE" over and over again, giggling maniacally. The doggies were totally digging it.<br /><br />It ssems to me Vicki doesn't really need her alters at this point - she seems fully in touch with the crap going down in her life and doesn't seem to be hiding in repression whatsoever. Lord I cannot BELIEVE what is coming out of her mouth this week! I love it!!<br /><br />I wonder what the heck it is that is going to push her over the edge into being Nicki at this point? What more could possibly happen to our blond-bobbed heroine??<br /><br />Blair really needs to get medieval on Jack's ass, but you're right (from your post yesterday) - she just doesn't seem to really have it in her. I personally think it is an acting choice made by KDP - it was really bothering me as well how completely non-threatening she was coming off, even with the face slap. (The slap in itself is a weak move - she should have been able to respond with a look far more effectively. I am firmly in the "violence begets violence" camp - that was a lame weak move on Blair's part. Though honestly I really wanted to slap the shit out of him myself! Mosty for his stilted, disconnected and unimaginative delivery of his diologue.

Gosh, that is beyond terrible. :( Boo. <br />Floved the Nora/Des stuff. Again, have they been in scenes together alone? Praying EA sticks around!!! Fingers crossed. Surely, since he has been phenom! Yeah...Vicki is the shit. Enough said. UGH....Blair/Brad! HE IS TERRIBLE!!!!! Ugh. Agreed...Rex has been good the last couple of shows. I need Bo to really focus on his family over the next few weeks/months. The Bo/Rex thing is nice, but the writers have taken it too far. LOL...I know some people think I am crazy about Deanna's shirt, but I think not everyone knows about the KOA campsite sign. haha!

(My car was stolen).<br /><br />Loved Nora/Destiny - Their scenes were so sweet. Seeing them together makes me think the character Matthew isn't going anywhere, but not seeing Eddie Alderson still makes me fear a recast.<br /><br />Loved Vicki as always. I loved when she schooled Echo about losing a child versus leaving a child.<br /><br />Loved Blair and Brad - Hysterical! Can't stand the little dweeb.<br /><br />Rex has been good the last couple of shows, though I still find myself annoyed that they focus more on his and Bo's relationship than on Bo and Matthew's relationship.<br /><br />And ME, your comments about Deanna's shirt crack me up, but they are so hilarious and on point.<br /><br />All in all good show, fantastic blog.Kendallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03848685331338980313noreply@blogger.com
